Oh lord my sides (Nasuverse general)

Let's talk Nasuverse (Fate Stay/Night, Tsukihime, Kara no Kyoukai, etc.)

For Tsukihime, do I read the VN or the manga?

I've only seen the anime. Please don't hate me.

It's all a bunch worthless shit full of plot holes and general bad writing.

KnK part 2 is the only passable thing.

>full of plot holes and general bad writing

Can't argue with that.

Yet KnK is one my all time favourite anime for when it does get it right. And Part 2 was the best of it. Similarily I enjoyed Fate/Zero.

But the Fate/Stay VN. Oh my god the VN. I don't know if it's the translation that magnifies the bad, but that is the worst writing I've ever made myself endure to the end. That people are recommending it over the anime adaption (not UBW, the first one) is legitimately terrifying, for the idea that something not just worse, but exceptionally worse, exists and is loved by entry level weebs, is just... madness.

The idea behind Fate/Stay is interesting, but the execution...  :sad2:

If you haven't read Tsukihime you should do that now

I just tried reading F/SN the vn.
It's as bad as Ming says it is.
Truly terrible writing.
"She has shown some capacity for even making yam soup by grinding yams"
Is this a machine translation? It's so clunky.
And why would you tell us that she can grind yams?
Is that supposed to be indicative of her cooking skills?
That's like calling myself a chef for grating cheese.

Yes and no. Shiki in Tsukihime is like a weird blend of Shiki and Mikiya from KnK with some twists.

But the plot is entirely different, minus Shiki just like Mikiya falling in love with a strong, dangerous woman (Arcureid, at least in the route the manga adapted).

Do not watch the anime, it chops things up and is very rushed. The manga is quite good though.

I haven't played the VNs, so I can't comment on those.

Wait what.
Shirou goes to school with no protection, while Rins there.
Someone who he has no chance of winning against.
And she just told him that she considers him an enemy.
There's dense, but then there's plain retarded writing.

But he acknowledges that she's declared him an enemy.
He even says it out loud.
Goddamn there's so much potential here but it's buried so deep.

So?

If a girl I liked said she was now my mortal enemy, it wouldn't change the way my heart feels

That's not what I meant.
If Shirou was a realistic character he would have killed himself out of love right then and there.
But he didn't, what the fuck?!?!?!

You can't love someone when you're dead.
