Anime Pulse

Bada bing, bada boo, we got a manga show for you. Yes, we could have said bada boom. It wouldn’t have had the same impact. Rhyming is paramount and what we were aiming for, after all. Not that it rhymed very well or anything. Look, we just have to get something down and desperation makes for a pushy mistress as the deadline looms. Either way, we still have a pair of manga. First up is Tim with Mon...

Hey guys, remember random monkey things? Like monkey pirate ninjas? Well what if they were carriers of a super infections disease that ate your face and turned you into a puddle of goo within two days? We sort of have that going on with today’s movie, Outbreak(1995). It’s about a disease that crops up in Africa in the sixties. It’s carried by capuchins because then they’re not quite as horrifying...

This week on Anime Pulse we got sunburn, abrupt endings, and bland isekai. Up first in the IRL news Andrew is feeling a bit under the weather, and Joseph suffered three ways while doing yard work. Then in the industry news the Japanese government is centralizing anime. Lastly another round of reviews see Joseph gathering up the scraps of adventure in an isekai, and Andrew revvs a chainsaw while ri...

This week on VG Pulse, Aki is extra ‘splody among all the Not-E3 madness!! We start off with sidenotes of why Aki ‘sploded last week, before diving into the regular news where we discuss GTA6’s price reveal, Steam’s new computer, and then we go over our thoughts and reactions to the various Not-E3 shows from this year!! We continue on with a discussion about the age of a fi...

Welcome to our fishery. Old Two Cut Tuna. Named because we always take two slices out for ourselves. It’s a tradition we started since we did manga reviews. At least that’s what we’d like to be called if we did guided fishing tours. Having seen the cost of boats and fuel, we’ll stick to manga reviews. With that, we have two like we often do. First up is Tim with XoGenasys. It’s the future and Dari...

This week on Anime Pulse we got Discord bans, Seven Deadly Golfers, and how to torture the podcast hosts. Up first IRL news has Andrew back from his brief trip, and Joseph has begun his lawn mowing Unc arc. Then in the industry news, Hololive will be returning to the baseball field. Finally the reviews come fast with Joseph waking up with boobs, OP powers, and terribly obvious villains. Andrew how...

Open the hatch. Seriously, it’s damp down here at the bottom of the ocean and a bit cold. Plus we just saw bits of the Titan sub go floating by. We don’t want to have to wade through anymore of the compressed people bits than may exist already. The cleverer of you may have sussed out that the oceanic intro signals a water based movie. Which brings us to a Norwiegian film, Kraken[2026]. The plot is...

Things are better in twos. Four wheels good? Two wheels better. Four legs good? Two legs better. That’s why our reviews come in pairs. At least for the manga. The movies are a whole other ball game inside a kettle of fish. Are we mixing metaphors and aphorisms? You betcha, because that’s two and two is better. First up is Tim with a webtoon, The Player Hides His Past. The premise is there was a po...

This week on Anime Pulse we got careless heroes, remakes, and disappointing burgers. Up first IRL news with Andrew punishing an Ingrid player who counted their chicken before they hatched, and Joseph went to a place called Herbie's Burgers for a very sad mouthful experience. Then in the industry news there is no industry news! Lastly the reviews close things out as Joseph becomes a very bored Goku...

Welcome back to Manga review racing. Where we track the fastest manga reviewers. As this is the off season they’re going to talk about movies. Turning around we have something about pilots, planes, and a scowling Clint Eastwood. That’s right, a movie you’ve never heard of, Firefox(1982). Clint Eastwood is a retired pilot who fought in Vietnam. The US Government wants to drag him back in because th...

This week on Anime Pulse we got mountain climbing, low calorie hentai, and the best holiday episode in anime. Up first IRL news rolls in with Andrew dodging smurfing Ingrid players, and Joseph had the saltiest fried dough on Earth. Then in the industry news the mangaka of Gachiakuta deleted their X account. And finally the reviews close us out with Joseph attempting to shut down Japan’s bree...

This week on VG Pulse, how does one escape California???? We start off with side notes of Millennium’s new gaming wheel situation, before diving into the regular news where we discuss Takashi Tezuka’s well-earned retirement, some updates to Apple and Epic’s continued lawsuit, more internet screaming over AI, and the fact that the new Steam controller screams when you drop it!! Af...

Two is better than one, at least when it comes to coatings. You need a nice solid clear coat to protect your paint. And to keep that nice and safe, you should apply a nice sacrificial coating like wax. Our manga reviews are like that wax, our sacrifice for your entertainment. Going so far as to take on manga that’s requested as well. First up is Tim with a request in Red River. It’s a nineties man...

This week on Anime Pulse we got jail breaks, dull apocalypses, and horrible combat. Up first IRL news with Andrew slam jamming his opponents in Street Fighter as Ken, and Joseph slogged his way through Lust Planet to play a better game about killing aliens. Then in the industry news a bell rung for peace is silenced for peaceful reasons, and apparently isekai is bad for the industry. Lastly the re...

This week on Anime Pulse we got Santas, xeno scum, and golden ball hunting. Up first Andrew is pushing himself to go even further beyond, and Joseph wrapped up his time playing Rebel Galaxy. Then in the industry news there is nothing! So we talk Christmas instead. Lastly a rare fusion review! Joseph and Andrew link forces to watch a dorky guy and a genki girl interlock fingers, fight mongolian dea...

This week on Anime Pulse we got ageless magicians, the best goth baddies, and raises. Up first is the IRL news where Andrew returned to being the 2nd best M. Bison player in his region, and Joseph took a leap of faith and asked his boss for a raise. (sort of ) Then in the industry news the crunchiest roll becomes a little crunchier. And finally a rare gattai show has things see us out with Joseph...

This week on VG Pulse, we actually review some things??? GASP!! We start off with side notes of work and rare trading cards, before we dive into the regular news where Microsoft is going back to XBOX branding again, the steam controller’s price and release date is revealed, Sony got caught doing shady shit, and Game Stop is once again eating glue in the corner! After the news we finally get...

Let’s start off with a joke. What comes after sunset? Knight time! What better way to segue into the movie we have. It’s all about knights but not the last one. Also it’s a tale about a knight but not a knight’s tale. It’s about the last ones, the Last Knights[2015], if you will. There was no more after this. They were all clearanced out and we moved on to things like surfers. So Clive Owen is a k...

This week on Anime Pulse we got more previews? Yeah, remember when Joseph said last show was the last previews show? He lied. Up first is IRL news with Andrew has regained his audio quality, and Joseph did his first mow of the year. Then in the industry news we have nothing, but community makes up for it with anime original characters. And finally those pesky previews have Joseph attempting to sav...

Oh no, you just posted cringe! You are going to lose subscriber! Jokes on you, buddy, we always post cringe. We are creatures of embarrassment, shaped by these experiences as much as our victories. We don’t like it but we do not fight it like some people. We do a manga review show so there’s something of a floor to the expectation we just have to accept. To that end, Tim has Rick and Morty The Man...

This week on Anime Pulse we got our final round of just previews, pink hair, and being a space cowboy. Up first IRL news where Andrew is now an uncle x2, and Joseph has been warping around space to sell green whisky. Then in the industry news, we got none, because this time around we got quite a preview line up for ya. Speaking of which, the previews! Joseph returns to Earth after battling space k...

This week on VG Pulse, the internet can be an exhausting place sometimes!! We start off with side notes of work, before diving into the regular news where we discuss the ongoing hunt for the phantom dragon of AI, the exciting upcoming release of S&box, Google Play removing Doki Doki Literature Club so long after its release for… some reason…, Valve continuing to win at life, and Ro...

The impossible has finally come to pass. Star Citizen has been release in full, fully realized. It’s sweeping awards in every category and Netflix has already paid the studio one billion dollars to adapt it to streaming. Or maybe Chuck Norris has passed and rather suddenly. Which at least prompted a resurgence of old internet memes. To that effect though, we have Code of Silence(1985). Chuck Norri...

This week on Anime Pulse we got more previews, mall walks, and our favorite villains. Up first IRL news has Andrew has been smashing it with his weekly fitness targets, and Joseph won $200 in a raffle.

This week on Anime Pulse we got manga animated with texture rigging, getting down with the sickness, and anime to watch with aliens. Up first Andrew returns from his minor break to indulge us with his stories from the trip, and Joseph got a sinus infection and actually had to take a sick day off of work. Then we give a pass to industry news, because previews tend to run the show a little too long,...
