Episode 850: Spring 2024 Previews #1

This week on Anime Pulse we got even more previews, shaved heads, and community thoughts on the season thus far. Up first Joseph takes the plunge into doing something he has put off for years, and Andrew is relieved that the Anime Pulse website has returned to regular operations. Then in the industry news a new policy for charging foreigners more is debated, Crunchyroll is still the worst, and expressions that hurt others are going away? And lastly in the previews Joseph ends up cringing at a watery goddess after defeating the final boss with an amazing rack on her, and Andrew tries to golf par 8 with kaiju jellyfish at night.

This week on VGP, we’re back! Kind of! We start off with side notes of why all the shows have been on hiatus for the last month, before diving into the regular news where we discuss Microsoft entering into it’s villain arc, Sony’s questionable move of making its steam games need to be linked to a PSN account, Poppy Playtime getting a movie adaptation, and Starfield continuing to disappoint! After the news we go over the Discord Discussions, and finish off with talk of anime! All this and more up next on VGP 404!! Music Intro – Tetris A Theme Guitar Cover by FamilyJules Outro – Tetris B Theme Guitar … Continue reading "VG Pulse 404: ERROR, Podcast not found!"

Oh my goodness, things are moving along again. That means a post is due. Have we done something about leaves being raked? Does that work for anything? No? Crap. We’ll cut right to the brass tacks then. This is a manga show and we’ve managed to read and produce a review for two. We hope you’ll listen, like, subscribe, and send two box tops plus proof of purchase along with a check for shipping to claim your prize. Tim has Hatarakanai Futari. It’s about a pair of siblings who are shut ins that do fuck all. Focused mostly on the sister, Haruko. The parents are alive and working to get … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 513: MachFut"

Two households, both alike in dignity. In fat America, where we lay our scene. And that’s about all we can figure to work in a Shakespeare reference in the few minutes we knock these out. Besides we wanted to get a little classy before we tackle an A24 movie. Yup, we watched Civil War[2024]. If you’ve seen the trailers, then you’ve got some expectations as to what we’re in for. War scenes, bad things happening, and lots of explosions. Instead, you’re treated to a civil war in the US happening because reasons. And we follow ‘journalists’ as they try and get to the White House to get an interview with … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 219: Freeway Wars"

This week on Anime Pulse we got more previews, attacking someone over spoilers, and 100 year anniversaries. Up first Joseph quickly mentions his attendance at the 100 year anniversary for is other job, before Andrew goes into community with a question about anime eyes. Then in the industry news Andrew takes it away with a stinky Yu-Gi-Oh event, and a man who got a little too heated after Oshi no Ko was spoiled for him. And finally in the second round of previews Joseph finds himself isekai'd to another world where he becomes young again and begins attending a magical high school, but Andrew on the other hand breaks wind as his family mission has him become a fable.

If you’re reading this then you’re probably hearing about all the issues on website posts. Which is ironic because the only way this shows up is that the issues are resolved. One of those kind of funny paradoxes where you get to hear about it for the next couple of episodes now that it’s all done. It’s kind of like getting the results back from a cancer screening after you’ve already had surgery to remove a growth. If it helps, we’ve been keeping up with the recordings at least so we have manga. Tim has Since the Red Moon Appeared. The title is a bit explanatory. Some red moon events … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 512: Red Secretary"

Everyone has heard the word in Hollywood. That word is exploitation and shady sexual favors. Wait, that’s not a word. The word is remake. That thing we’ve been complaining about long enough to wear out a couple of presidents. Hollywood is nothing if not persistent in their endeavor. Once they’ve bit down they will do a death roll until everybody has drowned. So we’re talking about a remake with Road House[2024]. Jake Gyllenhaal is literally not me as a replacement for Patrick Swayze. Whereas Swayze was a vaguely unexplained tough guy, Gyllenhaal is a disgraced MMA fighter. He gets randomly gets found by a small bar owner from the Florida … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 218: Cruel Road"

This week on Anime Pulse we got a bunch of previews, very little IRL news, and space ships! Up first Joseph skips the IRL news section with Andrew to go straight into community, which is all about our favorite anime space ships. Then in the industry news, there is one! And finally we have a chungus previews episode to make up for the fact there will be no show next week. Joseph is banished by his goblin family for buying an elf slave, and Andrew takes a train to camp out with a wise wolf.

This week on Anime Pulse we got no IRL news, short stacks, and a father takes a really long bike ride. Up first is the community section, because both Joseph and Andrew have zero things to talk about. Then in the industry news it's a swap as Joseph is the only one with something to mention, and it's about an old man who rode his bike over 300 miles. And finally in the final reviews before we transition over to previews for the season, Joseph is pouring syrup all over his tiny senpai and Andrew enters into a very long distance relationship with all the drama trappings.

Suddenly there was a shout. The maid pointed towards the entryway. “Look out, he’s got a nug!” She bellowed. We discovered afterwards that she had long been diagnosed as having too much black bile and that lead to a curious condition. A transposing of letters in her speech and reading. This did not affect her day to day for what maid needed to be properly lettered as she polished the silver. Still we were taken aback by the presence of two manga. Tim has Fool Night. Not a night that’s jam packed with jesters, jugglers, and other jovial jackassery. It’s sometime in the future and the world is covered in … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 511: Fool Land"
