Join fellow fans for an afternoon of subtitled Japanese animation. For June, we are meeting on the first Saturday, June 2, just a few days after FanimeCon. In a full-length Full Metal Alchemist movie, Edward and Alphonse Elric will investigate a new kind of alchemy. Plus, don't miss our continuing shows! As always, our showings are free, and there is no need to sign-up, RSVP or agree to a nefarious contract.

14:40 Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos	Edward is given the seemingly simple mission to recapture a renegade alchemist who has broken out of prison, and he travels to Table City to start the search. Before he even arrives within the city walls, however, the situation has completely transformed into a complicated web of connections. There is the alchemist, Julia (the girl he will rescue), the human chimeras persuing them, the bat militia perhaps after Julia, and the government of the city that has been oppressing the Milos -- the people of the valley -- for generations. As they are drawn in, Edward and Al learn from Julia that the Milos and Table City have long histories of seeking the Philosopher's Stone, an alchemical artifact that can grant immortality -- at the cost of other's lives. Edward and Al eventually realize they have arrived at a time when these competing factions are on the verge of obtaining a Philosopher's Stone, despite the perils that its power will bring.

Some shows not appropriate for all audiences, but if the FanimeCon BBS doesn't weird you out, it's probably OK. Presented in and co-sponsored by the Santa
Clara City Central Park Library.
