Hey FGO what is wrong with you not letting me use blue cubes for tunguska??? Hello??

[duckpasta-kamonabe]

Much to people's fear, I played the notorious new kaneko's game

(dat shining carpet)

And surprisingly, It was alright. (Aside from the AIslop)

I can't read japanese, but the game was simplistic enough. Put a card on the slots to block damage, or attack the enemy. Every cards has their own attack+defend stats and unique effects and being a roguelike, you'll need to collect the right cards to defeat the bosses and ascend. It was surprisingly challenging

obviously, one element that held it back was the AI

Kaneko's work isn't that fully washed yet. While it's not of a high output compared to his glory days of maken X, persona 2, soul hackers, nocturne and whatsoever. Some demons like Aillen are nice.

The problem with the AI, ethics aside (tho they stated that they used kaneko's own works as the pool, no other copyrighted stuff), was art cohesion. And this is causing some inability to form attachment

In a monster collecting game (or anything that's focused on creatures ensemble instead of human cast), obviously they'll get more priority in term of character designs so you'll feel more attached to them. The focus on monsters are the reason why many monster hunter clones fails to take off (Maybe god eater is the exception)

It's coz they focus too much on multiplayer experience, but never lets you care about the monsters beyond "Beat this guy and get materials to craft a better gear to beat a more stronger guy, repeat ad infinitum"

The problem with the AI generated content in the game was, the designs are so unmemorable and lacked the "iconic" part.

And worse of all, since there's demon cards I liked to use because of its usefulness and personal strategy, they fall flat into unmemorable territory because of its uninspired "art style and design" (due to AI)

"why are demons A looked like this? Why does monster B looked like this?" In religion. Most Gods gets attributed to certain objects.

When you think of a blue throat guy with snakes on his body, matted hair and his iconic trishula, it's obviously Shiva. Persephone with pomegranates, Poseidon with his trident, etc. etc.

Character designs are like that, simply there's an icon/fashion/attributes to represent their personality and role.

But AI are sadly biased to surface levels interpretation, which makes an uninspired forgettable depiction. (Usually they'll be remembered more for its coombait/COOL shock factor but that's another story)

it also looked out of place compared to kaneko's actual design, and hilariously enough, kaneko seemed to be more honest that these AIs are fake(?) but sadly inevitable.

Most (AA+) game studios these days probably secretly used AI in their backrooms. Once a staff who worked at southeast asian branch of bamco told me on how AI is rather widespread in bigger industries and human artists are only there to clean the AI's mess to hide its involvement

With art style being pigeonholed to hyperreal super detailed or flat anime with softer details (compared to 90s with stylized anatomy and stronger shading), it seems to be more easier for AI to seep through the cracks

---

Had this game ditch the AI and opt for collaboration, maybe it'll be more memorable compared to just utilizing AIslop, but that means colopl needs to pay more freelancers, and for obvious fucking reasons, studios really hates paying their artists.

Mobage/Gachas are known to have large roster of character designer anyways. Even niche ones like housamo/GYEE could still get one, why not Tsukuyomi?

I know there's still art direction problem, but humans are more easy to keep track of compared to AI's randomness (and limited pool since they didn't use copyrighted materials)

Plus a collab would've be cool. Imagine a return of Araki ft. Kaneko again

...Problem is, we know there's a community of artist to select for said collab. FGO/XC2 usually employs popular big name game artists (sometimes hentie ones), housamo/GYEE obviously selects from gay (men) media pool. But is there a community of people who loves folklore/myth/monster design...?

---

Another lost chance is to implement tarot card / card rider imagery to a game where cards are the main gimmick

I know personastans are gonna seethe at the game "IT'S PLAGIARISM!111" (wouldn't that make it self plagiarism?) since they thought persona 5 invented jazz and japan before izanami and izanagi went down to earth.

Card rider imagery would rather be funny since Tsukuyomi's bent towards tokusatsu aesthetic. (A big irony when you think how even more tokusatsu'd SMT was post IV with its super sentai odin and fang joker zeus) , but it'll be more fitting

There's so much missed opportunity to implement these aesthetic, which sucks since the game is rather well made (aside from the AI, which from my point of view. Feels more of a gimmick)

I know they inserted AI because it fits the random nature of roguelike, but I wish there's more better option than using AI to generate unmemorable slop

Well, at least Kaneko was more aware. This is a contrast to bunch of normie non artist bigwigs that worships AI like it's godjesus creator of mankind.

Sadly, this game feels more like a "Featuring Kaneko from the SMT series!" compared to a full fledged "Kaneko's game" like his past works

I'd say it's more of the industry problem opposed to Kaneko's problem. If you designed 600+ demons and humans, defined the image of a small company, and even made jack frost, but got no royalty from it. Wouldn't you be just pissed?

Maybe we're just too harsh on artists, man. Blame the higher ups for stirring horizontal conflict because no matter how much talent an artist have in their field, it's ALWAYS those higher up with privilege, money and higher position on their nameplates that always get the final say over everything, regardless if it's good or slop

It does make me wonder how Kaneko would be if he's faring better at freelance, at least Yoshitaka Amano returns to draw arts for new final fantasy games and still exhibits his works or freelancing

but KNK? zamn :(

Interview 1

Interview 2

[fandom-go-round]

I have an FGO request for Shuten douji and Penthesalia with a male S/O that likes it when they mark him with Hickies and bite marks, even telling them he likes that it shows that he belongs to said servant

Warnings: Implied Sex, Implied Sexual Situations, Biting Kink, Marking Kink

Shuten Douji:

Oh ho. Be careful telling Shuten that you like her marks. She thinks it’s amusing you have the guts to be so open with her. She loves it, don’t get her wrong but you’re tempting fate by telling an oni you like their marks. You want her marks? Shuten is happy to give you as many as you want and even more.

She’s a naturally possessive Servant but doesn’t say so out loud. You showing off her hickies helps sooth the beast inside; everyone knows you belong to her and it’s nice to not have to fight people off. Shuten will play coy if people try to call her out but on the inside she’s laughing.

There are times when you have to talk to Shuten about calming down with the marks. Your neck will be black and blue and covered in teeth marks. Da Vinci and Mash will pull you to the side to either cover your neck or talk to Shuten. She thrives off the drama your neck is causing and will only stop if you ‘bribe her with something fun’. Of course, she’ll stop if you ask her to but she’ll pout about it.

Penthesalia:

Penthesalia is torn when you tell her you like wearing her marks. She’s happy the two of you have a kink in common, that means you’re more compatible in the bedroom. She likes giving you marks so even better you want them because she can give you more. The idea that makes her pause is you like to show them off. She gave you these marks in private and never considered you would bring them into public, silly looking back.

She’s not going to stop giving you marks but she will try to be more strategic about them. She’ll place hickies lower on your neck and chest, even marking up your hips if you’re being particularly squirmy. Penthesalia will never answer other people’s questions if they ask but secretly, she enjoys that you desire her attention so much.

The only time she goes out of her way to leave dark hickies is when you’re close to death. If you’re out on a mission and almost die, she’s possessive when you come back. Penthesalia in the field is a force of nature, ripping through enemies to keep you safe. If she finds out later that you were injured, she goes to find Achillies to blow off some steam. After you’re healed, she has no mercy; your neck is going to hurt once she’s done with you.

[tamamita]

I haven’t played FGO years, did something new happen or are you talking about same old same old with them?

In a recent event, they appropriated what appears to be an australian aboriginal figure, which is apparently so sacred that there is a trademark upon them. The character is some blue tiddy girl with a giant boomerang.

FGO has a history of whitewashing historical and sacred personalities of different religions & cultures.

Fated Rantings: The Grandest of Orders

Truly a grand epic

I don't know where to begin honestly. I thought that I would have it figured out once I had seen the anime but I don't. I started FGO nearly two years ago I believe after watching some Fate lore videos.

It was the free way to start but probably not the easiest starting point for the series. I have actually been clawing my way through the game as I watched all the other Fate works I could get a hold of.

If you were to look through my Fate posts you'll see that the first one is about Apocrypha and Astolfo even though that wasn't my true starting point.

But I grind no longer! Last month I finally finished the Solomon singularity on the mobile game and the night before last I finished the anime! And I'll admit that I didn't expect the anime of FGO would be that good.

I say that because despite the anime having three movies, a few specials, and a twenty something long anime it's not the full story. There is no logical way to fit FGO's initial story into an anime.

You'd have to commit to years with each singularity being an anime unto itself. So I say this again to warn you, you can not see the full story just through the anime alone.

This anime project they created is very much a companion piece to it's mobile origin. It is not like Fate Stay Night which has it's original visual novel version with various anime adaptions.

This is probably the one case in which a Fate project isn't a thing unto itself. You could watch it and research FGO to understand what's going on but I promise you that the emotional weight of the story will be halved that way.

Although, I guess you could read someone's long play of FGO on youtue if you wanted but good luck. FGO is practically a visual novel hidden within a gacha game.

Mashu Kyrielight

But enough of the warnings and intro, where do I begin? Why with the best kouhai in the world of course!

She's your main servant for this story and she's the one that bounces off the characters the most due to your insert character being silent in the game.

She does this less in the anime due to the PoV character being given a personality but I still consider her interactions more important. This poor girl is a test tube baby made with a woefully short lifespan for a specific purpose.

As a result of this origin and upbringing the poor girl is quiet and reserved. Her greatest desire is to just see a blue fucking sky. Do you know how tragic that is?

Chaldea resides in the Antarctic. The facility has windows but that area of the world will be lucky to see a clear sky one day a year. On top of all that her room is hilariously sterile with nothing but a glass roof and walls so that she can be observed.

These things aren't done to torment her, for that to be a thing Chaldea would have to see her as a person. No, it's done because they wanted her as blank a state as possible for their demi-servant experiments.

An experiment that goes bad quickly. They successfully summon and bond her to a servant but the servant is so appalled by what Chaldea has done that it immediately tries to kill the Chaldea Director Marisbury Animusphere.

This is only averted because Mash herself resists. From that moment on the servant, who turns out to be the knight Galahad, refuses to awaken. Considered a failure despite it being beyond her control, Mash is then kept around just because.

She chosen as a master candidate since she had the potential but for the most part Mash was seen as a dud by Chaldea.

Why is this important?

I'm not rambling for the sake of recapping. I want you to understand just how pure a soul this girl is. She doesn't hold grudges against people, she doesn't wish evil upon anyone, despite all of what I just listed.

That's why I find her interactions through FGO both in the game and anime more interesting than the main characters. She reacts to things in a pure and naïve way but never in an annoyingly naïve way.

She even explains why she calls your character or others "senpai". I mean, sure it's for the people that take the self insert too seriously. It's a gacha, it's Fate, let's not fool ourselves here, those people are appealed too.

But the other reason is that her life left is short and she's never left Chaldea before to experience life. To her, everyone is her "senior in life". It's silly but I also found it sad despite the story wanting me to find it sweet.

I found myself genuinely attached to this character in a sense.

I know I should provide better examples but FGO is so long that it's hard to really. I even mentioned her interactions with characters a second ago but I can't pick one that I like more than the other.

I talked about her dynamic with Lancelot in the Camelot posts but that's more to do with how Galahad views Lancelot (his father) which influences Mash.

I don't want to list the MC because they're a self insert. The dynamic between the two in the anime is good but Ritsuka himself is a bit bland so I can't exactly pick it apart.

Or perhaps I can't focus on a specific one because I liked all of them both animated and in mobile. She's a precious lil soul and I loved to see it.

Everything from her trying her best to be a servant in the Fuyuki singularity to her sacrifice against Goetia. Hell, I loved watching her fan girl over meeting Sherlock.

She's remarkably human for someone who thinks she isn't.

^ Both versions of this scene actually put a tear in my eye

Before I unintentionally make this a post about Mash I'll switch gears and talk about other characters in the Chaldean cast.

Such as our point of view character Ritsuka Fujimaru. The male version is referred to as Gudao by fans and the female Gudako respectively.

In terms of the mobile game I don't have anything to say, they're silent, self insert characters in the purest sense of the word. In the Type-Moon spin-off Carnival Phantasm the female is used in FGO skits.

I've yet to see Carnival Phantasm so I'll have to leave it out but it's worth mentioning that the female Gudako does have an animated self.

Instead, I'll focus on the male Gudao used for the FGO anime. Unlike my smartass PoV character or the unhinged Gudako from the spin-off this Fujimaru is given a very "simple" personality.

Not in the sense that they're stupid or slow on the uptake. They just do not flesh him out as much as they could due to his silent hero origins.

I find it a shame that they didn't but unlike many Fate fans I've seen I do not find this offensive either.

When they're bouncing off Mash the duo is as cute as can be but any other time Fujimaru will have a very optimistic or overly nice personality and that will either rub you the wrong way or it won't.

The only time this persona truly breaks down is when Mash falls against Goetia and he's ready to fucking throw down.

I'll even go out on a limb and say that Fujimaru does a few things well despite what I've just said. Sure, the fondness servants have for him is...uh something especially in the anime with his goddess count.

But I did see what the writers were doing. Fujimaru isn't some grand mage with a lineage nor any special powers. All versions of Fujimaru is literally just a normal person that somehow got to Chaldea after seeing a job ad.

However that is the point. In many Type-Moon works it'll boil down to a human vs a godlike or monstrous force. Fujimaru is that in the purest since.

I may joke but it makes sense for the goddess to be fond of him in the anime because he represents what a human should be and despite what the gods of Fate say they do love humans.

I'll even throw my hat into the conspiracy theorist ring and say that Gilgamesh's own inclinations toward aiding Fujimaru is due to this human fondness.

In his mind, the age of gods should be ended by the people of his era. He thinks the ordeal as a whole should be dealt with by human hands.

And despite everything Fujimaru has done that, six times over, seven once Tiamat is stopped. Again, I won't argue that FGO isn't pandering to a certain type of person but I do think our MC does right in those moments as well.

It's a normal human that convinces the goddess to turn on Tiamat, it is a normal human that fist fights with Goetia as the world is about to end, it is a normal human by nothing but the virtue of their choices that stopped Solomon's incineration of humanity.

I wish Fujimaru was given a bit more of a personality in the anime but I do see what they were going for and I can appreciate it.

Da Mona Vinci

Another Chaldean character that will grow on you in any version is Da Vinci. Why is Da Vinci a girl? Funny thing, there is no magical, logical, or even "fuck it" logic for the changed gender. Da Vinci likes beautiful things and made themselves as you see after becoming a servant.

How? I have no clue. I just find it funny that they chose the Mona Lisa as their appearance because that's a pinnacle of beauty to them. So yes, even in Fate Da Vinci was a man in life but as a servant she remade herself into her own painting which I find hilarious.

It's a testament to how silly Da Vinci actually is. She's every bit the genius she's reputed to be and can be serious and responsible quite reliably. In fact, you could argue that she's the most reliable adult there given that the only other options are Romani and what's left of the staff.

You sadly see little of her in action in the anime save for the Camelot films due to her role as a support but what scenes she gets in the anime never disappoint.

To be honest I'm not sure if she even has to stay in the command room or if she does so simply due her responsible nature of keeping it running or keeping Romani on task. The sixth singularity is the only time she really sneaks off to join you on a mission.

I also love how some of her inventions are just nods to old blueprints Da Vinci made in life. Like her vehicle she's so proud of or the small flying machine that hangs from her offices ceiling.

One of her weapons for combat is a literal fuck you gauntlet that just hits really hard. Da Vinci is a caster, that's equivalent to giving a bard a shotgun. The gauntlet even has a press like thing that makes it hit harder. Similar to when you see the mech from Big 0 finish off a monster.

By far her greatest feat is being the one being to earn even half of Romani's trust which is only seen in the final moments of the final singularity.

It's hinted that they're close or that she knows more throughout the whole story but you don't really see the gravity of that until Romani reveals himself. Speaking of which....

Romani Archaman

This fucker right here....he's shockingly complex? For most of FGO he seems like a silly and usually unreliable man but not a bad one. he genuinely cares about Mash when most do not and it is only by luck that he survives the initial bombing due to meeting Fujimaru while slacking off from work.

If you play the game you'll even learn that he's a fan of an idol called "Magi⭐Mari" whom I just learned was actually Merlin....which is a quandary that I'll save for later.

What makes him complex enough to discuss is his conflicting nature. He's the type to observe or run away despite seeing the gravity of something yet all it takes for him to take action is to see someone doing their best.

I would say that most of this is a façade but that'd be a half truth I think. He's genuinely this silly and clueless to some social cues but he is that way for a good reason....which is spoilers.

I'm going to spoil it so if you're some rare person who hasn't played FGO before this is your hint to skip ahead.

Solomon

The truth is that Romani is Solomon, the king of magecraft. The inventor of summoning magic, the last great king of a united Jewish kingdom.

More importantly, he fits into what you could call monstrous or inhuman. He had God's blessings and a miracle but he didn't really do anything with them.

Not for any morally or religious reasons, rather Solomon claims to have not had the freedom to do so. He wasn't free to be mad at humanities bullshit like Goetia was.

He didn't truly long for anything, he didn't truly live. Once he helped Marisbury win a grail war he simply wished to be human but even that was denied him in a way.

Right before Romani lost Solomon's clairvoyance he saw one last future of humanity going extinct. So now Romani felt compelled to work to stop that but fully lacking the powers Solomon had.

This is what makes Romani who he is. He was human for ten years but he says things he shouldn't and misses social cues among other things that come off as him being silly or somewhat introverted.

He just lacks the common sense as it were. You can't expect an inhuman being to just adapt instantly to the modern world in ten years. Especially when he was secretly using that time to stop his premonition.

The only person he truly opened up to was Da Vinci and I think that is due to how she is and her nature as a servant. She was summoned to Chaldea which would make her easier to trust than people within Chaldea who had been there years and possibly as sleeper agents.

Which is only more true when you realize that his other "friend" Lev truly was a sleeper agent. The anime movie glosses over it but Goetia actually planted it's 72 demon gods into the genetics of bloodlines.

One day Lev quite literally just became aware of his true nature.

I'd even argue that Romani took such a stance of being Mash's personal doctor because he identifies with her to a degree. She is denied being truly human and he finds that tragic.

In an odd sense, Goetia also identifies with Mash for that same reason. Both Romani and Goetia pity her for her life but while Romani is trying to make her as comfortable as he can with human experiences Goetia wishes to turn that into hatred.

Because both Romani and Goetia were forged from Solomon's inhuman behavior.

And it's tragic to know that even when truly human Solomon could not enjoy his time. Romani never got to live as he wished too and that's tragic in of itself.

Gonna have to make this into two parts

This has gotten a bit long. I expected it would since I had always planned to meld my impressions from FGO's game and mobile but there is way too much to put into written form.

Even what I end up having will be a fraction I think due to how long it's taken to beat Solomon's arc in the game and watch the anime.

That said, if you read this then by all means click my link below. I should have part two there by the time you find it.

P.S. A final bit of FGO lore for you. If you thought Romani and Da Vinci were cute or like an old married couple in a few scenes then relish in the fact that their japanese voice actors are married. Byeee~

any and all gacha games (fgo, azur lane, blue archive, arknights, limbus company, honkai, genshin, etc etc) is made to pray on ppl who are more susceptible to gambling addictions. but not only that they also are addicting to ppl who believe themselves "better" at resisting the temptations (christianity 2.0) without them even noticing theyre addicted to it. sure, they are f2p, they can play without spending anything and just using the units they win by farming - but thats exactly it: theyre addicted to playing, not. spending. theyll play for 100+ hours weekly, grinding non-stop week after week just to get to the same level as the p2w. in the end, both the p2w and the f2p are addicted to it - they just both pretend they arent and accuse the other of being.

[mobiuslab]

Reverse: 1999 seems unreal; too good to be true.

The reason I even took notice of it in the first place was its soundtrack. I hate jazz, but they made a jazz song that I actually like, and then there's ReReReRegulus!, what a banger. And then I watched the trailer, to get a feel of what the game is even about. First of all, the accents! Hello? I normally always play games in JP, but this game seems to be set not in some fictional world, but in our real world, in the real London, so the British English dub would be so much more immersive (but of course there are a lot of familiar JP seiyuu, I'm very conflicted.) If this game, unlike Genshin, has a good voice director, who actually does their work and tells the VA's how the character is supposed to sound, I might play in English tbh. As a former FGO player, traveling to the past isn't an entirely novel concept to me, however, we are going to the 20th century, which is quite interesting. I mean, think about it, the 20th century of our real world, there are so many fascinating historical events. And it seems that they are putting in much more effort in portraying the zeitgeist of the era than FGO ever did. The artistic direction seems to be on point for this game. Apparently there is a main character, with a canon personality and fully voiced dialogue. Hoyo making Honkai Impact 2.0's new MC a self-insert was the stupidest move, and I'm so glad that this game understands how much better a canon protagonist is. It really convinces me that they care about storytelling and characterization. The general artistic direction is so impressive, but the game itself also surprises me. The base rate of 6-stars is 1.5% (compared to Genshin and Star Rail's 0.6%) AND the soft pity starts at 60, with hard pity being at 70. There doesn't seem to be a weapon gacha and the dupes only increase skill multipliers instead of completely changing how a character can be played. At first, I thought it was unfortunate that pick-up rate was only 50%, but every character joins the standard pool, so losing the 50/50 won't be nearly as bad. Unless the gacha currency economy is completely fucked, this seems extremely generous. The combat is thankfully not one of those god-awful auto-fights like Blue Archive or PriConne, but it's turn-based, which is much more engaging, allowing for challenging battles that actually pick your brain and require some skill.

However, there is an auto-mode for the mundane stuff, and get this, you can record your actions, rather than having an AI do everything wrong. And thankfully, there is no PvP, so you don't need to compete with whales. Knowing all this, I really have to wonder, where is the catch? There must be some huge flaw, right? It is as if the devs of Reverse: 1999 looked at all the complaints and criticism of all other gacha games, and just decided to address all of them. As long as the game doesn't have a huge reliance on meta characters to clear endgame content and event-limited content and the writing doesn't absolutely suck, then this game might be the perfect gacha game. I'm so excited to give it a try!

Weekly Roundup: Prompt reminders

TSUKIHIME

Satsuki as a harem protagonist! (preferably sfw)

Prompt: The Tsukihime Arihiko route.

guro, Can I get Arcueid and Ciel disemboweling each other and cuddling above the warm blood and guts? Romance preferred, but platonic works too.

FSN

loli, World where Illya doesn't die and her family isn't all up into her business so she can do what every 18 year girl wants, watch horror movies, drink sake, get gangbanged. The basics

MEPHISTO

castoria, chen gong, and mephistopheles face an impossible challenge: solving a problem without blowing anything or anyone up

smut, Gudako appreciates how good Mephistopheles’s cock is, visually and from a taste perspective (seriously, I bet it’s like nine inches long with a gradient on it [like the one on their arms but going from red to blue instead of from blue to red], and if you suck their dick, their cum probably tastes like strawberry yogurt).

Wholesome fluff of Mephistopheles baking brownies with Grandma Europa

Funny rivals moment: Mephistopheles teasing Archer Moriarty over how they’re technically older than him (going my their works’ release years)

i feel like mephistopheles and leonardo da vinci would make a sexy mechanical waifu doll out of bombs to prank blackbeard at least once. just some absolutely looney tunes shit.

smut, Mephistopheles uses Afterimage to gangbang virgin!reader. Bonus points for Mephistopheles having a rapid weight gain kink, and EXTRA bonus points for (this part is the most important) genderfluid Mephistopheles

smut, Castoria gangbang. Can be named characters, can be a mob, I don't care I need this girl to be the protagonist of an orgy. Bonus points if you get her covered in and/or filled with cum. Dubcon is ok, but no straight-up noncon please!

OTHER FGO

smut, I need more Dom!Guda. Doesn’t matter who subs.

anything bartholomew/guda please,, can be either smut or fluff, i just want more content of this pirate man

Goredolf/Koyanskaya? Can be smut, can be pre canon, post canon, pining, angst, anything you want! I'm just FASCINATED by the fact that this guy almost got murdered by her like three times yet have enough leftover love to hang onto the lipstick she gave him

incest, hi you know that bit in oberons valentines scene where he implies hes going to ask his caesar for money cause hes his dad in the play hes from yeah its ruining my life can i have some oberon/caesar to alleviate my hysteria about it how far you lean into the incest side of things is your prerogative but i need this its killing me

Shimousa Kiyohime gets mixed into Proper Human History Kiyohime's spirit origin and she suddenly finds herself Very Attracted To Musashi

Hi can I get uhh extremely unethical knifeplay from a Mister Hyde please? With some blood to drink? Thank you! Dubcon or Noncon is fine!

in fgo, kirei doesn't have magic resistance , so gudako could use her command seals to force him to wear a playboy bunny leotard , or model for a sexy fireman calendar. there's endless possibilities when it comes to doing lewd things to yorokobe man with the help of command seals~!

smut, if anyone feels like making like the first piece of actual content i can find wherein xu fu and yu mei-ren fuck that'd be swell. not like in a weird cruel twist or ntr thing way just xu fu getting dicked down and having a good time

[miquellah]

sorry if someone coming out of the blue about this is weird, but holyyyyy shit same about FSN. calling it an eroge feels wrong just because it has a bunch of adult content but "sex" is only part of the "adult content", so it's an adult game because it deals with a lot of adult topics and sex is one of them. does that make sense? it's so odd when people focus on the sex scenes when 90% of the time nasu is going into Lord of the Rings levels of world building over here

Nah it’s totally fine!! and yeah i’ve (shamefully) been an FGO-only for several years, with a lotta osmosis into the other stories and such— so i kinda just shrugged off all the jokes cuz i was like, well yeah, from what i’ve seen nasu is horny but there’s like. definitely substance there. but Trusting this versus like, going in there and actually seeing it for myself. Wow!! Okay!!!

and again, i’m only like halfway thru saber’s route so far, but with the way the character dynamics have actually been built up, i really appreciate the actual intention put into the yearning and romance there. so it really WOULDN’T feel shoehorned-in and out of the blue whenever there’s supposed to be sex. but yeah its absolutely 100% not the focus, and it feels like ppl who joke about it being pure horny eroge haven’t even actually played eroge. or maybe even FSN

[homeinchaldea]

Finally got them to bond 6.

[keykidpilipili]

Rider elizabeth: my cinderella dress is white

Me: Ah I see the localization team or the fgo crew know about the dress color arguments.

[gacha-incels]

Some further upsetting things about the Hanako swimsuit version from the Blue Archive wiki (don't play, certainly never will now, so don't know how much of this is directly from the game, but I felt compelled to dig into this more after learning about the absurdity on your blog):

”procreative regions” 🤮 I know there’s incels out there with the “it’s just a drawing” frame of mind but I actually find this even more damning. If it’s just a drawing they could have made her any age, but they specifically chose to make her a 16 year old student in the game where “you” are the teacher and must spend money and time “aquiring” her in the gacha. what kind of guy do you think that appeals to? The pedophilic illustrations from the fans are not an anomaly imo unfortunately this type of thing is not uncommon in gacha games. designers create characters like “Summer Chloe” from FGO or “Summer Myrtle” from Arknights to pander to this type of fan. They’re not coy about it.

you play fgo?? it's rare to find someone playing it in any of my fandoms 😭 who's your favourite servants from each class?

Oh poor fgo, I typed up a giant answer to this and then it disappeared (╥﹏╥)

Assasin of Shinjuku is my favorite servant of all time, so I'm holding him up here at the start so I can list some other assasins I like lol. I wouldn't be playing Twisted Wonderland if he and Floyd didn't share voice actors

Saber- it's technically Bedivere but I have to mention Gawain here too. I don't really like Gawain all that much but he keeps showing up and I do have a figure of him :/ so he gets an honorable mention. Bede is a wonderful Saber and deserves all the praise he gets.

Archer- Aśvatthāman. Would be Arjuna if he'd pick up the phone but for now it's Ash and his fat ti-

Lancer- I love Brynhildr, she's iconic, she is everything, she is the moment, and as a fellow deranged megane simp I can confirm she can do no wrong. Karna is also great ESPECIALLY with that lost belt skin.

Assasin- It's a tie between Osakabehime and Gramps. I was so fucking pissed when the Babylonia anime came out and they didn't animated Azreal, get Rin's ass out of the frame I want to see First Hassan!!!! Osakabehime and Idia are very similar so I think that'd explain why I'm so chill with him being. Well. Him.

Caster- Nitocris. Nothing but respect for MY pharoh.

Rider- Technically it's Boudica? But the way this game treats my girl I'd say it's really Ozymandius. ooooooh Nasu when I catch you, WHEN I CATCH YOU.

Berserker- Fran my beloved baby who has never done anything wrong. I love her so much, from her design to her np. She's just so peak.

Ruler- Martha Summer version because Sherlock is a dirty drunk. She can do and would never treat me wrong.

Avenger- It has to be Dantes. I'm getting a team together to kill Zeus and it's all designed around him.

Moon Cancer- none of them.

Alter Ego- is it bad that it's technically Mecha Eli-Chan? I unironiclly love Liz and her variants, everyone else is sick of it but I'm having fun.

Pretender- Oberon, he's one of the characters of all time.

Foreigner- Voyager is my son and I'm never letting him go, Pale Blue Dot is such a cool np.

I think that's everyone? I'm really behind in the main story :/ I should get back to playing it but I've been more focused on getting back into the ffxiv grind.

Hey, are you an FGO player, a long time Fate fan, or just a visual novel enjoyer in general?

If so, than I highly recommend that to play Witch on the Holy Night (Mahoutsukai no Yoru) or as dubbed by long times fans, Mahoyo for short.

To sum it up, it's a story about witches and magic with hints of slice of life here and there starring an unlikely found family trio of quirky teenagers.

Not only is it available in english, but it's also now on Steam if you don't have a PS4 or a Swtich!

So what are you waiting for?

PLAY MAHOYO.

-----------

ONE MORE THING!

If you enjoyed Mahoyo and would like to check out other VNs by Nasu and Type-MOON, then please consider playing Tsukihime: a piece of blue glass moon which will be available in english and on consoles in late June and the legend itself: Fate/stay night [Realta Nua] set to be released later this year as well.

Guess I'll make a pinned post to give people info about my blog.

Kiri komori is my one true waifu, thus my blogs name. I'm a 31 m who frequently goes by NEET. (If anyone remembers me from the days I went as black_kero I'd love to say hi.) Located in east coast US. I only speak English despite trying to learn others.

Be warmed, blog is nsfw 🔞. Minors dni.

Most stuff I reblog is about games or anime or just stuff I find funny or aesthetic.

Fandoms I'm currently in:

Gacha games - gbf, blue archive, nikke, reverse 1999, fgo

Anime - sayonara zetsubou sensei, keroro, land of the lustrous

There's others as well but I could go on for ages about them, these are probably just the most prevalent. If you reblog or post any of these things lemme know and I'll more than likely follow.

Also art. I'm not as big into it as I used to be but I want to get back into it. If I do I'll probably make a side blog for it but for the time being this is my only blog.

Always open to asks and chats. If you want you can add me on discord or steam to play games together, just give me a shout and I can give you my ID.

I don't tag most normal things but I try to tag character and series names if I remember. If I make a personal post I'll tag it as

#self post

I occasionally reblog things that are nsfw. They are tagged as:

#nsfw - some form of nudity

#lewd - some form of sexual act

#booba - emphasis on boobs

#butt - emphasis on butt

Thanks for your time and enjoy your stay at Chateu Kiri-komori.
