This week on Anime Pulse we got Joseph passing on an isekai, the philosophy behind what counts as artificial life, and a really dumb looking ad. Up first the IRL news has Joseph excited for his new iMac, and Andrew asks us what our favorite robots in anime are. Then in the industry news we got a Joseph Sandwich with rice balls between a biscuit and America, was that a bit vague? Too bad! Listen to the show to understand what we’re talking about. And lastly is a return of the Gattai, as Joseph resurrects himself into a better isekai and Andrew becomes god.

Manga Pulse 461: Ugly Black

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Warning, awkward audio dips as we kept looking away from the mics. We made some adjustments to the output but it’s still going to be off a bit. Let’s say, hypothetically, you wanted to listen to a show. Also hypothetically, you had access to two of the most hinged people on the internet? Yes, I said hinged. These men, titans among capybaras, are the polar opposite of unhinged. They might even be standing right next to based. Also they have a pair of manga with reviews of each for you to enjoy.

If you were anywhere near a TV in the late nineties you were exposed to Ashton Kutcher and Sean Williams Scott shouting dude and sweet at each other. A gag which Tim swears goes on for a third of an eternity. That’s right, we’ve got a comedy today in the form of Dude, Where’s My Car[2000].

Manga Pulse 460: Dog Baby

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

There are twin cities out there. You have to be careful though because there are fraternal and paternal. Fraternal twin cities share a geography only. Paternal twin cities are ones that were originally founded by the same person but divided because of prohibition or some similar legal disagreement. Which is why New York and Los Angeles are so far apart. New York decided that living in a hole with rats was a perfectly fine core personality trait. Meanwhile LA disagreed and believed that being unable to drive was more important. So they broke apart and drifted off to the west coast. This leads us to a twin manga review.

Then in the industry news we get a Andrew sandwich, with topics like the possibility of a Netflix produced Scott Pilgrim anime and the downfall of Pachinko.
