POWA is an anime club that meets weekly at the Joondalup Library to watch anime and meet new people of similar hobbies at 1PM Sundays.
POWA is an anime and community club based north of Perth at the Joondalup Library in Meeting Room 1/2.
We screen anime weekly on Sundays from 1PM – 5PM, but also host a variety of additional events and get-togethers.

Back to our regular screening schedule this week after our Second General Meeting and Seasonal Preview the weekend before – thanks to those who came along to those events, by the by!
This week brings us a few things of note – firstly, our line-up has one vote this weekend; our Comedy series My Senpai is Annoying reaches it first vote at episode 4, so POWA members get to have a say in whether or not it stays as one of our screened series.
Secondly, a major notice here; due to a Joondalup Motoring Festival booking out the library the weekend after this screening, and OzComicCon being the weekend after that, POWA will not have screenings on the weekends of 5th of May and 12th of May. This isn’t a hiatus or anything; things have just lined up that way. There will be a film release of the Rascal Does Not Dream franchise over this break – its out on the 9th – so POWA will be making an outing to that during this period, so please keep an eye on our socials for the details about that!
Thirdly and finally, as discussed during the General Meeting last weekend, POWA is reverting the prices of entry to our events back to the level that they were prior to the first General Meeting of 2024 – entry will, once again, be $4 for members, and $5 for non-members. Screening cards will be honoured as they were, at the prices paid at these levels. The price changes on select food and drink items will not change at this point.
So: Entry for our weekly screenings is $4 for members and $5 for guests – However, your first time is free! Every entry prior to our break receives a raffle ticket for a weekly prize. We will be in the upstairs meeting rooms of the City of Joondalup Library. Our doors will open at the same time as the library – 1:00PM – and we will start screening at 1:30PM, leaving you time to find the room and settle down with some drinks and snacks.
We hope to see you there!

Winter gives way to spring… or at least it does in the northern hemisphere, and as their planetary axial tilt brings warmer days, it also brings them a whole new season of anime!
And this week brings POWA a preview of some of those now airing anime!
Some of the most visible shows this season range from hugely popular sequels to hugely popular franchises, remakes of series from years in the past, a colourful range of new adaptations, new original works and even a few of the seemingly prerequisite fantasy Isekais.
After this screening, too, the seasonal preview continues with POWA’s After Party! Shows that we couldn’t fit in the screenings lineup for whatever reason will get a chance to appear on our screens at home with a continued watchalong, hosted on POWA’s Discord – starting at around 6pm.

Cinema time once again as POWA makes an outing to catch “Spy X Family Code: White” on the big screen!
POWA’s community was polled on what session to catch, and POWA picked the Saturday 20th, 6:30pm session at Event Cinemas Innaloo!
As always, though the movie will start at 6:30pm, it is highly recommended that you arrive early enough to get everything in order – that is, to find the group, buy your ticket, any snacks and drinks and so on and so forth.
And, as always, POWA is not able to guarantee a seat in the cinema – either purchase your ticket in advance, arrive earlier than usual to buy one, or run the possibility of arriving to a booked-out cinema.
“He’s a spy. She’s an assassin. Together, Loid and Yor keep their double lives to themselves while pretending to be the perfect family. However, their adopted daughter Anya, a telepath, knows both of their exciting secrets unbeknownst to them. While under the guise of taking his family on a weekend winter getaway, Loid’s attempt to make progress on his current mission Operation Strix proves difficult when Anya mistakenly gets involved and triggers events that threaten world peace!”
We hope to see you there!
