Eventually, I got so far into it I started to see things at the corner of my eye, and sometimes think there was noises outside of my window. It got to the point that every blond woman I saw for a split second sort of reminded me of Saber which made my heart sink. It was just a crazy experience.

Why is Saber such a useless slut?

>>118673150
Roland as Berserker sort of like Spartacus in Apocrypha but instead of always going on about oppressors, he wants to kill all muslims.

I want Don Quixote
Copypasta
Servant: Rider
True Name: Alonso Quixano, "Don Quixote"

Appearance:
A dark-skinned Spanish gentleman in his late 30s, Rider has neck-length dark brown hair and a light goatee, accentuating a cheerful but disturbingly unfaltering smile. He wears a white tunic and pantaloons, along with faded and dented wine-red armor over his chest and one of his arms and legs (mismatched). A tattered wide-rimmed wine-red hat sits atop his head, accentuated by a single feather that upon closer examination belongs to a common Spanish pigeon rather than any noble breed.

Note: Representing his delusions of knighthood, Rider's general appearance and weapon are poor imitations of the "Lancer" card.

Statistics
Noble Phantasm: B
Strength: D
Endurance: E
Agility: D
Magic: E
Luck: E

Class Skills:
Riding
Rank: C
The expertise to ride animals and vehicles. Due to a lack of training, most vehicles can be handled with only average skill. However, he cannot ride the likes of Phantasm Races or more complex vehicles.

Magic Resistance
Rank: D
Cancel Single-Action spells. Magic Resistance of the same degree of an amulet that rejects magical energy.

Personal Skills:
Charisma
Rank: E-
Natural talent to command an army. At this rank, he is charming but completely untrustworthy, and may only be able to convince a few foolish individuals to follow him into battle.

Mental Pollution
Rank: D
Due to possessing a distorted mentality, Mental Pollution makes it highly possible to shut out any mental interference Thaumaturgy. However, at the same time it becomes impossible to come to an understanding with individuals that do not possess an equivalent rank of mental pollution. Rider is resolute in his convictions against all evidence to the contrary and is extremely difficult to discourage or correct even when obviously mistaken.

If his Noble Phantasm isn't a windmill made of shitty lances that just crushes the opponent instead of stabbing them I'm going to be very disappointed with you.

>>118674916
Noble Phantasms:
Dulcinea - Tilting the Balance of All Things
Type: Anti-Unit
Rank: B
Representing the madness and chivalry that infected Don Quixote's entire world view, Dulcinea allows Rider to force his own perceptions of the world on anyone he engages in combat with. When Rider recognizes an enemy as his opponent, his concept of honorable battle equalizes his attributes with that of his opponent, plundering the strength of his opponent until they are as weak as he is in all attributes. Because the effect is instanteous, his enemy typically does not recognize the effect on their own body, only perceiving Rider as their equal in skill and power.

Activation of this Noble Phantasm is automatic, enforcing his perception upon the opponent the moment he recognizes them as an opponent, but the effect is limited by Rider's personal chivalric code. For example, because he is unable to regard a fleeing opponent as his enemy, disengaging from battle cancels the effect. Furthermore, he believes that relying on others to help him fight his battles is dishonorable, so invocation of this Noble Phantasm is negated if Rider receives any outside assistance whatsoever. Because the power is triggered by recognition, Rider must be aware of his opponent in order for this Noble Phantasm to apply, rendering him particularly vulnerable to sneak attacks and deception.
1/2

Wait, scratch D'Artagnan, I want Richard the Lionheart for Saber. It'd be pretty goddamn awesome to have him no matter the class

>>118675100

Rocinante - The Greatest Yesterday Comes Tomorrow
Type: Anti-Army
Rank: D-A+
Although a normal animal in life, having recognized Rocinante as the steed of a great knight-errant and the equal to him in merit, Rider is able to harness his delusions to create a history of prestige and mystery for Rocinante with no factual basis purely on the strength of his own belief. Although normally no more powerful than an ordinary horse, Rocinante is able to utilize the power drained from opponents by Dulcinea in order to significantly bolster its own attributes temporarily. With sufficient power drained from the opponent to accumulate into false history, Rocinante can become equivalent to a legendary beast in status and ability, transforming into a spectral horse engulfed in overwhelmingly powerful magical energy.

God, Saberfags are some annoying shit

Saber has appeared in so many different forms in spin-offs over the past 10 years, she's become a sort of poster girl for TYPE-MOON. From your point of view, Urobuchi, how do you view Saber?

Uro: Honestly, Saber doesn't look much like a heroine to me. I can still see traces of the male version of Saber that appeared in the early version of Fate (*7). Because of that mental image, Saber's relationship with Shirou doesn't seem like a realistic relationship between a male and a female, but a complicated relationship with a boy who became a girl.

Nasu: Typical Urobuchi... I really can't pull the wool over your eyes... I intended to take that to the grave with me, but I guess this 10-year anniversary is a good place to talk about it. Just like Urobuchi-san said, it's difficult to call the relationship between Shirou and Saber a relationship between a man and a woman. Saber has fought for a long time as the ruler of Britain, but then turned into a girl all of a sudden and fell in love with Shirou. It's pretty ridiculous when you think about it. But I really wanted to push it towards that sort of boy-meets-girl story. So as a last resort, I had Shirou continually say things to her like "But you're a girl," and "Girls aren't supposed to fight," in order to remind the users that "she is really a girl." It's like the author's actually the one trying to convince Saber that she's a girl... I feel like I could have written it a lot better now, but that was the best I could do at the time.

Uro: It isn't a relationship fueled by instinct like the relationship between a man and a woman, but a romance of logic between two people who need each other from the heart. I think the Saber route could have been told as a story through the ancient Greek views on love. That's what makes Saber's story so refreshing, and why she's become such a popular character. On the other hand, I think the true heroine of Fate/stay night is Rin. In the Rin route, an equal relationship with a woman who's become stronger than men is depicted. Rin and Shirou mend each other's weaknesses with their own unique strengths, and I think it makes for a very nice relationship.

Nasu: It's true that Rin is different from Saber. Rin is written as a completely different gender. She also has a sort of pride in the fact that she's a beautiful girl. With a girl like that by his side, even an unsociable person like Shirou loses his presence of mind.

Uro: There's yet another different type of love depicted in the Sakura route. It really expresses the dark sides that all women have, but how men can accept that and love women regardless. Something akin to the "dignity of men" comes across.

Nasu: "Romance" is something where a couple blindly pursue each other's ideals. "Love," on the other hand, is something where two people accept each other, including the painful reality that comes with it. There are no ideals to be found there. It's just about coming to terms with reality. They don't even have time to dream... but you can't just keep pushing harsh realities over the hopes and dreams of young people. Let's talk about something more fun!

Fate/stay night is written from Shirou's point of view, but Fate/Zero is drawn from many different points of view.

Uro: True. Fate/stay night was originally conceptualized as a bishojo game, so the very individual theme of "romance" was placed at the core. It had to be written from Shirou's point of view. So then I thought, I have this really powerful core idea of all these Eiyuu (heroic spirits) engaged in a Battle Royale, so why not draw their story from multiple point of views? That's why I tried to work more main characters into Fate/Zero other than simply Kiritsugu and Kirei.

Nasu: I had no other choice but to make Fate/stay night the way I did for that bishojo game format. That was one of the reasons why I once said to Urobuchi, "I don't think I can make bishojo games anymore." The more you pour both what the author wants to draw and romance elements that will excite the users into a work, the more distant they get from each other... that was my dilemma. Trying to force them together would only warp the work. Then, at the same time, Urobuchi-san decided to stop focusing on bishojo games and distance himself from the genre. He created an exciting, self-indulgent Macaraoni-esque revenge opera called Zoku Satsuriku no Django, (*10) and I was just like... waaaah!
