And then she bashed through interdimensional causality with an axe.
Quotes & Stuff...No, no stuff, just quotes
Was it an axe? No hammer time?
*blink* You know, it could have been. The axe is such a signature weapon for her it might be chopping the facts out of my mind. Somebody not at work should look up the epilogue of the manga.

And then Redial happens and it shows that Yuno is still a bit obsessive even without the abuse and stuff.

Such a cool premise rammed into the ground by such stupid twists

Then you got the "she thinks something she hasn't thought in ten years" and she wished for him to disappear, he gets headshot and she is like, "Wait wut?". She wasn't planning on being an assassin for Shirou's sake. It was pretty much an accident.
The manga's problems were deeper than that really. The problem is the manga makes it look like she was raised as a legit magus, and not an experiment, which should eliminate like 90% of the issues surrounding Sakura, but she is magically the same. She pitied Shinji because he wanted a place in a really shitty family and worked hard. If they are raising her legitly, like, numerous things shouldn't even be happening in the storyline. Like how she would probably have joined Shirou if she was a regular magus and fell for him. Nothing about how it was written concerning her made much sense, the rape wasn't even a factor.It's kind of the same situation with the FSN manga and how it didn't delve into any of that.

Darn, I missed the Mirai Nikki discussion? Awww.
Uryuu Minene for best character! :V

+1 Fletching. Some parts of the narration may get a bit too dramatic for my tastes, but overall it's a great story.
Linger: Complete. August, 1995. I met him. A branch off Part 3. Mikiya keeps his promise to meet Azaka, and meets again with that mysterious girl he once found in the rain.
Shinkai: Set in the Edo period. DHO-centric. As mysterious figures gather in the city, a young woman unearths the dark secrets of the Asakami family.
The Dollkeeper: A Fate side-story. The memoirs of the last tuner of the Einzberns. A record of the end of a family.
Overcount 2030: Extra x Notes. A girl with no memories is found by a nameless soldier, and wakes up to a world of war.
Eternally vainglorious.
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster;
And treat those two impostors just the same,

I do not understand that statement.

Also, throwing up a +1 for Peorth. I didn't even know that was listed in the OP.
It's a shame that the author moved onto another fandom. She was a gem, a freaking gem.

Forest is a vampire who's a bit too good for her own good and doesn't know when to leave things alone. Armed with a ridiculously large hand gun, martial arts skills, a bitching pony car, and a love for pop culture she fights the forces of evil. Urban Fantasy 80's Style.
Finally read up on The World Without. Pretty well-written, everyone's in-character as far as I can tell, and the Shirou parts are disturbing enough to make me cringe. Don't care much for the Yuri in it, but eh. +1 from me.
That fanfic really made my day!

Miscellaneous Info
Aw, did she? A shame, I really enjoyed that one-shot. It was the perfect mix of smut and plot.
Uh, I'll just run down the list of fics long overdue a rec from me. Or at least the ones that made a serious impression on me, it's been a while since I've read a lot of them and some stories I need to finish. Like Lancer Gets Serious.
Tainted Ideals, Postnuptial Agreements, Shinderella, The Hound and the Blacksmith for long stories get a like.
Lunatique gets a like. I'd give it more if I could. Objective: Emiya also gets one.
My one Dislike to In Flight.
And I'd like to throw one new entry on the list, Battle Continuation by F-1.
AU UBW in which Caster has all but won but Shirou and Lancer aren't ready to give up. Short and poignant.
Probably have a lot more I could stand to add a Like to. Perhaps later, after some rereads. I'll just edit my stuff in myself if Kyte's busy.

That's all, folks!
Don't people usually have to list reasons for negative recs?

We have a 200 page thread on why he might dislike IF. What would be more interesting is what people like about IF, but I digress.
Explain why I dislike In Flight? But how will I know when to stop?
Well, I can give reasons for the likes and dislike.
Tainted Ideals: for an alternative interpretation of Shirou with a new Origin and raised by Kotomine Kirei, all around entertaining writing, and a fun cast of characters. Good fight scenes, good character interaction and development, and trolling. Worth your while.
Postnuptial Agreements: if In Flight is in any way responsible for bringing this fic about, the Postnuptial Agreements singlehandedly justifies IF's existence. OC lead that's just shy of a Byronic Hero, entertaining banter, good chemistry between Meriwether and Benitsuba, and the fic is so memorable I actually remember the characters' names half a year after reading it. Perhaps not flawless, but still novel and while this is no longer relevant, it had rapid fire updates when it was In Progress that was most pleasing.
Shinderella and Objective: Emiya. It's Moczo. He's comedy gold, probably the best at comedy on this site. If he's not he's a top contender. The crack is strong and the plots are delightfully deranged.
The Hound and the Blacksmith: been a while, but the banter and humor entertained me. Lancer's also quite the selling point.
Lunatique for being one of the best stories I've ever read, period. Good framing device, high flying action between two epic combatants, refined wit and dialogue, it promised action and awesomeness and it delivered. It met the high standards and hype it sets for itself, which is humbling. One of the best stories in the fandom.
In Flight....it's long, it's bloated with too many characters to develop, and it bored me so much I stopped reading entirely with no desire whatsoever to continue. Ignoring entirely the misrepresentation of Shirou's abilities and his new personality, for me it failed to even set stand on its own feet in its own universe. I called it bloated and I stand by it. Had potential, I can remember a few scenes, once upon a time I enjoyed it. It's long since overstayed its welcome though. Could have been better with a smaller cast. But hey, its suckiness may be the reason for Postnuptial Agreements' awesomeness, so I can't hate on it too hard.
That's all, folks!
