Ultimately, 13 Sentinels is more than just a game about giant robots fighting monsters; it is a profound exploration of human identity and the persistence of hope. It asks whether our memories define us and if we can break free from predetermined cycles. By the time the final credits roll, the game stands as a testament to the power of ambitious, unconventional storytelling in the medium.

At its core, the game is a daring narrative experiment. It follows thirteen protagonists across different eras—ranging from 1940s wartime Japan to a distant, sterilized future—whose lives intersect through the pilotable "Sentinels." By using a non-linear "Remembrance" mode, players piece together a fragmented mosaic of clones, time travel, and artificial intelligence. The brilliance lies in how Vanillaware manages these thirteen distinct threads; every time a player thinks they have grasped the "truth" of the world, a new perspective shift upends their understanding. 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim (NSP)(US)(Base Game) (2)...

13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim is a masterclass in non-linear storytelling that defies conventional genre boundaries. Developed by Vanillaware and directed by George Kamitani, the game represents a radical departure from the studio’s traditional fantasy roots, delivering a high-concept science fiction epic that pays homage to decades of mecha anime and kaiju cinema. Ultimately, 13 Sentinels is more than just a

Visually, the game is a triumph of the studio's signature hand-drawn aesthetic. The watercolor-inspired backdrops of 1985 Sakuraba City evoke a powerful sense of nostalgia, while the tactical "Destruction" mode offers a clean, digital contrast. While the combat shifts into a real-time strategy interface that looks like a high-tech command map, the weight of the narrative ensures that every battle feels high-stakes. At its core, the game is a daring narrative experiment

    I live in Canada, was wondering about shipping across borders, isn’t there a large amount of information I should know about customs/duties?

    I am building my store buy i am scared that my website is very ugly. I am not a great designer. Will customers buy from an ugly website?

    • 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim (NSP)(US)(Base Game) (2)... Greg Elfrink says:

      You will be surprised. Many ugly sites outperform pretty sites. I would split test it. You might not have the money right now to turn an ugly store into a pretty store, but as you are building up your store, hunt down some designers that CAN turn your store into a beautiful design. Then when you are ready, pull the trigger, and see what happens.

    I have an online store set up and ready to go. I’ve contacted a few manufactured who said they already have partnerships with online stores. Before I contact another manufacture, I want to know if there are SPECIFIC items I should emphasize in my pitch to them. What do they want from me that will make them want their products sold in my online store?

    • 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim (NSP)(US)(Base Game) (2)... Greg Elfrink says:

      Hey Keith!

      One thing you might try is to find out WHY they formed the partnerships with those online stores. Do they have a big audience? Some kind of leverage you’re not thinking of? If so, you might be able to duplicate that offer to those manufacturers who would then be more then happy to work with you.

    Hi, I have a website created but having a hard time finding good suppliers (and relatively inexpensive) for volleyball equipment to ship within the US states.

    I like drop ship lifestyle business but i want to know it fees first

    This was a great interview with Anton. I’m a member of Drop Ship Lifestyle, but this was the first time I had heard Anton say that he copies the supplier’s description first and then If the product gets traction he updates the description. Isn’t this risky because of a potential duplicate content penalty?

    • 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim (NSP)(US)(Base Game) (2)... Justin Cooke says:

      Hey Wes,

      Probably a bit of a risk/reward cost benefit analysis going on here. If the product’s a “hit” he’ll go back and build it out properly. If not, he can let it die.

      I think the worries about duplicate content get a bit overblown. Yes, if your entire site or article is an exact copy that’s not good – but copying product descriptions isn’t as risky as some think? Interested to hear Anton’s thoughts here.

    Absolutely outstanding episode! Great questions and high-value content. Anton is a trustworthy and knowledgeable guy I’d love to learn from. I finished listening only minutes ago and feel lightheaded thanks to all the ideas and exciting potential. I’m checking out the quickstart guide on his site now and will pull the trigger early next month ( It looks like I missed the Christmas sale by 11 minutes! – can’t win em all)

    I fit into one of the categories of people mentioned at the end of the episode. I’ve come to a point in my life where I have one overall goal and need a way to accomplish it – a lifestyle biz with a specific aim. All of the components are in place and its on me to boldly take action.

    Thanks Justin and Joe for this stellar episode, you guys continue to knock it outta the park.

    PS the site redesign is nice too : )

      Hey Brent,

      Glad you got so much value out of this one, man!

      I really think dropship sites are a good way to get started and Anton’s approach is extremely clear and relatively “easy” to follow. There’s plenty of work to do and a learning curve, but it’s not brain surgery and Anton does a great job of simplifying the process overall.

    Show 121 was awesome, awesome, awesome! Your conversation with Anton got me thinking not only about drop shipping but many other business areas. Epic episode!
