Anime Watch Parties and Game Nights
Mainegaka LLC hosts one-time and special events for groups and individuals in Portland
You sign up for an anime watch party, trivia night, or creative gathering at Mainegaka LLC in Portland and show up knowing the theme, start time, and seating limit. Events bring together people who want more than solo reading time, whether you attend with friends or meet new people who share the same interests.
Programming rotates between anime screenings, game nights, trivia competitions, and creative sessions where guests draw, discuss, or collaborate on projects tied to manga or anime culture. Limited capacity keeps the space comfortable and interactive, so early sign-ups fill most events before the week of the gathering. Snacks and drinks are available during all events just like they are during lounge hours.

What Happens at a Scheduled Event
You arrive at the scheduled start time in Portland, check in, and join the group already gathering in the event space. Staff introduce the theme, go over the format, and start the activity whether that means cueing up an episode, dealing trivia cards, or setting up tables for a creative session.

After the event starts, you participate at your own comfort level. Some guests talk through every scene during a watch party, while others stay quiet and react afterward. Trivia nights reward knowledge of specific series, studios, or voice actors. Game nights and creative gatherings let you collaborate or compete depending on the format.
Events usually run between one and three hours depending on the theme and activity. You can grab snacks or drinks during breaks or while the event is running. Seating is arranged to keep sightlines clear for screenings and table access easy for games or drawing sessions. Events do not overlap with open lounge hours, so the space is fully dedicated to the scheduled activity.
