Didn't they also imply that some of them were manipulated into working on that site? Maybe not kidnapped like Waver and Melvin were, but that's the sense I got.
Man, Reines sure stuck on that "still a virgin" thing. Did she want to know to be able to hold that over his head along with everything else? As if Waver doesn't get teased enough .

Now, you can go to great length defending such artistic choices by delving into the lore to hell and back, but it doesn't change the fact that fanservice is the ultimate motivation & goal of such genderbent in the Fate franchise (in this case, Apoc).

Waver is not in the same level of thiking that, errr a dude that gives his second daughter to an obviously suspect old gazer, but is a Magi regardless, weird as himself between them for NOT being...you know, like that. Quote:

I dont mind beach episode if its relevant and adds to the main plot of the story. In recent example, the river episode from SSSS.Gridman comes to mind.
I also dont mind fanservice when it makes sense, such as: characters bathing, showering, swimming in bikinis or probably even have sex. But to go out of your way to design the characters clothes to be as slutty as possible for no good plot-reason other than fanservice is just poor taste except in ecchi or hentai shows. Quote:

And lets stop here. Were being off-topic by talking about Apoc. Im here to enjoy El Melloi 2. My one-off comment about trashy fanservice in Apoc is not meant to start an OT discussion here.

Still, it was a fun first episode but I have no idea how the series will be with so many timeskips. A shame about the animation cos Gilgamesh looked like one of those poorly modeled Gold Saints from Toei when the budget was quite bad. |

Kiritsugu entered a Geis with Kayneth that he won't be able to hurt him and Sola-Ui in exchange for killing Deermud. He exploited that with a loophole and had Maiya shoot the two of them instead. Since Kiritsugu cant kill Kayneth as he begs to be killed after surviving that, Saber put him out of his misery and chopped his head off.

It wasnt shown but I remember she did a downward swing instead of a downward stab to the ground where KFC was writhing. A swing means she cut something and a kill with that movement is decapitation. At the very least in the novels it was said she cut off his head.

Not much to say about the first episode. I dig the mood it's going for just as I did with the OVA and Waver remains of better characters in the series. I'm glad he's still doing this waay more to live up Rider ideals than caring about Kayneth on a personal level.
I also believe that outside F/Zero, this is ironically closet to an actual sequel to it and the original series even if lacks the large scale stakes of it's parent show because of the more personal nature this going, which is pretty neat. |

I don't really want to get into this argument, but I just have to clarify something. If Astofol is meant to appeal to anyone it's people who like otokonoko, not futanari. Those are two very different things with different appeals.
