Fan art is dangerous

I'd seen her around a few times, but it was one of the random headers over on Brickmuppet's blog that made me ask who she was.

She's kind of an odd chick, with long purple hair, a black mini-dress and thigh boots with purple accents... and a rather ornate blindfold. That's not a common accessory outside of SM Hentai. The only other character I can think of with something like that is Fairymon/Kazemon from Digimon (Who always struck me as odd since her Japanese name had an English root and vice-versa).

Some time ago I found a batch torrent of Fate Stay Night and downloaded it, but didn't really get into it. Then the new series started up, and I started getting that too. It was kind of interesting trying to watch both in parallel and seeing events play out from two different points of view, like (Insert the title that Japanese movie whose name I forget of the same story played out from four different viewpoints). While poking around I saw another Fate batch, saw it had 25 episodes instead of the 24 I had, so I started pulling THAT in, and discovered it was yet another series.

That's a lot of stuff I've committed to watch over a purple-haired minor character, who isn't even in that third (actually second) series.

(BTW, another batch I'm stuck with is a full form of Mari & Gali that includes a long special, if anyone wants to help me make my ratio on that, it's from Wasurenai. (Fortunately I was able to drop the Wasurenai subs that I already had into the folder, force a recheck, and not have to pull down the whole thing.))

2 Thanks, I was thinking Kagemusha, but when I looked it up, I knew it was wrong.

3 Don't forget Carnival Phantasm (although I don't remember if Rider is in it).

4 I did not know about that, I'll have to look for it, or at least research.

Unfortunately the protagonist in the first series is the type I really hate, the moralistic pacifistic pollyanna who thinks they can win a war without fighting. I can already see there is going to be rules lawyering.

5 The anime encyclopedia gives a voice credit for Rider, so I guess she is.

And there are a few torrents available.
