Episode 776: Fall 2022 Previews #4

This week on Anime Pulse I’m alone and frightened. Joseph has gotten into the Halloween spirit and ghosted me (due to CO̶̰̯̩̔̒́͗̾͜VID). There’s talk of anime movies, new fantasy anime on the way, the Simpsons still existing and much more. For community I ask you what horror themed anime you can come up with but I discover in my previews, that the true h̴̻̩͖̳͆orror is the garbage romc̶̳̍̽̉͋ͅò̷̱͓̝̅̊͝m anime I watched along the way.

Manga Pulse 479: Giant Pumpkin

Gather up your rayon capes. Put on the elastic masks with the sharp mouth slot. And steal the classic Mickey D’s treat buckets from those obsessive collectors. It’s the spooky season and that means manga featuring all sorts of skellingtons and bones and all that autumn jazz. Or we might have just incidentally found manga that sort of fits by happenstance.

Then in the industry news it’s a meatless sandwich or a pizza if you will, as Andrew talks about Death Notes return and one of his #1 shows ever gets another season. Lastly in the previews the guys split off from joint work, and focus on solo stuff.

Manga Pulse 478: 100 Deaths

Like a little white rabbit, we’re late. But that’s just because we prefer it raw rather than wrapped. Caseless bratwurst is the tastiest and don’t let the haters tell you differently. There is a slight chance of food poisoning though. Especially if the cart you’re buying from is currently being raided by the FDA. Can’t beat the “going out of business because of the raid” deals though.
