Can you do a video about Christopher Columbus? A lot of his history is obscured by today's culture. He wasn't really that an evil person. One of the most well-known records that we have of him is meeting the tainu people. Headhunters that were Christianed and baptized by Columbus and we're assimilated into society and sent off to Spain. They really didn't become slaves at all. Not only that but there is a journal of his in the us capital on display. The only mention of him being an evil racist was when he sent a letter to the queen of Spain that they could sell one "CANNIBAL" for the price of 3 savages. Also look up some stuff about the encomienda that Columbus was a part of. It has its roots based on the practices of exalting tribute to the Muslims and Jews after the reconquista and also reducing forced labor. ever since the new world, it has been a legal system of defining of the indigenous people.
@@alfonsodeltez1233 I plan to do all FGO servants who are not TM originals - and that includes Columbus. I've thought about how his video might go a few times, actually, since he is actually a pretty interesting counter to many other Fate servants who have their uglier traits covered up.
The awesomeness of Constantine's NP animation is only surpassed by the disappointment of his defensive buffs only lasting a single turn😢 Edit: I'm surprised you didn't mention that his NP having three defensive buffs is a clear reference to the three - layered walls of Constantinople
A fun fact about his noble phantasm is that he received an NP animation update about a week after his release on JP. On release, his NP showed the Hagia Sophia with minarets, however once the devs realized that the minarets were added after his death, they updated his NP animation to the current one. If you check out his videos from the FGO youtubers who did his showcase for JP on his release, you can see the minarets of Hagia Sophia in there.
20:24 I don’t blame him for being terrified down to his bones. He may be the great conqueror of Constantinople, but what he saw that day in Wallachia would make even the greatest warrior kings fall to their knees in absolute terror.
Story Mode Constantine - He must be stopped! Playable Constantine - HE NEEDS A HUG!!!! I cried everytime I hear his NP Theme and a specific NP line during it. His Bond CE further solidifies what a tragic soul he is.
Constantine is the definition of right man born at the wrong time. He was a suprisingly good ruler for majority of his reign. But Byzantine was well-known for its trickery and betrayal among the nobles so Constantine could'nt do much to save it. His last stance was respected even among Turks at that point. That may be one of the reason why Mehmed II did'nt rename the city Constantinople when he was alive.
i think 6 months is reasonable, it takes less than that to reach end of story as a new player depending on what supports you take on story to difficult fights
@@CrazyYurie It's like a fun project that TM had a bit back in around 2017 the servants there are the winners of a contest for the fans to write up their own servants set up with the writers of Himuro's world and TM at large there is a short animation of it by Ufotable of all people.
@@CrazyYurieYeah, basically the only time in the franchise when they have acknowledged fanservants. If they ever made them seriously, they'll probably skip these designs in any case. Just like they skipped Noah and Sherlock from that contest.
Its hilarious because now Kronks' NP is now busted. Kornk(stantine, its my nickname to him) is my fave Rider in terms of lore because Im a sucker for Post-Roman divide history. I wish Mehmed II would pop up in FGO
Mehmed the 2nd coming to Chaldea: Hello! If it isn't my two sworn enemies, how's it been? How are your empires doing? Oh wait 😏 Ritsuka desperately trying to hold back Konstaninos and Vlad: *WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT*
_Winston Churchill walks in_ "Yes, how IS your empire doing Mehmed?" Of course we probably won't get Churchill as a servant in Fate, but he is one person I could think of who could give that rebuttal. :o
@@CrazyYurie The circle of history spins round and round. I'm sure there are a couple Knights of Malta who might have some choice words for one of the great Ottoman Sultans.
Thank you so much Constatine is by far one if not my favorite rider because he is just a man who needs a hug and just want to protect his people to the very end. I wish you beought up how in his final battle Constatine went into the battle with his normal soldiers uniform on instead of his royal attire. To show that he was a soldier to the very end.
I think spoiler warnings should be given whenever possible regardless, it wouldn't overly inconvenience most people but for the new players that will always be coming in it might be something they care about quite a bit
I love Constantine's second ascension, its like a permanent ptsd face. As if he's going "How tf am I going to explain that I am the last emperor of their empire?" when he get summon to Chaldea as the Last emperor of the Roman Empire?
well they would know wouldn't they given that they're brought up to date with the language and important info about the current world. and I'm pretty sure they're all aware of how things progressed after their time though since it has been a bit I could be wrong :p
The fall of the byzantine empire and the ottoman empire history is a part of history that was drilled into my head by my history teacher in middle school But despite the struggle in school it was the part I enjoyed the most since my family visits turkiye every year so seeing the historical sites in person made it even more special I'm still waiting for fate to add Mehmet II one day
I'd say Constantine's colours match up alright. The way we view and describe colours has varied across time and cultures, which you can see in the etymology of some colour terms across languages. Roux, russet and rose are cognates that describe red, orange/brown and pink. Some languages don't distinguish between blue and green or do it differently than in english. Pourpre comes from the latin purpura same as purple but is more of a purplish red. You can see the same thing with grapes, where the purple ones give you juice with a similar red/purple. There were multiple species of murex snails being used for pigment, which didn't produce quite the same colour. The museum recreations of the dyes show that in addition to the classic purple, one was more reddish purple and another was basically red. The overall impression I've gotten is that Tyrian purple was actually a group of purples made in Tyre and that those purples included shades we'd consider more red than purple. None should be any more or less authentic, since narrowing the term down to just one would overlook the original context of the term. It's a bit like people assuming any historical reference to light/gold hair automatically means light blond even when it's more likely to have been light brown. Using a less conventional Tyrian purple for Constantine was a good choice. Experimenting with different shades allows exploration of the different purples that likely held that name while also giving some variety to designs. Everyone wearing the exact same purple would get repetitive.
Tyrian Purple, specifically the dye extracted from the snails which is ludicrously expensive to produce, is the reason why purple is considered a royal color since only emperors could afford it but it's more like a shade of maroon than it is the typical modern understanding of purple which is definitely more on the blue side of the spectrum.
As contrast in the Roman emperors, Nero Claudius was who start to hunting down the christians, while Constantine was who put an end to this pursuing, to end adopting the Christianism as religion of the Roman empire
@@CrazyYurie Yeah, he was who allowed that the Christianism become an official religion in the Roman empire, allowing it spreads its influence for the known world.
I hope we'll get a Turk servant one day. Currently there's not a single Turk servant in the entire game. And I dont think we saw any in any anime or manga of fate as well. It would be fun to have Mehmed II and have him talk with Iskandar about conquest.
I think you should make compendium/follow up videos for Sherlock/Moriarty and Marie Antonette for any new developments in story or mistakes made in the initial videos
@CrazyYurie I made a slight mistake and said grandfather instead of great grandfather, but yes, Constantine and Ivan are related. Specifically, Ivan's father is the son of Sophia Palaiologos who is the daughter of Thomas Palaiologos who is Constantine's brother. Suprised FGO never made Ivan and Constantine interact with each other.
@@moviedudexd5579 So that would make Konstantinos a great-granduncle to Ivan? There are closer biological relationships than that which aren't referenced but it's still a cool connection to make especially since the Rus were longtime rivals of the Byzantines. On this other hand, this particular Ivan is Lostbelt Ivan who mutated into a giant demonic mammoth so it might be a bit of an awkward introduction.
1:50 so this is my first time seeing this character design so I can’t comment on how accurate or fitting it is to the character, but I do find his second form (the light armour) to be a really pretty design, somthing about the way it fits him just looks really nice. I think I recognise the art style but I can’t quite place where I’ve seen it before.
Constantine's Illustrator is someone named "Kurahana Chinatsu". Slapping their name into a search gave me results for things like Fire Emblem and other various projects. :o
@@CrazyYurie ah that’s where I recognise them from, they did character artwork for fire Emblem: three houses. Thanks for dropping the name of the artist
Having played extensively EU4, the premiere history simulation game (keeping in mind this is just a game so my testimony is shaky) I can support the thought that Constantine could and would have turned his empire around if he had gotten the aid he requested. It would not have been easy but it 100% would have been doable.
We need a three way grail front event set in Istanbul lead by Constantine, Vlad and Mehemed being introduced. And since it’s a special grail front a ruler will be summoned that being Pope Johanna and Kriemheild being there to plan a vacation for herself, seigfried and Seig in Istanbul.
20:24 Huh, i didn't know much about European history, so seeing Vlad is a suprised to me. That's make Traum kinda ironic with the situation of Constantine and Vlad. Now rethink of it, it would be more ironic if Mehmed II got summoned during Traum.
I make a point of trying to point out connections or similarities between Fate characters - so that people can realize that some of them are actually related to each other in some way. Or, I find a way to connect them. I'll be doing this in my upcoming video on Roland by bringing in Charles-Henri Sanson of all people. :o
It's pretty sad that no western resources talk about the help Orban got from Turks when building the cannon. In original cannon wasnt that big but with the help of Turks it got bigger and made stronger. It's even stated in some Turkish resources that Mehmed II oversee the building of the cannon himself.
3 months is reasonable but for main interludes you should wait for 3 months after they become main interludes as not everyone has played the original run of the event.
Make another Mehmed II video about him try to be a little documented. Well his hobby about poetry at young age. The difference of Arabs and Persians and other tribes.
Hey, why didn't you include the np upgrade done in the jp version of the game. Because the upgrade in his np was detailed in the Traum story Section too. I know that most your viewers are na players but I think that you include this thing too (just my opinion). Btw love your videos 👍❤
I do not. People have given me some monies via supers here on RU-vid though. Should I set up a Patreon? The thing is... I don't know what benefits I could offer people who would join that. x_x
@@CrazyYurie it's a capitalist society if people are choosing to give you money without getting anything in return I say let them, could always just add something later if needed
