Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.

Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?

One of us! One of us! One of us!

For a moment I actually hoped Jeanne and co don't succeed in their plan, which made their argument a bit convincing. It would've been nice to hear it all from Chris's own lips, instead of him continuing to be the alooflord The first season made us think the power of Chris-Nina love will save the day but it'll really be Favaro-Bahamut

Idk if anyone else here watches it, but oh my God, that episode. They would be so fucked if All Might was actually a villain. The nurse cracked me up at the end. "You really don't know how to hold back, do you?" Those poor guys for getting put up against him. They would have failed miserably if he had not been handicapped. Idk how All Might ended up being my favorite character (aside from Aizawa and Tsu), but I feel like he is probably going to die eventually and I will cry my eyes out.

Spoiler: click to toggle also undead kaisar to match his undying ideals lul im also a trifle disappointed that the only time that Charioce really does any emoting is during the climax, and was hoping that maybe he'd be a bit more loose in the aftermath, but eh, it's all good.

But artistically, I think I liked that very subtle, wordless dance/meeting with Nina at the end. I do think it's very sweet that, having lost their means of communication (he can't read what she writes and she can't speak so he can hear), they still maintain their relationship. The small smile in and of itself is pretty expressive - given the lack of emoting he usually displays, it makes it more meaningful when he does. also I can't believe my tinfoil Azazel-Jeanne ship turned into them actually journeying together that's the real ultimate ship here

It blows my mind that this show in particular is also capable of being extremely romantic, despite being the same show that can be extremely distasteful. Also that ep end cliffhanger [intensifies] EDIT: I couldn't wait and watched it. I'm impressed that felt conclusive as it did, given the length of the series. p moving all in all

Thinking particularly of the sentimentality here, but I definitely can appreciate cheesiness Fate/Zero is definitely something that's a bit more cynical in its worldview, but I think there's something to enjoy in either approach

Posts: 2,642 Group: Mars Clan (wololo!) Member #1,237 Joined: September 17, 2014 True Name: Kitten	I've been interested in the new Fate show. So it has nothing in common with Fate/Zero and the sequel UBW? I've become more and more spoiled in waiting for blu-ray versions, is there any censorship in Aco-whatever? Such as those disgusting black blobs censoring blood and gore or godrays that censors nudity that so many TV animes have?

Different authors as well. I didn't notice any censorship myself, but that's not usually something I'm looking for, so maybe I missed it? There's definitely still blood/gore, though.

Posts: 2,642 Group: Mars Clan (wololo!) Member #1,237 Joined: September 17, 2014 True Name: Kitten	If it's not noticable it's ok. I'm talking censorship like Tokyo Ghoul. A show about ghouls eating human flesh and body parts....where the human flesh and body parts are censored with huge black blobs. I remember at its worst almost the whole screen was censored except some tiny bit in the corner. I saw a fight between Lancer and Saber I think (I believe instead of individuals there's two factions fighting against each other?) and it was pretty damn hype. And I like hype fights. So that convinced me. ???????
