This week on VGP, happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate it!! We start off with side notes of dentist appointments and general weariness from working retail in the fall season, before diving into the not-terribly-shocking news that Activision CEO Bobby Kotick is an absolute scumbag to the highest degree, before diving into Rockstar’s absolutely embarrassing showing of the GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition, as well as the surprising news that Six Days In Fallujah is still a thing!

Then another short bit of industry news, covering the updated rules to gaining entry to this years Comiket. And finally we have a Gattai show as Joseph stops caring about a slime isekai, and Andrew gets a loli wife after he joins a magical high school for spicy girls.

Murgh. Meh? What time is it? Shit, it wasn’t fall forward? I sword it was spring back and fall the other direction. Give us like five minutes then to grab a manga or something and power read through it. I’m sure we won’t screw up the details because we’re scrambling to get this done. Tim starts up with Levius. Not Levius Est which is much easier to find. It’s some sort of magitech style future past where there was a war. It ended when steam cyborgs started fighting people and now the world resolves things through MMA. That is mechanical martial arts. The title character, Levius, is one of those … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 458: Levitating Alice"

Lastly is our final previews dedicated show as Joseph continues his reincarnated job as a master thief, and Andrew is suddenly surrounded by beautiful office ladies with very large breasts.

Uncover your smokers and slap your meat, we’ve got more Frank Grillo. See because his last name is Grillo and it’s kinda like grill. So what if this time he was a sort of political fixer in Vegas and he was trying to turn himself over to the feds for protection? That’s where we start in Copshop[2021]. Of course this means that he’s now a target for the people he was working for. As it turns out that mafia types don’t really care for their crimes to be exposed. Enter Gerard Butler as Bob. Bob gets himself arrested right after Grillo so he can try and get to him. This leads to some … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 162: Shopping Cop"

Lastly we have another round of previews with Joseph helping his tiny office kohai earn 100 friends, and a vampiric Andrew dies very easily on his way to outer space.

You might look behind me and see what appears to be a mound. I assure you it;s actually much more architecturally impressive that it seems. You see, excavations have revealed this is the site where the unsold copies of Princess AI were piled. Note the faint remains of bloodstains on these pages. This indicates the sacrifices the locals made to banish Stu and his creation back to the reaches of what we might think of as hell. Tim has Dandadan. It takes place in a high school where our protagonist, Momo, stops a nerd from being picked on. This leads them to an argument on whether spirits, which Momo believes in, or aliens, which … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 457: Giga Dan"

Breakout your cheesecloth. Chill your rolling pins. Break out your stock and get the wooden spoon out of the bathroom. We’ve got a cook’s tale with Under Siege(1992). Plus we have Gary Busey wearing a dress and screaming at people. Steven Segal is a ships cook aboard the USS Missouri. It’s on its final trip before being decommissioned. For some reason, it still has functional Tomahawk missiles aboard. Tommy Lee Jones plays some vague terrorist who’s conspiring with Busey to takeover the ship, kill the resistance, and sell the nukes for fun and profit.

I bet you can feel a little something in the air. No, no the slight chill that’s not driven away by the light of day. Nor the soft sigh of wind as it carries leaves right into your yard not moments after you raked the last damn pile. It’s the time of the week where we review manga instead of movies. It does happen though. Tim starts off with Finger Girls. It’s a manhua that is not about a random groper who offers surprise gynecological exams on the subway. Our guy is average and has a crush who wants to meet him on the roof in the morning. Unfortunately his life has been … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 456: Finger the World"
