JAWS anime played before 2005

Post by anifan »

Kim says that during Past President Leonard Halmrast's time, Baoh was played around its release in 1989, with no subtitles. Also the Dirty Pair TV show had bad fan dubbing. Kim remembers the subtitled Otaku No Video OAV from way back.

Occasionally in the early days, and later with the Oh My Goddess movie, an Amiga computer setup was used to live stream subtitles from the Internet.

The JAWS Xmas parties with special showings were instituted in 1999, because of the supposed Y2K threat. Later on in President Karl Reichert's time, we started having Halloween showings and cosplay. Some members began coming in cosplay in the early 2000s. After Ray Harrison became President, we tried special summer showings.

I joined some time in the late 1990s, and attended meetings off and on as importance and conflicting schedules of other meetings permitted me. I finally quit all those other groups to become dedicated to JAWS. "I don't remember" means I wasn't there to see it.

From Karl's DVD library, posted on the original JAWS website - with help from Kim - here are some of the titles we remember past Presidents Chris Guy and Karl Reichert playing before 2005 and the first posted JAWS schedule. They generally played them within a couple of years after English release. Almost all dates approximate.

NOTE: Some of the shows played at JAWS would have been from Chris Guy's DVDs; these aren't listed here. Also, towards the end, Karl didn't update his library listings on the JAWS website; so some of the shows he played aren't listed - I will post them when I find out. Any help in filling in the shows not listed would be greatly appreciated.
