Visual Novels are something I’ve been enjoying more and more over time. I’ve got a few of them on my list, but I was lucky enough to be given this game as a gift from a friend. He didn’t care for it but figured I would. Turns out he was right and this one was a god damn ride from start to finish. Was it a good one though? Well after the cut, let’s dive into 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim and find out.
Hey Guys.
Well 2023 is here and I think it is time to sit down and do some housekeeping on the blog. Talk about where we are and where we are going. What can you expect in the next few months? Well let’s get into it all after cut!
It’s Monday, which means it is time for this! Welcome back to Don’t @ Me! The place where, like the new year. I ring in stuff as I go over my thoughts, views and opinions on everything in the anime and manga world. This week well, the holidays are finally fucking over so now we can kick back and relax. Let’s get into it all after the cut.
It’s Monday, which means it is once again time for this! Welcome back to Don’t @ Me! The place where, like Dennis on a boat. It’s all because of the implication as I give my thoughts, views and opinions on everything in the anime and manga world. This week I got another visual novel coming, and there is other shit! Let’s get into it after the cut!
It’s Monday, which means it is time for this! Welcome back to Don’t @ Me! The place where, like my body. I pull myself out of bed and a coughing fit to give you my thoughts, views and opinions on everything in the anime and manga world. This week I’m sick in bed, but the show must go on! Let’s get to it after the cut!
This is a series I’ve been meaning to get to for years. When the news of the remake came out I knew that it would be something I wanted to check out. A series that so many fans adore, yet seems to have vanished into the annals of time. A part of the Nasuverse that has spawned a billion dollar franchise, yet has next to no name recognition. Now that it has come out though, does it stand up to expectations? Or should it have been kept where it was. Well after the cut, let’s take a dive into the first route of Tsukihime: A Piece of Blue Glass Moon and find out.
It’s Monday which means it is time for this! Welcome back to Don’t @ Me! The place where, like we all wish we can do one day, I throw around billions while giving out my opinions on the anime and manga world. Except this week there is no much to talk about in regards to anime, so we are going to talk about some other shit! Sit back, crack open a cold one and let’s get into it!
I’ve been examining the couples of Fate/Stay Night for a while now, and as we wrap up our look at all the current Fate properties (except those that came out last year). It is time to turn our attention to the final main couple of the first series. I would say we saved the best for last, but sadly that isn’t going to be the case. Still that doesn’t mean there isn’t stuff to talk about. So after the cut let’s take a character dive into the relationship of Shirou Emiya and Saber.
My thoughts on the relationship of Shirou Emiya and Rin Tohsaka are right here!
My thoughts on the relationship of Shirou Emiya and Sakura Matou are right here!
This week will mark the 3rd anniversary of Shallow Dives in Anime! I can’t believe that much time has passed, and frankly, I can’t believe that I’ve managed to keep it up.
Three years in, I’ve been shocked at how well the blog has done. It has always been a passion project of mine, something I used to get my thoughts out in the world instead of letting them stew in my mind. I haven’t set out to re-write the book on blogging, or give out some great, grandiose thoughts on this or that anime. I’ve just been a dude attempting to throw out his opinions on shows he likes, and perhaps do so with an honest and open mind.
That honest and open mind has, over the three years solidified into the real purpose of this blog. Hyperbole, cliquishness and arrogance is all over the place, and people would rather twist the words of this or that show to fit their viewpoints, instead of seeing things for what it is. I have tried to do the opposite. I don’t see anime for what it wants to be, I see anime for what it is. To cut through the bullshit and deliver points that are short, sweet and get to the gist of the matter.
Whether it is the brutal truth surrounding Wonder Egg Priority. Going to bat for Gundam SEED, talking about difficult ideas revolving Fate/Illya’s Kuro. Admiring the sheer courage of Redo of Healer. Trying to split the difference over Faye Valentine, or seeing what is good in shows that may not be. I’ve approached every anime that has crossed this blog, good or bad, sweet or sour, with a measure of fairness. There is very little I will not talk about on this blog, and whatever does come up almost always has something special to share.
As always I have many people to thank: Crow, Irina, Lynn, Scott, Yomu, Pete, Jon Spencer,, iniksbane and infinitezenith for always being there for chat or comment. And most of all to you. If you have taken the time to look at one of my posts, leave a like, or even a comment. Know that you have always brought a smile to my face. and warmth to my heart.
So here is to three years of Shallow Dives in Anime. You can look forward to the Thursday post with the celebration review. One that has been a long, long time coming. I am very interested in seeing what people think, but for now, all I can say is this.
Thank you for reading my blog.
Hey guys
