Is he the most unlikeable MC ever?

I like Emiya Shiro.
Archer and Kiritsugu are good Emiyas too.

For plebs perhaps.

Why do you have such shit taste, OP?

almost

>"IF YOU KILL THEM, THEY WILL DIE!"

Thus spake Shiro.

Might want to watch more than 3 shows.

Anyone called me?

People give Shirou way too much shit.

Thank God I watched Zero before getting tricked into playing the VN or watching UBW or I'd have dropped Fate for good after it (and missed Zero and Strange Fake in the process).

Still mad I got tricked into giving the VN a shot by faggots on here, those several dozen hours could have been spent a lot better. Not sure how anyone past the age of 14 can think that shit is good (I assume most were around that age or younger when the VN hit and that's why it's popular, that and the shitty sex scenes and waifus).

>Filthy F/Zero Secondary

No, there are worse. He is bad but tolerable.

...

God, I hate secondaries so much

The onlygood sirou is the one who kill shinji but overall yeas, shirou is shit

it's funny because my friend watched UBW first and hated Zero because it was "too serious" compared to UBW.

Secondaries say the darndest things

Did you at least get to Heaven's Feel?

A challenger appears.

I'm pretty sure Ikari Shinji is the most hated protagonist, so much so that they use Kaworu as the "poster boy" for Evangelion.

Rate all EMIYAS from best to worst
Only from main series and Zero

All fucking secondaries must fucking hang.

I don't think that many people feel that strongly about him

For secondaries maybe.

He's alright.

That's too much labor, saber.
What's the answer, lancer?
Where's my cider, rider?
Go fetch arthur, caster.
Don't get fresh, gilgamesh.
You're a hard worker, berserker.
You out or in, assassin?
Will you be my partner, archer?
you're so tender, avenger.
What's it like being a realtor, Sheilder?

Sleep Tight, Onii-san

I wish every FZ secondary trash could be brutally killed.

>you're so tender, avenger
What.

Sleep Tight, Onii-san

Avenger is a rare class, featured in Fate/Hollow Ataraxia.

Can anyone explain me how do Command Spells really work? I started watching Fate series and I understand the rules of Holy Grail Wars, but I still don't know what Command Spells do. Can anyone explain it to me?

I want to beat the fuck out of this insufferable pussy. The lil bitch didn't deserve the perfection he got.

O MY HERO OF JUSTICE

Like a forceful command you can give your servant. They can also be used to boost their power and have minor wish-like abilities to remove a servants limiters or break them mentally or even terminate their services.

I'm shocked GO posting hasn't begun yet, especially with all the terrible Shirou recycling that game has. I thought GOfags loved invading SN threads.

They rip open holes in the very fabric of Plot Logic and cause headaches if you think too hard about them.

Also something about drawing Mana from the holy grail to accomplish any task or somesuch.

Command spells are the crystallization of a powerful sorcery in order to maintain control over their servant. They can:
-Issue a command that servants become forced to obey, but the strength of the command depends on the wielder and the recieving servant's strength. It can be resisted.
-Enhance a servants attack with enormous mana.
-Create exceptions in a servant's abilities one time in order to do things like teleport.

They generally work exactly how it sounds, they let you give a single command per use. They "work" by being essentially large mana stores, so you can't give out a command that would use more mana than the command spell actually has, for example, something like "Win the holy grail war" would be effectively pointless.

How they're used in the novel is as plot hax to circumvent poor writing, i.e. kirei using them to generate shields to block kerry's bullets, shirou using one to teleport saber and kill archer, etc.

>Secondaries
He's retarded but god damn please at least learn what the term means before using it wrong and making yourself look retarded too. I fucking hate people who misuse the word secondary.

>How they're used in the novel is as plot hax to circumvent poor writing, i.e. kirei using them to generate shields to block kerry's bullets, shirou using one to teleport saber and kill archer, etc.
In the Fate universe, they've explained that you can perform a form of magic that you are untrained in, provided you have strong enough catalysts. Shirou summoned Saber, even without a incantation. He had the strong catalyst of Saber's Sheath.

Nah

They can be used only three times, right? Every Master is given 3 Command Spells?

How sheltered you must be to think Just Because You're Correct Doesn't Mean You're Right is as bad as it gets.

>Every Master is given 3 Command Spells?
Not that guy but yes, and the War Overseer, who's usually a member of the Church, is given a few CS that can be given to a master, or used, in special cases.

Sleep tight, Onii-san.

Kill yourself, Shirou is based.

Came here to post this

ReDrop is based too.

He's not a secondary if he went back and read the visual novel.

Still mad. Rina should have won.

>Being so buttmad that you had to suffer through a shitty VN that you become an elitist about it
lmao

Nope. Every JoJo MC is worse.

I think I love every iteration of this character except the grand order bullshit.
I really admire Emiya Shirou and I adore the visual novel.

I like him.

Shirou is dedicated and tough as nails. I can see why a lazy sack from Sup Forums would hate his guts.

He's down there as one of the worst but he's not THE worst MC. That title belongs to Guilty Crown's MC

I think everyone's favourite magus killer is much more unlikeable as he is a shitty guy who will blow up countless innocent people to get the job done or kill a man he made disabled and his wife after making a deal to not kill him etc.

Elfen Lied, Re Zero, Sword art online all had worse MCs

Amuro comes to mind too

Hes a soyboy

All Emiyas are best. Except HF Shirou, that faggot can't even into justice.

...

Sounds like something that can only be qualified in a person-to-person basis, unbefitting of the implied broad-sweeping nature of the question you've posed.

Can someone explain how these "rare classes" work? Are they intentionally summoned for whatever wierd specific situations they apply for, or is there just a random chance that they'll appear in the grail war? Do they take up a slot in the class lineup, or do they just become an additional 8th servant?
Since the Grail is activated via the deaths of the servants sending the mana or whatever back into it, does the addition of the rare class mean that there can be a surviving servant at the end of the war, or does the Grail require more mana returned to it, meaning all servants must die regardless?

I agree.

>kirei using them to generate shields to block kerry's bullets
That wasn't what was happening there though.
Kerry's bullets work by connecting with a mage's magic circuits and basically overcharging and frying them from the inside out, killing the magus in the process. By activating a command seal before being hit by one of the bullets, Kirei was making it so that the bullets fried the command seal (which would just be going to waste anyway) instead of his own magic circuits.
>shirou using one to teleport saber and kill archer
Isn't one of the first things brought up by Archer when he's explaining command seals to Rin, is that if you wanted the Servant to move a great distance instantly, a Command Seal could accomplish that? Since their intangible wraith form already travels distances very fast, the Seal allows them to almost instantly travel pretty far.

Yes, and it's important to note that once the third and final command seal is used up, the Master no longer has control over their Servant.

Zero was a mistake.

Shuu was boring and generic at his worst, and literally Hitler at his best. He's not even the worst thing about Guilty Crown, never mind him stacking up against other bad MCs.

Zero is trash. this is bait but I'm still mad

Spiky Shiro is the best one of all.

Best MC coming in.

Nope.

This still doesn't make sense, I though Illya was older than him in the main series, so why is she all of a sudden in elementary school in Prisma Illya?

Yes is Shit, only Porngamefags like him.

>Admire bullshit
Better kill yourself self-insert cuck.

>implying someone so (super)special can be unlikable
Play the VN

Why is archer so cool yet such a fucking faggot in UBW?

OH MY JYUSHIMATSU MY LITTLE JYUSHIMATSU

>Female MC in Fate never ever

I'm mad.

>ignoring several seasons and a movie of a female MC in Fate

Read HA

If I was willing to do that I wouldn't be asking the question.

if females are also allowed, try out Ange from Cross Ange

Kiznaiver's MC ranks up there

Then fuck off, no spoon feeding.

Pretty sure that's Kirito

This actually

I dunno, but he ruined Fate for sure but self-inserters will never admit it.

Literally who

How did he ruin it considering he is the basis for the entire story of the three routes, and what for you is considered a good protag?

thought it was mikura from mezzo forte for a sec

Don't even bother replying to that kind of person, man. I don't even think he understands his own values and just wants the main character to be a total badass from the get-go.

>You will never brave enough to walk toward eternal damnation and still smile about it

I like to think that he managed to avoid that fate

I realize this, which honestly annoys me a good bit especially while drinking cause I want to honestly talk to these people about their opinions I feel they don't know much about.

I feel like he was meant to be unlikable, which makes it not as bad. The worst is when the author intends for a character to be well liked, but they're fucking awful

You almost got me.

There is still hope in F/Ext Link.
