    Well, "subverting" doesn't necessarily mean "completely overturn" or something similar, and I was thinking specifically of things like "the original is always superior" (Fate) vs. "there's no rule that says that a copy can't overcome the original" (UBW), but I actually agree.

    Fate was the original will always defeat its descendants. Copies aren't descendants, they're copies.

    its more like the fans ascribe things to the story and then get mad when it turns out they were wrong, I think.

    avalon (the afterlife) being a thing, swords being an origin and arc looking better in granny clothes being obvious examples.


    hmm? What's that? One of those didn't fit? Don't be absurd, I merely stated three facts!

    Nasu being inconsistent in his rule and always retcon is something a lot of people who never read materials and basing off wiki most of time seem to say.

    Nasu: It's not a subversion of the rules, it's the specialization of the character which enables him or her to counter it.

    For reference: UBW vs. Gate of Babylon.

    It's not actually hax, it's just that Shirou trained too much in one particular area that he excelled at it and used it against Gil.

    That, and the XP leech from Archer helped build his world immensely.

    It still follows the rules, so I don't see why it should be labeled as a subversion.

    I can see him explaining it that way.

    Also...

    You mean the skill he never got to seriously train at because papa kiri told him it was garbage?

    A sneak peek advertisement and copying a variety of kitchen ware is not the reason he beat Gil. If he had been really that proficient, he would own food's forum by now.

    Ah, right, projection of kitchen blades as a child is a happy coincidence. Got it.

    At least the right training on Magecraft under Rin's tutelage got him results.

    What I really liked about this strip:

    MILF Alter's self-identification as 'edgy tits'.

    Medieval!Arthur's exasperation with Swimsuit Maid Alter.

    Medieval!Arthur/Mordred interactions.

    Medieval!Arthur's dig at vanilla Jeanne, even if anachronism.

    Medieval!Arthur's confusion with Okita (and exasperation at her alter).

    Medieval!Arthur/Proto!Artur exchange. Medieval!Arthur has seen some shit by this point.
