Here’s a charity worth supporting: Scotland Loves Anime. They’re coordinating a festival/series of anime screenings in Scotland and it seems like an absolute age since the last one so these screenings are likely to be popular indeed.
The festival will be taking place from the 8th to 10th of October in Glasgow and the 15th to 17th of October in Edinburgh. The anime will show at the GFT in Glasgow and the fab Film House in Edinburgh.
As it happens, as part of the Discovery Film Festival in Dundee – that’s October 22nd to 26th – will also extend to include anime.
Special guests are expected. Here’s the current timetable.
