This week on Anime Pulse we got the first of many vtuber TCG booster boxes, even more girlfriends, and at long last anime is ranked for real. Up first Joseph is sore from shoveling snow and excited for the upcoming vtuber card unpack stream/video, meanwhile Andrew asks the community their thoughts on the current season of anime. Then in the industry news anime finally gets an "official" top ranking list, and another stupid American in Japan causes trouble. And finally we end the previews with one gattai show as Joseph continues to collect girlfriends after falling asleep with an elf, and Andrew goes back in time to stop a robot from killing a younger version of himself.
