looking for active gaming/anime clubs on MMC this Fall

hi! i am 20F, officially transferring to FIUs MMC campus in Fall as a transfer student hailing from the Florida panhandle :) i’m majoring in Interdisciplinary Studies for a semester and then pivoting into Mechanical Engineering. i expect to stick around for about 2.5 years.

i’m primarily inquiring about any active clubs i can look into to socialize and make some friends to hang out with regularly. ideally i can eventually form or enter a close knit friend group with people that share similar values and interests!

a bit about myself:
- majorly into anime/manga (Lain, Frieren, Chainsaw Man, Apothecary Diaries, Madoka Magica, and more) and casual video games (Genshin, Elden Ring, RoR2, Ultrakill, etc). i do love art but i’m not currently dabbling in it like i used to. also somewhat into PC building
- strongly prefer a laid-back, accepting culture as i’m neurodivergent and of the LGBTQ+ community. (i am really ideologically progressive all around)
- i primarily chat via Discord but i do use Instagram as well
- i don’t have ANY roommates as i’ll be moved into a studio apartment and i am also car-less so traveling far outside of MMC for social hotspots isn’t feasible

i see many clubs/orgs on Panther Connect but i’m honestly unsure which ones have been disbanded, or are generally inactive, if any. i’m also admittedly not a party person so i don’t expect to find friends through that outlet :(

does anyone have any suggestions for active clubs that could be suited for my hobbies and preferences?
also can consider this a “callout for friends” post just DM me and maybe we can connect! if you might lead any clubs and are recruiting for the Fall semester feel free to DM me a Discord link too!
