Blog,YT reviews,live reactions,fan translations,site reviews etc.I dont think either of these exist solely because people think they can help others.


The CG label kind of betrays that. Never underestimate some people's willingness to make themselves look like the harbingers of justice or fairness.

I dont think that "Priest beatdowns" have anything to do with justice or fairness tho...

You got a point. I mean, we do it cause we get a kick out of it, right?

I guess I'm being too pessimistic.

Oh that's another issue that was discussed a while ago.

What happens is we identify a part of ourselves in things that we like (be it a movie, show, book, or anything). So in a way, what we like becomes an extension of ourselves.

So when someone attacks what we like, we perceive it as an attack against us personally. That's why we all get a knee-jerk reaction when hearing criticisms of something we genuinely like.

I am not feeling attacked when someone makes constructive criticism. It's the dumb complaints, that irritate me. Like saying FZ is better written than FSN because in FSN Ilya calls Shirou "onii-chan".

Alright.

Then take what I put above about our preferences being extensions of ourselves. The difference is that in this case, we perceive attacks against what we like as not paying proper respects or giving what we like (in this case FSN) the consideration we think it rightfully deserves.

So in this case, perceived attacks are not the issue; the feeling that one is being disrespected is internalized.

I dont even know what that means.


You think that viewers finding problems with the motives and thought process of the characters is legit criticism for the lack of monologues ONLY BECAUSE it reinforces your argument.What you intentionally ignore is that they ignore and fail to notice EVERYTHING ELSE as well.That makes your argument invalid.It's not a problem of missing monologues, it is a problem with how much they can use their brain, how much they can pay attention and how biased they are.

And please the only criticisms you agree with are the ones that match yours(bashing FZ to make FSN look better ,bashing Kajiura,bashing Urobuchi for the story of FZ although you were one of those of us who kept telling everyone that Nasu was guiding him etc).

Well.....If you must know, go to the F/Z board (not second season) and the thread "Why is Fate/Zero so much different from Fate/Stay Night", especially from page 3 or so with Wolfteamhacks/glaurungX. And who can forget Wakamehead and the "F/Z is shitty" argument?

I genuinely want to see how many people call Archers reveal an asspull or don't even see it coming with how many hints episode 12 will give them.

That is called watching but not seeing.They are dumb.

Isn't that more because some of those people are stupid, and they don't know how to pay attention to the hints? I mean they're pretty blatantly obvious. Even me with my ADHD catches on to them, it shouldn't be that hard for someone who actually pays attention.

Going by neogaf argumentation "sure there are things that would be interpreted at hints of PTSD, but that does not matter since he is generic shonen character so its not true"

They probably also forgot that Tokiomi used Command Spell to stop Gilgamesh from using Gate of Babylong, and Kayneth used his own to force Diarmud to attack Saber then recalled that order...
But that's completely fine because they're adults and Shirou and Rin are stupid kids, rajt?

To be honest they could have made the situation surrounding the use of Shirou's second command seal look more dire. In hindsight it was the right move but they could have added like 5+ Skellingtons.

They knew that Rider was the cause of "weird eye thing" so summoning Saber makes sense even if there were Skeletons.

Subjective.

Saber acts EXACTLY like she did when she was with Iri.IN FSN there is no Kiritsugu or Iskandar to make her be on edge every time she thinks about them.

What's so special about him? Archer?
Maybe there's a good back story presented in VN, but as far as the show goes, there's really nothing outstanding about him.

Personally, and don't get offended by it, I really don't think i'd be watching this show it wasn't a sequel to F/Z (which it hardly seems it is - a stand alone seems better).

Well, he will later proceed to shit on all the honor and pride bullshit F/Z kept throwing at you so maybe they won't like him for long.

Unless they disliked the honor and pride stuff, then he becomes a true hero for them.
