Also sometimes it's used a projectile weapon by a blonde girl.

You aren't exactly being very specific here.

In any case, as one would expect of a company named after it, the moon features heavily in many stories. It serves as the setting for Fate/Extra (in a roundabout way, though). Tsuki no Sango is perhaps the work that most directly involves the moon. There's also a lot of information about Crimson Moon (aka, TYPE-MOON, the Ultimate One of the Moon) spread around in supplementary stories and material pertaining to Tsukihime.

Well, I'm not being specific because I don't know shit about it, but I'm guessing I'm looking for info regarding Type-Moon. So basically just read Character Material and the sorts and I'll find the info, and not actually in the main VNs like F/SN, Kagetsu Tohya, Witch something something etc, yea?

Curtain 1: The moon is a dude who struck a deal with the CEO of Hotel Earth to offer his tech for some new security robots to be built, but is secretly trying to orchestrate a takeover of Hotel Earth to rebrand it as a branch of his own Luna Resort, except both the CEO and the hotel guests thought he was pretty sus and kept him at arm's length until an old man kicked him out of the hotel and back to the moon, where he sits waiting for one of the robots to get as good at being him as himself.

Curtain 2: The moon is an avant-garde case for a supercomputer designed by voyeuristic aliens to record everything that ever happens on Earth, and hacker wizards from Earth found a way to plug themselves into its deathmatch-themed Matrix.

Curtain 3: The moon is a rock where people of the future used to live.

Appreciate the non-spoiler explanation, I understood nothing lol

I was going for Arc, particularly that one volleyball scene in Carnival.

I'm guessing you're going for Zel in the CM fight?

Well, I'm not being specific because I don't know shit about it, but I'm guessing I'm looking for info regarding Type-Moon.

The first few minutes of this, followed by the three parts of that, and then CTRL+F'ing 'Crimson Moon' and 'Brunestud' here will give you relevant info. For ancient Notes-related info, see this. Additional context is in Tsukihime's True Ancestor infodumps, I guess.

Armed with the Knight Arm "Real World"

For some unfathomable reason the 'of the' got cut in the translation losing thus the possible reference to ZA WARUDO. 0/10.
On a side note I am curious from where people got the "final boss" stuff from. I know the interview which I am 99% sure is the sole source for type-moon in the context of notes and there it says nothing about a "final boss".

Is revealed at the very end, to be exact.

[Nanashi(kari)]

Yeah, but that justs says he will show up near the end. If I were to deduce something from this I would say he would be the last boss rather than the penultimate boss. This is what bugs me.

[Leftovers]

Well, fuyuki goes with 'penultimate boss' as an interpretation of 最後の一歩前で. The order of last and second-to-last bosses was generally imagined on BL through a combination of that plus ORT being compared to "a secret boss stronger than the final boss", so it depends where and when you saw who being called what, eh?

[Nanashi(kari)]

I was talking about fuyuki referring him as "appears as a "boss" right before the final boss" (which I had seen on the wiki word by word years ago).

Interesting. I always imagined that if ORT were to have a role in a TM work it would be set before Notes because otherwise it coming to Earth early would be pointless (and because in CM its origin is given as ??? rather than Notes).

[nhat]

Is there a non spoiler post or video review of the released Tsukihime? I just want to embrace myself in case it’s worse then the original….which I hope not of course

[Gabriulio]

Dunno about spoiler-free ones, but the overwhelming majority agrees that the remake is superior. I've yet to see a negative review, but I'm holding black from saying it's an unanimous opinion.

[ILurkNoMoar]

If in a different timeline Waver had decided to participate in the 5th HGW like he had originally been considering and taken Gray along with him, then assuming that at some point Saber was defeated, would her soul have been absorbed into the Grail like all the other Servants or possessed Gray's body instead?

I have seen one negative review and it mostly boiled down to not liking the powercreep in the remake and things not being like the original.

[Petrikow]

I've seen plenty of people who dislike it, for one reason or the other.

The thing they seem to have in common is not being able to read it though.

[All fictions]

Is there a reasoning behind the title "Melty Blood"?

[Comun]

Blood alludes to both vampirism and Sion/Zepia's relation of ancestry. Melty... uh, invokes imagery of melting chocolate to indicate how the blood looks appetizing to Sion? Alludes to heat because MB is a summer story? I don't know, tbh.

[Petrikow]

I'm sure there is a reason but its hidden behind layers and layers of Nasu English much like how Fate/Stay Night was.

[Bombames]

Didn't he title it that just because it sounds kinda cool or something? I assumed it's the same thing with Melty Blood.

The first few minutes of this, followed by the three parts of that, and then CTRL+F'ing 'Crimson Moon' and 'Brunestud' here will give you relevant info. For ancient Notes-related info, see this. Additional context is in Tsukihime's True Ancestor infodumps, I guess.

Wait is this the Tsuikihime prologue? A nasuverse guide I have said to watch it before starting the VN but I thought they meant the first 10 minutes or so of the anime and didn't get the point in watching it
Either way thanks for the links, this looks exactly what I've been looking for.

When you have 2 lesser grails the closer one absorbs the soul.
Therefore likely, it would depend on the pull of Gray's body as a container at that moment vs the pull of the lesser grail at that moment.
In short, this would be a potential plot point the hypothetical author would use to drive the narrative in the direction they want.
