This week on Anime Pulse we got Nagoya accents, exorbitant prices for Crunchyroll, and no show next week. Up first IRL news has Joseph reminding us that he will be in Florida next week, and Andrew asks us what our greatest anime achievement is. Then industry news hits us with a mangaka being arrested for touching middle school girls, a major piracy site bites the digital dust, and a chain of bookstores in the Down Under stop selling some very specific manga titles. Finally the reviews are back in full swing as Joseph reads us off some more Nagoya edition Snapple facts, and Andrew the cat lover argues with a dog lover until they yuri.
