Oh you're right. I guess I read the subs wrong because I took it (and the excalibur usage) to mean that he was Arthur (I haven't played that FGO event, so I know nothing), but I guess he didn't say that at all indeed. So I guess I've been talking BS haha. I guess I don't know who he is after all.

Oh, right, I read FsF as FSN. My bad. Yeah, I doubt many have read those. But they revealed his name in the 1st ep too though, right? Sure, at the end, but not sure I'd call that hiding.

We have quite a few more Sabers that use red as a primary or secondary color in FGO.

Oh, yeah I know. It was an attempt at a joke that this another saberface, but we already have 2 red saberfaces with the names Red Saber and Saber of Red.

this Saber a year ago for New Year's with his full name revealed and everything (actually coinciding with the preview release of this very episode).

Given that it coincides, why is it dumb?

I think Saber is one of the few servants in FsF where giving away their true name too early actually detracts from the experience a little.

I'm an anime only with Fate Stay Night, but I don't think many people go into Fate Stay Night not knowing who Saber is these days tbh.

I'm reasonably exited for this. Do we have a 4th red saber now? I thought he might be mordred at first, given the red.

That was a premiere I think right?

Hm, it does look like it, especially the shots with this user's Twitter handle. The text in particular has AIgen vibes.

Hooly shit, and KyoAni to boot? Sick

Jiavani twice this season? Very nice

Opzich niet per se raar als je het niet eens bent met iemand op dit vlak die veel upvotes heeft, je dan ook downvotes krijgt, hoe ziek andermans standpunt ook is.

Het Nederlandstalige deel van het internet is sowieso best wel giftig en hatelijk. Haat voor buitenlanders of niet-cis LHTBI mensen viert het hoogtij. Nederlandse Youtube comments bijvoorbeeld zijn ook verschrikkelijk op dezelfde manier. FB en Twitter gebruik ik niet, dus geen idee, maar als ik zie hoe mensen in mijn omgeving daarmee gevoed worden en hoe die platformen werken, denk ik niet dat het daar beter is.

Soms vraag ik me af of het Nederlands internet meer dan het Engelse idd niet gewoon vol zit met bots, of dat extreemrechts Nederland gewoon meer chronisch online is.

So many... Only counting inserts, OPs and EDs, here are some of my favourites:

• The AoT insert songs are incredible and this suite is even better.
• Grand Escape from Weathering With You
• Suzume's title track
• unravel, as cliche as it is
• Enigmatic Feeling from Psycho-Pass
• Signal from 91 Days
• Black Lagoon's OP
• The Garden of Sinners EDs
• Land of the Lustrous OP
• Watashi Dake Yurei (the SICKHACK song from BTR).
• Original Spice and Wolf openings
• Voracity by MYTH & ROID from overlord
• Hunting Soul from Dandadan
• Might be recency bias, but the OPs from With You In The Rain and Clevatess
• Fate/Stay Night Heaven's Feel EDs by Aimer

In this specific case I think it’s more of a western thing

Totally, since it's not a common name.

Damn, that's unfortunate. Unfortunately licenses are still country-based. You can access other country's Kobo stores, but I don't know how the library works for that. I guess you could try that. Just to double check: make sure you're filtering on English titles. Kobo defaults to searching only in my native English for me and then it finds nothing.

Do you mean from an EU company or just generally available in the EU?

In case of the latter: I'd recommend Kobo. I use that for most of my digital manga reading. Berserk is on it too (am in EU as well, not sure if same country. That might impact it). Kobo ebooks are also really easy to remove the DRM from.

Tbf, isn't that the case with most Japanese names in anime? Or any foreign name tbh. For example, my name is very close to an English name, just pronounced differently, but even after spelling out how it would be pronounced if I were to spell it in a way that matches English, it took quite a while for my English friends to pronounce it correctly.

I could try it. How heavy is it on the horror aspects? I tend to stay away from that.

Apart from that my fall 2025 recommendation is to get caught up on other stuff

Fair haha. Slow season I guess then

I've slowly started to try to catch up with this season, but so far, I've not liked any of them except Gachiakuta and May I Ask.

• Dark History Villainess: pacing is all fucked up. It's as if I'm watchibg a summary. Dropped after 3 eps
• Mangaka's Workplace: couldn't stand the MC. I don't typically mind characters like her, but she seemed super over the top anxious for no reason and over the same thing the entire time. Well for the time I watched it anyway. Dropped after 1 ep.
• Pass The Monster Meat: started out fine, but after a couple of eps it became messy. Dropped it after 5 eps.

If anyone has fall 2025 suggestions, I'm open for it (as long as it's on CR and Netflix. Can't be bothered to pirate atm).

Cliche, but Gamechanger. Last season in particular was just incredible. Favourite episode is probably the one where they'd be doing assignments through the year (forgot the name). I love MSN too though. Same with VIP. I enjoy Gastronauts to a lesser extent. Really depends on the guest. Same for Smartypants and Crowd Control. Dirty Laundry is good background noise.

Dat was Douwe Bob ja

Mostly Mangadex tbh. Very occassionally Weeb Central, Mangafire or Mangafox
