It's post time! For today's blog post, I will be talking about my thoughts on servants in the Fate series. Firstly, I don't understand why they had to be based on real historical figures if they were going to change them anyways. I think they should've just made a fictional world with fictional history and that's it. Along with this, the whole thing is a bit confusing. It can be seen on multiple occasions that no matter what age they're summoned as, they always remember their full lifetime. So why aren't they always summoned as adults instead, so they at least keep the size and strength advantages? Why are they summoned at different life stages when most of them would be adults anyways? That being said, I do appreciate keeping most of the historical facts accurate. Of course some of it is pretty different, so it's not great for people who don't already know the history behind the servants. But there are neat Easter Eggs for people who do like history. As much as I complain, I do like the characters and servants. I just hate them messing with real life history. I do like history and adding twists and "facts" that aren't true is damaging to people who don't know the history. It just spreads misinformation and false opinions as fact. I think that's why I find it so aggravating. I think I'd like this series a lot more if they were separate characters, or only loosely based on historical figures but given different unique names. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
