This week on Anime Pulse we got the first round of previews from the new year, the solution to Japan's declining birthrates, and vtuber trouble. Up first Joseph doesn't talk so much about his week as he does talk about some recent vtubers who have moved on, and Andrew is looking to find the best looking but worst plot driven anime. Then in the industry news a new golfing anime has Andrew psyched, and Crunchyroll still thinks it can host an awards show for the best anime of the past year. And finally

Two guys and ten movies. No, it’s not us talking yet more James Bond. Though that will be coming. We’ve got something a little special for everyone. By that we mean we’re doing a movie that wasn’t in either of our wheelhouse and probably hasn’t been covered by a whole host of people before. We have Truck Rascals(1975). The first of what would become a series of ten films, this heralds Japan’s cultural obsession with trucking as well. Oh and those ten films were made within five years. Because once

A whole other week arrives. Along with all the chill and snow of a new year. In spite of this we rouse the dogs and lash them to the sled. All so we can make our long and arduous journey to the manga store. From which we will review two manga. Will they be found fresh or are they molding like those mangosteens no one ate? Tim starts us off with Amai Seikatsu. Shinosuke is a guy who works in the warehouse of a lingerie company. He’s so obsessed with lingerie he can tell what a woman is wearing under

Hey there folks. Water your horse and giddy on up. Put on your boots and check the local wanted posters. We’ve got a Western on deck this week because we wanted to mix it up. Not as well as your counter top appliance with a wire beater. Maybe like a hand held mixer with a paddle beater. We have Red Sun(1971). A Charles Bronson movie set in the old west where the Japanese have sent some diplomats including a couple of samurai. Bronson robs the train they’re on. Bronson’s underling steals a sword from

This week on Anime Pulse we got rude teachers, no new year resolutions, and reverse isekai. Up first Joseph was a good citizen and turned in a cell phone to the police, and Andrew asks the community what the best anime of 2023 were. Then in the industry news an ESL teacher in Japan tries to pass of being an asshole as an "American Joke", and theater staff are increasingly annoyed by the movie tie-in swag for anime movies. And then in the reviews Joseph reincarnates into the body of a recently

Line up folks. It’s episode five hundred and five. Which is always a bit awkward to type out. We were once told that the and in number was for describing decimal points. Yet it feels natural to write it out like that. Then when we go and check style guides and they say that it’s better to use numerals for larger numbers because writing it out wastes space. Screw you, style guides, we have near infinite space thanks to the digital revolution. Tim has The Bully In-Charge. A manwha where there’s a

This week on Anime Pulse we got the annual Anime Pulse Christmas Gift Exchange, the worst anime of 2023, and Pro Mercy Joseph. Up first the IRL news has Joseph tooting his own horn about his Mercy game in Overwatch 2, and Andrew has been up and down the country all week long while playing a Meteoroid game on the 3DS. Then in the industry news there's just one thing worth mentioning, and that's a big name in anime who think he's still got plenty more to learn. And lastly in the reviews Joseph wonders

More Bond for the Bond god. We’ve got a whole crate of Gold Bond medicated powder. Because all these movies are old and old people like talc. Plus it’s got gold right in the name so it’s almost related. We start off with our boy Sean in Goldfinger(1964). This is the movie where all the elements come together. If you’ve never seen a Bond movie, you’re aware of this through sheer cultural osmosis. This is when we have the laser aimed at bisecting a British agent and a heavy set man obsessed with gold

We’ve gone and done it again. Forgone the usual schedule to stay on the topic of our favorite British secret service agents. No, not Christopher Lee. Though maybe he should enter the equation some time. And he will make an appearance in this little deviation we’re enjoying. Until then, we start with From Russia With Love(1963). Anchoring the whole shebang is our man, Connery. The second Bond movie has found its feet even if they’re a bit unsteady. Some of the elements we’ve come to associate with

Popcorn Pulse 209: James Bond

Ze Shows – Anime Pulse ·

2023/12/05

We’ve talked about it for quite some time. Teased and hinted at doing something a little unorthodox from the norm. So we’ve broken down and gone and done it. We’ve leaned into the universe of James Bond. Helped by the fact it’s all free on a certain streaming service we don’t advertise for free. We have to start with the first of course. Dr No(1962), while not the first novel, was the first adaptation. Perhaps because JFK was a bit of a fan of the book. Sean Connery’s first outing as Bond has him

It’s time to get dried out from all the aquatic themed books we’ve done. What better place than Arrakis, Dune, desert planet. The Frank Herbert novel is getting another adaptation soon-ish. It’s a classic space opera where one family attempts to trap another on a hostile world to be exterminated. The mix of Muad’dib and the spice of the planet allows Paul to survive and thrive. Being a scifi novel, there’s a lot of backstory that Lynch wasn’t really able to fit in. How much of it was due to studio

Alright. We’ve got two sample bottles of scotch and two mangas. No funny business or running gags. No diversionary little anecdotes that are about as pointless as a marble. Perhaps a little bit of rambling that goes nowhere like a road to an abandoned farm which has antiques you can steal. They’re haunted as a matter of course. Have a priest’s number on hand before you go barn looting. Tim has Choujin X. A physical copy he bought from a bookstore even and remembered to bring to the show! The year is

Popcorn Pulse 208: Three Vampires Outside Renfield

2023/11/07

It’s October, as we recorded this anyways. And we needed something that fitted within the spirit of the season. That spirit is whiskey and it’s a perennial favorite of ours. That spirit guided us towards our patron saint, senor Nicolas Cage. We’re pretty sure he was knighted in Spain so he can be called senor as a title. That’s right, we have Renfield[2023]. It’s modern day and we join Renfield trying to get along and help the master, Lord Dracula. He’s feeling a bit abused as Dracula beats him

Hello, we’re Manga Pulse and we thank you for choosing us today. We have a lovely set of specials right now. A very seasonal word salad made from only the worst quality slang and confusion. Peppered with silliness brought on by anything mentioned within the news. Braised with whatever alcohol was on sale. This is all paired with a tasty set of reviews on only the freshest of manga, left to sit on the warehouse dock through the weekend. Tim has Fire Force. This takes place in a world where there are

We need some sort of inspiration for a film choice. We’ve drawn from novel adaptations. Foreign films. Ok, let’s see if we can find a movie based on a hentai. We’ll just turn to the old fashioned internet oracle. And that was darn fast. Though this is less hentai and more ecchi. Fuck it, we ball. We’ve got Kite[2014]. India Eisley is a girl who murders people. Samuael Jackson is sort of her handler. He gives her a drug called Amp after she finishes a job. Though it screws with memory. Which makes

Manga Pulse 502: Ash Buster

Ze Shows – Anime Pulse ·

2023/10/17

We don’t always review manga but when we do, we do. And sometimes we do only one. But we’re pretty sure that hasn’t happened a whole lot. Unless it does and then we don’t care. But we also don’t want to be badgered by anyone if we’re wrong. Tim has Beet the Vandel Buster. Beet, named after his father’s favorite crop to grow because this is a fantasy universe originating from The Office. Dwight’s long lost grandson fights Vandel’s which are demons. There’s power levels and spiritual powers. Also

This week on Anime Pulse we got cooking orc and dragon for your fluffy companion, a new problem for tourists heading to Japan, and feeling envious of a fictional character. Up first the IRL news see Joseph being more judgmental of the manga he's being recommended by overlord YouTube, and Andrew is preparing for visitors. Then in the industry news we're eating another Joseph sandwich with a slice of Ghibli, a slice of Auctions, and some gooey Monks inside. And finally in the reviews Joseph can use

There was a time when the buddy comedy could be found in many theaters. You couldn’t throw a cheap quarter pounder without hitting a movie poster where some cop was teamed up with some other unorthodox character. We used to be a real country, darn it. We take a visit back to those halcyon days where we knew who was the bad guys(it was the French). We have Red Heat(1988). It’s a team up between a Chicago cop and a Soviet Cop. Jim Belushi plays the Chicago man and Arnold Schwarzenegger plays the
