Lacrima Castle _ Anime and Manga _ Fate/Blarg Whatever
Posted by: Kohaku Jan 10 2006, 07:45 AM
Saw episode one for FateStay Night the other day. It was very cool :) i'll gladly explain what I know about the storyline if people are interested here.
Posted by: Swifty-chan Jan 10 2006, 07:48 AM
Oro? What's that? A TV show? An anime?
Posted by: Kohaku Jan 10 2006, 07:56 AM
Yep. It's set in present day, and the main character (Emiya Shirou), finds out that he is a Sorcerer, bound to the fate of the battle for the "Holy Grail". He is to be a "Master", which is a person that controls one of the seven "servants". His servant is named Saber. She's a human girl with a really cool transparent sword. There are six other characetrs that get servants as well, some friends, others foes. Even then, all seven are fated to battle each other, as there can only be one that receives the "Holy Grail". Emiya Shirou doesn't really want to, but he ahs no choice when he gets attacked by a servant named "Lancer".

Cool. Where do I get it?
Posted by: Kohaku Jan 10 2006, 08:37 AM
I got the first episode from torrentspy.
Posted by: Kohaku Jan 10 2006, 10:12 AM
Can't wait until the second episode!
Posted by: Dr Sturm Jan 10 2006, 10:44 PM
Provide a torrent.
I demand it.
Posted by: Marionette Jan 11 2006, 12:34 AM
I like the show, its really cool. My best friend loves it, so I'm going to keep watching it. Archer is sexy. I dont' like Emiya though.

Liked it.
Waiting for more.

^_^ Pulled it over on Mr. Val! Nice.

Posted by: Kohaku Jan 11 2006, 09:52 PM
The servants I know the names of are:
Archer (Rin's)
Saber (Emiya Shirou's)
Berserker (Near invincible from what I can see)[That little girl with the hat's]
Lancer (Unknown Master)
Rider (Unknown Master)
Caster (Unknown Master)
Assassin(Unknown Master)
Posted by: Marionette Jan 12 2006, 12:53 AM
Avenger (Bazzet)
I think they're only in Fate/Stay Hollow/Ataraxia(?) though.
Posted by: Kohaku Jan 12 2006, 08:19 AM
I found out the name of that little girl. It's Illyasviel von Einzbern. Fancy names =O
Posted by: Dr Sturm Jan 12 2006, 08:24 AM
I'll have to remember that name then. Illyasviel von Einzbern...
Rock.
Posted by: Kohaku Jan 12 2006, 09:35 AM
If I had longer hair, (different coloured, too), red contacts, and a Russian hat and coat like that, I would look almost exactly like her..
Posted by: Elnendil Jan 12 2006, 11:20 PM
She's so adorable x3!
Her servant is kinda of a contradiction, though...a cute little girl behind some 10 foot tall ogre beast... xD.
I think Saber looks awesome though, I want to see episode two now.
Posted by: Anubimon Jan 15 2006, 04:26 AM
http://www.geocities.com/max3075/top.htm is a site with plenty of information on the plot of the Fate/Stay Night hentai game and its sequel, Fate/Hollow Ataraxia. Also has information on Type-Moon's other game, Tsukihime.
Rider is my favorite servant thing, along with Lancer.
Posted by: Marionette Jan 15 2006, 04:41 AM
Episode 2 is out, guys. It looks great!

Hardly! That little girl is just creepy.
Saber is hawt, and I've a newfound respect for the main character.

By little girl you mean Illyasviel?!
YOU FAIL FOREVER

Saber is hawt.

P.S.: Before you say it, I meant female characters from the start. Why would I state ugly ass people like Chaos or Roa.

This discussion is really off the wall.

Kohaku - Nothing special
Len - Don't know her
Arcueid - Nothing special
Ahika - Never been big on black hair
Hisui - "Okay"
Ciel - Hair is too short
Arima - Don't know her
Saber - Nothing special
Illy - Too young to be hawt
Rin - She's ok, but she's not a very "new" design.

You keep looking for tiny imperfections...they are still hawt, even if they may have "a little too much black hair."
So picky -_-
Posted by: Dr Sturm Jan 19 2006, 08:25 PM
You might have seen the words "Nothing special" next to a few of them. That means that there is nothing special about their designs, and are not (physically) interesting because of that.
Posted by: Kohaku Jan 19 2006, 08:39 PM
Update: Illyasviel von Einzbern is actually OLDER than Emiya Shirou (The main character).
Posted by: Dr Sturm Jan 19 2006, 08:41 PM
Sure. And Lina is older than Fia.

Yeah, and Haku is actually a girl in the japanese version of Naruto.
Haku is actually a guy.
And this is actually a Homosexual couple:
Things aren't always what they seem :3. And no, just being silly <3.

Shinie, if you want to talk about Naruto, start a thread for it.
STOP POLLUTING THIS THREAD WITH YOUR NONSENSE
Posted by: Kohaku Jan 19 2006, 09:18 PM
Now now, don't fight.. anyway, Episode 3 should be out for download by the weekend. I can't wait ^_^
Posted by: Kohaku Jan 19 2006, 09:19 PM
Who is "Haku" 0_0
Posted by: Elnendil Jan 19 2006, 09:21 PM
Haku is a guy from Naruto that was with Zabuza, and he really loved him. Died protecting him from a chidori.
In America, since gay's are looked down upon and people crap themselves over it, they made Haku a girl.
Back on topic: Illy is the sex.
Posted by: fensti Jan 19 2006, 09:40 PM
Haku is male in the show. He says it to Naruto himself.

I think that was a fluke. I remember many times when they referred to Haku was a woman. I guess I should rewatch to back that up, but who cares. The other one is still true though.

Posted by: Elnendil Jan 20 2006, 11:48 PM
Update: The download works. It's in Japanese, so you will need a translation. I found one, but I have to test it.
EDIT: There's a Trial Translation out. I have both Japanese and English ones. If you know or have a .txt translation of both Tsukihime and Fate-Stay Night, tell me.
Posted by: valkan Jan 22 2006, 06:39 PM
[SPOILER]
Emiya doesn't understand anything. That's why the creators set aside an episode to hold his hand and explain everything to him......
At least he wants to fight now. I can't stand angsty reluctant heroes.[/SPOILER]
So anyways, good episode.
Posted by: Dr Sturm Jan 22 2006, 06:51 PM
It COULD have been a good episode, but they just HAD to end it when Illy entered the scene...
Posted by: valkan Jan 25 2006, 04:28 AM
I have something to say:
<3 Saber
Posted by: Dr Sturm Jan 25 2006, 04:30 AM
Saber = lame, plain, mundane.
Posted by: valkan Jan 25 2006, 04:44 AM
Saber = Badass, Hawt, Silent
Posted by: Dr Sturm Jan 25 2006, 04:55 AM
How is she badass?
Because she wants to kill everything and gets angry easily?
I believe that's more indicitave of a psychological disorder.
Posted by: Elnendil Jan 25 2006, 11:16 PM
Do I love Illy too much? Discuss.
Posted by: Raijinili Jan 26 2006, 02:18 AM

Illy has none of those.

I think you're wrong. Also, if I play Fate-Stay Night more, I bet i'll run into a picture of her in one.
Also, first time I drew her. I was at school. I had to use what I remembered about her.
P.S.: I'll see about drawing her in her Russian cute stuffies.

We'll see if there are only 24 episodes or not. I'm just saying 26 just to be safe.

Rider didn't get pwned. Neither did Saber.
Rider was definitely overpowered, but neither or them really trounced the other. It pretty much came down to the last draw (or, without the simile, the last ultra-giga-hyper explosion of doom and unicorns and mythical swords).

Posted by: chrishawke Apr 15 2006, 07:23 PM
Here's a fun summary of episode 15.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Shirou decides to carry Saber like a Prince carrying a King....okay, that's probably a wrong analogy. Anyway, he decides to carry Saber so they can run away from Berserker faster. But Shirou ends up feeling tired so they decide to shack up in an abandoned house and have some fun threesome together. Shirou, however, is not used to threesome and he starts hallucinating about getting his arm chewed off by an ugly looking CGI dragon and then meeting Saber inside the creature's stomach. Yes, I think that's more or less what sex feels like. The next morning, Saber and Shirou wake up blushing as if this is their first time being eaten by a dragon.
Moving along, they got caught up by Berserker and Illya so they decide to fight him off. Shirou tries to shoot Berserker with puny arrow. Berserker wants to smash puny human but Illya tells him to get the girls first before Shirou. Berserker, a gentleman as always, agrees that girls should come first. When Saber is in a tight spot, however, Rin jumps forward to throw some exploding jewellery which freezes Berserker's right arm. Unfortunately for her, Berserker's left arm wants to re-enact King Kong with Rin. Rin, not wanting to be outdone, uses more exploding jewellery on Berserker's head. Berserker momentarily stops moving. But Illya explains that Berserker has 12 x life or rather, 7 more left now. With this in mind, Illya orders Berserker to squeeze Rin to puree.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Instead of going after Ilya, the obviously weaker one, they ALL GO AFTER BERSERKER. Archer used what, FIVE Noble Phantasms to murderize Berserker's face, and he could've killed Ilya with ONE. Sure, he would've died anyway but hey, Emiya, Tohsaka and Shirou would've been safe. And then, Tohsaka jumps out and blows up Berserker's head. Oh no, Tohsaka, definitely DON'T use your giant bomb like magic on Ilya's little petite, unregenerative body, cutting any chance of her survival. Real bright.
Posted by: Dr Sturm Apr 17 2006, 04:00 AM
Ash:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Attacking Illya is, first of all, against Rin and Emiya's wishes, so Saber and Archer won't do it. Second, a servant doesn't NEED a master. As was stated in the third episode (I had to go back and check to make sure I was right about this), a servant without a master isn't a dead servant. The servant can make a pact with masters that still have command spells remaining, and a master who's lost his/her servant can get another.

Illya is the only one controlling him. Did you notice his class? BERSERKER. He would likely kill anything that came near him if unrestrained.
Besides, with how strong he is, don't you think every single other Master would be out to make a pact with him?
And you assume killing Illya would be so easy. She was able to summon him, she must be one fucking hell of a sorcerer.

Actually, the fact that she can control him is a testament to her power. Weaker Masters can't control him, especially in the midst of a battle.

Remember WHY she was trying to kill them; the Holy Grail. Without a servant, she has no chance of it, so she's not going to touch them.

It was good in the beginning, with all the fighting. Then it became lame after Assassin died. Then it got good when Gil came and used one of his noble phantasms (don't know which though), then it cheesy when Caster's mouth was the size of her face, then it was sad when Caster and her Master died side by side, then it was just boring as they explained how Gil wants inside of Saber, along with spinning head effects.
Although, the last part wasn't completely boring, we found out quite a bit about the previous war, and Shirou's adoptive father.

Posted by: Megaolix May 21 2006, 12:22 PM
I'm really torn up on what I think the ending will be...
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
My brain tells me the ending will be the same as in the game, but my heart tells me the ending will be a new one that wasn't in the game.
The principal point of conflict is the fact that Servant can be granted a second life, which wasn't possible in the game.
So, if it is the same ending as in the game, why change that fact?
I don't know what to think anymore...

In response to Sturm:

Yes, it's a possibility.
Bu then again, why bothering to make him lie in the anime if it doesn't change anything?
And so far, he hasn't lied yet. He hides some things, but he hasn't really lied yet.
I think he told the truth.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
He could lie to try and break apart Shirou and Saber. He knows from the previous war that Saber WANTS the Holy Grail bad, if he can get Shirou and Saber apart, it would be significantly easier for him to take them down.

That's maybe going a little far with only 4 episodes remaining.
For now, I still think that they wouldn't have bothered to change that fact about the grail if they were going to use the same ending as in the game.
Anyway, look like we can't find the answers with what we know now. The only thing to do is to wait for the next episode.

Response:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Huh? Who said anything about being a normal human?
...Hmmm...I'm not really sure what was said about it in the game, since I just read a synopsis of the Fate's scenario.
At this point, however, I don't really want to discuss this anymore. I'll just wait to see what happens next.
But I'll search to make sure I have the correct info next time so I don't start something like this again.

It'll probably be released in Japan only, so if you want it, you'll have to import it.

I find this incredibly interesting because I liked Melty Blood which has nothing to do with Capcom.

The game looks great and is very fun to play according to my friend, but to those who do not understand Japanese like me, it's just purely a fighting game with cute characters. The game is Fate/Tiger Colosseum by the way.

My friend enjoyed that game too.

Type-MOON doesn't do happy endings. At least, their true endings are the sad endings.
I REFUTE THIS OVER A YEAR LATER BECAUSE KOHAKU TRUE IN TSUKIHIME IS HAPPY

This is why we can't have NUTHIN nice.

Update.
Also, hah, voices. Game doesn't need them.

Ah, it was a great anime. After re-watching it I feel a bit disheartened and sorrowful. However, is it not true that tragedy is what makes a tale worth telling?

Way to bump a thread from over 8 months ago. T_T

Would you rather have me started a new thread?
For the record, I'm an Archer fan.

They are making a Fate/Stay Night movie based on the Unlimited Blade Works story arc.
I don't know if it is going on the True or Good endings.

As creator of this thread, I declare it reopened and revived so we can discuss the new Fate/Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works anime!
Episode 1 review/thoughts pending.

Wow... This is a pretty old thread to dig out. Kinda surprised to receive an email notification from a forum that I've not visited for awhile lol.

Oh, did you subscribe to it? If you don't know how to unsubscribe, I can probably help you.
ALSO THIS IS NOW A GENERAL FATE THREAD. I WILL CHANGE THE TITLE WHEN I AM DONE POSTING THIS.
I watched all of the Fate/Zero anime and thought it was alright. And by that I mean it had a lot of really good, strong episodes... but at some point during the second season (after

Waver and Rider were out of the picture, actually)
I just totally lost interest. I did watch all of it, but that ending, man. :( What was that even. And it was hard to stomach seeing a character like Shirou when my only other experiences with this series before were the FSN anime (full of awful Shirou) and the Unlimited Blade Works movie which wasn't even trying to make sense.
I've also read part of Fate/Zero's novel but not too much. I might like it more, but I'm still not sure. Needs more reading to find out and I haven't been doing that.
SO UNLIMITED BLADE WORKS FOR REAL. I wasn't going to despite ufotable until this thread came back to life. I downloaded the first two episode. I'll watch them and post my thoughts later.

Zero is kind of a mixed bag, and its problems tie in with the same problems the original anime and the UBW had. SPOILERS AHOY FOR ZERO, VISUAL NOVELS, ANIME
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Namely that the visual novels (for Fate, UBW, and HF) spent a lot of time explaining Shirou's character and showing his thought processes and how he arrives at the conclusions he does. He is seriously messed up mentally, and his stupidly self-sacrificing nature is only one (albeit major) symptom of it. The original anime and the UBW movie completely failed to show us any of this and even outright exaggerated and misinterpreted him, making him look like a weird idiot you can't really sympathize with. Having to condense all of that into a movie would be very hard work if not impossible, so the movie sort of gets a pass, but the original anime had 20+ episodes to explain Shirou and they just completely failed to do it. (It didn't help that they tried to do a weird amalgamation of Fate, UBW, and HF in it, in each of which Shirou grows differently as a character that are directly contradictory and literally incompatible with one another.)
Zero was better at it, but it too failed to take into account the thought processes that the characters had in the novels, instead choosing to abridge a lot of it or only show the most crucial elements of the characterizations, making it hard to really care about what numerous characters are up to or why they're doing what they do.
ASSORTED FATE THINGS I'LL COMMENT ON NOW GOING BACK FROM A FEW YEARS
I enjoyed Fate/EXTRA and got into Fate/EXTRA CCC too. Hoping to read the Fate/Apocrypha novels someday, or that they get an animated adaptation of some kind. Also Fate/Prototype would have been neat, going from the little fauxpisode they released.

It's okay, I'll just stay subscribed to it, was just surprised by the email, thanks for offering help though. As for the topic- I think it might be because I read the original FSN VN, I did not feel that the ending was off cause it was sort of "hinted" while I was reading on the original VN. As for the original series, I didn't watch it so no comments from me there. I do like the Shirou portrayed in Heaven's Feel most followed by UBW and then the Fate route though.

UBW movie was way too short to capture everything in that route which was kinda expected when they announced the movie. I played Fate/EXTRA too and the gameplay gets repetitive but the story and history of various characters kept me going. Too bad there's no english version of Fate/EXTRA CCC yet...

I'm totally watching at least episode 1 and 2 tonight and posting thoughts/reviews, look to this post for them!

IN PROGRESS
Posted by: Rhiannon Nov 12 2014, 03:19 PM
Yeah, I sort of knew that there was no way the UBW movie could be good. I don't remember why I decided to watch it anyway, but it was a mistake. On the bright side, it made so little sense to me that I really only remember something about Rin and Lancer inexplicably hanging out in lava that they previously avoided because... it's lava. That probably never actually happened, either.
ANYWAY I FINALLY WATCHED EPISODE 1. So much nostalgia. Shirou's still Shirou, Shinji's still a jerk, I still dislike Sakura, and I wonder if Ayako Kawasumi is sick of being Saber yet. I also watched episode 0/the prologue thing and enjoyed that a lot more. Probably because it was less of a moredetailedandprettier retread of things I've already seen before and more LET'S HAVE RIN AND ARCHER BE TSUNDERE TO EACH OTHER FOR 40 MINUTES. I hope things will be more like 0 than 1 for the rest of the series. Although that won't matter as much when things start moving away from things I know about.
How does Rin even handle DST? :(

I guess this is sort of spoilers for episode 9, but not really. Doing it more because size of image.

UFOtable?

That movie wasn't ufotable. I'm pretty sure it was just Deen again.

Oh that explains it.
BUT NOT WHY YOU WATCHED IT.

I WATCHED ALL OF FATE/ZERO AND I READ THE FIRST ROUTE OF THE VN GUYS I CAN FINALLY SOMEWHAT KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT AROUND LIKE EIGHT YEARS? TOO LATE.
