Why is Sakura so overpowered?
Because she is best girl. The poll ranking really pissed you so much that you had to make a thread?
>Defeats Rin
lmao
>Makes senpai notice her
Through pity
>Kills Gilgamesh
That was the shadow
>Gets a happy ending
Not if I am playing Fate. Normal end is the true canon.
>lmao
Sakura is the only one left standing after she fights Rin, so she won.
>Through pity
Not really. Shirou abandons all of his ideals in order to save her.
>That was the shadow
Sakura is the Shadow. Shirou can tell intuitively before he even knows what's going on.
>Not if I am playing Fate. Normal end is the true canon.
Boo.
>so she won.
After Rin lets her lol.
>Not really. Shirou abandons all of his ideals in order to save her.
He does after he situation blows up, so yeah because of pity.
>Sakura is the Shadow.
Only when you Sakurafags feel like it.
>boo
She sucks.
Shirou picks her over his ideal because he's completely in love with her. If he weren't then he wouldn't pick her over his ideals, it's really that simple.
>After Rin lets her lol.
She still won. If I followed your logic I could still say Sakura defeated Rin because she could have killed her when she showed up at Shirou's house, but let her live.
>He does after he situation blows up, so yeah because of pity.
He does it the same night the dichotomy of 'saving Sakura vs. saving his ideals' manifests.
>Only when you Sakurafags feel like it.
I'm not a Sakurafag.
>She sucks.
I agree.
>he's completely in love with her.
He fell in love because of the pity he felt, and he is a natural white knight.
Fate is shit.
>He fell in love
Yes he did. I'm glad we agree. As for the pity part, that's simply your own headcanon.
>Pity love
Alright if that's how you want your heroine to be wanted as.
>Gets a happy ending
This is the ending I left Fate/Stay Night on for a good 3 years
Slut genes
The pity part is simply a headcanon.
No. Shirou is a natural sword. And Sakura is his canon waifu.
>Shirou is a natural sword
Sakura is a natural sheath, so the speak
So when're they going to update the art for this shit?
For dickworms and Shinji cock perhaps. An on occasion Shirou cock.
The art is fine by VN standards
Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo???????????????????????????????????
So why go through the trouble of updating it when it doesn't need it?
Work slut
>Work slut
What did he mean by this?
>Kills Kotomine
I keep seeing people posting this but I distinctly remember a certain fist fight between Kirei and Shirou at the end.
Sakura stopped his heart, but he was able to survive for a short time afterwards. Shirou just had to outlast him until he died. The only person that caused him to die was Sakura.
Ah, right.

His genius is beyond my grasp.
They made it pretty clear that his body wasn't the only thing that was rotting. Dude was senile.
It's the womrs
>Only when you Sakurafags feel like it.
Someone clearly didn't pay attention when reading the VN.
Shiki could still kill her.
In the end, he was his own down fall.
>Shiki = Shirou and SHIKI=EMIYA
>we will never see the timeline where when Rin goes to the Clock Tower she has to deal with two smug ohohoing wrestle ojousamas, and Phoenix Emiya
This is the worst timeline
Ah, but she has Rider to protect her.
So... can Shiki kill servants?
>Fate: Shirou doesn't stop Saber from kicking EMIYA's ass, ruining Archer's plan.
>UBW: Shirou stops Saber from wrecking EMIYA, allowing him to put his plan into motion
>Heaven's Feel: Zouken meets Shirou when he walks Sakura home, so he activates True Assassin and the Shadow goes batshit?
I always feel stupid when I play through this part of the game, like I'm missing something about what changes in HF to make Zouken get off his ass instead of waiting for the Sixth HGW like in the other routes.

His genius is beyond my grasp.
Rin was better suited to Tohsaka rune magic, and neither Sakura or Rin were expected to be the next participants anyway, since the grail normally takes 60 years to refill
Jewel magic, rather
Zouken doesn't know that Sakura has a huge crush on Shirou until he meets him. Once he knows that he thinks he can use her feelings towards Shirou and Rin against her to break her (Because 11 years of worm torture didnt).
IIRC the difference is that Zouken was trying to agitate Sakura emotionally in order to get her involved (like in that intermission flashback where he tells her Rin will probably win), and in HF Shirou gets closer to her, which triggers the shit that happens to her. I may be misremembering.
Zouken tells Sakura about how Rin has the best chance of winning and getting everything she wants. Then Rin starts stepping on Sakura's territory by getting closer to Shirou (she finds out Rin was at his house, Rin makes him have lunch with her on the rooftop while Sakura was waiting for him in the archery club) and the shadow grows.
I always found it funny how affable Zouken feels when you first meet him compared to what you end up with
Sometimes you should just judge a book by its cover.
I find it funny how pure and innocent Sakura feels when you first meet her compared to what you end up with.
That scene where she shows shirow her pooci and then jumps on shiro dick is p. good
Is that Kurosaki Ichigo?
Power is equal to tit size. And Sakura has massive mammaries.
Sakura falls in love with Shiro.
Unable to confess, the wormslut is gifted by a deus ex machina with the boy's phone number. Never minding the strange area code, she immediately calls him, and is overjoyed to find out that he has a crush on her as well.
But, the next day, when the educated prostitute recounts the previous day's confessions to the boy, he only looks at her with a perplexed expression. After some investigation, she finds out that the boy she called is not the same boy she fell in love with. In fact, he doesn't exist in this universe at all. He is the alternate universe counterpart of her crush, who has fallen in love with her AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of his crush.
Hijinks ensue as they strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip each other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of FISH.
>Sakur-Ai! Because, you know, she's Sakura and it's a love story. Get it, get it?
FINDS
Tokiomi gives Sakura away for questionable reasons in all universes. Capsule Servant established this.
>why is Angry Manjew so overpowered?
FTFY
Sakura's actual powerlevel can be seen in the fight at school on day 9.
...
How does it keep doing it?
>using a human magus to fight servants
>implying Imaginary Numbers can do shit to servants without ridiculous levels of prana
>implying even E rank servants can't speedblitz Sakura
Your genius is beyond my grasp.
No he's happily married to Orihime.
>inb4 muh magic worms
...
she wants Hakuno's dick so badly
Best girl
This
Nah, that's pretty accurate. If they're talking about how Sakura killed SERVANTS, then she's totally the Shadow, but if you mention how the Shadow was also totally murdering civilians every night, they say she 100% wasn't the Shadow at all.
It's kind of massively fucking obnoxious.
You'd probably be obnoxious too if your waifu was a fuckhole for dickworms.
Sakura was not in control of the shadow until she killed shinji. And in the first few times she didn't know it was anything more than a nightmare.
No, it was her. It deliberately let Shirou live the first time he encountered it.
Case in point.
She kills Gil WAY before she kills Shinji. She kills Shinji on day fucking 14, Gil died way before that.
>How do you know if you hate her SO MUCH
I know because directly after Day 14 is Day 15, which is Nine Lives and Sparks Liner High. Gil doesn't appear in the finale, either - because he died far before Sakura killed Shinji.
I think the best explanation of Sakura's behavior as the Shadow prior to becoming Dark Sakura is that it was being controlled loosely by her emotional state. It stopped before it killed Shirou for obvious reasons, but later it ends up almost killing him and destroying his arm; this is because Sakura was earlier thinking about how it would keep Shirou at home if he ended getting hurt, so the Shadow acted in a hostile manner. So she was in control of it, but not fully.
It's probably more accurate to say it sometimes uses her negative feelings as a vague guide for who to kill due to being linked to her, but the killing part is all on the grail because that's what it does. Shirou losing his arm was a coincidence since it happened in a huge explosion where he dies if he happens to dodge in a different way.
Basically, the shadow is like the devil reading your diary, then kidnapping you and using your car to run over the people you wrote that you hate while you're asleep.
>Sakura killed innocents, not Shadow!
>Shadow killed Gilgamesh, not Sakura!
Why are all fate thread so fucking garbage? What is wrong with you people?
I make bad threads about F/SN because I hate it.
Haterkun
Fucking NEVER, most likely.
>the poll ranking
We got the rest of the rankings? Where
The hilarious thing about these threads is they're made for the sole purpose of shitting on Sakura.
Heck I've never even seen Fate but you make me want to watch it just for her.
>Watch
You'll watch jackshit because Sakura is not featured prominently at all in any animated Fate material so far.
Read the fucking VN.
You'll have to wait for the Heaven's Feel movies then since that's the only route in which her character has any prominence.
>Arc and Sakura level
>Rin right below them
Man that's bullshit but
>Tamamo made top 10
Nice
Not him, but did you even read the VN?
It's made pretty clear that he considers her as if she was part of his family. Even gave her his father's key to the house and told her, in the Fate route, that his house belongs to her as much as it does to him.
See, this is the thing Sakura detractors try to block out, and say silly things like Nasu never having any set up to their relationship before HF.
>Kills Gilgamesh
>Kills Shinji
>Kills Kotomine
>Kills Zouken
Fail to see literally anything wrong there.
Shirou/Sakura romance never felt real to me. Shirou/Rin did, though. Saber was in between.
He fell in love with Rin for no reason tho. Like, he had an infatuation with her that never developed into anything else. It was weird when he confessed to her.

I thought the route was pretty clear about him getting closer to her and seeing through her public facade, and then bonding with her over the course of the grail war.
>Gets a happy ending
Her normal ending is probably the most depressing out of the game 5 end game endings.
That image what the heck??? She couldn't manage to get Shirou so she settled for Ichigo?
They should have made this a route making it the route where Shirou becomes Archer
Well that's because they don't have a romance, even before the grail war starts those two are basically already acting like a married couple, buying groceries, cooking for each other and arguing that they should do this and that for each other and so on, all that's missing is the ring and kissing really
>Kills Kotomine
Is that why he appears at the end of HF as the final boss?
Would have been better to make Sakura part of a splinter family. If her children can inherit her talents then the family would have a veritable army of servant killers ganking servants left and right during the next war.
They were acting like siblings, which is how Shirou perceived it.
see
Well first Sakura could only gank servants due to having immeasurable cosmic power at her fingertips via grail, second branch families are pretty useless because they'll be starting from scratch due to not having the magic crest, building up that knowledge takes centuries, and by that point your branch just became your competition
How so? Rin had the same "start" as Sakura, but only really pulled ahead because Sakura couldn't move forward due to the trauma of her life and being under thrall to Zouken. Had that not been the case, she would have had Shirou long ago.
Whereas Rin had a crush on him, and he seemingly developed one for her, but the two never interacted until the war. Rin nursed a crush for three years and never interacted with the boy she liked, and Shirou nursed his from an unknown point, but never talked with the girl he liked. They meet during the war and fell for each other in about 9 days. It can happen, but it's pretty quick for two people who barely knew each other a little over a week ago.
Saber was the general "magical girl falls out of the sky and it's attraction at first sight" deal. Too starcrossed to feel relateable.
Sakura hung out with and got to know the boy, became friends first, then fell after awhile. About as natural as natural gets.
He somehow thinks it's just a normal senpai-kouhai relationship, if she was only like his sister then I'd be worried about the boners he's starting to get just from seeing her pale delicate hand passing him a bowl of rice
Sakura is definitely better than boring Saber and prostitute Rin.
There are always alternate power sources and they could just absorb one of those "failed" magic crest families we see in apocrypha. Tokiomi had options that weren't completely stupid.
It's more that the meat of the relationship is missing. Which qualities did he see in Rin that made him go from crushing on her to falling for her? Which experiences made this happen? It just feels kind of empty compared to the other romances. Though to be fair, they are all pretty bad since they didn't receive a full focus.

Real romances tend to initiate quickly. The "we were friends and gradually realized we were in love over a long span of time" thing you commonly see in Japanese media is bullshit. Their quick romance makes even more sense here because they grew closer in a life or death situation which forced them to closely work with and depend on each other.
