Crying Rules Actually

Leisure

Frequency: 1 episode/13d. Total Eps: 126

Welcome to Fate/moon archive, a critical deep dive into the worlds of Type-Moon!

Hosts Benn {Doomgender} Ends (they/she) and fen (fae/faer) start in the doujin circle days with Tsukihime, up to the internationally acclaimed Fate/stay night, and towards the modern era of Type-Moon with Fate/Grand Order. We work our way through (loosely) chronologically, playing, watching, and discussing in depth the themes, ideas, and execution of this long running series from a queer perspective. Each episode is supplemented by (loosely) related media ranging from manga, games, yuri, literature, and eroge, to preserve a diversity of lens through which to analyze our main subject.

As the podcast boasting the highest opinion of Tsukihime in the English-speaking world, our taste is impeccable, our guest hosts unimpeachable, and our suffering endless.

Join us, and one day, let’s meet in the digital sea.

Moon Archive 100: Seabed [Chapters 7 & 8]

Episode 100

Saturday, February 15, 2025 • Duration 03:14:15

each morning i wake up, do my morning exercises, and eat breakfast. each evening i eat dinner and lay down to sleep. i don't mind this simple routine. or, didn't. i had the time between to fill with work, chatting with friends, flirting with the nurse, and reading. but now... ever since i started reading her journal... i feel myself ever more trapped by routine. stifled by the world that has been constructed for me. lonely. i want to see them again. i want to see my cohost one last time. to say goodbye? to settle my feelings. to confirm that there's no way that i could be happy in a world that lacks their warmth, in a world that was so clearly created by their imagination that i can feel it in every hallway, in every tree, in every person i talk to, but that is lacking their presence even so. it's almost time to say goodbye, dear listener. but not quite yet. let us play in this world a little longer.

next time, we'll be covering the remainder of seabed. for yuri teatime we'll be doing the the 2023 visual novel lilja and natsuka: painting lies.

Moon Archive 93: Mahoutsukai no Yoru [Postgame]

Episode 93

Saturday, November 9, 2024 • Duration 04:06:05

once again the main writer is indisposed. i heard her chuckling not long before i found dead on her chair, with a little pop up that showed them failing a pain threshold challenge. they will be missed. anyway, what happened this episode? it's a little hard to remember, i woke up in alice's mansion and all i remember something about wrapping up the remainder of mahoyo. that must have been this episode. oh, and we cover the, quite good imo, manga walk to death.

next time, we’ll be covering mahoutsukai no hako, a manga featuring hibino and chikage of type-moon mascot fame. for yuri teatime we'll be doing la chinoise.

Moon Archive 92: Mahoutsukai no Yoru [Chapters 11-13]

Episode 92

Saturday, October 26, 2024 • Duration 04:51:41

sorry everyone who likes capital letters or well written descriptions. our main writer broke both arms tussling with a wild animal and so i'm back to writing the description this week. it's honestly amazing that she's able to prep for podcast with two broken arms, but she's made it somehow. back to this episode though, we get a final confrontation with touko and a lot of setup for mahoyo 2. it's... kind of a letdown tbh. at least we get to be excited about touhou for a while.

next time, we’ll be covering the rest of mahoyo; there's more world of ploys to experience, and two meatier postgame chapters. for yuri teatime we'll be covering shi ni aruki by ryoko.

Moon Archive 90: Mahoutsukai no Yoru [Chapters 6-8]

Episode 90

Saturday, September 28, 2024 • Duration 06:01:02

That's right, I'm back to writing the description this week. You can tell because I know how to use capital letters, unlike a certain fen. Anyway this week we're leaning hard into the romcom antics, and watching Aoko bite off a bit more than she can chew with the lifestyle domme thing..

Next time, we’ll be covering Mahoyo chapters 9 and 10, as well as both of the available EX chapters (World of Ploys 1+2) and chapter 8.5. We'll also be playing LEAVEs to cap off our Al|Together Jam coverage. Yay!

Moon Archive 89: Mahoutsukai no Yoru [Chapters 4 & 5]

Episode 89

Saturday, September 14, 2024 • Duration 05:03:59

sorry, dear listener for the quality of our episode descriptions recently. our main writer got trapped in a bottle at the end of this episode and i overheard a couple of witches debating what to do with them. hopefully she gets let out and we're able to podcast this weekend... but, in the meantime, we were barely able to get this episode recorded where we talk about things such as: was revue starlight ever good??? (yes) and will alice, aoko, and soujuurou all survive the night??? (the answer probably won't surprise you, but you might be delighted)

next time, we’ll be covering chapters 6 through 8 ex (but not 8.5, that's episode 91) of mahoyo, along with our second to last al|together game: may sky.

Today we're starting Mahotsukai no Yoru, the last proper vn type-moon made before tsukihime:re came out almost ten years later and proved that type-moon still has it.

Next time, we’ll be covering mahoyo chapters 4 and 5. For yuri teatime we're skipping al|together because we're covering revue starlight el dorado, fulfilling our quota of vns.

Moon Archive 87: Fate/ Prototype

Episode 87

Saturday, August 17, 2024 • Duration 02:24:35

Closing out a run of goofy spin off works, your intrepid hosts dive into the (extremely short) Fate/ Prototype OVA! A tiny peek into an alternate version of Fate/ stay night, where Saber was a boy, Lancer had a fur coat, and Kotomine was replaced by that top hat pervert from KNK 5.

Next time, we’ll be entering the era of The Witch on the Holy Night, otherwise known as Mahou Tsukai no Yoru, or Mahoyo. We're starting off with the first three chapters, including the Seven Days of Spinning side stories that unlock between chapters 1 and 2. For Yuri Teatime we'll be discussing the A Silent Voice (Koe no Katachi) anime film, as well as the visual novel Moonshine as part of our ongoing al|Together Jam coverage

Moon Archive 86: Take Moon & Carnival Phantasm

Episode 86

Saturday, August 3, 2024 • Duration 04:27:39

The festival is starting! This time your intrepid hosts are covering the manga Take-Moon and the anime adaptation Carnival Phantasm! Coming on the tail end of a lot of goofy spin offs, Carnival Phantasm is something of a tone setter for Type-Moon comedy going forward. Is that a good thing, or…? We also cover a cornucopia of Menhera VN Jam games, and even answer some emails that we’ve been punting for a while.

Next time, we’ll be covering the Fate/ Prototype OVA that was released as an extra episode for Carnival Phantasm. For the Al|together Jam, we’re covering The Letter, and for Yuri Teatime we’ve got Divine Despair Deviance, a Menhera Jam game we didn’t make it to this time.
