/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Reserved, loyal, dutiful, excellent fighter. Also wears formal clothing.

Bland moe.

King of England moe~

Blond foreigner.

What ISN'T her appeal?

She's feminine yet modest, eternal thirteen year old body, has a cute attitude towards foods, strong, honest, beautiful, and trustworthy. How she is girlish without trying to be or even realizing herself that she is. How she has all the best qualities a man could have or would want to have for himself, carried with the grace of a woman.

tl;dr: Perfection

Blond foreigner moe, just like Bumstead.

Obligatory

>>1658777
>tl;dr: Perfection
Too good for this world.

I think its the body frame

>>1658792
Indeed.

Here's hoping her wait for Shirou in Avalon wasn't too long.

>>1658751
I have strong feelings towards loyal characters.
Not to mention that Saber is fucking awesome. And hot.

during the F/SN animu i didn't particularly like seiiibaaaa. I mean, don't get me wrong, she was cool, but meh.... mediocre show was mediocre.

However, playing the game, she's right up there with Rin in my list.

Best is that she doesn't let shirou get away with shit so much.... beatings in the dojo are awesome.

>>1659176
The semi-bad end where Saber kills you for not making lunch is fuck awesome.

High potential for Monty Python references.

Agrias thread?

>tl;dr: Perfection
Pretty much. The problem is that she can be called perfect objectively, the subjective part is in whether you like perfection. Some people only like women for their faults. For example, in Tsukihime, people liked Hisui because she was emotionally broken (a.k.a. kuudere), Kohaku because she was mentally disturbed (a.k.a. yandere), Akiha because she had a conflicting prideful and emotional nature (a.k.a. tsundere) and Sacchin because she was just a complete failure. All these followed the typical path of being moe due to their faults. Then there's the Saber of Tsukihime, Arcueid, who was mostly only liked by those who prefers perfect women to "broken" women.

tl;dr: Saber doesn't have any faults, for some this makes her really appealing, while others wouldn't be able to relate to this appeal at all.

>>1659213
>people liked Ciel because of her failure as a heroine (Shitdere).

YOU'RE RIGHT

>>1659213
You could say her over-developed sense of responsibility is a fault. After sacrificing her life for a pisspoor country that never really appreciated her, she tries to further help them by getting herself stuck in an endless loop that will never allow her to die. Not perfect in my eyes.

>>1659232
BUT THAT IS NOT MOE

>>1659232
This is why I must reward my considerate Servant
;_;

She's an exotic foreigner who isn't threatening because her sense of chivalry also makes her observe decorum and social graces, yet has many easily exploitable 'moe buttons' to press. (her stuffed lion, her food, intolerance to cheap tactics)

Basically, she's a japanese girl in a gaijin's body.

>>1658796

what?

Arc is Innocence But Powerful Moe, not Perfect Moe.

>>1659467
protip:
FSN and FHA aren't the end of Saber/Shirou.

She is british, and therefore better than everything.

Also, 2D.

>>1659511
Am I the only one who wanted her to take his blood, then become an evil team?

Shiki could have been seriously badass as a vampire.

Gluttony is a sin

>>1659548
The Saber doujins are the best thing I've ever read, and I've always been more a fan of Rin.
In this case, moe trumps tsundere.

Eh, I kinda prefer Arc though. Saber just felt even more shallow in comparison.

Saber? Arc?
Here's a REAL character.

>>1659575
Why isn't she wearing panties?

liek arcade bumstead, amirite?

>>1659643
Easier access.

>Curry addiction

>A number of studies have claimed that the reaction of pain receptors to the hotter ingredients in curries, even Korma, leads to the body's release of endorphins and combined with the complex sensory reaction to the variety of spices and flavours, a natural high is achieved that causes subsequent cravings, often followed by a desire to move on to hotter curries. Some refer to this as addiction, but other researchers contest the use of the word "addiction" in this instance.[11] Additionally, curry addiction is an example of a colloquial use of the word "addiction" as the medical definition of the word requires continued use despite harmful effects.[citation needed] Since medicine has not shown harmful effects of curry consumption, the use of the word "addiction" is contestable.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curry

Is 'Currydere' a word?

What's with the hate for Ciel?

I don't see it.

She was the only route I liked in the Near-Side route.

>>1659676
KareDere

>>1659692
The route itself is fine.

>>1659700

Like I said. I just don't see the hate for Ciel.

Arcueid was okay but she wasn't that interesting in my opinion.

>>1659707
Hell if I know. There isn't really anything I like about Ciel though, I much prefer any of the other characters over her. All the other characters have something that makes them likable (to me, anyway).

>>1659676
jap curry isn't spicy, though

>>1659707
She tries to compete with Ramnstein Dumbledore for the 'heroine' trophy and fails miserably. That and the fact that she's an annoying, backstabber bitch.

No offense.

>>1659213
>Sacchin
>complete failure

You, Sir, have completely failed to understand her character.

>>1659729

I didn't think she was annoying.

And yeah she was a backstabber, but after I got to when she can't kill Shiki and started crying, my hate dissolved into like.

And then the true ending made me love her.

To be honest, my favourite characters are Sacchin and Sakura.

>>1659729
how did she ever backstab? For god's sake, all of her actions were usually for the greater good, and/or trying somehow to save Shiki's ass.

I mean hell, she probably did the most for that guy in Akiha's route than she ever did in her own. Poor bitch.

>>1659735
She might have been a failure as a vampire, but she was a success as a character.

>>1658751
Yuri appeal.

>>1659748

I can deal Sacchin. But you sir, fail for liking Sakura as well.

CORRECT SOLUTION TO EVERYTHING:
FUCK THEM ALL
FUCK
THEM
ALL

>>1659772

Harem ending.

>>1659764
I still don't understand why she's so unpopular.. I mean, she's a very likeable character and I also do not understand the whole SEIBA SEIBA SEIBA SEIBA craze.. there's really nothing extremely special about her. She's cool and all, but nothing worth the worshipping she receives.

>>1659790

Are you kidding me?

Have you seen the amount of Sakurafags on /jp/?

Thank god we have Rinfags and Saberfags to counteract them or I'd go insane.

Sakura is disliked because she is a slut.

A yandere slut.

We already have a superior yandere, her name is Illyasviel von Einzbern. We didn't need another one. Especially one who served no purpose to the story until HF.

>>1659804
Ilya is not a yandere.

>>1659804
She's no slut
We have few Sakurafags
Superior Yandere is still Asakura Ryouko (Which is /jp/ related due to Light Novels)

>>1659825

Yes she is.

Saber likes her rice with a lot of protein.

>>1659804

Sacchin is superior yandere by far.

>>1659845
No she is not.
Not crazy or unstable, doesn't have a breaking point.putting a loving front to the one she likes.

You either agree with her or die, and she is pretty obvious about it.
Cruel child mentality.

>>1659752

Hahaha wow, a true pimp

Sakura just isn't particularly likable in her own route. It's mostly just her fainting, plotting to kill someone and then killing someone.

>>1659845
I don't think you know what how yandere really is, enjoy your ignorance.

ITT : People who don't know what a yandere is.

>>1659855
>You either agree with her or die, and she is pretty obvious about it.

Superior yandere

>>1659891
Doesn't count.
She was inversing and influenced by Roa, maybe she subconsciously felt like that, but sure as hell she would've never gone so far.

>>1659891
SHIKI IS THE CHAIR NOOOOO

<i>You either agree with her or die, and she is pretty obvious about it.
Cruel child mentality.</i>

How many times did she threaten to kill Shiro if he didn't agree with her?

>>1659891

That not her true self, she snapped because of the demon blood

>>1659909
7. And she actually turns him into a doll.

>>1659891
Very ,very specific circumstances on one route.
She does want him to stay home etc, but only in Kohaku's route does she snap.
In the others she gets mostly pissed off.

What exactly is Tomoyo's appeal?

>>1659909
If Ilya acted like a yandere she would've moved in Shirou's house by using her "oniiii chaaan ^_^" charm.
Then she would proceed to either kill or threathen every female person that lived with him, Taiga included.
Then she would mark her territory by never losing his sight while at school, probably to the point of transfering there as a student, or plainly denying him to go there.
Finally she would butcher all others masters except Shirou to get the grail and obtain a normal life, in order to live happily with him.

Also yanderes never hurts the people they love, unless they're delirious.

>>1659955

Best Waifu

>>1659955
Having Clannaids

>>1659955
A very damn nice and gentle girl, that cannot behave/act like a usual one would do.
Plus, devoted wife.

>>1659955
Strongest waifu.

>>1659963
Too bad Key felt that a happy end was too much for them and decided to force some drama by making an entirely new game.
Assholes...

A better question is, why the hell hasn't Rider gotten a path in Fate/Stay Night?

>>1659955
Strongest
likes anal
no emotional problems
very capable and responsible
will still wake you up and cook for you

Ie, perfect waifu that also doubles as amazing bodyguard.

>>1660037
Why hasn't Gilgamesh x Lancer gotten a path in Fate/Stay Night?

>>1660047
Fate route...

>>1660047
>>1660037
Why hasn't Rider x Saber x Rin gotten a path yet?

>>1660037
Because Ayako is the one she really wants.

My opinion of Saber changed dramatically after discovering fakku, and deleting all my 3d porn.

Now she is the best, by far.

>>1660037
Because Rider sucks

I hated Saber till the UBW route where she left without even saying goodbye.


Then it hit me what it was like every time for her.

;_;

>>1660288

Pretty much.

HF ruined her for me.

Especially with Bellerohameha.

>>1660288
Anon, card etc.

>>1660288
0/10
Good try, though.

>>1660319
see
>>1660319

Does anyone have that pic of Ciel standing up holding a pistol or something with an AK-47 slung over her shoulder?

I lost it somehow and I can't find it anywhere on my PC.

>>1660410
confusing
>>1659854
protein-rich diet

>>1660466
This one?

>King of England
YOU DRUNK IRISH FUCK

>What exactly is the appeal of TypeMoon heroines?

Its the girl the protagonist couldn't save. No matter how much he tried, she still went on to accomplish her goal in her own way, and never had any regrets.

The protagonist (most likely) never forgets her for the rest of his life.
;_;

It's her love of the Holy Grail. It makes men tsundere for her.

Saber = kuudere
Rin = tsundere
Sakura = yandere

Nasu agreed, don't bother him about it.

>>1662230
"Sorry, Saber. You lost me."

I'd let him possess me.

>>1662598

Fuck.... How could someone not like Saber? She is the king.

>>1662598
Is it just me or does she look like Arcueid In the thumbnail?

>>1664633
It's you.
And anyone with bad sight or still unfamiliar with the characters
