So you think you're smarter than a 5th grader that fights
evil by moonlight, & wins love & peace by daylight? Ok....maybe
that was a bit of an imposing task, but challenging other TAKII faithful in endless battles
of wit & knowledge is something we all can truly enjoy. "TAKII Trivia Centrale" features a never-ending amount of quiz
questions in a plethora of categories to stimulate you mind, body,
& soul as a part of Day 1 programming for TAKII 6 on (Asian Multimedia
Entertainment NetworkAMEN). As
time goes by, more nuggets of trivia will be added, as will other
innovative features we'll be continuously working on. Add some
muscle to that brain of yours & visit "TAKII Trivia Centrale" today! (LEARN
SOMETHING -- COME TO A TLO MEETING) (AMEN)

A stunning addition to TAKII
6's online programming comes in the form of our seasonal "AMV Battle Royale"! AMV hobbyists & newbies alike will
get a chance to produce their version of the perfect fusion of Asian
video clips & a funky soundtrack to go with it & get it judged
by TAKII fans worldwide. People can enter
their masterpieces in the following categories:
- Most Extreme

- VIDEO: It must
consist of a majority of Asian-themed visual entertainment (aka your
typical AMV, but better)

(^_^)
In tandem with Asian
Multimedia Entertainment Network (AMEN)'s audio offerings, we bring
you unparalleled visual virtuosity with "TLO Video Lounge PLUS". Industry
programming will be on tap, as will some clips from the "TAKII COMPLETE Video Archive" &
original features as produced by you, the TAKII fans, through your
submissions via "AMV Battle Royale"

available for your pleasure on-demand, 24/7, during TAKII 6 weekend! It's never been so
sweet to be so lazy -- enjoy!! ("VIDEO LOUNGE PLUS" ROLL CALL) (AMEN)
DAY 2
Festivities (@ The rotunda)
(#1+) (***) For
those of you who don't know what "cosplaying" is, it's the
act of dressing up as your favorite character/personality from anime,
manga, TV, movies, or otherwise. Others take it to a whole new level in
actually sounding & acting like their namesakes. If any of this
sounds like you, then "Cosplay
Battle Royale" is for
you! Since TAKII 3,
our cosplay offerings have continued to shock & awe TAKII enthusiasts
to new heights each & every season, with TAKII 6 not being any different.
Along with our time-tested classics, we will be adding some new festivities for this season's "Cosplay Battle Royale", which will include you having the opportunity to win championships & prizes in the following:

A TAKII original
festivity, "Otaku
Jeopardy" is proudly
brought to you by West Chester, PA's own, The Lost Otakus
(TLO)
leadership team of
Annie & Dan Rubel! While it may follow the same basic format of the
original Jeopardy game we all know & love, there will be quite a
few twists & turns in the game that no one will wanna miss. The audience will be split into
multiple
teams, with each team member taking turns choosing their category of
choice & answering the question at hand. With over an hour's worth
of questions
from multiple categories spanning the genres of Asian Music &
Anime, will YOUR team
be the last ones standing & receive "Otaku Jeopardy"'s highly
sought-after prize? ...."IT'S TIME TO PLAY THE GAME!!" (CRAZY "OTAKU JEOPARDY" MOMENTS FROM TAKII 5)
(#1-) Based off of its namesake
originator Family Feud, TAKII 6's
version will pit 2 families (groups people will be split into) against
each other, taking turns in
correctly guessing the top responses to a particular Asian-related
survey question (as taken by members of TAKII's club sponsor, The Lost Otakus (TLO)). To begin, a member of each family
will come to the center, with the game show host asking the 1st
question of the round. Participants are asked not to speak
out of turn & to adhere to any time restrictions given.
The order of play will be determined by who is able to guess the higher-ranked response. That family will, in turn, have the chance to guess what the rest of the responses are (& be able to conference with their own family). 3 incorrect responses in a round will result in the opposite family getting a shot at the board. If that family is able to guess 1 correct response after the other family has striked out, the points accumulated go to them. In the final round of play, each family will be asked to select a secret bonus card & a member to guess at correct responses to the last survey question. Afterwards, each family will reveal their bonus cards & the one with the most points at the end will be declared the "Fusion Festival Family Feud" Champions! (WANNA GET SURVEYED? COME TO A TLO MEETING!)

(#1-) TAKII
6 proudly presents to you our version of a classic game called "Match Game
~Unholy Unions~"! Our
guests & performers for
this season of TAKII will be seated across the stage (as
celebrity panelists), with the gameshow host selecting 1 audience
member at a time & reading an unfinished, Asian-themed, random
statement. Each celebrity panelist will
then be given a few seconds to jot down on their notepads how they
would finish it, after which the selected audience member
will then be asked to give their own answer. For each
celebrity's answer that matched that of the audience
member, that participant will receive points.
The one who ends up racking up the most points when all is said &
done will be declared the "Match Game
~Unholy Unions~" Champ! (A LOOK BACK: MATCH GAME)
(^_^)
At The Lost Otakus (TLO)
meetings every month, we have what are called "fixed titles" (shows we
watch each meeting until the end of the series) & "random picks"
(random music videos or episodes of obscure, amazing, or even unsavory
Anime). Some of the best that
has been seen, or has yet to be shown, will be coming to TAKII 6 in
the form of the "TLO Video Lounge"! We will do our best to
give you the broadest line-up around of things to see in both
subtitled
& dubbed format. All ages,
backgrounds, & interests will
be
represented; whether that is a good thing or a bad thing remains
to be seen (LOL). ("VIDEO LOUNGE" ROLL CALL)
(^_^)
TAKII
"Wild Card" is the
only event in TAKII
history that will actually take
place after the weekend-long
fusion festival ends. It will
be one
event so spectacular, so immense, so undeniably deserving of its place
in otaku history books worldwide, that you will have to stick around TAKII 6
~NintenDecision 2008~
to
check it out! It could be a sushi buffet, another
special guest, or....your mom!? Psyche, just kidding (about
your mom ^_^), but we assure you that it will revolve around the
principles on which TAKII
promotes & exemplifies. Each season of TAKII
will reign in a different TAKII "Wild
Card"
event. Seeing is truly believing ^_^. (A "WILD CARD"
