- SO YOU WANT TO GET INTO THE NASUVERSE.
- Okay. Here are TYPE-MOON's works, sorted by franchise and recommended read/play/watch order. "(TEXT)" indicates the type of medium, "[TEXT]" indicates comments. Read the second half of the copypasta for important instructions and download links. Note: All stories' settings are in the same multiverse.
- Made by an /a/non. This copypasta was last updated: [DD/MM/YYYY] 10.02.2012
- TSUKIHIME
- >(VN/manga) Tsukihime [instead of the Arcueid true route, the (good!) manga can also be read]
- >(VN) Tsukihime +Plus disc
- >(VN) Kagetsu Tohya
- >(VN, Fighting Game) Melty Blood ReAct
- >(Fighting Game) Melty Blood Actress Again Current Code [no story]
- >(Info-Book) Plus Period [collection of artwork and supplementary information for the Tsukihime-franchise; interesting, but no required read]
- Melty Blood ReAct is the original game with the original story, but with an additional arcade mode and better gameplay. MBAACC is gameplay only. Both MBRA and MBAACC include net-play. Also, don't bother with the Tsukihime anime, which doesn't exist.
- FATE
- >(VN) Fate/Stay Night [there's also an ongoing manga based on F/SN's second route Unlimited Blade Works: it's supposed to be disappointing, though - read the VN]
- >(LN/anime) Fate/Zero [prequel, read F/SN first]
- >(VN) Fate/Hollow Ataraxia [untranslated sequel, TL status is 72,1% as of 01.01.2012, but they've been fast recently]
- >(Fighting Game) Unlimited Codes [PS2, PSP; no story, can be skipped]
- >(VN, Dungeon Crawler) Fate/Extra [PSP; canon, but unrelated continuity, because it plays in an alternate universe in the Nasu-multiverse; in doubt, alsways blame Zelretch; can be skipped]
- >(Info-Book) Fate/complete material [collection of artwork and supplementary information for the Fate-franchise; interesting, but no required read]
- Don't bother watching the F/SN anime or the UBW movie. The F/Z anime is very watchable, though, and an alternative to the LN (note that the LN is more complete, the anime skips some parts).
- KARA NO KYOUKAI
- >(Anime) Movie 1
- >(Anime) Movie 2
- >(Anime) Movie 3
- >(Anime) Movie 4
- >(Anime) Movie 5
- >(Anime) Movie 6
- >(Anime) Gate of Seventh Heaven [remix of movies 1 to 6; can be skipped]
- >(Anime) Movie 7
- >(Anime) Epilogue
- >(LN) Gospel of the Future [aka "Mirai Fukuin"; can be skipped]
- There's also a new manga telling the stories of the movies you can read as an alternative, but ufotable did quite a feat with the movies. They are not in chronological order, by the way (but the unchronological order is the intended order; chronological: 2-4-3-1-5-6-GoSH-7-Epilogue-GotF).
- You might want to read Tsukihime before watching KnK, because it explains some of the franchise's concepts better, but it's not necessary.
- ALL POPULAR FRANCHISES
- >(Manga) All Around TYPE-MOON - Ahnenerbe no Nichijou
- >(Anime) Carnival Phantasm [adaption of the manga Take-Moon]
- >(Tactics RPG) Battle Moon Wars
- Read/play/watch all of these only after having read/watched/played everything else, or some plot points will be confusing (at least for BMW, because "CP" and ">plot" does not comply). And that's about it.
- OTHER TM FRANCHISES
- >(LN) DDD
- >(Anime) Canaan [not Nasuverse]
- >(Shortstory) Notes
- TM has many other, less-known works. Not all of them are by Nasu (main writer) or Takeuchi (main illustrator, but also influential in the writing).
- COMING SOON
- >(VN) Mahoyo [April 2012]
- >(VN, Dungeon Crawler) Fate/Extra CCC [Spring 2012; sequel to Fate/Extra]
- --> Below: Instructions and download links <-----------------------------------------------------------------
- TSUKIHIME
- You can get a compilation of Tsukihime, Tsukihime +Plus disc and Kagetsu Tohya on BitGamer:
- http://www.bitgamer.su/details.php?id=43659
- You can get Tsukihime alone on megaupload, but make sure to get the +Plus disc and Kagetsu Tohya somewhere:
- http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1ujzv7rl
- Erogedownloads has some DDLs for the setup and the English Patch of Tsukihime (1st link) and for +Plus disc (2nd link). They do not have Kagetsu Tohya.
- http://erogedownload.com/downloads/tsukihime/
- http://erogedownload.com/downloads/tsukihime-plusdisc/
- Tsukihime is very easy to complete, but here is a guide in case you need it. I recommend trying on your own, though.
- http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/917159-tsukihime/faqs/52673
- The officially and inofficially recommended route order is...
- ..............................BEWARE, POSSIBLE SPOILER.............. Arcueid-Ciel-Akiha-Hisui-Kohaku.
- Kagetsu Tohya
- KT is much, much harder than Tsukihime. You'll have to experiment a lot. Some recommend using a guide, but it is really much more fulfilling to do it on your own. In case you are a pussy and need it:
- http://kiserai.net/kt.html
- Melty Blood Actress Again Current Code
- The following link has two copypastas with all the instructions necessary to set up MBAACC on your PC:
- http://pastebin.com/L7gJ7KBN
- /jp/ regularly has threads for net-play-sessions, /a/ sometimes, too.
- FATE
- Fate/Stay Night
- You can get the game as a patched standalone directory on BitGamer:
- http://www.bitgamer.su/details.php?id=23475
- There's also one on Piratebay (checked for viruses):
- http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4915049
- And some DDLs on Erogedownloads, but not for a standalone directory:
- http://erogedownload.com/downloads/fatestay-night/
- Note: ALL THE ABOVE F/SN LINKS STLL NEED THE RÉALTA NUA PATCH. This is important.
- Get the Réalta Nua Patch. It adds a lot of CGs, music tracks, voices, sound effects and an additional ending from the age-free PS2 version of the game. That's why there are no voices for the H-scenes. It does NOT remove any scenes or CGs. Direct link to patch 4.2:
- http://rnpatch.blogspot.com/2009/12/realta-nua-patch-version-42.html
- It's important to get the latest version or you will miss out a lot, especially CGs and music tracks. Beneath the header there is always a link to the newest version. Check whether 4.2 is still the newest.
- You can easily install by dragging the patch's files into F/SN's main directory, but read the readme for instructions.
- After having installed the 4.2 patch, install the 4.2 patch fix (link can be found in the previous link under "Update for 4.2").
- To ensure the patch has installed successfully, go into gallery mode and click on "Another". There should be 8 pages (circles) instead of 7.
- Fate/Zero
- You can get the DDL batch-release of Season 1 by UTW. Season 2 will air in April 2012.
- http://utw.me/2012/01/02/fatezero-s1-batch/
- In case you want to read the LN, mangatraders has it.
- http://www.mangatraders.com/manga/series/4761
- Other links to the LN (top-to-bottom: PDF, PDF DDL, EPUB):
- http://www.bakabt.com/152285-fate-zero-light-novel.html
- http://www.mediafire.com/?kt4f5253955wr5j
- http://www.mediafire.com/?dfmyfglnlvqowyv
- Fate/Extra
- The following link has all the instructions necessary to emulate F/E on your PC:
- http://pastebin.com/UrKNfAvp
- KARA NO KYOUKAI
- You can get the releases by Coalgirls or Afternoon Naps Empire for the anime. CG include both the retail subs and gg-TakaJun's subs (better than retail). The ANE-release is sharper, but bigger and Pretentious' subs (modified retail) ANE used for most of the movies are rather "liberal" (e.g.: "Godot's word" instead of "God's word"). They aren't wrong, but the English-speaking fanbase is familiar with TakaJun's terminology (he TL'ed the TM VNs).
