I don't think I need to explain what everyones timeline looked like who has a couple artists/illustratotors to follow while fate/apoc aired. Probably more Astolfo pictures than everything else combined during that time I don't remember a single thing you tweeted tbh. it's just about me having twitter, hence obviously knowing about him

What does Urobuchi have to do with Fate/Apoc? nothing, that's exactly the point I generally like the stuff that's written by him more and since Apoc isn't (as far as I know) I never ended up watching it I guess I'm not seeing the point. You watch tons of stuff that Urobuchi doesn't do, but for some reason when it comes to Fate, Its Urobuchi or gtfo? with fate I get the direct comparison within the same universe. I don't even like him in general, I just liked his stuff for fate more is all.

It's pretty much impossible to browse /r/anime_irl and /r/animemes and NOT know Astolfo lol
btw traps ARE gay.

I don't read reddit though, only went to the site like twice only so guess it's understandable if I missed it lol.
Also, this is probably the weirdest anime I've come across, just due to how bizzare some of this is. Does anyone know the reasoning behind any of this?

Milking the franchise with shitty fanservice?

Just Nasuverse things.
I don't even think it's that odd. Seems about par for course for jp fantasy genre.
|
It was an MMO game story that was axed then reworked into a ln series so yea its not exactly the best quality from TM but imo it has that Fate feeling to it, just not nearly as good as the other entries in the universe.
I mean Prisma Shitillya exists too. And HA ending was pretty weird.

And even Fate wasn't that bad when it was just Saber, and even then the reveal that Saber=King Arthur was supposed to be a surprising reveal. Now there are more gender-bent heroes than otherwise, and literal Saber clones everywhere. The Fate side of the universe is almost unbearable to me when you start factoring in the extended stuff from like FGO and the like.

Also Twitter, and hell, it wasn't exactly a secret in this thread, although thankfully it wasn't full of people posting trap porn constantly.

Most of the core Fate stuff is pretty reasonable. Once FGO came out though they had to produce a lot of new servants to keep the game going but even then the story (supposedly I haven't been able to read the later chapters yet as NA just came out) is good.

In other sad news, the voice actress for Bulma from the Dragon Ball franchise, Hiromi Tsuru, has passed away.

Feels like the anime is missing something but I can't place my finger on it :/ The guys on ANN were arguing that it's the "yolo, who gives a fuck" (not their words) fate if there ever was one from adding more servants because double the cool to jack the ripper being what we saw on the screen above. Just generally way less serious, on purpose. Again, at least according to ANN opinion
|
Why do I get the feeling this "ANN opinion" is really just Toad but he's too afraid to take ownership of it in case the fate fanatics come out to devour him for it.
|
I haven't watched it yet so I wouldn't write a column about it no matter where~
|
The proper answer to "Why is Jack the Ripper a moe girl?" is always "Because it's cooler that way"
|
That's not the question though. The question is "Why is Toad interested in Fate Apoc because of a loli in a thong?"
|
Best of both worlds for him?

Don't have to wait for fanart to draw her in a thong, if she's already in one in cannon!

Thats a question with a simple answer, though. Toad used to pretend to not be a lolicon, and act like lolis with like A-cups had "big boobs", but now hes just like "hot damn, loli+thong? sign me up".

to be completly honest with you guys, I thought that was some "damaged art" like in Kantai collection that has girls lose clothes the more damage they take (nothing too lewd though).
The more I look at it the more I think that's just how she looks by default, which makes it a fair bit more creepy
