Episode 453: Fruit of Dandy

Welcome back friends and fellow otakus, this week Red and Ryo are doing things a bit differently. They take it from the top with news about the show itself, talking about changes and suggestions fellow community members have shared with them. They cover two emails sent in, and then discuss what is going on with them IRL and laying it all out for all of the listeners to hear. Then they mosey on over to the discussion thread, this weeks question about sharing your favorite anime convention experience. And finally, after an extended show, it’s onto the reviews where Red had Space Dandy season 2 and Ryo has the Fruit of Grisaia.

VG Pulse 228: Incomprehensible Absurdity

This week on VG Pulse, I sadly cannot be on due to having a chest infection and no voice, but Kas and Millennium pick up the slack just fine! We start out with a large discussion on the ways of the ninja janitors and how they’re working overtime to assure that we have as many ‘leaks’ as possible before E3, before we move on and discuss the recent news on the Kickstarter for the spiritual successor to Castlevania! After the news we go over the forums, and close out with an update from Millennium on Project Cars! All this and more up next on VGP 228! -Aki Continue reading “VG Pulse 228: Incomprehensible Absurdity”

Red and Ryo are back again to bring you another episode of Anime Pulse, after some quick announcements by Red they jump straight into the news.

Then it’s into the discussion thread, where this week you had to describe your favorite anime in the style of a recipe. And finally two reviews wrap things up, Ryo reviews the second season of Nagi no Asukara and Red explode everywhere with his love for Mahouka.

Episode 450: The One that Got Away

Hello everyone, Red here. Now normally I would be bringing you a new episode of Anime Pulse about this time, but due to technical difficulties the recorded show was rendered unsalvageable. This means that Rio and I did have a show, but it will not be released to the public due to this fact.

I’d like to apologize to all of out loyal listeners, this is the first time this has happened on my watch and I hope it to be the last time. Rio and I are working on trying to prevent this problem from occurring ever again, but it’s an odd one.

This is where you the audience can come in to help save the day, perhaps solve this unique problem. See, the show is recorded by the two hosts (Rio and myself) and then I edit them together. Normally this is an easy task and I slap the two audio tacks together, line up a spike in the recording we create by clapping, and the two sync together like PB&J. What has been happening however, is that Rio’s half is slowly adding silence time over the course of her recording. By the end of it all, her audio is up to fifteen seconds longer then my own, our audio not syncing up at all. This is a problem I have never encountered before and I do not know what to do, Rio says she might be onto something but I’d like to get more heads in on this.

Like myself, Rio is using Garageband. If you have any ideas as to what this problem could be, let us know in the comments below.

Thanks ahead of time,

-Red

And finally we round things out with reviews, Red creeps along with Tokyo Ghoul and Rio bashes the harem anime Trinity Seven. Hope you got your boots on, because you’reabout to get wet. No not like that, pervert.

VG Pulse 225: Silent Borderlands

This week on VG Pulse, we start out with the side note that we really have no side notes, before diving into quite a long discussion about companies trying to copyright words, as well as Millennium’s thoughts on why Konami might be doing what they’re doing, the state of affairs of Konami and Kojima’s split, and the sad state of affairs involved in the production of Silent Hills. After the news we have Xahldera step in to review Borderlands, and finish off with a very good and thoughtful discussion surrounding the last forum topic. All this and more up next on VGP 225! -Aki Continue reading “VG Pulse 225: Silent Borderlands”

Episode 448: Death.Zero

Hello everyone. Anime Pulse is back and Red is here to lead the way, this week he is joined by RyoWei247 from the community; or as she says we may call her “Rio.” After a brief introduction into the life of Rio, Red kicks things off with the news. This week have some articles like gigantic burgers, memes that resurface thanks to artists on Twitter, and an old ad for Weight Gain. Then it’s into the Discussion- oh wait, yeah, sadly that won’t be happening. The website was down, which means this weeks discussion thread will be moving into next weeks. Sorry about that folks, technical difficulties and all that. So Instead Red and Rio jump straight into reviews. Rio is up first with Death Parade, and Red finishes things off with the first season of Aldnoah.Zero. The race to be the new full-time cohost is almost up folks, so if you haven’t put your ballet in yet then get to it!
