    that description is too binary, nondescript, and isn't really my point, i'll try though: Higashide wrote some Grade-A, absolutely delicious trash imo, i'm positive if he used his his literary skills in the culinary field he could open up a fast food chain and put McDonalds out business in no time and the world would be better for it.


    There does that make more sense? Still not really what i meant but w/e

    Haven't read Ayakashibito but heard it's good. Evolimit was decent but not really leave any lasting impression on me

    So yeah, Higashide has always been a "meh" writer
    Ayakashibito is okay but has some really obvious flaws. It's better than Princess Waltz but still not exactly great.

    Higashide was only a sub-writer on Princess Waltz btw, I wouldn't judge him based on it.

    After the Great Holy Grail War, he spent his days in shame while being watched by the Association of Magi in London… However, one day, Caules had his class changed with a single phrase by a certain long-haired and mean-eyed person with a very high position, who told him, “Why are you studying this kind of magecraft which doesn’t suit you? Your talent is much more suited to this, you know?”, and before he realized it, he was surrounded by classmates who were dangerous in terms of both talent and personality while he was still in a daze.
    “No way, I want to live a normal and mediocre life. I don’t want to get involved with these people.” Dear Caules-kun thought this while sighing softly as he gave a sidelong glance at the optimistic and thoughtless genius who was making a ruckus in a nearby seat.
    Is Caules' situation post-Apoc elaborated any further at the end of Volume 5, or is what is described in the materials book basically all that happens? He becomes the head of the clan, right?

    Astolfo is getting involved with spin off apo grail wars the association wants to make.
    Also, what does this mean? Is the Association planning on having a more active role or something with the sub-species wars

    Doesn't Caules show up in Case Files? He might have some more detail there (albeit a bit different situation).

    It's funny that a lot of the offhand stuff sounds so much more interesting than vanilla Apocrypha.

    What about the glorious Edelfelt sister tag team? Or the war of guns vs magecraft as the Nazis carried off the Greater Grail? The post-Great War adventures of Caules on Team Waver and Astolfo as the world-traveling goof? Shishigou's freelance jobs that made him familiar with the other Red Masters? Shiroumine's Middle Eastern tour?

    It's saying that the apo setting provides opportunities for making spinoffs, like other sub-species wars or association plannings, and Astolfo could very well appear there

    that was someone's summary on jbbs way back when
    basically the person was speculating that astolfo could appear in apo spin offs because he's left alive.

    After Celewdnike tries to mindbreak Astolfo and Mordred kills her, he contracts with Sieg.

    Since Sieg flies off with the Grail, Astolfo remains connected to him and swans around the world.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Come to think of it, if Sieg's an immortal dragon soul in the Reverse Side of the World, wouldn't that mean Astolfo will be traipsing around the world forever unless he's killed?

    That would also explain the sustainability question. Thanks a lot.

    there's always the chance that sieg and jeanne get killed when they get to the Red Dragon world.

    Apoc/Last Episode being a dying delusion is pretty dark

    - - - Updated - - -

    Besides, the All-Loli Manaka saw Sieg, which means he's definitely alive.
