      It's kinda boring, and how it was portrayed was kinda bad. For example, while Siegfried was very similar in his disposition in following his Master's order, he still had his own will, when he saved Sieg. Diarmuid however showed that he was willing to allow Waver (who was introduced as one of the underdogs and everyone loves underdogs) to be tortured. Now if he had at least offered protests or threatened Kayneth then he would be much better liked.

      I remember a post on Pinterest which basically gave this argument and my response was that these two outcomes are kinda hard-wired into their spirit origins due to how they met their end in life.
      Diarmuid is fated to be betrayed by his master and die a miserable death while Cu is fated to die but avenge himself on his killer. It's only natural that history would repeat itself when they are put in those circumstances as Servants.

      @@kylepessell1350 it definitely is the circumstances of fate, pretty usual for mythological beings and how fate can screw you over. I just find it interesting that at least for Diarmuid, the circumstance of his fate kind of makes him appear "lesser" in the eyes of fans, if that makes sense. Diarmuid's loyalty was/is never rewarded and Cu was always more of a go-getter. I always figured that was just something the fanbase or people in general valued more.

Diarmuid does actually have a lot on Cu in terms of being heroic in the modern sense due to his more admirable knightly ideals. Cu might have more feats (basically the Irish version of Heracles) but his inspiration on a classic Greek hero also means that he has a number of issues with personality flaws similarly to them.

    His death is supposed to be distasteful and pitiful, to leave a sharp negative impression on the audience seeing this hitherto noble Hero in anguish and bitterness as a direct consequence of Kiritsugu's underhanded actions. It solidified the ideological gap between Artoria and Kiritsugu while continuing the idea that the Grail War is far from the contest of champions one may romanticize it as.

    The biggest difference between Diarmuid and Cu is that Cu knew Kirei was treacherous, while Diarmuid had faith in, and supported his Master, until his betrayal.
    So basically, Cu was prepared for this outcome, and Diarmuid wasn’t and it also opened old wounds, because he’s been screwed over in an almost identical way before.

This is what earned him his Guts skill and hard-wired an ability to avenge his own death onto his Spirit Origin.

    I love Diarmuid's death because it's so visceral but understandable why he's betrayed. Not to mention is serves to highlight Kiritsugu's ruthless methods and how those methods are such anthima to both Saber and Diarmuid who's concept of war differs so much from the modern. Plus him cursing the grail and war sticks with you the rest of the war and leads into Kiritsugu's monologue about war.
    Seems like they just wanted Diarmuid to last out and granted the would be memorable but it's way more powerful that he rakes them over the coals with a speech as he disappears imo.

      When my Brother first watched Fate/Zero I quickly informed him that there are clear inspirations from Berserk in Nasu's work, and one of the things he actually said was that in berserk curses hold actual power and gravity, so when Diarmuid cursed the grail the war and those that sullied his honor they were all met with disaster.
      Kayneth and his fiance both died immediately after being rendered helpless and harmless, maiya was murdered by berserker, iri was killed and went into the mind-fuck that was the grail process, Saber was forced to confront and kill her best friemd driven insane by the guilt of his crimes, and Kiritsugu lost everything that he had as the city was engulfed in flames by his own hand, and forced to pick up whatever pieces he could to save hinself and just one person

    I think that it’s important to remember that Diarmuid was borderline obsessive over being loyal to his master because of what he did in his lifetime. Even after death, he was guilt ridden by what he did. I’d argue that what he wanted from the grail war wasn’t the grail, but the opportunity to atone and be the perfect knight again. The epitome of loyalty and integrity

  • @lenleon3699
    @lenleon3699 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    Even if you put everything in perspective the anger is mostly on how Urobuchi does Diarmuid dirty. He uses him on his weakest classes, with his weakest weapons and then focuses purely on breaking him, because of course no noble or chivalrous character can EVER be happy in an Urobuchi story.
    Also, the big comparison is how they both react to the unfairness of the circumnstances. Diarmuid breaks, because Urobuchi just rolls that way (never mind it took a cursed boar to kill Diarmuid in his tale). While Cu Chulainn, in a nod to the story of his death, refuses to die to the last, doing it mostly on his own terms. So yeah, in the end we can blame the writer.

    • @LuckyTheReviewer
      @LuckyTheReviewer 16 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yeah looking into him, Diarmuid is kind of in an unfortunate situation where he usually always carried one of his spears along with one of his swords but never both spears or both swords: It's stated when going on a life-threatening adventure, he'd carry Moralltach and Gae Dearg but when danger was scarce, he'd carry Beagalltach and Gae Buidhe and once you read their abilites, it's become clear that Moralltach and Gae Dearg are more for an all in attacks while Beagalltach and Gae Buidhe are good for a war of attrition. When he's a saber, he has the means to take an opponent down with Moralltach but has no way to bypass any magical effects that would get in the way. As a lancer, he has means to bypass magical effects with Gae Dearg, but he lacks the power to secure the kill. On the flipside, Beagalltach can give Saber Diarmuid the means to last longer in a fight but that doesn't really mean much when Moralltach's main way of fighting is jumping into the air and skydropping at his opponent. Likewise, while Gae Buidhe can slowly weaken an opponent the more wounds he creates with it, Gae Dearg doesn't offer the defensive buff to make a drawn out fight possible.
      While I'd say his Saber self is still the better choice since his weapons don't conflict as much as his lancer weapons do, it's still not the most optimal class for Diarmuid since his fighting style has never been two swords or two lances but always one sword and one lance and it's dependent on what sort of adventure or battle he's heading into. Maybe some day we can see Diarmuid with his optimal weapon sets but given the only classes he seems to qualify for are Saber and Lancer, it may be something we never get to see.

      I think they both are great and very much so capable in their own aspects. Let’s break this down. When Cu was given the order, he refused to go down because there was something he needed to accomplish before he died (which was to save Tohsaka). So even tho Cu knew his death was inevitable, he chose to will power it through until he saved Tohsaka. However, when Diarmuid ended himself, he knew his death was inevitable but he had no will to stay anchored, no attachments, no obligations before he returned to the throne. If he did, I’m sure he would have went down much more gallantly. He chose to curse the grail instead which foreshadowed the dark premonition revealed during the final events of zero.

    Diarmuid in his own right is a terrifying lancer, a lot of issues with the lancer class servants is most of them are so powerful, they have to be cheated out. if you actually understand there lore Cu and Diarmuid are scary as hell in terms of powers like artoira shouldn't of won any of her battles at all. plot armor is why she is alive, both of Diarmud's lance are scary as possible one negates all magic and the other causes unchangeable damage.

    Diarmuid isn't a budget Cu Chulainn.
    Because they aren't even in the same league. Diarmuid is blessed with magical back up from two masters and ends up being a mediocre servant in his grail war. The best he can settle for is being mid tier at best in that war and he's the third servant to die.
    Cu is sharing a contract with Kotomine AND Gilgamesh, meaning he's getting supplied far less mana than Diarmuid and consistently one of the greatest threats in his grail war. Only ones more dangerous than him are Herc and Gil and it takes Gilgamesh 12 hours while cornering him in a basement for him to die.
    I mean look at their respective skill sets and NPs. Cu is actually built to win fights while Diarmuid is designed for cucking masters.

      You are making a rather bad analogy, the fate zero Grail war had iskandar whose noble phantasm is an army of servants and an A+ ranked anti-army lightning chariot, Gilgamesh who was straight up the strongest heroic spirit, artoria under a better master than shirou, lancelot the strongest knight of the round table with madness enhancement and gilles who can summon devilish monsters and a tower sized monster, the fact that Diarmuid was doing well in such Grail war itself is impressive considering than if he fought most servants of stay night who Gilgamesh isn't part of and the masters are trash, he would probably have quite an easy time winning with kayneth as a master. So saying that diarmuid is bad because you find cu cooler is ridiculous especially when the author himself said cu would only get an advantage if they were to fight in Ireland

      @@knightofthelake8112 was partly joking about Diarmuid sucking. He isn't terrible or anything like that but the lack of a strong hax or active noble phantasm really fucks him over. This applies to Lancelot too.
      They're strong in direct fights but what happens when it isn't that? A fight between servants isn't always that simple and you generally want to have some way to pressure other than out.
      Herc has god hand and high end stats, Medusa has bellerophon and petrify (which fucks over most of Zero cast) and Cu has runes which lets him do almost anything, causality reversal and his spear throw (which explodes). Hell, they'd be in trouble against Sasaki Kojiro who does what they do but to bullshit levels along with Medea magic support and those fucking stairs.
      I'm not saying that Diarmuid is shit though. What I'm really saying is that Cu is very fucking bullshit and isn't included in too many main plots because he'd either be too useful for general purposes or cheese a dangerous fight.

      Fate stay night is just weird for these comparisons and is usually stuck between 2 extremes of power.
      You see it's either medusa under shinji whi has nowhere near enough speed or power to deal with any servant from fate zero bare assassin. Artoria under shirou who would get destroyed by everyone from fate zero except assassin, cu under a command spell to hold back who would yet again get destroyed by everyone except assassin from zero, medea is generally losing to everyone from fate zero anyway regardless of her master, emiya is almost countered by everyone from fate zero except assassin again, sasaki honestly can only beat diarmuid since he is a completely close range fighter by nature and everyone else would just outhax sasaki, and cursed arm is fodder to the fate zero cast.
      Either that or you have the other extreme which is herc under ilya (basically a grail) who is just broken and only ever lost a 1vs1 against gilgamesh otherwise you gotta jump him, medusa under sakura (another grail) which makes her mana and basic abilities sky rocket, saber under either rin or blackened under sakura makes her also OP beyond limit, or cu without restraints who can spam his np 7 times.
      Regardless it's not really a good comparison, and due to how bad the compatibility is with many servants in these 2 wars I would even say diarmuid who is far weaker than iskandar would still perform better than him against cu, medea and emiya due to his crazy speed, high magic resistance, anti healing and mana negating spears. Herc despite being stronger has no way of beating gilles. Medusa can easily beat iskandar despite being weaker because he doesn't have the mana check against her eyes. Sasaki could beat diarmuid and lancelot yet would most definitely get clowned on by hundred faces hassan.
      So yeah compatibility is very triumphant here and I would still say that diarmuid and cu are relative in Japan but with different skillset depending on the opponent (just look at diarmuid doing much better against saber than cu but would do nothing against gil while cu can hold up for 12 hours straight)

  • @demod2080
    @demod2080 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I've seen the memes, and I have to vehemently disagree. There may be similarities between the two in a purely aesthetic level, but Diarmuid and Cu are not even close to being fairly compared. One is a demigod that lived life on his own terms even when people treated him dirty; the other is a knight who is loyal to a fault to everyone who values him not at all. Their stories have depth and tragedy of different kinds. I don't know why people have the nerve to discount Diarmuid just show off Cu, as if he doesn't get more than enough credit as it stands.

  • @joenandez5880

    Lets be honest knowing diarmud he probably saw his master holding an injured sola and put 2 and 2 together thats why he turned to saber as his main point of hatred and betrayal because his master didnt betray him on purpose and he would definitely give up his life in exchange had his master asked and explained the situation since hes just that loyal. But to him saber was the main force that caused the situation so of course he would turn to her but what he gonna do in 10 seconds with a pierced heart and little to no mana considering the situation where both his masters are in ruins. So he just curses everyone and peaces out.

  • @LifenKnight

    Diarmuid master was literally disabled,
    and the writer wanted to kill them off 2 secs later anyways.
    so theres anti-cruelty reasons and plot reasons why he didn't kill his master.
    Though Cu literally kills his master saves Rin and Stabs shinji, only to scare him, he really should have done worst to shinji but he's a kid i guess.
    So yes Budget Cu.

  • @DaberuzJuega

    Yeah, I guess they don't know the true legends of Fate's servants. Diarmuid met his end because he was betrayed by Fionn and it wasn't just "I'm not gonna heal you", Fionn actually went for the water to heal him and dropped it on purpose... Three times! Meanwhile Diarmuid had his stomach open and guts all over the ground. In this HGW, he was also betrayed in the end by his master. So it makes sense his reaction would be "F*ck all of you!". In his legend (that is bigger than the whole Gráinne stuff) Diarmuid is actually super strong with godly weapons (spears and swords) and saved the Fianna multiple times xD

    In addition to the points you made, Cu has a passive skill called Battle Continuation that lets him hold himself together for longer than other people could; anything that's not immediately fatal can and will heal over time, and things that ARE immediately fatal are delayed if there's even the slightest chance. Diarmuid's body immediately began to destabilize, Cu probably had another couple minutes if he hadn't used up mana using a rune (as a non-caster) to take Kirei's body with him via fire. Also also, looking at his original myth; Diarmuid is actually part fae, and they do curses...differently. If he'd actually been alive at the start, and used the moment of his true death with that same curse? Whole different story, full of slow lingering miserable death.

    Furthermore, you're dunking on Cú for getting shafted and named the fight he had with Gilgamesh as one such proof of it while neglecting to mention that 1) Gilgamesh is one of the strongest Servants with access to nearly every weapon in existence, and 2) even accounting for that, Cú fought him off for hours before finally going down. Yeah, he gets shafted a lot, but the fight with Gilgamesh isn't really one of them since he went out like a badass while giving his opponent some trouble in response. I'd argue his fight against Cursed Arm in HF is more fitting to him getting shafted since he got KO'ed before he could fully use his NP to bear.
