Anime Pulse

I would have nominated the Ragnarök one ( The Master Of Ragnarok And Blesser Of Einherjar ) as the worst. But I really think Conception is giving it a serious run for its money — and it isn’t even finished with its run as yet. Oh, and there’s a serious burn-it in that Yuri anime Netsuzou Trap That w...

(Wow, still no discussion? I’ll get us started then...) It’s been a strange year for me. While I cannot recall too many great games of late — other than my usual of playing a heavily modded Skyrim or making my own mods — there were few I consider to be all that memorable. But lately I went back to N...

All of the above? We have subscriptions to Netflix, Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Amazon Prime — and those streaming services seem to satisfy at least 90% of our family needs. Then we also have Netflix DVD (Blu-ray) service for a lot of the physical media needs. AND if we like something good enough, ...

There are a ton of anime series I’d like to see additional seasons of. A few come to mind immediately. First, I and my kids have been waiting (and waiting) for another season of Ars Nova : Arpegio of Blue Steel , And likewise, they always want more Girls Und Panzer (although I personally think that ...

I can’t think of a Japanese Anime that does not have Christmas as a somewhat integral part of its set up more than does the Amagami series — or at least, its the first one that came to mind. The back story to the lead protag Junichi was that his heart was broken after being stood up by a girl he had...

Yeah, nothing to add. The first thing I thought of was the second series of Last Exile mentioned above—although I did not hate it, I did not think it was necessary. And Haruhi Suzamiya’s Endless Eight p*ssed me off so bad that I came to hate both seasons altogether. I tell my son to never mention it...

When I think of food in an anime it has to be Shokugeki no Soma. So I would like to visit the Totsuki Saryo Culinary Institute and sample their dishes. Food-gasms galore! https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d3/Shokugeki_no_Souma_Volume_1.jpg OR... if it has to be a restaurant, then perhaps J...

I consider an acquisition by a big pub like EA or Activision to be no different than a closure. Sooner or later it happens.
Thus I bid a fond farewell to Obsidian, swallowed into Microsoft like so many others.

Before the 90’s a lot of Japanese animation had evolved to quite detailed and elaborate artwork, BUT the number of tween frames were severely lacking, barely sufficient in number and made for choppy action. But with the increased use of computer assisted animation tools, their anime rapidly improved...

Last Exile had me right off the start with their obvious love for flight. I was immediately hooked by its skyscape visuals, epic battles and steampunkish aesthetic. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1bV9dKEFnPc/Tpj2A39DC3I/AAAAAAAAAew/2OAeb2EeLsU/s1600/last_exile.jpg I could name more, but that is enough fo...
