Tensokuu posted:... And what was the Shirou question? (I was going to ask you on Twitter but forgot) I was wondering the same thing, and found this: quote:Q: After reading Fate/Stay Night, I was under the impression that Shirou was more burnt after the fire than how he was shown at the end of Fate/Zero.…[panel is a bit unsure how to answer, mic gets passed from Iwakami to Aoki] it looked like all he needed was to take a shower. The answer was along the lines of "We wanted to avoid overly grotesque images." After hearing how spergy the question was, I was honestly expecting it to be something like "How could Shirou kill Gilgamesh?"

It should be noted that he had to repeat it like 4 times for the translator because of just how spergy/poorly phrased the whole thing was (I mean, "more burnt" wtf, why wouldn't you just say like "his injuries seemed more severe").

I say with no small amount of shame that I'm unsurprised by that question (or that kind of question rather). In terms of level of fan , Nasu's stuff is basically Japanese Star Trek.

A bit of an odd thing to say, considering all the stuff with Kariya.

I think they just came up with that answer because they couldn't think of anything else to say to a question like that.Although the fact that they replaced Ryuunosuke's horrific tuning fork scene with a much shorter and somewhat less gory scene proves that even on the Blu-Rays they really didn't want to go too far. e: Speaking of horrifying, does anyone know the source to this Sader comic? I really want to read the rest.

Factor_VIII posted:What I found interesting is that Shirou does maintenance work on Raiga's bike in exchange for an allowance. I would have imagined that his code would have caused him refuse to work for the head of a criminal syndicate even if he is Taiga's grandfather. Kiritsugu was a hired assassin, and that didn't stop Shirou from worshiping him. Meanwhile Raiga is basically just as eccentric as Taiga, so I imagine his yakuza isn't the deadliest thing around.

Also, as shown with Shinji, Shirou always thinks the best of people well beyond the point where it's reasonable. Shirou is only slightly better than Tokiomi in this regard.

So I finally got around to watching the last episode. This loving show is quite possibly the most depressing thing I have ever seen. The only characters who come out of this happy are Kirei and Waver; one of them is completely batfuck insane and the other still has a really bittersweet ending.

I think Silver meant that Kariya died happy because he lived his last moments in his fantasy world, thinking he got everything he wanted. I don't think anyone will argue that, in reality, Kariya actually died on a happy note.

So I watched Fate/Zero and am now on the Fate/Stay night visual novel.Something i've wondered is how much of the game is changed based off what choice and what route you take? The last 25 percent?

Kneel Before Zog posted:So I watched Fate/Zero and am now on the Fate/Stay night visual novel.Something i've wondered is how much of the game is changed based off what choice and what route you take? The last 25 percent? You can't do the Rin route (Unlimited Blade Works) before finishing Saber's, and you can't do Sakura's (Heaven's Feel) before finishing Rin's. About 95% or so of the routes are different from each other. The only identical part in all cases is most of the first three days, although once you finish the Rin route you have to trigger several new scenes in the first three days to access Sakura's route. In other words, Fate/stay night is essentially a story told as three different stories.

The last 25 percent? Choices will have effects within routes, too, sometimes giving you a choice of several different scenes, sometimes giving you a dead end. Every route also has at least one check towards the end to see if you've paid enough attention to that route's heroine. (Some choices will give you hidden points, if you don't have enough you get a dead end) If you're like me and are obsessive about seeing every scene just track down a copy of the flowchart (I think the english patch might even include it in the file directory?) and use that as a guide. Many of the dead ends are worth seeing, anyway. The Tiger Dojo segments are amusing and one or two are even compared by some fans to the official endings rather than simple game overs. But yeah, you're forced to do the three routes in order the first time you play through. They start to diverge pretty sharply soon after Saber's summoned. Stick it up through the Fate Route, the game gets better as you go along. And install the Realtua Nua patch if you haven't for voices and additional graphics at a couple good points.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm18212898 http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm18259095 Someone on Niconico estimated the financial damages caused by the 4th Holy Grail War and who was responsible for them. Prices in yen unless noted. 1. Team Saber - 49,738,404,210 2. Young Kiritsugu - 11,605,513,400 3. Team Caster - 10,100,082,500 4. Team Lancer - 10,013,700,000 5. Team Rider - 2,921,535,285 6. Team Archer - 135,646,375 7. Team Berserker - 111,126,384 8. Tousaka Rin - 13,230 9. Assassin - 13,200 For a grand total of 84,626,021,354 yen, or about $1.061 Billion at current exchange rates. More than half of which can be attributed to Kiritsugu.

Don't forget the massive stretch of road and flooding damage that must have resulted from Excaliblasting Casterthulu. VVV Naw that's Young Kiritsugu. Not that he really needed Saber's help to rack up a giant bill. Pierson fucked around with this message at 15:57 on Jul 4, 2012 |

He took out an F-16 (which is already more than a million USD weapons included), a truck, and Saber's bike, at least. What else? A light pole at the dock? I guess the fire in the parking lot would be redundant since the whole building gets taken out anyway?

It's not exactly a Ufotable animated Heaven's Feel TV series, but apparently they just announced a Vita port of Realta Nua and have Ufotable listed for Animation Production, so maybe we'll get an OP movie or something by them? Will this be released in America? Hahahaha of course not.
