Heads up: this show is very dry and kinda bad. Sword fights are nice.
Also, it's loosely based a real person...and I better not see you hating on the talking skull!
That hurts man(always turn off images on mobile, not sure why they even added that 'feature')
They are recap.
You should watch Crest of the Stars: Birth though as that is an extra story involving Lafiel's parents.

R̶e̶c̶e̶n̶t̶l̶y̶,̶ ̶M̶y̶ ̶S̶i̶s̶t̶e̶r̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶U̶n̶u̶s̶u̶a̶l̶ Le Chevalier D'Eon 01
So, the premise: France, during the reign of Louis XV, seemingly somewhere between 1746-1756. Our titular chevalier has his sister murdered in a mysterious circumstances. He joins the secret police with the aim of finding the culprits of that murder. Covert meet ups with King and Queen transpire, secret organisations abound, magic hijinks ensue.
This was a weird one. I feel they could have easily made out 2 or 3 episodes out of all that happened here. Multitude of events play out with really no time to breathe between them. Maybe they were just being considerate and wanted to get to that supernatural moment so no one tuning for the next episode could complain about where things went.
I like what they have done with the setting so far. I was expecting the Louis XV to come off as an indolent fatass so this was a surprise. The guy with the biggest balls among all the Bourbons finally shown in what seems to be a favourable light. I'm 99% sure this particular D'Orleans is supposed to be dead for a long time now though. Not sure yet how I feel about the supernatural. The talking skull and one-sans soul taking control of oni-chans body does seem to take things bit too far. Oh well I knew about the latter when going into it so we will see how this develops. What else to say hmmm pretty good production values and nice music. Older D'Eon as narrator and that title card makes me think they will end this on revolution.
Woah thanks for showing me this. Definitely going to watch. Whats animegaf's impression?
All my money for a Caster route.
I'm willing to endure quite a lot for a few minutes of good sword sakuga.
But
It has a little girls voice.
It's name is Belle.
It's sporting a blond wig and a full blown noble attire.

So that was OK by the end I guess.
I still don't quite understand quite what happened in this series.
I guess violence solves all problems?
It's time for some birthday wishes!

You like the yandere type?
She didn't seem that bad for Kuzuki and that dude was damn right apathetic. She's just a bit crazy. Same with rider really (though what she did is likely worse).
That's true, I should have said that the only exceptions are shows with no significant male characters in them. That is right, in those shows it's usually not like that. And yeah, Haibane Renmei and Kino's Journey are two of my favorite animes too, of course (#s 2 and 3 on my list behind only Lain).There are plenty of shows where the main female character doesnt give a shit about men or isnt even exposed to their presence at all. My two favorite shows, Haibane Renmei and Kinos Journey feature strong female characters that either rely on other female characters for support or not at all. In Kinos case she wouldnt hesitate to blast a man out of existence if he threatens her. There are quite a few other examples of female characters who dont require a strong male presence. Most anime males are weakshit to begin with.!
I am by any grounds other than backwards, anti-fairness "faux equality" measures such as opposing affirmative action. Sometimes you must treat people unequally in order to further the cause of equality. That's what affirmative action is about, and that's what this is about too.Excuse me, but you are not espousing equality.
She is a female character. The two are not separate. Not in anime. Anime is sexist, and characters are virtually always stereotyped by gender -- and Nozaki-kun is very definitely not an exception! Ideally we could do as you say, but we can't.Equality would be viewing Kashima as a character first, and a woman second.
Not at all. I'm saying that they shouldn't when it's written as sexist trash, as it is in this series. Not in every single possible case anywhere. If someone said "you can hurt any man anytime but never a woman" it would of course be sexist, yes. But the sexism women face is far worse.In the terms of a slapstick comedy, she was fulfilling the role that her character was assigned. What you are trying to say is that women should never ever fill that role.
I'm being "ridiculed"? Maybe in your mind... anyway though, I didn't say that people were going to emulate it! This is like the question of whether videogames cause violent acts or not, really. I don't think they do, but they definitely do reflect the feelings towards violence, or sexuality, in the society that created the game. That is, the way the "other" -- women, foreigners, gay people, what have you -- are treated in media does matter because it shows what values the society believes.Yes, domestic violence is bad, as is all violence. I am not trying to argue against that. There is a reason, however, that children are taught to separate fiction from reality at a young age, and I feel that this is why you are being ridiculed for this argument. A woman being hit as punishment, just as a man being hit as punishment, is a heinous act, but I doubt anybody watching this show would try to emulate the violence on display, at least on a scale that exceeds playfulness. Anybody who would would be deemed maladjusted in our society.
You are about as wrong as is possible on all points here.Yeah she's the best character in there aside from all of the other characters.And that disappointed me very much.Nah she's all right but she has boobs. =[
Really? Fate/Kaleid Shirou's mostly inoffensively useless. It's a nice change from the idiot sexist jerk of F/SN. He's still a terrible character, sure, but not as bad as he is in F/SN.Still better than Shirou though. My hate for him has never burned so brightly before watching this show.
I know, trying to think of an alternative to that stupidity is exactly one of the main reasons I think Rin/Lluvia would be great! Rin is a great character (one of my favorites in the franchise), and Shirou one of the most annoying ever. The terrible protagonist is of course F/SN's biggest weakness. He's much less prominent in Fate/Kaleid, thankfully, but I wish they'd gotten rid of the stupid "everyone loves Shirou" thing in this alternate universe too. Ah well. (Also of course, yuri is nice, and the F/SN universe could use some. I'm not counting the Fate/Kaleid's fake-yuribaiting (I mean, Rin is hot for Shirou in every incarnation of Fate/stay Night including every route and all the spin-off material.
Just so you know what's in store for you:

Aside from the potential vampirism and serial rapist implications..
Seriiously you should at least properly read UBW and HF rather than base your entire analysis of the characters on the shitty DEEN adaptations. There is a reason why Rin likes Shirou and it's not simply because he's the MC.I know, trying to think of an alternative to that stupidity is exactly one of the main reasons I think Rin/Lluvia would be great!

DEENime is a fine adaptation, just because the Fate route was actually that awful and even I didn't think much of Shirou until the basement scene. I'm sure though that the upcoming UBW adaptation will change the general impression people have of the guy.
UBW was the perfect choice really. Whoever switched it from Fate made the right call all the way through. It's really Shirou's route moreso than the other two.
All this Fate/Stay Night talk has me wondering:
Was the actual Fate/Stay Night visual novel any good?

F/sn is a very unpolished work, has a lot of great ideas and characterization that I'd say easily stomps Zero's but the plotting is sometimes a bit messy and that's where Zero stomps sn. The thing is UBW's narrative is very concentrated with a single thematic conflict that it wants to develop so it's going to feel very different from Zero, where as the Heaven's Feel path is going to feel more familiar to anime-onlys where it has a number of character's arcs running parallel reaching satisfying conclusions.All this Fate/Stay Night talk has me wondering:
Was the actual Fate/Stay Night visual novel any good? I mean, I know it got a horrible adaptation by Studio DEEN and now ufotable's taking a shot at it.
But is the UBW route in the game a good enough story, since that's what this upcoming show is going to cover? I know it's insanely popular, but then again, SAO is also insanely popular, so I'm not sure what to expect.
Because after finishing the amazing Fate/Zero, this is quite concerning to me.
I really hope this is true. I'm really interested to see how /Stay Night follows up after Fate/Zero.

The 2nd cour of UBW is going to be pure fucking gold. Action all the way through, badass fights and climaxes, and Gilgamesh getting that pissass smirk knocked off his face.
I'm so hyped for Spring.
UBW is great I'd say HF is middling though a good climax. If you've read or watch Zero your better off skipping Fate because there's not much there outside of Shirou and Saber "romance".
UBW is the most concise, to the point and thoroughly thought out. It's one long argument about Shirou's character, and issues of a completely selfless life.
F/sn is a very unpolished work, has a lot of great ideas and characterization that I'd say easily stomps Zero's but the plotting is sometimes a bit messy and that's where Zero stomps sn. The thing is both Fate and UBW are very concentrated with a single thematic conflict that it wants to develop so it's going to feel very different from Zero, where as the Heaven's Feel path is going to feel more familiar to anime-onlys where it has a number of character's arcs running parallel reaching satisfying conclusions.
It should also be noted though that F/sn has a really bad translation, where the translator did the job back when he was in high school and not only was still learning Japanese but English as well, so lol. Though the filler and infodumps are superfluous it's no where as bad in the original language than it is in the terribad tl job.
That sounds tempting. :|The 2nd cour of UBW is going to be pure fucking gold. Action all the way through, badass fights and climaxes, and Gilgamesh getting that pissass smirk knocked off his face.

I can't wait for all the smug coming from Archer each saturday, that man is gonna make me wanna go out and get a tan.
