Being erased because you fuck up a little sounds worse than getting eaten by a giant.

Skadi is the worst conceptualized Lostbelt "king". Sync up Scatty and Skadi because of JP pop culture memes and a contemporary thesis.
Although this reminds me, what's the nature of Freyja and Bryn's relationship? I can't remember if there's an actual correlation or if I just imagined it.
My Fanfics. Read 'em. Or not.McJon01: We all know that the real reason Archer would lose to Rider is because the events of his own Holy Grail War left him with a particular weakness toward "older sister" types.
In the end that's a given. I don't personally feel all that bad about it since the circumstances of their world's not being pruned makes getting rid of that tree before the Alien god gets what he wants as well as the questionable conditions of the lostbelts (the fact that all of their maintainance so far has been rather questionable with varying levels of dictatorships keeping things under control helps), but in the end you're still going to interact with the residents of this town and Mash is an overly sensitive person.

I'd say they're kind of even, one is painless but your soul is completely erased i.e. reincarnation isn't even an option anymore for you, you still have the likely hood of being eaten by 8 legged crocodiles, and you might just slip a little before 'god' decides you're not worthy of his world.

I think the main argument Nasu wanted to show in lb4 is that what arjuna is doing, arbitrarily throwing away things that "aren't necessary" is a micro look at how the pruning system is. Just instead of arujuna we have us deciding what's necessary and what isn't. Instead of people being gone, it's entire timelines.
Either way LB4 is all about being a hypocrite in this sense.
Okay, so Arjuna snapped the dog. We snapped that dog in every single timeline that diverged too far.

Machines do not lose their worth when a newer model appears.
Their worth (life) ends when humans can no longer bear that purity.

Also, really its the Alien God's fault these LBs have been dredged up from the trash folder where they languished in obscurity, not deleted completely by the World. If not for it, these LBs could have continued their own business and no one would get erased.
