For the love of god please tell me there is more to Fate/Zero than just light novels and a soundtrack.

>> No.1150759

There's a drama cd, it's shit though.

>> No.1150765

If they animated F/Z it would probably be the greatest thing since KnK

Is it worth reading? On a similar note, how is Fate/hollow ataraxia

Not really. from what I've read it wasn't that good.
Not like KnK was awesome though.

Fate/Zero is better than Fate/Stay Night in that the servants are almost all fucking awesome. Fate/Hollow Ataraxia is okay... its strange but the CGs are great.

>> No.1150918

>>1150782
KnK sucks, even Nasu said so. DDD might be better, but the beginning certainly isn't so I haven't made it past the second chapter.

I've only read the first volume of Fate/Zero, but it's pretty good, and at least Urobuchi Gen can write like a normal coherent person, unlike Nasu. I'm not going to say anything about the actual content of what Nasu writes, but most of his prose is terrible.

The servants seemed to be a lot stronger compared to their F/SN counterparts. I shat bricks when Gil used Gates of Babylon against Berserker, only to have them grab the swords out of the air and throw them back at him.

I still can't understand why a person from another studio would want to write something for a company he has no contract with.

thats because in FS/N someone manipulated it so that it should wind up being a one sided grail war for himself.

What? In terms of powerlevels:

4th Archer <=? 5th Archer
4th Lancer < 5th Lancer
4th Rider < 5th Rider (in terms of NP)
4th Caster < 5th Caster
4th Berserker < 5th Berserker (Lancelot will probably run out of mana before exhausting 12 NPs)
4th Assassin =? 5th True Assassin

Sorry but there was a thread on Rider vs Rider just a few days back and no one even supported Alex. Anti-army NP always wins an NP that summons an army.

Wasn't Archer's noble phantasm the most suited to rape Gil ?
In terms of power he wasn't very strong but had the upper hand due to UBW didn't he ?

lol Shirou defeated Gil, Berserker and Saber. This means that Shirou > All Servants, since the rest had been defeated by those 3 at some point.

I forgot Shirou also defeated Archer.

>> No.1151568

4th Archer > 5th Archer (Generally speaking, Gates of Babylon and UBW are pretty equal, but Ea is freaking cheating)

4th Lancer < 5th Lancer (Cuchulain was made for fighting, Diarmuid was not)

4th Rider = 5th Rider (Both of them contrast eachother quite a bit, ultimately leveling out)

4th Caster = 5th Caster (In terms of raw power Bluebeard FAR surpasses Medea, however, Medea is much better at planning ahead)

4th Berserker = 5th Berserker (Given a decent supply of mana, Lancelot is by far the most powerful Servant in existence, but a war of attrition against Heracles is going to be a tough one)

4th Assassin = 5th True Assassin (One on one, Sasaki is just about always going to win unless it's against one of the Berserkers. If Hassan-i-Sabah gets the drop on you you're pretty much fucked always, and they seem to be very good at doing that)

>> No.1151570

>>1151234
why does noone ever talk about DDD? It sounds interesting and it's actually Nasu writing this one. Did it just not do well or something?

oh, and Fate/Zero needs an anime. It's pretty much perfect for it, and noone will bitch about combined scenarios.

I wish they'd give Fate/Zero to ufotable and do the same kind of thing they did like with KNK.

I really doubt thare's more than a handful of Anons on /jp/ who've read it, and plenty probably don't even know it exists.

It's not much linked to Nasu's other stuff (I think?) and then the only people I've ever seen give it much praise seemed to be Nasu fanboys. It starts out with lots of typical boring discussion about DEEP philosophy + exposition, and although I think it gets better later, I will never make it that far. I must admit I liked the first page though, where the main character wakes up to find some girl eating his arm.

Does it turn out to be a trap?

I'm pretty sure DDD is part of the Nasuverse, or at least I think it is. It deals with demonic possession, right?

>> No.1151726

>>1151704
The trap is a guy with no arms or legs who the main character works for doing stuff that it's hard to do when you have no arms or legs.

I'm 99% sure the girl at the beginning is actually a girl.

>>1151711
I don't think it's in the same world as Fate and Tsukihime.

lol, I don't know why I'm answering questions about something I've only read 30 odd pages of.

>> No.1151767

>>1151726

Hey, Kara no Kyoukai is also part of the Nasuverse, hence the whole "Ryogi - Asakami - Fujou - Nanaya” group of Japanese demon hunting families and the character material stating Soren's respect for Roa. When DDD is translated it’s entirely possible that we’ll find some connections to the rest of the Nasuverse just like we did with Rakkyo.

>> No.1151770

>>1151711
Everything made by Nasu is part of the Nasuverse. He will always find something stupid to connect them altogether since he loves doing so.

Also, let's not forget DDD isn't a Type-moon work. It's just a book. Same with KnK, but people later came up with "might be connected with Tsukihime" just to pump the popularity but in the truth it was just a story he came up with since highschool days and later on decided to write Tsukihime based on the same idea.

Well, yeah, I guess it's somewhere between those two, though the Buffyverse and the Cthulhu Mythos are on entirely different sides of the spectrum in terms of originality and media. Yeah, I can see where you're coming from. It really does takes a middle ground betwixt them, doesn't it?
