    These are not made-up words. Even if their meaning is unclear, there are at least some notions associated with them. So, Nasu probably means something by assigning alignments, it's just unclear what.

    ok, i am sure that someone must have said this by now, but given that Ophelia says that her Lostblet king must be watched at all times or he will start doing shit at random, that makes me think that it will be Loki.

    no demi-servant Darnic...

    my sadness knows no bounds

    Wasn't the other crypter girl the one that said that? The one in charge of the 3rd Lostbelt, forgot her name
    I think Ophelia was just proud of her king and her knight strengths

    Wasn't Ophelia said to have the strongest knight as her Servant or am I mixing her up with Beryl and his Camelot Lostbelt? Don't remember her complaining about her King...

    Context is important. I think Cursed Arm is pretty damn awesome myself, but he got consistently destroyed every time he fought someone in HF unless the shadow got involved to attack his opponent.

    Methinks Zouken would have fared poorer had he not had Sakura nomming the competition. Remember, this is the guy whose original overall strategy for the past two Grail Wars is "Eh, I don't think I can win this one, I'll just let my worthless family members faff about while waiting for a better opportunity in a future Grail War, even though I know I can't last that much longer."

    For someone supposedly obsessed, and who went to all the trouble of trying to make Sakura/the Shadow into some sort of trump card, he had a pretty lackadaisical attitude most of the time.

    Hassans are weaker than normal Heroic Spirits and Assassins aren't meant to fight Servants in open combat anyway. He does pretty well regardless.

    Zouken did pretty well with whatever pieces he have at hand. Can't say it didn't feel good to see him defeated and in despair when Darnic screwed him up in the F/Ap universe though.

    Not saying he doesn't. Like I said, I think Cursed Arm is great (easily my 2nd favorite Hassan, and he's only 2nd because Serenity is just so damn cute). Just pointing out that saying "Zouken almost won with just Cursed Arm" is a little misleading.

    Yeah, when he actually gives it his all he's pretty damn formidable. Makes me wonder how the 4th might have played out if he had seriously backed Kariya.

    You'd need to be sure to have gotten every single one of his worms, so no. He could be killed, but he wouldn't die for good.

    Okay, but, why assume the missile wouldn’t get all the worms

    Being fair Zouken does have a tendency to worm his way out of situations that really should have killed him.

    The question is does Zouken still a worm inside Sakura?
    "Only in my company, will you not be a monster"


    anywhere than here

    If you hit the Matou Manor with a missile while Sakura is there it's probably a moot point.
