Become an Iron Chef at Mentor Library's Anime Club

Perhaps, by now, you're familiar with our Anime Club.

If not, they're pretty awesome.

They're a group of teens who get together once a month at the library to watch anime, make duct tape swords, compete in Ramen-eating contests and paint kokeshi. They often do this while wearing costumes.

Like I said -- awesome.

Their next meeting is from 2 to 4 p.m. August 24 at our Main Branch. They'll be watching anime and making candy sushi. (Hopefully, they're better at it than some of our Iron Chefs.)

If you want to join in on the fun, you can sign up for Anime Club on the Mentor Public Library's website.

P.S. By the way, if you don't know what Meredith and Amy are spoofing in the video, here's some of the source material. (Our chairman should have worn a robe too. That would have been cooler.)
