Fatefags, your opinion on Ryohgo Narita

Yes, fate/strange fake is great.
His writing style is suitable for battle royale like Holy grail war

No, too much meandering

>>161663614
I like his work on the newer bleach novels.
So he's alright with me.

>>161663614
He is the best fate writer so far.

It isn't hard to be better than Sakurai and Higashide.

Despite Sakurai and Higashide being horrible Fate writters, they had written more better stuff than Nasu.

Narita is outright one of my favourite writers period, so I felt pretty blessed when f/sf evolved beyond an April Fool's joke. Needless to say, I give this question a yes.

No, Drrr ende up becoming an insufferable mess.

He's different compared to Nasu. Higashide is trash, but Sakurai is good when she write her own original stuff. Basically Sakurai is trash when she write anything related to Fate. Especially about female Fate characters.

No, DRRR proved how much of a hack he is.

If there's one thing I noticed in his other works, Narita is too much of a pussy to permanently kill of major characters or make them suffer overmuch. He also likes huge ensemble casts with dozens of different characters. I just don't think that's a good fit for a a Fate series where the premise is that characters are in a battle to the death. You can't refuse to kill anyone and then keep adding to the cast on top of that. It's just going to make everything feel really cheap, bloat out the story and make it less interesting the longer it goes on.

In many respects Narita is at the opposite end of the spectrum from Urobochi, who is more than willing - eager even, to kill off characters and make them suffer. And to be clear I'm not much of an Urobochi fan and I tend to find his style as too dark and terrible for Fate, in that it ultimately misses the point. But as Strange Fate has been progressing I find that it's this world of endless build up with no real payoffs yet and nothing to make the stakes feel like they matter.

That said, Narita does have good ideas and I like his choice of words. And Ahab got me pretty fucking stoked so I'm on this ride until it's over.

That's probably the most 'old person' complaint that I've ever read on /a/

>all of the characters but fastwheels die in the last volume

>>161663614
His works are often a lot of fun, as long as he doesn't start piling on more and more characters into his stories.

>>161663614
I like he tries to make sure SF is consistent with other fate entries despite Nasu himself telling him to just go nuts and leave it all to lol multiverse as an excuse. SF right now is a huge clusterfuck in a good way

>>161670064
Yeah, many people just give Narita shit for being such a huge autist, but to me it seems like he really cares for his work.

Caster? Ryuunosuke? Deermud? Sola-Ui?
