Congrats Fujimaru-san you saved humanity! After meeting countless Gods, heroes and legends you get to be the most heroic spirit of all planet, JAPANESE SALARY MAN! Oh the obvious girlfriend you were with? SHE NEVER EVER EXISTED LOLOLOLOL. Thanks for paying for 10 years!
>>729458194>Oh the obvious girlfriend you were with? SHE NEVER EVER EXISTED LOLOLOLOLthe ending is literally him meeting Mashu and both smiling at each other
>>729458840>>729458194What happens if the player chose the female avatar.
>>729458910not canon as stated multiple times over the years
After saving the universe he didn't receive anything?
>>729458194What drives japs to write that shit? Are all jap writers accountable before some governing body of jap elites who will brutally punish them if they dare to produce any story where the moral isn't about becoming a corporate serf?
>>729458910Everything is exactly the same except the final CG and animation use the female avatar.
>>729458194Resets are good when dealing with multiverse garbage.
>>729458194did it actually end?
>>729458194>Accomplishes everything through plot armor and narrative conveniences >ends up as a literal nobody Sounds fair to me
>>729458194Cinematic Kino of the highest level No gacha can’t compare Nasu is the fucking GOAT Apologize you fuckers!
so what are they doing next? does the game end, are they doing a new story, are they doing a new gacha?
>>729458194Idgaf about fgo post lb6. Im so glad nasu can move on and do real projects before he retires in 10 years
>>729458910Idk. Try asking the trans community or /r/girlgamers
I thought they would go the "easy happy ending route" and lostworld or something
Did they release a new Mordred yet? Mordred was the reason I started playing that shit game and the only reason I would come back to it.
>>729458194>Oh the obvious girlfriend you were with? SHE NEVER EVER EXISTED LOLOLOLOL. Deserved. FGO is fundamentally garbage and will never be able to measure up to FSN in all it's beautiful glory. Never ever.
>>729458194Can you explain in details? I don't know anything about FGO other than jacking off it characters.
so when do we find out whether this was a setup for fgo 2 or if they're gonna keep milking fgo for another arc?
>>729460808Literally nothing good has ever come from Fate.
>>729461008that's what i want to know>>729460960fgo is basically the apocalypse already happened and you're doing a bunch of magic bullshit to undo it, then a second apocalypse happens and you do a bunch of bullshit to undo that too
>>729461008New Years. They've confirmed that there's going to be content up to at least the 11th anniversary (end of July/start of Aug 2026) but whether the game just coasts in maintenance mode limbo or starts a new arc or something else entirely will probably become clear next week.
>>729461008As a day 1 NA dumb whale, I'd rather they restart because FGO as a game FUCKING SUCKS and I'd rather play something Nasuverse related that sucked less
>>729458194But they do end up with eachother right at the end when they meet again. Also there is still New Years and the setup for the next game. Do you really think they are going to let their cash cow die?
>>729458381I say this and I look like this
>>729461152>but whether the game just coasts in maintenance mode limbo or starts a new arc or something else entirely will probably become clear next week.Anon, they still shoot up in gacha charts whenever they make some bigger release. They're not letting go of the cash-cow.Especially since the devs already got asked to make some newer gachas and they were always super-costly flops. Like when Sega asked the FGO folks to make the Sakura Wars gacha.>https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.destructoid.com%2Fsegas-sakura-wars-mobile-game-has-been-a-costly-catastrophe-will-shut-down-six-months-after-launch%2F&opi=89978449
>>729458194Source?
>>729462427They don't need to work with the same devs for the next game
>>729460960In the 1st arc of FGO's story, which lasted from Summer 2015 to New Years Eve 2017, you're undoing a destruction of the timeline that's been foreseen where everything 2018 and beyond is destroyed. You succeed and then come back to "normal" life to deal with the fallout.Then part 2 lasts from January 2018 till today which was about how immediately after you return the planet gets destroyed again and to simplify heavily this time a bunch of alternate timelines are trying to take over as the new main one. The twist they revealed in this ending is that the entire FGO timeline is an aberration on the main series' timeline, it wasn't meant to happen and was created by changing the events of a previous story. So in order to fix the world from the 2nd destruction you undo EVERYTHING that happened in the entire game to this point, retconning the entire storyline back to baseline.
>>729462805>The twist they revealed in this ending is that the entire FGO timeline is an aberration on the main series' timeline, it wasn't meant to happen and was created by changing the events of a previous story. So in order to fix the world from the 2nd destruction you undo EVERYTHING that happened in the entire game to this point, retconning the entire storyline back to baseline.So a literal "it was all a dream" ending? After all these fucking years? That's all they could come up with?Holy fuck, I'm so glad I dropped this shit years ago. I would've been seething right now.
>>729463024I quit this shit since LB6 was revealed and I'm still somehow pissed that they went with this fucking sorry cop out ending
>>729460103The main story, yeah.But the game continues on. Not sure if they'll keep support for it or if they will just leave it at a legacy mode, or something like that.
>>729458194I've done it. I have killed this kusoge with my own hands.Thank you Nasu, for delivering a cool ass final boss, and the bleak as fuck ending I had hoped to see. I knew I could count on you as always. You've still got it.I do also hope there is a second ending for when you fail to beat the final boss before the end of the year, or refuse to, which seems to be the case. Delete my account over it if you must.
>>729460474>No gacha can’t compareSo they all compare?
none of you guys actually spent money on this game right
>>729463024People have been predicting for years that it was all going to be a reset end and that was what we got. The opium right now is that it isn't technically done as there is more stuff coming on New Years.
Wasn't Chaldea supposed to be like the wizard CIA? You don't sign up for that if you want everyone to suck your dick because of how famous you are. If you do your job well, no one should know you did anything, that's the whole point.
>>729463024>So a literal "it was all a dream" ending? After all these fucking years? That's all they could come up with?Four of Nasu's previous works (Kagetsu Tohya, Hollow, CCC, Actress Again) end this exact way. If you are surprised now, you must be a tertiary.
Is there a genuine reason Japan cannot in good conscience create good endings?
>>729459389It's really interesting to me how different Western and Eastern stories like this are. Eastern involves everyone growing up to be like fucking baseball coaches and the like and settling down to normalcy, Western just is like "that was a cool fucking adventure, let's go on more!" and is usually more open ended even if there's a time skip with kids involved or the like. Weird to me how it is
>>729463871If I had to guess, it's a cultural acceptance of transcience and things ending
>>729463849>Kagetsu Tohya, Hollow, CCC, Actress AgainAll of those are half-comedic fandisc sequels to his main works that didn't get fucking erased from the timeline. FGO is a monumental piece of literature compared to them, purely in scope.
>>729463871Japs are humiliated and subjugated people. Only retards don't realize just how important pop-culture is for shaping the population's mindset, so it would be given that their pop culture is carefully curated by the party which subjugated them, to make sure they would stay demoralized and humiliated. Especially considering that we're talking about US, which has the most well known precedent explaining the importance of this shit in history (during Great depression Hollywood was mandated by government to exclusively produce happy endings, to keep population spirits high).
>>729463871It's a great ending, it's just not a happy ending.
>>729463024It wasn't a dream anon, you undo a time paradox essentially.
>>729463871Define a 'good ending' first.
>>729462427>Like when Sega asked the FGO folks to make the Sakura Wars gachaThose faggots just need to make another Sakura Wars game proper, release a collection of the old ones on steam, do fucking something with the IP and stop just living off fucking sonic and yakuza money
>>729464112>he didn't read Back Alley Nightmareoh no no no
>>729463843The end of part 1 handled in it in the correct way where nobody but the people in Chaldea know what you did and everyone outside is insanely suspicious, handling that cleanup was a cool idea that cut short.This is outright altering the timeline so nothing even happened and none of it mattered. It's just back to square 1.
>tfw you're a sealing designation enforcer and the bells are ringing
>>729463871Japan seems to have this weird idea that living a normal life is a happy ending. I don't think that is completely wrong, but just hinting at the implication of a normal life isn't really enough.I imagine if the ending to FGO was Guda reuniting with a servant of the player's choice instead of it being Mash and the implication of Guda and said servant being in some kind of relationship would probably make people more happy with the ending.
>>729464168Something that does not involve parting with friends and becoming a salaryman
Awful ending
>>729462427That wasn't a good thing, Sakura wars gacha died like in 6 months and killed whole IP.
>>729464397Okay, you part with friends and work in the coal mines.
>>729464168Rance X
japanese writers when the ending to their epic quest is "nothing mattered, you peaked in highschool, go to work" for the billionth time
>>729458194lmao is this fucking real, now I am glad I never even got into this kusoge
jerking off to porn of the characters continues to be the sole correct way to enjoy a gacha
>>729463871Western idea of a story is to write a beginning, an end and build from one to the other.Chinese idea of a story is to write whatever as long as it's enjoyable. Japanese follow that mantra.Great for serialised works, especially ones that go to near infinite lengths and still pretend to build towards "something" but it falls apart the moment the anime/manga/game has to end and they obviously never prepared any setup for that to happen. So any ending is a self-contained episode that simply happens to be the last.Cue popularity for return to status quo and erasure of all things that had occured up till that point.
>>729458194any melties
>>729464305>Japan seems to have this weird idea that living a normal life is a happy ending. I don't think that is completely wrongThis depends on what is constituted as the normal life. If the normal life is that you have 60 hour work week (you don't do anything productive most of time) after which you have to also drink with your coworkers if you don't want to become a leper pariah, then I don't see how it's a happy ending.>>729464168Literally the same except chaldea foundation paid MC a huge stack of money + decent lifelong pension so he doesn't have to wageserf in jap corporate hell and ask himself every day why didn't he just let the world to be destroyed.
>>729464740/fgog/ is in SHAMBLES
>>729464740there will be melties when the second ending unlocks after the next year, and the game calls you a pussy for not wanting this slop to go on
>>729458194Is Nasu going to actually finish Red Garden now
>>729464275cute boy
>>729458194https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV13tBCBqEndhttps://www.bilibili.com/video/BV13tBCBqEndhttps://www.bilibili.com/video/BV13tBCBqEnd
>>729465295Gudako is not a boy.
Second ending will just be XB2s ending
The way I see it cuck endings in JP works wasnt that common until recently, like naruto became a hokage at the end then you get to modern shit like MHA and its fucking gay as hell, it seems like the writers are too demoralized now while JP writers from the 90s were more free.
>>729465428what kind of girl dresses like that >>729464275
>>729463024>”it was all a dream"
https://files.catbox.moe/g456ua.mp4It's here.
>>729465601Gudako, duh.
>>729458194Based, Mashu should have stayed dead in part 1.
>>729465498>naruto became a hokage at the endAnd it turns out that being the hokage is the exact same as being a salaryman, doing pointless paperwork all day and neglecting your family.
>>729465498Some anon said Japanese government made mandatory salarymen endings into a law because too many young people got mind fucked with the reality of absolute state of average life in japan. I can't confirm this so take it with a grain of salt.
>>729465947You are genuinely retarded if you believe that
>>729466030I mean chinks have this type of shit with women's romance novels I don't see the reason of why the other bugmen country can't have that.
>>729465601would you prefer gudako more if she was a boy
>>729463843Chaldea doesn't even exist anymore not that (you) ever signed up for it to begin with you were literally scooped off the dtreet
>>729464169Shin Sakura Wars wasn't that long ago
>>729461041Wrong
>>729466217isn't that just Shirou?
>>729466471>Shin Sakura Wars wasn't that long agoanon...
>>729466678I could've sworn it only came out 2 or 3 years ago...
>>729458194He can be a salaryman. Gudako will go back to her true calling, enjo kosai
>>729466030>>729466104I can attest that Korean do something similar with their dramas too, using them to portray romance in a specific way that incentivizes women to date (because the drama gave them some fantasies), in a vague attempt to fix birthrates since women there don't really like long term relationships and are feminist as fuck.
>>729463849>HollowF/HA was a time-loop story and Bazett remembered what happened after breaking the loop. She grew as a person and learned from her experience. That's very far from a "it was all a dream" ending.
>>729458194So what's next for this IP? Are they done with gacha games?
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO
>>729467086Have an A plus day!
>>729467086Why the fuck is Mashu and MC the only people with different hair colors? Why are they the only anime characters and everyone else realistic?
>>729467189That's how anime characters work.
>>729467189to help them stand out more
>>729467086What a dork
>>729464710japan sometimes doesn't follow this mantralook at real eva and doujin stuff like towelket. or other stuff that's popular with otaku but not with chinese or gooks like needy girl overdose. look at how out of all things it was fucking nekojiru that became their worldwide mascot once. japs actually have a frontal lobe and the ability to empathize so their stuff sometimes rises above meaningless feel-good entertainment life cope for wagies, but it's rare. and since chinks invaded the country (2000s+) and their money took over the whole creative industry all you can get is meaningless entertainment or random shitposts from senile boomers that dont mean anything either
I'd play FGO 2 if it is an ARPG and NOT a live service shovelware chinkshit gacha.
>>729458840it was left ambiguous, aka it didnt happen.
>>729467189That's just standard, the real weird part is that Gudako went from bright orange to basically a brunette
>>729466798Why are Gudako players like this
>>729463849Hollow had a meaningful ending aside from the slice.Angra helps Bazett participate in the Grail War and confront Cu so she can make peace with the fact that she's already dead and go on to eternal rest. Granting her wish that started this story also means he ceases to exist even though he'd come to like living. It wasn't a dream or something that never happened, and it certainly wasn't phoned-in dogshit to top off a ten year live service slop run with "save human history" scale.Nasu actually admitted he regretted applying himself for LB6.
>>729467631Nothing can hurt him ever again
>>729463823No, but I did spend a lot of semen for Quetzalcoatl, female Ritsuka, Astolfo, and Mordred.
>>729458194Were retards honestly expecting Nasu of all people to honor every bit of waifufag pandering dialogue in the game to appease their wish fulfillment delusions?
>>729463823I think I spent like around 100 over all the years in those special gacha summons that they do once a year, they were "decent" until they went from 10 bucks to like 25.
>>729467947the problem is that it's never even something decent. the protag in these endings doesn't use their experience making decisions to avoid the end of the world to become a major part of a corporation or start their own buisness or become a respected teacher.it's always some fucking grunt job, in japan the country where you technically work 8 hours but do 1-4 hours of unpaid overtime every few days. there used to be a middle ground between pure pandering fantasy and humilitation ritual but now jp media is always a 95% the first and then suddenly the second at the end
>>729467631>Nasu actually admitted he regretted applying himself for LB6.Can I have the quote?
>>729458194The real FGO was the memories we made along the way. Think of where you were when certain content came out. Those times will stay with you forever
>>729468225L-like the lion fiasco?
>>729468174But people are saying he sets up a bakery and reunites with the main girl. That sounds like a nice wholesome ending.
>>729463849KT, HA and AA are very upfront that everything is an illusion though instead of rugpulling you with it
>people have been playing this dog shit this entire time
>>729468320>bakery right before covid with the NTR queenHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>729468320isn't it "my DREAM is to do that, but I don't have the money yet"
>>729468407Worse yet, people will play the NA server still knowing the game already EOS''d in japan, they'll probably still pay money too
so if gudao should work as a cashier for the rest of his life after fgo what should gudako work as
>>729467086>off shoulder jacket out in the openMashu is such a fucking whore
>>729459047Then why does the Master selection default to female when you first start FGO?
>>729468586my wife
>>729468638she has so many doujins for a reason
>>729468586Women don't have to be wage slaves, they can always join the "entertainment industry."
a gacha game has a bad story????????????? woah........I've never heard of that before.............
>>729468586onlyfans account with mashu
>>729468586Prostitute. If she works hard enough she'll be able to retire in 10 years at most.
>>729463823200 bucks during Camelot for Arthur and the boys, thankfully everything else over the years i wanted i got for free
>>729468651It was an conspiracy to turn players into female character players, as gacha players are already weak willed to begin with.
>start playing FGO on day 1>get max copies of my favorite character (pic related)>never touch the game again
>>729458194Terasu MC's ending was far better, agreed.
>>729458194Did FGO end?Wha happun?
>>729468972What's going on here
>>729467086>GudakoCringe
>>729458194its a fake out. they're still in the simulation though, so there's still part 3.never trust mages, they're always off their rocker
>>729468972did he post it already?
>>729458194So new game announcement? Surely they won't run with the money, right?
>>729469070Cuckolds forcing their disgusting fetish on everything as usual.
>>729468902based king.
>>729466217Uhmm... y-yes...
>>729469098YOU are cringe
>>729469114Doing this ending and taking it back to do more Ordeal Call style filler is even worse than just ending it. At least giving it a definitive ending is ballsy. Part 2 SHOULD have ended 4 years ago anyway before they delayed everything.
>>729469176>you self-insert as the cuckold!what
>>729469296how do people even go without bathingi cannot fall asleep without taking a shower first, i just feel too disgusting
>>729465257Yeah but he has to start it first
>>729459047>not canonNeither was the story itself from the looks of it, lol.
>>729469070godako is mind broken to remake the world but as she does she launches a broadcast into the entire human race saying 4 billions human males will be cuckolded now by a superior man, and they can never cum againthen all women in the entire world are rated from 0 to 10 and all the 10 women are to send a 50 hours long movie of them torturing their boyfriends cocks, before going to Chaldearin and sakura are both a 10, which is nice to recognizei don't think it's a sustainable plot for the human race
It’s ok, Space Ishtar's bond CE is the true ending
>>729469470where do i find this?
>>729469470What the fuck?
>>729469470cuck extermination campaign when?
>>729469578terasu has the weirdest and most esoteric cuck plots, you see
>>729467086Isn’t this just the same as the ending to the NGE Rebuild movies>Well that was fun, now go back to the real world you dorks
>EVA Rebuild ending.Fucking why? Did people in Japan actually like the Rebuilds?
Thinly veiled fromslop reference
>>729469693yes>>729469752nah
>>729469693>>729469752The manga did it first (and better)
>>729466475>beat the game>open game>no more game>open player profile>piano rendition of Last Piece is playingHow can you lose something that you've never had?
>>729463407This game actually had a story? It’s a gacha, I just assumed they made up random shit on the spot to have a reason to come up with characters for players to spend money on
>>729466808Yes, same goes for KT (which everyone involved remembers), Actress Again (which Sion certainly will remember), CCC (which the protagonist will remember) and finally Grand Order (which Daybit will remember).
>>729468972Is this faggot still doing NTR for MCI swear he was the only artist left for FGO like 5 years ago
>>729458194Ended up as the most cucked up gacha mc, more than Aether even lol
>>729470207i remember the endless stream of doujins and fanart when fgo was first outthat was niceit's all just ankoman and ntrslop now
>>729458194lolmao
>>729470310kek
>>729461041FSN is an embodiment of goodness, pathos and poetic beauty in and of itself. FSN is timeless masterpiece.
Olga death is an insult to life itself. We failed to save heroine who begged us to not save her because she's useless and wants to die. This was a 3rd time.
>>729470310hehehehehe
>>729470275Lots can change in a decade.
>>729463871Most endings, period, are bad.
>>729470275Is ankoman still at itWhat the actual fuck is wrong with these leeches
>>729470867Ankoman has done more for the Fate community than you ever will.
>>729463871Not only can Japan create good endings, you don't need to go far as the original Fate had 3 good endings already.>>729464305>>729464907Normal life is a happy ending if the alternative is fighting every day against gods, monsters or whatnot.
So what was better, part 1 or part 2?
>>729467086So what happens to all the other servants the MC collected? Is this a timeline reset and they return back to the throne of heroes and completely forget about him?Cause that would be funny knowing how many people spent thousands on their favorite girls only for them to disappear in the end
>>729470867there is one thing i don't understandhow the fuck can none of these fags draw a normal looking dick?
did we ever learn what beast V is
>>729470954Part 1 had the better ending but lower lows. Part 2's only real stand out chapter was lb6 however. The real answer is 1.5, which brought us CCC and Salem.
>>729463849Kagetsu Tohya is a bit different in that it still happens, the setting is a dream but Shiki is still actually interacting with Len and his own memories. And he forms a contract with Len and she stays with him after he wakes up too.
>>729471090Dicks are destined to be censored so why learn drawing them accurately?
>>729470954Part 1 is 80% dogshit, 18% alright (Camelot onwards), and 2% immaculate kino (mostly Solomon and the ending of Babylonia).Part 2 is 40% dogshit (largely Ordeal Call), but frontloaded it's 50% alright (most of the Lostbelts) and maybe 10% kino. LB6 by itself is a really good read even with no context. The finale is also great.If EoR was counted into Part 1, it would look even worse.>>729470940What have FGO fans ever created, other than porn?
>>729471281they have thempresumably
>>729470947when the alternative is living in a box with straw floors and working 60 hours a week as a neo-feudalist corpo slave that barely makes my food and rent bill every week I think I'll take the god fighting
>>729471442<when the alternative is living in a box with straw floors and working 60 hours a week as a neo-feudalist corpo slave that barely makes my food and rent bill every weekThat's still better than literally 99,9% of history and if you played FGO and actually read the story you would understand that.
>>729471294Did Sakurai write any Ordeal Calls
>>729463871There is a lot good endings. Bad endings catch more attention because negatively is easy. And on anonymous imageboards it's actually more fun to doompost than praise something. Very addictive activity too. But this ending sucks cocks hard. >The bad guy is actually good guy and AI is a real bad guy. Don't questioning his human experiments. >Olga dies 3rd time after Nasu make her so likable, In absurd situation.>Servants are screaming about REMEMBER US but we will forget everyone and everything>total memory wipe ending >MC didn't learn anything, didn't pass his knowledge to the future generations, didn't remember anyone. Hero journey? Eat shit.
>>729463636Truly a dark and bleak ending, "everything goes back to normal and you go to work"
>>729469114It better be because I removed this shit form my phone, this shitty ending is so crap I'm not gonna bother anymore.
>>729471631i am unironically going insane
>>729471586Olga dying is fine. Cute girls are best when they die. It makes them more likable because now you get to be sad they are dead.
Cool, cool.Does that mean Nasu will work on something other than mobile games now, or will he be a lazy fuck since he's probably a billionaire?
>>729471736yesred garden never
>>729471736mahoyo 2 any day now

>>729471731This is the writing. >Olga Marie: Woah!? I’m awake!? I have hands!? What is this!? What are you doing, Fujimaru! You’re going to fall off the Storm Border!

>>729470954Part 1 is better, Part 2 lostbelts are garbage, the writing is so bad.The problem is the set up for the lostbelts is just bad, you cannot try to write something good around this because the lostbelts are worse than ghettos, like seriously even detroid is better than any lostbelt. yet the writing tries to work around this, which is impossible.If anything part 2 taught me is that RACISM IS ALWAYS OKAY.
>>729458194I'm glad it was rendered pointless.
>>729472047Detroit Emiya
>>729472047WTF? I love Lostbelts now.
>>729458194Nice ending Fatefags
>>729471736The fact that you idiots think he's just going to start making other shit because the mobile game is done is the dumbest shit. He's a fucking billionaire, if he wanted then he could've made the Nasuverse as big as fucking Pokemon. He NEVER needed to focus all of his time on FGO and from the result we got, he never did that to begin with.
>>729472231I doubt BA's ending will be any better.
>>729471553Id is strongly Sakurai-coded.It's also probably the best Ordeal Call, strangely enough, in being the least inherently pointless.>>729471586You need to learn to let go. That's all there is to it. (Also, you need to actually read the fucking ending in the first place before you comment on it)
>>729471631You know that Fujimaru could be unemployed in the real world, right? It's not the salaryman ending (but it is the Hideaki Anno STOP BEING A FUCKING ADDICTED NERD AND GO OUTSIDE ALREADY ending, though).
>>729471006Mashu is the only canon servant
>>729472382
>>729472290Probably not, itd be hard to top Where All Miracles Begin.
>(You) the Japanese salaryman were the true hero all along (also escapism is bad or something)holy fucking kino
>>729472559>he's not a soulless salary man>he's a miserable neet
>>729471960>Do I have to say this is just troublesome for you to understand!?>this is the machine translated writing. Doesn't it suck?doesn't really look like you're arguing in good faith to me
>>729472635>>he's a miserable neetwow he's literally me
>>729472290BA won't have an ending because the writers don't know what the fuck they're doing anymore. It's either just "bad thing is happening in the main story" and a bunch of event stories that don't actually matter.
>>729472635Being a miserable neet is what playing gacha is all about, so yes.It's not about doing something specific, it's about not wasting your time on bullshit fantasies and cartoon waifus.
>>729458194Best gacha ever
>>729472661>the ending is good....MTL badと、言いたくない気持ちが割とある!!!!!!きのこ!お前マジでさぁ!いや、ラストバトルはマジで良かったよ!?テンション上がったし、あれさっきいませんでした?となるぐっちゃん夫妻とかさぁ!ORTくんとかさ!笑えるところもあって。たださ、所長の結末あれマジで何?いや、わかるよ。人は終わる時にしかその人生の価値はわからない、なら、あんな悲惨な死に方をする前に笑っていけたのなら最高だという話ですよね。いや、でも、だからって死なすことはないだろ!あそこで助けても結局消えるじゃんとかは抜きでさ、せめてあそこはその手を掴ませてくれよぉ……でも、藤丸恥ずかしいランキングの1位と2位がまだ未発表なので期待してます(そういや残された謎はほとんど回収されたけど割と謎増えてない?)けど、シオンの最後はマジで良かったなぁ……2部終章だったらあそこが1番好きかもしれん………シオンありがとな……ネモ船長もありがとな……ゴッさん含めたカルデアメンバーからの熱い別れの言葉も良かった。立ち絵初めて見たどころか初めて喋った人の方が多くてちょっと面白さが勝ちそうになったけどゴッさんのセリフで泣いてしまった。デイビット!!!!ありがとうデイビット!!!!お前マジでありがとうな!!!!覚えててくれ、そして、いつか、この旅の続きの幕が開ける時、お前が語り部となってくれ。待ってるからなぁ!!!!藤丸とマシュ。最後の最後にマシュが藤丸を名前呼びするの、うるっと来ちゃったよ。なんでもない私からなんでもない君へ、もう会うことはないでしょう。でも、あっちゃうんだなぁこれが!!!ENDはベタベタだけども良かったですよ。あと、どっかに帰っていったゲーティアとフォウくん、あとなんかオルタ的な伏線建てた名探偵。お前ら仲良いな。好きだぜ。と、トータルで言うのなら正直投げやり感を感じるところもありました。キャラクターの結末とか既に決まっているところに押し込めた感を感じるところは多々あり、展開も駆け足、結末もそこまで奇抜なものでもなく、きのこの言ってた「ソシャゲらしい終わり方」ってのはよくわからなかった。しかしながら10年、10年の積み重ねを持ってこの結末を見ると良い話ではない。面白かった話だ。以上!!!!!!!
>>729472635Good ending hes just like me
>>729458910Mashu rapes you.
wait so the game is over?EOS tied to a finished storyline?
I'd rather consign the world to eternal doom than spend a single minute more being a wagie.
>>729458194No refunds!
>>729472713>a bunch of event stories that don't actually matterSol kino
>>729472626>Ritsuka never opens the bakery or becomes a Paleontologist, instead a wagie>them meeting Mashu likely never happened lol
>>729464034Western literature follows the "Hero's Journey" format where you're fundamentally changed by the end of your adventure, you CAN'T go back to your old life either literally because it's gone or metaphorically because you aren't that person anymore.
>>729472865It honestly probably fits the setting better. Even with the "Final Chapter" and chapter 3, I don't think anyone expects a super serious story out of BA.
>>729472831The final boss tells you she'll fix everything and create new worlds for you to fuck around in if you just stop resisting her.Then the game gives you the option (different from usual dialogue options) to walk away from the final boss in the middle of dialogue, displaying a date notification above the node.Overall, the game strongly suggests that something happens if you don't beat it by the 31st, likely a second ending.
>>729473013>>729467086
>>729473078>go back to being a literal who nobody wagie>or keep hanging out with your harem of big boobed literal goddessesHm...
>>729473050Agreed, I think events are the best part
>>729473078Nigga that says 2019.Anyway so do the people that beat the boss have no account anymore?
>>729471142Is nasu actually going to find a way to insert KT's story in the remake without it feeling really awkward?
>>729473191but I play Gudako and collect handsome men instead.
>>729473078Define "fix everything".
>>729473289I don’t know. Maybe. It would be a really bad choice to not have Len at all. Maybe a sequel to the remake, however long that could take.
Who's this final boss?Any pics?
>>729473278Retard
>>729473078It's basically just ripping off persona 5s ending except in p5 you and your friends don't lose their memory so it's not just all for nothing
>>729470048>reuses Last Piece for CCC to carry the emotional scenes>reuses Last Piece for FGO to carry the emotional scenesCan't make this shit up
>>729473317Now you'll collect fat old japanese salarymen
If true ending isn't real I can only imagine japanese rage across all social media once spoiler embargo falls.
>>729471731>Cute girls are best when they die.Are you a gacha writer? Can you please kill yourself if so? This idea of killing off a generic girl I've known for 30 minutes doesn't make the story engaging at all, specially after every other gacha has done it.
MY FUCKING ASTOLFOS AND OTHER CUTE BOYSI SPENT SO MUCH FUCKING TIME COLLECTING THEM AND LEVELING THEMDON'T TELL ME I'M GONNA LOSE THEM NOOOOOOOOOOFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
It's a really gay ending, Gudako gets nothing for all they've done. Heroism should be rewarded, they can't at the LEAST get some sort of recognition for their deeds?
>>729472748you just proved his point
>>729473860What deeds? I can't remember. Maybe Daybit knows.
>>729473860You got a lot of pussy which makes it worth
>>729458194But the MC got a higher rank at the tower and is meeting with the girl, why is OP saying he's a washed salary man when it's the opposite? why is OP literally lying?
>>729473860Just put the fries in the bag, wagie-kun.
>>729458194I'm glad I quit after Solomon. Imagine being emoyionally, spiritually, and physically invested in this gacha kusoge for 10 years just to get an MHA-tier ending.
>>729473865You can't trick anyone in 2025. Sorry, but JSLs lost their gaslighting powers. The ending is certificated kusoge and after 3 years you will cope about NA mistranslations of Nasu's Wet Farts.
>>729474218>Imagine being emotionally, spiritually, and physically invested into any gachafixed
>>729474240We gave up Barghest paizuri for....waging
>>729474285True
Why are broke bitches mad about a game they don't play ending?
>FGO ended and didn't eos>GFL ended and didn't eoskino
>>729473975>The herbivore bland MC got pussy
>>729470048>Last PieceThat's the LB menu theme
>>729474471the people most upset are the whales thoughbeit
>>729463024It wasn't a dream, the stuff happened and you make the decision to turn it back so as to let humanity continue. At least one person does remember what happened at least.
>>729474471This confuses me too. Either there are a lot more FGO players on /v/ than I initially thought or people are just talking shit out of ignorance per usual.
>>729474615>you were such a chad in this life you never lived
>>729474471The only ones upset are whales tho. F2P eating good.
>>729474471The majority of us dropped the game years ago and came back to witness the shitshow
Thank god FGO is a turn game because I was bawling during the fight.So fucking good
>>72947463495% of the people haven't even bothered to use auto-translating software, much less read the normie translations on leddit
>>729473278It's the year 2019 in universe, as well as (that's the joke) the year the game was originally projecte to end.>>729473278That would be literally illegal to do, so no.I've beaten it, there's no more main story nodes, you can go back to anything you didn't finish. The intro screen changes, the HUD changes all around, some characters get new lines and updated profiles (most of the LINK LOST servants are back in the pokédex, Solomon's says something like DUTY COMPLETE, Da Vinci's saying her lifespan finally ran out, final boss's profile is added but clearly incomplete). Your profile gets a mark on it that shows up on supports, denoting you beat Part 2. Player profile plays Last Piece, a theme that plays at the end of several entries, and basically says 'everything is good now, so you can fuck off and not touch this game again or you'll just make things worse', think Undertale ending.If my profile gets deleted after new years I wouldn't mind, but who knows what happens. Most likely the one thing we were promised that did not happen (Foreigner Ordeal Call) will be framed to happen regardless of ending chosen.
>>729474471it's the usual chink seething that his gacha has a worse story and people are losing interest
>>729458194Character looks like he exclusively consumes pagpag, is this for self inserting reasons?
>>729459389Literally nothing is written as badly as the fate/stay series, every single ending in the history of fate has been a cop-out.
>>729474240Your post just made it clear that you can even read...
Feel this way.
>>72946382320,000 usd
I played this game until the middle of the story without knowing how to level up my servants and just relied on the supports

>>729472290>>729472713Is Arknights the only gacha that might actually have a good, logical ending?
>>729474774It's pure kino. Coolest boss in the game, an it's no even close. I don't think any phone can possibly handle that level of production value.Honestly, the fact anyone who doesn't beat the game in time is missing out on a fight like this is proof enough that they chose wrong.https://youtu.be/e8hwwzqlJt0?list=RDe8hwwzqlJt0
>>729463024It was all a dream/fake/ect can work if done well. I quit fgo like 8 years ago maybe more but was curious so my knowledge of this ending is just what was posted here, but a way to make this kind of ending work is to have the main character sacrifice himself to achieve the reset and allow important characters to remember said sacrifice. Living in this situation is always the worst ending for the main character, a heroic death to save mankind with only a few remembering the legend is a bittersweet ending but it's the better version if you have to go with a reset.
>>729475287> I don't think any phone can possibly handle that level of production value.You can run GTA 5 in any snapdragon phone made after 2020.
>>729475281Bro Arknights is "the" bloated chinkslop.
>>729475265I don't know, I also skipped the entire story
>>729458194>After meeting countless Gods, heroes and legends you get to be the most heroic spirit of all planet, JAPANESE SALARY MAN!Does that really happen? Anons usually lie, but KINO if true.
>>729475264>wrong opinionsWhy lying
>>729463823A few GSSRs, so probably around 100 bucks ever it's life. >>729475397For around 5 minutes before it starts stuttering because phones had dogshit heat management and will throttle themselves to avoid bursting into flames.
What are the odds they're actually releasing a sequel with tech from this century instead of whatever archaic fucking shit FGO is?
>>729459389The bad ending of the original FATE was the protagonist actually deciding to tear down the corrupt system and ending up ruining everything.It's the anti-Persona.
>>729475478You see the MC in japan in casual clothes, not a salaryman suit. But basically he goes off and is a normalfag now, not a salaryman specifically.
>>729475287I knew they were to bring in kino because of the Mahoyo collab final fight that was amazing tooWhen Patxi appeared I was like WOOOOOOOW and started crying
>>729475505>For around 5 minutes before it starts stuttering because phones had dogshit heat management and will throttle themselves to avoid bursting into flames.nah, you're so behind the times.
>>729475502>no rebuttali accept your concession
>>729470164>which Daybit will rememberBest character in the best lostbelt with the best backstory partnered with the best servant.
The ending is actually PEAK CINEMADo not believe EOP mtlslop eaters. I cried when Olga died 4th time. It was so dramatic. You...can't...save anyone Kiritsugu once said. Especially fat girls.
>>729475579What about the orange haired girl? Does she get dicked down?
>>729475264anon, part 1.5/2 spanned eight years and half of the chapters didn't add anything to the story
>>729475661STOP KILLING OLGA
>>729475509Fucking whatThe bad endings of FSN all revolve around Shirou dying (or turned into furniture)Case Files and other FSN lite sequels are predicated on Rin joining the Clock Tower (sometimes as a student of Zelretch, sometimes on her own merits) and coming back with Waver (a survivor/"veteran" of the 4th HGW) to dismantle the greater grail.
>>729475397Yes, but this game is optimized far worse, being famously complete spaghetti code written by one guy that got fired, that no one remembers how to work anymore. That's the primary reason why Sony might want to kill it and replace it with Fate/ Grand Order 2, despite the amount of cash it makes. It is just very dated at this point, and it -still- gives modern phones trouble when it gets ambitious.The fact that they got this boss to function in it is incredible, honestly.
>>729475604You lack a fundamental understanding of phones. They will never be real gaming devices so long as they lack the ability to manage heat beyond crippling their own performance.
>>729475684Orange hair girl is just the female MC for faggots that choose to play as a girl.
Good thing I never read the story, just keep pressing skip.
>>729475723>The fact that they got this boss to function in it is incredible, honestly.I still have nightmares about ORT's flying saucer form. That shit was like 5FPS.
>>729475867no, you're the one that doesn't get it, snapdragon chipsets are better than what is in the switch 2.The new snapdragon released recently is 50% faster than the previous one, yes a whole 50%.the older one isn't even that old either.
live long and prosper, shonen
I WANT TO PLAY THE FINAL BATTLE AGAIN!!!!!!!
Any unironic gigaweebs browsing /v/ right now:Does anyone else feel like japanese writing is... extremely fucking bad?I don't personally know what ticks me off so fucking bad whether it's the extremely wish fulfillment fantasy self insert story, or maybe the overreliance on "twists" and magic systems that are free to change and explain away with their own in-universe logic whenever the story dictates...But it just ticks me the wrong way.I always feel like it's a slightly better marvelslop with a bit more effort. Like the fast food of stories, that's all show and aesthetic but zero actual meaningful content.
>>729473594I think it exists, but it's probably the bad ending, where the game calls you a pussy for not just killing it, and insisting on playing this slop.Then it continues into Part 3, where Guda failed to die a hero, and so they live long enough to become Beast V, the Beast of Escapism.
>>729469968If I remember correctly, manga Shinji went through ludicrous hardship like Asuka being mindbroken and permanently merged with her eva.A normal life is a blessing for him.
>>729463024I learned years ago that Jap writer in general are only good for world making, anything else is trash, especialy endings.>>729463823I just fap to Wu zetian
Imagine some random dude suddenly starts telling you cool story about how he remembers Guda from Cosmos in the Lostbelt who killed some Beast AI n shiet. But he can't tell you details because he remembers only 5 minutes. Classic terminal case of chuu2byo. Avoid such weirdos at all coast.
>>729474471I dropped this garbage like 5 years ago, it's funny us laughing at you ruffles your cuck feathers though.
What's with this hacks acting like saying "Escapism bad" is profound meanwhile building their entire business on escapism?
>>729476128basedsounds sexy, like rei getting dicked by the tentacle angel
>>729476128he doesn't get his rei fu though...
>>729476046>cost 165 out of infinityAt least you're making use out of it, I guess.This was my final squad, first tried it without trouble and with no deaths (well, I had to command spell Andersen to full health one time).
>>729476001The basic bitch switch gets better performance than phones do despite having weaker hardware. Do you know why? Because even the fucking switch doesn't cook itself despite being a piece of shit otherwise. Phones are tiny ass closed boxes with zero air flow. The only phones that are capable of remotely good performance are gayming phones with fans and shit. There is a reason 99% of phone games use simply shitty graphics. Phones cannot handle much more.
>>729476224no refunds, paypiggies
>>729459508Literal ludokino, unironically.
>>729476059No. The average quality of writing in Japanese is much much better than english because the average Japanese speaker is much more intelligent and well educated than the average English speaker and has better command of the language. Go read some random best selling English book on amazon and observe how poor the word choices and sentence construction are, and then go do the same for Japanese.
>>729476272lmao the switch 2 can't even run skyrim, while modern phones can run fallout 4 high settings 120fps.you really are behind times.
>>729476059Most writing is bad. Doesn't matter the medium or where it originates from.

>>729476356Yes, for a few minutes before it starts to cook itself. It doesn't matter how powerful a chip is if it can't regulate heat.

>>729476458Yes. Learn how phones actually work. Or physics for that matter.
>>729476325My sea cucumber-shaped brain couldn't possible stand against the whale that is japanese writing. Truly, it can't be helped, like a lowly shrimp trying to fend off an Emperor Crab, it's sure to lose instantly. It's not something that is achievable, nay, it's something one can't even begin to imagine.
>>729476249I want to fight again because they made the fight not work with Bazett, she just doesn't get the counter counts. Sometimes the enemy uses skills on you and it doesn't activate her NP, even when it does attack you with NP, she doesn't fight back So I had to fight slowly and I even forgot that I had 50% charge instead of her bond CEI want to experience again with other teams of grands.
>>729476059Writing is fucking hard, man.

>>729475684Yes, by me.
>>729476931No you don't get it, there's plenty of bad books out there, this must mean that the medium fucking sucks and is nowhere near my favorite gambling VN!
>>729476931I've read most of these.I think Kinoko Nasu is a pretty good writer, Anon. You should watch Kara no Kyoukai if you're not going to interact with any of his other work. It's not actually a good adaptation of his books, but it's not like you're going to be able to tell.
>>729476931As someone who reads books a lot. Most of them are fucking trash that (like many VNs) are only held up as good because most people won't actually read them.
>>729476931I had to reread I,Jedi because how shit HSR's 3.8 was and how it exposed Shaoji as being the Dave Filloni of Honkai.

>>729477781Back when it got it's fame, you could not type for hours and have other people read it in Japan in hours if they so chose. You had to draft, edit, publish, and distribute.

>>729478520The japanese mind IS "roll over and be a good boy" before WW2
>>729479114I think you're right, I rewatchrd the LOTR recently and I think the score for it definitely plays a part in why it's so iconic
>>729458194what a nortubel tier ending
>>729477132>I think Kinoko Nasu is a pretty good writer,
Early Lostbelt killed all interest me and my friends had in Fate, so I'm fine it's over.That said, for how long they dragged out the Lostbelt arc, they could've tried to do a better ending than the Rebuild movies.
I think there is a charm of the mundane ending like "I just want to live a normal life" my problems comes with discarding everything we have done to reach that peace. No powers, no wives, no memories, 0 status. Hell mc doesn't even mature, he goes back to being a normal teenager with no experience like nothing happened. That my problem.
Why would they end the series? Doesn't it still bring millions of dollars every month? It doesn't sound like something any gacha company would do.
>>729479531Who needs a wife that's a literal goddess when you can wage for 12 hours a day
>>729478524Video game stories in themselves are fucking ass and I'm convinced people playing games "for the story" are the biggest tourists imaginable, games are good because of gameplay, my favorite games are darkest dungeon and FTL just because of their gameplay loop.In that regard, book stories are better but the stories from books you need to read at school aren't good enough to make you fall in love with reading books I'd say.My analogy would be, if school required you to play OOT at 10 years old, you'd easily fall in love with video games but reading the odyssey, moby dick, madame bovary and Robinson Crusoe at 11 gave me fuck all interest in reading books despite how good I found them to be.
>>729479612>You MUST keep ze thing going until it no longer makes money. You cannot have ze artistic integrity
>>729458381I hate fate in its entirety but I still love this image so much lmao
>>729479723>You cannot have ze artistic integrityAny artistic integrity was lost when they took 7 years to write a 2nd act.
>>729479446I mean it. I have academic education in literature, I can shit on people's writing all day. But on this site, as you watch people insist on playing this slop over that slop, and you have to learn to sort the wheat from the chaff? Yeah, I'd say Nasu is probably Japan's best popular culture writer. Who else are you going to bring up, Nisio? Kizumonogatari is a rip of Tsukihime, an makes fun of itself over it.OC3 is by far the worst thing he has written, ever. But I am pretty elated that he delivered on the ending.
>>729479795how much is he going to fuck up red garden since he just replaced ciel's route with a just as broken one?
I stopped playing after LB6, so the ending is (me) mating pressing Habetrot after saving the universe.
>>729479795>Who else are you going to bring upMy MOTHERFUCKING LITERARY SMITH the Butcher of course.
>>729479795Whoever wrote demonbane. That guy.
>>729464150First of all I know this is all speculationButAny ending that just resets everything to the status quo is dogshit.Not only is it unrealistic (even 5 years is enough to completely change a town, with nothing but economics at work) it also goes against good storytelling. Its a lazy uninspiring trashfire.Even a sad ending is better than a "and then nothing changeat all"
>>729480014It's not to the status quo though. The status quo would have been if the ending was guda joining chaldea again or something. Going and being a normal dude is something completely different from his life so far.
>>729480014They were literally fighting to restore the world that was destroyed by Goetia and CHALDEAS>status quoWas the goal and observable from the beginning.
>>729479904Well, OG Tsukihime has minimalism going for it as a massive advantage, it works together with its themes very well. With more money, it's pretty much inevitable that the subtlety of the far side will be lost. There are already clearly going to be DAAs in the far side and whatnot, so instead of being psychological horror, the scale of every conflict will be out of whack, and it will lean to shounenshit.Ideally, Nasu would constrain all that stuff to Sacchin's route, and leave Hisui's route basically untouched as just Shiki laying in bad for a week tripping balls. No matter how many reality marbles, explosions, and moon drops there will be, his handling of Kohaku's character is going to determine pretty much everything about how the game is received.
So do you think we'll get anything on New Years or is it actually just over
>>729479723>artistic integrityI don't believe that a gacha company can have any artistic integrity, that's why I'm asking. They must be planning to release FGO2, there's no other explanation.
>>729480237To be entirely fair, far side's "psychological horror" is overrated as fuck.
>>729476931What if Nasu read one of these books and get inspiration for FGO sequel...
>>729479979I actually hold Gen in pretty high regard. He's a guy who wants to write one thing, and he is pretty good at writing it. He isn't trying to be the best writer ever, just a good writer of pulp. I can respect that. I can also respect that each new project he works at takes him slightly out of his comfort zone by combining his edgy melodramas with something new.
>>729480271It's a coin toss between they secretly plan a third arc because the rule of 3 routes.Or more likely they finally dropped the game because it's a decade old and the franchise hasn't really moved onto anything as successful since the days 2010's fate
>>729464710Yeah it's always funny to me idiots genuinely think One Piece is "building" towards anything whatsoever. The one thing it's building is money in Oda's bank account and that's it.
Nasu used to be good but he's so washed now. Man hasn't put out anything good since FHA. It makes me depressed.
>>729480386>He's a guy who wants to write one thing, and he is pretty good at writing it.He hasn't been "the edgy guy" for a long time now. He has very successfully diversified his repertoire.
>>729472290BA already ended.We're in the maybe sequel that may get serious again at some point if it doesn't EoS.
so how long until they reveal the shitty 3d action fight genshin clo--I mean FGO2?
Nips are mostly crying and thanking Nasu. Some even state that will spend a lot of money next banners as thanks even if the game shutdown....
So why do nips like the Salaryman ending so much? Even that shitty slime isekai did it.
>>729480583Most characters that appear in Thunderbolt Fantasy still die a gruesome death at some point, but I guess that's just xia for you.
>>729480678>Even that shitty slime isekai did it.wait is that true ending of the slime anime?
>>729480678Evangellion mindbroke a generation of Japanese men with the message that escapism is bad, accept the reality of your life, love yourselfNow every writer wants to do it's own take on escapism bad, even Evangellion when they double downed with the rebuild movies.
>>729461041Truth
>>729480678wagecucking to pay taxes to support the aging society.
>>729480914Japs were still doing that type of ending before Eva though
>>729480678Read the fucking thread. This question has been answered like ten times.
>granblue ends its story after 11 years>immediately starts a new story with new races and popular characters side characters getting shuffled into the main group
>>729479723If you wanted to have artistic integrity, you wouldnt make a fucking gatcha game.
>>729480678have to cope with wage slavery somehow
>>729481265What's the fucking point? Grabble castrated the MC, literally.
>>729458194Every gacha player's dream is being cucked.they imagine the self-insert (female) jerking off in the corner while their waifu is making out with another waifuThey don't want to be the hero, they want to be a background character that doesn't matter, like they can be killed and it wouldn't matter, hell probably the world will become better if they hanged themselves
>>729481394What is wrong with you?
>>729481265Granblue should have never gone into that specific bit of interspecies (lack of) breeding, and I wish they would revamp it into something better. I love the designs, music and the flow of lategame raids, but everything else that comes with the game is pure cancer.
I'll remember youhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qg_i3Ra-j-0
>>729478640>Books are a terrible mediumWhich is why mastery of the written word in such a way that it gets different emotions out of you despite having no audio or images is impressive, and why literature is held in high regard.
>>729459389Japs have one of the most conformist societies in the world
>>729463871At this point one piece is going to have a reset ending
>>729481468Least mentally ill self insert fag (they are all cuckold bbc posters)
>>729458194The lostbelt arc grew so out of control that the reset ending was the only one to actually make sense. The planet got fucking deleted what were they going to do.
>>729480914Evangelion didn't do that to them. Eva itself is a symptom of the disease they have. This shit, and Eva, and any other anime where the ending is basically "okay guys, epic fun fantasy is fucking over now. Time to get a real job" is a story being told over and over, is simply because the Japs find it extremely relatable to their real life experience. Obviously. There was a time when anime looked outward for inspiration. Miyazaki liked to sperg out about this. I also believe this is when anime was at it's peak. Taking in inspiration from all over the world. Now modern anime is often inspired by "anime". How could it be anything but stagnant? Again, anime is not the perpetrator of this crime. Anime didn't do this to the Japanese. It's just a reflection of their country's collective soul.
>>729463871games and stories with self insert can't have good endings.FGO is pretty good cause it turns your self insert to a pathetic slime (exactly like the player) that has zero bearings in the world while every other characters live happily ever after. Would be perfect if at the end there's a scene of the self insert hanging themselves and suffer greatly before they perish.
>>729458194I'm so glad I quit FGO while I was ahead, although the pain of having spent money on the game is still there.
Realistically they can just go into maintenance mode and rerun events/banners and maybe make new servants for Summer, Halloween, Christmas, New Years.
>>729463871>Is there a genuine reason Japan cannot in good conscience create good endings?Mushoku Tensei had a KINO ending tho
>>729463823It was my first gacha so I rage pulled Merlin and went like 500 deep back when there was no pity. Between that and just some packs here and there it was probably around 1k. Now I basically never spend, it taught me a lesson for sure.
>>729482114No one except actual subhumans would even get to the end of this piece of shit
Nips really can't stop losing, damn
>>729482114Yes only japanese degenerates create good endings for their series
>>729476931rollin for something i hopefully haven't read
>>729479761I tried reading F/SN years ago, but I've dropped because Takashi Takeuchi's sameface is fucking unbearable
>>729480914>Evangellion mindbrokeWhy do shitposters always bring Evangellion. Is this some eceleb thing? Did you people even watch Evangelion? Escapism? Escapism from DEAD APOCALYPTIC WORLD? Or what even worst shithole from Rebuild of Evangelion? Is picrelated is your world you dream to escape? You know, its population is around 300 people. And you instantly die in red desert. And no live exist here. Actually you can emulate such experience by drinking few liters of chlorine. >b-but deep messages Bitch please. The ending of EoE has nothing to do with escapism. And despite absolute DOOM it has positive meaning and hope for the future of humans.
>>729482114>getting cucked out of getting revenge due to dementia and old age>getting cucked out of maid sex by your son>only having 3 kids when you have 3 wives>wasted your whole life being a time janny for a time traveler who groomed your niece>doom the fantasy world you were isekai'd to by forcing diversity on everyone despite the monster races being shown to be evil pieces of shit by natureIt's shit
...Will One Piece end like this?
He was a Schrodinger's Stand user all the timeBravo Hirohiko Ar... Nasu
>>729479723>Artistic integrity is when you milk the second arc for like 8 yearsYou people are actual cucks
>>729482643Poorly? Well, I think I've been left unsatisfied by more endings than the inverse, so probably.
>>729482643Probably worse
>japanese clapping as yet another series ends with the MC being a soulless drone workerbee while his teenage love gets fucked by some other guy
>>729482579Rebuild, Retard
>>729458194Holy crap does this mean nasu is going to finally give the ip to someone who can write better than him ?
>>729482925he's been trying to do that for a decade. Problem is none of the writers he's hired are anywhere near as good as he is
>>729482830Jump editors are truly one of the most evil creatures alive.
>>729482865Lmao, is this how MHA actually ended?
>>729482987Urobutcher and Ryukishi07 will save Fate...
Japanese marvel. Of course a Japanese marvel deserves an Avengers Doomsday scenario where they milk out the cast one more time after the supposed "ending"
>>729483050Yep
>>729483050yeah but it was shit on so hard they made some new season where he stops being a retarded powerless faggot and gets with her again
>>729482865There's a reason NTR Is the top porn genre In Japan. They are literally conditioned for It and then the government turns around and says "Why are you not having sex?" As If their media and society aren't telling them It's pointless.
>>729483184japan needs to embrace the reverse rape genre instead and make the men get women pregnant.
>>729482876Yes, Rebuild retard. Watch Rebuild retard. The picture is from Rebuild. Is this your world of dreams? Oh wait, you think Mari (no character fanservice bitch) winning over Rei and Asuka is actually ebin DEEP take on escapism from pure fansercvice chuu2 version of NGE? Because Shinji after all suffering now has happy life and sex (with shit girl) . And you don't? Or maybe because Gendo finally found his happiness and faced his son? OMG ESCAPISM IM GOING INSANE. Of wait Asuka is happy now to with winners only based otaku bro. Is this escapism too?
>>729483052Fate/Zero was so popular I'm surprised Urobutcher wasn't given more to do.
>>729483219>>729483184China won.
>>729464305Japanese love this kind of stuff along with human instrumentality plots
>>729478520Retarded post
>>729481265Difference is people care about FGOs ending whereas Granblues ending was a wet fart no one talked about
>>729483184And that's a good thing
>>729483337>Difference is people care about FGOs ending whereas Granblues ending was a wet fart no one talked aboutBy people you mean the ones that likes the story of the game or the ones that only played the games because they want to see more ass and tits ?
>>729483241Grow up, chud
>>729480123Are we pretending that real life status quo is the same as status quo in Fate now
>>729473289Len doesn't have a role in the Tohno mansion plot and her KT's story would only bloat Sacchin route,so no
>>729483184>Menoa from Digimon AdventureYet another shit ending for a series, she was trying to stop the wagecuck ending to the series and was the villain for It. All of their digimon die and their digivices turn to stone In the end
So other type moon protagonist have better ending than FGO protagonist?
>>729483552Name a single main protagonist in any Fate work that has a happy ending
>>729464305>Japan seems to have this weird idea that living a normal life is a happy endingNormal life is happy ending relatively to what kind of plot and setting your show has.Japan understand this because they were bombed and witnessed horrors of the war. While westerners from the US never had any struggles on their land since revolutionary war and it wasn't even bid deal.
>>729464168Lord of the Rings. Japs could never.
>>729470940ankoman is the only dude that fills a niche fetish that happens to be fate relatedfemboys fucking voluptuous women is super hot
>>729483245Urobuchi has a whole career of his ownNasu's successor needs to be someone who is devoted to Fate
>>729483552I mean only Shirou really every version of him has a far better ending. Kiritsugu dies and Sieg turns Into a dragon banished to gay baby jail.
>>729483668>All the fantastic races fuck off forever Yeah okay sure
>>729464168Gash bell
>>729483668You didn't read LotR.
>>729483713>I mean only ShirouShirou is doomed to walk the same path in 2 out of 3 main routes endings. And HF...isn't so happy at all.
>>729483613If you don't think Unlimited Blade Works Shirou didn't have a happy ending I don't know what to tell you. Unless of course he Is secretly living with guilt over Rin stopping him from trying to save Illya from Gilgamesh.
>>729458194Ntr queen mashu will cheat on fujimaru just like all the doujins
>>729483115That still seems pretty bad since she ignored him for 10 years, which the manga states that heroes have less to do these days, and she comes back once he gets a suit that allows him to play hero again. The fact that their reunion is capped off with a handshake instead of anything with some passion really fits in with how lame the whole thing is.
>>729481803I am convinced it's going to end with Luffy handing off the title of Pirate King to Buggy while he goes on more adventures because he enjoyed the journey more than the destination or something. It would also complete Buggy's arc of consistently falling upwards to success.
>>729480450People genuinely glaze Oda and will say that everything was preplanned. Like chapter 1 you have that goofy Ace getting his arm eaten by a random fish despite this guy being one of the strongest people in the series that you have to do a lot of logical leaps and post-hoc justifications for it. At the most generous, you can say he's okay at tying back random shit to make it look like it makes sense.
>>729483857Shirou is doing exactly what he's always dreamed of doing, or ends up with the girl he loves.
>>729483876>UBW Shirou>happy endingAnon...
Id like to remind everyone that mulusine cucked gudao with Percival and nasu doesn't give a shit >>729483957You mean shanks
>>729483219The funny thing Is the new generation of japanese girls ARE the dominant ones because the boys are beta cucks
>>729484010I'm fine being a cuck.
>>729483946Eh, I like Buggy because he's a sign that there's more to Wano Piece then being able to hit the hardest=how important you are.
>>729483957It's funny that you mention that scene in particular. I think the author finally managed to write himself out of that plot hole once it turns out that Shanks had a mark on his arm that compelled him to obey the king of the world and he may have let it get bitten off on purpose to lose it. Not sure why he couldn't have it cut off by any other means but I'm sure they'll think of some explanation for that too.
>>729483980There's nothing unhappy about It. He's perfectly fine with becoming part of the counter force. In life he Is happy and with Rin.
>>729483980>going full superhero but not signing up to become a jannyThat's the happy ending for him.
>>729484010man who even gives a shit when there's no end-game with your servants anyway? this was always a possibility but now it's here i gotta question who fucking cares when guda's getting with mash whether (You) like it or not, and the second you start pretending that isn't the case you might as well just pretend the shit you don't like didn't happen too
>>729478520Dude what are you talking about? "Roll over and be a good boy" is literally their entire history just to varying degrees and to themselves when their leaders need them to do something but hierarchal "Follow the guy above you it's dishonorable to disobey" has always been ingrained.
>>729484229>you might as well just pretend the shit you don't like didn't happen tooYeah
>>729483552Shiki depending on the route gets to wake Arcueid up and stay with her,become an executor alongside Ciel or spend what remains of his life with Akiha,Hisui and Kohaku
>>729484167>>729484169The VN directly tells you about him walking into hell. It's like saying Kiritsugu's life is happy ending. He will always be a janny.
Here's your part 3 opener bro
>>729484729Bro...It has one year of service left. There Is no part 3. It's over.
>>729484729I clap
>>729484423>He will always be a janny.There Is nothing wrong with being a time janny.
>fgo releases >Everyone agrees the writing sucks >Years later >Everyone jacking off Mesopotamia, lb6 and other slop >Lb7, and later Ending releases >Everyone hates it I'm glad I didn't fall for the shills and just stuck to the porn
Isn't fgo a huge cash cow? Why would they kill it?
>There Is nothing wrong with being a time janny.
>>729484923nips are retarded
>>729484760Did they actually say that, that's fucking hilarious
