Well the request start coming and they don’t stop coming. And they don’t stop coming. And they don’t stop coming. And they don’t stop…brrrrrttt. Sorry. The vinyl was stuck again. That’s what happens when you buy your record player off of alibaba. I guess it’s back to eBay and estate sales because I’m not buying a nearly two thousand dollar Technics turntable.

Manga Pulse 463: Samwise Ninja

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

What’s this? I don’t know if it’s the booze or not but I’m seeing double. Two manga reviews in the same show? We take the heavy effort of picking up the books, reading them, then scrambling to get the equipment fired up and working. We might also develop some sort of opinion about them and apply a rating. Once we’ve wandered off into the weeds so far we’re finding golf balls.

Podcast: Play in new window | Download


This week on Anime Pulse we got Himalayan burgers, magical courtrooms, and technical difficulties in multiplayer. Up first is the usual IRL news as Joseph has finally moved forward in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and Andrew asks us for our top wizards/mages in anime. Then in the industry news it’s a solo helping from Joseph, as he wishes his digestive system was 10 years younger so he could partake of a stupid large burger. Finally in the tail end of the show the reviews wrap things up with Joseph revealing the true anime of year from 2021, and Andrew represents two separate yet equally important groups: The police, who investigate magical crime, and the district attorneys, who prosecute the wizards.

Manga Pulse 462: Burrito Hunting

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Let’s see. Bills. Junk mail. Offers to buy a house the show doesn’t own. Vote Romney for President? How long has it been since we’ve looked at our inbox proper? Not that long because we have some requests which we address. And much quicker than we do letters to the editor for some defunct BDSM magazine we keep getting.
