Silver2195 posted:If you summon with no catalyst at all, you get the Servant with the personality most similar to your own. Even if you do use one, you get the most personality-appropriate of all possible Servants associated with the catalyst. Remember that it was the Ryuunosuke method and how it summoned the only guy crazy enough to become his aniki.

I think what counts as a catalyst can be very vague, for example he had just murdered some innocent people and used their blood to sketch the summoning circle; this could itself be the catalyst to summon Caster who did some similar evilness.

If I still wanted to read mock threads I'd look in GBS or PYF, but I don't hate myself that much. Who gives a gently caress about ANN?

I always thought the book Ryuunosuke was reading from while casting the spell had something to do with it. He said that his family apparently used to be into Demonology, and it wouldn't surprise me if Gilles d'Rais had some connection with his ancestors.

Of course every single Servant/Master combo is meant to be comprised of dramatic foils to each other.

Twiddy posted:I'm gonna guess where they're coming from. Unlimited Blade Works creates objects from nothing, so it could be said that he uses the first Magic "denial of nothingness." The problem with equating that to Shirou knowing True Magic is that you could then say that Fake Assassin knows the Second Magic because he can use Tsubame Gaeshi, which makes equally as little sense. Nope. Both Shirou's Tracing and UBW create the swords out of his magical energy, it's just that inside UBW, the cost to do so is greatly reduced since the world isn't trying to corrode everything he makes, since the space inside is literally another world with it's own rules.

If I were a master I would purposely not use a catalyst just to find out what mythical figure was the most similar to me. It would be sort of like one of those "what character are you from _______" online quizzes, but better.

Oh. In other TM related news, the insert song from episode 20 of UBW, Last Stardust by Aimer was released yesterday! It's really nice, but I like Aimer's songs in general so I guess I'm just a chode.

...well THAT's how she ended up at ANN. Always thought it was a little weird how she suddenly vanished from the Nostalgia Critic crew and went there, but if she's marrying the head of editorial, he probably hooked her up with a job and she reasonably went "gently caress these crazy people." (Also Jesus gently caress the head of editorial does ad copy for discotek)

I've been listening to the other track that was released with Brave Shine (Ophelia) and I think I realized the reason I like her voice; it's very reminiscent of late 90s early 2000s anime OPs/EDs along the lines of the early Naruto music and FMA. Just the mood thing I suppose. But yeah, Brave Shine rocks.

I told myself to take the tags at their word and avoid the clip. Then I looked at it anyway, and three seconds later I wanted to douse my eyes in napalm. Jesus christ destroy that link.

It is a magical girl show, so the protagonist is the strongest when she is trying to Protect Her Friends. Thinking about it more than that is just  .
