#also wanted an achilles v astolfo episode

[fou-and-foue]

admit it.

fate apocrypha was good but some of you people don’t know how to properly appreciate a plot that isn’t entirely character driven

but you were also the one who decided to watch it in the english dub rather than the french dub

which is far superior

#fate series #fate apocrypha #fate #karna v seigfried was a spectacle to behold btw #i kind of wish that achilles could have gotten more character development #though i wish that everyone had more screen time too #hence a plot driven story #also wanted an achilles v astolfo episode #you guys don’t appreciate semiramis enough and that’s a fact #the nibelungenlied is such an amazing legend #if you haven’t read that go do it now because it’s absolutely amazing #was shakespeare annoying? 1000%. did i still love him? 1000% #yeah that’s probably what reduced the quality of the series #because it ran so so quickly #they tried to establish an entire setting and like twenty major character interactions and plot in only six hundred minutes of screen time #not to mention the intro and credits at all #or even all the longer scenes for effect and ability (ahem karna and siegfried) #but oh does the story have grandeur because it wasn’t afraid to do squat like okay they’re all op and they fight to the death go crazy #last thing you need to give the semiramis v mordred fight WAY more credit than it gets because the theatrics they employed for that scene #was absolutely AMAZING not even to mention the amount of RESEARCH they needed to do i mean aLLONS #my posts

[empty-dream]

Me watching Fate/Apocrypha ep 11

Atalanta the smug cat nee-san

“I’m not gonna hurt you. Not me, anyway.” Atalanta are you trying to be Kiritsugu 2.0?

Hurt? More like, NUKE.

Spartacus hulking out

Atalanta be like “You know what? One last touch and all is well and you’re ready to go!” then shoot just one arrow out of spite.

Atalanta: “It’s your problem now” Jeanne: “Wait what?” Atalanta: “Atalanta signing out. Bye. TTYL. Peace out, holy maiden whatever!”

Spartacus is basically the best worst masochist ever.

He’s like a damn cat getting distracted by whatever moving lights and goes pursuing it

Granted, it ain’t THE best fight in the whole series but I feel really disappointed Balmung vs Clarent Blood Arthur doesn’t get more screentime....

Sieg!Fried’s biceps O_O

Mordred: “HOW ARE YOU FUCKING ALIVE I BLASTED YOU WITH THE POWER OF DADDY ISSUES AND MY DADDY IS FUCKING STRONG AND SHITTY YOU ARE AN INSULT TO MY SHITTY DADDY”

Does Mordred love or hate her dad? Don’t waste any time deciding when the real answer is both and see it’s fucked up.

Discount Saber? Discount Saber??!! Are you fucking serious that’s a hilarious trash talk!

Another continuation of Bitchface Karna vs Uncle Vlad

Why is there a very strange sound effect like evil bubble sound effect when Vlad’s spearhead clash directly with Karna’s???

I get the feel like Karna vs Vlad is Fate/Apocrypha equivalent to Westley vs Inigo from The Princess Bride except haughtier and a tad bit crueler.

dID KARNA JUST SMILE A BIT?!!

Karna you should ask Artoria that ‘do it for love of your country or for king’s responsibility?’ she will have existential crisis.

Why should he be scared of fighting a whole country alone when he has a spear that can kill A GOD?

Vlad: “You have fallen... INTO MY TRAP!”

And then Karna stylishly becomes a pincushion. Stylishly, mind you.

Um I still don’t know if explaining your power to the enemy is a wise move Vlad..

Wow flying snake-like spears

Karna be like “I’m the son of sun God. Hot And Burns Everything.”

He looks like a kamen rider.

Vlad, cornered and excited: “Interesting”

Darnic be judging them so hard like “These stupid heroes with their stupid chivalry bravados”

Spartacus loves rebellion so much I want to give him a copy of Madoka Rebellion story

Did I tell you Spartacus is the best worst masochist ever?

Shakespeare is still at it again

Shakespeare: “Behold. A great fucked up thing created by me fucking things up”

Semiramis I know your noble phantasm is glorious af but not everyone have anti gravity giant ancient fortress

I’ve got a question: Why Spartacus looks way paler than his comrades? Not paler as in human skin, but you know, as in a fucking rock you see on the road.

Tbh I am not even fazed if Shakespeare turns out liking to get off at citing his own works.

“MY FIST IS LOVE. ACCEPT MY LOVE.” Holy shit this sounds like what an abusive person would say.

Spartacus I thought you were a masochist why are you turning into a sadist

Jeanne running be like “NOPE THANKS I’VE GOT PLENTY OF LOVE MYSELF”

Seriously he’s distracted by some bright light moving in the distance. What is he? A cat?

Geez Mordred do you hear what your own cakehole says? Are you pretty sure you just hate your dad?

HAHA SIEG!FRIED's CHEST IS GLOWING ON AND OFF THAT IS SOME ULTRAMAN SHIT

Wait but for as long as I remember everytime I watched Ultraman as a kid the hero always runs out of energy and that jewel goes “TING TONG TING TONG”

Sieg!Fried = Ultraman holy shit I just cracked the conspiracy theory

So Higashide’s original idea was to have Sieg!Fried glitters on the chest area but scrapped it and now it’s back and oN SCREEN

Spartacus is indeed the originator of Hit them when they gloat

No Mordred that’s a fucking terrible idea to slice him in half not everything is solved by slicing!

Wow I just realized Spartacus swallowed form facing off Mordred is a bit like Gilles swallowed form facing off Artoria back in Fate/Zero wow

Jeanne: “I didn’t face Vlad and his entire squad to get you out of this war for this”

Astolfo acts like the student who defends his friend when they cause huge fuck up and faces a raging teacher which is Jeanne

Well for a majority of time, Astolfo is kinda a child so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Um I don’t get why he’s saying that? If he was a Ruler? Fuck that even as a Rider he ain’t gonna leave Sieg. And sure as hell Jeanne won’t leave him too. Is Astolfo thinking Jeanne will leave Sieg? On what ground?? It ain’t really like Astolfo???

Though I aspire to grin right after spitting arguments like he does

There is an entire concept deeper than the ocean at the words “I won’t let a hero like you to harm innocent people”

Tvtropes dubs Luminosite Eternelle as a child's “I block your everything” imagination but without the imagination part and that’s the best description I’ve ever seen about it

Oh look a deformed rogue servant facing off against another golden lady with golden weapon and golden light

Power of love vs Power of imagination

Sieg looking at Ruler tanking a nuke: ❤

Wow that’s some game breaker shield alright

I’d behave exactly like Astolfo if I was on that condition too

Back at Uncle Vlad commanding spike snakes to stab the literal hottie Bitchface Karna

Karna: GYOKAKU NO JUTSU!! Me: WRONG ANIME!!!

You ever seen that meme about everyone making crazy ass face when pulling gyokaku no jutsu but not the graceful Itachi? Yeah Karna is also fucking graceful too

Slicing fire with the tip of the sword. #justvladthings

Vlad is probably the only person who doesn’t like being saved by the bell

You want a Holy Grail? STEAL IT OF COURSE. FROM ABOVE. ALIEN STYLE. #justredfactionthing

Ain’t fighting the holy grail war if you steal it. -Shirou Kotomine at some point

Yeah this is not the only hardship you’ve faced in a century Darnic but is there even any hardship that resembles ‘ancient babylonian fortress kidnaps your holy grail a la UFO’??

PANIC! AT THE YGGDMILLENNIA

Eveybody’s busy but not Celenike she doesn’t give a flying fuck.

The only thing I like about Celenike is her hairstyle. That’s my daily hairstyle. First time I see it I be like oh cool a character with my hairstyle and then she turns out to be sadist pedo witch and I’m like NOPE

Wait a minute why are you not showing Caules :(( Is it because he isn’t a master anymore :((( ?? He’s still crying isn’t he???? :((((

Darnic: V E R Y A N G R Y M O D E

Jeanne: “I’m still angry. So after this I’ll lecture the fuck out of you.” Sieg: “Um okay. I’ll be waiting.” Jeanne: ❤

There is something really funny about Vlad, the de facto captain and royalty, running around a la spy on enemies lair.

Not shown: 5 minutes of Scooby Doo doors chase between Black Faction and the AKA Team

Karna: “I was rude before but since it’s not yet 10 minutes and we meet again, I don’t have to apologize, right?”

“I will make sure to impale you this time.” UMM VLAD

HAHA Avicebron holds that gem with the Sailor Moon pose I can’t unsee it

IN THE NAME OF GOLEM I WILL PUNISH YOU

Achilles: “WHAT did you just throw me?! You’re an Archer!” Chiron: “Boy, nowadays the class Archer means nothing about archery”

OOOO KARNA HOLY SHIT THAT WAS SOME SAVAGE BURNNNN funny that he’s polite about it and 99.99% sure he doesn’t even mean to burn

Hanging Garden of Babylon is just too op

I bet Darnic puts “Professional asskisser” as skill and/or job on his resume

Vlad: “Don’t make me use Legend of Dracula” Darnic: “dOn’T MaKE mE USe LeGeND oF dRaCUlA”

There is something a bit satisfying with Sieg’s command spells and that bright background and the title Eternal Radiance (obviously referring to Jeanne)

But I still wonder what is the essence of changing the title template like I know it means Sieg is finally Sieg!Fried. So what?

Gotta be honest: I love hearing that main battle soundtrack again. Absence in one/two episodes is enough. 

I’ve always loved the idea of Luminosite Eternelle but the utilization is always so simple like I thought flag waving will be more involved

NEXT: Being Lancer is suffering indeed.
