>>52288667You understand peep, it's so hard to find people who do. There's a Gilgamesh that legitimately deserves the title of King of Heroes. There's a Shirou that never achieves the true understanding, and there's the Archer who becomes so jaded after being betrayed by his own ideals that he would rather alter the future by attempting to kill himself before he truly begins the path to UBW. That's part of the appeal of Fate, IMO, that reality is not just a linear story but something that can have multiple outcomes based on choices and ideals.
My friend is adamant on the belief that claiming Caliburn was a mistake because it set Arturia on the path of being permanently locked out of achieving badonadonks and forever being in a teenage body
I disagree but Seiba was my first waifu before I ultimately decided Ilya with Bazett as close second
