Unfortunately, the quality does dip a bit after that. Don’t get me wrong, it remains a very well-written and enjoyable book. However, while the first arc is fast-paced and captivating, with writing that draws you in and makes hours feel like minutes, the subsequent parts lose some of that intensity. It’s still a good read, but it lacks the same level of gripping immersion and vivid emotional impact found in the first arc.
In a way, it feels like the first arc set such a high bar that the rest of the book couldn’t quite match it. If a book improves from mediocre to good as you read, it leaves you somewhat satisfied. But if a book declines from a near-masterpiece to very good, it can leave you feeling disappointed, even though it’s still better than the first scenario.
I won’t delve too deeply into the specifics of what I love about the book, as there’s a lot to discuss and it would involve heavy spoilers. However, I can say that the first arc is a must-read for any Type-Moon fan, and from there, you can decide whether to continue or stop.
Personally, this is one of my favorite Fate fanfics. The writing quality is quite good, and the author shows a lot of creativity at times. The protagonist is particularly proactive, which is refreshing. However, the author does take some liberties with powers, and the OC Shirou ends up with significantly more strength, pulling off feats that can feel a bit of a stretch. Depending on how strictly you adhere to Nasu lore, this might be a turn-off.
The story is fairly consistent with its theme and manages to justify the progression of events in a way that aligns with Fate’s rules. It’s also narratively cohesive, with the main character’s actions continuously building upon each other and some effective foreshadowing.
, it hits a lot of the notes I wanted in a fix-fic, providing satisfying endings for many of the characters I care about. It explores much of the expanded Fate setting while adding its own unique spin based on the consequences of the protagonist’s actions.
In summary, I enjoyed the plot, even though some characters were a bit OC. It mostly follows the rules of the setting but takes some liberties, which it tries to justify within the framework of Nasu’s rules.
The translations are top-notch; it's clear that they weren't machine-translated like many other fanfic translations out there.
I hope this work can one day become canon—it’s that good.
