Episode 939: Spring 2026 Previews #1

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, but the community is still here with some Ayy LAMO. Lastly we’re into a new season with new anime as Joseph east monsters, becomes a great sage, and is totally not banging his ninja-like companion. Andrew meanwhile becomes a North Star rooster who uses petals to reincarnate.

Script 2 Script 37: Animorphs

Does anything take you back to the good old days more than a Scholastic Bookfair? Not Tim because his parents didn’t authorize the spend for such things. There were plenty of books in the library for practically free. Kids who’s parents wanted to encourage reading though might remember the covers of Animorphs. You know, those hilariously bad transformations of some random kid turning into a boring animal. Well it was also a show!

This must be the fake movie phone episode. What with the five five five starting us off. Does Hollywood even bother with that anymore? If not, it’s now ours. And we’ll make loads of disgusting lucre, we’re talking hundreds of yen per year, to license it out. Why we’ll be able to retire or at least die. Either way we have some manga reviews.

Popcorn Pulse 261: Fuzzy Wuzzy’s Outfit

Look, we really like going back through film catalogs of famous actors. But if death could just slow it the heck down for a bit. Maybe go collect some mosquitoes instead. Because there are only so many losses we can take and the Academy’s “in memoriam” isn’t going to get them all at this rate. So we just said goodbye to Robert Duvall and decided to do something that was around but was not the Godfather.

How may reviews for Superman movies does the world need? It needs ours and that’s about it. Everyone else can go back to Krypton. Yes, we sat down and finally watched James Gunn’s Superman[2025].
