Who does /a/ like more?
Her.
>>288457340>topStill well known and celebrated.>bottomForgotten before her manga even ended.
>>288457340The fuck do YOU think, OP?
>>288457970That's not her fault. For all the retarded stuff Type-Moon gets up to, Raildex is unironically one of the worst handled franchises ever outside of pachinko. It's a colossal fumble from their presence in the late aughts/early tens
>>288457340Middle-schoolers are superior to high-schoolers. Does thst answer your question?
>>288457340Biribiri
>>288457340Rin and it's not even close.
Mai waifu Misaka. I also like Rin.
>>288457340Rin is perfection.Biribiri is horribly mishandled and could be much better,
>>288457340
>>288457340Saber
>>288459732DEFENSELESS
>>288457340Railgun is the best anime I've ever watched. It's my favorite.
>>288459773That was Rider's anus though.
Misamisa is a much better coupling than Rin/Saber
>>288459904That's because Rin is best with Shirou.
>>288460476and seiba
>>288460486And Archer
>>288460518archer is shirou
>>288459859Bro I don't understand a single thing about Fate. You could be telling the truth or fucking with me and I wouldn't know.
>>288460552in this case, he is
>>288459227>>288459700not that much in the know about toaru, how bad of a mismanagement are we talking
>>288460552The "anus is defenseless" line comes from a dream Shirou is having about fucking Rin. It is Rider (Medusa) giving him the wet dream as a means of making him ejaculate while sleeping so she can steal mana from him. You see it in the scene when the so-called Rin in the dream shows her eyes and they are Medusa's eyes and are coloured exactly like Medusa.It's Rider dream-fucking him but making him think it is Rin by using her face, except for when the illusion slips.The reason Medusa took Rin's face in the dream is because Shirou's subconscious considers her the most attractive thing he's ever seen, so it will get him hard most effectively.
>>288460908she is also physically raping himbecause it's hotter that way
>>288460568>not that much in the know about toaru, how bad of a mismanagement are we talkingThe main series Index has 3 seasons the first 2 of which were passible and made between 2008-2011. It took until 2017 for season 3 which tried to compress too many books into 26 episodes resulting in a mess of cut content and rushed pacing. That was the last season of the main series. The novel series is now 38 books ahead of the anime with only 23 adapted and no new season on the horizon.The spin off Railgun faired better with 3 seasons (2009, 2013, 2020), still a big gap but all of them are higher quality than Index and a new season coming next year. The 12 episode Accelerator spin-off in 2019 was mediocre. We have an ITEM spin-off coming later this year, quality unknown.The manga doesn't fair much better. Everything is released on a monthly schedule... for a fast paced Shonen. The Index manga was been running since 2007 and is about 19/62 novels in (3 were skipped). The popular Railgun spinoff manga ended on a 5 year long flashback arc because the artist wanted to move on. The Accelerator manga failed miserably. The ITEM manga has been on hiatus for a year. The Mental Out manga has been... okay.The books are split into 3 series. OT (24 novels), NT (23 novels) and GT (15 novels ongoing) but none of the visual media has passed OT including the many spinoffs. It feels like they lost their chance to ever reasonably catch up to the series, only now just coming back with anime after 6 years(9 since Index) and it is more spin-offs. There is clearly no real plan.

>>288461184>The books are split into 3 series. OT (24 novels), NT (23 novels) and GT (15 novels ongoing) but none of the visual media has passed OT including the many spinoffs.No series needs 60+ books to cover something like six months of in-world time.
>>288460908Ok, two followup questions because you're cool and knowledgable:Why does Rider know about her defenseless anus?What's going on with Ishtar?
>>288461294>Why does Rider know about her defenseless anus?It's Rider's anus, she is perfectly qualified to judge whether her own anus is or is not defenseless.>What's going on with Ishtar?The Rin-possessing version? Or the Einzbern homunculus variant in Strange Fake?
>>288457340Tohsaka but I've fapped to Zipzap more times.
>>288461347So this whole time I've been misled about the defense status of the wrong behind? Fate is a cruel mistress.Also, I have no clue. People be posting Rin in half the clothing and calling it Ishtar and I have to just accept this. I've only watched Fate: Zero, in memory of a friend. I think UBW is next.
>>288460552rin has sex with shirou for real in unlimited blade works and hollow ataraxia, the rin sex scene in heavens feel or better known as the "defenseless anus" scene is a dream induced by rider
>>288461470Ishtar (pic related) is from FGO, the gacha (which has an anime or two admittedly). During the events of the Seventh Singularity, the player goes to ancient Babylonia, from back when Gilgamesh was still ruling. It was under assault by a couple of goddesses and then Tiamat, Beast II.Ishtar (Mesopotamian Goddess of Love, Sex, Beauty, Fertility, War, Grain, Uruk, Queen of the Heavens, and a few other things) was summoned by the priests and priestesses of Ishtar's temple in Uruk. But because a Divine Spirit cannot normally materialise as a Servant (barring a variety of exceptions because the mushroom can't stick to a rule to save his life), a living human was necessary to serve as the container. So the ritual that the temple used searched the timeline for a living person connected to the Grail, and who would be able to match Ishtar's "wavelength". The person they found was Rin, so they snatched her body from Fuyuki in one timeline and shoved Ishtar into her. The two beings (Rin and Ishtar) merged, making for an Ishtar that is 70% Ishtar and 30% Rin in terms of personality.Normally Ishtar is queen bitch of the heavens, but because Rin is so good-hearted and kind, her influence drastically modulates and tempers Ishtar's worst impulses, so she ends up kinder. At the same time, Rin also refocuses Ishtar's abilities - Ishtar normally would have powerful charm and seduction abilities, but because of Rin it is only a generic Charisma effect (still enough to rule a country as a beloved queen though) and Ishtar can no longer deploy her divine energy in just "anything" but can only store it in gems. Both effects of Rin's personality.There is also Ereshkigal, because if Ishtar is summoned then Ereshkigal is chain-summoned with her, but that's another thing. It also makes for a great joke because as far as Master-Servant compatibility is concerned, Rin and Gilgamesh actually have the highest possible compatibility. Which is hilarious because Gil hates Ishtar.
>>288461470Ishtar is just the Goddess being summoned as a Psuedo-servant in Rin's body, anon. Happens in one of the chapters of Fate/Grand Order, and it's mostly Rin's personality making Ishtar less of a bitch. Don't worry about it too much.A lot of the OG FSN and Zero non-servant cast got Psuedo-servant treatment in FGO. Shirou and Muramasa, Waver and Zhuge Liang, Sakura and Parvati, Illya and Sitonai.Other than that, have fun watching UBW. Take a look at Prisma Illya or Garden of Sinners (same author as FSN and also made by Ufotable) if you enjoyed Zero.
>>288461668>>288461702gachashit isn't canon
>>288461714Anon, Nasu has gotten to the point where he's spoiling Mahoyo 2 plot points in the gacha. He clearly doesn't give a fuck any more and is happy to just put all his stuff there.
>>288461734nopenot canon
>>288461184>>288460568There was a time when Toaru was bigger than anything Fate around 2012, and they decided to release Heavy Object instead of S3. What a bunch of morons
>>288461755
>>288461773notcanon
>>288461779
>>288461734>>288461714>>288461756>>288461773>>288461779It is and isn't canon you can pretty easily say fgo is separated from everything else or you could do the opposite.
Neither.
>>288457340The Rail gun whore is hotter.
>>288461756>>288461184how are you supposed to save the franchise, yuribaiting isn't gonna cut it anymore
>>288460476Those two turned out incredibly well.I still can't get over how Shirou rocked that green shirt.
>>288462630>whole foodsHow do Rin and Shirou afford that while living in London? Their rent and living expenses must be ridiculous.
>>288462674Since Rin is consuming jewels just to practice, I'd imagine food costs are minuscule in comparison.
>>288462625Like lean into the actual cool characters?
>indexPFFT!Magic side is unbelievably boring.
>>288462882pffffffffffft at least use birdway
>>288461756And thank god it isn't anymore.To Aru is a fucking garbage series and has been since day 1.
>>288462630They're a perfect couple.
>>288462989Just how much do these faggots in the raildex threads that read the whole pile of shit hate themselves? It's like a ponzi scheme where you're so invested and lost so much that you keep going until you die
>>288463141Cult in a genuine sense.
>>288463172>>288463141>>288462989samefag
>>288463190Schizo behavior.Be kind and close the tab.
>>288463190We want to help you. Stop hating yourself.
>>288460908Am a primary, this anon is correct.>>288461010My favourite thing about this one is Illya's banner saying "death penalty".>>288461668I'm not sure about Rin and Gilgamesh having the highest compatibility, though...they don't seem to care much for each other in the VN. Rin thinks he's an arrogant fuckboy and Gil is too hung up on Saber to really care about anyone else.>>288462674UBW is set in 2005, I think.>>288463117I quite like this artist.>>288462695No she doesn't? Charging a gem is a fuckton of work. The most common way to charge one involves having to draw your own blood regularly and refining it into pure mana.
>>288463406>I'm not sure about Rin and Gilgamesh having the highest compatibilityIt's from side material.>金のかかる女・凛との相性が最高にいいというのはボクラだけの秘密だぞっ>His compatibility with large-spender Rin was the greatest, but that is a secret between you and me.
>>288463443...sounds like a tongue in cheek joke to me, honestly.
>>288463466Type Moon jokes are deepest lore.
>>288457340Tomboys are for Oyakodon!
>>288462630I can't dissociate lighter shades of green from duck poop on docks.
>>288462630Adult Shirou looks like the type of guy who can fix keep Kama (evil Sakura) and Ishtar (evil Rin) on a tight leash and not get bad ended.
What happened to that bit of lore that Gods are way too powerful to ever be compatible with a mortal vessel?
>>288457340This must happen more.
>>288463618TM must have received so many complaints about the UBW H-scene being super gross and rapey that they had to have felt like they needed to make amends.
>>288457340Rin, no contest
