This is a one-off, special 9/11 edition of Anime Night by popular demand. It’s the long-awaited screening of the fifth and six Project A-ko movies, the final entries in the series, which transplant the characters into a completely new setting and otherwise have nothing to do with the previous installments. They are also not as well-regarded as the original four, but god damn it, we’re not leaving them unwatched. I expect, at least, that chicks will continue to rock.
We’ll start at 9PM EST on Hextube, right here: https://live.hexbear.net/c/movies
Be there, comrades!

- Someone struggles to breathe.
- Kidnapping.
- Bath scene.
- Flashing lights.

If we have a "Hextube" we should really bank on it and have it be a competitor to YouTube and TikTok.
...I'm kinda fucking serious.
We could grow stuff like this on the side and see if they catch on.
