I liked Astolfo more when he wasn't a meme

I liked Astolfo more when he wasn't a meme

When was this fabled time?

[Arha]

From about the 11th century until 2012, I think.

[Arashi_Leonhart]

his original story was comedic and over-the-top entertainment passed around primarily orally...he's always been a meme

[Magikewl]

maybe astolfo was a mistake

[Raylen Cypher]

Yes.

[castor212]

Go create time machine and annihilate the french then

[Trubo]

I remember thinking it was pretty bad at the time and I don't think most people liked either, which is probably why you don't hear that opinion often. I don't remember why I disliked it though.

Personal favorite is CCC collab.

It was a meh combination of raid+missions. Some cute stuff overall, but I don't really remember much other than lol Miyu CE artwork.

[Trubo]

And no, that wasn't a typo. People were pretty upset that they couldn't get Miyu since the artwork she had is the one from the CE.

[asterism42]

Go create time machine and annihilate the french then

Orlando Furioso/Innamorato were written by an Italian

[Magikewl]

it’s too late i’m already destroying france as we speak

[Rafflesiac]

Astolfo is Good, OP.

[Arashi_Leonhart]

I mean I agree but I also agree with the destroying france part

[SeiKeo]

Astolfo is Good, OP.

Some memes can be good, it's not exclusionary.

I wonder if the whole thing is done by Sieg subconsciously since he is lonely and wanted to see a case where Black and Red servants work towards a common goal. His rational and good side thinks this is bad and roped in Fujimaru to resolve the situation.

Another guess: Karna doesn't give a damn about the grail, but he will fight hard if his master wants it. Wonder if he decide to discard his morals and pride to help his master win the grail.

[Balthizar]

Some memes can be good, it's not exclusionary.

The emergence of a new meme, like a genetic mutation, can be categorized as "neutral", "deleterious", or "advantageous". Most of the time, they are neutral and don't really affect anything. Neutral memes might be cancerous and grow out of proportion but aren't actively harmful. Sometimes they're deleterious and become malignantly cancerous and actively harmful. Very rarely is a meme advantageous. These are the memes that are remembered for centuries and eventually become the cornerstones of civilizations that lead them to brand new heights.

Where does Astolfo land in this categorization, I wonder...

[castor212]

Astolfo's a gr8 character and i will die holding to that

[Gold Experience]

I wonder if the whole thing is done by Sieg subconsciously since he is lonely and wanted to see a case where Black and Red servants work towards a common goal. His rational and good side thinks this is bad and roped in Fujimaru to resolve the situation.

So basically Hollow Ataraxia?

[Wandering Swordwoman]

Wew, Sieg become a funny dragon
