    Very pleasant to see the perfected versions up. That progress bar completion makes me almost as happy as Kingdom Hearts 100% does.

    I'm very eager to see the silly speculation on "How can we make the most people die." end after you finish VI.

    The answer to that question is easy Arc en ciel japan (and the rest of that hemisphere).

    That would require 16,250 Arc-En-Ciel blasts. What you seem to be thinking about is an Exterminatus.

    Of course, it kills more people, but in the end, visceral, personal deaths have more of an impact. Ex. Caster murdering children vs the Fuyuki fire killing many more than that.

    But anyway, it's simply bad storytelling to kill people for the lulz.

    Not exactly everyone will die to an Exterminatus, you know...
    At least Shirou would be still alive!

    Did you forgot about his excellent example of "people die when they are killed"?

    That's just silly. Of course Shirou would die. He's never dead in any of the decision trees that produce a Good End, only ever mostly dead. There's a difference.

    To begin with, my main point is that there's absolutely no justification to kill characters for the sake of watching people cry when they die. There isn't a reason to destroy half of the planet, it's expensive, inhuman, and would probably take the greater portion of the TSAB fleet from everywhere imaginable.

    No one's questioning that. Walker was just answering rhetorically.
    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.

    A single Arc-en-Ciel inside the atmosphere is enough to cause awful, awful things to all mankind! At the very least, it will create a enormous distortion in the local weather patterns, which will completely ruin nearly all farming within range. If the rainbow munches the crust (being a measly 20 km to the rainbows 100 km diameter), then the resulting tectonics would pretty much destroy life as we know it. Think a super volcano level 4.

    Not to mention that a disturbance like that will most likely cause hurricanes that will go on to damage other places. And even worse stuff.


    Unless you think that the rainbow's "destroy everything within range" ignores the atmosphere.

    That's true, yes. You could probably effectively destroy the planet (Or at least the biosphere.) with fewer than 16,000 simultaneous Arc-En-Ciel attacks. The calculation was done based on the principle of "How many do we need to destroy every exposed surface." In practicality, you wouldn't need more than a few precise attacks to resolve the issue of "Are there people alive?"

    Small nitpick though: It has a radius of 100 km, not a diameter.

    Still, you're completely correct. Rainbow Beams are more comparable to an Enuma Elish than to an MS Paint eraser.

    In my headcannon the Arc en ciel is now ea's imperfect replica (i know that it is technicly impossible but i don't care).

    It's funny because that's exactly what happened to Kamina.

    I just saw a mention of the Rainbow that downplayed it in my eyes, so I added my two cents.

    What fire are you talking about?

    Because now people are going to try and destroy things with the Arc-en-Ciel, much like earlier they were trying to kill people for the sake of it. That and powerlevels against EA, thanks to Walker. Or at least that's what I think IRUn is talking about.

    About 100, not 16000!

    Apparently, "Rainbow" is worse than Emmerich's Yellowstone Caldera or the Toba supervolcano...

    Guys, it's just clean Tsar Bomba, seriously, don't go into "lawl petatons" debate here.

    Nuke. Enuma Elish is a miniature black hole.

    In mine it is similar to the Kido Canon and Mugetsu from Bleach... or one of Madoka's Uber Headshots... or Shinji Ikari's Ragequit mode.

    Oh lawl, the memories...


    ...I hate those memories...

    You aren't supposed to ask an author that on a thread after 2 weeks pass. You are supposed to PM him/her and ask than.

    Now you did it. The author will punish you now by never updating this story again. And it's all your fault. ALL YOUR FAULT.

    It has been awhile, remind me where do we keep the torches and pitchforks here?

    I could swear they were by the pile of "For the torture of Original Flavor Shinji Matou" tools and rabid plot bunnies we keep locked up because it got old after awhile and should only be broken out when it advances the story. But really it has been some time since I felt the need to join an unruly mob on this forum so I just don't remember.
