In this thread we pay tribute to the unsung heroes of Fate.

UBW is the worst Fate route because it's the one where he not only lives but is "redeemed."

Then post an unsung hero.

Miss Taiga and her Taiga Dojo allowing you to come back to life every time you die is the real MVP.
Jaguarman is a nerf.

>bangs Rider
>bangs Sakura

He deserves to be in the throne of Heroes

Reminder that the reason Gil wanted to wipe out humanity is because he saw what Sakura turned Shinji into.
To make sure there were no more victims like Shinji, he planned to wipe out humanity so they could not give birth to another Sakura.

b-but I thought Sakura was the victim of Shinji's abuse?

Based Caster Gil taking over

Shinji did nothing wrong.

Its only a matter of time before he gets himself arrested or bankrupts the household. He can be saved from the paranormal, but he can't be saved from legal prosecution.

Truly /Our Guy/, he deserved better than a useless sister.

Holy shit I believe it.

>daily reminder that while Shirou and Rin are busy fucking like animals in the UK wormslut is being creampied by /ourguy/

Someone hasn't read HA. heh

Wasn't enough Rider.

UBWs endings couldn't get more based than this.

What does the average Sup Forumsnon think?

Do you think Gilgamesh wiping out 95% of humanity would have been a good idea? Do you support that endeavour? Do you think humans would become more magically weighted again?

>all these butthurt Rinfags
Enjoy being third place, losers.

Holy shit, the assblast that Rinfags have generated over the past days is unreal.

Here's the real poll

>Prisma

And the best part? The movie isn't even out for another month.

...

>Sister is a psycho wormslut
>She seduces you, claiming that you "raped her".
>She uses that for sympathy points so she can hook up with a autistic sword cuck
>You try to warn him cause he's your best friend
>Get killed and labeled a rapist
Shinji is a victim of circumstance.
His sister used him for her own gain.

Get out wormfaggots.

Worms in her vagina

Shinji warned us about Sakura but Shirou didn't listen.

Shinji...I don't get why he gets all the hate in Sup Forums. FSN is just written to make him out as the bad guy, when really he's no worse than any of the 'protagonists' and a better person than most of them.

What are the main complaints? He raped Sakura and stole Rider to use in the war?

Okay, let's get this straight. He never fucking raped Sakura. He never did it. He never did it. He never did it. He never did it. He fucked Sakura.

Let me ask you this. WHO IN THE GAME DIDN'T FUCK SAKURA? You can't even name one fucking character who hasn't plugged her loose cunt! She is the kind of bitch who will act like she doesn't want it when she really does. She'll say No! while having multiple orgasms. Shinji knew this, he's a fucking ladies man. He knows what filthy whores like Sakura want.

And there's this other big bitch you guys have with him. He supposedly stole Rider and used her in the war for his own greed.

Objection! He was worried about his one and only precious sister. Is keeping your loved ones from a brutal war so wrong? When Shirou does the same thing to Saber it's like 'oh he's so manly', but when Shinji does it it's wrong? He just wanted to protect Sakura. He probably was going to use his Holy Grail wish to tighten her cunt back up or cure her syphilis or something.

The story was written to make that faggot Shirou look good. Objectively, Shinji is a far better character than Shirou. At least he has the balls to take action decisively instead of dicking around like Shirou, and if he weren't stuck with the weak ass servant Rider and no plothax he probably would have won the war.

And Sakura is in the top 10.

Friendly reminder that only secondaries hate Shinji.

>daily reminder that while Shirou and Rin are busy fucking like animals
UTW anime didn't have any hints that Shirou and Rin were together.

>FSN is just written to make him out as the bad guy
Not if you have 2 brain cells.

...

Give me five good reasons as to why Rin isn't best girl.

Sakura is an easier lay

>Wanting worms.
Are you a dog?

>not wanting a big, busty kouhai who won't get preggo since worms slurp all your jizz

He was redeemed back in Fate when the dumb loli kills him.

>not wanting the worms to massage your dick while inside her, and as you climax they wriggle up your urethra

Fucking putrid.

>implying Prisma Sakura isn't identical to F/SN Sakura
Nevertheless, here's another general Type Moon poll. Rin has gotten BTFO by Sakura twice this year alone.

My nigga.

She's a slut.

Saber's so good even Rin wants her. Saber made Rin into a slut.

Why do I love Shinji so much? It's pretty simple when I think about it. Shinji isn't just the best character in the series, he might just be the greatest character of all time. Just imaging him walking through Fuyuki, all the ladies swoon at his very scent. They know how he smells, the essence of his smell is sold under the the name of "Matou Orgasm." The very nature of Shinji is mystery. could he be playing a deeper game than even his creator realizes? The answer is yes, he has transcended such boundaries as the written world, and has free will to do whatever he sees fit. However, Shinji is filled with such guile, such arcane craft that he does not even use these powers. Why, you might ask? You will never know, for the mind of the Shinji is not one that is easily penetrated. Shinji is such a force of nature in his realm that nothing can truly touch him, the only thing keeping him bound to the page at all is his will to exist within the preordained boundaries of his world. Shinji is not only beyond the comprehension of us, he exists within a plane of true focus and beauty. Observe his playful smile, his gourgeous and rippling biceps, his gallant nose, and most importantly, his eyes. His eyes, like pools of sapphire, provide the only glimpse into the true machinations of Shinji. Do not stare into them. Many good men have gone mad in the attempt. Shinji is not just a character, a formless collection of words and images, he is himself is the binding that holds the saga together. Without Shinji, the entire Fate series as we know them crumbles.

These are just of a few of the reasons why I like Shinji so much.

And it trickled down to the past and Ishtar became a slut making Gil suffer. Saber really is the center of the Nasuverse.

Rin was BTFO years ago when Sakura got fourth place in that one poll while Rin herself got a lower ranking.

Sakura will never beat Rin in a main poll though.

I suspect differently, purely because the HF Movies will give Sakura a major popularity boost. That always happens after each girl gets spotlighted.

>HF Movies will give Sakura a major popularity boost.
And I suspect the movies will reveal to the public what a massive shit she is. She is a terrible heroine and the movies will prove that.

That one is an official poll, though.

I know people like to hate on Shinji and all that, but if you really think about it, he's not a bad person. He and Shirou were genuine friends, even each other's only male friends (Issei only used Shirou like a tool), before they were torn apart by magic and the archery club. Shirou never really came to hate Shinji. And you can't really take a tsundere like Shinji's words at face value. If you consider that Shirou was a better friend to Shinji that Shinji was to Shirou, imagine how hard it must have been for Shinji to go against Shirou.

Shinji is a prideful guy, so he obviously can't bring himself to do things that would damage that pride. That's just his personality, it doesn't make him a bad person. He says things he doesn't mean and does things he will regret. The plot of FSN is built to give Shinji a hard time, particularly by making him Shirou's enemy, probably the thing he wanted least.

Remember that Shinji initially wanted to work with Shirou, but the game doesn't even give you the option to consider it. He wanted to ally with him because he was his friend, if he only cared about winning he would have gone to Sakura. The game wants to give Shinji a hard time and turn him into a villain. Think of him like Harvey Dent from The Dark Knight, or even Berserker. Berserker is said to be the strongest capable of sweeping the other 6 Servants, but he ends up having one of the lowest kill counts. The game is designed to make the best of us fall so the underdogs like Shirou can rise.

Shinji Shitposting is the best. Someone post Shinji on Sup Forums.

He did nothing wrong

Ah, the true tragic underdog of the light novel.

The modern Type Moon fanbase got into the series through Fate/Zero for the most part, and is aware of the other dark works like KnK, so they won't be little shits who can't handle a girl having a rape backstory. The only reason HF and Sakura got a negative reaction at first was because Nasu wrote the first two routes to be extra shallow for a new audience of casuals, then ended up going back to his roots for HF and placing it in the same game instead of saving it for Fate/Another Night like originally planned, causing a situation where the new fans were shocked by HF and had a kneejerk response to it for being so different to the two other routes.

Even Nasu mentions how the negative reaction came from people who couldn't accept stories that weren't "royal road", and that the reception of it improved immensely over time as the fanbase matured.

...

Beautiful.

>sociopath
>promiscuous
>violent
>greedy
>useless when it really counts

>fanbase matured.
More like the Royal road fags left it and the edgy mature fags stayed and it grew from there.

Exactly. People grew out of the generic shounen stories and realized that there was far more depth to HF once they actually paid attention to its story instead of screeching about there not being enough focus on generic eroge date scenes, hymen breaking and boom bang clang action ghosts.

>boom bang clang action ghosts

HF is is edgy not mature though. All he did was add rape to a shounen story. Hilarious.

I wonder if there are any VN where you play the creepy rapist dude, and like you aren't at all sympathetic. I wonder if there are non-porn versions of that.

See, the fact that you hone in on the rape as the defining factor of Sakura's past is what shows how immature you are.

Gil clothes will never fail to make me smile.

You didn't prove me wrong with that statement. I stated that's all he added to shounen and you can't explain otherwise. So I am right, thank you.

I too am a man of culture

>all he did was add rape
>get shown how retarded it is to boil down what the Matous did to Sakura to "rape"
>n-no, you didn't prove me wrong!
There are also the various parts of the story that the VN never explicitly spells out to you and that you have to reread to catch, like why Sakura reacts the way she does to events early in the route, not to mention the moral ambiguity of Shirou's decision and the question of Sakura's morality and responsibility for the events of the route that people still have heated debates about to this very day. It's a far cry from the straightforward stories of Fate and UBW that are only about beating strong servants and refusing to budge from your initial position.

Dude adding a rape/sob story to the heroine doesn't make it mature when all the actions taken by the hero are the same as a shounen hero. Jesus fuck fuck you for making me respond to your shit.

>"m-muh rape!"
You should try actually reading HF for once instead of shitposting memes. Also, when did you last see a shounen where the main character kills the main action heroine with his own hands to save the one he loves?

...

Plus everything regarding Kotomine, which is just brilliant.
The juxtaposition of Shirou's understanding of Kotomine in Fate (Route) and HF remains one of my favorite things in any work of fiction.

>Also, when did you last see a shounen where the main character kills the main action heroine with his own hands to save the one he loves?
Don't dramatize it because even that played like a shounen story. It's disgusting how you edgelords try to pass this route as something "mature".

He gets to live with his family at least.

What if shirou was raised by kotomine instead?

>Tries to murder Shirou twice.
>Let's Shinji off the hook with a punch.

He wouldn't have been raised at all.

its hard to hold a grudge for attempted murder when you won't die even if you're killed

He has been dethroned, Narita is /our guy/ now.

...

Not that shirou.

Fuck off Zerobaby

>bangs rider
when?

It's been implied multiple times. No, I don't *think* there's hard confirmation.

>I never played the VN
>I am a secondary
>I get my info off TM Wiki

...

I know you are but what am I?

Irony and shitposting aside, I've spent a long time wondering what a route where Shinji was redeemed was like, ever since that one Tiger Dojo where they talk about content they couldn't manage.

prisma is mostly watched by loilcons.

>rapes Sakura
>takes command spells from her
>OH NO HE SPARED MEDUSA WHAT A NICE LITTLE BOY

I just want to see Shirou and Shinji going on wacky misadventures.

I watch it for eventual Rin and Luvia hatesex.

I unironically watch it for the story and any of the lewd loli scenes make me cringe. Need more bath scenes of best girls though.

The two tittymonsters. Why were they bathing together?

>Sakura
>Higher than Gil
What the fuck.
