Ze Shows Anime Pulse

Bubble trouble? Prepare for muggle and make is subtle. It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense but we’ve already used the Team Rocket speech in an intro as well as quoting the witches from Macbeth. Also coupons and buy one get one free. It’s been hell of a week and we just sort of phone it in once in awhile. Plus, how many of you read this anyway? Cue angry emails about everyone who actually sees these descriptions. Tim has a revisit to Skeleton Double. He’s still annoyed at the translated terms like “unique blood” and “skeletonized”. The chapters since then have a bit of a fight between madam … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 489: Skeleton Panties"

You know what makes a movie work? Like really, really work? Is it well directed acting? A strong sense of shot composition or perhaps lighting? No, you film school snob. What makes a movie good is having a long dead pan voice over which lays out the setup and premise. Lucky for use there’s a great movie in Red Planet[2000]. The year is sometime in the future and something about climate or disease is wrecking the earth. You can’t be bothered to care because Carrie Ann Moss delivers it like a Starbucks order. A bunch of space folks are off to Mars because it’s being terraformed but all the greenery … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 193: Mash Potatoes"

And finally in the reviews Joseph sets fire to a farming isekai he grew bored with, and Andrew is hugging his shadow while yelling KEIITO-SAMA!

Everyone likes to save a buck here and there. Some people do that by reusing things like sandwich bags. Others will take trips to the outlet mall and stock up on irregulars. To that end, you should stock up on our irregular reviews. By that we mean imperfect and not off of a proper schedule. Though we do sometimes have scheduling changes. Because we are imperfect but we try harder. Tim has Galaxy Express 999 in honor of the now late Meiji Matsumoto. It’s a unique style for even the seventies where a deformed homunculus named Tetsuo lives on earth with his mother. They’re freezing and dreaming of having robot … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 488: No Express"

This week on Anime Pulse we got Big Brother sushi, a surprising pick of a favorite character, and the series we are befuddled that have not received an anime adaptation.

Alright ladies. Get your makeup on, your teeth polished, and your tits waxed. Except you, Miss Sicily. You’re just doing what you can with what god gave you. While we’re waiting for them to get their act together, we’ve got a movie in the vein of the beauty industry. We’ve got the mockumentary, Drop Dead Gorgeous(1999). It’s centered on a small town’s beauty contest that feeds into a larger national one. Kind of like a Dollar General version of Miss America. There’s more than a few jokes about small towns in the Midwest and then someone starts killing off potential contestants. There’s a twist you might not see coming and … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 192: Fierce Dead"

How many organs do people need actually? If you know and are some sort of organ expert, we need your feedback. Apparently the local prosecutor has decided that local children and obnoxious adults need ALL of them. They were clearly not using them based on their social media post history. When you repost MLM scams you’re signaling to the world that your kidneys are free to a good home. Onto the manga, Tim has Skeleton Double. Arakawa’s dad dies by sudden impalement in a cross walk. Eight years later, a skull with exclamation points gets delivered in a box to his door. The skull offers him the ability to turn … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 487: Double Sister"

Before the made for streaming movies there were made for TV movies. Those still exist if you count Hallmark and other channels. Most are crap but every once in a while someone would put a nice modest budget together and see what happens. Which is how we got The Park Is Mine(1985) from HBO. We open with a man at the top of a hospital, yelling about no one listening. He jumps to his death. In comes Tommy Lee Jones who plays a Vietnam war veteran. The jumper was his friend and had set up a bunch of ammo caches around Central Park and a plan for shutting it down. … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 191: Tundur Park"

You think we like money? We’ve got all sorts of soft reboot tie ins that piss right in your eye. So, whadaya say? Wanna drop your life savings on remembering the good times? Tim has The Legends of Luke Skywalker The Manga. Yes, that is the whole title sitting on the the cover. Like a Japanese light novel, it’s exactly what it says in the title.

Hey, I can hear the music that you’re listening to down there. Knock three times on the ceiling if you want a review. Was that a thump or a shout? Either way, we’re interpreting that as a sign to go forward with a couple of movie reviews. We kick off with a movie from the same people that can’t stop making the same phone over and over, The Greatest Beer Run Ever[2022]. It’s based on a true story about a dude from New York. He was friends with some guys who were out in Vietnam during the war. He makes a drunken boast that he’d run beer out to his … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 190: Dead Beer"
