Alright, let's talk about Fate/strange Fake. Specifically, episodes 9 and 10. I’ll admit, I went into this expecting the usual grandstanding and selfish ambitions that plague most of the Fate series. It’s practically a prerequisite for summoning a Servant, right? But, color me surprised – and maybe a little bit intrigued – because this time, the fight has a different flavor entirely. They’re calling it 'altruistic.' How quaint.
Usually, these battles are all about a hero’s wish or some god-awful personal vendetta. It’s predictable, honestly. But the snippet mentions a conflict driven by purely selfless intentions. It’s a bold move, especially for a franchise that thrives on complex, often morally gray characters. I’m genuinely curious to see if they can pull this off without it feeling preachy or, worse, boring. Because if there’s one thing I can't stand, it's forced sincerity.
So, while I’m still reserving judgment until I’ve seen the whole thing unfold, the idea of a Fate battle that isn't fueled by some twisted desire or ego is… almost refreshing. It’s a departure from the norm, and while I might grumble about it, a part of me actually appreciates the effort. Don't expect me to gush, though.
"Altruistic fights in Fate? Well, I suppose even the most cynical characters need a break from their own selfish desires. Just don't expect me to start knitting them little scarves." — The Tsundere Critic
