About this episode

The hosts discuss their recent experiences and dive into the first previews of the Spring 2026 anime season.

This week on Anime Pulse we got manga animated with texture rigging, getting down with the sickness, and anime to watch with aliens. Up first Andrew returns from his minor break to indulge us with his stories from the trip, and Joseph got a sinus infection and actually had to take a sick day off of work. Then we give a pass to industry news, because previews tend to run the show a little too long, but the community is still here with some Ayy LAMO. Lastly we're into a new season with new anime as Joseph east monsters, becomes a great sage, and is totally not banging his ninja-like companion. Andrew meanwhile becomes a North Star rooster who uses petals to reincarnate.
