This week on Anime Pulse we got good gatcha luck, the return of Vic, and a man Joseph hates as much as Andrew hates Rent-a-Girlfriend’s Kazuya. First up Joseph got all the 5-starts he wanted in the recent summer FGO event, and Andrew asks us to look way into the future and think if you’ll be watching anime still. Then in the industry news we have topics like a man doing his best to ruin the environment, and Seven Seas being a shitty publisher attempting to appeal to the LGBT community by turning a man trans. And finally in the previews Joseph summons a sexy Onee-san demon to kill a deadbeat loser who keeps turning down paying work, and Andrew loses all his previews to the data sea and can’t recover them.
