i'm gonna be totally honest, I've always kind of liked Tsukihime's soundtrack? there's none of the straight up GET loving HYPE stuff like Emiya or Mighty Wind or Light & Darkness but the soft, melancholy vibe the whole thing has works perfectly for the Far Side routes and still fits okay in the Near Side ones

Yeah I've got a huge soft spot for the Ever After soundtrack and it's absolutely killer on the Far Side routes.

Heaven's Feel is getting another set of screenings in America as of June 5th and June 7th and it's for the dub, which is neat.

If nothing else, I'll probably go see this to hear Hassan's voice, but Kari Wahlgren Saber is always good even if Kyle Mccarley Shinji loving sucks.

Which tvtropes page did you steal this opinion from, Stair? Because I know you had no idea who suwabe was before you read FSN last year.

Or did you ask endorph to read his entire filmography to you and now you are all of a sudden a Suwabe nerd

Actually it is bad. It's turns Ilya into the blandest character ever, there's blatant :pedo: appeal, and even the "good parts" like Archer!Ilya vs. Saber Alter don't actually make sense in the context of other Fate stories.

I legit remember like a bath scene one time and the weird scene with Ilya being into maid uniforms and those were within the first two epsides iirc. It's more front loaded with poo poo whereas the 8 episodes after that stuff is relatively tame, also why does making sense within the context of other fate stories matter in a spinoff that is very obviously operating under its own dumb rules for the sake of its own story? I mean the show wasn't anything special, but I hardly considered it anything more than kind of sketchy at a few points and mostly okay at others. As I said though, this is just me speaking from the perspective of somehow who heard it was the worst poo poo ever forever and watched and was mostly just kinda "Alright sure" to a lot of it.

I guess it helps I don't hold Ilya up to this golden pedestal because I already didn't have an amazing opinion of her in general?

Fair point (there was some skeevy stuff involving Ilya in F/SN too), but Prisma Ilya removes everything interesting about her and then makes her the main character.

I'm not saying you can't have a good magical girl series where the protagonist is more or less an ordinary 10-14-year-old girl. Look at Cardcaptor Sakura, for example. But the Ilya is Prisma Ilya just doesn't have enough depth or realism to work as that kind of character, and she's so far removed from the Ilya of F/SN (who does have depth, though not realism) that there's hardly any point in giving her the same name.

It's from that movie and it's pretty drat poo poo. Even leaving aside all the pedobait stuff, it's really really boring and overly exposition heavy even for Fate. It's also got a lot more failed comedy in normal, which is honestly worse than the failed drama. It even adds new terrible characters like Ruby who severs no real purpose besides dispensing exposition on already explained topics and making jokes so bad that they make Alf look like the height of comedy.

Ruby was introduced in Fate/Hollow Ataraxia

In fact all of Prisma Illya is an extended riff on her appearance there
