Beef Waifu posted:It's not worth it. Tsukihime's really dated and honestly if I didn't read it when I was 16 I would probably have never finished it. It's just so badly paced and meticulous to read. It's got nice characters here and there, but for the most part they don't really love to be anything the stereotypes they betray. From what I recall I do like Ciel and Hisui, Arcueid's kind of grown on me too but that's thanks to spinoff a and crossover games. I gotta tell you though Tsukihime has the best bad ends, like getting attacked in a hotel by a shark. The Vita version and the PC play asia realta nu version (not talking about the original cd or DVD version) of FSN are identical if you use the english patch from beast lair, just to mention. Plus you get all sorts of extra options that don't exist in the Vita version. Myurton fucked around with this message at 18:59 on Oct 12, 2014 |

Beef Waifu posted:Yeah, but I can't be assed to sit at my PC and read all these words, which is my big issue with rereading FSN is I will probably not even make it out of the prologue before I stop reading it. Then do what I did and install it on a tablet.

thing about HF (and hoo boy there's a lot): the fact that Shirou is literally made of swords by the end. They don't really do a great job showing that in the VN but holy god drat it's going to be insane animated.

SALT CURES HAM posted:I played it years ago with the Realta Nua patch that added most of the extra stuff and didn't really see anything like that (with the exception of that bit in the Kirei fight), but maybe it's been added since or my memory's foggy.

I'm pretty sure I get the situation with Gilgamesh but I'm unclear on why Saber and Rider are able to stick around, other than 'their masters are soooooo great'. Gilgamesh (Fate route spoilers) was essentially eating people to stay in the world as was found out near the end of the Fate route. Saber (UBW route spoilers) Yeah Rin just has a poo poo ton of mana or something apparently Rider (Heavens Feel route spoilers) Sakura is a loving holy grail herself so of course she'd have a near inexhaustible mana supply to keep Rider around Myurton fucked around with this message at 05:34 on Oct 20, 2014 |

They will probably remove and replace the h-scenes as well which is fine by me, though admittedly I could have it either way. Though I am wondering what they would put in their place, hopefully nothing really dumb. Also I hope he writes in more Zelretch. edit: It will also probably be available on Play Asia much like Fate/Stay Night is. Myurton fucked around with this message at 01:17 on Oct 21, 2014 |

Suddenly I had the image of a giant Neco Arc having Shiki in her mouth like some anime piece of fish, with the other Neco versions watching smoking cigarettes. Also to those that don't know there is already three different versions of the Tsukihime soundtrack. The original visual novel, the Ever After remix CD, and the Tsukibako version of the game which has slightly different music from the original.

BlitzBlast posted:RN's changes to HF kind of ruin a lot of things about Sakura's personality and motivations, but to be honest "was molested 24/7 for most of her life" is a pretty lovely backstory. Yeah but it fully explains why she is so screwed up. Also the scene where Shinji tries to rape her "again" and then ends up dead is one of my favorite scenes since I highly dislike that slimy bastard.

Both would have absolutely insane fights, that and the fight against Crimson Moon. Primate Murder and Altrouge makes the thing that was being created in Heavens Feel, Angra Mainyu to be weak in comparison, and Type Mercury is just really freaking weird and horrifying and very OP.

Because no one seems to want to bring a translated version of Fate/Extra CCC to north america or europe. Also you should never pick Gil in that game as your first servant cause he kinda spoils the entire plot of the game, since he seems to have knowledge of what is actually going on and will mention stuff all the time to ruin the story.

Um yeah I should remind you guys that in Heavens Feel Zouken states that the grail is not choosing people to be masters. He never exclusively states who or what is, but it is heavily hinted at that the guys who setup the grail war have a say in who gets to be a master and who doesn't. So it wouldn't really surprise me if the Einsberns choose Shiro to be a master cause they wanted Illya to murder the poo poo out of him cause his dad betrayed them.

Raenir Salazar posted:Shinji's personality in the latest episode really reminds me of both Araragi and Shirou. Personally I feel like its kinda easy to see how and why Shirou and Tohsoka would be reluctant to ever kill Shinji. I have a feeling they wouldn't be so reluctant if they found out what he's been doing to Sakura for years, and I'm not talking about the beatings. Sadly Realta Nua removed that part of their relationship, since I feel it helps explain a lot about Sakura's character.

Just cut to black before clothes come off like the all-ages patch for Tsukihime does, way the gently caress less clunky than mana dragons and worm vampires and whatever the hell. It's not like people are going to have a heart attack at the suggestion that two characters boned at one point. This is exactly what I wanted to happen. This whole ham fisted way of trying to rewrite the story and turn her into some kind of mana vampire thing made no sense to me. Just cut to black and have him wake up in the same bed.... Now the rewriting of the Saber and the Tosaka sex scenes to be something else entirely, now that I'm on board for, seeing as those scenes actually make no sense to exist in the first place.

Silver2195 posted:I thought there was a line about Archer having a lover somewhere. Many people seem to assume it was Ilya (ick!), but my pet theory is that Archer hooked up with Ciel, since she's the one who gave him his shroud. Actually there was originally suppose to be an Ilya route as well but it was eventually scrapped. Perhaps that route led to Shirou becoming Archer, though we will probably never know.

Twiddy posted:Yeah the actual problem is that she shouldn't be able to make an Excalibur copy as strong as the original, let alone stronger, let alone stronger than one with Saber Alter mana behind it (if that's supposed to be similar to the real Saber Alter). Then again, wonky doujin mechanics I guess Ilya is just better than all the servants. Ok having never really watched that show, beyond that fight and a couple other scenes, but I think I can still give a Nasuverse answer. Ilya much like saber has a gigantic magic circuit, but she has the added bonus of being a holy grail. Now I'm assuming that the heroic spirits (or what was left of them) that she defeats during the series get pulled into her, thus turning her into a perpetual motion machine for mana generation. Also because the heroic spirits are but shadows of their former selves, the part where she eventually breaks down and dies is probably avoided. So basically with the crazy big magic circuit she has and the added bonus of being able to access holy grail levels of mana, she can basically pull off OP as all hell attacks if she were to transform into a heroic spirit. TL;DR Ilya is a magical girl and friendship wins in this type of show. Now lets talk about something other then Prisma Ilya, please. Myurton fucked around with this message at 18:02 on Jul 28, 2015 |

Even though Unlimited Blade Works isn't my favorite arc of the story, I do feel they did a pretty decent job of animating it. Now we just have to wait for some Heaven's Feel movies (crossing fingers for more then one since the plot is so long.), and perhaps someone will be nice and actually finish translating Witch on the Holy Night.
