The Lore of Witch on the Holy Night

Ойындар

With on the Holy Night, or Mahou Tsukai no Yoru, is finally available in English, letting the world experience what I consider to be the most gorgeous visual novel ever made. This is my definitive lore of the game, which spoils the entire story. I highly recommend you play it for yourself.

    Imagine if Touko was the one who inherited the 5th magic. would there be anyone able to stop her at that point? She's already basically immortal so giving her god level magic on top of that would be so much worse. At that point I think she would give Zelretch a run for his money.

    Honestly, it’s clear that the only way a human or mage can be implemented into FGO as a playable character is to make them pseudo servants. In the case of Aoko or Shiki Tohno, I would at least hope that they are implemented similarly to Shiki Ryougi, Prisma Ilya, Kuro, and Miyu. Basically just make them servant incarnations of themselves rather than have them be vessels for deities.

    What a great VN. The characters, animation and music were really top notch. What really stood out for me was that it managed to tell a pretty small scale story compared to other Nasu works, which I think made the story easier to follow and gave the characters more time to just chill and show the different facets of their personalities.

    Well, it feels small scale (since it is presented as just a pair of mages quarreling over land ownership) but when you dig in you realize it is actually a huge deal (it’s a fight over True Magic after all) and presents new concepts. Nasu just managed to tell a very high stakes story while making it feel like a small stakes one.

    Wow I actually saw more of this story than I thought when the non official stuff was translated. I got up to right before touko was formally introduced but knew the stuff after the epilogue somewhat Yeah I love this story a lot and wish it was an anime instead but my guess is that's going to be reserved for tsukuhime as like ubw it's an introduction to an entire franchise and mahoyo is not as big to both knk and tsukuhime. Surprised you didn't bring up the way aoko acts around people which like Rin makes senses to how they treat shirou and sojurou and normal people being magus and it made me like the story more as it's basically a good way to show even while close magus have to put up barriers between them and humans. Hopefully like Nero chaos we can see these characters in part 3 of fgo if they go different universe way instead of timeline what ifs Instead. I'd love a whole alice aoko sequel storyline. Also don't know why but i always enjoy the arc/illya pose takeuchi and nasu seemingly love on most characters

But of course, because she is Not the protagonist the story automatically flips a misfortunate loss on her. What I am more curious about is how do the Aozaki sister finally resolve their tension in the near-future since the Extra-verse timelines spoilt a possibility of them somewhat getting along. Soujuro is one of the most bizarre existences of all, so being out of touch from modern society makes anyone capable of harming a nigh-invulnerable wolf spirit?

    What I know before watching the video: Aoko Aozaki is a young magus who was chosen to succeed her grandfather as the inheritor of the Aozaki family magic crest. Her elder sister Touko was enraged to be passed over and was believed to have murdered Grandpa Aozaki in retaliation but that was actually a friend of Touko’s. Aoko lives with a witch named Alice Kuonji, who uses strange magical traps called Ploys, some of which are alive in a sense. Aoko’s magecraft is witnessed by a young man named Soujuurou who Aoko and Alice attempt to capture to erase his memories. When Aoko and Alice come to disagree on how to progress, Alice traps Aoko and Soujuurou in an amusement park with one of the strongest of her Ploys called Flat Snark. Aoko eventually realizes that Flat Snark has impersonated the full moon and they are in danger of being annihilated by its massive strike. In desperation, Aoko calls upon hidden reserves of strength and unconsciously channels the Fifth Magic. After this, Aoko and Alice agree to host Soujuurou temporarily while researching a method of removing his memories. Aoko is attacked by a frightful doll that bears a resemblance to her, and it is revealed at the climax that Touko sent it to try to kill her. Touko herself attacks using a massive array of magic crests taken from other magi with the aid of a powerful Elemental named Lugh Beowulf, who is NOT a werewolf but similar to one. Soujuurou reveals he is a practitioner of “Snake,” the same martial art used by Souichirou Kuzuki and deals Lugh a devastating (but non fatal) defeat, the first he’s ever experienced. Touko murders Soujuurou in retaliation and Aoko properly uses the Fifth Magic to save Soujuurou then defeats and curses Touko so she cannot attack again for many years. I don’t believe they mentioned it in the story but Touko weaseled out of the curse by killing herself and swapping into another of her doll bodies. Aoko eventually finds a memory removing spell but chooses not to use it and presumably stays friends with Soujuurou. I’m sure I missed quite a bit, but let me know how much.

    @justasoulsfan9805 Жыл бұрын

    I just finished the main story on new year's eve and imho it indeed is the BEST STORY Nasu has ever written. It serves as a good introduction for the Nasuverse and benefits a lot from its simplicity. Nasu managed to avoid the pitfalls he falls victim to in his other works. No forced romance (although it feels like Nasu intended to ship Soujuurou with the "witches" but restrained himself at the last minute), no overly long lore and info dumps, no badly written hentai scenes, no pretentious rambling over ideals, no edgelord-moments for the sake of being edgy. Just Aoko, Alice & Soujuurou being themselves and interacting with each other & the support cast. I also liked Touko as a villain. Idk why people claimed that MahoYo made them look at Touko in a different way regarding how she was portrayed in KnK. In both works Touko has the exact same personality. It's just that her rivalry with Aoko comes into play here. That being said, Aoko is easily the best Type Moon protagonist (sry not sorry Shirou-stans) and is the best TM "tsundere" too. There I said it. She's essentially Rin, but even meaner at times. With her only being good at destruction and how she's treated as this feared student council president, her very outgoing/energetic and downright aggressive attitude makes her stand out much more compared to the rather reserved protagonists Nasu usually writes. It kinda reminds me of how Falcom wrote Estelle Bright in the Kiseki series. Alice on the other hand is just precious. Both were wholesome female leads. The biggest surprise for me was the church father though. Eiri Fumizuka was so based. Imagine Kirei but more bi-shounen. His dialogue with Soujuurou in Chapter 11 was one of my favorite scenes. MahoYo also has my favorite ending. Soujuurou and Aoko just talk and wonder over the future, ending with Soujuurou's "happy new year". And then the supercell song kicks in. I really liked the underlying theme of the story (the uncertain march into the future). The fights between the magicians were good as well. Not as over the top as FSN or TsukiRE but you can follow what happens. For me, Mahou Tsukai no Yoru is easily Nasu's magnum opus. MahoYo stays consistently good while his other works have higher highs but infuriating lows at times. Now I'm interested in the sequels.

    I think Mahoyo "avoids" all the pitfalls because it was originally written completely free of any thoughts about selling it or even fan appeal. The original version was published in 1996 (2 years before even the original release of KnK as a web novel on the original Bamboo Broom website) and all the "books" released were a few made at copy shop. Tsukihime was written to sold at a convention as a fan project, and even KnK was put up on a website to represent Nasu and Takeuchi. I guess the original Mahoyo was the most "pure" of Nasu's works to be completed [not talking about the Old Fate ideas developed even earlier as that was never completed before Type Moon returned to it], given that it lacked additional years of exposure to the anime/manga fandom and it's trends (though I won't deny that Nasu had already some experience when the wrote the original Mahoyo in his early 20s). And I guess Nasu wanted to really capture that same feeling with the released VN version. That being said, I do like the more recent works as well, so I don't think Nasu's writing has really been "spoiled" by those additional experiences. I enjoy the new Tsukihime as well, and honestly, to me it is just as good (albeit different) from Mahoyo - all that it lacks is the ingenious directing of Tsukuri Monoji who made practically every shoot in Mahoyo looking like a CG even even it was using sprites.

If anything I think he got significantly worse or tries too hard to cater to the modern anime/manga fandom. Especially FGO and Tsukihime Remake are guilty of that. It hurts even more if one has read the original Tsukihime and sees what TM did to it and Melty Blood. Although I'm interested in the MahoYo sequels I expect them to be very similar to Tsukihime Remake. At least I can safely ignore them in that case and treat MahoYo 1 as a self contained story.

    Shirou ( and Fujimaru ) is the worst protagonists in TYPE-MOON, for me. The whole idea of Shirou in the VN ( pulling humans and a Servant as harem is like the idea of a beginner mangaka who is trying to write a unintentionally generic isekai story with the MC being an edgelord and have hidden power and could overpower Servants when the freaking Rin Tohsaka ( the direct descendant from the three families that created the Holy Grail War, have a specialty in Jewel Magecraft that could be used as an offensive or defensive weapons and have access to Gandr Shots that is absolutely destructive and is similar to Aoko's Destruction Magic and could literally project the freaking sword of Zelretch, a weapon created by the wielder of Second Magic himself and almost defeated Angra Mainyu + Greater Grail Corrupted Sakura who is said to have reached a TRILLION Magical Units during the final fight of Heaven's Feel route if it weren't for her intentionally lowering her guard down ) couldn't do the same shit as Shirou can do. He's an edge-lord, a reincarnation of those mediocre and trash male MC from generic isekai anime who is "i'M wEaK, bUt tHerE's a hIddEn tAleNt iNsiDe mE tHat cAn mAke mE sO pOweRfUl iT can aTtrAct hArem aNd dO whAt tHe briGhtEst mAge iN mY eNtIrE fReaKinG gEnerAtIon of mAgUseS cAn't dO". Thankfully Kara no Kyoukai and Witch on The Holy Night is there to show that female MCs can be more competent and doesn't need to be a fantasy-derived cringe edgelord who is "tHe hErO oF jUstiCe". Cringe at the max.
