and you should kill yourself for defending fate zero and urofaggot cockMy Dearest Worm38,
It grieves me to convey such sentiments, but I must confess that your recent pronouncements regarding the Fate series, and indeed, the esteemed gentlemen Urobuchi and Nasu, have struck me with a profound sense of bewilderment. To employ such vitriol, such ... unseemly language, to express one's opinions is, in itself, a most curious phenomenon. It is as if one were to describe a particularly vexing puzzle with the clamour of a marketplace brawl.
You speak of "shock value" and "edginess" with a vehemence that suggests a deep personal affront. While I concede that certain narratives may lean towards the dramatic, and perhaps even the melancholic, to label them as mere "tragedy-porn" or to decry them as "dogshit" seems a rather ... blunt instrument for literary critique. One might, with greater finesse, observe that the authors in question appear to favour a certain dramatic intensity, a penchant for exploring the darker corners of human motivation and the often-unpleasant consequences of grand ideals.
Your characterisation of Kiritsugu, for instance, as a "manchild" with a "stupid ideal" and a "boring personality" is indeed a stark portrayal. You lament his reliance on "asspulls" and "special abilities," a perspective not entirely dissimilar to one's frustration when a particularly cunning chess move appears to come from nowhere. Yet, is it not the very nature of narrative to present characters who, through their unique attributes and often tragic circumstances, drive the plot forward? Perhaps the "contrived edgy backstory" you dismiss is, in the eyes of others, a profound exploration of the burdens carried by those who wield great power or bear immense responsibility.
The "banquet of faggots," as you so colourfully term it, or as others might more delicately refer to as the "Banquet of Kings," seems to have ignited a particular ire within you. To dismiss philosophical discourse as "wikipedia-tier garbage" is a rather dismissive, if not outright impolite, assessment. While I myself might find prolonged debates on abstract concepts taxing during a particularly engaging tale, to deny their potential for enriching a narrative, or indeed, for sparking thought in the minds of the audience, would be a disservice.
And then, we arrive at Saber. To describe her as an "emo self-loathing whore" is a descriptor so jarring, so utterly devoid of the delicate nuances one might expect in a discussion of character, that it leaves one quite breathless. Is it possible that what you perceive as "self-loathing" is, in fact, the profound internal struggle of a warrior queen burdened by the weight of her choices and the perceived failings of her reign?
My dear Worm38, your passion is undeniable, your vocabulary, while perhaps unconventional, is certainly expansive. However, in your fervent condemnation, you seem to have overlooked the very essence of what makes these stories, and indeed, all stories, so compelling: the ability to evoke strong emotions, to provoke thought, and to offer different interpretations. While your own views are, shall we say, emphatically stated, it is a shame that such a torrent of expletives has drowned out any potential for a more reasoned, albeit still passionate, discourse.
Yours in bewilderment,
