This week on Anime Pulse we got an end to endless cookies, preventative maintenance, and a very mid summoner. Up first Joseph is ready to enjoy a three day weekend as he has the suspension in his car replaced, and Andrew is asking us what our least and most favorite instances of Deus Ex in anime are. Then in the industry news we cover topics like the passing of another great anime and manga author, some anime award announcements, and bird flu killing an offer on delicious cookies. And lastly in the reviews Joseph is pretty unenthused about being isekai'd into an anime adaptation, and Andrew goes full Super Saiyan God mode on an overgrown cat's ass.
