It makes sense with context. Zouken has modified her body to be under her control. The parasite inside her needs energy and semen is one of them in the magus world. Her body is breaking apart due to the shadow and she doesn't know what's going on anymore. She also had sex with Shirou who she never thought would want to be with her due to how low her self-esteem is. She's also a horny girl in general and loves having sex with Shirou.
I'm convinced. Not a contrived reason to make otakus get of on their waifu at all. Makes sense

I dont think the context is going to help in this instance phatmac, especially how you phrased it! lmao
I'm not going to kinkshame anyone for liking to have sex. You go girl. Also semen and blood being used for magic is also a thing outside of Fate. It's occult stuff that has been used in media before.

The Type-Moon lore is honestly pretty cool. I've kinda soured on Fate over the years but it seems like that's all we're getting. At least the English patch for Mahoyo is coming along somewhat.

You have no idea Planetsmasher. Its not just the anime, its all the material of Type Moon itself. I mean it has its own entire english speaking forum that has endured for over 9 years(and prior to that a predecessor forum)

People are really crazy about this stuff.

I definitely have no idea. It never really made any sense to me to begin with and I started skipping cutscenes after like two hours of story missions so I got even more lost.

Sakura is one of the few characters in Fate that otaku aren't fans of due to subverting the pure childhood friend that is the ideal housewife. She's been fucked over by the world due to magi being assholes.

In no universe is a story which takes tens of hours to read in its entirety with 5 sex scenes later retconed away like a hot potato "Porn."
Actually yes it is

Don't bother, Pata. Not gonna change the mind of peeps who characterize it as a pr0nz gaem when their minds are already set.

Stay salty, brahs, that a porn game is King of Mobile.

A porn visual novel with a great story and characters of course. It would mean nothing without the characters and lore actually having something to them.

Just nicely drawn illustrations.




Yes, Fate itself was originated from a visual novel called Fate/Stay Night. Unarguably one of the most popular visual novels of all time to this day. At the time it wasnt because of the sex(which was like 4% of the entire novel itself, and absolutely written horribly), but because at a time when sex doujin light novels were almost little more than canon fodder for self insert dating sims, here comes this huge ass 800 thousand word absolute epic of a novel challenging expectations of heroism, duty, siblinghood, PTSD trauma, love, tragedy, fear, betrayal and ideals all wrapped up in a magical death war setting.

Nasu(the writer) has admitted that they chose the sex doujin angle purely because it as an indie company back then, it was the best way to gain traction in the visual novel marketplace.

Once the all ages scrubbed version(realta nua) came out, it exploded even more with all the adaptions and spinoff materials.
is there any version of this I can play in English? Sounds cool

Edit: Although some of the images in here are... wow lol

Are there still no Live2D skins in Fate/Grand Order? If so I can't even fathom what it will be like when there's a Saberface that isn't just a static image but one with very small animation.

Also it's odd to see mocking of Nasu's sex descriptions without the bizarre crustacean/mollusk/other sea creature comparisons being brought up.

And i dont blame you. There's literally no way for a newcomer to start with Fate GO and have any concept of anything. I dont even blame you for doing what you did. Even hardcore veteran Type Moon fans like me have issues with how FGO has handled things in its pursuit of profits of course....but of course you can chalk it up to old man ranting at cloud if you want

I guess terrible rates really help after all. I played that game for like a year and only managed to pull three 5* units over the entire year and all three of them were the same guy.

I had zero attachment to it beyond "this is the most popular mobile game, might as well give it a try" and spent no money on it, so it was pretty easy to quit. What keeps people coming back? Does the anime have that many fans?
Fate is a big deal in Japan due to Type Moon's otaku roots and the anime being popular helps. The game isn't great, but the story and characters have helped fans get invested in the game. It honestly should be a better game with how much money it makes, but I guess all that money goes to making more anime and merch.

I quit Gatcha after I spent an extra $200 on gems and still didn't get the roll I wanted. And that's after I spent my $50 limit for the month.

FGO is so popular that most fans of FGO just started playing with no other Fate knowledge. It's definitely hit the mainstream for Japan and has tons of newcomers thanks to FGO.

Yeah never spend money on Gacha except for maybe the once a year Guarenteed 5 Star.

Just enjoy your F2P Servants, clear the game with them and Your Friend's Merlin. :P

Yeah it is a pity that Fate/Stay Night is just known as a porn Visual Novel. The All Ages version, for example (that is also the version I played), completely removes the H scenes and the story is not impacted at all. It is a really long VN, but the story is wonderful, including how you understand everything only after playing all the three routes.

Eh, don't get bent out of shape. Dudes be trollin' or having a laugh.

Obviously this is going to sound like trolling but I think the world of Nasuverse is extremely deep and unique. Say what you will about the writing and the tropes that pervade this series, the concepts and the way the world operates in Nasuverse is unique. It has its own fair share of mystique and intrigue with a lot of governing rules that help craft it into a believable world. Sure some of the stories are not that great and it can be viewed pandering but I consider the Nasuverse world to be equivalent to the likes of Star Wars and Song of Ice and Fire.

Tsukihime and Garden of Sinners fans still left behind.
Also the only thing that surprises me from the chart is that people can spend money on Tinder?

It's not surprising given how popular it is with everyone. What's strange, I just can't get into the Fate franchise at all no matter what I do, something about the universe and the "feel" of the writing just makes me feel put off.

I try to stay F2P but they got my money twice. Once for Jeanne Alter (got her), and just the other day for Ereshkigal (didn't get :( But I got Abigail Williams a few days before so.)

Is that really trolling Kayos90....is it really? I mean your not wrong. Nasuverse lore is just as deep and complex as anything Star wars or GOT has, and in Japan its definitely taken in that type of fashion.

Nasuverse has things like using an Aztec god to represent Brazil because he thinks Mexico is in South America and all the countries in South America are the same. It is probably has more absurd examples but this is the one I know of because i am brazilian. "Believable world" is a very big stretch when it is very clear to me that it is made by people with very little knowledge of things that arent from first world countries.
