I'm actually working my way through the vita version now, and some of the voice acting is just fantastic, especially Makidera and Taiga

AlternateNu posted:EMIYA is from a timeline where Shriou participated in the 5th HGW, but I don't think his particular iteration of it was an option in the VN. (Maybe Mind of Steel?) It's distinct from any of the timelines depicted in F/SN, since iirc Rin didn't even summon him as a hero in that timeline.

The throwing the swords like a boomerang was a HF reference yea, it was taken from the one dead end where Shirou fights Dark Saber without Rider. Basically that whole invented subplot with Sakura near the end was as well.

rvm posted:I'd say Paradox Spiral is second best after baseball arc from DDD (Sinker vs. Slugger) which in my opinion is the best thing Nasu has written, dark urban fantasy at its finest, but if you can't read Japanese, Chinese or Russian, you're SOL, and it's probably never going to be animated Did anyone ever translate DDD past the first part, or is that dead? I read the first few chapters on my own since I own the books, but it is stressing my jp pretty hard.

Not to mention that you have to get through rather tedious previous arcs to fully appreciate it.

LORD OF BUTT posted:So uh... do we know anything new about the HF movie yet or did we all just kinda write it off Ufotable is currently being destroyed by God Eater's production, not to mention all the other projects they have lined up, so chances are there isn't going to be news on it for a while. From what I recall, the last thing they said was that it's going to be a single three hour movie.

It's a little bit more, because chapter 5 is the biggest chapter by script size (though that's balanced out a little bit by 3 being like literally one scene). The end of chapter 5 happens to be a really good break point though.

His real strength is in character design imo, but I do like his art. On a side note, finally got around to finishing Mahoyo, and the ending gave me a lot of good feels.

Priestly posted:If you liked how FSN presented its action scenes then you'd love what Mahoyo did. Tsukuri Monoji is an absolute madman. Have you read the interview with him, Nasu, and Koyama Hirokazu on the production of Mahoyo? Really fascinating stuff, though it makes me a little sad that they didn't have time to redo the final fight to be on quite the same level as the Flat Snark scene.

Yea, the overriding thing with new Type Moon VNs is more a matter of time than anything else. Let's not forget that Mahoyo was in active development for 6-8 years.

Udon brought over the first volume at a pretty reasonable price, but that was back in 2014 and there hasn't been any word from them on the rest of it.

There are things about his prose I like, and he's improved a lot in his writing overall since FSN, but it's his character writing and world building that have always been his strongest points. Regarding the latter, he feeds you just enough technical detail to serve the purpose of the narrative, while leaving space for the reader to fill in the blanks on their own eg the specifics of magecraft/magic, the grail system, mystic eyes etc. He also doesn't mind being flexible about "canon" if it serves the story better to ignore it, which he's talked about indirectly before. Anyways, have some out of context bits from Mahoyo that I liked

Started reading 蒼銀のフラグメンツ, the Fate/Prototype novelization by Hikaru Sakurai, over the weekend and it's a lot more readable than I was expecting, though admittedly my baseline there was like, DDD, which I never got around to finishing the first volume of.

Baal posted:Also Mahotsukai was the last thing they made four years ago which was the most recent VN they made after FSN. This is really the main thing for me. Mahoyo was in active development, if I recall, for like the better part of a decade as their main project, and before its release they barely said a thing about it. They're just that kind of team.

Nyaa posted:I decided to read Witch of the Holy Night since I need more type moon stuff in my life and holy poo poo they drew out every single scene!? The cg count is actually relatively low, they just drew insanely high quality sprites for everything, including some one offs, and Monoji Tsukuri choreographed everything out like a madman. Side note, he was also the one in charge of directing the bridge fight in FHA.

cheetah7071 posted:Thanks. I was prepared to be shocked by how much worse the gacha is than Fire Emblem Heroes (6% chance of highest rarity, lower rarity characters can be upgraded given enough time, f2p rolls come often and it's only $2 for a character if you pay) but that's pretty dire. Haha, I'd kill for 6% SSR drop rate in Starlight Stage. SS has 1.5% for the highest rarity, and GBF iirc has 3%.

Haven't read CCC, but Mahoyo is the best thing Nasu has written that I've read. It really raises the standard for visual novels in general imo, on an artistic and technical level.
