Angels come in all shapes and sizes, ranging from the Lovely Angels known as the Dirty Pair and the mischievous Strawberry angels to the angelic blue-haired baby Lafiel and the everyday angels in disguise in Human Crossing and Rumiko Takahashi Anthology. In our recurring line-up, we will also see more of the lovely Lia D'Eon, Major from Section 9, Servant Saber, and electromagnetic Chinami Ebihara.
As always, many thanks to the Santa Clara City Library for hosting our meetings. This month, we're in the Cedar room, which is the one closer to the restrooms.
All times are approximate, so try to be early!
