What is the Watercooler?
It's a haven in the middle of a harsh, 9-to-5 world. A place where you can gather with your fellow human beings and bond over a paper cup full of cool refreshment.
All sorts of randomness is welcome here. Post pictures, videos, special Chat information, or just discuss news and current events.

Meet your fellow otaku and enjoy some anime at the weekly Anime Club in the Community Chat.
What's the Anime Club?
The Anime Club is a weekly room in theOtaku's community chat where we meet to have fun laughing, crying, heckling, and spazzing together while watching a few episodes of anime. The anime will most likely be available on streaming sites since we're mainly going to stick to unlicensed shows. I hope the Anime Club will be a good opportunity for people to find new series and genres that they enjoy and for series to gather support for if/when they're licensed.
What are you watching?
We're trying a new format where we'll watch episodes from two different shows each night. I hope people will stick around for both but, if one of the series just isn't your thing, feel free to only drop in for the other.
The first show is Library War, a 12 episode action/comedy series. It seems similar to Full Metal Panic! but with less mecha and more books. Click here to watch its opening.
The second show is Spice and Wolf, a 13 episode fantasy/drama series. It's somewhat slow-paced and doesn't have much action, instead focusing on the characters' interweaving relationships and ways of getting by in life. Click here to watch its opening.
When are the next episodes?
We'll be watching Library War ep11-12 + special / Spice and Wolf ep12-13 on Saturday, December 27, at 10:00 PM Eastern Time (7:00 PM Pacific). (The Library War DVD special was recently released and may not be on streaming sites yet. I recommend downloading it or looking for a streaming site with it before the chat starts.) The chat room will open a half hour early, around 9:30 PM Eastern, and the episodes will last about two hours altogether. We hope to see you there!

What anime is next?
The Anime Club after this next one happens to be on my birthday, so I may not even be around for the start of the next series... Anyway, leave a comment with what you'd like to see next and also let me know whether you'd like to keep the two shows per week format. Below are the current suggestions:
Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight!, Hatenkou Yuugi, Kaiba, Kurenai, Lovely Complex, Minami-ke: Okawari, Sumomomo Momomo, Zoku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
