12 Moments in 2011: In it together

In 2011, a mysterious guy appeared on Twitter and started persuading people to do something strange: Not only did he propose that we get together and watch anime in a synced-up situation with other online pals, but he thought we should get on Skype and actually talk to one another, in our own voices, as it was happening. At the time, he didn’t even have an aniblog, not many folks really knew who vucub_caquix was, and yet I found myself watching Koe De Oshigoto on Skype with him and some other folks from Twit-ville. Of course, that beautiful anime and its live-watches inspired love to blossom (that’s the way I like the story, and I’m sticking to it), and the rest is history.

Now the SCCSAV has expanded to live-watches of shoujo, classics, movies, and of course, Terribad. I rarely am able to participate, as Saturday evenings are my time to get out of the house for the most part and I’m a busy squid, but when I do it’s a riot. We drink, we laugh, we hate on terrible anime, we listen to Loudness, and we enjoy each other’s international accents. After all the dumbfuckery of the Internet and the silly arguments and whatnot that ensue, SCCSAV has been able to distill our fandom to its core and remind some of us why we all hang out on in our virtual cartoon club.

  6. Without this, I would never have been able to finish Gundam SEED and Gundam SEED Destiny. Without this, watching extremely shitty shows is nigh impossible.

    Strange, huh? I guess on the Internet, strangers are just friends waiting to happen.
