Revisits galore are abound. This is what happens when someone has done as many reviews as we have. At this many episodes we have this means we’ve done at least a thousand. We’re being generous based on overlaps and reasons we would have doubled up. Even if we hadn’t, just round up and say a thousand for us because we’re so great. Tim has a revisit of Code Geass and this time going through the first and second volume. It’s our old future of 2010 or maybe 2011. The empire of Britainia exists and rules the world. Lelouch is four hundredth in line and living in what used to be …

Robots. Think on that for a minute, won’t you? See, we too can write Black Mirror episodes. Also, what about cameras? What if there was one inside your bidet water supply? And it possessed the memories of Winston Churchill? Scary, right? On that note, we have Soulm8te[2026]. It’s supposed to take place in the same universe as M3gan. If there’s anything you can find in is and you’re a fan of M3gan, please write us an email. We have our guy, David, who is sad because his wife died. He’s also an engineer for a small startup that gets bought. They give him a AI agent and a robot for …

This week on Anime Pulse we got horny priests, a late Andrew, and the best and worst of horror.

And thus we reach yet another previews round as Joseph summons a short dark stack with a bloody nose so they can explore magical things in the bedroom, and a Certain Andrew is abandoned by his fiancé after he lost all his saving in the stock market.

Did you know there’s a new Resident Evil movie out? And it’s directed by Zach Cregger who did the movie Weapons! So you know what that means. We’re doing two manga so that’s entirely unrelated. Unless maybe you count the fact we’re doing revisits which is kind of like rising from the grave. Yeah, so it’s like zombie manga. That’s the connection. We can make it all come around on a long enough timeline. Tim has Durarara. This time it’s the first two volumes. We have a large cast of colorful characters that’s very rushed in the first volume. The long and short of it is a there’s a Dullahan …

Have you ever had to do your homework on the school bus on Monday morning? That’s what we had to do for a movie. I no small part because we’re bery professional. So we grabbed a nineties movie off the virtual shelf because Kevin Bacon is in it. It’s supposed to star Meryl Streep but we’re there for the Bacon. So we have The River Wild(1994). Meryl Streep is a teacher who’s architect husband is always busy. She yells at him and takes the kids to go river rafting.

It’s officially Fall. It’s still pretty warm around us, hitting the high eighties and low nineties. But we’re seeing the leaves change and hoodies come out of storage. Which can only mean we need to be on the look out for the pumpkin spiced liquor of some kind. As is our tradition. Worst case we get pumpkin spice vodka and have fall shots. In the meanwhile, we have a pair of manga. First up is Tim with a mouthful of a title. It’s Not My Fault That I’m Not Popular! This is apparently a revisit from way back when. As a reminder we have our girl Kuroki, who we start …

What if you were a cop but racist? That’s the bold thought experiment that Hollywood dared to ask with the movie Heart Condition(1990). But, stay with us here, what if he were a likable schlub who learned the error of his ways? So you cast Bob Hoskins as a cop who gets a heart transplant from Denzel Washington who now haunts Hoskins. Also they were both in love with the same prostitute who used to have a heroin problem. Nothing you haven’t seen before. Next up is Tim with The Runner[2026]. Gal Gadot was given the headline in another movie. This time she’s a woman lawyer in London and has …

By now you’ve probably heard about Dolly Parton’s passing. She was very big on getting children into reading and reducing illiteracy. In that case we’re going to continue to promote literacy by reviewing manga. That may sound completely disconnected but we’ve go nothing in the tank this week. Take this intro for the place holder they usually are and we’ll move on to the manga summaries. Tim has Jinmen. Men made of gin sounds like a hilarious manga, especially if they’re English. Instead we have Masato, a weird kid who loves going to the zoo. He’s been away from his favorite zoo near mount Fuji for years and is coming …

We’ve got three movies as we often do. What we don’t usually have is a movie that has three titles for a joint review. So without a lot of ado we’re going to talk about The Scoundrel’s Wife[2002](Also The Home Front or The Smuggler’s Wife). You should be able to find it to watch on the Tube. The director had a 4K restoration done and made available because it’s basically unwatchable otherwise. It’s a movie set in World War 2. It starts just before the attack on Pearl Harbor. It’s set in Louisiana where our protagonist, Camille, is a single mother. She has a daughter and son and her husband …

You there, are you a resident? Move along then. This isn’t a park for everyone., No, I don’t care that your kids are bored and the park is farther away than this. This is a common area for residents only. And there’s no skateboarding or bike riding allowed. You aren’t going to leave, huh. Well if you sit real quiet and listen to this review of manga or two, we won’t trespass you. Hey, where are you going? First up is Tim with Kurosagi. Kurosaki is a swindlers swindler. He finds con artists and cons them. The first being an operation that stole about ten million yen from a business …

Lastly we reach the reviews where Joseph uses his super culinary skills to cook up orc, dragon, and kraken. As for Andrew he takes a seat to tell us a story, with minimal movement but lots of comedy.

It’s been a very busy week. People constantly running around, doing things. Having all sorts of consequences. Honestly we’re happy that it’s been as calm as we can hope for as summer winds down. We’ll just be glad to not have to run the air conditioning all the damn time. Maybe have an excuse to wear a hoody outside and take along our concealed manga. But that’s a whole other show. We have Vengeance: A Love Story[2017]. A movie based on a Joyce Carol Oates novel. Which doesn’t really narrow it down. If you don’t know, she’s the kind of person that takes the headlines and makes a fiction story …

Hello it's Andrew, just Andrew (and guest). I also have Whisky, be afraid. This week the community about anime that should have been aborted early. With news I cover 2 of my favourite things to talk about lately, censorship and Umamusume. And finally we have a guest review from long time listener BioMegaBear who is doing battle while possessing battle Barbie's while I spend Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter dying of cringe. 💀

Man, how about that economy? It sure is contentious. How about those clowns in congress? Have you heard about the latest gaffe? With current events out of the way, we can take you mind off of them with the soothing balm of our voices and manga. So put on your headphones and tune the world out while we give you our trademark dual review(not actually trademarked). First up is Tim with Countach. Now if you’re not into historical supercars, that might sound like some good old fashioned mumbly jumbly. It is the name of a famous model by Lamborghini. This manga is about a man who dreamt of getting one …

This week on VG Pulse, we have a nice short and sweet show! We start off with side notes of work and upcoming medical things, before we dive into the regular news where we discuss data breaches, Sony’s ongoing disc less parade, Twitch doing shady Twitch things, and a very very old lawsuit that somehow only just reached resolution!

It seems there’s another superhero movie out and we need to watch it. Who’s making this demand of us? No one in particular that we can point to. It’s just a sort of need. We can feel it. They call to us. Like the pirates of a certain ship in a much better movie. So we watched Supergirl[2026]. Superman’s cousin is not like other superheroes. She drinks and she has a dog. She likes to part and fuck around away from earth. Also she’s not like Clark, have we mentioned she’s not like Clark? Until a sad little girl shows up and is seeking vengeance from the bad guy who …

Lastly more reviews before whatever comes next week, as Joseph picks up a broken keyboard to use as a machine gun and Andrew meets IRyS while cleaning her apartment but she's not who he expected!

We recently were watching a show, a British show, where the host cheekily complained about making so many custom intros for their show. Wow, that must be a lot of intros that they’ve done. Let us look up and take count. Two hundred, that must be a lot. If you’re some sort of amateur. We beat the pants off of that. Of course we forgive the anglo for thinking they work. Tim has Domu. This is by the author of Akira and was published right after. You can tell because the thrust of things is a psychic old man who murders people in the apartment complex he lives in. This …

Continue reading "Manga Pulse 563: Domu-Sama"

This week on Anime Pulse we got love triangles, layoffs, and camping alone but someone joins you. First up IRL news is here with Andrew fearing he may be losing his edge in Street Fighter, and Joseph's full-time job handed out some bad news. Then in the industry news a Japanese woman was arrested for ghosting on her anime purchases. Finally we have returned to reviews! Joseph goes camping by himself only to find a random woman stripping near his tent, and Andrew washes his clothes and the clothes of others.

Summer time when the manga is easy. At least as easy to come by as it always is. Not that we would ever let any kind of difficulties get in our way. We’re not so easily kept from our task of manga review. Grab some sorbet and pop in your headphones because we’ve got two manga and a couple of scores to give them. Tim has Ichi the Witch. Ichi is a dude, a little dude who hunts. He lives in a world where there are witches and they’re always ladies. These ladies go off to magic school where they beat a demon and get it’s power. Ichi comes across …

Continue reading "Manga Pulse 562: Ichi Ichi Scratchi Scratchi"

This week on Anime Pulse we got wasp swarms, hacking ghosts, and no community!? Up first IRL news sees Andrew back in London but not before going on the run of a lifetime, and Joseph found himself on the receiving end of a buzzing menace. Then in the industry news, there is none! And without any community segment, because Andrew got a bit sidetracked with IRL life things, that means the final previews centric show sees things out. Joseph discovers there's a reincarnated skeleton in his body made up of 100 girlfriends, Andrew transforms into a giant lizard that is totally not Godzilla so he can beat up other girls in fighting games, and then the two join forces to assassinate corrupt politicians, dive into their hot boss's mind, and abandon homeless children.

Let’s hop into the Tardis and take you back to a simpler time. Hold up your sporks and prepare to ship Sherlock with the Onceler. Do you remember when Johnny Depp was basically just Jack Sparrow in every damn movie? Let us remind you with Mortdecai[2015]. Depp plays the titular lord Mordecai. He’s English and he has a bad mustache. That’s a whole recurring joke they drive into the ground faster than a Robin Reliant strapped to a rocket. He has a wife, Gweneth Paltrow, and a rival in Ewan Mcgregor who’s horny for her. He’s deep in tax dept to the state and takes a job to help locate …

It’s been hot folks. The depths of summer have arrived along with the heat. We’re living through some wonderful triple digits for those of us that use freedom units. The rest of the world can just be wrong and measure weather with an imprecise system made up by, gag, the French. You’d think that alone would be enough to convince the rest of the world to abandon it. Also, we still have manga reviews. Up first is Tim with I’m Nearly 30, but This is My First Love. We have a twenty eight year old woman, Yamamoto who is finally dating and really likes this guy. The initial catch is …

Continue reading "Manga Pulse 561: Give Her Some of that Bat Love"

It’s movie time for the Popcorn gentlemen. Which normally means a three-fer of a review. We like to shake it up every once in awhile and do two dual reviews. It doesn’t take us any less work but then you get less reviews. Or maybe you get better analysis because we’ve both focused on the two films. Rather than simply reacting to what the other remembers, infallibly, about their individual watch. First up is The Best Offer[2013]. Geoffrey Rush plays Virgil Oldman. Like the Kojima character he’s modeled off of, Virgil is old and a man. He’s an auctioneer and evaluates art. He gets called into review an estate by …

Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 267: Citizen Offer"

This week on Anime Pulse we got a return with previews, a return with no news, and a return with stuff. I dunno, does anyone even read these? Anyways, up first IRL news with Joseph having done a whole lot of nothing the past week and Andrew touches on his trip. No industry news this week because the website tried to charge Andrew a subscription, so community it is with displacement theory. Lastly are the previews as Joseph reincarnates after defeating the demon lord into a dragon cat whose classes in heavy knight, and Andrew chain smokes 500 manga issues behind a convenience store.

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 Monsters We Make. It’s an OEL set in the future year of XX. You see there was something of a disaster and everyone born either after or during some event called endless night …

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 as something like a chimp. The military bombs the outbreak spot after collecting a sample. Fast forward to modern day, the nineties, and there’s a new outbreak(hey, that’s the title) cropping up. Dustin Hoffman and Cuba Gooding Jr must swoop …

Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 266: Outbreak of Death"

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 Darisu Smith is a kid in the future. He fights with other school kids and has a sister. His fighting prowess gets the attention of the people that run cyborg gladiator fights. It’s his ticket …

Continue reading "Manga Pulse 559: XOXOXO Again"

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.

Andrew however is on more familiar grounds, hitting those birdies and being trained by a baddie.

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 there’s a salmon fishery in Norway that is dealing with a fictional parasite. They use sonic technology, and not just sonic or hypersonic. But alternate dimensional chaos emerald Sonic, Steve. Or maybe just ultra …

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 popular game that suddenly went offline and the CEO disappeared. Shortly afterwards, gates opened up, monsters started attacking, and everyone that was a player became their character. What happened to the people that multiplayed because …

Continue reading "Manga Pulse 558: Girl Player"

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, and Andrew eats some fingers to fight in a culling game.

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 the Soviets have a plane. This super secret plane has a neural interface and the test pilot is the same size as Clint. Ignoring that a man who is six feet four inches almost certainly wouldn’t be a test pilot back in the …
