This week on Anime Pulse we got Joseph’s first drop of the season, idiots terrorizing sushi restaurants, and what counts as an animal in anime. First up IRL news has Joseph not really saying too much, and Andrew posting the shot topic on the day of the show so it felt a little rushed with the answers. Then in the industry news a man tries to get his charges lowered by claiming he only groped one boob, Netflix’s AI is in hot water for being too like the Matrix, and how would you like it if you had to wear a skirt in winter? Lastly are the previews as Joseph becomes a gender-bending ninja who fights against RomComs, and Andrew, besides posting the show topic so late, is transformed into a girl by his little sister before he can mater the blade.

Hey kids, do you like Cyperpunk? You like leather coats and techno-futuristic dystopias? How about nifty gadgets rendered in kludgy props that are clearly repurposed electronics? We’ve got a movie for you then. No, it’s not Blade Runner. Either or. Instead we have Strange Days(1995).
