Type-Moon's worldview is large and deep enough, and there are many works, so there will be various deviations in understanding. Here we will provide unified answers to certain questions.
Question 1: Erye's temper has been getting better and better recently, and he has become more and more "soft-hearted", and he is tending to become a fat otaku.
Answer: In fact, Shinji has a good temper. As long as his interests are not violated in substance, he will not care too much about minor verbal conflicts, or even minor injuries, pains, and losses. People who care about trivial matters will never achieve great things. Take the example of Liz Baifei almost crippling Shinji's left hand. First, it didn't cripple him, it was just a false alarm. Second, Shinji knew that Liz Baifei was a strong idiot with an upright character and really had no ill intentions. There was no benefit in fighting with such a guy, so he just said a few words. On the contrary, if it endangers his personal interests or even his life, he will be more ruthless than anyone else. Chongye is the best example. You will also see some ruthless performances of Shinji in the upcoming Fa.
Question 2: Why did they go to the Clock Tower? They didn't even want to leave their old nest
Answer: It is really useless to stay in the old nest. The master's legacy has been engraved in his mind. The family's development is going step by step. There are two old hands, Orange and Kiritsugu, to help. There is really no need for him in Japan. It is better to go to a wider world. The headquarters of the Magic Association, the Clock Tower, is the best choice. There are the best resources, the most knowledge, and the most magicians here. These environments are very helpful.
Question 3: Why should I help Lorelaia and work under her
Answer: Shinji went to the clock tower to fight for more benefits and capital for himself and the development of his family. Since this is inevitable, he has to help others. It doesn't matter who he helps. And the second master's troops belong only to Lorelaya. When Lorelaya accepted the inheritance of the seal, it was equivalent to him directly making the decision and having a very high degree of autonomy. In other words, the second master is not very good at winning people's hearts, otherwise he would have directly set up the empty and put his own mark on it. Of course, I have to admit that this paragraph is not as good as the one in Fate. This is because my writing skills and imagination are not enough. You can criticize it as you like. I can accept it.
Secondly, although Mushroom didn't give Lorelaia much of a role, she is one of the highest-ranking people on the magic side, higher than Kenneth. Barthomello is the first noble of the Clock Tower, and Lorelaia is the lord of Barthomello, the queen of the Clock Tower. More importantly, she is very proud, and it is undoubtedly of great benefit to Shinji to owe such a person a debt of favor. The resources of the Barthomello family are not comparable to those of the Matou family, or even El-Melloi. With Barthomello as a backing, Shinji will grow faster and faster, and Orange and Sakura, who are far away in Japan, can also get the things they need through Shinji.
Question 4: Wearing the clothes of Japanese people, using Japanese names, calling Japanese people dad, but obsessing over the issue of kimono, is this hypocrisy, affectation, or tsundere
Answer: Neither. It is not Erye who can decide who to travel to. That is what Jian Shao decides. He has already worn it. If you can't accept it, then just commit suicide. Since you have accepted it, it's nothing. As for not wearing kimono, that is the last persistence of Shinji to his Chinese heart. You can say that he is hypocritical, pedantic, and ridiculous, but people always have to insist on something. This is Shinji's bottom line and it cannot be shaken. The Erye I created can be funny, vicious, and insidious, but his values must be correct. Recently, more and more protagonists in novels have incorrect values. Jian Shao does not want the protagonists in his works to be such characters.
Question 5: Type-Moon is a cruel world, and the protagonist should be more cold-blooded and utilitarian.
Answer: How should I answer this question? There is cruelty, but it is mostly on the dark side. In fact, it is no different from the real world, and there are still more good people. To be honest, the deep and dark influence of the Type-Moon world mostly comes from Urobuchi. Apart from this warrior of love, from the originator Mushroom to the various worlds derived from it, such as the Second Case Files, FSF, and FA, there are indeed deep and dark backgrounds, but the main plot and theme are still to convey positive energy.
Question 6: Aren’t all magicians cold-blooded and extremely utilitarian? Why aren’t the ones you wrote about like that
Answer: This is not the fault of Jian Shao, but the fault of Mushroom, really. It's funny to think about it. The setting of the magic world is obviously like this, but in fact, there are really few magicians who are mainstream. They are all outliers. Rin, Sakura, Orange, Aoko, the director, Corles, Fiore, Weber, Sfin, Flatt, and even the staff of Chaldea, etc. Most of the people who can be named are flesh and blood, have emotions, and have relatively good values. Including Kenneth and Lorelei, the two lords of the clock tower.
Another point worth mentioning is that if you read the settings and plot descriptions of magicians carefully, you will find that the humanity of magicians is gradually killed in family education. Most of the magicians that Shinji comes into contact with are growing magicians, who still retain a considerable amount of humanity and are not so cold in comparison.
As for the E-Team, they are a group of outliers. The magicians' secrecy and utilitarianism make it impossible for them to become a team that eliminates individual consciousness and advocates collective consciousness. Therefore, this team itself is abnormal and naturally cannot be viewed according to common sense.
Shinji has been in contact with people like this all the time, so he can't be cold-blooded and cruel even if he wants to.
Question 7: Some readers said that Jian Shao simply used the names of Type-Moon characters to apply to the main and supporting characters, and they are not the same person at all.
Answer: This is what I cannot stand the most. What a joke! Except for Bai Yu, a character who was created to extend the plot, every character I wrote has been researched and verified. This is the greatest pride and principle of a senior Yue Fan and a fan of Yue Fan. Every dialogue and every character's action in the article is well documented. This is the accumulation of my ten years of Yue Fan career. I will only speculate on things that are really vague. You can question, but you can show me the real stuff - as long as the real stuff is substantial, I will not hesitate to make changes or apologize.
Question 8: I have no objection to you writing about unpopular characters, but you should at least post the background and settings.
Answer: Dear readers, I have posted enough. I have posted everything that can be posted. I have sorted out almost all the information I have collected. I feel that long articles are not good. The things that are not written are either not in the plot yet or the mushrooms are not given. If you still don’t understand, just Baidu. The good thing is that Type-Moon is well-known. The encyclopedia basically has everything. Although there are some subtle errors, most of them are still correct. If you still don’t understand, just add the reader group and ask. Jian Shao will explain it in detail.
That’s all for now. If you have any questions, please continue to ask. This chapter says that you can leave a message in the book review section and I will answer them one by one.
