His wants and desires aren't particularly deep- at least on a surface level, but I think he's actually pretty nuanced.

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.

>>142619597
He has retarded ideals, he's bent on outdated ridiculous values such as "hurr ladies shouldn't be hurtful" even when said lady is a magical being a hundred times more powerful than he is, he puts himself in unnecessary dangers and cannot read the mood nor actually understand he's deep in the woods until he's shown to be so (remember when he kept being friendly to Tohsaka in UBW despite being warned of her hostility, getting therefore cornered into the empty hallway?), he relies on heroism that only hold him up because of plot armor through retarded writing (hurr I suddenly have an enlightenment and can create weapons out of fucking nowhere to defeat enemies, literally "willpower" nekketsu-tier plot device) and he acts like an idiot every time he so much as TOUCHES a female character.

He's a retarded, harem-tier, completely unlikeable idiot.

>>142620160
Though I like Rin, I'm not saying she doesn't have flaws. Personally, I'm a Saberfag. Don't act like Sakura doesn't have faults of her own

Because you're literally wrong about everything you fucking retard.

This goes for both genders because he does the same thing with Archer in UBW.

Now read the VN before posting again.

>"hurr ladies shouldn't be hurtful"
>Implying this shit wasn't in Zero all. the. fucking. time.

Nasu: Simple. I decided the story would unfold like this when I first started, and the characters would serve the theme of the story. It was only natural the story would end like this. Really, that was it. In fact, I thought the Normal End was the natural conclusion of Sakura Route. In the draft, the Normal End was the True End.

...

Nasu: Yes. It (Normal End) was the only conclusion considered at the time. However, after writing about 2/3 of it, I found that the story itself did not allow such a conclusion. After that, I wrote the original conclusion, and then followed the story and write the happy end. Since this was Shirou's tale of happiness after losing so much, even if Sabre and Ilya were lost, at least he should let Sakura achieve happiness. And this was the conclusion. Even though Sakura indirectly became a mass murderer, there was no reason to deny her of happiness. I came up with this idea that if one were alive, it was not bad to redeem him/herself while looking forward to happiness. Even though this was hypocrisy, I felt that the story itself strongly demanded this possibility. To be honest, it was the first time that I lost to the story I wrote.

>>142620777
Nasu: Yes. Originally I wished to connect the world of DDD with Hollow, but the later proved to be too time-consuming, so I was not able to do so. As a result, I separated the themes of the two works completely. For Hollow, I endeavoured to achieve all I could through the medium of computer game; for DDD, I wrote down all I wanted to express at that time. DDD was the first novel written entirely for my personal interest since Kara no Kyoukai. I think it had a strong personal touch.

Murakami: For instance, in Fate, Shirou can repair objects, but this was not the true nature of his abilities. Furthermore, "repairing" itself is a process of returning the abnormal to normal. However, there is nothing normal in this World, and everything is abonormal. In order to survive, one cannot depend on "repair", but maintenance through "adjustments". This theme, I think, was best illustrated through the scene where DDD protagonist Ishizue Arika repaired Karyou Kaie's false hand.

Nasu: Thank you. I am very happy that you interpreted it this way.

(These are from Type-Moon's 10th anniversary festival, by the way)

The scene where he blurts that out has an extremely fucking explicit cut to his inner monologue in washed out tones so as to signal the difference between what he's saying and what he's thinking. Shirou lies out his ass throughout the whole novel whenever someone asks him why he does things.

>>142621345
It's not like she's particularly scrupulous in FSN either. The story starts with her trying to hack Rin in two on sight just because she's the enemy Master and she's totally on board with ambushing Kuzuki.

>>142621754
Ok, you're entitled to your opinion.

>>142621754
The typical 'I can't self-insert as him' response.

Shirou is a mentally unwell person, and growing to understand him, and how he deals with his problems , is the core of the story.

>>142621618
Who said anything about her doing a great job of anything? Unless we're talking about her being a great King. Which she is/was undoubtedly.

So many furious VNEETs / nasufags

Q: So, Shirou's lunchboxes are Issei's favourite food? It's not like he has any questionable feelings besides friendship for him... right?
A: He wouldn't dream of or hope for it - that's something even I can't say. But Issei's feelings are those of a true male friend. Friendship between guys is the best!

Q：一成の好物は士郎のお弁当とのことですが、彼が士郎に友人以上の微妙な感情を持つ可能性は...... ないですよね。
A：そんな夢も希望もないこと、とても僕の口からは言えません。でも一成の好意は純粋に男友達としてだよ。 男同士の友情サイコー！

>>142621961
Shinji was a better friend that Issei.

>>142621754
I don't think you get what people were originally arguing in regards to Shirou. I can understand why he isn't likable for many people, and thats okay. But whether you like him or not has absolutely no bearing on the fact that he was a well fleshed out character. Literally nobody in Zero even comes close to him in that. Mind you, I'm not saying he's "deep", he should be easy to understand if you read properly.
A lot of people seem to fail at that though.

Also Zero is the only good thing to come out of the series so meh.

>>142622840

>muh suffering and plot

>>142622840
Well, the major difference between Zero and HF is that, despite the darkness in it, HF has a generally positive message (of protecting your loved ones) and a happy ending. Zero has neither. All the major characters essentially die for nothing, and in general their actions make matters worse, not better. Pretty much every problem in FSN can be traced directly back to Zero. Not to mention that most of the characters are very unsympathetic, and those who are not get broken totally by the events of the story and do not get anything even remotely resembing a happy ending (Kariya in particular).

The closest thing you'd get to Zero from FSN would be a Mind of Steel continuation where Gilgamesh got the Grail and succeeded in releasing it partially, but Shirou stopped him at the last minute before he could take down anything beyond Fuyuki. Then, Shirou would recall the last words of Rin (and how she had been crying over killing Sakura as he killed her), and how he'd killed Ilya in cold blood, and would break down in tears.

>>142622545

The way FSN reads is really wish fulfillment.
You're first person adventuring and conquering a woman for each route. Gilgamesh showing up in the first route seems so NTRish during the first go-run, you can see why a lot of insert faggots from FSN still hate him right now. You also get power-ups, you change in each route in order to be more compatible with the heroines.

There's a fucking good reason why in a lot of Fate threads, we see insert faggots writing harem fanfics about their insert character needing to have a route with [insert female character here].

First person has literally nothing to do with self insertion. It allows for the reader to get a deeper bit of insight into the protagonist, or character at hand's, mind.

It's the opposite of self insertion, really. You're seeing things directly how another person sees them.

>we see insert faggots writing harem fanfics about their insert character needing to have a route with [insert female character here].

I don't really see a lot of people specifically bringing up wanting Shirou to fuck other characters, it's more like fans want to see more of the characters they like that don't get enough spotlight.

You can have that without writing in your faggot insert every which way. Like Fate Zero, Garden of Avalon, Extra/CCC, Prototype, and even Tiger Collosseum.
People might not want to admit it, but saying "gotta have a route with [heroine] to see more of her past" is a fucking excuse to have their insert get more harem fanfic bullshit.

If you truly don't insert, like I do, then you would not give a fuck if your insert is there anymore in future stories or not.

But no, these insert faggots keep complaining when their insert isn't showing up in previews for future series. Fuck, they got really annoying when Assassin Kiritsugu showed up. They really wanted their dumbass insert as an Assassin.

>>142616910

I assume this is the "Fate is pretty shit ever since F/SN or Zero" thread, and other various assertions.

Those Zero tryhards don't make harem fanfictions where they become Lord Harem Masters.
If you suddenly saw Diarmuid posters having Rin and Saber sucking his dick in their fics, then that guy is also a self-inserting prick.
Same with Gilgamesh or Iskander.

But because of how Zero is written, it is much harder to insert. Due to FSN's first person perspective, it's much easier to do so without even noticing it.

>>142623937
Yes.

>>142623962
It's not actually self-insert, but rather "insert". Those two are different. Self-insert is the author doing the inserting. Inserting is the readers doing the "I live vicariously through [enter hero's name here]" bullshit.

>>142622878

Top bait but keep in mind that even though Archer and Shirou are the same person, they are not the same character. I doubt anyone was expecting or even wanting Assassin EMIYA to be "Shirou" but rather Assassin Archer since we already knew he qualified for the class. And Archer is far more popular than Shirou or Kerry, so that's not really surprising.

>>142624033
Yes. Anyone in this thread who is trying to deny that FSN has a measure of insertion in it is an insertfaggot in denial. They just don't want to admit they inserted into a character and that all the stories (fanfics) they've written was not creativity but rather, egotistical and imaginary fapwork/patting oneself on the back that "they (their insert is them)" fucked Saber/Rin/Sakura/Rider/Whoever.

Shirou, and FSN as a whole, is literally designed not to allow self insertion.

The choices you make in the game aren't a result of what you want to happen in the story, they're essentially tests to see if you understand how Shirou, as a character, reacts.

That's why people get frustrated with him early on. He doesn't do what you want him to do.

There's the whole "bring Ilya back" choice in HF, obviously, where there's no other option, but have you ever noticed that there isn't a single choice during the Archer fight?

"I have no regrets, this is the only path".

There were no other choices to be made during that scene.

The same thing can be said about Tohno Shiki in Tsukihime.

You can get stuck in multiple loops to bad ends if you do not make the correct choices in every route of the game.

Tohno Shiki is an insert, so is your insert. Stop making excuses. You insert. You just deny it so you wouldn't be as shit as the Shitkifags. But at the end of the day, you are the same as those inserters.

Actually, FSN was designed for people to insert. It had harem-ish moments and the heroines were all designed to fall for the hero regardless. The perspective was completely first person and you are given multiple excuses to like said character over the entire course of the VN.
This is not as prevalent in the Fate novels, because of multiple character storylines, forcing you to meld with multiple characters instead of just one.

The ONLY way you can say you do not insert is the NTR test.

If you do not give a shit if Saber/Rin/Medusa/Sakura/whoever getting into a romantic life with another male character that is not connected in any way to the insert character, then and only then are you not inserting.

If you do, you're inserting. Hard.

The closest thing to interesting about him is what he grows up to be, but even that manages to be all emo about his situation.

And when I say 'designed to be a self-insert', it is the truth. After all, the original story had the main character being a female and summoning an actually male Saber/King Arthur. Because Nasu knew the VN audience just wanted to project onto a main character and have a varied cast of girls in their sex scenes, he changed the MC to Shirou and Saber to a girl.

And no, there is no confusion here. You are literally making choices for "your" character in FSN or Tsukihime. The pain they feel gets directly transferred to you. Their thoughts and experiences.

This is why a lot of inserters write fanfics with heroines or harems. Because it is a continuation of their conquests from the VN.

The level of ignorance here really is astonishing. You're not just making grandiose statements about FSN, you're making them about an entire narrative perspective.

Any novel that uses first person is self insertion?

Is third person the only objective means to tell a narrative to you?

I'd think plenty of scholars would disagree.

>You are literally making choices for "your" character in FSN or Tsukihime

We've been over this. You don't make the choices. You can't direct how Shirou reacts to a situation. If you go against what he would want as a character, you get a bad end.

The thing many don't get about Zero is that many of the characters are pretty much manchildren. Take Kerry for example. He's dark & edgy enough for 12 year olds to enjoy but in actuality, he's just as childish on the inside. The LN's Prologue's first words are:

"Let us tell the story of a certain man.

The tale of a man who, more than anyone else, believed in his ideals, and was driven to despair by them.

The dream of that man was pure.

His wish was for everyone in this world to be happy; that was all that he asked for.

It is a childish ideal that all young boys grow attached to at least once, one that they abandon once they grow accustomed to the mercilessness of reality.

Any happiness requires a sacrifice, something all children learn when they become adults.

But, that man was different.

Maybe he was just the most foolish of all. Maybe he was broken somewhere. Or maybe, he might have been of the kind we call 'Saints', entrusted with God's will. One that common people cannot understand."

It admits how childish Kerry's ideals are. Unlike Shirou who either didn't have them challenged too much, had them challenged & adopted a healthier version of those ideals, or flat out abandoned those ideals for his (worm-filled) loved ones, Kerry fell apart when his ideals were challenged. He's an adult but just as childish as the rest, especially for thinking that a magical Grail will solve everything.

>>142624667

You can't use this as an excuse. Tohno Shiki gets killed in bad ends and he's an insert.

Yeah, VB buyer base are otaku that wants to fuck women, so they design insert stories to "fuck" women.
LN are slightly different, but even more so in multiple perspective stories like Zero. You can still have insert level harem stories from LNs (a lot of harem anime are based on LNs like that).

>What about the obvious rape going on with Shinji and Medsua. Or Shinji and Sakura? And what about Rin NTR-ing Saber? C'mon anon! Two wrongs don't make a right.
No. I mean, if some story has Rin getting with another man, or, Saber getting with Merlin.

The latter, I've read a lot of backlash when GoA detailed that Saber and Merlin loved each other. Came out the insert faggots saying they don't really love each other, because they feel threatened that "their" haremette actually loves another man.
Same when Diarmuid came out, though a lot of people try to hide it with his chivalryshit (while not hating chivalryshit Saber at the same time). But a pattern between the two developments exist.

>>142624957
My proof is reading so many Fate threads and seeing you inserts react so violently to being told what you are doing. While at the same time, you call your laughable Tsukihime counterparts as worshiping an insert, you all don't notice that you're just the same as the Tohno Shikifags.

Prove to me that first person perspective, as a narrative format, implies self insertion.

Second person does. That's the one where "you" are in the story. First person is "I", and allows for the reader to get personal insight into a character.

>>142625072
I and everyone I know self insert as Waver.

>You don't have to shoehorn scenes that forces Saber into being a girl. Even Nasu admitted as such.


Except Zero had this multiple times throughout the novels. And Urobuchi writes Saber like she's a high school sempai that turned down his pitiful love letters. In fact, Nasa at least admits he wrote Saber wrong, and made amends for that in Grand Order. Urobuchi goes on about how HE thinks Saber should be done, and fucks her character up completely.

>Muh chivalry

>Muh failed kingdom

>Muh I'm a horrible King

>Muh I don't deserve anything I worked hard as hell to get and strode for

>Muh you men are so much better, please talk down to me more. Help me understand how much of a worthless wommenz I am.

But go ahead. Keep acting like a smug faggot for thinking Nasu hating turning King Arthur into a girl and then regretting it slipping into his work is any better than what Urobuchi did, thinking he did it better.

>>142625386
When was this ever stated in Fate or HF?

No, read what the fuck I replied to. The post I replied to literally implied that you could not possibly insert into a character that is a failure.
Then I just showed that dumb fuck how utterly successful that character is.

Strong, gets to fuck lotsa women, lucky as shit. Wow, just like almost a lot of other insert characters!

I've been participating in Fate threads since /tm/ was still a thing. These are things that can be easily observed. Granted, I only noticed these when I read Fate fans bashing Tsukihime fans for their Tohno Shiki worship.
But then, I noticed, "Wait, don't they do the same in Fate?"
And since then, it became all too clear. Fate fans that insert were just as deluded as their Tsukihime counterparts.

You should have noticed these people. They are the same purveyors of harem insert fanfics in Fate threads. If you don't notice, it's because you're also an inserter in denial.

>>142625474
>You have sex with the heroines several times throughout the games, man
Depends on what version of the game. Also, those laughable sex scenes have hardly any lasting impact on the plot. They're easily replaced with dragons or dolphins.

>>142625589
So bizarre anecdotal evidence, an appeal to authority, by claiming you lurking threads here really means anything to your point, and as weird conspiracy-like obsession that people are out there to hide their secret desire to self insert as Shirou.

I think you might really be a little off.

>>142625558
We never got to see Saber & Gil fight in a sea of fire.

I don't come into fate threads too often myself but are there really that many of these 'harem insert fanfics'?

>>142625649
No one posts fanfiction in these threads.

That's just a fact. No one openly posts or writes that kind of stuff here.

>>142625661
People don't like talking about Realta Nua being more canon than the original because of the sex scene retcons.
That's why if we say "Is [x] virgin because of RN?" almost all of them will say no, because first VN sex scenes override that in canon.
Those first sex scenes are what people remember, even though they're ridiculous reading today.

>>142625072
>>NTR only happens if you insert as the fuck.

>>142625432
If we are to assume Arturia inspired the legends about Arthur we see in a more early period, then yeah, writing her that way is derailing her. Because "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" in it's original form has an Arthur that is a fucking boss.

Seriously, he's basically "The Most Interesting King in The World". He's fun at parties, he's a badass, all the women think he's really hot, he's generally the most Knightly King In the World, etc.

Boss.

Saber at her worst is hardly even a pale shadow that, and is just far too weepy and demure, really.

It's funny how much characters that should be Manly Beasts are adorable waifus or bishie, and characters like FUCKING ALEXANDER THE GREAT are instead giant slabs of muscle when the Grecian ideal was... Basically what they decided to give Gilgamesh.

Gilgamesh should be the fireplug shaped lump of hairy muscle and crudeness, not Alexander. Alexander should be fucking pretty.
I mean, they had the common sense to do it in the animu about him. The hyper stylized one?

>>142625602
>but HF Normal had Sakura wait for Shirou & Rin eventually have kids with someone else.

You might want to reread the route

Shirou and Rin didn't fuck and have kids during HF normal as Sakura watched over them. Its hard to even describe how wrong that is here.

>>142625720
I have seen anyone even talk about fanfiction in these threads other than this guy right now.

>>142625720
The only Fate threads I usually see are Create-A-Servant Threads.

Archer shot a sword towards him, but in an instant Kirito was there. He batted the nameless sword aside with ease.

"Archer. Your fight is with me."

The bloodied hero narrowed his eyes. "You won't stop me from achieving my goal. That idiot will die."

Kirito grinned. "You can try."

Archer scowled and charged down the steps, a pair of black and white falchions appearing in his hands with a flash of light.

>>142618120

Nailed it.

>>142625783
He is saying that Rin eventually had kids with someone else (who isn't Shirou).

>>142625736
>That's just a fact. No one openly posts or writes that kind of stuff here.

A fanfic does not need to be well-written 7,000 word stories.

Fanfiction can just as comprise 5 sentences in greentext detailing Hero X having sex with Heroine Z in a new route for the sole purpose of "knowing more about Heroine Z's past" by dicking her.

That's also fanfiction. Most Fate threads have that kind of bullshit.

Well shit nigger, I guess all those LN authors are dirty self inserting fanfic makers. Gee wiz. Right on the same level as a greentext poo poo pee pee frogpost.

>>142625758
It does. Especially for a multiverse like Nasuverse.

Like for example, we now know that Merlin and Saber actually truly loved each other due to GoA. If you hate this and truly despise the thought of Nasu actually writing a story where their love comes into fruition in another universe, then yeah, you're inserting because you feel the NTR caused by it.

Even though it's technically not NTR.

>>142625744
>Those first sex scenes are what people remember, even though they're ridiculous reading today
And they'll know that those scenes have little to no relevance to other shit. They had shoehorned in sex scenes to get the VN out. This is normal.

>>142625968
No. That's just you wanting to fuck blank.
>>142625975
Yes. FAN FICTION. What the fuck do you think those words mean? It's fiction made by the fucking fan.

The original draft of F/SN was completely different, and he discharged it because he didn't appeal the otaku audience enough. What kind of author does that?

>>142625978
>If you hate this and truly despise the thought of Nasu actually writing a story where their love comes into fruition in another universe, then yeah, you're inserting because you feel the NTR caused by it.

If I don't like or agree with everything Nasu writes, I'm a dirty self inserter?

>>142625990
They shoehorned those scenes so that otaku can have a goal as they further insert in the VN. If they simply wrote FSN as a non-insert game, Type-Moon would not be where it is now, which is a fanbase filled with Saber waifufags.

>>142626065
Many. Plenty of plots, even decent ones, ended up being rejected because people didn't think it'd sell.

I can accept that a Tohsaka heir probably is Rin's kid considering how magicians work and shit but where did the 'after dating a bunch' come from? Your inner cuck fantasies?

Countless.

Same with directors, composers, any sort of creator.

You're acting like business isn't a huge consideration when making art. Everyone's gotta eat.

It's nice when the protagonist doesn't want to fuck the servant.

>>142626080
>so that otaku can have a goal as they further insert in the VN
Ridiculous. They had them in so that the VN'd make it through. It's just like how Spec Ops: The Line had multiplayer because the guys wouldn't release it otherwise. Those scenes were easily removed in the RN version & serve nothing to the plot. This happens many times in Japan where someone starting out has to do some degree of porn in their work & later completely abandon said porn.

>>142626065
>the original draft was not the final draft
>who does this?
Everyone who is not a dumb highschooler.

>>142626209
Well to be fair, I think it was more Rider that fucked Waver.

>>142626209
Why back then did Nasu (if it was his choice) choose to include ero-scenes in Tsukihime and F/SN when the story could have easily done without them?

For example, Hisui and Tohaku are synchronizers whose are able to give power through the exchange of bodily fluids. So blood, saliva, and of course sexual intercourse. But doesn't that last one just sound like a cheap excuse to add porn into your game? It could have easily been done with just drinking blood or spit-swapping.

Naturally the same thing with F/SN. In the "fate" route Shirou can give Saber more "essence" by having sex with her; but once again that just seems like a cop-out excuse for the author himself because he couldn't think of anything else.

>>142626067
>dislike it from a narrative perspective
RED HERRING

I literally said in that post that you are only inserting IF you hate and truly despise Saber getting jiggy with Merlin in another story.

Nowhere did I say anything else about writing quality. You hate the writing quality and not the actual Saber getting Merlin's incubus dick, then you ain't inserting.

You're trying to set up another red herring hoping I go down that argument.

No one would have bought the game if it didn't have sex in it. Type-Moon's claim to fame prior to FSN going mainstream was an eroge and an anime that included sex in it.

>>142626065
You have to remember that 90% of all Type-Moon income comes from Saber figs. A male Saber just wouldn't sell as well.

>>142626241

You said that if you hate it, and don't like the idea of them getting together, you're self inserting.

you never made that 'if' implication, you just said that I didn't eat that up, I'm a mad cuck.

>>142626241
If you read the interviews about Tsuki it was because Tsuki being a porn game was always part of the plan. Things like Ciel being an anal character and all that. There's really nothing wrong with that. It's a H-game with a decent plot, same with Fate.

Exactly. That's how this shit goes. They include some popular feature to lure people in so they can get more popular through their other shit. No sex = no buy for many. Even if someone wants to make something popular because of plot or characters, they need some way to reel people in. If they're not initially some big name producer for a big franchise, it gets abit hard.

>>142626414

The thing that amuses me the most in FSN is how there always needs to be some kind of a magical compulsion or other such excuse for sex.

No matter how much they're in love with each other, the characters never fuck just because. There's always some magical this or mana transfer that.

Help me understand anon. Help me reach enlightenment.

-- Oh, that explains why this anime adaption so faithfully recreates the atmosphere of the original game. And, conversely, one highlights of this anime is the addition of original scenes that supplement the content of the original game.

Nasu: I like to think that they've added lots of original scenes that are what Modern-day Kinoko Nasu would write. I got them to do what I wanted with the Rin vs. Illya scene in #03. That scene wasn't, "Kinoko has become a better writer in 10 years," but rather that Fate/stay night has upped its game in so many ways over the past 10 years that if we write on its level, we can add to it like this. I want to make it the latest and greatest Fate/stay night, one that incorporates those 10 years.

The voice acting adds a lot to FSN. Combat scenes just wouldn't be the same without Sugiyama's guttural gurgling screams.

That wasn't a joke, mind you. Shirou gets fucked up like a Saint Seiya character, and Sugiyama gets the agony across spectacularly well. Him showting Saber and Illya's names at the end of HF was heartbreaking.

The LN had multiple character perspectives preventing said insertion from happening.

>>142626658
My reading comprehension is fine. You argued that if you dislike the idea of Nasu writing a love story between Saber and Merlin, you're feeling the effects of NTR.

>And that's why FSN's writing is inferior to FZ's.

It's like you're functionally illiterate. The VN had sex scenes to lure people in. These same sex scenes have very little to do with any of the story & were easily removed in later editions. It's a "Come for sex, stay for other stuff" deal.
>a first person insert perspective
This is common to many VNs & by VN standards, Shirou is at least seen. Those H-Scenes often show Shirou too.
>VN was literally designed to make people insert into it
Where did you learn to read? The VN was made with very many "Do X or die" choices & very little freedom to decide Shirou's character development aside from picking which route. Next you're going to call ASOIAF self-insertion shit due to the POV characters.
