She had potential to be good, has she not been a Tamamoface wannabe and I liked the idea of Nega Weapon - a Beast that utilizes mankinds weaponry. Then they had her say Tamamo-chan in Lb3 and I got the biggest facepalm. Then the whole meteor explosion happened with very flimsy connection to the Weapon thing AND Tamamo that went nowhere other than a plot twist. Surr whatever girl.

Then they must have manboobs and being completely naked in their final FA, waiting to pounce on you. That happened.
Koyan would have been sick as the manifestation of prey animals hatred towards humans, using the weapons of humanity against them. Maybe have her manifest through the Chernobyl disaster if you're really attached to that whole aesthetic.
All of the Tamamo, Amaterasu, Shrine Maiden, and fucking Tunguska meteor stuff is totally incongruous with that base premise, and just made the whole thing a giant cluster fuck conceptually.

Machines do not lose their worth when a newer model appears.
Their worth (life) ends when humans can no longer bear that purity.
I mean, if you take away the Sherlock plot and the whole fight against Lancer Artoria, Camelot would have less content than a Lostbelt prologue too. What the fuck is supposed to mean?
Because you are too young. Or too stupid. Or both.
In leu of what would happen in Tunguska? Sure.
The problem was always them trying to have their cake and eat it too instead of focusing on a single concept for Koyan and hinting at it better throughout the story. Not her gettin her own chapter necessarily.
That's pretty much the reason I personally disliked the whole reveal. It just felt it was created for that stupid plot twist and that's it. It also made me feel a bit disappointed about Taikoubou being summoned to deal with Daji and not get that fight, would have been nice to see how that fight would have gone like in Fate.
And it's honestly cheating a bit to make her look like Tamamo and have the same VA as Tamamo to trick us. What a massive coincidence that they have the same voice and looks to the point we're lead to believe she's Tamamo right? Heck, the whole reason I rolled for her is because Tamamo is my favorite Extra heroine and despite the plot telling me she's not Tamamo it's just impossible for me to separate Tamamo from Koyanskaya.
Can I interrupt this argument to ask if someone can find the post about how to get around region block for buying quartz that was posted here (or maybe in another thread) at the start of anni? I literally can't find it again.
I do have this reddit thread saved, though I'm not sure if it's helpful. It's quite old.

This is honestly true and I don't see how that wouldn't apply to even the best Servants to be honest. It took freaking Morgan quite a long time to finally have be in an Event... and she's honestly a plot device if you remove the "Cute Kons" deal. I mean yeah, LB6 beefy as fuck but nothing about her time in Chaldeas outside of Valentines? Again?
King Hassan all but basically vanished after Camelot and Babylonia and barely, if ever, appears which makes sense character-wise but dear lord, you think having him around a little more would have something occur due to his extreme Paganism vs. the Divine Spirits we see.
Even Romulus Quirinus had his sole Interlude... becomes Boudica's 28th because god-fucking-dammit, we need to make Boudica work because we keep putting her in the same damn box as Berserker Penthesilea rather than having her actually get the fuck over it!
Okay, that came out of nowhere...
Either way you get the point, I don't think Taigong not being in any other Event after Tunguska should be a mark against him when it's rare as hell for Servants to quickly get Events for themselves that isn't just immediately making them superfluous or DEM(Okay yeah, Morgan technically is broken as hell even as a Servant as she's like Merlin tier but come on, not everything that has a character in it has to have them actually fight, see Caenis).
