Unpopular TM opinions you have

[You]

That's precisely what I was calling stupid.

Stupid as in humans are stupid to have taken on this perspective or stupid as in Nasu should only consider science the same way as a grad student in the fundamental sciences might rather than this social science nonsense.

The former.

[Hermitfold]

The former.

I mean, if the collective unconsciousness of humans places our prosperity as a species as it's priority, then science is indeed the way to go.

[Ideofago]

That's the problem. What is "science"?

im going to go sleep but I already figured out why i just want to hear your reasoning from the horse's mouth or some other saying that matches

martin heidegger - a today little-known but in his time influential fantasy author from southern germany. a contemporary of lovecraft, howard, ashton smith. his later work turned in a more tolkien-ish direction. his short story "die frage nach der technik" may be instructive

[Mattias]

Wait, I thought Heidegger was a philosopher?

I am late to the party, but that's just my jam.

Unpopular opinions:

The Arcueid (and Ciel) route is not good, Tsukihime is carried by the Far Side.
The Kara no Kyoukai: Boukyaku Rokuon movie (Azaka movie) is one of the better ones because Azaka.
Shirou and Kotomine are the best characters in F/SN.
Shinji is a prat, but he receives much more hate than necessary.
Rider's outfit isn't hot, it's offputting. Complete shambles if you ask me.
Ciel in the remake is literally Mash, zero effort. (not so unpopular but who cares I really dislike it)
The fanart made and put in Fate/Hollow is in very many cases bland, ugly and offputting.

can't think of more from the top of my head

"Shirou and Kotomine are the best characters in F/SN" is very popular.

"Tsukihime is carried by the Far Side" I don't know if it is popular, especially now that only Near Side is remade, but I personally think should be.

[DirkdeZwijger]

> "Shirou and Kotomine are the best characters in F/SN" is very popular.
Yeah I guess you're right, because they are. Out of the people I speak to on a daily who also have watched fate think otherwise, which is offputting.

I forgot to mention that Fate/StayDeen is not bad considering their initial task at hand. I have proudly rewatched it.

Are all these people you speak to anime only watchers or something?

Yea this isn't that unpopular a take. It just gets a really strong reaction over how wrong it is.
(pssst, I think the comparison is surface-level at most and completely stupid)

"Tsukihime is carried by the Far Side" I don't know if it is popular, especially now that only Near Side is remade, but I personally think should be.

I wouldn't say "carried" is the right word, but there is a pretty big consensus that Far Side is significantly better than Near Side in the OG.
As far as the remake goes, most ppl I've talked to about it aren't saying anything cuz we don't have Red Garden yet to compare.

[Hermitfold]

That's the problem. What is "science"?

Science is probably not really the best way to put it, but rather a model of the universe with physical laws that would benefit humanity the most, basically the anthropic principle.

Been reading Index lately in prep for the new volume and I actually thought this was Aleister Crowley for a second

[TheSeaDragon]

Mash? Maybe, i also woud compare Remake ciel to Rin but less fun. I actually find Noel more endearing, and is funny because i guess one of rasons se is so "patetic" is to make ciel look cooler

Lol, i creatd this tread and sure came a long way, it looks like some pinned tread now . Im a bit proud

Is that unpopular? Most people seems to agree plot wise Far Side is better. Arcuied and Ciel are just more popular because they're more charismatic and are the ones who do cool shit.

[TomPen94]

Ciel wasn't popular. She was the least popular of the heroines in the OG. Remake changed that... for now. We'll see how she stacks up after Red Garden comes out.

Mash? Maybe, i also woud compare Remake ciel to Rin but less fun.

The thing with Mashu is: Similar hairstyle & glasses, the senpai/kouhai thing, they are soft-spoken. That's it.
The comparison with Rin has a bit more merit, Ciel does like giving you a good infodump. I guess they also share the "must kill my emotions to do my thing but oh no i can't" thing, but that's where the similarities stop really.
