The Type-Moon Miscellaneous Thoughts Thread

IIRC Kiara being the female equivalent of Kirei was intended according to mats

If I had to guess at the similarities: Religious theme, sketchy helpful character who turns out to be last boss, pathological need to see others suffer in order to feel anything, martial arts, technically already dead, big boobs

[Rafflesiac]

Just think, in another worldline Kirei humps the Earth

[Arashi_Leonhart]

No, Zero taught me that would break whatever he was humping

You mean this part?

方向性は違うが、女版の言峰綺礼とも言える。言峰は自分を悪と認め、その性を良しとした非人間 。

yea alot of similarities in theme and ideas but 方向性は違う and "I'm not evil" vs Kirei's "I'm evil lul"

Kirei Araya
Ki Ara
Kiara

i saw something like this

You're not wrong actually

Having been designed at the same time as the Fate/EXTRA boss characters, she was made to be completely opposite of the others.“Fate always has the most amazing boss characters. We want to make sure things stay that way in EXTRA as well.” said Mr. Niifu in a presentation, “In that case, why don’t we make her name a cross between the names of the main villains of Fate/stay night and The Garden of Sinners (Kara no Kyoukai)? And that’s how she got her name.

Also Nasu's thought behind Kiara's design, to answer the original question of fire mountain:

As for myself, at that time I had just cleared Bayonetta, which is why CCC features such a high tension scenario. I bared my desire for all to see, “Well see, I really want to write a slutty bitch into the story. A super erotic bitch to end them all. Like why the heck don’t we just make the game into a new genre called Code Bitch?” So I went to Takeshi Takeuchi with a variety of nonsensical requests such as, “Please make the last boss costume naked-apron (Hadaka Apron).” Having been designed at the same time as the Fate/EXTRA boss characters, she was made to be completely opposite of the others.

Now we knew where Tamamobitch got that Bayonetta bodysuit.

actually, the whole nun thing for me had to do with the combination of both the vest and the thing on her head. i was taking the whole costume into account, not just parts of it. here is an example of what i was thinking of

and obviously, i meant for the kirei similarities to just be something that i would imagine nasu borrowed from in the beginning of the creative process, either by coincidence or accident. i by no means intended to say that her whole character was just a genderbend kirei

on the topic of kirei being "slutty" though, i would like to jokingky point yo towards the Mapo tofu scene in the movie

[Arashi_Leonhart]

yeah, and speaking of the whole outfit, what nun has a leg slit like that

[fire_mountain_30]

the intentionally sexy nasu kind? of course it is going to suffer some alterations. you might as well ask how many priests IRL carry bayonettes like alexander anderson.

hint. none that i know and i was raised (kind of) by priests for a large portion of my life

No, the thing on Kiara's head is this: https://wing-auctions.c.yimg.jp/sim?...=1&sr.fs=20000

[Laserman]

Now I think that these all fit very well.

[LegalLoliLover]

Obviously, everyone knows about Dr. Gil, but no one mentions Dr. Hassan?

[Reign]

Robin with Decidueye feels too easy.

[asterism42]

Not doing Mozart with Kricketune pshooo

[Laserman]

Robin with Decidueye feels too easy.

Well, they have been paired together maybe once or twice off the top of my head. Shiftry would fit well with him too.

[Altaris]

No one did Marie x Meloetta yet huh

[GundamFSN]

Now we knew where Tamamobitch got that Bayonetta bodysuit.

I think only people who didn't know about Bayonetta wouldn't notice the homage.

Same with Nero Bride.

What the fuck Nasu

Nobody better let him play Dark Souls.

[castor212]

Lol

[Iceblade44]

Too late, Dark souls is one of his favorite games

[GundamFSN]

You're -insert the number of days since Dark Soul was released- too late for that, buddy.

[Zurvan]

Even if he wouldn't be way too late, Berserk also exists
