This week on Anime Pulse we got the return of Nichijou, day 5 of recovery from oral surgery, and communication disorders. Up first Joseph is hoping no kids show up as they roam the streets looking for candy on Halloween, and Andrew asks us who our favorite masked anime characters are. Then in the industry news a big Chinese company owns a decent percentage of a Japanese publishing company, and the event organizers are asking otakus to get in shape for the upcoming return of Comiket. Lastly we have another round of previews with Joseph helping his tiny office kohai earn 100 friends, and a vampiric Andrew dies very easily on his way to outer space.
