We're getting excited for next Saturday's (the 11th) annual Anime and Manga Festival for teens here at the Iowa City Public Library! This year we'll be showing :
- Trigun
- Fairy Tail
- Shattered Angels
There will be lots of food, including candy sushi (of course). This year we're super happy to have the help of some of the stylists from local G-Spot Hair Design who will be here to help you craft Anime Hair! So come in cosplay dress!

I haven't owned a video game console since the original Nintendo, seeing clips of Breath of the Wild online made me think it was time to explore the Nintendo Switch. It didn't take long to understand how to manipulate the controller (so many more buttons!) and the game does a great job introducing you to game mechanics and trains you as you play. It's fun to battle monsters but just as enjoyable is wandering around the fantasy landscape climbing trees, foraging mushrooms, and picking up rocks to see what's underneath. -Jason
