    Very accurate Cruentus. Cracky story is cracky, but it was almost too much for my opinions. Funny if you are in the wtf? mood, but not something I really enjoyed enough to be library-worthy. Better suited for the almost recommended list, if we have one for F/SN.

    3/5

    As yojorocks said, too much crack. It is fine to screw with the story to make fun of some of the more silly points, but when it starts to become a meme fest it loses all meaning and fails miserably.

    It's good, but an in-depth knowledge of the Nasuverse is virtually required to get the most out of the humor. This gets a 3/5 due to sacrificing the plot for cheap gags directed at a specific audience.

    You read past the first chapter at least yes? Author was called on it and claimed he would be toning in down after the first chapter, he did as far as I'm concerned, but you might think differently, if you didn't read on that is.

    Eh, it definitely was an amusing way to kill some time after coming home today, but as stated, there are obvious discrepancies in the presentation.

    For what it's worth, at least he doesn't go 'full retard', so to speak, and maintains some value to continue reading, and I shall for the time being.

    I think I will conform agree with previous posters, and give this a three out of five for now as well.

    Cracky, true, and somewhat difficult to follow at time, but this fic is actually funny at times and is artistically speaking quite decent.

    Tentative 4/5 rating for now.

    Mm, not bad. The way Saber was describing Merlin in the latest chapters makes me really want to read a FS/N fic where Shirou summons Merlin as Caster now...
