Weirdly enough, I think the perfect fit for him in terms of personality is in actuality Caren.

>>291762805
I think they would make each other quite happy, but it's not a popular pairing because they're very "vanilla" and their relationship would lack the kind of drama the romance audience is used too.

>>291766067
Because Caren is a natural born martyr where Shirou is a fake one. Both are twisted in a way (Caren's sadomasochism turning her martyrdom into a form of sexual gratification and Shirou's lack of self worth making his martyrdom a form of self-validation/vanity). Seiba is a heroic figure and ideal but wasn't set out to martyr herself in the first place. While Angra is the one acting in Shirou's place, Angra is still Shirou at the end of the day. The way Caren aggravates him is the same tension she'd have with the actual Shirou. Angra's just honest about how she'd make him feel and would want to respond. Their dynamic in Epilogue is incredibly reminiscent but Shirou's aggravation towards Bazette and Caren is downplayed compared to Avenger's.

Rin is more a relationship you have with someone you have absolutely nothing in common with but come into because you like each other. Sakura is a pity fuck at best. People can pretend like it's something deeper: it's not. You can't fix someone and trying to is exclusively in retarded fiction that makes people ruin their lives.

>>291765942
They were meant to be as shallow as the route they share, which is why it drags all the way till the end

Rin and Sakura make the most sense for Shirou.

>>291766493
vague posting much

>>291762805
Sucks. Fate/Zero and others are so good because there are multiple protagonists with valid motivations to win this fucking WAR and then there's Shirou who's just the specialist boy with nothing special about him so all the girls take care of him except he's actually most specialist so he has teh powar! and his surrogate nanny and surrogate wife and surrogate sister and surrogate maid all LOOOOOOOVE HIM for no reason whatsoever. Saber is a goddess.

>>291766101
So it's based, is what you're saying

>>291766266
Shirou tries to fix Saber, the entire route was him trying to save her, she never once tried to save him. He tried to save her from her personal hell, she never reached out to fix him once. He kept reaching out to her until he reached Avalon, that's their entire dynamic. A man reaching out to an impossible ideal, getting her to accept that it wasn't a mistake.

Rin tries to fix Shirou, the route is her constantly trying to fix him, that's the only aspect the image got right.

Sakura and Shirou are both broken in similar ways and make a complete person together, they both lean on each other in the same way, even Prisma manga comments on how that's they're dynamic. They're trying to fix each other, but they're both broken together as well, its why they're compatible. They're both broken trying to play normal together, they rely on each other to be normal. They fix each other by existing.

>>291766907
Nope. Not even close.
Not that either. She tries to, gives up, and realizes he's not wrong either.
and just fuck off with that delusional broken half shit

Shirou, in a way that goes far beyond any faceless generic MC, is less of a personality and more of a set of desires that molds himself around the person he is with. He is the perfect match that is suited for any partner because he cannot be anything else.

>>291766101

Women are kind of ambivalent about Sakura, because while what she has what it takes to be right up their alley, the route is framed in a victim-blamey way where a big fat deal is made out of her possible culpability and need to die for the greater good while her abusers are shrugged off and left to live another day until she deals with them herself, which receives little fanfare and is treated as part of her "downfall" rather than the liberation it actually is.

The movies did a pretty good job at getting rid of the victim-blaming nonsense, but the manga might be even better since it shows the story from Sakura's perspective even during the early days in a way that makes the reader understand her perspective, as opposed to the VN where her intermissions were all "ooo spooky yandere look she gets angry just like any person what a red flag" shock value garbage.

>lack drama
Saber is an emotionally stunted woman from centuries ago that is completely out of touch with modernity (she was out of touch back in her day too), never developed past age 15, is incapable of considering things from more than one angle and is stubborn as hell.

Shirou is the embodiment of surivivor's guilt, has PTSD, anhedonia, whines too much and has zero self-esteem despite being a gigachad.

There's a whole lot of drama to pull here. The thing is, Saber and Shirou don't match. They don't do anything for each other, it's a shitty couple on the same level as Shinji x Taiga.

>>291772337
>There's a whole lot of drama to pull here. The thing is, Saber and Shirou don't match. They don't do anything for each other, it's a shitty couple on the same level as Shinji x Taiga.

>>291766907
Sakura has no understanding of Shirou as a person, she never even gets close to figuring him out. She idolizes him and sees him as a light shining in darkness. She tries to imitate his disposition and outlook as a way to save herself from her own terrible life.

Shirou goes well with either Saber or Sakura, but Rin is better off with Archer or Lancer. Illya doesn’t understand romance.

>>291762805
No real strong opinions. They work alright together. But as time goes on Artoria's character has become a rather shallow demonstration of Fate's writing. She just kind of exists, her story has become so much about everyone around her instead of herself that the series at large has become very much like actual Arthurian mythology.

What do you even mean by this? She has a very established backstory, and by the end of FSN her character arc is complete. In the fanservice spinoffs where she sticks around after the war, what are you expecting her to do that is any different from any other character of the VN cast?
Unless you're seriously talking about the gacha and using it to disparage a VN character. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt you're not doing that. Because that would be embarrassing.

>>291776912
I mean any content whatsoever.
>and by the end of FSN her character arc is complete
So everyone else gets to either develop more, provide amusing commentary, or be given additional contexts to work with, but Artoria alone has to be locked into a coffin?

>>291762805
They can only get together when they are both dead in a fantasy land with no other other humans around. Something like that never appeals to me. Not that I like their chemistry that much to begin with.

You can, it's just really difficult

You can do some things, but definitely not sword in sheath action.

Underwater sex is not fun and not something to attempt. Take it outside the bathtub.

I know the Deen adaptation has a lot of issues but the soundtrack is too fucking good for me to care.

People keep blaming DEEN but the truth is the Fate route is only good as an introduction to the world of Fate, the writing itself is really bad and most of the Servants get shafted. The worst part is definitely Kotomine jobbing to Shirou, it makes no fucking sense after you see what he's capable of in HF.

I love that part where Rin pulls the Azoth blade out of her anus. No, really, there is no other place where it could have been hidden considering her outfit.

Rin and Saber, sitting in a tree.

Funny thing is that DEEN and ufotable both wanted UBW. Nasu wanted Fate route.

What would Kerry say if he saw Shirou dating Saber?
