This week we dive into shark-infested waters! Tread carefully, for Death Herself abides here. The Ancient Ones beckon you to come closer. At the end, a chance for rebirth. Time traveling detective.
That's right, we're talking about the Vtuber explosion that is taking over YouTube. Chris and Suede have succumbed to the anime waifus and discuss their (very) short journeys from curious viewers to die-hard simps. What are Vtubers? Who are Vtubers? Why are Vtubers? All this, and more, in this episode of Deep Anime Dive!
Time Stamps:
(0:00 - 1:39) Introduction
(1:40 - 9:43) Hot Topical
Chris and Suede talk about the upcoming 4th Evangelion movie as well as the recently released Demon Slayer movie. Chris is super excited.
(9:44 - 31:48) Fall 2020 Anime Season, Initial Impressions
Suede gives his 'Episode 1' impressions on The Great Pretender, Wandering Witch Elaina, Moriarty the Patriot and Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear. Almost all of them had very promising starts. The bear one might be a dud.
Chris watched Yashahime, Tonikawa, Haikyu's newest season, and Love Live Series 3. He'll be watching them all to the end, though he laments that the newest Love Live isn't living up to the previous series.
(31:48 - 1:23:19) Vtubers, Vtubers, Vtubers
Chris explains why it's his fault we got into this mess in the first place. He describes his First Contact and subsequent journey into the abyss. Suede's life is also ruined. We discuss our current, favorite Vtubers. Suede passionately defends the Holostars (Izuru is best cat boy). By the end, we thoroughly destroy any credibility we once had as rational humans.
(1:23:19 - 1:28:50) Conclusions

Guilty Pleasures - Shame on You, Your Family, and Your Cow
We all have at least one, right?
Maybe it's from a genre you usually avoid. Maybe it's a little controversial. Maybe it's known for having more plot than actual story (if you know what I mean). Maybe it's just outright bad. Whatever the case, we all have shows we're a little less proud of enjoying, but no more!
This episode, we take a look at some of our favorite shows of ill repute! From shows made for kids to shows made by 4Kids; from basic trash to outright dumpster fires, these are our guilty pleasures!
*This episode was originally recorded and set to be published on March 25th, 2021. Due to audio mishaps and Suede not being overly eager to bring more shame on his family, release was noticeably delayed. We apologize for any inconvenience.*
