SAMS 2010


Swinburne Anime & Manga Society (SAMS) was created in September 2006 to provide Swinburne students with means to share and enjoy the passion for Anime and Manga, including related cultural fields, hobbies and activities deemed fit by the Club, together with their peers. E.g., Cosplay.
  • Anime‘ is defined as animation using distinctive characteristics, style and background aesthetics originating from Japan

The objectives of SAMS are to:

  1. Build up a healthy interest towards anime and manga.
  2. Encourage the appreciation of anime and manga as a form of art and literature.
  3. Correct any misconception towards anime and manga.
  4. Expose members to the Japanese language, lifestyle, culture and traditions.
