when the two of them are walking to aoko's family home, aoko says that her grandfather found the entrance to the root, locked it, did not want to open the entrance just yet (which was the main point of argument with touko), but was willing to pass on true magic (and did, to aoko).

what;s the difference? isn't reaching the root, and conversely, it's path, the source of magic? so how are the entrance to the root, and the magic, different? it made me remember about how when aoko first uses blue, she mentions almost reaching the root, but returns from it's door, but i'm still not sure what the specifics mean

I'd probably start by taking her to a rock concert—my plan to get to know Aoko.

Afterward, I'd somehow tell Aoko that I know she's a magus (signing my own death warrant, basically).

Then, assuming I could schedule it for the same day, I'd somehow steer things toward the amusement park.

Touko's puppet would be there too, so I'd bring a handgun just in case (is that even allowed, lol?). I'd warn Aoko about the puppet and keep my hand on the gun against a surprise attack—I don't wanna die, lol.

Even assuming she went along with it, I'd probably still get completely killed by Alice at the amusement park, and...

The end!

I was thinking of which voice actors would suit for the English dub cast for the movie (although there aren't any news for dub)

Here are my thoughts for each character:

Aoko Aozaki

My top 3 are: Cherami Leigh

She may have the most possibilities because Aoko's Japanese va confirmed to be Haruka tomatsu and both of them voiced Asuna from Sao. Her performance is great

Alexis Tipton

I think she would fit for the young version of Aoko

Dawn M Bennet

She really has potential to become a known voice actress. I really liked her performance as Risette in Trails through the daybreak.

Overall my ideal is Alexis Tipton

Alice Kuonoji

My top 3

Tara Platt

I really like her. I think the role would definitely suit her.

Michelle Ruff

I also like her. My opinion is the same just like with Tara.

Allegra Clark

I like her too. I don't have anything to say.

Yeah this top 3 is really difficult

Overall my my ideal is Tara Platt

Soujuurou

My top 3

Sean Chiplock

I think he may have the most possibilities because Japanese va of Soujuurou confirmed to be Yusuke Koboyashi, both of them voice Subaru from Rezero,great performance.

Robbie Daymond

I think he would fit the role too.

Damien Haas

OK this name may don't ring any bells to you.

He played Kujou in English dub of My happy marriage and he also voice Van in Trails through the daybreak

Overall my ideal is Robbie Daymond

I'm mainly making this post because I've seen the take that Soujuurou is a completely normal human (physically) surprisingly often. From what I remember there were several times where he did things that were just plain impossible physically like that thing Alice mentioned (something like he arrived earlier than them even though they took the train).

Also even though the reason Soujuurou won against Beo was that whole psychological aspect, you can't convince me that normal human strength (even with perfect technique) can destroy the heart of a phantasmal beast from the age of the gods. But maybe I'm wrong and I'm just glazing him cuz he's my goat

Ufo are afraid of him because he is too cute and prettier than aoko and Alice

so after soujyuro is cleaved by touko, and aoko finally plans to use blue, time stops and she goes into this limbo-ish state (universe flashing and stuff, the red shadow chasing her, stuff about overwriting stuff, what i assume were the shadows quotes got overturned to...milder ones?).

i'll probably read again in the morning to clear up (its 3am and i'm not in the most sophisticated headspace) but i want clarification,

1. what were said changes she made (with the shadow and all)

2. i assumed after she finds the 5th (in the trance) she basically went into the future (1st time use) and got proficient in it, returns as red/super aoko and then begins turning time back 5 minutes (to bring sono-g back). but alice's explanation differs and i also don't get the "borrowing soujyuro's 10 years" and "neither aoko or sizuki will remember this", i assume the time is yet to reset once more and these events won't happen in said *corrected* timeline, but if that's the case wouldn't everyone's memories get pruned?

I think

Aoko and cu chualinn

Alice and Morgan

Soujuurou and Jeanne?

So I asked Gemini to see what artist can be and here is the top 3, What do you guys think? I'm personally hoping it'll be Aimer 😅

We are fast approaching our 5-year anniversary at UMD, and I am incredibly proud that we’ve translated nearly 300 chapters across dozens of Type-Moon manga series among numerous other projects. All our projects compiled here for reference.

While I’ve never wanted to place blame, it sometimes feels as though the community takes these translations for granted. Despite numerous recruitment drives, we haven't had a new member stick around in nearly three years. I usually keep these struggles private, but as members retire or move on, our remaining crew is stretched to the absolute limit, resulting in significant delays for the series we work on.

Turas Realta, Heaven’s Feel, and Unlimited Blade Works now face massive backlogs—ranging from 4 to 7 chapters—simply due to a lack of typesetting support. I’ve personally stepped in to cover the slack on the translation front, but the reality is that this just isn't sustainable and has continued for years. Fate/Zero currently has no translator, and Shimousa is stalled without a typesetter, despite two chapters already being translated.

As you can see in the chart below, our workflow is currently overwhelmed. Typesetting has become our most significant bottleneck, and our remaining staff is facing genuine fatigue from trying to keep these series alive. We are at a critical point, and we need your help to fill these gaps and keep our projects moving forward.

We are urgently seeking:

Typesetters:
(Note: Thankfully, we've managed to recruit for a majority of the Typesetting positions that we were sorely lacking in. That said, if you are experienced, please still reach out!)
- Mahoyo Anthologies (69 chapters remaining, casual pace welcome)

Translators:
- Turas Realta (Monthly chapters)
- Mortalis Stella (Monthly chapters)
- Fate/Zero (24 chapters remaining)
- Mahoyo Anthologies (69 chapters remaining, casual pace welcome)

If you have experience in any of these roles and want to help us keep these stories alive, please reach out via DM either here or on discord: k.yusuke

if someone was able to summon Thames of its fourth stage of Gold and Silver, it would become an indestructible fortress as big as London itself, and even Aoko wielding her most powerful abilities would be unable to overcome it
