I've opened my Tsukihime keychains for preorders! [OC]

I drew and sold these keychains initially back in 2022. With the Tsukihime fandom growing ever since then, I wanted to open the listing up for both new and old fans!

Mods, if you find this to be against the rules, don't be afraid to remove my post. Thank you!

How exactly do Reality Marbles work?

I understand that they're basically Bounded Fields that overwrite reality based off of an individual's soul like Emiya. But then we see ones like Nrvnqsr Chaos who can deploy it inside their body? Then there's TATARI which is now a phenomenon somehow??? There's also La Pucelle which is described as a RM inside a sword, how? Even Blackmore's RM doesn't make sense to me. Is he transporting his opponents into his RM like UBW, or is he just summoning a ton of birds into the real world?

What about daemons? How do their RMs function? Is it like UBW by transporting people there, or is it like Muramasa's NP with Tsumukari Muramasa or something like Golem Keter Malkuth (which is an autonomous RM???)

A villain with True Magic

Listen imagine Nasu finally decides to give some Focus to the True Magic and the Age of Will

With that he tries to create a plot following This kind of villain:straigh up evil for no reason,pretty,charismatic,overpowered,Fun personality,Fucking cruel A good example would bê JOJO villains like DIO

This villain somehow managed to get to himself TRUE MAGIC It could bê one of the main but i really would prefer a New kind being introduced outside of the ones we alredy have

Humanity It's on the verge of reaching the Age of Will going to the stars ultil This villain fucked all up

Now the MC and his group got dragged on This mess trying to find a way to fix It while surviving

Sometimes the pass True Magic users appears but something the villain Did causes them to only act and interact on a limited amount while we learn what can they truly do to the limit If they were Full Power

We would undestand better about the Age of Will with the Constant World build the characters offer

Maybe the MC ends with This New Magic after the villain defeat

I say It would bê Fun because only the good guys Full of "humanity" are the ones that get This Power while most mages that actually try to get them instead of playing around Just die never getting 1% close to it

EDIT:Maybe an alien? Or a type for that role? Só we can explore How the root affects beings from outside earth

I struggle to always root for Nasu's philosophy

while the opposition is almost always glaringly flawed like Leo's utopia I'm just never 100% behind the idea that the existence of suffering is outweighed by the possibility of this vague progress that will make the world better. and how a world that has stagnated is worse. can you guys explain your reason for why you think this way? I feel i need to understand it to enjoy the stories more

Is it really necessary for magi to have such an inhumane mindset to reach the root?

I always had this doubt because I questioned why magi adopt this inhumane mentality in relation to human lives and ethics to reach the root in the first place wouldn't there be other methods that aren't so extreme and inhumane?

How do Touko’s mage crests work? Also what happened to the Thames Troll?

Hi, I finished Mahoyo pretty recently, took me a while but I enjoyed it a lot, really liked the action towards the end. I just have a couple questions about how the mage craft system worked in the Touko fights.

  1. How does Touko’s stolen magecrest array work and what benefits does it give her? She seems to activate it in response to Aoko using a huge blast against her and the blast doesn’t hit her as a result. Did she use it to power a shield she couldn’t use otherwise, or did the sheer mass of mana interrupt it or something? The text seemed to say even by stealing the crests they still wouldn’t be useful to anyone but their original owners (who apparently are locked up in the Oldboy hotel) and that Touko can’t apply them to her body, which is why they’re behind her, I didn’t really grasp how they were useful to her.

  2. When Beowulf mauled the Thames Troll, did that destroy it forever or was it just KO’d? It’s made out of materials lying around but it seemed like Flat Snark is gone forever when Aoko shot it off the moon. That’d be pretty embarrassing if Alice lost 2/3 1000 year old great ploys in fights she didn’t even win.

Thank you.

Do you Think Type Moon ends with Nasu? When he inevitably retires

I honestly hope Nasu makes a Big VN like Fate/Stay Night or Tsukihime before he goes. Maybe that’s asking for a lot I know he is busy with red Garden and stuff but TM is just so damn interesting another series with multiple routes and a new protagonist and stuff. I think it would be so awesome it’s probably not likely but man I just hope we get another big game at some point with or without Nasu. But that’s just me I can’t wait for red garden tho at some point who knows when…..

Do souls really return to the root?

Hi, I’ve been browsing the TYPE-MOON fandom page for the Swirl of the Root recently.

On the page, I noticed that there is a line which describes the root as a “place from where all souls, including those of Heroic Spirits recorded on the Throne of Heroes, originate from and to where they return after death”, but doesn’t offer any citation for the source.

I checked the citation for the subsequent sentence, which leads to the latest volume of the Adventures of Lord El-Melloi II. On a brief reading, the cited source does not explicitly state the dying soul is approaching the root, although the descriptions given show that the dying soul is approaching something that seems to fulfil the description of the root. However this is only for one dying soul and does not necessarily support the claim that all dying souls return to the root.

Would anyone know where the original source for the root being a place where all souls (eventually) return to comes from?

Supernovas

Both Gaia and Alaya have CFs and both make sure Earth and Mankind still exist and all. And the other planets having Types.

But what would happen to them when the Sun goes like a boss (gobbling Planets when it turns red), would they just be destroyed or what?

This is assuming the Sun destiny in Typemoon is the same as ours (exhaust its nuclear fuel)

Im asking with curiosity seeing as in TypeMoon planets are alive and are haxy by nature

What is the hardest being to kill in the entire nasuverse?

I think Nero Chaos from Tsukihime because the bastard has 666 lives due to the countless beasts that make up his being.

witch on the holy night bug(?)((steam))

Hello guys, while playing the recently acquired Maho, I noticed that I was having some problems with the settings:
a stripe on the word "config" and a strange display of the slider (screenshot attached). This is a bug inside the game, has anyone encountered this? Or is there a problem with my monitor?

What qualifies a person for being a Servant: Minutae of Throne of Heroes operation (FGO spoiler rant)

This is sort of a rant post, dedicated to the most recent FGO addition: >!Archer King Tut.!<

!A Heroic Spirit is by definition somebody who was famous in life. Yet here we have a definition of a person who was considered too obscure for several millenia, and precisely that's why his tomb was found in 20th century.!<

!So being as obscure as "dying young, apparently being buried in a tomb designed for your mother, being found millenia later in pristine condition precisely because of your obscurity, having a tabloid curse legend start about you" is apparently now a Throne of Heroes material.!<

!In fact, there is one of the cases when genderbender COULD HAVE improved things, because Nefertiti (whose tomb it was supposed to be originally) was a legendary beauty on par of Cleopatra. Though I have no idea how merging her with her son would have helped things.!<

Is there any guideline about how it's supposed to function anymore or did FGO throw any lore of FSN days in dustbin plain and simple? Remember when Michelangelo being denied the Throne or Kojiro apparently never existing were big deals lorewise?

Trying to understand the Metaphysics of the Nasuverse.

Ok this is me, as someone who like Philosophy and Metaphysics in general, trying to understand the Nasuverse Metaphysics.

  1. ↾  ⇃:

Is the source of all phenomena, and the place from which all phenomena return to. It is the highest “force” or “being” that exists at the top of all theories in every dimension. It is indescribable, and incomprehensible, even the former sentence is putting a “face” that captures its essence but yet is certain to be inadequate to quite describe it. It has many “faces” which can be considered the ultimate foundations of any theory of reality. Its God, its Akasha, it's the Swirl of the Root, it is Being and Non-Being at once. In many ways the first sentence already implies a Neo-Platonic God, whether that be personal or not is yet to be seen, as everything “returns” to that single Unity rather than just fading into nothingness, like say what would happen with a creation that was more created “Creatio Ex Nihilio”.

  1. Mystery:

At least as described in the Wiki, is the “source of power of many different types that comes from the root.” Mystery, seems to me at least from this sentence, to be the direct emanation of the Root, and everything seems to be derivative of Mystery in some capacity. This is interesting, as how this concepts interacts with Ether (true or not), as Mystery is the SOURCE of all Phenomena, but Ether is what ACTUALIZES (puts into existence) a Mystery.

Its also interesting how Science and the Human Texture interact with Mystery, as supposedly, when knowledge of the essence of a Mysterious Phenomena is gained, the power of said phenomena seems to wither. This could be the fact that the Root in the Nasuverse seems to be Apophatic Theologically (where one can only make negative statements about the essence of God) in nature, due to it no longer being the same concept of "↾  ⇃" when a name (Like Akasha or Root), or concepts (Like holding all information) are asserted to it (Cataphatic Theology). So therefore Mysterious things gain power when less is known about it.

There is also another theory which I will put at the end.

  1. The existence of an Actualized "Creation". I say this as the most confusing for me, because in the last section we already saw that Mystery is the direct emanation of the Root. But there is no explanation to what Actualized Mystery to form actual phenomena in the first place. The only known source of the actualization of Mystery in the Nasuverse is Magical Energy (Ether/True Ether). There is only one real way one can fix this problem. One is to hypothetically rename Magical Energy to the "Energy of Actualiztion" which would also a direct emanation of the Root the same as Mystery. But the consequence of this would be that EVERY PHENOMENA would be Mysterious, and Actual.

That also under that definition would include Science, which is directly stated to be decreasing Mystery. Lets explore in section 5.

  1. The Energy of Actualization: If you would grant me that Magical Energy is the Energy of Actualization, then that means that everything must be derivative of Magical Energy (and Mystery) in some capacity. Where does Magical Energy come from? Its stated to be the "primordial animus, and Life itself" which seem like to not be solely sourced from the Planet at least in this description. Which are extremely interesting description, especially from someone who is Christian and likes Christian Philosophy. 'Primordial Animus', lets break down that description. Primordial means "Existing at or at the beginning of Time". Animus, which is derivative of Anima, is a Latin word used to translate the Greek word for Psyche (which means Mind/Consciousness/Soul/Spirit). So the description literally means "A spirit or soul that has existed since the beginning of time.". This very definition, and the fact that Magical Energy hypothetically should be the Energy of Actualization that emanates from the Root, implies that Magical Energy, or even the Root itself is personal with a mind/soul. Technically under this definition the metaphysics of the Nasuverse is a version of Metaphysical Idealism! (Which makes sense as many concepts are borrowed not only from western philosophy but Buddhism and Hinduism as well). (This concept also goes well with the concept of the 1st, and 3rd Magic. With the first being "Creation from Nothing" as far as I can tell, and the 3rd being the Materialization of the Soul.)

Now lets explore 'Life' as a description for Magical Energy. Life is an English word that usually is used in conjunction with Living things as opposed to Non-living things. If you have read the last paragraph you can quite easily see that this is a false distinction. So lets get to the Etymology of the word. Life is derived from the various Germanic words, which all translate to "Body". So what is a "Body"? A body both in modern terminology would be the physical structure of a person or an animal. Again this definition implies that Magical Energy is personal or at least "conscious" (like an animal) in some way. This leads toward the notion of a Root that is personal, but all this really shows or confirms is that the Nasuverse is some version of Idealism.

5: Thaumaturgical Foundations and Science:

What are Thaumaturgical Foundations? Thaumaturgical Foundations are an engraving upon the world created by the "collective unconsciousness" of people. Now, to my surprise this does not solely apply to Humans, but even to higher level beings as well, such as Fairies and Elementals, whos 'Thaumaturgical Foundation are a Mystery unable to be reached through Magecraft'.

So that got me thinking, if Thaumaturgical Foundations are not limited to Humans, but also higher level beings, why should it not go all the way to the top? Thaumaturgical Foundations of Textures? of Worlds and Ultimate Ones? Of Universes? Of Outer Gods? Becoming more and more incomprehensible each layer up you go. So in essence I would almost assert that the Nasuverse is a verse of Neo-Platonic verse of Metaphysical Idealism in which Thaumaturgical Foundations (created through other minds/souls high or low), layer the entire verse from its metaphysical top to bottom, from Yog-Sathoth to even the idea of Science itself being a mere Thaumaturgical Foundation.

Yep thats right, I assert that Science in the Nasuverse is a type of Magecraft (the SCIENCE of Mystery). The reason that Science and the Human texture seem to decrease Mystery and Magecraft? That's easy, while science at its philosophical roots is Mysterious (because it founded upon on presuppositional categories and principles that it itself cannot prove in its own system IMO), it asserts that ALL phenomena can be explained through scientific concepts, and Humans mostly collectively believe it. So what happen to Magecraft, a Thaumaturgical Foundation which asserts that phenomena can happen in many different ways, is on a Texture in which Humans mostly believe a phenomena can only happen through Scientific Concepts? It either 'devolves" into Science (as the phenomena of a Magecraft System can be explained by scientific concepts and therfore has no need for "other" originators of phenomena), or if Science can never explain it it disappears (Goes to the Inner Sea most likely), and becomes Magic.

Hoped you all liked the read, I would be happy to hear all your thoughts, disagreements?? I hope the ravings of this madman didnt scare you all off lol.

Witch on the Holy Night Art book online

I just bought an expensive copy of Witch on the Holy Night, collector edition, in English, sealed.
I really wish to read the art book but my box will lose a ton of value just by opening it...
Are there online scans of the Magician's Basic Tune?
You can also dm me if you have them but don't want to share them publicly.

If Rin After The Events Of UBW Route Decides To Write A Book About Heroic Spirit Emiya To Celebrate His Heroism Like How Homer Did It With The Illiad and the Odyssey

Basically Rin decides that Emiya's legend needs to be celebrated as much as those of the hero's of past and she writes a book or creates a group which preches the life of heroic spirit emiya and teaches people to be nice and helpful to each other and inspire others to become hero's of justice how would it turn out.Do u think emiya would be well knwon.
