The time of the bunny is almost upon us.

I love this girl and all 8 of her toes.

Those summer maybe over, but she'll always have a place here in Chaldea.

>summer days maybe over

She's cooler than you.

>>4422678
Never realised how good she would look in black.

>>4424323
Bruh this your first time seeing Saber Alter?

>>4412002 (OP)
Got into Fate/Stay Night and just finished the Fate route a few days ago, and I have to say I love Saber

>>4425458
She is the best.

>>4425458
I'm really glad you enjoyed her story in the Fate route! She's absolutely amazing, and I've loved her for nearly 17 years now.

I highly recommend reading Garden of Avalon, which is her backstory before Fate/Zero, discussing the Type-Moon version of the Legend of King Arthur. Its a relatively short read, but is very important to her story in FSN, Zero, and various chapters of FGO (Camelot, and Lostbelt 6, specifically). It's a relatively short read at about ~70 pages long (counting illustrations). It was released with the Unlimited Blade Works Blu-ray box set. It was written by Kinoko Nasu, so it's the most canon version of her story regarding her life before becoming a servant. Here is a fan translation:

Not sure how Rin or Sakura will top her, but I suppose I shall see
>>4425496
Oh thank you anon, I'll try to read this soon, right now I'm reading Unlimited Blade Works vn actually which is funny since you said it was part of the blu-ray for the anime

A really great artist here.

Fall vibes with the King.

Why is she so perfect?

>>4431661
Because perfection is something you strive for, but can never obtain.

>>4431661
She's beautiful, cool, the Elder God-tier character archetype (kuudere), she's cute, innocent, fun to pick on, loyal, independent, smart/calm, respectable, tragic, kind, dorky, modest, the artist behind her is crazy about her, she's mother fucking King Arthur, she's badass, an empowering female character, charming, charismatic, confident, I could go on if I had all day. Takeuchi was a genius with her design.

She's a girl. A girl!

Happy Halloween!
