Honest thoughts on the Fate series?
Illya route when
for me it's Kuro
It's been 10 years since I read Fate and I still can't decide if I love Saber or Sakura more. Fate revealed that I am a weak human who cannot make decisions
>>730978208is the gacha worth playing now that it's finishing? i know the ending was mega retarded but i wanna go for it for the raita girls. i don't plan to spend money on it tho. will it get pulled down, or are they planning to offer an offline version? it would feel weird if they just pull it like that.
lmao
>No way, he wants to....SAVE PEOPLE? This guy is insane, he's crazy. He's like a machine, how could he want to do that? The depth, the nuance of this characterization...FSN sucks.
>>730978208>172cmi'm taller than herare nips dwarves or something how is 172cm tall
>>730978426nasu is just a retard
>>730978426>are nips dwarves or somethingYes
>>730978208>Fate>series
>>730978426Women above 170cm have no human rights.
>>730978426172 cm for a girl is freakishly tall. Human zoo tier shit.
>>730978208should've ended after HA
Is it true I can make bitches fall in love with me by autisticly failing to jump over a bar for hours?
>>730978393>Reddit;GateKill yourself
>>730978570oh it's freaky alright
>>730978426The average japanese woman is like almost an entire head shorter than her even at 172 cm.
>>730978393that's right. FSN > faggotry;gate
>>730978208Why can't Takeuchi draw asses?
>>730978393>media literacy
>>730978393>>730978660>>730978719This supposedly rivalry between fandoms seems incredibly artificial and forced.
>>730978757It's literally just one guy.
>>730978757Steins;Gate fag(s) do be annoying sometimes
>>730978208I like it.
>>730978728He can bit chooses not tp because he hates non-Hank Hill asses
>>730978208>intentionally blatantly retarded contradictions just in the coombait aloneThanks for letting me know OP I'm outta here
>wins
>>730978393This is kinda how I feel about Kotomine (in reverse). He's built up to be this foil, anti-Emiya, but his motivation is just "I like hurting people" even in the final battle in HF
>>730978931But look at ancient greek statues. Rider has no business having an ass that flat.
>>730978208As a whole, I like it and TM in general.The further we get away from the visual novels however, the more hit and miss the series becomes with far more misses than hits. I wouldn't even say 90% of FGO is worth readingNow go play Battle Moon Wars
>>730978208172 cm counts as tall now?
>>730978426i once heard a chinese classmate tell about what happens when she goes to see her grandma>i get out of the car and she doesn't even say hi to me, just "oh, poor caiseen. she too tall. she never marry. no husband."the girl was probably pretty close to 172 cm, so to me, the writing seems pretty spot on.
>>730979295kill yourself reference slop eating tranny faggot
>>730978278A drawing of what?
>>730978393The problem isn't that he wants to save people, it's that he's has no higher priority, and Emiya Alter is what happens when he follows that path to its end, not just sacrificing his happiness but sacrificing his humanity, and all to ultimately become an unwitting tool of evil because he is so single-minded.Fate is about Emiya developing from a would-be-hero into a human, and the entire Fate series is always stressing the superiority of humans over heroes. Even beyond the masters being the ones who are supposed to be in control of their hero servants, the primary (and generally unspoken rule, since it often goes completely unsaid in many of the Fate entries) is that the dead should not be the ones who decide the future. Most of Fate is essentially the Living fighting for control over their own destinies, and the wisest servants have to even deliberately avoid dominating their masters/the organizations they work for/etc. because they understand the limitations of becoming overly reliant on heroes and how it would lead to a downward spiral for humanity.What makes Fate interesting is that most stories just follow the zero-becoming-a-hero, and would end with "You're a hero, congrats, goal accomplished!" Fate, on the other hand, presents the greatest heroes in all of history, and says "These were failures. We still have to strive to be better."
>>730978920Good.
>>730978208what games are worth playing?
>>730979295I need to beat Fantasy Maiden Wars first.
>>730979568>game>worth playing
>>730979108He was born wrong, just like Emiya.
>>730979547of Kuro duh. there is also Wu Zetian I guess.
>>730978208>those doujins that made Medusa into an anal slutThose make me so weak man
>>730978208it's shit and not videogames and i'll never understand why it's a "thing" among an extremely loud extremely vocal extreme minority of faggots other than the fact that they are retarded faggotsliterally the only good thing to come out of, and the only actual game to come out of, nasu's retarded nigger retardation is melty blood react pre-finaltuned niggerpatch
>>730979551Sorry bro but I think the Knights Hospitaller were pretty worthy heroes in my book.
>>730979108>but his motivation is just "I like hurting people"Based
>>730980015I could never get into anything past Hollow Ataraxia myself, save for maybe Unlimited Codes.People who like post-Hollow Ataraxia Fate and people who like SN and HA love a very different franchise for very different reasons.
>>730978208FUAAAAARK! THE FREAKISHLY HUGE HEIGHT OF 5'6!
>>730979551>King Arthur>as a woman>failureYou might be on to something.
>>730980156Fuark...do people even know who Zyzz is anymore?
>>730978719Kys fag gay night fag
>>730979389In Japan, for women? Yes.
>>730980395Seeing as that girl is actually an ancient greek...
Maybe I'm confusing her with someone else but I think the top of her head reaches past the upper edge of the screen in the VN, as a diegetic joke.
>>730980317Guess being a Dutch giant has skewed my perspective somewhat.
>>730980487The best part is her being greek, she shouldn't even care, she's average height by her own cultures standards.
>>730980636Not that anon but people used to be a lot shorter before the twentieth century. Though perhaps not the upper classes who were well fed.
Stay night >>bladeworks>>>>>heavens feelAll the rest of the fateverse series are dogshit
>>730980696Being a goddess, Medusa would definitely qualify as upper class. And seeing as most gods were depicted as 10 foot tall gigachads/turbostacies, she's a womanlet if anything by the standards of her peer group. Until she went full monster and was like, 10 stories tall.
>>730980757>Loli (false) is the Holy GrailWhat did Nasu mean by this
>>730979295FSN is only as good as it is because Nasu leaves all these intentional holes in storytelling that intrigue the reader and makes them wonder, only to get worse the more gets revealed in further entries.
>>730979551why does he turn black THOUGH
>>730978393>Shits;Gay fag pretending they have any media literacyEvery time.
>>730981024But the thing is, she wasn't a goddess in life. She might have been partly divine like a lot of greek royalty liked to claim back in those days but HA mostly implies that she was a real human bean.
>>730981024FGO made it even sillier by adding another Greek woman who's taller than Medusa and doesn't even mention it onceLet's be honest, we all know by "too tall", she really means "not loli enough"
>>730981087Abuse of his magic circuits. You know how IRL electric wires get really fucking hot when overloaded? That's basically what happened to him as Archer.
>>730978208Initial stuff was alright, but around the time of the Extra series Type-Moon went and fully embraced high fantasy which sorta lost a lot of the charm the initial two VN's had.On the flip side I end up having mixed feelings about shit like FGO because while it's now introduced over 300 servants that Type Moon could try and do interesting shit with, I just know a lot of them aren't really gonna get anything meaningful long-term and sorta feels like a waste of a character that might've been cool if they were first introduced in a novella or something. I'd still raw dog Queen of Sheba, Nito Alter and Scheherazade tho. So I can thank FGO for that.
best part of zero if not for how zesty his master was
>>730981087In universe reason? Shirou's magic is slowly cooking him from the inside out. Out of universe reason? Blacksmith tan symbolism and because it looks cool. Why is Emiya alter actually just black? Detroit.
>>730978208>172cmBitch I have 20 cm on you, shut up and kiss me
>>730978563literally thiswalk up to one and put a collar and leash on a tall woman and they have to legally follow you
>>730981162And King Arthur wasn't a teenage girl, and Zeus wasn't an alien star ship, but in FATE they are.
>>730981087Several reasons.1. Archer was darker skinned than Emiya to try and make it less likely people would immediately recognize they were the same character. Abusing augmentation magic became the in-universe explanation.2. A major influence on Emiya's appearance is Kintsugi, the art or repairing pottery with gold, and the artist thought that a much darker skin color would work better to contrast the gold.3. When Nasu pitched what the character should look like to Shounen Sasaki, the artist, he said that he should look like if Emiya spent his life in prison. And, the Japanese are unapologetically racist.
Thoughts on tall women being just slightly taller than japanese teenager?
>>730981549That and Zerkerlot styling in Jobgamesh.
I love my king! Long live Artoria!
>>730981705>154cm My Manlet King..
>>730981549>Saber being unable to understand both her direct subordinates and her subjects while also being autistically idealistic during the kings' meet n greet>her rabid fans still think the Banquet of Kings was unfair and Saber's actually a better leader than Gilgamesh or Alexander
Are you taller than the male servants, /v/?>Lancer6'0">Archer6'1">Golden Boy6'0">Kojiro5'9">Basaka8'3">Hassan7'1"
God this supreme gentleman was annoying, I was at least hoping he'd have some connection to Lancer given the color similarities like Rin/Archer and Sakura/Rider, but he's just an whiny rapist bitch
>>730981873>caring about zero
>>730981954To be fair, Sakura canonically tempted him
>>730981954I like to imagine him as an Araragi who wandered into a Bad EndNothing to do with his voice actor, of course.
>172cmYeah I just googled this and it's literally 5'6 in american units. Is this supposed to be tall?
>>730981895yesyesyesyesno lolno
>>730981157Okabe do be a better MC than Shirou thoughever.
the loli's are hot, the games and story are a total shitshow not worth the time
>>730981873The amount of people who hate Zero because it "made Saber retarded" never played the Visual Novel and just masturbated to pics of her on Danbooru. It's the only explanation.
>>730978426>>730979413Would you seriously date a woman who's taller than you?
>>730982052Freakishly tall by nip standards. Have you never seen asians?
>>730982141If she's down too, then of course, like, what are you, a homosexual?
>>730978208Where's her ass?
>>730982141172 cm is not taller than me, but yes, i would. i find it strange that there are men who wouldn't.
>>730982141I'd just be happy to make eye contactt.6'3"
>>730981873she objectively is though lmaoshe only didn't understand her subjects because they wanted her to be happy and she wanted to do everything she could for them instead. if her subjects wanted anything that was actually normal, she would have done it and understood it perfectly fine. they didn't, they wanted her happiness.meanwhile the other kings did not give a shit what their subjects wanted, they were selfish pieces of shit who are only kings through battlefield victory aloneyou can always tell who's retarded because they think the banquet of kings made saber look bad, when in reality all it did was make the other two look bad and they both know they could absolutely never live up to saber in her selflessness and caring for her people
>>730982141Women taller than me would be rare. So I'm down to climb a mountain if I see one.
>>730982115Not even close. And Archer is a better character than literally everyone in S;G put together.
>>730982139It's like people forget that Saber can retain her memories between summons due to the deal she made and that it's a prequel
>>730982141Yes taller women is my fetish but God cursed me to be a 6'3" Ent. I've only ever met two and surprisingly both were at my job as customers.
>>730981873It is unfair, because Gil and Isk are both more wrong than Saber. Saber actually has ideals, while they just have hypocrisy used to justify their selfishness, and while Saber failed in life, her continued legend eventually results in her being proven right in the end.
This idea that the ideal woman is petite has to be the one of the worst aesthetic memes to ever get traction in human history. Women should be tall and thick in all the right places, that's what peak feminine performance looks like.
Tsukihime Remake part 2.. Any day now. Tsukihime remake part 1 steam release.. Any year now..
>>730982261Based
>>730980156Human women must look like monster girls to the average jap.
>>730978426Average male height in Japan in the 00s was 170 to 172 depending on which year you're actually looking at. She's was basically height mogging half the male population. You also need to keep in mind that she's supposed to be front ancient Greece. Ancient niggas are short and Greeks are short, when you add those 2 together you'll understand why she had a height complex.
>>730982141Why would you not want to return proper height in your bloodline?
>>730982261Truthnuke but it's not much of a competition when the best s;g has is le tsundere and le pervy hacker cliches again.
>Saber is 154cmWhat a womanlet lmao
>>730982141We are not women, retard. We don't give a shit about height.
>>730982481Please understand. Merlin had to convert some inches when he had to give her a dick.
>>730982481cursed to stay at a young age due to the sword in the stone, not her fault, she'd be a giga stacy normally
>>730978208slop and the worst of the TM series
>>730982224>the other kings did not give a shit what their subjects wanted, they were selfish pieces of shitTurns out that's the leader people want and you got what you voted for.
>>730982115I'm sorry but this is just completely wrong. okabe doesn't have even half the depth of shirou and I read both visual novels
>>730982481Imagine
>>730982509>We are not womenSpeak for yourself.
>>730982261*slow claps*
>>730982726You know the rules.
>>730982141what is the downside
>>730978208I remember seeing some screenshot about her petrifying gaze being super OP actually outside of the context of the 5th HGW. Like supposedly more than half of all known servants would get turned to stone without any saving throws.
>>730982726tits or GTFO
>>730982726There are no women here. Only "women".
>>730982726post feet
>>730982867You
>>730980701Even Zero?
>>730982141I would, if I were attracted to her. I'm 184cm though and the only girl genuinely (by that I mean without using super high heels) taller than me that I can remember was anorexic. I need some thigh meat and titties.
>>730978426Nips think 180cm is gigachad giant height. It's funnier as an American because you never know what those silly measurements mean, then you look it up and learn the guy towering over everyone is 5'10 lmao
>>730978208It's great until maybe around Apocrypha or so. Still okay after that point though
The VN establishes that magi can channel mana into their muscles to give themselves inhuman strength and speed. Bazett's entire fighting style revolves around this. So when Rin gets tied to a chair during the end of UBW, why didn't she just...hulk out?
>>730978757there is no rivalrythey're not even the same genreit's just 4chins gayshit
>>730982892It also doesn't work like it does in most media depictions. You don't need to meet her gaze, she just needs LOS to you. If she can see you, you're fucked.
>>730978208I fucking love it, I love it to my core. I adore mythology, I adore how Fate sings to mythology. I won't pretend it's a perfect experience and I won't defend its honor, but I treasure it deeply and enjoy reading the stories of Masters and Servants very, very much.
>>730983253It's just people being faggots because SG and Fate are two of the most popular visual novel series.
>>730983268Yeah, Fate does it justice in that sense. Meeting her gaze does result in an instant kill, though, I think. While not looking at her gives you at least 2-3 steps of movement before you petrify depending on your agility.
>>730982950whats the appeal to scat?
>>730982224Gilgamesh is honestly the best king though.
>>730982984i would simply not make that face
>>730982141I only date women taller than me.t. 5'2" manlet
>>730978570Where the fuck do you live, Oompa Loompaland? I know thirdies are malnourished and tiny but damn
>>730979551>he said as 99% of the shit humanity uses to create a new future for themselves comes from supernatural>in Fate route Saber and Shirou won because they used Excalibur (not forged by humans) and Avalon (also not forged by humans)>in UBW Shirou beat Gil by copying shit that weren't created by humans, and also by having an artifact that wasn't created by humans>in HF Shirou won by using a non-human arm, and used a weapon that wasn't created by a human (just google Medea's bloodline)It's utterly disgusting when mankind claims everything, then pretend that's them mankind doing it by themselves.You can be sure that everyone could name Herc's father, but fail to name his human mother, and further try to attribute any of his labors or great deeds to his human side and not his divine side.
>>730982892Petrifying Gaze is so pathetic that the only thing worse would be Gae Bolg, the causality-defying instant kill that Nasu has literally only allowed to work once but it was self-inflicted against Cu Chulainn. Nasu is such a fucking hack holy shit
>>730978208So did Shinji fuck her?
>>730979551The actual problem is that he's a retard.He went to the middle east like a mmo character and somehow assumed if he did enough fetch quests he would improve anything. Obviously he got shot in the head by the CIA or the taliban within a few years.
>>730983268That's not right. You need to "look at her". The curse is not what she looks at. You do not need to meet her eyes, you do not even to literally lay eyes upon her, but direct your perception towards her. A bad end in F/SN is Shirou perceiving her in his mind's eye and turning to stone instantly.
>>730983375you, i like you
>>730983842duh
>>730983842Obviously.As would you, if you were her master.
>>730982224>she only didn't understand her subjects because they wanted her to be happyThey didn't.The entire Britbongnia was exploding due to the Age of Man taking over and they had no food to eat while being invaded by the Anglos.Shirou literally said that in his dream part in Fate route, that they wanted a perfect king, and as long as the king 'functioned' as a king, they couldn't care about anything else.Even Merlin said that it's fine for Uther to have a daughter instead of a son and never asked him to sire another one.Except they did and collectively chimp out when their king was a woman so you can see their hypocrisy.
>>730983890Not that anon, but does that bad end actually happen? That sounds too cool for me to forget happening. Imagine turning to stone because you thought about someone lmao what the fuck is the justification for it to work like that
>>730983991Dead End 29, Stone Coffin.
>>730983991nasu is...fucking retarded
>>730983956>>730983976Can she get preggers?
>>730984029Huh, does that happen in the hallway encounter...Since we're on the topic of bad ends, I always shill Caster's Bites the Dust as the best one, the UBW anime should have included it as a bad dream or something. That one legit spooked me.
>>730978208
>>730984071No. Servants don't have a physical body. That's why you can't just ventilate servants with an uzi or something.
>>730984071>>730984136It is possible though to wish for a servant to be incarnated for real with the grail. That's Gilgamesh's plan in Fate.
>>730984071I don't think servants can get pregnant or impregnate.
>>730982052MacArthur was only 6 feet tall
>>730984084Which one is that again?Because I only remember the one where she turned Shirou into a mystic code, then Rin eventually came and mercy killed him, but there should two I think.
>>730978208Is 172cm supposed to be tall in Japan?Im 189cm and that's pretty average in Germany.
>>730984247It happens early on in UBW. If you ask Issei about Caster while in the student council room he'll go berserk and stab Shirou like a hundred times before killing himself too.
>>730984247>>730984334Also shoutouts to that other super sudden and rough UBW bad end where Kuzuki punches Rin so hard that it sends her head flying like a golf ball.
>>730984235This picture being printed in all the newspapers in Japan buckbroke them harder than the nukes btwYou can thank general Macarthur mogging the emperor so hard he looked like he was seconds from bursting in to tears for modern kawaii anime japan.
>>730984480nahit just explodes
>>730978208Fate fertile cunny Steins gate is safe horny hagslop
>>730983679you are retarded.Rider is huge unless you're from the netherlands
Where in Greece was Rider from?
>>730978208Incel trash for incels, of course. What else?
>>730979551This is the most raped shit I've read all day. I'm not surprised, just disgusted, that most prolific Japanese media and mentality ends in some sort of perverse humiliation ritual.
>>730984706Im dutch and yes.Rider is perfect dick sucking height.
>>730984706Why czech and croatian women so fat?
Why were oriental heroes forbidden from participating in the HGW according to the original concept? Clearly Type-Moon is not against japanwank, not even back then.
>>730978426most of her commentary about height is lack of confidence because the beauty standard of her time, represented by her sisters, was small girls with little chests in the Fate narrative. She was bullied for being too hot.
>>730978381>8 pages of text about Shiro's clear heart palpitation problems.
>>730984916Same reason brits are the way they are. The hot ones wound up in Scandinavia. In this case they wound up in Italy or Germany instead.
>>730978208I love tall fit women. And then make them melt in my hands. It's not too late for you bros...do not give in to despair.
lots of /v/ posters who wish they were atleast 172cm
>>730985202No way, right? Like I'm 190cm. There's no way you guys are that small.
>>730978208SEX WITH RIDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>730985137>It's not too late for you bros...do not give in to despair.It is too late for me...I have given in to despair.
>>730985247I wish I was 172cm so I could fit in places rather than have my knees always be in the way
>>730978208The VNs are amazing. Some of the other stuff is nice but mostly mid. Fuck the gacha. Saber best king, best girl.
>>730983991>what the fuck is the justification for it to work like thatThe ancient greeks were EXTREMELY misogynistic. Medusa being raped by Poseidon was regarded as Medusa's fault for being so pretty. And so Athena cursed that same beauty to make it turn those who see it to stone.
>>730984235Why are his lips so puffy?
>>730986301Medusa being raped by Poseidon was a later addition to her legend added by Ovid, a Roman. The original Greek myth was surprisingly rape free.
>>730978208How do I get a tall gf if I'm 5'4??
>>730978208IDK, never read it.I was about to read it, but then found out Nasu retcon'd(?) (or at least moved away from) the whole "cumming inside to transfer mana"-thing, which was the main reason I got interested in the setting in the first place.
>>730987067Nasu moved away from it because transferring mana through semen is extremely inefficient. It was only ever a big thing in one route because the person who got creampied has a magical reactor inside of her that turns a little mana into a lot if I recall.
>>730978208>172 cm>tall?
>>730987024become rich
>>730982141ive only dated women taller than me. i seem to draw them. whoever told me height matters is a retard since im 5'4''.
>>730987628That's quite tall for a Japanese woman, they obviously aren't going to be using the standards of retarded gaijin
>>730984071>>730984136pretty sure there was a tier list about most fertile servants
>>730982141height is a sign of nobility, my children will be giants
>>730981746Sauce? Reverse image search isn't giving me anything.
>>730982141I married one.
>>730984071>repeatedly cum inside a servant>what? no i cant get pregnant its just a mana transfer>egg surrounded by semen and one gets in>HIT>pregnant servant not sure whats going on but shes the happiest shes ever been in centuries
>>730988591Try the vg archives
>>730981746That’s a man
>>730988935How far back we talking?
>>7309892232023-2024
>>730978208>friend is super into this series and has argued about it for a decade or more>we started hanging out irl and stopped vidya entirely>got him dating, got him friends, got him in shape, took a ton of effort but pulled him out of neetdom>he swears this game is good and visual novels are equal to the western canon.>go in assuming you needed to play these while very young similar to alot of the western canon being better as a teenager.>its dogshit>drink heavily to turn off large chunks of my brain, he does as well>its even worse>the entire novel is like the most boring day dream on earth. Even shocking scenes are so lame you wonder if the author has ever used the internet for anything besides masturbation.>bring a Japanese friend over to see if he likes it>he turns it off and says only virgins play this sort of thing in japanhelp me out /v/ am i right in thinking you needed to be about 13 and sorta outcasted to like this? Or is it just the translation being horrible? It never gets good and I have read moby dick which is so boring for 90% of it you can use it to powernap in a sleep deprived emergency.
>>730989291Hot damn, yeah I'm not gonna dig that for for it. Thanks for the pointer though. If I'm ever feeling like going on a hunt I'll dive in there, but not right now.
>>730989223It's clearly a man. He blocks out his face and posts tease pics in one of the worst boards of the site.
>>730989295kill yourself normalfag

>>730989379Given Japan’s birthrates, both of those things can be true.

>>730978426>are nips dwarves or somethinggod I fucking wish they wereitt me when I was 166 cm in Tokyo
>>730989295Okay, approaching this post in good faith: first, Nasu's prose is weird, archaic, and dry, that's not just the translation, it's how he writes. TakaJun's translation was even more stilted because TakaJun did not speak english very well. The modern aniplex translation is rather better so long as you can stand "Altria".Second, to appreciate Fate beyond the light show and shounen action you need a solid grounding of mythology and mysticism. If you didn't know who Cuchulainn and Gae Bolg was before going in, you won't have the context that Gae Bolg the noble phantasm is a rendition of something from myth, and how that's supposed to be nifty. It just comes off as hot air if it's Nasu's stuff. The interpretation is part of the experience.Finally, your complaint of "it's dogshit" is a really insipid analysis. Everything you like is shit too, why be particularly hard on this shit? Everything humans make is awful.
>>730989573tokyo is where the well fed middle and upper class live. maybe go to the malnourished countryside for people your size.
>>730989594>Everything humans make is awful.I would get rid of this thing that's in you. Rest of the post is solid, thank you for your answer.
Thread moving so fast no one will notice that I WANT FATE/EXTRA RECORD TO COME OUT RIGHT FUCKING NOW AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Being under 6ft in the modern age is abit odd. The few short men I have met are either elderly 40 year olds or just people who starved themselves to be short.
>>730978393>Steins;Gate faggot>Is unbelievably retardedWas it really that hard to read the VN?
>>730978208Sex with lancer.
>>730989936you mean the blue haired man with the spear right?
>>730989673Deal with it anon, what you like is shit too.
>>730989894Most S;G secondaries just watched the anime and didn't even read their own vn. Sometimes I wonder if they can read at all.
>>730978208Bretty good
>>730978208All what i did with fate series was regular masturbation sessions to Ishtar's feet
>>730990006Well yeah.
>>730980636factually incorrect. living in the balkans greeks are a tall race of people(avg male height is 180cm, making them taller than american whites and brits), and in the ancient greece it was around 173cm. ancient people were surprisingly tall, even roman italians were 165∼168cm. it is only after the early modern times thaat people became midgetified, even dutch men being 165cm and spaniards and italians 160∼161cm(early 19th century)

medbros...
>>730991326Now compare by weight
>>730991212I don't even want to associate S;G with nitroplus because for me nitro has made better stuff than that. S;G fags will keep dick measuring with their vndb and MAL scores though.
>>730991197Improvements to health over time. Industrial scale availability of nutrition.The most modern contrast between peoples that should be genetically similar would be the Koreas I imagine. Just not sure how easy it is to actually get good data out of North Korea.Apparently Kim is 5'7 so if you ever have photos of him next to others you can get a rough idea by using him as a measuring stick.Not sure what that means for Japan though, think their sumo wrestlers and such are tall. And Shohei Ohtani, so they should have the genetic capability of being taller, maybe they just like to eat a lot less.
>>730978208wasnt she self conscious about being too short as a kid and now its the opposite?
>>730991854funnily enough american GI's used to heightMOG everyone during WWII including yuros. which suggests europe was borderline third world 70 years ago where people didn't have enough nutrition when you think about itnow people eat well even in shitholes like brazil and mexico

>>730992341yeah no shit they suffered from malnutrition, they were in the middle of a fucking war
>>730992341There was the great depression just before the war, and the war before that. Europe would have been turbofucked for a good bit. America while also economically affected, should have been fine as far as actually having unaffected farms went, I think.History is interesting, but strange.
>>730987758its tall for a woman anywhere. even the tallest countries in the world its still slightly above average, and Rider is a BC era greek chick. she's got a full 12 cm on the average ancient greek.
>>730992447Anon, people in the middle of a war aren't suffering reduced height from undernourishment from that very war. Unless it's one of those retarded 30-100 year long European shithole wars where you kill eachother over something retarded, like which master owns which slaves/serfs.
>>730992478not really
>>730982141oh boy would I
>>730992512if you want to look at the previous decades WW1 had eradicated a good chunk of the population as well.

>>730989594>Bleach is actually really good and deep, you just need to read 10,000 pages of hinduism to appreciate it: the visual novelThis ain't it
I got interested in reading FSN and HA through playing FGO part 1 to completely losing interest in the franchise near part 2's ending, the ending just convinced me to drop it for good
>>730994103Contrarianism. Go carry your crusade wherever you want anon, but pokemon is just a game. It didn't rape your mother.
>>730994153Is Bleach a better experience for thoroughly hindu mythology? Calling it good as an absolute as a trap, I am only asking for "a better experience". If it is, then "it is it", "chief".
Hot take: I actually like the skinny, twiglike proportions the fate girls have. I think its a tragedy most art makes them thicker.
>>730992512>what is wwiAre you mentally deficient, do you even know what "WWII" stands for?
>>730994425They're mostly good, but Takeuchi drawing Sakura like a C-cup at most despite the game repeatedly going on about her having huge breasts was just dumb.
>>730994537You know what? That is legit a great point. She does look "right" when drawn with bigger boobs.
>>730992692That's a man.
>>730994537There's a scene with Artoria lamenting her muscular body but Takeuchi didn't draw her with a hint of muscle anywhere.Takeuchi won't draw big breasts, ass or muscle
>>730984706no way this shit is real, it has to count in some long living women dwarves from 1900women shorter than 170 are insanely rare nowadays in my country and it isn't even on this image
>>730994887Thats different though. Shirou says she sees herself as completely different than she is. She isn't actually muscular, she just thinks she is.
>>730987750tall women are zoo tierno one goes specifically for them except manlets
>>730982141Don't see how that's relevant when no one here is shorter than 172 cm tall since you have to be 18+ to use this website and only little kids are that short.
>>730994189>the franchise is stellar because *checks notes* it did not force itself sexually on your mother...And other franchises...did?
>>730994537Those are legit huge for irl boobs though. You've been mindbroken by gacha designs with hyper tits.
>>730995270Yes.I'm sorry you had to learn this way, but your mother was raped by Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing.
>>730995332That's an edit.
>>730995409Ok yeah half of her just disappeared
>>730978208Slop.
>>730978426My wife is 176cm and I am 188
>>730994537You have no idea what C cups look like nigga.
It’s still the best visual novel, and the best story in video games. The concept is so good, that it’s a legitimate forever story.
>>730995605not even top 5
>wanting Medusa>when Medea was also an OG fate girlShe is never given proper exposure in the first game but she is the best of the OG fate girls by a mile.
>>730995548See >>730995409
>>730995605It’s the peak. This is after 40 years of fucking games. There’s no better hero story, no better iterative use of the medium (routes and game overs), no better concept. The best video game story.
My sister is 180cm, and that's considered an average height for women where I live.

>>730986194Aren't the VNs censored on Steam?
>>730978208>172cm>Tall
>>730983375Are... are you retarded? The series absolutely shits on Western mythologies, turning every female character into some anime slut craving for Asian microdick.
>>730978208>seriesWhere? There's only one Fate game from Type-Moon. Everything else is either a bonus fan-disk, or spin-offs from third-party companies.
>>730978393>his retarded ideal is shown over and over again to limit his growth: he is unable to enjoy life and he will give up his life for nothing>the game shows two possible outcomes for Shirou: either he ends up like Kiritsugu, a completely broken miserable man, or Archer, an slave that is forced to fight for all of eternity>both outcomes mean unending suffering and struggle because his ideal is ultimately childish and impossible>20+ years later retards still choose to understand this as "the game says that being good is bad"
She's taller than me.She's really tall!
>>730978208>I like him because he jumps high
>>730978208https://files.catbox.moe/jxjedr.pngfate in a nutshell drink up
>>730979794Emiya wasn't born wrong; he was just saved after he already gave up on life.
>>730996975Reductive and false, actually. More asian historical figures get genderbent than anything.
>>730997161You weren't there. You wouldn't understand.
>>730978208It makes for good doujins but it's always been marvel schlok. Double-so whenever Nasu attempts sci-fi. Takeuchi was alright for the time when Fate was novel but this dude has aboslutely deteriorated into boring template faces
>>730997071Didn't he prove to his future self that his ideal wasn't retarded in UBW? It was literally spelled out in post-epilogue scene with Archer.
>>730980701prisma iliya is the only good series after the initial deen fate
>>730982224>she only didn't understand her subjects because they wanted her to be happy and she wanted to do everything she could for them insteadYes, that's the whole point and its shown in FSN. The people of the kingdom had many issues yet Saber did nothing except go to war and come back home victorious. From her subject's point of view the king was a warmonger who only cared about going to war and killing enemies. It doesn't matter that in reality she was doing it all for her subjects because she never, ever interacted with them or showed any semblance of being human.>meanwhile the other kings did not give a shit what their subjects wanted, they were selfish pieces of shit who are only kings through battlefield victory aloneNo. Gilgamesh's story starts with his subjects asking the gods to get rid of Gilgamesh because he's too much of an asshole and ends with his subjects regarding him as the best king who ever lived once he grows up (FSN's Gilgamesh is the asshole version) while Alexander's story is about how he inspired thousands of men to follow him.Both had the kind of charisma that moved people, inspired them and united an entire nation under a ruler. Saber was a fucking a retard who pushed away everyone and her story finishes with her own knights betraying her and her country being destroyed as she prays for the Holy Grail to fix it all for her.>you can always tell who's retarded because they think the banquet of kings made saber look bad, when in reality all it did was make the other two look bad and they both know they could absolutely never live up to saber in her selflessness and caring for her peopleZero is setting up Saber for FSN, in which she ultimately understands her shortcomings as king. Zero also shows how Alexander is able to inspire others (in this case Weaver) and even gain Gilgamesh's respect.
>>730982215>>730982280I'm so jealous of you dudest.6'1"
>>730990798>artist draws ntr exclusively>but all the fate pieces is just rider cucking the other heroines while she has monkey sex with shirouConflicted faps
>>730981954He apparently helped stand up for Emiya before the story started, too bad he was such a shit guy and canonically sells EMIYA out
>>730978208>Honest thoughts on the Fate series?it gave me my waifu
>>730997356No, his ideal is retarded. Archer merely remembered why he chose his ideal over everything else.It boils down to "it's beautiful." To Archer, even a thousand years as a slave to the world is OK because his ideal is beautiful. Even then he admits that it's childish and stupid to think that way, but he finds peace with it.It's the only possible good ending for Archer by the way. He was put in a position in which he had no way out and had to keep fighting forever. The best possible ending for him was to find a way to cope with it.
>>730982339she was never right they were. she was a failure as a king both in life and in the current. and it takes her till fate to understand that using herself as a means to an end to uphold her ideal of the perfect king is to make it meaningless.Gil and iskandar are dictators their kingdom prospered and endured so long as they led them, saber couldn't even stop her own kingdom from erupting in a civil war and splintering.That's why her charisma rating is lower then both of theirs.
>>730984939Too OP thanks to home ground advantage
>>730997356No it was still retarded just beautifully idealistic like something you wish and want to strive for. The difference between UBW shirou and emiya at the end is that he has Rin to keep him grounded so that he has something besides a self-sacrificing single-minded devotion to his obsession with heroism.
>>730989295>am i right in thinking you needed to be about 13 and sorta outcasted to like this?Mostly, yeah. If you like shounen anime chances are you're gonna like FSN. But it isn't a bad thing.I put FSN on the same spot as Harry Potter: there really isn't any shame in liking it. It has inspired millions of people and it's certainly better than the garbage being peddled as literature today or wasting time on social media.The idea that every book you read must be an intellectual master piece is garbage. There is nothing wrong with a book being light entertainment.
>>730995757Wasn't there a scrapped Medea route the way there was a scrapped Ilya route?
So how the fuck Gaia can die if it's some omnibranch being that manages timelines? Wouldn't it just prune timelines where it dies instead of reverse-chronically begging big bros to euthanize humanity? How can it "die" if it still exists in other timelines?
>>730997806Loli Medea route, yes. (She somehow age-regresses to 12yo)
>>730978208Porn and Prisma Illya are the only parts of Fate I've ever engaged with.
>>730981249why the hair though?
>>730978208I think Shirou is cool and is one of the few harem protags who deserves his harem.>Muscular>Very handsome, and if redmab is anything to go by, he'll become more handsome as an adult>enjoys housework>can cook (this is big)>has a way with words>confident as fuck>big dick energy but still a nice guy
>>730998394im all these things wheres my harem?
>>730997071You’re stupid. The point of the ideal IS that it’s childlike. It is a true ideal, something to strive for against all odds. It’s like true love on a cyberpunk city. That sort of ideal.
>>730998394Lmao did they really ripoff the keyblade graveyard?
>>730978208>172 cmThat's like average height for a woman in my country
>>730978426women shouldn't be taller than 160, the ideal is 154I'm 180 btw
>>730998620Other way around. Fate predates KH2
>>730999414>falling for low effort baitshame on you
>>730993921no can do. this guy posted more risque pics on fgo threads on /soc/ in 2024. problem is he used litterbox so they're long gone. i never got the opportunity to save them
>>730998394>has a mansion all for himself>has a big cock>knows how to treat women>is strong as fuck>willing to actually die for his loved onesHe has everything. Even in school he's:>dependable>his only friends are the class pres (who is both considered handsome and dependable), Shinji (who is the most popular boy in school), Rin (the most popular girl in school)>is respected by teachers>also known as the best archer in the school>somehow he's always surrounded by beautiful foreign girls>also everyone knows Sakura is deeply in love with him and visits him every dayShirou is one of the biggest gigachads ever.
>>730999435Lol I don't care
They're so fucking COOL.>>730998394>>730999676Even though he's a harem MC, he's the type of guy that will settle with one girl.
Fate gacha is shit. Who the fuck plays that crap? The gameplay is so garbage and unfun. The gacha rates are shit too.The only thing good about the Fate series is the hentai it spawns.
About to start Samurai. What did I think of it?
>>730978563Based. But for me its 160+cm
I love the original Stay Night, Heaven's Feel is my favorite route.But the games are incredibly mid to underwhelming, especially later entries where they try to couple the Master-Servant Dynamic despite the studios or people behind them having worked on games before where it can be copypasted from with adjustments to fit into the Fate IP.
>>730979008>no route
>>730999886>playing FGOJust watch the cutscenes. You could have played Samurai Remnant, Extra CCC, Unlimited Codes, Battle Moon Wars or read the VNs.
>>731000092>higher than 90% on SteamYou like it.
>>731000092It sucks
>>730999886The thing that gets me about Grand Order is that there's no narration. It's literally just characters talking, like some anime.There's no prose, no descriptions, no inner monologues, no narration, nothing. Even arknights has some of that.How can you be a Type-Moon game based on a VN WITH Nasu even writing some chapters and not have that shit
>>731000361You can acknowledge how sparing it is but it's not "nothing".
>>730997856we were robbed
>731000015So what triggered the bot this time?
>>731000361You have never read it.Most of part 1 is shit, but part 2 is better.LB6 was written by nasu and that shit is straight kino
>>730978208>Honest thoughts on the Fate series?Fate/Extra is good.Fate/Extella tried but fell off the rails at the end.Fate/Extella Link is basically fanfiction.Fate/Grand Order is a complete scam.Haven't played thru Fate/Stay Night yet, so I'm not going to comment too much on it until I do. I haven't been impressed by what I've seen so far, but I'm willing to be swayed after playing thru all the routes.Fate fans tend to be incredibly obnoxious, even once you filter out all the gachafags. I'm honestly confused why so many say they prefer the VN but never even look at the other Nasu VNs out there. I suspect that most of the fanbase are actually the gachafags and the VN fanbase is just as tiny as it was before 2015.
>>730978208She's the same height as me.
nice
>>730979551>literally "we must be better men"
>>731001423So half the game is straight up garbage, and the latter half is only slightly above average except for maybe one chapter. Yeah totally worth the commitment instead of just reading something like stay night
>>730982370>all women look like monstergirls to average japsHoly fuck, I envy average japs now...
>>730983606Girugamesh-sama, thank you for keking me...
>>730997071>unending suffering and struggleWhoa, that's almost like life in general, even if you choose to do nothing but post on 4chan. Those firefighters and police officers? Man, imagine risking your life and getting hurt for the good of others, those inhuman motherfuckers! They have to grow up and realize how twisted they are! Fucking hell, they even try to arrest criminals alive! Imagine being so delusional that you want everyone to live! Do they never spare a thought to their families at home? Absolute sociopaths!
>>730978208My wife ORT-chan is so cute.
>>730988129That must have been a joke or made by secondaries. Servants are not corporeal, you can't get a ghost pregnant.>>730997245He was reborn wrong.>>730998148Stress, dude.
>>730979108I wish more Fate villains were just "I like hurting people", desu.
>>730978208trashive ignored it for over 20 years
>>730978208Fate Zero is goodOther anime, VNs or movies are trash
Samurai Remnant was pretty fun.
>>731001437If you like Extra, the CCC fan translation finally came out a couple years ago.
>>731001896Those firefighters and policemen hopefully go home with their wives and have hobbies outside of work.Shirou had absolutely no joy in his life. Every waking moment was spent on his obsession of being a superhero that can make it so others never suffer.He died a pointless death and with his dying breath made a contract with the world. Now he has to spend the rest of eternity fighting and killing for others. Since "justice" is a relative term he no doubt fought against things he believed in or on opposing factions of the same conflict.At no point does Nasu imply that wanting justice and fairness is wrong, nor that being willing to sacrifice oneself for the greater good is inherently wrong, in fact everyone in FSN including Saber, Rin and Sakura all have to make major sacrifices; but Shirou was self-destructive and his ideals leave to nowhere.You're a retarded selfinserter cocksucker who cannot grasp the idea that Shirou is a character with a different personality than yours. You are actively projecting your own bullshit onto him and thus feel personally attacked when someone points out that Shirou is, in fact, a retarded piece of shit.>>730998595That's the thing Archer uses at the end to cope with his shitty situation. In reality Archer never gets closer to his ideal because a single man cannot save the world.
>>731002714I saw, but I'm playing other games and so haven't got around to playing it. Much thanks for mentioning it.
>>730978208People said it was shit back in the day so I read the Infinity series and Higurashi instead.
>>730982141my gf is 171. i'm 170
>>731000015nice desktop bro
>>731002679I have criticisms for many things about the game, but finding out you were playing the villain all along was fucking based.
>>730982141Well I'm taller than the OP example anyway and that's at barely average for an europoor 178cm. 170+ woman is above average but not unheard of but pushing 180 is pretty rare. I genuinely like lankets though so I wouldn't mind.
omi-san was announced today.
>>731002830>Shirou had absolutely no joy in his life.That's either not true or Nasu's shit writing. Shirou said he found heroism beautiful. That alone says he got some semblance of gratification from helping others and thought it was worth his time. The same sentiment that drives all service industries. He said he didn't and would never regret it. That should've been enough reason for anyone.
reminder that taller people statistically live shorter lives
>>731002830>Shirou had absolutely no joy in his life.That's bullcrap. He liked the quiet life in Fuyuki, the cooking, the daily shit that happens with Sakura and/or Taiga. Just the fixation on becoming a hero of justice is like an consuming void that if a look at EMIYA is taken, derives him of that in pursuit for something that eventually got him hanged. Shirou just seeks out the joy from saving others, not realizing what it took for Kiritsugu to have such a look on his face. Shirou went:>If I can be happy like him in that moment then I've found purposeHe took the worst moment to seek out joy from the most horrible set of circumstances.
>>731004427>You have to be a manlet AND endure that state for longerIs it really an upside?
>>730995332>>730995548Would you believe me if I said these were BB cup size boobs?
