you being unsure of who the heroine for the third route is a cool perspective to see. There were originally going to be even more routes but most of them got cut, worth looking into once you're caught up.
If there is one thing I want flaming shark to remember above all else : don't forget about fate route, more specifically shirou and sabers characters, their relationship and the thematic point of fate route itself. You won't understand for a while, but it's not the case of each route being a separate thing. It's rather like stairs with each route building on not just the basic information you learn but the ideas presented and the characters themselves. Ubw retroactively makes fate route even better in hindsight especially if you reread fate route after reading ubw
Maybe you already remember this but since you were joking about Shirou getting Saber being a gacha pull, I just wanted to make sure you remember that actually there was a reason for it. They mentioned how a Master can use something related to a particular Servant as a catalyst to summon that particular Servant. Kiritsugu had put Excalibur's scabbard in Shirou and so the link caused her to be summoned.
The story this time around will be very different. In the Fate route, because Shirou allowed Saber to attack Archer, he was out of commission for a long time. Now with him not being injured so early on, he and Rin will be able to be much more active in the war, whereas in the Fate route they had to take backseat for a long time.
For unlimited blade works and fate , the remaster is pretty good, but heaven's feel route is too censored in the remaster,so it would be better to play it on the nonesteam version for the uncensored real route.
Heaven's feel movies adapted the old version instead of the remaster, because the old version has more impact in my opinion. The remaster version doesn't hit as hard as the uncensored one, they change quite a lot of scenes and plot points for " modern audiences" more likely sony tho
@@BannedTman Huh. Then yeah, it´d probably be better for Shark to play the old version. (The movies were pretty good imo, by the way.) But I also understand that the uncensored version might run into some trouble on YT.
Hey could you reupload Summer Wars and Paprika reactions? The links are down; both mega and vimeo. Says "The file you are trying to download is no longer available". So updating the links will also do. Thankss. Lovee your reactions by the way .😭💟
Alright I’m gonna say it remastered should be “fine” for ubw but it will be AWFUL for heaven’s feel I can’t say why obviously for spoilers but please switch back for heaven’s feel at least
I was hoping you would watch the Fate anime first before playing the visual novel ngl.I feel like that would have been better and you would also see what the differences are between the anime and the visual novel.
I wish i could be more excited for this, but it's kinda frustrating to know that Shark is pretty gonna gush about Rin non-stop throughout this entire route. Rin is undeniably popular, and she fits the mold of a classic, confident, and capable heroine. But the tendency for some fans to elevate Rin to near-perfection can sometimes overshadow the more nuanced and emotionally rich characters, and not just Shirou or Saber. It’s not that Rin doesn’t deserve admiration-she’s well-written and charismatic-but the way other characters often get sidelined in discussions can feel unfair at times. Rin’s introduction in the Fate route is flashy-she’s confident, competent, and stylish. First impressions matter, and Rin makes a strong one, but I fear that this severely backfires on a lot of the more reserved characters who's personalities need more time to develop.
I completely agree. For me, Sakura and Illya are easily my favorite girls in this vn, though I've always loved Saber. When it comes to Rin, through the first two routes, I thought she was OK, though I never grew to love her. Once I got later into the vn, I actually grew to hate Rin. I've reread the vn numerous times ,and the issues that I have with her were always there, I just didn't notice them as much. It's really unfortunate that Rin is practically the only girl from this vn that ever gets talked about.
@@loftypenalty91 I wouldn't necessarily say I ever hated Rin in any of these routes, but there are a number things she's either said or done that angered me, for reasons I'm sure you understand. Still though, from the way Shark treats her, it makes me fear how he'll react to HF, considered the best route by many; he acts like Rin possibly being at center of this story makes it the best by default *sigh*...
@@keyblademasterct2I feel like for me Rin is actually the most subtle character in the VN since a majority of readers still buy into her facade even after HF. The complexities of who she is, how she develops even in UBW hidden due to her skills in mask making. Unlike a lot of characters in the vn where it’s obvious where they are lying to themselves or others like a majority of the cast. People either love Rin for her mask or hate Rin for her mask, it’s kinda insane but that’s what happens when an anime is popular that’s disregards inner nuance.
Is this new version of your game not a remastered one? Then I think it won't have alternative scripts for sensitive scenes such as the kiss scene with Saber in Fate route. You should stick with Realta Nua. Scripts in non-remastered version are all cringey as hell.
Not a lot going on in this one besides scuffed beginnings and barking up old trees, but we are back!
DUDE i cannot believe i found u again 😭 I watched u like 5 years ago religiously and lost u 🙏 crazy youtube find

100%
WOO UBW
This Route actually has an anime worth watching too, Shark!
Holy sh*t...we're so back
1:40:28 I jokingly said "Daddy Kotomine" to myself and then you called me out seconds later
dude i cant believe this finally happening , 2025 hype!!! its been a year and half since fate
we are SEATED as STATED
so hyped for these routes and then get to Fate/Zero, (holding on hope for Fate/hollow ataraxia)
fingers crossed he does FHA eventually! it’s getting an official english release and everything
Wild we got back into it
"I want that"

I think they say it again during "that" fight
Glad to come back to this, and with the remastered at that.
So glad to see u back :3
Excited to be going through the UBW VN for the first time with your commentary! Hope you enjoy the route!
Shark saying he’s about to get fucked by Nasu is such a crazy thing to hear as an FGO player lol
41:10 i completely lost it LMAO
It’s back Leta’s goooooo
lets gooo we are so back
Are we?
Red man route lets gooo! Stil blown away youre reading fate/stay night.
FINALLY!!! Super thrilled for this
We´re back with Best-Girl route, let´s go!
Also, 24:55 Rin: "Give me Baeber!"
Hoping for a Noxus trailer reaction 🙏
Here we go again.
Best route!

Which also draws the attention of a certain other servant much earlier
Here it is!
WE ARE SO BAAAAAACK
Yay it's back!
lets goooooooo, its finally here

I haven´t played the Remaster, is it really that bad for HF?

@@johnyshadow it's not just the sexual scenes that are cut btw, I don't wanna say too much on shark's comment section tho

YOOOOOOOOOOO🎉🎉🎉
Will he ever react to the animes about fate?
He said he may go to the anime and watch the fight scenes
you dont wanna change too much in the explanation scenes or else the quality of the explanation might go down
I think it would be better to begin the count again from number 1. So it would be easier for anyone looking for specific routes

Nah I rather the other way around. Having the anime to compare to the vn is always the better choice if you have the time, which Shark has.

@@Wisefoolofdeath IMO, UBW Abridged did pretty good job in "peaking under the mask"
