Senpai ry

Senpai is organizing an anime-themed sitz party after a very long break on 26.4.. A Sitz party is a traditional academic celebration, an important part of which are songs. During the evening, a three-course menu, three shots and two mild drinks are served. Participants are also allowed and even encouraged to bring their own drinks. The sitz party can also be attended alcohol-free.
The dress code is smart casual. The theme of the sitz party is nostalgia, so if you want you can also dress according to the theme, for example a cosplay.

The party starts at 18:00 in Osakuntasali (Rehtorinpellonkatu 4-6 B) but make sure to arrive by 17:45 so the party can get started on time.

What’s the daily life of a light novel author like? Dodging deadlines, seeking inspirations and playing board games it seems. Everyone’s got their own style and approach. There’s creative folks, technically talented ones and in the case of our protagonist; obsessed fanatics.

The Science Fiction Culture Cabinet at The University of Turku (a.k.a. Tutka) has invited Senpai to a collaboration event, where we’ll get to see a couple very different sci-fi animations.

Terrakoti doors open at 14:00 and at 15:00 the watch party starts with Æon Flux [R15]. Look forward to a collection of surreal avant-garde animations about a dystopian future. This series is 90s biopunk, so take that as a form of content warning…

Afterwards at 17:00 the evening continues with the money pit anime sci-fi movie Ouritsu Uchuugun: Honneamise no Tsubasa. Despite being originally divisive, it has nonetheless garnered a cult classic status over the years. Our protagonist sets out to become the first astronaut in the setting’s fantasy world.

Welcome to Senpai’s annual spring general meeting of 2025! At the meeting we will present the previous year’s annual report and financial statements as well as the statement of the auditor. Thereafter, the meeting will decide on the approval of the financial statements and discharge of the previous year’s Board. More information about the meeting will be sent later via email to all Senpai members.

After the spring meeting, Senpai will lighten the bureaucratic mood by watching The Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant Used to Be Archenemies. What happens when a lieutenant of an evil organization falls in love with his magical girl opponent? This Romeo & Juliet comedy doesn’t miss a beat as the boundaries between good and evil get blurry.
