It's a good think Saber's not a man, then.

But two men must enter. That's very clear in the rules. If Saber is known to be a woman she can't enter Thunderdome. It wasn't Two Women Enter, One Woman Leaves.
Thunderdome was really more of the Gilgamesh vs Iskandar battle. Except that the rule became TWO MEN ENTER, THEN ANOTHER FEW THOUSAND ENTER LATER, THEN ONE MAN LEAVES.
And one BECOMES A MAN.

Does this make Waver and Iskandar Master Blaster, meaning that Rider is a brain-damaged manchild?
Because I can totally see that.
Question: Where do the games fall in a timeline? I can't remember and I'd appreciate it if someone could remind me or point me to where I can find out. Specifically, line up when Tsukihime, Kagetsu Tohya, Melty Blood (Actress again, Re-act, cadenza) take place. Like how Stay Night takes place 10 years after Zero in 2004, does anyone know specific dates of these games. When does Tsukihime take places, how many month(s) after does Kagetsu Tohya take place after it and when does Melty Blood take place following that. I just want confirmation please.
Day 1 of Tsukihime starts Thursday Oct 21, 1999 with Melty Blood taking place roughly 1 year after. Shouldn't Kagetsu Tohya happen in between the two?Originally Posted by Kiiam

Really? That early? I always thought the events of Tsukihime and Fate/Stay night both took place in the early 2000s. But okay then. So how long does Kagetsu Tohya take place after that and how long does Melty blood take place after that?
Laugh heartily at anyone who definitively gives a year date for Tsukihime. Really.

Well given how close to the end of the year Oct 21 is, you might as well say the tsukihime storyline does take place early 2000's, since Kagetsu Tohya and Melty Blood almost certainly do.
Well retcons aside there's only 1 logical year for Thursday Oct 21.Laugh heartily at anyone who definitively gives a year date for Tsukihime. Really.

Kay. But is there at least some accurate timeframe for when Kagetsu Tohya takes place after? Same with Melty Blood. Like, do they take place weeks, months, or a year or two after Tsukihime? That's the primary thing I want to know.
Kagetsu Tohya and Melty Blood both say they happen roughly a year after Tsukihime.
Yo, question on EMIYA/Shirou. By the time they manifest UBW, or have awakened to their RM, they're made of swords 24/7, right? I always got the impression that when Shirou starts healing and replacing wounds with swords, the swords are replacing what used to be strictly flesh and blood. Actually sprouting swords isn't his default state, but they are permanently made of swords. Is this correct or am I forgetting something?
That's all, folks!
All 5 is kinda nonsensical.
She can block the third magic! OH NOEZ

Off by a year, 2005.Like how Stay Night takes place 10 years after Zero in 2004,
I'm not sure if it was ever outright stated, but I believe he does slowly start going towards that state of being made of swords. The issue in Heavens Feel was twofold, Shirou drifting away from his old ideals, and of course, Archer being however many untold years ahead of Shirou in the development of that. I'm curious about the true answer to this as well, though.
Writer of crappy fics, I hope you might derive some enjoyment from them.

Huh. By some random calcs I did by grabbing stuff off T-M wiki (Ciel's birthdate and age), I got 2000 for Tsuki, and Tsuki and Fate are supposed to be separated by less than a year.
Now the question is: Is T-M wiki right? :V
It must be wrong. There's a specific birthdate for Kirei (one of the only stated outright dates of day/month/year) and an age as of the Fate/Zero stated in the materials somewhere. It gives you 1995 as Heaven's Feel 4, so 2005 is Heaven's Feel 5 going by that firm date.
It's in Seika's notes somewhere, but stuck at work so can't find it.
EDIT: Scratch that. It's not dd/mm/yy but it is a definite year. From Fate/Zero: "...Kotomine Kirei. Born in 1967 …”
(Fate/Zero, Volume 1, Act 1, Part 2)
Q: Regarding Kotomine Kirei's life, could you disclose more details? Such as at what age did he graduate from the seminary, and at what age did he become an Executor.
A: … At the age of 28, he lost his father Risei, and was given the position of a priest, albeit unofficially.
(10th Anniversary Q&A)
So yeah, 1995 for HF4 most likely.

That always bugged me. Anubis isn't the god of the dead. He's the god of mummification (which was apparently important enough to the Egyptians that they had a god for it). Osiris is the god and judge of the dead and he is the one who weighs your soul against the feather.Castah
conversational reference from the lets play, castah spoilers unavoidable, of course
Yeah, unfortunately it is rather in-character for Nasu to needlessly complicate things like that. Don't know why he couldn't just go with "she was a kitsune who wasn't really evil and just had a bad rep". Wanking her as some aspect of a goddess she's only vaguely connected to and then saying "but she can never have her goddess powers" seems kind of pointless to me.
I am amazed no one made the obvious MLP:FiM joke. I sifted through all these pages expecting one and nothing...
Although I know Iskander's MR is shit and its never stated anywhere that he has resistence to lightning attacks, I have to admit that did make me laugh. The real question is can Roa actually aim the lightning well enough to strike Iskander instead of the bulls or the chariot while Iskander is flying around on the damn thing. Nevermind the RM cuz' if Iskander can actually use that Roa is dead meat.
This is actually a regular thing? Wow, glad I missed that last year...
You actually went there...
Yeah, blocking someone's attempts to ressurect you and/or turn you into some kind of immortal being with near-infinite magic does sound kind of pointless.
That is a perfectly good and useful ability to have.
Would you want to be stuck as a Counter Guardian?
<Satehi> thank you based admin of justice, he/she who doth bring forward the true gospel
Ciel's age is "an eternal mystery, that even Nasu doesn't understand". If you've pinned it down, you're wrong!

Counter Guardianss aren't immortal, they're dead. :|
