He is now. In the original without the retcons of the other works it was pretty good with glaring issues. My main one being that timeline shit because it has no consequences at all for Redman. He can kill Shirou in any timeline and it does nothing so why bother? This isn't even his timeline to begin with. If it did and it was the route he went down (and he recognized that, thus the whole murder/suicide) it would have made infinitely more sense. Still, the original Tsukihime is very good if you skip the sex scenes

I actually liked the bittersweetness of UBW. He gets his moment of peace and it's left unsaid that he goes back into the chaos of the nonstop battlefield. The progression of Fate to UBW, and then when you get to Heaven's Feel, he has enough of the edge shaved off that he'll willingly pass the torch for Shirou live for himself. You just have to accept that there's enough of a haze between the routes that the character himself is reset enough through the main segments.

I agree. It was one of the first VNs I got into, and I still remember that moment during the Kohaku route where Shiki meets up with Roa as strangers in the night, and they have a nice chat about murder stuff over coffee.

Nasu can't write something like this anymore.

I believe Kagetsu Tohya expands on that with Drinking Dreaming Moon (something like that) where SHIKI and Shiki (fucking kill me) have a heartfelt conversation

As for UBW, while I enjoyed that Shirou understood that he was becoming Archer and still chose it. It means his fate is not set anymore, whereas it would have been should Archer have not interfered. But that doesn't excuse the bullshit time rules. It takes a story of someone coming to tell their future self to not take this path and makes it "Oh yeah, I did nothing like what you're doing here and it won't matter at all if I kill you but I'm going to anyway and try to gaslight you into killing yourself. Even though you're not me and it wouldn't change anything. Because fight scene."

There is no evidence the guy who visited Eren's grave with Mikasa and the child is Jean. Mikasa died a virgin.

Wooo, Kenichi returns. I assume flop of "Sora e" and success of "Gash bell 2" from fellow Champion( oops, Sunday, I think I have trouble to differentiate weeklies other than Jump) author might affected him. I hope sequel will be as horny as original.

It's more a matter of causality. Shirou took the contract with Gaia and that became an established fact. It wouldn't matter if Kiriu didn't save him as a kid, EMIYA still exists. What's needed is a firm rejection of the entity known as EMIYA. Shirou needs to be brought to the edge of desperation, be given the choice between sacrificing himself and letting people suffer, and refuse his ideal to cause the paradox. The paradox wouldn't otherwise even if Shirou doesn't linearly become EMIYA.
It's like a battle of egos, or your innate human being. A selfish Shirou is like a Fragarach to the gay bulge.
Kind of like how Shiji is always a bit of a jerk no matter the scenario.

This is still under my understanding of Counter Force being summoned back and forth across time, as opposed to Throne where they're a stateless immutable database of the mythos of the hero. The hero then being cloned out under special circumstances and in terms of the Grail War, they're nerfed, hammered and reshaped into the class format. I liked the distinction.

They had better get to the fucking goddess time travel arc this season... Unfortunately/Fortunately(?) I think Madhouse is gonna try to go the demon slayer movie route for El Dorado. They probably want to milk the series for all its worth + the manga is retardedly slow. Not sure I'm on board with that, though the visuals will probably be amazing.

So fucking sick of particle effects in anime.

It's like the flashing lines in the background. It's a cheap way to make the scene appear more animated than it actually is. In my opinion, it feels cheap because it is cheap. When you take away the particles and the beams of light, most of that scene is just mouth flaps and standing.

It is really funny to see you seethe for six weeks straight and will continue to do for even more years.

It is time to let it go man, it isn't doing well for you.

This week I did read Kacchu no Senshi Gamu, a shonen jump manga from 1988.

It had at the same time: sengoku era warfare, ninjas, dogs, psychic/esper dogs, assassination, historical characters, loyalty, samurai, family murder, super powers in just two tankobon volumes.

Of course it was made by the single most dog mangaka from japan of Weed/Ginga/Silver

The man who hates bears and loves dogs. And somehow the story concluded in an ok manor to being shonen jump 2 volumes series
