Anime Pulse

Double double, review some trouble. Pickup two manga and prepare for scrungle. This is why you invest in a good rhyming dictionary and don’t rely on some weird website that’s user generated and maintained. Because then the porn bots get in there and muddle it all up with gibberish. Tim has Servant X Service. Which is a brick of a manga that’s done in 4koma style. Unlike many of those we’ve reviewe...

This week on Anime Pulse we got children in space, only the best CG, and Pie. Up first Joseph celebrated Pi day with some bake-to-order Apple Pie, and Andrew digs into what we think the best uses of CG in anime are. Then in the industry news we got the top isekai survey that Joseph didn't make, and a breach in anime security at Toei Animation. Finally in the reviews Joseph teases his tiny junior a...

Twice as nice for have the price. That’s our movie review deal and you’re getting whether you like it or not. We’re taking a trip back to the days where people went over to stores to rent movies for a couple of days. This is because movies hated us just as much but they still needed our money. And they couldn’t just hook up the milking machine like they do now. That’s right, the nineties which peo...

This week on Anime Pulse we got poor communication, dream adaptations, and cracked stones. Up first the IRL news is in and out like a light, going straight into the community stuff. Then in the industry news we talk about the freedom of a nine tailed fox, some old anime that men like, and optical illusions. Lastly the reviews have Joseph becoming the translator for a bad communicator, and Andrew p...

Well the request start coming and they don’t stop coming. And they don’t stop coming. And they don’t stop coming. And they don’t stop…brrrrrttt. Sorry. The vinyl was stuck again. That’s what happens when you buy your record player off of alibaba. I guess it’s back to eBay and estate sales because I’m not buying a nearly two thousand dollar Technics turntable. I don’t care what the tweed wear...

This week on VG Pulse, explosions and weak sauce abound! We start off with news of injuries delaying our recordings, before diving into the regular news where we discuss video game publishers and developers blocking sales of games in Russia, video game footage being passed around as real wartime footage, some of the announcements made at this week’s State Of Play, and Elden Ring being awesom...

Then in the industry news we see a tick up in wages for Bandi employees, uneven wages for animations across the gambit, and Crunchyroll consuming Funimation left...

Put your ears on and grow out the porn-stache. We’ve dipped into that hazy era known as the seventies. Who better to guide us all through that wild time than Burt Reynolds? Give him a pair of smoked aviators, a classic muscle car, a song written for a film and you’ve got a movie. Thus we have the classic Smokey and the Bandit(1977). The plot is that a Texas oil baron and his son bet that Burt can’...

This week on Anime Pulse we got evolving fruit, our favorite isekai, and more Spice and Wolf. First up Joseph had a snow day and is doing his best to calm down editing Joseph, meanwhile Andrew wants to know what our favorite isekai are. Then in the industry news some thieves have been stealing something in plain sight, Kyoto Animation wants you to break them off a piece, and Studio Ghibli makes a...

What’s this? I don’t know if it’s the booze or not but I’m seeing double. Two manga reviews in the same show? We take the heavy effort of picking up the books, reading them, then scrambling to get the equipment fired up and working. We might also develop some sort of opinion about them and apply a rating. Once we’ve wandered off into the weeds so far we’re finding golf balls. Tim has Ninja Slayer...

This week on Anime Pulse we got Himalayan burgers, magical courtrooms, and technical difficulties in multiplayer. Up first is the usual IRL news as Joseph has finally moved forward in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and Andrew asks us for our top wizards/mages in anime. Then in the industry news it's a solo helping from Joseph, as he wishes his digestive system was 10 years younger so he could partake of...

Ring ring, rookie. Scarf a pop tart and knock back a double cup of coffee. Night shift starts in fifteen minutes. No one cares if your work shirt hasn’t been laundered. Slather on some deodorant and hop on the bus. You’re going for a ride in Bringing out the Dead(1999). We’re reaching back in the career of one Nic Cage. Back when his visage wasn’t on every straight to red box dvd film. Follow alon...

favorite romantic dates in anime. Then in the industry news the potatoes come up short again but this time not for McDonalds, and Crunchyroll hold a totally fair and honest poll on the best anime of late year. Lastly the reviews see us out with Joseph delving deep into the darkest dungeon, and Andrew attempts to deal with a boisterous troublemaker who confesses his love for him.

Let’s see. Bills. Junk mail. Offers to buy a house the show doesn’t own. Vote Romney for President? How long has it been since we’ve looked at our inbox proper? Not that long because we have some requests which we address. And much quicker than we do letters to the editor for some defunct BDSM magazine we keep getting. Tim has Boruto. The sequel to Naruto that no one asked for. Set years after Nar...

This week on Anime Pulse we got square burgers, ultra cringe harems, and goofy antagonists. Up first the IRL news has Joseph shoveling himself out of ice and snow, and Andrew runs his first Mario Party stream. Then in the industry news we make a sandwich out of Andrew with updates on the Potato Shortage and an author not being able to handle the criticisms. Lastly is the final Gattai show as Josep...

Just like the Twin Galaxies we hold absolutely all the world records. Unsurprisingly they are all related to our own show. Most consecutive episodes of Popcorn Pulse? For the one hundredth and sixty sixth time it goes to us…us! Take that, podcasts which aren’t even in the running. We decided that we’d go to a modern release with Matrix Resurrections[2022]. Did you guess it would be garbage?...

This week on Anime Pulse we got Joseph passing on an isekai, the philosophy behind what counts as artificial life, and a really dumb looking ad. Up first the IRL news has Joseph excited for his new iMac, and Andrew asks us what our favorite robots in anime are. Then in the industry news we got a Joseph Sandwich with rice balls between a biscuit and America, was that a bit vague? Too bad! Listen to...

Warning, awkward audio dips as we kept looking away from the mics. We made some adjustments to the output but it’s still going to be off a bit. Let’s say, hypothetically, you wanted to listen to a show. Also hypothetically, you had access to two of the most hinged people on the internet? Yes, I said hinged. These men, titans among capybaras, are the polar opposite of unhinged. They might even be s...

This week on Anime Pulse we got more updates on the French Fry war of 2022, knock-off Komi-san, and Super Mario XCOM. Up first IRL news sees Joseph return to performing Magic, and Andrew would like to know who our first anime crush was.

This week on VG Pulse, it’s been a slow and weird month! We start off with side notes of the weird slog that is January, before diving into the regular news where we discuss Take Two gaining the title of biggest acquisition deal of all time… for all of a week, before Microsoft actually takes that title with it’s own acquisition deal!! We have a great discussion about the state of the A...

If you were anywhere near a TV in the late nineties you were exposed to Ashton Kutcher and Sean Williams Scott shouting dude and sweet at each other. A gag which Tim swears goes on for a third of an eternity. That’s right, we’ve got a comedy today in the form of Dude, Where’s My Car[2000]. What happens when a pair of stoners wake up from a bender with their car being lost? Also, is it a bender if...

This week on Anime Pulse we got a new season of anime, potato wars, and incoming snow storms. Up first Joseph is scratching his monkey brain over why his iMac is getting so hot, and Andrew asks the community what anime they are hyped for this season. Then in the industry news a rival chain to McDonalds ups the ante, and a super cosplayer amazes with the sheer number of outfits she owns. Lastly in...

There are twin cities out there. You have to be careful though because there are fraternal and paternal. Fraternal twin cities share a geography only. Paternal twin cities are ones that were originally founded by the same person but divided because of prohibition or some similar legal disagreement. Which is why New York and Los Angeles are so far apart. New York decided that living in a hole with...
