Shirou picks her over his ideal because he's completely in love with her. If he weren't then he wouldn't pick her over his ideals, it's really that simple.

She still won. If I followed your logic I could still say Sakura defeated Rin because she could have killed her when she showed up at Shirou's house, but let her live.

Zouken doesn't know that Sakura has a huge crush on Shirou until he meets him. Once he knows that he thinks he can use her feelings towards Shirou and Rin against her to break her (Because 11 years of worm torture didnt).

>>159872280
IIRC the difference is that Zouken was trying to agitate Sakura emotionally in order to get her involved (like in that intermission flashback where he tells her Rin will probably win), and in HF Shirou gets closer to her, which triggers the shit that happens to her. I may be misremembering.

>>159872280
Zouken tells Sakura about how Rin has the best chance of winning and getting everything she wants. Then Rin starts stepping on Sakura's territory by getting closer to Shirou (she finds out Rin was at his house, Rin makes him have lunch with her on the rooftop while Sakura was waiting for him in the archery club) and the shadow grows.

Nah, that's pretty accurate. If they're talking about how Sakura killed SERVANTS, then she's totally the Shadow, but if you mention how the Shadow was also totally murdering civilians every night, they say she 100% wasn't the Shadow at all.

It's kind of massively fucking obnoxious.

>>159879837
You'd probably be obnoxious too if your waifu was a fuckhole for dickworms.

>>159879837
Sakura was not in control of the shadow until she killed shinji. And in the first few times she didn't know it was anything more than a nightmare.

>>159880134
No, it was her. It deliberately let Shirou live the first time he encountered it.

>>159880134

Case in point.

She kills Gil WAY before she kills Shinji. She kills Shinji on day fucking 14, Gil died way before that.

>How do you know if you hate her SO MUCH
I know because directly after Day 14 is Day 15, which is Nine Lives and Sparks Liner High. Gil doesn't appear in the finale, either - because he died far before Sakura killed Shinji.

I think the best explanation of Sakura's behavior as the Shadow prior to becoming Dark Sakura is that it was being controlled loosely by her emotional state. It stopped before it killed Shirou for obvious reasons, but later it ends up almost killing him and destroying his arm; this is because Sakura was earlier thinking about how it would keep Shirou at home if he ended getting hurt, so the Shadow acted in a hostile manner. So she was in control of it, but not fully.

>>159880403
It's probably more accurate to say it sometimes uses her negative feelings as a vague guide for who to kill due to being linked to her, but the killing part is all on the grail because that's what it does. Shirou losing his arm was a coincidence since it happened in a huge explosion where he dies if he happens to dodge in a different way.

Basically, the shadow is like the devil reading your diary, then kidnapping you and using your car to run over the people you wrote that you hate while you're asleep.

It's made pretty clear that he considers her as if she was part of his family. Even gave her his father's key to the house and told her, in the Fate route, that his house belongs to her as much as it does to him.

Fail to see literally anything wrong there.

Shirou/Sakura romance never felt real to me. Shirou/Rin did, though. Saber was in between.

He fell in love with Rin for no reason tho. Like, he had an infatuation with her that never developed into anything else. It was weird when he confessed to her.

They should have made this a route making it the route where Shirou becomes Archer

>>159888227
Well that's because they don't have a romance, even before the grail war starts those two are basically already acting like a married couple, buying groceries, cooking for each other and arguing that they should do this and that for each other and so on, all that's missing is the ring and kissing really

>Kills Kotomine
Is that why he appears at the end of HF as the final boss?

>>159872498
Would have been better to make Sakura part of a splinter family. If her children can inherit her talents then the family would have a veritable army of servant killers ganking servants left and right during the next war.

>>159888529
They were acting like siblings, which is how Shirou perceived it.

>>159888544
see >>159871043

>>159888549
Well first Sakura could only gank servants due to having immeasurable cosmic power at her fingertips via grail, second branch families are pretty useless because they'll be starting from scratch due to not having the magic crest, building up that knowledge takes centuries, and by that point your branch just became your competition

>>159888227

How so? Rin had the same "start" as Sakura, but only really pulled ahead because Sakura couldn't move forward due to the trauma of her life and being under thrall to Zouken. Had that not been the case, she would have had Shirou long ago.

Whereas Rin had a crush on him, and he seemingly developed one for her, but the two never interacted until the war. Rin nursed a crush for three years and never interacted with the boy she liked, and Shirou nursed his from an unknown point, but never talked with the girl he liked. They meet during the war and fell for each other in about 9 days. It can happen, but it's pretty quick for two people who barely knew each other a little over a week ago.

Saber was the general "magical girl falls out of the sky and it's attraction at first sight" deal. Too starcrossed to feel relateable.

Sakura hung out with and got to know the boy, became friends first, then fell after awhile. About as natural as natural gets.

>>159888629
He somehow thinks it's just a normal senpai-kouhai relationship, if she was only like his sister then I'd be worried about the boners he's starting to get just from seeing her pale delicate hand passing him a bowl of rice

Sakura is definitely better than boring Saber and prostitute Rin.

>>159888679
There are always alternate power sources and they could just absorb one of those "failed" magic crest families we see in apocrypha. Tokiomi had options that weren't completely stupid.

>>159888457
It's more that the meat of the relationship is missing. Which qualities did he see in Rin that made him go from crushing on her to falling for her? Which experiences made this happen? It just feels kind of empty compared to the other romances. Though to be fair, they are all pretty bad since they didn't receive a full focus.

Real romances tend to initiate quickly. The "we were friends and gradually realized we were in love over a long span of time" thing you commonly see in Japanese media is bullshit. Their quick romance makes even more sense here because they grew closer in a life or death situation which forced them to closely work with and depend on each other.

Hmm, I found it to be the exact opposite of what you're saying. Sometimes seeing the flaws in a person can make them more endearing to you. The fact that his initial perception of her was wrong got pointed out over and over.

>>159888881
If there was an alternative power source that good it would likely be far better to use on his own heir, making branch families also splits up the resources and time he could be spending on Rin, he didn't really have that many options when it comes to Sakura not just being a broodmare, or dead, though things really would've ended much better for Sakura if he just threw her to the Edelfelts instead of the Matous, even if it did seem like a good idea at the time

>>159888679

It's actually partly because her powers are suited to dealing with the supernatural, the "authority" of the grail over Servants, and because she is hooked to the "main body" of AM inside the grail. Meaning that it wasn't only because she had a lot of mana, but because it was her herself that made it so strong. Her powers are pretty versatile, Zouken just never cares to develop them and what she did in HF was by instinct.

Also, the whole deal was to give Sakura over to family to become the head, but she would have ended up starting from almost scratch anyway because her body isn't suited to another family's techniques. Tokiomi basically said a lot of shit as an excuse for the fact he was gimping Sakura's potential, even when he knew Zouken was a particular corrupt individual. He wasn't wrong that Sakura was endangered by being so strong in potential but having no Crest, but once you piece together everything, it's all kinda disingenuous. He gave her to a family that was rotting in potential and refused to take in new blood, therefore had weak teaching principles, and headed by a guy who he considered mage filth, but somehow thought a four year old without any knowledge of her power could take down an arch magus should he be evil. That was literally what Tokiomi thought.

The branch family idea sounds less retarded than that.

>>159889066
That makes sense, but the VN didn't go into any detail about it, which is why I thought it felt weak.

>>159889237
From threads in /tg/, people who roleplay as mages or liches are retarded because they overthink so much and make so many countermeasures that all of that can easily by disrupted by sending in an apprentice with a scroll of antimagic.

there is no friendzone tho. sakura is not going to make a move because she feels worthless and shirou is trying not to view her romantically bc he needs to be a good senpai to her. hes wanted to bang her all along and wouldve if she said so

>>159889237

The Edelfelts hate the Tohsakas, though.

>>159889437

There is an issue of self-confidence, but it's more that she didn't feel she had a life ahead if her. Her father kinda hosed her since she was a toddler to a crusty old mummy who uses her as a living experiment. That doesn't really help your love life. Heck, she reported to Zouken that the Emiya boy was harmless when she was a spy because she wants to keep him away from her problems. It's why Zouken never really has Shirou on his radar until HF.

>>159889697
Well, Shirou was actually harmless, he could barely do magic. He wasn't like Kiritsugu with his matrix hacks

>>Give up the one that can wreck a Servant's shit to one of your competitors

That's not how Toki's brain works.

In his mind, sakura(and her offsprings) winning = tohsaka winning.

citation: his own speech when he 1v1 kariya

>>159889586
Whatever salt they have can't have been too bad considering Tokiomi straight out says he would've gone with the Edelfelts if he knew Kariya was going to go bring Sakura along on his adventures in the hanafuda game, and well even if they were very salty the alternative is still the Matou

>>159874170
Isn't his reason always because he wants both their talents to flourish and can't stand only giving the family Crest to one? It just happens to be the Matous usually, but I remember hearing she got sent to an offshoot of the Edelfelts in Apocrypha.

>>159889586

She gets along well as Luvia's imouto in Apocrypha, so that is one thing.

And before you say that is all non-canon, they make a side joke about it in a Hanafuda side story for Realta Nua, but Tokiomi says there when Kariya shows up with Sakura, that he would have sent Sakura to their relatives as an alternative. Nasu leaves lore in jokes and side stories all the time.

Also cute and slightly distrurbing, Manaka and loli Sakura had a cute story arc together where they sing songs together. Disturbing songs, but cute. Makes one of Sakura's favorite things being horror movies, even as a loli, make more sense.

And they both still fall for the high jump.

>>159880134
She was subconsciously the shadow. If she was a healthy well adjusted human being it might not have done anything at all. It went after the town's people because Sakura hated them for having a good gentle everyday life while she suffers.

To survive the first major HF bad end, you needed to have taken all the Sakura flags up until that point, including the one where you decided to stay home and take care of her (over going patrolling with Saber) that's worth like 6 points. If you don't, when the shadow ate Shirou he dies. If you do, the weird Nasu wordvomit salad still happens, but he survives.

>>159890136

The high jump didn't happen in that world, since Shirou didn't get adopted by Kerry, he still has his original mom and dad. Shirou did the high jump in frustration over Kerry.

And Sakura fell for Shirou way later after the high jump, she was only inspired then.

>>159872435
Rin's Average One trait made her a first rate mage. Sakura's Imaginary Numbers is garbage even against Servants without her being the second Lesser Grail and giving her the shadow as an offensive tool.

At which point will the first movie finish? Seiba's death by Hassan?

>>159890170

This is false. Kotomine even says so himself it just finds nourishment randomly, and Zouken confirmed it later on when he spoke privately with Hassan, that Sakura held back the mud because of her hope. That was why it only went out when she was asleep until she became one with it, which happened as she was becoming the grail.

It's true that she isn't a normal girl and has bitterness, but it didn't attack people because she hates people, it eats randomly and whatever has the most magical energy around will be the target.

>>159872280
Zouken noticed her crush on Shirou and established the plan to use that to break down Sakura. He knows about Shirou before hand, but meeting him personally and seeing Sakura's reaction around him made the difference.

Wrong. The grail kills people. It's what it does. Had it been possessing someone else, it would have went after someone they were feeling a little annoyed at for a moment that day. It's ridiculous how people are still confused about the shadow when it's pretty much a walking version of the grail mud shown in the Fate/UBW finale. Sakura being linked to it doesn't make her responsible for its actions.

The shadow did literally nothing in Fate and UBW. Only in Heaven's Feel did it start ganking people at night.

>>159890557
>what is the mud Kotomine throws at Shirou in the Fate finale
>what is the lake surrounding the Shinji meatblob in the UBW finale

>>159890647
The first major incident with the shadow happened on day 6, after Sakura got sick. If you fail the big affection check, it swallow Shirou. If you pass, it spit him out. Nothing really happened in that 3 days aside from a slight development in Shirou and Sakura's relationship.

In the other two routes, there was no shadow going around ganking people. That's what I'm talking about, the autonomous grail mud, not the one Kotomine/Gil summons at the end of the first two routes.

Small reminder that besides Rin and Sakura, Tokiomi also had an affair while overseas which is why Extra's Blonde Rin exists

>>159890283

It's not garbage at all. You get side dimensions from it where time flows differently and the "Shadow" you know is merely Sakura's powers that have the taint, that's all. Anything you see the Shadow do, Sakura can feasibly do, just with more mana.

They prove it in Hollow with the Sister Crisis scene, where Sakura pulls Rin into one of her portals as a joke and they fight. You see it again in an All Around Type Moon drama CD where Sakura puts Rider into her alternate dimension on time out for almost getting the gang arrested for indecency in a family restaurant.

Finally, in the last battle in Hollow, you see her being able to suck groups of the Avenger zombies into her voids. Which probably should have gotten the CG instead of the "fighting back to back with Rider" one or shown in that ufotable opening. Sadly, thus is why people think Sakura is useless, it's a shame.

>worms in her vagina
haven't watched, literally what?

>>159890756
The point is that particularly trait is garbage in a grail war because she wouldn't have the mana to use it effectively against servants anyway (even though its only use is making her effective against spiritual beings), while Rin's Average One make her a first rate magus in general, allowing a traditional Servant vs Servant/Master vs Master configuration.

Its effective in Heaven's Feel because she's the second Lesser Grail, giving her access to an effectively infinite amount of mana. Rin needed all 12 of her gems to get rid of 1 of Herc's life, or fight evenly with Medea briefly. Sakura can do a bit better with her trait, but its no where enough to matter, and she'd be worse than Rin at everything else.

The effects of the mud Kotomine throws at Shirou and the shadow are pretty much exactly the same. In HF, it became capable of projecting itself into the world prematurely and fulfilling its function of killing people because Sakura's grail functions were activated.

The affection check is just the game-y side of a VN, the Tiger Dojo even jokes about how irrelevant it is.

See day 10, when Shirou gets his arm burned off by the Shadow. Sakura has high affection check at that point and Sakura is watching from Rider's eyes using a remote viewing spell.

Logic states that if what you were saying was true, it would have backed off and disappeared, because she was watching the battle and sending Rider to shadow Shirou in concern over him.

Let's cut the bull at the root, you know how some believe that Sakura wanted to take Shirou's arm off? Well the reason that his arm burned off was because he raised his arm BY ACCIDENT when shielding Ilya, at a time that the Shadow did some darkness explosion.

>>159890905

Yes, the reason why Rin is better is because she was better training with her full potential. That's fact.

I was saying Imaginary Numbers isn't garbage. Again, in that final battle in Hollow, she wasn't hooked up to the grail and had only been training for six months. She managed to keep fighting for an hour straight with circuits at full tilt before getting fatigued.

Also, and I hope they keep this point in HF, Sakura ain't a dummy when it comes to magecraft, she evaded Rin's familiars which were keeping tabs on her 24/7. The issue was always that she had a rotten mummy for a teacher who just wanted a lab rat. Even Medea, who doesn't praise hardly anyone, said her innate powers were great when Sakura downplayed herself.

>>159890847
She's literally infested with worms. They even help her milk Shirou though he doesn't realize it when he's fucking her.

>>159890297
I don't believe Shirou would turn out too differently in non-Fourth War timelines. Prisma Illya and Apocrypha both basically say he would have the same base dense harem protag personality, minus the autism about wanting to save everyone.

>>159891430
She has no worms down there by the time they have sex, Kotomine removed them.

>>159891436
The biggest difference I noticed was that Ilya Shirou looks soft as fuck compared to the ones who had hard lives.

>>159891563

I've meant to get into Fate for a good while now and I've seen a lot of threads lately so I might as well do it now. However, I wanna do it right, I don't wanna be no secondary because I know how cancerous that kind of people are. Where do I begin? I'm assuming the VN but I wanna ask just in case.

>inb4 people telling me that the VN is shit and to just watch the various anime adaptations
Fuck off, I didn't ask that.

>>159863378
I hope shirou and his band of faggots in HF get murdered by one of the survivors of Sakura's massacre.

>>159891351
Sakura training to her full potential would still be 1 rank lower than Rin, simply because it comes down to Imaginary Numbers being a specialized as hell trait vs Average One which gives you all 5 elemental affinity and a super large array of spells. Specification wise, Sakura and Rin are both high tier breed with an equal amount of magic circuits, circuit quality and output. But Rin has a much higher array of useful spells, so she's better, that's why Tokiomi kept her as the Tohsaka heir.

>I was saying Imaginary Numbers isn't garbage. Again, in that final battle in Hollow, she wasn't hooked up to the grail and had only been training for six months. She managed to keep fighting for an hour straight with circuits at full tilt before getting fatigued.

And it would make little difference in a grail war. The avenger-beast-blobs are much different from a real Servant. Imaginary Numbers or not, she's not going to be able to assist her servant in any significant way, she doesn't have the mana for it, so why bother with it at all when you can have an Average One which can fight better against the enemy Master in theory, as well as being a higher tier magus in general.

Sakura's innate ability are great because of her lineage. Imaginary Numbers is just a gimmicky affinity that doesn't contribute anything aside from cases like her being hooked to an infinite source of mana and thus let her fight Servants.

The anime adaptions are shit, start with the VN, look for the Realta Nua version,which is the latest release on PC and is like 6gbs in size, and just google the translation patch, play order is Fate>UBW>HF, never play it out of order, that is the single worst thing you could ever do

After that you can just go from there which Fate whatever you'd like to try next

Imaginary Numbers is god-tier and while technically Rin trait is "less powerful" Rin trait will be more useful 99% of the time because Sakura's while also god-tier is less useful in a general sense.

>>159891436
>In the Fate/Apocrypha universe, the Fourth Holy Grail War didn't occur, Shirou is still living in Fuyuki with his original surname unchanged. His personality is a lot closer to his Capsule Servant counterpart.

Find the uncensored Fate/Stay Night vn. I heard that there might be a decensored Realta Nua version. I read the original that had some of the Realta Nua extras patched in. Play all three routes then watch Fate/Zero. From here you can watch the other anime adaptations if you want, Ufotable's UBW is a similar of quality as their F/Z adaptation. From there you can hop on the Apocrypha train since that's what new and hot or if you want some borderline hentai action-comedy with magical girls, you can watch Prisma Illya.

I'm aware of that, but the context is that she condemn herself for everything, do of course she vomits. Sakura ain't made to be an idealistic character, so we saw the flaws of her mindset, but the Shadow taking his arm was definitely an accident, not her will at work here.

Plus, if you are talking about the first encounter with the Shadow, I am pretty sure it's before a stage where the two are even that strongly sympathetically linked. Her love for Shirou is absent from its actions.

The affection check deaths are there for just ways of having a lot of bad ends. For instance, in the same day Ilya has fun with you a Bad End can occur if you don't have enough Ilya points she uses Shirou's soul as blackmail against Sakura (who doesn't know she is a grail), or if you're mildly a dumb ass to Saber, then she'll cut Shirou's head off when offered the grail. It's there to be a shock.

521 iirc. When will TM release another official popularity poll anyway? The last poll was released during TM's 10th anniversary which was on 2012. I'd be surprised if characters like Arcueid would still rank high because Tsukihime is probably forgotten by a lot of people. GO characters will probably take the spotlight this time. I wish Nasu would stop being a lazy fuck and work on Tsukihime remake already.

I seriously do not know why do people think that a route is canon in a medium that is basically the same shit as a CYOA thread.

The shadow is tied to her and deep down she know it, she just doesn't want to accept it (when faced with the reality that your subconcious is killing people everytime you go to sleep, who does).

Shirou surviving (or dying) the first time he met the shadow, and him losing his arm, both time are due to to her. First time, his entire body got covered and he got out fine, because she was happy that he spent time taking care of her. Second time, only his arm was covered, but it was burnt off, because she had the brief thought that "if he gets hurt he'll stay home".

> For instance, in the same day Ilya has fun with you a Bad End can occur if you don't have enough Ilya points she uses Shirou's soul as blackmail against Sakura

Illya is quite volatile, that's pretty in character for her.

>if you're mildly a dumb ass to Saber, then she'll cut Shirou's head off when offered the grail. It's there to be a shock.

That bad end require you to skip every single Saber affection option up until that point. It was even before the second time they had sex, so its not like Saber really likes you by that point (even though it did share some scene with the primary route, and Saber was a bit awkward after the threesome in the hut).

Strong world building, strong character building. Those two traits are Kinoko Nasu (TM's head writer) greatest strength. His weakness however is his tendency to excessively info dump and the resulting poor pacing. Grand Order's self insert format really tick me the wrong way. The writing in later segments where he starts writing again were really good (Camelot/Babylon/Saloman), but going from interesting characters like Ryogi/Tohno/Emiya to (You) feels awkward as fuck.

Again, where are you getting that she doesn't have the mana for the stuff you see in HF? I just mentioned how she was able to pull Rin into one of her voids and was able to put Rider in one with ease.

What would be mana intensive is that she wouldn't be able to make giga sized Shadow Giants anymore because those were the equivalent of her entire circuit load for just one familiar. And the void she has wouldn't be able to cover as much ground. But everything else, the drain lances, smaller Shadow Giants she can use for espionage, and being able to move via the void are all things that seem viable. Remember, the Shadow is using her natural powers, anything not pertaining to the taint is something that is Sakura's powers. Like when the Shadow blew itself up, that was hers too.

>>159892541
I'm not saying she doesn't have the mana for the shit she's doing in HA, I'm saying the shit she's doing in HA is irrelevant in a grail war, because she needs the Lesser Grail to be able to pull off fighting Servants, which is all Imaginary Numbers is good for.

The one scenario where having Imaginary Numbers would be beneficial over having even a single "normal" affinity like Fire or Earth is in Heaven's Feel where she can gank Servants. Otherwise, its useless in normal situation against other magus, as its only effective against spiritual bodides, and its not very useful against servants with her mana capacity because even if the trait makes her spell effective against spiritual bodies, she doesn't have the raw fire power to damage them.

True.

>>159892126
One of the few remaining chuuni stuff I can enjoy. Characters are fairly fun and interesting and world building as well. While the magic systems are wildly inconsistent because of exceptions happening fucking everywhere, it is still fun to read and watch.

About the only thing I dislike are the of harem or self-insert stuff that it holds onto. While someone like Shirou had elements of harem MC, he was still a clearly defined character who had his own development unrelated to being a harem MC, and the relationships themselves were not as contrived. Compared to the more recent stuff like Extra, Apoc, and GO, it feels like a downward trend.

>>159892678
Would be a good scene yes, though ending it on Saber kicking it would kinda delicious, the middle movie will suffer greatly at the middle child syndrome though, and I'm not sure if it should end with the Shinji Sakura scene, or if that should be saved for the third movie's unending amount of happening

>>159892278
>Second time, only his arm was covered, but it was burnt off,

Dude, the reason that his arm was burnt off was because he mistakenly put it up as he dunked down in a trench shielding Ilya, if the whole explosion hit him, he would be dust, not just hurt. And again, the very reason the Shadow even came put was because she was "asleep" (the spell required her consciousness to leave her body, and guess what comes out when she is unconscious?). The scene even tells you she cuts the connection and "wakes up" when she sees Shirou's arm get burnt off. While the Shadow was targeting everything with magical area in the vicinity without bias, such that Hassan was scared to even get close.

I know what you're trying to get at, but that was definitely an accident.

>>159892728
This. Mind of Steel Shirou is going to get killed by Illya+Herc or Rin+Archer, whoever get to him first.

>>159892728
Oh I agree with you there, especially since there's literally no way for Shirou to win when he's servantless, Rin's heartless, and every goddamn servant except Gil I suppose who wouldn't give a shit, are out for his head, and there are a lot of servants left

Whoever "wins" will ultimately lose because that's when Kirei will come down and say "pranked faggot" black key whoever it is in the ass and then watch how angry manjew is born from a VIP seat.

I disagree. Kotomine wants to watch someone's pure wish get corrupted by Angry Manjew's monkey paw shenanigans. He'll be watching from the VIP seat as whoever win fall to despair while Grail Mud leaks everywhere

>>159892748
>Otherwise, its useless in normal situation against other magus,

But I just mentioned a scene where she was able to target Rin when she was playing around. Rin struggles from her sucking her into one of voids. Plus there was the drain lance you only ever see once used accidently on Shirou that people call a tentacle, that is able to steal magical energy.

Or did you think that anything offensive she did was AM? Those are her powers. The reason she is a bad comparison with Rin currently is because Rin is better trained and most of the material we see her in is where Sakura is almost fatally low on magical energy.

>>159893196
>The alignment that Sakura was born with. Defined, in magery, as that "which is possible but is not in the physical plane". Also called imaginary numbers.

Fate/complete material III

Imaginary Numbers is garbage against things that aren't spiritual. Being hooked up to AM overcharged it to the point where it works on normal people.

Does anyone know a website that has all the graphics from fate/sn on it? I found it around a year ago but I forgot what the domain was.

>>159893196
To put it simply, Imaginary Number is one of the two imaginary element (the other being nothingness), and it deals with Ether, which are what spiritual bodies are made of. Just as "physical" spells don't work well on Ether/spiritual beings, spiritual spells (imaginary number) are ineffective in the physical plane.

>>159892971
Fair point anon, true as well. Between both Shirou and Rin losing it and Illya hating Shirou again he broke down all possible good ends for all of them. They all have no option but to vie for the Grail individually because that's the one way they can erase the despair they're now feeling.

>Fate/ Extra CCC's true ending is the MC being separated from their servant and ending with Sakura

I thought Kirei's goal was just to watch Angra Mainyu become born, regardless of who wishes for it. Sure, it'd be nice if it also threw someone into despair at the same time, but didn't he just want to find out the meaning of something being born, whose nature was only and purely evil?

He offered Shirou and Saber the grail in Fate underneath the church after Shirou saw the orphans, expecting him to wish away that event.

>>159894787
Nero was shoved down everyone's throats too much. Her chapter in FGO did nothing to help her in popularity either.

>>159894779
If you got the Archer ending then that means you fucked up, Heaven's Hole never became a thing, everything got reset with no one getting out and you died after beating Twice and saving Rin/Rani

>>159894814
But Tamamo is getting shat on in Extella/Zero too.

I seriously wonder if a Tamamofag tried to kill Nasu's mom and then a Nerofag who was a doctor was the one who saved her or something equally stupid.

At least Redman is safe from this mess.

What is Extella even about?

>>159894913
Aliens.

>CCC is all about mass Sakura faggotry to the point where the game has 4 Sakuras and the True End is the MC with Sakura

How come Nero gets shit on and not Sakura?

>>159894906
I mean the anime adaption of Extra.

>>159894931
Because one game was actually good

>>159894962

>Altera was okay.
Her ayylien story was kind of retarded. But her treatment isn't as terrible as Nero's (Heaven forbid as if Septem isn't enough to make her character unbearable because of Nerowankery) and Tamamo's. Extella is pretty terrible as a whole but I liked some things in it like Artoria's story due to how hilarious it is because Redman cooks for her forever.

>>159894931
Because none of them are Sakura even if they are Sakurafaces. They all are distinct characters with different personalities, goals and the such.

>How come Nero gets shit
Call me back when we get a Sakura game about how Sakura never did anything wrong and how everyone loves Sakura and how everyone who should hate Sakura for legitimate reasons comes and says they love her too.

Which girl was the best Tsukihime and why was it Kohaku?

>>159895099
Wrong maid

>>159895058
>>>Rin and Rani ded
According to Extella there were three survivors and one of them is confirmed to be Jinako by Karna. Hakuno is one of them obviously which leaves one slot for either Rin or Rani but it not mentioned who was. Hopefully it will be Rin because who the fuck gives a shit about Rani?

>>159894842
The side stories were pretty good imo

>>159894906
What's Extella/Zero? An explanation or prequel to Extella to explain all the retcons?

>>159895471
Nasu pretty much spoiled the plot of the Extra anime, this is what people have taken to call Extella Zero, because the events on it are what lead to Extella.

Extella was a mistake.
Let's pray to god that Extella 2 is a massive step-up from Extella just like CCC was for Extra, not that Extra was bad mind you, but CCC was a much much better entry.

>>159895528
So they just don't care about Extra and CCC storywise?

>>159895794
Not the same anon - why is extella bad besides being dynasty warriors?

>>159895798
Extra and CCC are "over" so it seems that if they wanna keep doing new stuff on Extra's setting they will most likely keep making it on the Extella's timeline.

Anon please, this is /a/ youre asking, where elitists run rumpant. Needless to say, I am one of them. If you asked on any other cancerous piece of shit anime discussion site theyd tell you to watch the anime adaptations, but I guarantee everyone here will tell you to read the VN first.

That said, read the fucking VN

>>159895850
>>159895928
Most of the criticism is centered around characterization, most prominently, Nero who becomes extremely wanked in the story for not particular reason at all. It just happens because she's Nero. And on the other side, there's Tamamo whose only role in-story is practically to be shat-on by it and to be cucked by Nero.

The other big criticism is that the central plot is dumb but that varies. Basically, aliens come from deep space every fuckton of years to fuck up earth and the last time that happened the alien got rekt by the Moon Cell on the Moon and Arthur on Earth but the Moon Cell couldn't kill it for realsies so only sealed it and now the Alien is waking up and could destroy Earth again.

>fate series
>"HEY GUYS, ALL THESE HISTORICAL MALES WERE ACTUALLY CUTE ANIME FEMALES BECAUSE WE SAY SO LOOOOOOL"

dropped

>>159896167
Also forgot to mention that Hakuno loses any characterization that he had and turns into a typical harem MC. Even the Hakuno that lost his memories and turns into a different person has more personality.

Could someone more knowledgeable explain why we are not getting female MC for the Extra anime?

>>159896351
Because then I can't self insert into Hakuno and pretend that Nero loves me.

t. otaku

>>159896241
Pretty much.
Extra and CCC happen at the same time on different sides of the Moon Cell.

Extella happens after Hakuno wins the Moon Cell War so basically after Extra or CCC but not exactly directly from them. Think of it of a new untold route on Extra which is what leads to Extella, and this untold route is Extella Zero which is what we are gonna get in the anime.

>>159896351
Because it's easier to sell MaleHakuno and Nero for waifu self-inserting and stuff like that.

>>159896351
Because if they take a turn for CCC later Male MC is far more fitting

Altera, more Moon Cell plot and world-building, the other servants whenever they get focused on, the SoL hijinks.

Anything that doesn't involve Nero and Tamamo is at worst decent.

Saber is probably my favorite waifu ever. She's beautiful and loyal. Only the Fate route really exemplifies why she's so great. Other than that just the general themes of the VN I find really interesting along with how the relationship between people can be vastly different from some minor occurrences.

>>159899144
She's the most boring Saberface.
Even the Titty Arthurias are more interesting than her.

Sakura and Rider are pretty much busty combo.

>>159908989
You are a good person

In the bad endings Sakura defeats Rin everytime. Only if the correct story options are picked does Rin manage to almost defeat Sakura, but doesn't because she can't suppress her emotions. That's the problem with discussing the series, really. Rin and Sakura are both equal in potential. The whole point is that circumstances need to be a certain way for Rin to be able to take over Sakura, but when it does she can.

>>159909786
People seem to forget that Sakura is souped up by Angry Manjew when fighting Rin. Trying to say one is stronger than the other just going by that fight is stupid.

>>159900217
>defends Saber
>call him a Rinfag
???

>>159909855
Literally did not matter in that fight. Sakura and Rin has the exact same output. They both had access to near infinite mana (Greater Grail for Sakura, Gem Sword for Rin).

>>159909786
Rin and Sakura are both equal in potential (magic circuit capacity/quality), but Rin has a trait that let her master spells from all 5 elemental affinity, including Ether which let her affect spiritual bodies anyway. Sakura's Imaginary Numbers is much better at it, but as a trade off that's the only thing she's good at.

>Shirou Emiya's origin is "Sword" and his alignment as a Magus is also "Sword". He is unable to use magic of the five great elements with precision because he doesn't have any of them as an alignment,

From Complete Material 3. Sakura would have the exact same problem.

>>159910845
>Sakura had a gorillion of shadows
>Rin could only beamspam once per swing
Totally the same.
You also coincidentally forget that every swing was fucking up Rin's arm while Sakura could keep shadowing without a care in the world.

>>159910903
First half of the fight they were equally match because their max output are exactly the same, one couldn't overpower the other. That fight even tell you this, they will continue to stalemate until Rin's arm falls off or Sakura break mentally, which she did, leading to Rin's "win", even if she failed to kill Sakura.
