there is a new fate stay night anime coming out called Fate zero the same company that did Demonbane will be doing this I can't wait to see it.
mmhmm, me too. Although... I doubt that it'll be an anime, since TYPE-MOON is collaborating with Nitroplus. Looking at Nitroplus's site, they seem to only be releasing dating sim/visual novel stuff.
Therefore, Jeff believes this will be a visual novel release. Whether or not it becomes an anime depends on the anime people...
Yeah i'm kinda hoping it stay visual cause the last anime they did on fate was not faithful to the original story. I'm putting sakura in a lingerie outfit I was WTF when I saw that.
haha, well, I haven't played thru f/sn, I wouldn't know if they were faithful to the story. ^^
Since this is a TYPE-MOON thread, anyone here play Melty Blood? My lack of a gamepad or controller keeps my skills limited. Freakin' keyboard.
Oh man you really got to get a controller for your pc much much better they keyboard is evil to video games.
Seconded. Meltyblood is a lot easier with a controller. However, my sister does a lot better with a keyboard o.O Funny how that works XP
As for Type-Moon, their animes have never really been 100% faithful :P I'm lookin at you, Tsukihime.

True so True fate stay night anime not very faithful at all.
Recommend any controllers for me? ^^
I'd assume it'd be hard to write a story when the original had multiple endings. (and fans tend to love different endings)
Furthermore, we don't really know how involved TYPE-MOON was with the anime... The level of cooperation between anime people and the creator can vary quite a bit...
Logitech controllers are good really good man and not very epensive you'll be paying 25 dollars or a little more.
Yeah but they could at least do ovas on the multiple endings or put in the dvd as extras that would have been nice.
bah, if you need a controler you should be a consol gamer!
Jeff, TYPE-MOON was hardly involved with Tsukihime anime at all. They have said that they weren't overly fond of it as well because of that ^^;
However for F/SN they were involved much much more and were able to have a lot more input into the shows direction. (F/SN is also a better anime I think :D)
Thats why the anime sucked if they did it themselves it would have been overkill. I just can't wait to see more of their work animated.
Well, my primary source of video game entertainment is my PS2... but a lot of these japanese games require my PC. ^^
I haven't gotten the chance to watch Tsukihime... I have, however, played through the game once. Have you people gotten the translation thing from mirror moon? http://mirrormoon.org/
for Fate/stay, I've watched the anime, but haven't got much of a clue what happens in the visual novel. I liked the anime, fancy magic circles are always fun. ^^ And I haven't gotten tired of the "Unlimited <insert noun here> Works" things that people do. haha
most of my gaming comes from my 360.. I only use my PC for RTSes, like dawn of war or Mark of Chaos. anything else tends to cramp my hand to much to play from a comp. Tho if i understood japanese enough to import games I would use my comp for that too
Ahh 360 is a waste to me I like more underground stuff these days myself.
Melty Blood for PS2 has been out for a few months..., and I'm pretty disappointed how they weaken Aoko. Well, Aoko was way godlike in the PC version :D.
I just can't wait till Version B comes out for the coputer
I loves me some Melty Blood ReAct... Haven't seen/played any FSN though.
Hell yeah I'm into Type-Moon stufft ;012
can't wait for that Kara no Kyokai animation that is planned
yesh. Kara no Kyokai is something I am quite looking forward to. ^^
In other news, I have played through Arcrueid and Ciel's True Endings, and Ciel's ending felt really good. Arc's was good too. Had a more peaceful, quiet mood. But Ciel's... I dunno, it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy, for lack of a better phrase. ^^
Man I can't wait for Fate Zero to come out I hope some translates it. I'm really looking forward to seeing how they portray Alexander the great.
Currently playing Tsukihime through Hisui's story arc, already completed Arc, Ciel, and Akiha's ending. I think Akiha's both endings are the best so far, although somewhat sad ^^;
About Fate/Zero, anime would be a long long way :D
had u all tried BMW? series 3 is out already >< its kind fun but mine corrupted
looking foward for fate zero..
but aint it was a prequel of fate/ stay night?
Fate zero is a novel (not a visual novel) which tell the previous war.
The company Nitro+ is collaborating with Type Moon to do it. For now we have to wait if they're gonna plan an animation like Kara no Kyoukai ^^ (maybe in 1 or 2 years)
must read, tho I was hoping for something that improves or expands on the end of stay night... tho I have decided to go look for the manga so i can have more of the story filled out.
I hear that translation projects for Type-moon novels tend to be slow due to Kinoko Nasu's rather high-level kanji and prose. (and the fact that it's a freakin NOVEL)
there's a f/sn manga? *looks up*
Unlimited Blade Works, eh? I'd read it if it wasn't in japanese.... any scanslators?
well, there is the Tsukihime manga. anyone here read it? I saw it at Anime Expo, but I was strapped for cash at that point.
Captain, I suggest reading anything about the game(wikipedia) or playing the game itself. since there are alot of things that the anime missed. and reading some doujins helps too. I read lots of things about f/s n and before i knew it my favorite character became CASTER followed by RIDER.
Gaku gaku animal land has lots of pretty good doujin translations http://www.freewebs.com/aortic/fatekaranokyokai.htm
I read vol. 1-4 of tsukihime (it seems that the vol. 5 will be release in japan on 25th October and the vol. 6 will be the last).
By the way, if you like the anime and/or the visual novel you have to read the manga because it gives you much more details than the anime.
Melty Blood Version B is awesome I just downloaded it it's really fun tag team mode owns.
Here's the trailer for the Fate/Tiger Colosseum Game for psp I hope they make a real fate game for ps2 like they did for melty blood or at least comp release.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkQkWLNIhU8
... i am such an oblivious fark.
I just relized who archer was... it took a long time for it to dawn on me.. and then i looked it up because i wasnt quite sure.. sweet jebus they did a pretty good idea of concealing it or not making it obvious. kudos to them.
aha, well, at least you figured it out.
....I was spoiled.
I like the feeling of figuring things out. And someone just blurted it out while everyone else was using spoiler warnings...
*sigh*
which is why I avoid topics that even have the possibility of a spoiler nowadays. ^^
I brought it up to Q4(v) when it was just a theory of mine, before i confirmed it with a wiki search.. and he fought tooth and nail denying it.. but i just made to much sence..
haha, I kinda want to see that argument. ^^
In other TYPE-MOON news, I've been playing Melty Blood.
...yeah, that's it. Just wanted to add another sentence. XD;
I want that taiga colosseum!
Yeah i also had a very hard time figuring out who archer was! they say it is a lot easier to discover is identity in the game.
ebay Fate Tiger Colosseum (http://search-desc.ebay.co.uk/search/search.dll?sofocus=so&sbrftog=1&from=R10&_trksid=m37&satitle=the+Fate+Tiger+Colosseum&sacat=-1%26catref%3DC6&fts=2&floc=1&sargn=-1%26saslc%3D2&sadis=200&fpos=B66+1RP&sabfmts=1&saobfmts=insif&ga10244=10425&ftrt=1&ftrv=1&saprclo=&saprchi=&fsop=1&fsoo=1)

I just finished Battle moon wars act 3!!! its sooo fun!! Archer is still the coolest!! Now currently waiting for act 4!
T-Moon Complex X 01
http://rapidshare.com/files/56763272/T_Moon_Complex_X_01.zip.html
I LOVE MELTY BLOOD ACT CADENZA!!!
T_T I dont have $50, so I cant get anything but the demo...
It does rule with my PSone controller :)
(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/f4/Ren_cake.jpg)
It is delicious cake, she must eat it.
i finished the whole tsukihime game a few weeks ago and its partly to blame for my long absence! hehe. The story is sooooo awesome! but i have to settle down a bit to savor the enjoyment more. i also finished the plus disk and now im playing kagetsu tohya. i plan on playing fate stay night once mirror moon finishes heaven's feel!!
Of course following the game i decided to run through all of gaku gaku animal land's doujin scanlations of tsukihime!! that was a very fun night for me.
i'm hearing rumors of a tsukihime 2 so im getting restless although i still need to wait 1-3 years after its release before i can get my hands on an english translation, or maybe i could learn the language as fast as i can. :/
Oh, a Type Moon thread.
Good!
I am a huge fan of Type-Moon works. I played all Visual Novels and Melty Blood games.
awesome :D have you played tiger colloseum?
No I haven't because I don't have a PSP xD
oh well.. its rather fun... it was worth getting just to see beserker hit on all the ladies with a rose in his mouth XD And lion saber is awesome too
Type-moon = anime too?
ehh?
i dont get what it is your asking. English language mother farker, do you use it?
is type-moon also an anime?
Type-moon is not anime..... ^_^ type-moon is a group of fans who create many great visual novel in Japan.
The visual novel created by type-moon always have a good rating....so the anime and manga is created for some type-moon's visual novel.
The most famous one is Fate/stay night and Tsukihime. Tiger Colloseum is one of Fate/stay night related game.
ah, now i understand...
*trots off to find new things to discover*
yeah, what she said. *slaps you around a bit with a large trout*
Tho, i thought Type-Moon was a full fleged company now, due to the amount of money they have made on their stories.
Yeah, TM is a company! No more a doujin one...
interesting related factoid... did you know that a professional manga artist on average produces 3 pages a day, and has generaly compleated 5000+ pages before going pro. Before that, your just a little doujin artist, selling your wares at con...
You know, this all reminds me of Welcome to the NHK now.
Anyhow, lets get some type-moon type conversation going. Poll time, who is everyones Favotie characters? Imma go with Shiki, Archer, and Lancer for guy characters, and Ilya Saber Ren and Arc for female characters. <__< so many to choose from tho, i cant narrow it down any further then that.
Hey look, a revived thread relevant to my interests!
Ryougi Shiki or Tohno Shiki?
I like both of em, but Ryougi Shiki is kickass.
And yeah there are WAY too many characters to choose from.
Saber, Ilya, Lancer, Rider, Akiha, Sion... heh If I continue, I might end up naming everyone. XD;
Oh, while we're talking about type moon characters, how about the things they're working on right now? Kara no Kyoukai is already out, so let's deal with things in the pipeline.
Canaan:
An anime based on a "sound novel" titled 428 - Fuusa Sareta Shibuya de - (428 - In Blockaded Shibuya) by Sega/Chunsoft. Type-moon worked together with Chunsoft on this. Takashi Takeuchi is responsible for the character designs, Nasu took care of the 2nd extra scenario in the novel.
Anime website: http://www.canaan.jp/
Secondly,
"Mahou Tsukai no Yoru" (Witch of the Holy Night)
Looks like backstory for Tsukihime, with Aoko Aozaki being a main character.
http://www.typemoon.com/product/next/mahoyo.html
Thirdly, showing that TYPE-MOON really is no longer a doujin group,
"Girls' Work"
http://www.typemoon.com/product/next/gw.html
Something that's neither by Nasu or Takeuchi, and (naturally) not connected to the Nasuverse.
And finally, the Tsukihime Remake:
http://www.typemoon.com/product/next/tukihime.html
ACK! I forgot about Akiha! and I ment tohno Shiki. he is <3
anyhow, somewhat on topic, what ever happened to coloring that fate pic sleepy? we saw some prgress at one point then you went UA
Glad if someone would correct my mistakes.... ^_^
For fav char from TM......?
I'd say Archer he is coooool...... i always use him on fatal fake.... and i always win..... FATAL difficulty is not a threat.... ^_^

ah, sorry, that's my fault. I haven't worked on it in the past 2-3 weeks since school started. It's not that I've forgotten, I'm just absolutely horrible with time management. ^^;
I'll have time to work on it this weekend, and we'll see how far I'll get. :3
ah fatal fake... i suck at it, and not in a good way =_= then again im not good at any fighting games.
use archer... and shoot your arrow rapidly...... ^_^
i'm sure you'll win no mather what enemy you are facing!
Cheat? nnaaaahhh.... it's called strategy.... ;036
Hahaha, well Can't play Unlimited Codes since I don't have PS2 nor Powerfull PC
We're talking about Fatal/Fake here......
A doujin game for Fate/Stay Night.....
It's a small game about 200Megs.....
You don't need a powerful PC to play this game.... ^_^
is unlimited codes for the PC? i thought it was just ps2. I might have to look into getting it.
Unlimited Codes is only for PS2.
Yes, I know Fata/Fake, but didn't played yet.
DO ET!! DO ET NAOOWW!! </arnold>
Hahaha, I'll do when I have space on mi hdd to install it xD. Btw, I need to find this game. Here on Brazil don't have it to buy =x
Hongfire.com have everything...... try to find it there!;054
Not counted as piracy if no one in your country have the market license.... ^_^
Ah, so it's fine. NO one here has copyright licenses of it.
Quote from: "randi.ninja"Not counted as piracy if no one in your country have the market license.... ^_^
that's exactly why anime in holland rives me crazy...
1st of all it's bleeding hard to find the anime you want (on DVD), and
2ndly if you can't find it on DVD, it's frigin near impossible to figure out if anyone has licenced it already...
things aren't looking any easier for type-moon in here either...
the internet... you can order things on it. really, its true. you go to places called websites and you tell them what you want, you pay with a thing called a credit card and someone actually mails the thing to you. isnt it amazing? :p
yeah it's great if they ship overseas and have region 2 DVDs...
And if you have a credit card....
*wanders of mumbling*
Life without credit card is (on-line) really tough...but simpler...
I don't have credit cards either. But it limits me sometimes on the shop sites.
Meh, i'll just go to my shop and ask the guy about type-moon...
Ooh and OS-tans, maybe he has some figurines... :D
Online shopping won't do with me!
I've twice ordered some PC magazine abonnement for a year from US with credit card....
only the first month came.... next month.... no clue where it go...
maybe it's just my bad luck! ;018
Kara no Kyoukai 5: Mujun Rasen (Paradox Spiral) anyone?
Freakin awesome. Katana Ryougi and Moe Ryougi was awesome. The first half had some animation that made me wonder about their budget, but holy crap the rest of the movie had top quality animation, especially in the fight scenes.
Can't wait to see Azaka in the next one. Whoo fire magics!
If you guys haven't seen it, I urge you to see it. Of course, expect the Nasu plot to confuse the heck out of you, especially since it isn't in chronological order (a la Haruhi when it was aired).
Of course, if you're an impatient anime watcher, this may not be for you, what with the extensive talking as well as the release dates being so far apart. (There's a total of 7 movies for Kara no Kyoukai, so as mentioned earlier, we have up to 5)
...I kinda wonder who's going to pick this series up over here now that Geneon went under.
inb4 wishful thinking

I always find myself lost when watching KnK, I had to google a website one day that was able to break down everything that was going on. Though I'm eager to see what movie 7 is going to be like when movie 5 is supposedly "the end."
not surprised.
The original novel is exponentially more convoluted than this. XD
And it's Nasu. Nasu loves making long convoluted plots.
Also, Azaka was indeed moe, but other than that, it felt a bit lacking compared to Mujun Rasen. (also, sprinter > fairytale )
Well, 7 concludes what was in 2, so there's still some loose ends to tie up. I can't wait to see Satusjin Kousatsu's conclusion.
In my books TYPE-Moon = WIN
waiting for KnK7 to come out before i try to re-watch and re-understand everything from scratch..
it's sad that i can't read the Light novels all the way through in English now
I would like to see more anime with Arcrueid she is a facinating character and you find out more and more as you peel layers away. I read some of the Melty blood manga. I wish they would do a sequeal to the anime of FS/N I really enjoyed that anime. ;010
