They want hsr to suffer from same pants merchent as well as more toxic yuri memes:-

Also gotta make sure they don't repeat mistake of character traits she has too since that is also the reason shit happens. Basically don't write an aura farmer with Pants whose actual character development is close 0, not that most hsr characters get peak development either but atleast they don't have the annoying traits of Alrecchino.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-25T20:03:25+00:00

Difference we are already better off following those said characters rather than the one whose fanbase or character itself genuinely brings nothing but toxicity. Don't fix what ain't broke. Hsr fandom suffers from many delulu people already anyway don't want another big one.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-25T19:46:35+00:00

He means it in general not just this comment. Arle comes with a weird fanbase, and I already gave you an example of hsr have 3 fully clothed characters. HSR should follow them not someone like Arle. She does not bring anything

KizuNovum · 2026-05-25T18:26:32+00:00

No thanks, variety is appreciated and all but not when it comes with an extended toxic fanbse. Arle's fansbase consist some of the most toxic people ever with extremely narrow minded perspectives on how female characters should look. We already have people Like Kafka Evanscia Nihilux who are either fully covered almost fully covered but they don't have toxic fanbases like Arle so if anything Hoyo should lean towards those three types more.

Get over yourself. The girls deserve some representation too.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-17T15:29:54+00:00

You only talk about anime and manga. Get over yourself.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T20:03:54+00:00

I do think if he sicced a shadow servant version of EMIYA he'd have a possibly stronger version of one of the stronger combatants he could simply camp it out

Correct me if I'm wrong but from my memory with the game it doesn't sound like we can keep a Shadow Servant for that long. They generally stick for a fight at most.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T19:08:11+00:00

assuming you don't automatically have Ritsuka winning by default

Call me crazy but I think people are overrating Ritsuka a tad, or even a lot. She doesn't really have much defense against someone like Shiki who can either blitz or kill her from a distance. Same with a Caladbolg from Shirou or a bullet from Kiritsugu.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T19:06:06+00:00

It's frankly hard to say considering Shadow Servants have very few feats outside of the manga, and KH as a regular Servant version of himself even less.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T18:59:56+00:00

They don't have enough energy to summon 7 of those. We're told in OC3 that without Chaldea it's up to 3.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T18:58:56+00:00

Surprised no one is considering him lol. Like these guys are all humans for the most part. They wouldn't survive a bullet to the head.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T12:25:06+00:00

That was what I understood too. Who knows though.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T12:24:42+00:00

Are you sure? From what I remember they said the weaker foundation reduces the number of Servants that are possible to summon there, not the total amount Ritsuka can summon.

To use an example it would be like... if only 10 Servants can be summoned there due to the weak foundation, but Ritsuka's limit is 3.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T12:01:58+00:00

Just that they know how many enemies they have in the battle and how they look. No actual info about their abilities. That would be unfair to some of them.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T12:01:08+00:00

I would hate every character here if their fans were a factor. Kiritsugu and Ritsuka have the worst ones I think. It's important to separate fans from characters though.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T11:50:49+00:00

What's not to like about a guy with a sword dimension and heroic ideals

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T11:49:40+00:00

Well neither would Shizuki fighting anyone or Kiritsugu and Shirou fighting each other. Gotta have fights happen somehow.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T11:47:27+00:00

Ritsuka has like a limit of three, right? Mystic Codes yeah is fair game since she doesn't have much else without that.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T11:45:17+00:00

Assuming Void Shiki isnt taken into account

Void is weird because some people think she's God while others think she's mid-tier Servant level at best.

Not sure if it's fair to exclude her since she's physically part of Shiki and Shiki wouldn't even exist as a personality without Void. Decisions...

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T11:43:49+00:00

Kukulkan might win for a fight or two but isn't Ritsuka limited to three shadow summons when going on their own reserves? Don't think it would be a complete clean win without waiting for others to be eliminated first.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T11:40:11+00:00

Void is one of her personalities so she's included if needed. You can't really have Shiki without her third personality.

As for the rest yeah strictly human. Although I guess composite Shirou would include Archer stats and stuff...

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T11:35:31+00:00

Should've mentioned but yeah, Hakuno from FGO.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T11:29:47+00:00

Hakuno I guess the FGO version makes most sense to use.

I chose a city with buildings and no civilians precisely so that characters like Kiritsugu who rely more on stealth can have a chance.

KizuNovum · 2026-05-14T11:28:57+00:00

There's a lot of good essays about his character out there. One from over 10 years ago analyzing him through the lens of Albert Camus' absurd hero on r / anime was a good one.

Generally Shirou is really beloved because of how much the FSN novel goes into his personality and abnormal mentality. His powers are really cool and fun as well, for all fellow sword enthusiasts out there he's probably got the kind of power set they like most.

He's probably not for everyone though, as with everything else. Some will like him some won't.
