Mindlessly blasting baddies is always a good way to wind down when you're not in the mood for something a little heavier.

As you might be able to tell from this week's podcast title, there's a lot of swearing and rhyming.

Pressure can mean a few different things; It's either force physically being exerted upon an object or a situation imparting emotional force to a person. Honor Code has expertly combined these two definitions into one game in Narcosis, a new

You would be forgiven if you looked at Rain World and expected a cutesy adventure starring a wide-eyed fuzzy creature. After all it appears that's what Videocult and [adult swim games] wants you to believe before you dive in. As

Actually, you can't blame us for turning Arizona into a frightening place. They're doing that all themselves.

Spring has sprung! I don't think the winter anime season was all that great, but we've got big name shows returning, and new shows to dig into. I'm satisfied with what we've gotten, and what's come back. Something of note this season is that Anime Strike, Amazon's exclusive anime channel, has snagged a few good exclusives, forcing yours truly to purchase a subscription. As a cord cutter, I'm still paying way less for my entertainment than cable subscribers. I just hope that I'm not forced to sign up for yet another anime site in the future.

Returning Favorites

Attack on Titan

There's no way to avoid the return of Attack on Titan, and I don't know why you would want to. Sure, AoT is more driven by its awe-inspiring moments and twists, but there are few who are uninterested in what happens to Eren and the Survey Corps. In the few episodes shown this season, I think my jaw has dropped further down than it did during Season 1. It's so good!

My Hero Academia

The one-two punch of One Punch Man and My Hero Academia stunned me. It was anime's commentary on superheroes, in two distinct styles. That was a lot of awesome to take in. One Punch will come when it comes, but My Hero Academia is back! The students have survived their first super villain attack, but they still have to prove they have what it takes to be superheroes. The first arc has them competing against each other in a super-powered sports festival.

The Eccentric Family

I dearly love The Eccentric Family. The first season was a spectacular story of tanuki and tengu who coexist with humans in modern times. I don't think there is one character who I liked less than the others. Each character has a personality and role to play that feels necessary to the world. The new season introduces a new character, and he's a great addition. He is a tanuki, and tanuki are very powerful in this world. I cannot wait for the conflict- and the fun!

Berserk

The new Berserk series is an incredible example of something deserving of a second chance. I can understand that people gave up on 2016's Berserk simply because they hate 3D CG, didn't like the poor level of animation, or both. The story is still great, and that's why I want to support the new Berserk for as long as possible.

Runners-up

Sakura Quest

Adulting is rough. Sometimes you might find yourself taking jobs that you don't fit with. That's part of Sakura Quest's premise. At first, Koharu Yoshino is in this predicament, where she's being rejected for all the jobs she wants to have. Then she, through error, gets hired to be the queen of a town who want to revitalize their tourism economy. I may watch more of this, but it's hard for me to finish a slice of life show if it doesn't have a strong emotional thrust.

One of the best things about Telltale's take on The Walking Dead has always been making difficult decisions. I'll often find myself struggling with deciding what might be the best choice in these games, even with this third season. Episode

The biggest news thus far in 2017 about video gaming has been the overwhelming introduction of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The Sistahs have not been immune to the hype, either. As a result, they devote the entirety of this week's show to the Zelda game.

It's far past due for Star-Lord and the gang to get their own video game. For the past few years Telltale Games has shown they can adapt comics of many ranges for the gaming realm, be it The Walking Dead,

As the saying goes, the more things change, the more they stay the same. And that old saying is very much in evidence around the ESH hacienda this week.
