First they hit up the news, talking about really old anime seeing the light of day once again and the manga you need to read if you want to become a masterchef! Then it’s onto the discussion thread, where this week we found out who liked a manga more then it’s anime counterpart after having seen the anime first. Finally we dive into reviews, TC handles the not-so-ghibli ghibli anime Sanzoku no Musume Ronja and Red discussesthe first season of Hitsugi no Chaika. Warning! Red is drunk! Warning!

We’re here once again to talk about the power of the dash. Some people prefer heat seeking missiles or the old fashioned machine guns but a quick burst of speed will always be our personal favorite. There’s nothing quite like punching it when someone attempts to come up from behind and leaving them in your wake. Continue reading “Manga Pulse 323: Hell Sword”

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

That’s right, we’re back! After sleeping off the Thanksgiving dinner we have returned to bring you the latest in news and reviews, or at least the latest news right behind Japan. Damn time zones. We talk about deaths in the anime industry, a cafe with less then subtle perverse dishes, and the exclusive Japanese Godzilla video game will be making it’s way to the states. Then it’s onto a Discussion Thread that is little more then left overs now, because it’s all about Thanksgiving! What anime characters would you bring to a Thanksgiving dinner? And finally, we warp the show up with reviews. Ichigo is first up to bat with a review of Akatsuki no Yona, then TC reviews the thieving Magic Kaito 1412, and Red reviews the sexually charged Kenzen Robo Daimidaler. Now hang on, because Red is bringing back the segment sound effects! That’s right, he’s actually doing something more then drinking and wishing a yandere would stab him with love. Be sure to let us know what you think of them, and any suggestions or comments on future show sound effects.

Popcorn Pulse 26: Chicago Adventures

Podcast: Play in new window | Download


In the great tradition of mashups comes a film from the nineties that takes Short Circuit and Friday the 13th and blends them without care for the end result. We do our joint review, based on a recommendation, on Evolver from 1995. And like all movies about technology from that decade, it features VR helmets and polygon graphics that would embarrass anyone who’s ever held a joystick.

Luckily for everyone, the main thrust of the film has little to do with shitty video games as imagined by a screenwriter who only has a fuzzy impression based on a round of Donkey Kong he watched the local kids play while washing his sheets at the laundromat. It is instead focused on a toy robot built by Q who decides that people suck and could use a little more hatchet in the face to make them right. The robot, Evolver, is then thwarted by the kid from Dutch and his designated love interest, the girl who was on one episode of Clarissa Explains It All.

Script 2 Script 1: New Beginings

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Hosted by Tim and Vanessa
Welcome to a new series wherein Tim and Vanessa discuss one of the most complicated and annoying issues. No, not that. So like, complicated and annoying within pop culture. No, not social issues within media. Something a bit more nitpicky.

Fine, we’ll just tell you. We’re talking about the adaptations of books over to film. Our discussions won’t be nitpicking the specific details unless we feel it impacts the plot, message or if we feel it was just too damn lazy.

For our inaugural episode, we decided upon Stardust. There’s plenty of talk about the movie, the history of the book/comic and some of the more unfortunate implications. We still maintain that Tristran’s mother is the most dangerous black magic practitioner this side of the wall. Continue reading “Script 2 Script 1: New Beginings”
