Manga Pulse 322: Witch Art Online

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

The show that almost didn’t happen because of cars. Damn you machines and your need for repairs! Why can’t you just be like Transformers and fix yourself without our intervention! Get on that Google peoples and make it snappy.

As with all requests, it sometimes takes a bit of search-fu to confirm that, no, we haven’t done that particular series. So Tim was left with no other choice than to review Sword Art Online. Which happens to be yet another series where people get sucked into an MMO. Which made Tim wonder if he hadn’t been visited by the head injury fairy recently. Because that’s the plot of at least two other manga he’s reviewed. Prepare for an angry Burn It discussion. Continue reading “Manga Pulse 322: Witch Art Online”

Popcorn Pulse 25: Hallow End

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Being as this was made and intended as a Halloween companion episode, or at least themed as such, we decided that a throwback into something within the horror genre would do. Which left us with the mere burden of choice. What to choose? A slasher or zombie flick would be expected though trite. We both abhor found footage and similar films so that left quite a few movies in the bin. Continue reading “Popcorn Pulse 25: Hallow End”

Manga Pulse 321: Boobs of Love

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

It’s that time again where the numbers in the episode line up in sequential order. Sure it’s descending but it’s still very satisfying. Like finding out that you’ve got no spare parts left over after assembling some flat packed furniture.

Within this mighty episode, Tim reviews Gokukoku no Brynhildr. We’re treated to a hard working student, wracked with guilt over the death of his childhood friend. When a girl shows up as a transfer student, groan, looking exactly like his dead friend, he’s understandably freaked out. Watch a promising manga being the slow slide into mediocrity as it slips into Crackers.

Weltall then reviews OKuSan. Wherein some mangaka decided to ask the bold question, “what if the large breasted character from any shonen manga was, get this, a bride who stayed at home and did fuck-all?” Thrill as she receives a washing machine and eventually learns to use it! No one will be seated for the chapter where she goes to the gym and signs up for crossfit! No one will be surprised when Weltall announces it’s placement on Borders.

Weltall: OKuSan – Read it at Borders
Not in the USA
Tim the Enchanter: Brynhildr in the Darkness – Wouldn’t kick it out of bed for crackers.
