If Fate/Hollow Ataraxia didn't exist, would you still like the F/SN servants better than the F/Z ones?(spoilers)

I enjoyed the servant cast of Fate Stay Night a lot more than those of Zero and I didn't read Ataraxia. I'm not sure about other folks though. |

Hollow Ataraxia is as great as it is because people already liked the servants from before. The reason it's so successful is because it just gives more of characters already liked. |

Aside from Gil IMO, F/Z servants aren't really likable. And yes that includes the two popular hypocrites. So F/SN servants are a huge step up. Also, the title should have a spoiler warning. |

I've never read Ataraxia, but the servants of F/SN were always better to me than their F/Z counterparts. Heck, if you think about it, both Saber and Gil appeared in F/SN first (due to being the source material). |

What's wrong with the F/Z Servants? I enjoyed all of them. F/Z Rider was especially awesome. I liked F/Z Gil better than F/SN Blondie. F/Z Berserker's "mad dog" antics were great. F/Z Caster was dastardly, in a good way. I preferred F/SN Saber to F/Z Saber, but Zero Saber was sweet too. While F/SN Lancer is superior to F/Z Lancer, I thought the latter was just fine. F/SN Assassin is far better than F/Z Assassin, though considering the latter's role, that's obvious. ALSO: Is Ataraxia any good? I never actually played it. |

Her chivalry was taken up to eleven for Gen so he can take pot shots at idealism at least that's how I saw it. |

I enjoyed most of the F/Z servants, but I liked the F/SN ones a little bit more, even before reading hollow ataraxia. Ever since I've read F/HA, I like them even more. |

Her shift in character can be explained by how the whole 4th HGW experience went for her and the decisions she made and their consequences. Add to that her final thoughts in F/Z and you'll find that the altered aspects in her character CAN make sense. I think it can all fit in the big picture. |

Even though, I think Zero added a lot more thought behind the motivations of Saber and why she wanted the Grail as much as she did. I can see people getting confused as to why she seems different in FSN, in Zero she was 100% full Chivalry Knight in every scene, simply becasue they were trying to develop this theme and make the whole Kiri/Saber relationship more impactful. |

I have a hard time with that considering this is a person who was willing to kill her own emotions as well as sacrifice entire villages of innocent people in order to keep her kingdom intact(Sacrifice a few to save many). She may have been a generally good person but she could also be pragmatic and at times could be downright ruthless. She lived this life till her end at the last battle with those beliefs so its hard for me to believe that that one bad round in that HGW during Zero was enough to change her. |

Not factoring in F/HA, this is how I rank the servants in order of my preferences. F/SN Saber > F/Z Gilgamesh >= F/SN Archer >= F/Z Rider >= F/Z Saber >> F/SN Rider = F/SN Lancer >> F/Z Caster > F/SN Gilgamesh >= F/SN Assassin (Kojiro) > F/SN Caster > F/SN Assassin (Hassan) > F/Z Lancer > F/SN Berserker > F/Z Berserker >> F/Z Assassin So overall for me, the F/SN servants have the edge. With F/HA however, my order becomes: F/SN Saber > F/Z Gilgamesh >= F/SN Archer >= F/SN Rider >= F/Z Rider >= F/Z Saber >= F/SN Lancer > F/SN Caster >> F/SN Assassin (Kojiro) > F/Z Caster > F/SN Gilgamesh > F/SN Assassin (Hassan) > F/Z Lancer > F/SN Berserker > F/Z Berserker >> F/Z Assassin |

She lived this life till her end at the last battle with those beliefs so its hard for me to believe that that one bad round in that HGW during Zero was enough to change her. She was the righteous king that her knights practically worshiped her. Nobody has ever questioned her ideals or decisions, let alone challenge them. Now you have: 1)2 kings who continuously bash her ideals, and even make fun of her reasons to obtain the grail. 2)A master that she thought she understood (they were extremely similar after all) completely shits on her, and then betrays her be denying her the grail. 3)A loyal subordinate who went completely mad by the actions and the decisions she made and kept on repeating even after her summoning in the HGW. All of that made it clear to her that she had it coming, and that all the actions she took in her life "I shouldn't have been king", AND in the HGW "How i could understand Kiritsugu's heart when i couldn't even understand the hearts of my people?" were completely and utterly wrong. And suddenly she was given a new chance and she was summoned again in the next HGW. How do you think she would behave? |

But she already thought of herself as a shithouse king before Zero, that's why she contracted with the Grail. What does she learn in Zero then? That she was actually a super shithouse king? I guess it does help to show her why there was all this Civil war shit going on in her backyard.. in her mind anyway. |

That's why her wish changed from Britain's victory (with herself as the king) to the redo of the selection of the king. |

From the anime at least, I don't think at the start she believed she was a bad king per say. At the Grail Dialogue, she still had conviction in her ideals on kingship. It's just by the end of Zero, she regrets everything and wants to remove herself altogether. Which sets up nicely for UBW with Archer's regret, and his conflict with Shirou. |

That's why her realization in the end of F/Z was so soul crushing for her. -kV- said: That's why I have been hoping for more non-moe Saber scenes in the BDs, and in the second season to resolve her arc. Saber's behavior in UBW so far is what she chose to be. Making her act like she did in F/Z would actually be a regression. |

Yes. FHA just made me like FSN servants EVEN MORE. Otherwise FSN servants(unlike Zero ones) had distinct and interesting personalities and backstories and lots of badassery. Hell, I even liked Saber in FSN, unlike Zero's CHIVALRY!Machine(gods did urobuchi fuck up there). Gods if she acted as one-note as in Zero I would have hated her more than Sakura. Thankfully FSN Saber is far more goofy and a stubborn flawed fuck-up, than Zero's nonsense. I am happy Ufo is not altering her behavior in UBW to "fit" Zero. When compared to FSN the only servant to like in Zero was Gilgamesh...and he is kind of...an FSN character xD |

She was highly EFFICIENT king and by that means she was basically Kiritsugu, sacrificing thousands for the most perfect outcomes for the majority of surviving ones. Barely anything of her had to do with Chivalry. There's pretty much nothing barring metting FZ Zerker that could challenge her in FZ. Kerry? she did far worse. Rider? Canon Saber would have a retort just like she did in fate to Gil. And even FZ Zerker would not do anything that her last fight with Mordred did not do to her already.

Because that is TRUTH? the lore bits that nasu oversaw are great. seeing great fire, grail, etc was great. When it comes to things Butcher would actually have to write himself, Iskandar is INFURIATINGly whitewashed and Saber as well as most characters are one dimensional. Bassically what is great is what is based on what Nasu already wrote in FHA and FSN(Iris, Kerry, Kirei, etc) and what is bad is what Butcher "filled in" (Seiba the Chivalry Exposition Device) |

Yes. I've read Hollow Ataraxia after watching Fate Zero anyway, so my opinion on F/SN servants was formed solely on F/SN. F/Z Archer was great. Other servants are mostly bland, except for F/Z Rider for his notable charisma. On the other hand, all F/SN servants (yeah, including that on who appears in only one route) are simply more lifelike, more intriguing and deeper; you can simply sense that there's something below their outward appearance. Yeah, even F/SN Berserker for that one scene in Fate and his Crowning Moment of Awesome coming in the 2nd cour of UBW. |

That's why Kiritsugu went on that tirade, because he couldn't stand her. She was the head of the Round Table, so of course she's going to be knightly Zero Saber felt like it was King Arthur. Maybe it wasn't what you wanted, but I think you're highly underrating Uro's job. |

That's why Kiritsugu went on that tirade, because he couldn't stand her. She was the head of the Round Table, so of course she's going to be knightly THERE'S NO FUCKING PERSONALITY SHIFT. She was "untouchable" because she chose to be. SHE DID NOT JUSTIFY IT BY HONOR. It was nothing more than an acceptable loss for her. A number. She did not fight for "honor" - she simply chose most efficient measures to unite her country, no matter how brutal it might be or how she would need to sacrifice innocents. She was NOT a "martyr" Her country simply turned against her and with a good reason. Because while benevolent and law-abiding, she WAS a dictator who never ever actually connected with her people. Alexander was Delusional Dictator Gilgamesh was Egoistical Dictator Saber was Unfeeling Benevolent Dictator. Her behavior in FSN is EXACT SAME as in her real life. Just with slip ups of goofy goofball girl that she had to hide. Zero Saber felt like it was King Arthur. King Arthur was not some higher-than-thou holy messiah second coming of jesus christ does no wrong god incarnate. King Arthur was a king stained with blood who did what was necessary in incredibly times of chaos and anarchy. A king whose methods, no longer fir his/her people during the peace time that came. A King that sacrificed thousands of innocent villages to rape and pillaging just so her army would be unscathed and win battles flawlessly efficiently. A King who was so untouchable and distant that it might as well be an unfeeling machine. A king who formed her country through blood and sacrifice and then had to kill her country with her own hands when it turned against her. Yeah, no. There was absolutely NOTHING in fourth war barring Zerker that could affect her. She did hold grudges for Kerry |
