EDIT - http://ameblo.jp/from-yukana/entry-10836129577.html for Tessa fans, donate to charities! Actually all who has watched FMP might as well as click.
Dammit. I already donated. Now I want to donate again, but I can't exactly afford to send my whole savings >.>
Also, finally started Fate/Zero. This is gonna take a while. Even the prologue is long as hell.

Oh come on, that's not long. You want long? Try reading F/SN's prologue. It takes like a good 2-3 hours before you even reach the title screen. -_-
Edit: It's probably the only game where I've had to save before ever seeing the title screen.

Yeah I was wondering if F/SN was a VN because the prologue took forever to complete.
F/Z seems to be almost translated by Baka.

It is translated by Baka. I'm reading it now because they just finished like two weeks ago.
Edit: + Show Spoiler [Fate/Zero prologue] +So Tokiomi and Kirei are fighting for the Tohsaka house, Kiritsugu is fighting for the Einsbern house, and Kariya is fighting for the Mato house? The other three masters will just be random people I guess?

You want long? Muramasa's entire first chapter might as well as be prologue part 2 
and Ferrose, just read on, too early to think about that. In terms of the factions though that's more or less right.

Catching up to Break Blade, wtf is Cleo's purpose 0_o
9 vols and still nothing past the initial stuff lol, I can't even begin to guess at this point. She's part of the Kira Yamato Jesus pilot "war is bad!" school of thought. More importantly, Athens needs a fanservice character, no? Well the thing is that after that initial action, she has done nothing. I suppose when we consider the 3rd member of the baka trio having no screen time that isn't surprising, but still. Honestly not that I mind that the antagonist shifted from wimp to super badass eyepatch-man Athens does need a fanservice character to beat the loli from Holland though. Also picked up Tokyo Ravens, not bad, could be a good series in the making. That makes the third pretty promising series that started within the last year or two. Reading that though makes me wonder about tsunderes and what separates the good from the bad. About fanservice characters, Cleo is needed + Show Spoiler +since they lost their own loli. I was wtf-ing through that entire scene since literally nothing she did in any of her appearances affected the story. And then she gets killed out of nowhere. Haha, I don't think Zess has even made an appearance beyond the announcement that he was okay. He was introduced as the rival, yet he hasn't done anything for volumes. And as for super badass eyepatch-man, + Show Spoiler +FUCKING KILLED GIRGE. I was so pissed. Of all the characters you could've killed, it had to be him. -_- IMO, there are several criteria that need to be fulfilled for a tsundere to be good. First, the tsun to dere ratio has to be decent (eg. not Louise). Alternatively, they can be more tsuntsun in the first half and move into full on dere for the second half. Second, they have to be not totally useless (eg. not Houki. I can't even fathom why the author made her like that in the first place.). Having awesome scenes make characters more likeable. Third, maintaining the status quo is retarded. There are few things more tedious than reading the same damn thing for ten volumes and seeing no progress whatsoever because the author wants to milk the series and avoid pissing off shippers. Bonus points if they have a personality beyond being tsundere.
You mean Nike? Honestly, character development in Break Blade is kind of funny. There are the important people, and the people who we think should be important (but don't show up). Then there are the sidekicks of the important people and their sidekicks. + Show Spoiler [Break Blade] +Then we start killing people from the lower echelon to develop people from the ones above, till we eventually kill everyone but the important people
As for Zess, he just reappeared in like chapter 49 or so. Speaking of chapter 49, anyone remember the badass colonel who was holding like one fort in the Western front? Well, that guy just made a move, and he is freaking awesome. I wish we get more of him. + Show Spoiler [Break Blade] +A huge shame about Girge though, I am still not entirely sure on what the point of his character is other than being awesome and some way to give Lygart even more things to have conflicts about. At this rate poor Lygart will be completely emo before he fight general badass again
About tsundere, I've found plenty of 9tsun1dere heroines interesting. Louise wasn't annoying because she was never dere, she was just a bitch. But yeah, giving the characters actual development seems to be pretty helpful, that broom makes me rage so. Maintaining the status quo in general can be ok, look at how Misaka got along fine for around 15 vols.
All of that just seem to point to how tsunderes can't be just tsundere, and needs to be an actual character instead of a walking bitchslap into kisses machine.

Getting Fate/Zero. Let's see if I can finish in 2 days.
|
Can someone help me find Fate/Zero? I can't find it on Hongfire =[
Also F/Z animated by the same company that did KnK? Expecting good stuff.
|
Can't you just find it on bakatsuki?
Reading seitokai no ichizon gaiden vol 4 at last, surprisingly good. To be honest, this series is actually pretty well done.
|
The game itself can be found on BT?
|
There is no game, F/Z is a light novel.
|
Fate/zero isn't a game, it's a series of light novels.
|
I must have seriously misunderstood something -_- sorry.
At first I knew it was an LN, but for some reason I thought there was a VN too.

I'm very likely very late with this image but I can't resist.
+ Show Spoiler [Oh Japan...] +![[image loading]](http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/9826/120110313042002.jpg) Maybe SHAFT will actually use some of the money towards better animation next time? (Lolno)

Is there a site that's a bit better than 4shared to find songs from anime? like some Jpop site or something, looking for the ending song of Gundam Unicorn ep3.

I use http://gendou.com/ for DDLs. Alternatively http://www2.tokyotosho.info/ and http://www.nyaa.eu/ for torrents. But I try to avoid torrenting small files, because it's a pain in the ass.
|
Why is it a pain to torrent small files?
EDIT: well obviously if it's multiple small torrents.
