If Japan is supposed to be an absolute backwater as far as the world of magic goes in the Nasuverse, how come all the most busted magi in the setting come from here? Every non-Japanese magi we see save for Zelretch is a complete jobber when compared to nipponese magi.
>>712881058 (OP)Because it's written by a japanese author and nationalism demands they make nippon number ichi at everything.
>>712881254But then why say very early on that Japan is supposed to be a backwater compared to the world of western mages...
Rin was so hot in the UBW movie...
>>712881368Japanese humility posteuring
framing yourself as an underdog makes everything you do that much more special
>>712881368To make them seem more impressive. It's the same reason why there's a ton of isekai stories out there where black hair is special. It's all for self-wank
Deen Rin looked so much better than ufotable Rin.
>>712881058 (OP)The 3 mage families are all dead now though. Rin is alive but she's getting bonged.
Rin and the Aozakis are the only magi of note from Japan though, every other magus of note is a gaijin with a funny name. Rin just wins because she has protag plot armor.
>>712881989The families besides the Tohsakas were never Japanese, though.
But that still leaves the Aozaki sisters.
>>712882025VN lore says that Sakura with training could probably mog even Rin, though.
Because years ago they decided Japan was an appropriate backwater for their massive mage's duel, the Holy Grail War.
Over the years, big mage families moved to Japan to get a home field advantage in said war
Never forget

>>712881058 (OP)Then how come Shirou has a micro dick?
>>712882273The HGW is the magical equivalent of a nigerian prince scam. Nobody besides the people directly involved took it seriously until there was a reason to take it seriously.
>>712881058 (OP)Every Fate series after the VN has more busted servants and masters just for the lulz and most of them aren't Japanese
>>712882340He can just trace a bigger dick.
If anything Gawain has it worse since when the sun's out his dick is thrice as big, but when it's night time it's thrice as small.
