>>4079769I don't like Rin because of her tsundere antics, they are just a part of the whole package, which I still like very much. I have nothing against tsundere characters though and tend to like them generally.
>>4079781>It genuinely feels like Nasu chose to make her that archetype after writing her backstory and characterFunnily enough, Nasu stated before that he doesn't consider Rin really much of a tsundere. From CM:
>Nasu: [...]By the way, I think Sella is the only real tsundere character in "Fate". (laughs)>Takeuchi: Huh? What about Rin?>Nasu: She's more like a bossy smartypants, which may seem similar to a tsundere in some aspects, but they're totally different things.That aside, I am sure Nasu didn't write her to fit a certain archetype. It's more of a side effect to what he intended for the character and he ended up liking it and using it later.
