The BAMBOO BROOM DIARY (Nasu and Takeuchi blog)

[Byegod]

The more you translate the more im side-eyeing nasu's blog

But do you mean guro as well?

[Petrikow]

No.

[Byegod]

Ah i got confused

Interesting to see these old blogs, are there any missing that didnt get archived since you mentioned he fucks up previous ones usually?

Jeebus christ, how much fucked up manga was Nasu into?

I don't know if I'd say "Nasu was into fucked up manga" so much as "fucked up manga was the norm for boys" in Japan from the 70s-90s. It's very telling that Petri had to explain what Bastard!! is for a modern audience; it used to be huge. In Japan it was serialised in Shonen Jump, to give you an idea of how accessible it would've been. Meanwhile in the West, from my memory Bastard!! especially was popular in mid-00s anime club culture, it was cool and edgy and naturally popular with middle schoolers, back before school libraries wised up to manga content and started getting more selective with their acquisitions.

It's more an indication of how mainstream tastes have changed, if anything. Berserk is from the same era, and though it's older, Devilman was in a similar vein. I kind of wonder why exactly that era of ultra-violent, ultra-sexual manga came to an end.

I dont really find bastard that extreme, I thought you were all referring to something else honestly

and if memory serves jp moms did request censorship for things like kamen rider in the past so its not like jp is averse to censorship or whatever for there stuff aimed "at kids"

Seriously? Bastard!! is what is considered fucked up nowadays?

[Five_X]

Tem's wording, not mine. Bastard!! is pretty emblematic of that kind of tits-and-gore genre, if you can call it a genre. There's still a lot of ecchi manga around today obviously but as far as I'm aware it doesn't have the ultra-violence of older stuff that made it so distinctive.

[Ideofago]

I apparently didn't read a page worth of thread. I haven't heard of Bastard, but if it's noted for being extremely graphical, I'm expecting something super fucked up, not Elfen Lied. If it's on Elfen Lied levels of gore, it's just teenage edge, which is much more understandable.

[Petrikow]

New blogpost.

[AmADo VII]

it's kinda confusing.

so Oryou is Izanagi's daughter, but only in Gudaguda universe?

[Petrikow]

Gudaguda is as un-canon to the Fate worlds as the Servant universe.

God bless you Nasu I never doubted.

[AmADo VII]

then we will never get canon Shinsengumi or sengoku warlords.

Statement is vague so it goes even further than that I'd say. Prob included a bunch of other stuffs. But the key is that gudaguda is like servantverse vs normal fate.

In other words, it's its own thing and shouldn't be taken as 100% applying to the rest of the setting. Given Redline that makes complete sense.

I guess that clears up the increasingly different purposes/effects of the spear, but I can't believe they did my boy dirty like that.

This update marks... the start of... something...!

Hm, is it Christmas? The time for it is right!
Ok, that's enough for a boldfaced lie intro.
The Gudaguda Sakamoto Is In Trouble event concluded.
How many Detective Missions did you complete. 80 here.

Today's update is not a status report, just a think I have to talk about as the lore advisor.
It's a really minor thing, but it matters for balancing with other stories.
I'd appreciate if you don't sweat the details.

Keikenchi already explained about the Gudaguda Series in Koha-Ace, but it's been a long time, so it bears repeating here.
The Gudaguda Series has always be a spin-off to Fate/... Actually, more like a parallel series.
Part of its lore is different from Fate/'s world.
The biggest differences being about:
The background and characterization of Nobunaga and adjacent characters (Tenkai included), Himiko, Counter Guardians, Sakamoto Ryouma, and Oryou.
When he consulted me about Oryou's lore and characterization, I worded my permission as:
"That doesn't mesh with Fate/'s worldbuilding, but their relationship is beautiful, so you got my OK. Do your worst!"
So note that even if Oryou was revealed to be you-know-who, the you-know-who is Fate/'s world is a different character.
The ancient Japanese mythology lore in the Gudaguda Series, much like Servant Universe content, is not exactly like how it goes in the main course of Type-Moon fantasy.

TL note: The mistake on Ryouma Is In Trouble's title is Nasu's not mine.
133 Detective Missions here.

[Rafflesiac]

269 here

I'm kind of confused here. Is GudaGuda referring to the chibi stuff or Redline?

[Comun]

The whole series. Koha-Ace, FGO events, and Redline.

[Quoren]

Seems kind of a pointless distinction to make when the worldbuilding will probably never overlap anyway. It's likely mostly so KK doesn't have to report to Nasu on every little thing he does, but still weird nonetheless.
