It kinda hurts your odds if you're summoning a guy whose own origin story starts with "this guy was a rapist for so long and so brazenly that the people convinced the gods to intervene".

Nasuverse Gilgamesh has next to nothing to do with mythological Gilgamesh, unless you're assuming he's only from the "I'm the world's most prolific rapist" stage of mythological Gilggy's character arc. He is however very similar to historical Alexander the Great in both appearance and personality. Nasuverse Alexander the Great has next to nothing to do with historical Alexander the Great. He is however very similar to mythological Gilgamesh in both appearance and personality. edit: Something that really bugs me though about Gilgamesh in these stories is the "first hero" bit. This is flatly isn't true. He is from the oldest surviving work of literature but within his own story Gilgamesh references older heroes from past stories that either haven't survived to the present day or just never transitioned from oral story to writing.

You know it'd probably be easier to know that if they didn't include explicit references to Enkidu whose existence should indicate you're in the part of his life that produces a chiller Gilgamesh.

Same thing happened when I went to a local screening of Dredd. Some parents are bound and determined to ignore the MPAA rating.

Avicebron is the most uncomfortable character in the show and that's an achievement. He's literally a Jewish wizard using the blood of children to power his magic. How did not no point out what a bad idea that was during production? The idea of Shakespeare as a servant is great. His actual execution is straight up wasted potential the character. Why they made him a fanboy for fightmans is something I will never understand.

Yes and the Made in Abyss anime removed most of the manga's sexualization of children. You can change things in adaptation.

Watching Apocrypha feels like watching late 90s WCW. The booking is awful, you get dumb gimmicks to cover up for bad choreography, and the actual fights are a confusing mess.

Mordred is actually entertaining to watch, hates the rest of the cast, and disappears for extended periods of time. If she gets roped into a terrible story line that destroys any enjoyment of her character and makes her look completely incompetent, I'd say she's spot on for Ric Flair.

Blockhouse posted:"Shirou is misogynistic" and "Shirou is a complicated character" and "Shirou is good, actually" do not have to be mutually exclusive concepts Blockhouse posted:It's not impossible to imagine someone being put off from the series by how he acts in the Fate route because of hiding any kind of actual insight into his character until a thousand words later. Hell, I thought he profoundly sucked the entire way through that route but people told me he got better, and while he does I couldn't begrudge anyone wanting to tap out before then.

Having a huge amount of explanation as to why something is boring does not negate it being boring in the first place. Also a static character examined in excruciating detail is fairly common in novels, particularly long ones.

He's mostly just watching anime instead of reading so I was about to point him towards the first series but I suddenly recalled that was totally garbage. The ubw series was much better received. Is it a good starting point though, or does it expect people to be up to speed as to what happened in route 1?
