Fate/moon archive

That's right, I'm back to writing the description this week. You can tell because I know how to use capital letters, unlike a certain fen. Anyway this week we're leaning hard into the romcom antics, and watching Aoko bite off a bit more than she can chew with the lifestyle domme thing..

Next time, we’ll be covering Mahoyo chapters 9 and 10, as well as both of the available EX chapters (World of Ploys 1+2) and chapter 8.5. We'll also be playing LEAVEs to cap off our Al|Together Jam coverage. Yay!

sorry, dear listener for the quality of our episode descriptions recently. our main writer got trapped in a bottle at the end of this episode and i overheard a couple of witches debating what to do with them. hopefully she gets let out and we're able to podcast this weekend... but, in the meantime, we were barely able to get this episode recorded where we talk about things such as: was revue starlight ever good??? (yes) and will alice, aoko, and soujuurou all survive the night??? (the answer probably won't surprise you, but you might be delighted)

next time, we’ll be covering chapters 6 through 8 ex (but not 8.5, that's episode 91) of mahoyo, along with our second to last al|together game: may sky.

Today we're starting Mahotsukai no Yoru, the last proper vn type-moon made before tsukihime:re came out almost ten years later and proved that type-moon still has it.

Next time, we’ll be covering mahoyo chapters 4 and 5. For yuri teatime we're skipping al|together because we're covering revue starlight el dorado, fulfilling our quota of vns.

Closing out a run of goofy spin off works, your intrepid hosts dive into the (extremely short) Fate/ Prototype OVA! A tiny peek into an alternate version of Fate/ stay night, where Saber was a boy, Lancer had a fur coat, and Kotomine was replaced by that top hat pervert from KNK 5.

Next time, we’ll be entering the era of The Witch on the Holy Night, otherwise known as Mahou Tsukai no Yoru, or Mahoyo. We're starting off with the first three chapters, including the Seven Days of Spinning side stories that unlock between chapters 1 and 2. For Yuri Teatime we'll be discussing the A Silent Voice (Koe no Katachi) anime film, as well as the visual novel Moonshine as part of our ongoing al|Together Jam coverage

The festival is starting! This time your intrepid hosts are covering the manga Take-Moon and the anime adaptation Carnival Phantasm! Coming on the tail end of a lot of goofy spin offs, Carnival Phantasm is something of a tone setter for Type-Moon comedy going forward. Is that a good thing, or…? We also cover a cornucopia of Menhera VN Jam games, and even answer some emails that we’ve been punting for a while.

Next time, we’ll be covering the Fate/ Prototype OVA that was released as an extra episode for Carnival Phantasm. For the Al|together Jam, we’re covering The Letter, and for Yuri Teatime we’ve got Divine Despair Deviance, a Menhera Jam game we didn’t make it to this time.

In what may be our shortest episode ever, your beloved hosts come together to (nominally) discuss Melty Blood X, a short Back Alley Alliance spin off story. In practice, we mostly talk about Malcatras’ Maiden and Void Stranger. They’re a lot more fun, honestly.

Next time, we’ll be covering the Carnival Phantasm anime along with Take-Moon, the manga it’s based on. For Yuri Teatime we’ll be covering a grab bag of entries from the 2024 Menhera VN Jam. We’ll also be covering Crimsoness as part of the final phase of our Al|together Jam project.

In Which Two Girls Lean Heavily On The Yuri Teatime Segment

We have a couple small things this week to give us a break before the impending Mahoyo. First up: Room of the April Witch, a one off standalone short story. Second: Koha-Ace, a one volume meta gag manga that nominally stars Kohaku. It’s a bit of a light episode.

Next time, we’ll be covering the Melty Blood X manga, as well as the visual novel Malcatras’ Maiden. We’ll also be covering from the bottom of my heart as part of the al|together Jam.

it's back to tsukihime this week... kinda? it's the year 3000, humanity is dying, and arcueid asexually reproduces. probably. tsuki no sango is a mixed bag, but we found enough to chat about.

next time we have a grab bag of two things: room of the april witch and the first volume of koha-ace. and for yuri teatime we're doing the al|together game wanders in the sky, accompanied by the third volume of urasekai picnic and venus meets venus.

The tidal pressure of the digital see draws us ever deeper… This time we’re covering Fate/EXTRA weeks 4-5, both the Rin and Rani route. They’re uh, not as divergent as you might hope.

Next time, we’ll be covering the end of EXTRA. Send questions! For Yuri Teatime we’ll be covering the full run of Blue Reflection Ray, the anime sequel to the jrpg Blue Reflection. On top of that we have The World To Reverse (both hallucinate and Flanca) as part of the Al|together jam.
