Shoutout to the anime club at my old high school in Springfield
This past Tuesday I dug out my old laptop from high school and found a folder full of our anime club's weekly discussion notes. We had this one week back in 2012 where we tried to watch and talk about the first three episodes of 'Steins;Gate' in a single meeting. It was a total mess! Half the club was lost on the time travel rules, the other half was just quoting Okabe's mad scientist laugh, and our club president spent the whole hour drawing a timeline on the whiteboard that looked like spaghetti. What made it stand out was how we all came back the next week with pages of our own notes and theories, and we actually had a focused, awesome talk. It taught me that sometimes you need a chaotic, bad discussion to figure out how to have a good one. Has anyone else had a club or group discussion that started rough but got way better?
