    To be fair, 48 years is a pretty good lifetime for a battery. Nuclear or not.

    But yeah, they've already turned off a lot of functions to save power and squeeze out just a tiny bit more operating...

    Somewhat? It helps to clarify that "this is not the Official Third Holy Grail War". They're not writing the prequel to Fate/Zero here.

    What was the time period between the original 3rd Fuyuki Holy Grail War and the redux Imperial Grail War? Do we know that?

    In episode 16 of Neon Genesis Evangelion, the protagonist is pulled into the "shadow" of one of the monsters. This shadow is something like a pocket dimension, and the show calls it a Dirac Sea...

    Yeah, Moriarty's in that subtext zone where he's your "BEST FRIEND", probably because they don't want to spook the straights or something. You can 100% read him as romantically interested in you, but...

    There's a bit of a difference between characters who want to bone in valentines scenes (Fergus, Medb...) and characters whose entire narrative arc in FGO is romantic (Melt, Eresh, etc.).

    I imagine that they could've lucked into getting Saber if the replica was good enough, but it'd be nowhere near as guaranteed as having the real thing.

    Back in the day the script was probably most of the work for visual novels, but these days the budget's gone up enough that that's no longer a given.

    IIRC the Henry Jekyll short story (from Koha/Ace, I think?) has either Holmes or Watson mention quitting the Jack the Ripper investigation once it became obvious that magic was involved, so probably?

    Counter Guardians being mindless automatons definitely seems like something that Type-Moon has moved away from, much like they moved away from mindless berserkers - it's a cool story detail, but it...
