    so any reason Breast Valley looked like Seraph and was populated by like ten Servants?
    I saw SG mentioned a bunch so were we just diving in her Secret Garden?

    Columbus's interlude is really nice. His interpretation of himself as a rider who is riding on his dreams and would do anything and bear all kinds of hardship just to achieve them is really cool. No need to bleach since he doesn't need em to be cool.

    One Piece taught me that he is a pirate if he acts like what rxrx said above. So he is a pirate.

    Columbus is pretty straight forward in his stance: Screw class, job, alter and whatever not. He is himself and will not be defined by these meaningless stuff, being true to his dreams and himself.

    TM values this. Look at Kotomine and Columbus. I like Columbus since he shows the exact extremes of humanities's virtues and vices. It made him more likable than bleached people like Nero for example and those that suffered undeserving demonization like Jason, Odysseus and Perseus.

    Odysseus got demonized? Circe being mad about him ditching her isn't really demonizing him.

    Depends on which ver. of the myth is used. But seeing how Jason and Perseus is, I'm pretty pessimistic about the characterization.

    You're pessimistic about a lot of things.

    This is starting to sound like some projection of personal preferences on to TM because I didn't find Columbus terribly likeable and didn't get the impression I was supposed to

    The Perseus described in HA was apparently a wimp. The one from Prototype isn't, and Gorgon's line for him pretty much confirms they aren't the same person.

    Prototype gives him a glass heart and went to genocide people because his good and innocent master dies while FHA has Medusa compared him to the slimeball Shinji.

    We'll probably see Beast V, maybe IIR/L. Don't think we'll see VII.

    "Genocide" is a big overstatement. He fed on people because he needed energy.

    A lostbelt where Nero did not die and became some buffed god is entirely possible my dude. Even if she might potentially a Beast candidate, that doesn't mean she's always Beast or can't be a king in some ridiculous lostbelt of sort. Point is, don't rule out things just becuz you think it won't happen.
