SLAM!! - Salt Lake Anime & Manga Club

Hello friends! After nearly 6 six years, I am closing this meetup page! Since we introduced the Discord in 2019, we have seen much more consistent engagement and activity on that platform. We also found it a challenge to cross-post events from Discord to Meetup, as the Discord events tend to be smaller, more frequent, and more spontaneous, necessitating a quick RSVP system and a responsive and reliable membership base. Plus, we love to chat casually between meetups and get to know each other! Meetup just doesn't tend to facilitate or encourage that level of engagement.
That being said, the group is still going strong! Please join us on our Discord to keep the party going! We use roles to ping you for whatever type of event you'd like to join! https://discord.gg/Mz6pXdRARh

While streaming, please chat/communicate via the #movie theater channel in the Discord. (Discord link: https://discord.gg/Mz6pXdRARh)

Boy's Love (BL)/yaoi is a subgenre of Asian animation, film, art, or literature that explores LGBT+ (usually gay male) stories and romance.

The Show:
Link Click (2021, bilibili, BeDream): Using superpowers to enter their clientele's photos one by one, Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang take their work seriously at "Time Photo Studio," a small photography shop set in the backdrop of a modern metropolis. Each job can be full of danger, but nothing is more important than fulfilling every order, no matter the scale…or peril involved!

About SLAM:

• We watch with original audio and English subtitles.
• Food, chatting, discussing Japanese culture, and making new friends is highly encouraged! An atmosphere of acceptance, respect, and civility is required.
• We do many other things besides watch anime! We hike, go to dinner, watch movies, have potlucks, and much more! Check out our very active discord for the latest discussion on events, just chatting, and for other events that don't make it to MeetUp. 🤫 https://discord.gg/Mz6pXdRARh
