When you think about it, Fate/Stay Night really has the perfect archetypal representation of every dimension of a hero. Archer is the embodiment of an idealized hero, always acting for the greater good and the sake of others-- and in the end, the world and his own dreams betrayed him. That's a sentiment found all over folklore, myth, and legend, and I don't think that's a coincidence. King Arthur. Siegfrued. Achilles. Karna. Almost every righteous hero in mythology is always betrayed for their good intent

I mean... that's how she wanted it. Like Spartan sex. You want it? Earn it. She was a darn warrior princess after all. And it was either help him do that, or Gunter would eventually be killed if the rue was up. Siegfried only ever felt grief for doing so, and gladly let himself die to make up for it. So yeah, he made a dishonorable choice to save a life, but lord it wasn't a back alley rape scene. It was a woman who would only allow her man to bed her if he could hold her down. I imagine she honestly just laid there like "When.....did you get this strong now?" It was a different time and age friend. (Also fake.)

Depends on which version you read. In the Völsunga, where the hero is called Sigurd, he burns himself while cooking Fafnir's heart for Regin, Fafnir's brother. The grease and blood on his fingers retained a fraction of the heart's magical powers, and so he gains the ability to speak to the birds, who tell him of how Regin plans to kill him and take the dragon's treasure all for himself, and he receives the gift of prophecy and wisdom after consuming the heart itself, which I believe Regin offered to take in lieu of gold. ... Come to think of it, there's a precedent for Siegfried to be summoned as a Berserker. If you interpret the story loosely enough, then the heart's 'wisdom' may have actually been a kind of madness that made him paranoid and greedy, at least temporarily, and cause him to _think_ he could hear the birds speak. After all, that power is only really brought up one time and Fafnir himself was originally a dwarf whose greed corrupted him into killing his father and later turned him into a dragon. Begs the question as to how eating the heart of a creature brought to the point of beastial mindlessness through sheer greed could impart wisdom An interesting premise, but I'm getting off topic... In the Nibelungenlied, where the hero is called Siegfried, it's mentioned that he became invulnerable after bathing in the blood of a dragon(supposedly Fafnir), but there is no mention of him gaining any other powers beyond this, nor him feasting on the heart of the dragon. In fact, the whole affair of the dragon is mentioned almost in passing, ironically by Hagen, who is the one that ultimately kills Siegfried. So yeah. There are some serious discrepancies. The Nibelungenlied, for example, has three recognized versions, with dozens of translations that have been made over the centuries.

I like how detailed you went, even mentioned how he got Balmung and his invicibility cloak, fun thing he also got it during the battle on Nibelungenland after killing a dwarf. But the thing is that Brunhild is NOT Brynhildr, they may share similarities, but at the end of the day they're different. There's also the thing that Siegfried didn't actually drink the blood of Fafnir, he only soaked on it which also gave him a dragon core like Arturia's. He's also from Xanten, Germany, not from the Netherlands. And his parents' name were Siegmund and Sieglinde.

Also hagen did not act for the honor of his king, but becasue he wanted to marry krimhilde originally.

The saddest thing is that the trailers made FA to be marketed as the ultimate battle between 2 Sabers. I really liked the part where Modred calls Siegfried Faker either in the trailer/intro. I just wish Saber of Black lived to the end of the show to fight off against the advertised Fake Saber battle. Oh and every time Saber shouted Faker I always assumed it meant that she believed the stereotypical "there is only room for one of us here" thingy. I assumed Apocrypha would be about servants killing their counterparts of the same class till the holy grail war ended up with one servant of each class... Alas, I was royally dissatisfied, pissed, and disappointed after learning that "Faker" actually meant Siegfried only existing through Sieg. Thus denying us viewers and Modred the Saber Vs Saber battle of the all of the Fate Nasuverse... Double Whoa Gundam! 😫😭😧🙅♂️

If true Siegfried fought Mordred though, she would lose rather fast. Even a projected Siegfried was able to nearly beat a Command Seal bolstered Mordred, and Sieg had no mana supply. True Siegfried's stats outclass her, his lore outclasses her, and he does triple damage to those of Dragon Blood, which Mordred inherited from Artoria. I love Mordred, but Siegfried is the guy on par with Karna, and this guy can only be hit by A rank attacks and higher which are subtracted by B rank, making even A rank attacks no better than E's, making the like's of Karna's spear only able to make small scratches on his body and same vice versa due to Karna's similar invulnerable ability.

This fight was Sieg vs Mordred, a pseudo Servant who is drastically weaker than Siegfried himself, Sieg stated such himself during his battle against Karna. And what are you talking about? Siegfried's swordsmanship is one stated to have 'Surpassed Mankind' and 'Able to match a thousand.' Mordred's feats in both Fate and actual Legend do not even touch Siegfried's. Mordred was not weakened, she was healed up and even bolstered by a command seal because her attacks couldn't breach this Sieg's 'Armor of Fafnir' noble Phantasm, something she herself states. Siegfried stomps Mordred any fight when on even terms. Mordred BARELY matched this shadow of the real Siegfried while being bolstered past her normal capabilities. Don't pay such close attention to strict stats anyway, Artoria outclassed Sasaki Kojirou in almost all stats, and she was outclassed by his sheer skill and couldn't even touch him. Skill being something Siegfried's legendary sword style that transcends humanity, being FAR greater than Mordred. She can't hurt him due to his Armor of Fafnir, he does almost triple damage against her since she has Dragon Blood and he has the Dragon Slayer trait, and he outclasses her in skill. So.... no buddy. Your waifu doesn't stand a chance, nor could she take on Karna.

Feels like you had some negative bias towards this one. I say this because 1: Your research isnt as good when compared to your previous episodes. 2: You leave out the various mentions of his great skill as a swords man which meant knowing his weakness does not translate into and easy win as he was never bested in combat(the dude killed giants, armies and a dragon before getting magic powers, i mean come on). Also, it would seem the Siegfried in this has blurry lines with his relation to Sigurd(who will be revealed in FGO later) in that they are both the same character due to their relation with fafnir, but are not due to the fact that they wield different weapons(which are conceptually the same) Gram and Balmung. I would say their relationship in fate is similar to that of Artoria and Arthur Prototype.

Sorry to ask, but were you salty about Karma fight when you did this video? Because it kinda seems like it and you also overlooked a few points, which is not usual for your videos. I really missed two obvious parallels which strike me as too glaring to not be mentioned. The first is How Balmung and Excalibur stories have some resemblance. Another Balmung origin, not mentioned in the video, say Odin himself stuck it in a tree from which every man tries to pull it, but fails. That is until Sigmung, Siegfried's father is able to pull it. It was still named Gram at this time, until it broke and was reforged into Balmung. This break/reforging could also explain the 2 sword in 1 theory. This is incredibly similar to Excalibur's origin, as not only it had the test of taking it out the stone/tree, but the sword from the stone also was broke and Arthur had to seek the Lady of the lake to get a new one. The second parallel in my mind is to a different character, Archer Emiya. I think Siegfried addition and how his story was interpreted was a shout out to the Hero dilemma which is a recurring theme in the series. Both of them lived long heroic lives, but found no fulfillness in it. This lead Siegfried to allow his original murder and then kill himself again in Apocrypha without any hesitation. While archer doesn't try suicide as normally as Siegfried, he goes back in time to kill himself, which sounds suicidal enough for me.

Nibelungenlied means the story of the Nibelung kings which plot is on the Land of Burgundy reign by a queen, Brunhild with his king, Gunther ...the hero of this story is Siegfried and the heroine is Kriemhild. Siegfried has also weakness like Achilles, Achilles is immortal and cannot be dead by anyone though there's a thing that her mother forget to anoint, which was is his heel and that ended him killed by Hector in the story of Iliad. Siegfried's weakness spot was his shoulder. Killed by a traitor, Kriemhild said the where the weakness spot is located. That killed Siegfried in the lake where his gonna drink some water to quench his thirst.

Fate portrays something wrong: the sword of Siegfried: Balmung. In the real song of the Nibelungen, the sword is called "Gram", whereas the sword of Sigurd (the norse hero from the Völsung saga) is called Balmung. Nasuverse mixed them up.

Your comment at the end made me realize something. The servants of black were really underwhelming other than vlad and chiron (maybe astolfo?). Red had mordred, karna, achilles... basically everyone except Shakespeare. Black would have lost in hours if it was strictly two sides against each other.

That doesn't even cut it. If vlad was Summoned in one of his 2 original class of lancer red vlad or berserker vlad and not the Romania ver of him, siegfried is the most strongest they had and the best chance for them to survive. The only reason chiron was able to be the only one to fight achilles is because he had divinity. Imagine of instead of siegfried, sigurd the king of warriors was Summoned. Mind you, sigurd is a demi God which means he has divinity and his sword gram was said to be the equal of excalibur.
