I'm a bit torn about this.
On one hand, I do think that if we are able to effectively recreate consciousness that it should be treated on the same level as human consciousness. Arguments that it's artificial because it's manufactured are a bit hollow to me because humans are already able to...
I doubt many people are reading this as their first Fate series, but if they are, I'd strongly recommend they pause and read something within the main series first (would highly recommend starting with Stay Night first, specially the VN from the Fate route if possible, but the Ufotable Unlimited...
This is some strange Eldritch shit happening here. Not sure if this is intended or some kind of glitch. Latter is pretty scary to think about, but it'd be cool to find out how to abuse glitches to win quicker.
I really, really did not expect him to come out with it, given that his relationship with Ai is still completely shrouded in mystery. Any kind of connection being created could jeopardize his goals, especially if anyone connected the dots.
@Mizumachi There's probably something to be gained by "identifying" and hunting the next Haro. It's entirely possible they'll pick a political pawn as the next Haro to gain leverage over a known dissident or something.

Literally getting pierced through the heart is not an insta-kill in this world? That's pretty damn cool tbh.
There probably isn't a real significant precedent for those bandits to think that stabbing someone through the heart wouldn't kill them (maybe it's a critical damage attack that almost...
When she ascendz to heaven, huh?
Given what she did in her first life, I wouldn't be shocked if there existed a stain in her soul that would permanently bar her from heaven.
I think seeing that pile of bodies (or maybe that demon) triggered some serious fucking trauma in him. Given how relatively calm he's been up to this point, that must have been some deep-seated horror in his past.
@gormadoc Except for one thing: the chapter says he did the work that they were so interested in as a hobby, separate from his work at MIT. That would be enough plausibility to argue that MIT or whoever provided the grant doesn't have any right to it.
