what a conceited little brathow can one be so strong yet so small at the same time omgno explanation needed herewithout exception i find it the cutest thing when characters fantasize about a future with their crush
i love it when two shitheads get togetherthey literally bring out the best in each other. case and point: Wangji is no longer a tsundere
i don't care that Elaine is a loli when technically she's the predator here
gil is v relatable in that he only has one friendboys who wear short shorts together stay togetherthey really bring out the worst in each other
all gils are not made equally. yet, within that statement lays the true appeal of this man; the variety of roles he plays adds dimensionality to his character, and together they piece together the delicately balanced entity that is gilgamesh
Fate/Zero
8/10 : his wardrobe (shiny armor, snake pants, naked) is outstanding here, but his personality feels a little lukewarm, not quite evil nor nice. like, when’s he’s giving his spiel about desire, i gave zero shits, but i was also having a really good time looking at him. i can appreciate fz gil as an extension since, like everything else in fz, this doesn't really add anything to his character that we didn't already know. also, he should consider fixing his diet (children and wine). in conclusion, fz gil’s aesthetic makes up for his almost stagnant personality.
Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works
10/10 : full out evil gil is great. he's reincarnated in a bad mood so duh genocide is the way to go. this is my favorite of his deaths; it was really great seeing his outrage when he was forced to admit he was wrong about shirou, and his va really drove that home. still, it was such a shame his favorite biker outfit got ruined, and i can only really appreciate this gil knowing that he’s only like this bc he’s woken up feeling rlly disrespected and pissed.
Fate/Stay Night: Heaven's Feel
10/10 : as usual, despite the rest of the adaption being rushed, the anime staff clearly put a lot of love and care into the gil dying scene. his heaven's feel death parallels to his ubw death because, while both were caused by a lack of caution on his part, in the former he goes out with resignation towards his fate as opposed to his outrage and defiance in the latter. i love his look of "oh shit i fucked up" when he realized sakura had gotten stronger than he had thought. gil has like four scenes total here, but each one was perfect. also, i can’t imagine the core strength this man must have to pull himself up with only one leg. gil was quite literally a snack here
Fate/Stay Night
9/10 : gil took a firm stance in the fate waifu wars here for sure, but cuckoldry isn’t the best look smh. on the other hand, this first death was super impactful, giving the viewer an initial view into how gil views death. the way he accepted his defeat graciously serves as a foil to his other two fsn deaths: beyond the usual “adding depth”, it ensures he isn’t mistaken for a classic foil villain (like shinji lol). nevertheless, his jacket was crustier than izaya's. i love gil's shit fashion sense in concept but not in practice. also, enuma elish’s old design/animation is really subpar
Fate/Kaleid
10/10 : i'm very conflicted cuz gil-kun’s a mix of kid gil and adult gil, but maybe that's a good thing. as well as being adorable, kid gil is an overall superior being, with the same values as adult gil but with a much nicer personality; on the other hand, adult gil is hot precisely because of his asshole personality. the combo still feels illegal tho. i was very confused on how to feel when gil-kun said mongrel
Fate/Grand Order: Babylonia
9/10 : casgil was great both as a standalone character and as a foil to archer gil. he clearly has grown as a person and as a king: his willingness to reflect upon the past and feel regret, his eagerness to mingle with other people, and his subjects' decision to stay by his side truly show this, even though his personality mostly has remained the same. without this side of gil, as shown here and in CCC, he wouldn’t be able to be my favorite character. his charisma was admirable, especially in his last stand against tiamat. plus, casgil actually has fashion sense and yet again carries the fanservice in his show. imo more male characters should have cool outfits like his. however, while casgil’s existence allows archer gil to be a 10/10 character, he himself just doesn’t have the same appeal (which is precisely the point of his character). in the end, it's nice to contrast how his ideology has changed from what we see in the meeting of kings episode of fz--he has become almost everything he made fun of saber for there (although to a lesser extent with respect to the extremes saber set herself to).
Fate/Strange Fake
9/10 : i'm so done with how much of an idiot this man is–he had it coming here. besides that, he truly was epic here, and dumbass happy gil is the best gil. plus his interactions with enkidu added a lot to his character. i love how they really balance each other out–-gil becomes a better person and enkidu becomes worse. i also love how he instantly went from brooding fate/zero gil to dumbass fate/extra ccc gil the second he realized his bestie was there
Fate/Hollow Ataraxia
8/10 : so many highs. a new low. that outfit was abominable, but kid gil being a savage and full power gil can somewhat balance that out. also, idk but it’s just so fitting that he's good with children. regardless of how enjoyable all that was, gil has committed a lot of atrocities, but that outfit is by far his worst offense
Fate/Extra CCC
9/10 : gil's in a better mood this time around cuz he thinks the mooncell is neat. he spends a bit too much time being an idiot, but nice, idiot happy gil is probably best gil as always. indeed, he has AUO castoff and the best ending in CCC. also, it's kinda impossible to really like gil without CCC since it provides an analysis and extension to his character. while young gil and his values are captivating, at the end of the day we have to acknowledge that he was wrong and wasted half of his life chasing his empty ideals. this is exactly what we see in fgo babylonia—casgil simultaneously admires and admonishes his younger self

Ah, so you consider it self-love. Wait the only manga you read is One Piece. O_O
It makes sense now. You don't socialise much these days, do you?
edt: Did people compliment you a lot when you were younger?
