This is something I have to take out of my system: Christopher Columbus is a VERY well made character in Fate/Grand Order.

His design is unique, his seiyuu is amazing, his performance gameplay-wise is quite good, and he manages to shine no matter the quality of the story. Every human trait he could be the embodiment of, he does it almost flawlessy.

Now, this doesn't mean he's someone we should love, like nor even feel something for that isn't disgust. And if we do, that's just us falling for his facade which, again, shows how well written this absolute bastard is.

In Agartha, a horrible story overall, he becomes our ray of sunshine during the first 3/4 of the story. He's the old rebel captain telling us to never give up and push through all the hardships, making the reveal that he's the worst of them, ready to kill and steal everything in sight, a fitting thing for his record as a "hero" despite being a genocider.

In Oniland, he got trick and ended up lost in a house of MIRRORS, which is hilarious when you think of all the stories in which he and other conquistadores scamed natives by trading GLASS beads with them. It was also a situation where his "never give up" trait shone, and we are again wondering if we should trust him or not. (Maybe I'm reading too far into this one but meh, worth poiting it out).

In Summer 3, he was scamming artists under the pretention of doing a fair trade, so we had to beat his ass. Again, good use of him.

In Fate/Grand Carnival and Summer 5, we see how his most positive trait mix with his hideous greed: In the first one, he's playing slots just to hit the jackpot, even if it lefts him bankrupt because he set his dream on hitting it, and will not stop no matter what until he does it. And in Summer 5, when we se a version of himself that couldn't reach his dream, he's... The same. Just because he couldn't archive his dream doesn't mean he gave up trying. It was just another example of how feral and determinated (obsessive) he could get to reach his dreams, the further away from them he is pushed.

And finally, his interlude. Probably one of the better written ones in the entire game. I'm not going to spoil this one because it really is THAT good and worth reading, but I do gonna say that every good and bad aspect of his character is explored, well used and detailed stablished without making him likeable.

Columbus' writting is consistent (hopefully it will in Summer 6) and does a great job portraying an irl villain that lots of people keeps thinking was a hero, even up to this day. He's a servant that only shows up in the Grand Order because it would be bad for bussiness if the Earth was destroyed, and while is ok (and encouraged) to hate him (because that's like, the whole point), I think is important to consider where does the strong feelings for a character come from.

Tl;dr: Columbus suck and I hate him but his FGO version is a fantastic fictional portrait of a historical figure.

a look through all the differnt things my american public schooling system had/is making us learn

2nd grade- american colonies, american revolution and civil war

3rd grade- american colonies, american revolution and civil war

4th grade- american colonies, american revolution and civil war

5th grade- american colonies, american revolution, civil war and oregon trail

6th grade- mesopotamia and basic facts about greeks. not much detail goes into either besides what you could find on the wikipedia article

7th grade- american colonies, american revolution, and the constitution

8th grade- the entirety of the american industrial revolution through modern day america. every class only made it to the 1950’s before the school year ended.

freshman- get to choose world history or ap human geography.

sophomore- no social studies class required. most take ap european history or psychology if they are picking a class. this year there is one ap euro class with about 17 students out of a school with a population of around 1300

junior- american history or ap american history

senior- american government or ap american government

ya know, this is probably why americans don’t know shit about literally anything other than america, and even then their viewpoint is filtered through the ideals of the past and not the reality’s of the present. we are not the freest nation in the world, but since america had the title in 1776 and we never learned different, people think that the title stands dispite literally leading the world in most citizens incarcerated per capita.
