    Fate/stay night - Route Comparison

    This is the discussion (and debate) thread for which route of Fate/stay night is [INSERT ADJECTIVE] compared to another. No spoiler tags are required. And please try and be civil. Not one route is best, it's all based on his or her own opinion, so respect that.

    In Progress: Melty Blood
    Complete: Garden of Sinners, Fate/stay night, Tsukihime, Tsukihime Plus+Disc, Kagetsu Tohya

    Your waifu's boobies increase as each route progresses onto the next. There's my comparison.

    In FSN, a heroine's active role in the story of their respective route is inversely proportional to their breast size.
    My attempts at being a (fanfic) writer:

    Eclipse - a Saber Alter oneshot
    Requiem for a Race - Altrouge and Ortenrosse hunt the TAs ( 1/3 chapters, discontinued )
    Memories of a King - a 'Saber Origins' story ( 8/? chapters, discontiuned )
    A Small Warmth - a post UBW-Good oneshot, Saber/Rin
    Devil's Thrill - Narbareck hunts down a DAA Blackmore ( 10/10 chapters, finished )
    Boundary of Loneliness - Ryougi Shiki/Alphard Al-Shua oneshot. Lemon-flavoured

    you know, I always liked Rin's coat.

    It was swanky.

    Lancer's deaths become more pitiful as you go through the routes.

    So do Gilgamesh's.
    Fate - loses in an epic duel against his "chosen one", his perfect enemy. Goes all dignified and shit, like a proper King.
    UBW - loses in a duel against a faker. Panics like a little girl and loses an arm, and is subsequently absorbed by a Grail-hole
    HF - I don't think a comment is needed.

    Yeah, I just thought that too.

    Actually I take this back. Gilgamesh was killed by women, children and fakers in each route, there was no difference.

    If you're wondering why the thread disappeared after you posted, it's because you accidentally sorted the threads in this forum by "Last Post (Ascending)" instead of "Last Post (Descending)". When you see this in three years, be sure to switch it back and rejoin us in the present.

    That's kinda sexist, you know? A woman she might be, but Saber is still King Arthur.
    And Shirou might be a faker, but he still knows some fighting moves and had UBW. He's not Saber, but it's still less humiliating than dying to Sakura's black hole.

    Lolol putting your own values on Gilgamesh. How foolish can you be? Gilgamesh died to women and fakers in all the routes, there was no difference.

    In a shocking twist, Saber is the faker, Shirou is the woman, and Angra Mainyu is the children.

    Biggest comparison I've found:



    and



    Two different routes, practically the same meaning.

    Well, he was too whiny when people posted spoilers too, wasn't he?

    I doubt those who were playing for the first time (so late) would post in this thread.

    And I just noticed he didn't care about spoilers in this thread. Well, in his others thread he did, IIRC.

    The sex scenes in Heaven's Feel were a lot less forced and had more thematic meaning and plot importance than in the other two routes.

    Fate comes in a very distant second on that front with UBW in dead last, which just proves how much more it is the Archer route than the Rin route.

    The second Fate scene is more thematically meaningful, that's for sure.

    Both yall are going to have to explain what you think the various themes are ​for that to be taken seriously.

    Honestly the second one really isn't more meaningful then the first, it just doesn't have Rin. All the seafood metaphors and awkward sex are still there.

    Why, isn't it obvious? The second Fate H-scene is all about Saber realising that being a housewife is what she actually always dreamed about, and that all that King Arthur stuff was misguided stupidity that she has to cast aside so that she could finally find happiness as a woman. She trades her armour for a frilly dress after experiencing the healing power of The Dick.

    Or at least that's how I saw it.
