I think HF normal would have been a fitting true ending for HF if Illya had been killed off earlier in the route somehow. But like you said, true end does give a good ending for a lot of characters who stuck around despite the loss of others feeling implicitly bitter and incomplete.
I feel like if FSN was going for the original Tsukihime downer feeling, it would have been Continuation of the Dream ----> Brilliant Years without the school epilogue ------> HF normal
But of course they were not so HF true end and UBW good(and UBW 2014 epilogue) and LE are a thing.
So that's why im conflicted. I like normal ending on its own, but like Last Episode, it does give greater closure and a proper "earn your happy ending" type story, and that i really enjoy.....despite being conflicted on it being out of place to HF proper, and the thematic element of Shirou and Sakura being properly judged for the actions they have taken up to that point being deus ex machinad out of existence.
So i take the story how it is regardless of my personal feeling regarding HF normal.
Getting in here before this goes further and formal action is needed. This thread is for complaining that your oh-so-special genius view is under-appreciated by the dumb peasants, and/or presenting a perfectly conventional and popular take like it's controversial so you can get your social validation from internet strangers, because sod knows no one's going to give it to you in real life. It's not for getting into personal slap fights.

I must confess, really not a fan of Strange Fake's Saber.
Probably my least favourite Servant from that entire run.
"Here's a bangin lil' tune about takin' on The Man!"
(Check out my Super Special Awesome Servant Compendium here)
I'm with you.
I share this sentiment lol.
Honestly I like every SF servant, but I feel Alkeides overstayed his welcome. Also I found the plot of removing Tsubaki from the hospital more interesting than Alkeides coming there to rain on their parade. It was kind of funny tho considering the Church was only right across the street.
Hes like the neighborhood bully who blocks your path to get to school....

Alkeides is fake inferior edgelord Herc. I've said it before, I'll say it again.

I take offense to Richard being called the worst but I guess that's just this thread doing its work. I don't particularly dislike anyone though, not even Alkiedes since I find amusement in all their interactions with eachother (though I do want them to resolve the issue with Tsubaki and get rid of her as she mostly only serves as a unwitting instigator of doom and we need to start decluttering this war) Only thing I really disliked was gilkidu as a pairing as that's 80% of what I see whenever I look into the strange/fake tag on any site

We need more Charuru in this world.
Am I the only one who likes Alkeides' presence? Dickbag he may be, but I feel there's potential in his plot, and really, I'm hoping for a very moving death scene in which the mud is purged from his being, he congratulates his killer, and spends what little time he has left either landing a significant blow on whoever is the main antagonist at the time after him or protect his killer from said blow.
That, and I see JJBA Part I parallels related to the previous point.

Basically, I want this.
Enkidu is just being used as hype tool and accessory to Gil in SF to me, he's gonna bring back Gil later I'm sure of it. Heck I rather see him and Ishtar bickering and trashtalking each other.
At least Arjuna had some decent showing as the rival of Karna. I'm still not fine with him constantly being associated with Karna tho, he has so much more things not Karna related to explore.
