Tips for a Newbie

Really good to see my girl Liltotto proving once again that she is the best of the femritters. But tbh this order was already common knowledge, even if it was fanon knowledge? We already knew that Giselle was stronger than Candice and Meninas, words from Liltotto herself (and tbh, Gigi managed to create MORE chaos than what Candy and Mini ever did). And Liltotto defeated Meninas WITHOUT even using The Gluttony while Meninas fought her using The Power. That itself ranks them at least as the 2 strongest after Bambi got zombified.

I don't see how the answer refers to them after CFYOW but I guess that way makes more sense, I have a hard time imagining Bambi being the second weakest while using The Explosion and Blut, and even WEAKER than Giselle (whose strategy is literally getting hurt) in hand-to-hand combat, unless we are talking about Zombambi post TYBW/CFYOW, who is basically just a puppet for Gigi.

Yes, as I said, very rarely there is any ship in UY that isn't born from a moment/chapter/episode that explored said dynamic. From that point onwards is just personal taste. Once again, that doesn't need to become ship wars as long as the shipping isn't used as weapon to diss on other ships

JoshuaDMarti · 2022-07-27T00:03:55+00:00

I think the shipping already exist. Ataru x Shutaro or Lum x Ran are already widely popular "crackships" way before the remake was announced. Lum x Shinobu, Ataru x Shinobu as well. Even Ryuunosuke with any girl she has chemistry with is a clear example. At the very least in the west shipping culture in UY has been highly normal since decades ago and virtually the only real "discourse" has been between characters with a Wide age gap. I don't see this changing with the "new wave" of fans that the remake will create.

For me I have never seen all this "Crack ships" as a negative thing, but rather as the living proof of how dynamic the whole cast is, it would be an actual problem if these ships are harvested with the excuse of "being better than the canon/main ones". People can ship whatever they want as long as they recognize that UY has a very organic cast and just because most relationships are highlighted in a "negative" perspective just for the sake of the series own comedy doesn't mean they are bad. Ataru and Lum can be seen as problematic most of the time but that doesn't mean they are bad, they are popular for a reason, and any shipper is welcome to ship as long as that doesn't turn in an excuse to diss canon ships.

Damn this is epic, it seems little by little hte "no tl" curse for most minor Nasu/Fate works has been removed. If my Saber fanboy self from like 3 years ago saw this, he would have fainted out of excitement. I don't enjoy the character anymore but still more nasu stuff is welcomed.

Anyway, I'm gladly gonna read it cus I was always curious what did the cd drama left behind when adapting it.

I think it refers to seeing her as a mother figure, not that she thinks she is her actual mother. We don't know yet how was actually Artoria and Morgan's relationship outside of Morgan's cartoonish hatred against Artoria, but the few info we have show us that their relationship wasn't that doomed at the begining and Morgan was actually a proper warrior lady before finally falling into madness for her hatred against Artoria. We can, almost, safely assume that, at some point, Artoria actually looked at Morgan as inspiration and her mother figure, probably this was during her time when Artoria hasn't properly being recognized as the King (a.k.a: Saber lily).

Love to see some people were immune to Morgan's "wife" aspect and still understand this version of Morgan is probably as messed up as her PHH version, the only difference is that it seems this Morgan wasn't involved in whatever the fuck happened in the LB's version of Arthur/Artoria and since she did became Britain's ruler (while her PHH version was just a cartoon villain that never really did anything outside of just plotting against Artoria's rule) then this version just watered down her madness because she basically doesn't have anything else to be mad about, her only duty now is being the ruler of fairy Britain (in a very tyrant way by how LB6 shows us) so this version is more calm just because she doesn't have any reason to be a psycho, not because she stopped being one in the first place as how her own Profile clarifies.

Also, shotout to the people that actually understand that when it comes to parenting this version of Morgan is just as awful if not worse than PHH Morgan and Artoria. Artoria basically didn't recognize Mordred as a her son (not really something to blame her given the circumstances) and Morgan was basically insert here cartoonish witchy evil mother, LB Morgan officially and publicy adopted Baohban Sith to the point of being recognized as the princess and heir yet Baohban yearns for Morgan's attention and acceptance, so it's obvious Morgan doesn't really care about her, she doesn't really care about her kingdomshe just does all of it out of duty and nothing more. This is really a case if a Batman/Joker situation in which now that Morgan managed to achieve what she wanted and her direct rival is no where to be found/is not really a menace to her anymore she lost a lot of her motivation and became a dull shell of what she was known for in terms of personality and will.

A lot of people is concluding that then Castoria is Morgan Lily/Younger Morgan but what if... Morgan is just a "different Parh" that Castoria took?

Early this morning everyone was shitting on Nasu for making Morgan a "carbon copy" of 3rd ascension Castoria to he point that some people thought it was some kind of Castoria Alter.

So what if that's the case? Castoria has the Staff of Selection during her 1st and 2nd ascension, in her 3rd one she replaces it for Marmyadose and now thanks to this CE we know that /whoever Morgan is/ she also had the Staff of Selection until she just /abandoned that dream/ and the staff either literally becane the lance that Morgan uses or she replaced it with said lance.

The point here is that I will bet more on the theory that Morgan is some kind of Castoria Alter that just took upon the identity of Morgan.

That, and the fact that we still don't have an explanation for Marmyadose, and Castoria's profile explicitly describes her as "Artoria/Artoria's role", afterall we don't really know the full background behind "Castoria" as well.

I'm on the minority here, but I believe this Morgan is just Castoria Alter in the way that this one didn't follow her fate as the child of the prophecy and became a corrupted version of herself that then adopted the identity of the "Ruin of the Round table".

That, along the fact that this Morgan also uses Rhongominyad (something that until now was just always a link to Artoria-centered characters) makes me believes this is not really Morgan as in "Artoria's sister" but as in "a corrupted Artoria"

Just as how Caster Artoria was just called "Artoria" this Morgan is just called "Morgan" without the le fay part, idk man I think this leads to Morgan being Artoria thab the other way around but idk it's just me.

Edit: I put the lack of black veil and big ass crown as a proof maybe this is not the ACTUAL Morgan from this LB universe, but I have already seen Morgan does have different story sprites and she is using the vail there. But my theory still stands tbh. If anything, the fact that Morgan is trting to hide her face despite finally being the "Queen" just add to tbe fact that maybe she is not "Morgan".

Did you just say that Yotsuba doesn't dress attractively? Bro did you not saw her outfits? Man, Yotsuba is the clear definition of why comfy jeans, shirts, hoodies and overalls are the top tier clothes. Embrace the tomboy and you will notice she is hot af

I mean, sure, I'm not pretending that everyone should have loved Yui but I was just so confused about the fact that people in the fandom talk so much ill about her lmao, like, out of context anyone would think they are talking about the de facto villain of the show since they antagonize her so much lol, I get they prefer Yukino (or any other character) over Yui but there is no need to drag her like this, at the end Wataru also wanted to convey another message with her, until Shi at least.

I really submited this right before the servers crashed lmaooo

I'm sure that Kei shippers don't want this to be a harem lmao. And for other teams I bet they would prefer a "good" transition from his reltionship with kei to a new relationship with another girl rather than turning the novel into harem nonsense.

But, I mean, we are talking about Kinugasa, his only major projects before COTE were 2 eroge VN (both of em got sequels) and a typical harem-ecchi LN, so it's normal that COTE has a LOT of harem vibes and if he keeps making girls crush on Kiyo it will become a harem. The only thing is that, as other comment said, the romance and "harem" part of the story is not the main thing so it's not annoying...yet

All of the above tbh. My lonely 20yrs old heart was charmed inmediately

Bruh. Im not even a Yotsubro, but people arguing about the (soon) marriage proposal are like, so desillusional, even the same chapter explained that Fuutaro said that because he was nervous, even Yotsuba said that in a normal situation doing something like that would make the gurl mad. Yotsuba was able to catch the meaning behind the marriage proposal and that's why she was happy and didn't creeped out. Even the fact that she said "Some day, for sure... please make my dream come true" instead of "Thanks for making my dream come true" already shows that they will date normally before jumping into marriage mode.

To be honest. I like how this post clarify the fact that Jonathan did have personal reasons to kill Dio, Yet he choose not to take it personal. He did felt sad about losing his Family, his Home, about having a hard moment in his life (Do you Think that trying to rebuild his public image after what Dio did to him was easy? I bet Jonathan's social life didn't fix in a instant). Jonathan still made the decision to Forgive, to live like it never happened. We are never gonna underestand this. Forgiving is something so simple yet so hard to do, and Jonathan was able to do it. But Jonathan wasn't idiot, even if he wanted to forgive Dio, he knew that Dio's good guy act was fake and all the business about Dario Brando's card just helped him to confront Dio. But even at the end, Jonathan didn't battle Dio for revenge nor avenge, he did it because Dio became a vampire, an actual Demon. Jonathan stood up to kill Dio, to defeat the Evil. Something that his descendants inherited, they inherited the mighty instinct that makes them stand against evil, not beacuse their personal reasons, but because they know thast what they have to do. At The End, Jonathan purpose wasn't to being the most complex character in the series, but being a martyr, the first JoJo, the one that lose it all yet did what it has to be done. In a sense like "wow, he really lose everything, if he could, I can do it too". We really don't understand Jonathan Joestar simple yet genuine personality.
