Kotatsu’s official Aberystwyth programme confirms a Japanese-animation weekend running October 16–18. Akira opens the festival on Friday at 5.30pm, followed by screenings across Saturday and Sunday at Aberystwyth Arts Centre. Saturday brings Kiki’s Delivery Service at 11am, 100 M at 1.30pm and All You Need Is Kill at

4pm after the raffle. Sunday pairs The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes at 2pm with Angel’s Egg following the 3.45pm raffle. The organiser says films are in Japanese with English subtitles unless otherwise stated. Its programme provides ticket links and the venue box-office number, letting visitors plan around

individual screenings rather than treating the weekend as one continuous session. Read the official source. Image: MASH ROOM / AKIRA COMMITTEE; Akira promotional still supplied by Kotatsu Festival.
