    Geez. I tried reading this but I can't get over how damn wordy the chapter is, or that damn power-up. And his A/N, as always, oozes with smug entitlement.

    There is such a thing as "too epic". I actually think it's possible to get SICK on the stuff.
    I believe the problem is that this story is the Michael Bay Transformers of Fate/Stay Night fanfiction stories. Epic is just awesome with everything leading up to it. Awesome is something that inspires awe while still being true to the story.

    Hisui: Actually the boke to Kohaku's tsukkomi, but has a complete straight face.
    Kohaku: Overcompensating genki. Go overboard with it.

    Thanks for the link. I read the whole thing and found it quite enjoyable. More so than From Fake Dreams anyway, because this Clownwithachainsaw guy makes sense with his A/N lessons. It was awesome, but only when it needed to be. And yet this fic is like a roller coaster of constant "awesome" with no stop in sight.

    The awesome needs to be sparse or it is not awesome. Then again, if you are Gurren Lagann...

    Gurren Lagann actually has basically perfect pacing to build up it's awesome though thus making the awesome amazingly memorable. Everytime I rewatch I realize their are like three times as many scenes as I remember.
