EDIT: Agita, that link doesn't work, you need to link to the image page on the channel.
It works just fine for me. A cookie thing?
I don't really want to make a SFW picture NSFW by linking to a channel page, so I linked to the imouto page for it instead. :P

Well, except goldy doesn't do sneaking at night like that. Hes loud and arrogant.

veekie, could you post this video in the Let's Play FSN thread, asking people to watch 3:00-3:48?
Heh, not likely I think. Lucky Star and most anime stuff in general have a certain stigma at SA.

It's also a little cold because of that.

"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~"

Tsukiyomi is one crazy bitch.
[spoiler]
Fate's got more than stone magic, hes a master of Earth magic in general.
Tsukiyomi can hurt him if hes not paying attention.
When his arm is cut off, he does not bleed.
Apparently he saved most of his harem from some bad situations before, which is why they're completely devoted to him, even if it involves the end of the world.

[/spoiler]

1: Yes, yes she is.
2:
[spoiler]Remember: He's technically trying to save the lives of those who wouldn't be able to survive when the Magical World collapses (the human population would be able to escape to Earth, but even if the demihuman portion did the same they would still disappear when the world reverts to Mars). They are following not only because he saved them, but because they believe this is the proper course of action.

The real problem is that Fate and company don't know that the Magical World lasts a minimum of 100 years after the present day, so their actions are preemptive.



This does lead me to an interesting theory regarding Chao though. She may be Negi's grandchild, but that doesn't mean she was raised by his actual children. She may have been raised by one of the demihumans, who ends up vanishing when the Magical World reverts to it's natural state. By stopping Fate during the present, Negi is ensuring this will happen and Chao's guardian will inevitably vanish, fueling Chao's desire to change the past. Stable time loop ensues.[/spoiler]

Bittersweet, and sort of a "Nice Job Breaking It Hero" moment for the main cast.

Meh to the new Bleach/Naruto.

[spoiler]Bleach: They should stop skipping fights. Sure it has been an 8 long fight so far, but wrapping it up 'off screen' in half a page is a poor climax. Oh and Azien is a super saiyen. Srsly, no bankai paradies. Captain betterthanu has long blond hair now.

Naruto: Hate battle round 2, expected. It's a little nice to see him use sage and his ultimate attack then get overwhelmed by hate. Better than Bleach's constant attempt to create new gaping plot holes and 180 turn arounds multiple times per chapter.
[/spoiler]

Rant
[spoiler]And whats this crap with not revealing shiki/bankai? There is NO reason in the story that they would with hold them. Someone is too stupid and fan influenced to reveal new powers of old characters.

And I really can't wait till the anima catches up to what is going on now. Bleach is the only series where the Anima is better than the Manga.[/spoiler]

Tiers explained in 8 sentences. With examples!
[spoiler]Tiers break down into who has spellcasting more than anything else due to spells being better than anything else in the game.

3: Focused casters. Bard, Beguiler, Dread Necromancer, Martial Adapts, Warmage.
2: Full casters. Favored Soul, Psion, Sorcerer, Wu Jen.
1: Elitists. Artificer, Cleric, Druid, Wizard.
0: Gods. StP Erudite, Illthid Savant, Pun-Pun, Rocks fall & you die.

I've completely given up on Naruto and Bleach. Now that the anime's caught up I'm watching a bit of the Pain stuff on Naruto because I thought there'd finally be no filler, but they still managed to stick some unnecessary filler parts in (ie fart jokes with Naruto).

I knew full well last week when I saw Aizen's body "cracking" that it would turn out this way. I couldn't believe it when I found out that I was actually right. I actually died a little inside at the end. But yes, I agree that an actual fight instead of it all being done in six seconds off-screen, would have been really nice to have seen. Maybe the anime will be kind enough to show it. Unlikely though.
I reject your reality, and substitute my own.

When God gives you lemons... it's time to find a new God.

We get a glimpse of some new pactio artifacts, some high speed combat and Negi critting shadow-Eva in more ways than one.

Looking at the trend, he'll probably end up all white. A... White Demon, if you will.

Alternatively, considering the series's nature, he'll probably end up as an incubus. :smirk

Exactly. She hasn't used it yet.

Saber has an ability which lets her expel bursts of mana to momentarily increase attack, defense or speed. It's now become powerful enough to kill Berserker.[/spoiler]

Well, pretty sure hes got incubus in him somewhere...come to think of it, his current color scheme could do for an angel too. Abstract wings, fire, lightning, wind and light, as well as a bleached looking appearance.  Dark magic or no, the elements he uses fit the wrath of god thing, up to and including the sword of light(though seeing as Eva is using one too, I wouldn't credit that too much)

I think, in part, its simply fighting with the sword revealed and a lot of raw mana. We know it's not the full Excaliblast, seeing as the forest is still there and Shirou is not vaporised
If its any consolation, I think Excalibur actually fell in power in the statblock, even though she has a lot of mana now to use it with.
