I thought I could educate myself with some basic VN knowledge. Just a few questions to get me started:

1. How would you describe Tsukihime in short?
2. Are there any other forms of media about Tsukihime like manga or anime? Should I start with them instead?
3. How is it related to Fate/Stay Night?
4. What should I expect?
5. Your opinion of Tsukihime?
6. Anything else you would like to add?

>> No.3281338

>2. Are there any other forms of media about Tsukihime like manga or anime? Should I start with them instead?
There is an anime and you should watch it instead, it's superior in any way.
>6. Anything else you would like to add?
Fuck off.

>> No.3281345

1. Genderswapped Twilight
2. Yes, anime is horrible, manga is alright.
3. Same world and timeline, different town.
4. A lot of bad ends, most of them out of the left field.
5. Alright but nothing to write home about
6. Read Saya no Uta.

>> No.3281346

1. Twilight
2. Yes. No.

1. its some crazy shit about vampires, magic and hidden mistery stuff
2. anime has beautiful stills, good stuff
3. expect similar magic and weirdness (story by that Nasu dude)
4. bad H-scenes, oldfashioned drawing
5. good but not as smooth as FSN

Should I watch Twilight to learn more about Tsukihime?

>> No.3281371

Just go and play it.
Seriously.
The only thing that you need to know is the route order
Arcueid > Ciel > Akiha > Hisui > Kohaku
Great VN, enjoy it bro.

>> No.3281382

1. great to kill time, its a good read.
2. depends, if u started with the two and still coundnt get enough, vn is still good.
3. the universe settings is the same.
4. dunno
5. its definitely a good vn to start.
6. better play with an alternative custom soundtrack, the original sucks.

>> No.3281376

1. Fuckwin vamps and church and imouto and maids (mostly Hisui).
2. Manga is good.
3. Same background, technically different worlds.
4. GOING TO BE KILLED, BY ME.
5. I like it.
6. /jp/ is full of fuckers.

>> No.3281384

1. Guy kills stuff with knife and meets supernatural shit
2. Manga and anime, but just go with the manga.
3. Same timeline, just different locations.
4. Bad ends, guy rapes shit with a knife.
5. It's alright, but there's plenty of better VNs out there. If you want to get into the Nasuverse (all of Type-Moon's work), go and start with this.
6. Did I mention bad ends?

>> No.3281392

No, read the books, but mentally replace all instances of Edward with a feminine name and Isabella with your name. Also pretend Edward is a loli.

Twilight suddenly becomes readable when you add a stalker loli vampire.

Isn't it sad, Arcade Bumstead is fine too.

Yes, and it's shit.

Shiki can kill servants.

Anyone who doesn't play all the routes missing out on additional character development, exposition and understanding is a fucktard, since no character is properly done only in it's own route.

Finish Hisui before uninstallan. I didn't even like her before it, but afterwards she became one of my favourite heroines.

1. Long but it has it's moments that make it worth it
2. Read the VN only, screw the rest
3. Not much to say here
4. Good writing, frustration, overall a good read
5. Shiki's the only thing worth reading it for
6. Skip through the scenes

What. The manga is good. Everyone that likes the visual novel should read it.

When they finally make an anime, it will also be good.

>> No.3281593

>>3281586
The manga is a slight remix of Arc's route in the end, you should just do the Whole VN regardless.

>> No.3281594

>>3281586
Manga = arc route isn't it...which is probably the second worst route in the game overall. Not bad, but that alone would miss out a ton of the things that made Tsukihime good.

>> No.3281604

the manga is great after you've read the vn because it adds content to the vn.

but the manga without the vn content seems horribly put together.

I'm not saying "in lieu of" the visual novel. I'm saying you should read both. What part of my comment would seem to imply that you shouldn't read the visual novel?

And it's not "just" the Arc route. There's lots of other things that make it good, so far.

The only good thing about the manga is the Nero fight, everything else is horrible.

I'm just saying there's no real reason to read the manga, the VN probably has everything in it anyways. And more detailed at that, too.

Manga has better action representations of scenes, better flow in places, and expounds upon some interesting stuff, like SHIKI and Shiki's relationship before SHIKI inverted.

It's worth reading, and I must assume you just don't know enough about what happens in it to make a valid claim otherwise. If you read it and don't like it, then you can say it's not worth reading.

You'll still be wrong, but at least you have a position to stand on.

I read it up to a little after Nero, didn't seem much different. I guess if you want to see the fights the manga's good. Fair enough.

>> No.3281652

1. Just play it
2. Tons, no.
3. Same Nasu and character Takeuchi, but Tsukihime was released back when Typemoon was still doujin and Takeuchi does his own coloring, they couldn't afford to do proper background art back then for instance, so it's much lower budget.
4. lower budgets than in Fate, it's also shorter, some pretty shitty art (especially for animals) by takeuchi, but ultimately Nasu presents an immersive and gripping universe and takeuchi makes lovable characters.
5. As in Fate, takeuchi presents some appalling art, but the designs are solid and if you have any appreciation for the Fate series or typemoon, tsukihime is of course mandatory.
6. Please don't listen to any opinions or arguments made by members of this or any other internet community, never believe Anonymous, and please refrain from making threads like this in the future.

Oh wait, I forgot to add that you should try some of the alternative music for the game that's out there, as the default music is insuficient, Mirror Moon provides the resources for this, but I used a quieter piano tune from one of the cd's suggested for track 07 because it fits the variety of scenes in which it is employed better than the original replacement.
anyway you'll figure this out.

1. Boring.
2. There is a manga and an anime.
3. It's not. Fate Stay is another series.
4. Slow plot development.
5. It's better as a fighting game.
6. The H scenes are below average.
