Ze Shows Anime Pulse

The nineties had a window in ninety four where villains had to one man armies with overly clever gadgets. One such entry is Blown Away(1994). Tommy Lee Jones plays a leather coin purse who was an IRA member in jail. He’s a master bomb maker who escapes prison and heads to Boston for revenge. Jeff Bridges plays a member of the bomb squad who was once also in the IRA. Jones blames him for being in jail as Bridges realized the bomb maker planned to blow people up and turned him in. So there’s a lot of explosive set pieces though it drags on way too long. On the upside, it’s nice … Continue reading Popcorn Pulse 117: Blown →

No that's not Jack Front nipping at your nose, it's a new season of anime that blew in with the breath from old man winter. And what a frigid wasteland of selections it is! At least for Joseph that is. Andrew on the other hand seems to have let his inner child run free and is enjoying making snow angels and snow forts, while Joseph watches from inside like a grumpy old man sipping coffee while wrapped in several robes and counting his gold coins. Of course before we address the lack of isekai and harems, the IRL news has Joseph talking about a new manga he's reading and wrapping up XCOM 2. Andrew on the other hand is looking to hear from our community, and his question is what you're planing on watching. Industry news hits us with low wage earnings for Pokemon animators, and a mangaka starting up a fund for a traditional Japanese card game. And lastly come the first round of previews, as Joseph plunders a lamia's goods and Andrew makes a contract to become a magical ghost idol.

Feeling a dozen times better than he did last week, Joseph returns to bring you another episode of Anime Pulse. Joined as always by his faithful cohost, the two talk about their resolutions for 2020, lawsuits against Cloudflare, and putting your little sister in a box.

First up IRL news has Joseph coughing and hacking into the New Year, and Andrew wants us to clarify what anime from 2019 were the best and worst. Afterwards the two dig into some industry news, with boobie-less blood drives failing to attract and the best of the best according to Funimation netizens. And lastly come the first reviews of 2020, as Joseph gets pulled into an isekai with a milf and Andrew never skips leg day.

It’s easy to forget that Tom Hardy was in Venom(2018). This could be because Tom Hardy has played a lot of roles where a mask covers parts of his face making him hard to remember. Or it could be that nobody remembers this movie. It’s what you get when someone tells you that you have to make a Spiderman movie minus Spiderman. It covers the well known origins of the Venom symbiote being brought back from space by J. Jonah Jameson’s son. For reasons the movie isn’t clear on, there are a few more symbiotes. One of them bonds to the bad guy who wants to retrieve more of their race … Continue reading Popcorn Pulse 115: Venom Cries →

Can manga be anime or is anime manga? Is corn grass? Take some egg crates and stable some wild flowers to it. Now you’ve turned your garbage into something no one wants and wasted precious ?resources. All to keep yourself or maybe a child busy for a few seconds. Why not just light money on fire and watch it burn? Tim has Ajin – Demi Human. In a world without Lafontaine to narrate its trailer, there are humans. Some of them are mystical creatures called Ajin. There are only about hundred of them an they tend to only get discovered once they get mortally wounded as that’s when their powers activate. Kei, … Continue reading Manga pulse 410: Demi Devil →

Ho ho ho, merry Animemas everyone. It's a holiday fueled episode of Anime Pulse this week, where the spirits flow very much like the alcohol being consumed. Up first IRL news get Joseph flaunting his time off from work, and Andrew has us look back at some of the worst anime we have watched in the past decade. Afterwards the two head into industry news, with topics like an indie film about the sad sad lives of Mangakas and Made in the Abyss taking a joke to its limits. And then the review close out the show, and Joseph hands out coal to the bad little cheat magicians and Andrew uses his elf magic to save the lolis.

Stephen King has a long history with adaptations of his work. No small amount of it has been decent to good books being turned into movies that are best described as “free, please take”. Is this a problem with trying to cram a book big enough to beat a rhino into submission into ninety minutes? We attempt to find out by watching Mangler and Cat’s Eye. The Mangler is, inexplicably, a movie based on the short story about a laundry machine that gets possessed. The story is quaint and functional considering that it was written in the seventies for a fiction magazine. The movie though is a pure mess with Robert Englund … Continue reading Script 2 Script 23: King and King →
