Reader’s Question:
In Fate’s Heaven’s Feel route, True Assassin was summoned using Kojiro Sasaki as a catalyst. Is this possible because Kojiro was summoned as a servant due to a rule violation by Caster? Or can any servant be used as a catalyst to summon a new servant?
Unraveling the Mystery of
True Assassin in Fate’s Heaven’s Feel
You know, diving into the world of Fate can feel like stepping into a complex web of lore and rules, right? When I read the question about True Assassin being summoned using Kojiro Sasaki as a catalyst, it sparked a flood of thoughts. I mean, how wild is it that a character like Kojiro, who was essentially a “fake” Assassin due to Caster’s rule violation, could still be used in such a significant way? It’s like a comedy sketch where the punchline is delivered in the most unexpected moment. I can picture someone trying to explain it over a casual dinner, maybe with a few too many snacks on the table, and suddenly everyone bursts into laughter at the absurdity of it all. You know, like when I once tried to explain manzai to my friends, and they just didn’t get why the straight man and the funny guy were so hilarious together. Sometimes the context is what makes it all so rich and layered. Now, back to the lore! The explanation that the summoner, Zouken, is the original creator of the Fuyuki Servant system adds another layer of intrigue. It’s almost like he has the cheat codes to the game. Imagine being in a video game where you just know all the glitches and hacks—Zouken is that player. The fact that he could summon True Assassin because he was aware of the mechanics and loopholes of his own system gives me this thrill of excitement. It’s like discovering a secret level in a game you thought you knew inside out. And I totally agree that if True Assassin had been summoned normally, Zouken wouldn’t have been able to use that catalyst to summon another servant. That makes the whole situation feel even more unique and almost magical in a way. It’s like a rare moment in a comedy show where everything aligns perfectly, and you’re left in awe of how they pulled it off. But let’s not forget that even with all this genius, True Assassin’s manifestation was still incomplete. It’s almost poetic, isn’t it? Just like in life, sometimes we think we have everything figured out, only to realize there’s still that one piece missing. It makes me reflect on how we often strive for perfection but end up with something a little imperfect—and that’s okay! So, what do you think? Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you understood the rules so well that you could bend them a bit? Or maybe you’ve had a moment where everything didn’t go as planned, but it turned out to be a memorable experience anyway? I’d love to hear your stories or tips in the comments!
