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.
For more on what an average screening at POWA looks like, click “Screenings” in the Quick Links box below.
Location: Joondalup Library, Downstairs Meeting Room
POWA invites all those interested in a bit of boardy fun to the library on Saturday, 14th February, and join the group for some dice rolling, card flipping, rules reading, rules forgetting, rules lawyering goodness!
POWA is planning a few of these sort of events over the 2026 committee year, but to start us off, we are keeping it simple: Board Games.
Cards, dice, boards, if its something you can bring along, bring it! There is no structure to this event, so long as it involves enjoying a game with the group.
That said, if you are planning on bringing something you consider a bit more involved than the average board game – whatever that might be – drop by the Discord and start a discussion about it! Get people interested, maybe share the rules or a tutorial, and let people know that you’re bringing it.
Entry to this event will be free. POWA will also not be selling food or drink at this event – while the library does offer water bubblers and have vending machines, if you seek something a bit more tasty or filling, feel free to run for lunch!
And POWA will also be screening the day after – February 15th – so make sure to keep that on your schedules as well.
We hope to see you there!

Back to our regular screening schedule after last week’s seasonal preview.
Last time we had a go at our lineup, it was all pretty straight forward for us. We only had one event of note – our Fantasy series, “Frieren: Beyond Journeys End” reached its 16th episode and a vote for its continuation, which it passed.
This time around there’s a bit more of the same, with just one show up for vote.; our Mature, Horror & Thriller series “Vinland Saga: Season 2” reaches its second, episode 8, vote.
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!

The latest film from the director of films like “Summer Wars” and “Belle”, Mamoru Hosoda, is coming to cinema! POWA was polled, and a time and space chosen:
Hoyts Cinema Warwick, and the 6:30pm session this coming Friday, the 6th of February.
It has been a while since POWA has attended an outing to the Warwick Cinema, so make sure you double check your route and don’t get lost!
Do remember that POWA cannot promise that there will be seats available in the cinema for this session, so it is recommended that if you are concerned, you either show up early to get your ticket or book one in advance. It is also recommended that you show up to the cinema early enough to find the group, buy your ticket and get whatever snack bar accoutrements you need to equip yourself with before the film starts – no one is going to be waiting for you outside if you’re late!
Naturally, there will almost certainly be people organising meeting up or discussing the film on Discord before and during the event – so keep an eye on that if you want to get in on the topics!
“A medieval princess on a quest to avenge her father’s death awakens in a realm between life and death, where she encounters an idealistic young man from the present day who shows her the possibility of a future free of bitterness and rage.”
We hope to see you there!
