Why is Archer so popular? I don't get the appeal
He's cool
>>284148394Me neither. He looks cool. But the most you know about him the worst your opinion about him gets.Just knowing he is just Shiro makes him like the most unappealing husbando in that series.But then he also behaves as a petty manchild wanting to murder his teenager self just for the heck of it, because he can own his own decisions and quite literally hates himself
his death in the fate route is the funniest shit ever, he really said nah i'd win
>>284148394It's the weird shirt collar around his waist. It really ties the design together.
>shut the fuck up Shirou>Shirou, please>YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR ELEMENT SHIROU
>>284149834The duality of the manchild
>>284149852Don't lie, you're thinking about a John Goodman archer right now too.
>>284148394I like his personality and the design. You cant hate him
Was he always going to try and kill Shirou? It feels like he got offended by Shirou calling him a faggot after the caster fight
>>284148954>Just knowing he is just Shiro makes him like the most unappealing husbando in that series.But Shiro is prime husbando material.
>>284151890Exactly, Shiro is... EMIYA isn't.Shiro is for marriage and stay-at-home-husband.EMIYA is for fucking and dumping. He is too much of a depressed fucking asshole to have him around for too long
>>284148394He's cool, what else do you need?
>>284148954>But then he also behaves as a petty manchild wanting to murder his teenager self just for the heck of it, because he can own his own decisions and quite literally hates himselfIt's more like he's seeing his teenage self and cringes so hard at how he used to be that he wants to kill that version of himself - meaning he's a very grounded and relatable character.
>>284148394You'll never be as cool as him
>>284148954>he is just Shirowrong
>>284148394
which anime should I start with if I want to watch this?
>>284151890Sakura...
>>284148394He isn't though? Gil will always be more popular.
>>284148394>I have amnesiaOh, this must be a pretty important plotline, with him slowly regaining his memory being a big part of his character development.>I remembered everything by the second day, I only pretended to be retarded.I really hate Nasu's writing sometimes.
We used to have this concept called GAR before the internet was ruined.We called him GARcher for a reason.
>>284148394>Tragic stoic antihero type>Cool design>Cool power>Involved in a lot of cool moments throughout each of the three routes (sometimes even when he's dead)It really is a mystery
>>284157011KINGKINGKING GAAAAINER!!!!!!
>>284148394He's GAR.
Unlimited Blade Works is an inherently cool ability.
>>284158135And it is essencialy GoB but better>Rank downgradeLike that fucking matters.
>>284158449GoB would be infinitely better if Gilgamesh bothered to use most of his treasures as they're intended instead of just throwing them at people, which Shirou points out. He can pull out Gungnir and Caladbolg whenever he wants, but since he never bothered to use them they're no better than UBW's plain pieces of metal.
