Well, here is the poll where y'all get to choose which story sounds better and for me to write the next update for it. 

This poll will be opened for multiple days, so you can take your time to read the chapters and choose carefully — no need to rush

Steel Eyed Faker for me as I am just a sucker for EMIYA stories plus that one had an incredible premise that just spoke to me more.

Jerelly

For me I chose hound, I love archer but it would be interesting to have Cu as a protagonist, he personality by it self will be entertaining enough

Äsphëërä

I won't lie, High School of The Dead was boring as hell. I don't know how you're going to make it interesting.

Steve J

SEF for sure. I just love stories with EMIYA as the main protagonist

Toast

You're my go-to for any EMIYA fic. Cu can take a walk around the park

ZelretchTheTaoist

are you Paragon of Awesomeness on fanfiction.net ?

Both are an interesting premise. However from the style on how it’s written SEF seems more fleshed out so far. Another issue with highschool of the dead is because the author of the series died, there’s not really a lot of context and flavor in HSOTD. Half of it is ecchi. The premise is really cool with Cu being badass against zombies but there’s really no long term goal in HSOTD because it was never finished. Akame ga kill is much more flushed out in lore, worldbuilding and characters. There’s just more you can work with in SEF to expand out of the original story if you choose. EMIYA in general is also more interesting character wise than Cu. Cu likes fishing battling, and women. EMIYA is a bit more complex which is why he is so popular is SO many other crossovers. His motives are really easy to just plop him somewhere and he’ll do great because that’s just how his character works. Both are good premises but SEF is just better long term all around. Maybe write some plot bunnies if you really like Cu though? O7

Anthony Hemphill

Nah, he is Nim the Writer on FF. But A Fake Familiar was originally by PoA and was picked up by Nim

Nim the Writer

No, Paragon of Awesomeness helps out with beta reading and story building.

I would like a bit of change. So I went ”Hound". I like Archer fic, but Cu really deserve some love too

Kurogakuro

I think Steel Eyed Faker has better potential since the plot was finished, but Hound is better in my opinion. It mixes things up a bit main character wise, nice to have some variety and you already have some great Archer stories. HOTD is a dead end plot wise since it was never finished, however Nim's a great author and I'm sure he wont disappoint

Bookwyrm

I’ll admit, I liked SEF as a premise and the execution wasn’t half bad, but I am a sucker for stories that actually give some of the other servants sometime to shine.

Awkward Hevel

I choose SEF. I just don't really like Cu, he is not that interesting to me and I can't take him seriously for some reason, maybe if it was another servant. Also, AGK is more interesting than HOTD.

AtomicDuck7714

I'm going for HOTD lancer cu slaying zombies sounds like his kind of adventure

Ravioli Stromboli

Though after thinking about it, do this. Flip a coin. If it’s heads, write SEF. Tails, HOTD. If it lands on SEF and something is telling you that your not feeling it, then write HOTD. At the end of the day write what YOU want. I have full confidence in your writing skills that you can definitely expand on the original HSOTD plot. Cu can be a tough character to write character progression for however. I’m fine with reading whatever really. I’m just a bit bias :)

My vote is for SEF, this is really less of an Emiya vs. Cu and more of Akame ga kill vs. HOTD. HOTD isn't really that much of an interesting series in comparison to Akame and the zombie genre isn't really my thing. The only thing interesting thing I could see with HOTD is that the original never ended so you could play around with it a lot, like including Fate lore with dead apostles and such, it could turn into an interesting mystery story. One worry I have is I hope it does not turn into a multi with other zombie franchises.

Mattysc42

More Emiya? Yes please!

Alan

Would've been better if you switch archer with Lancer. I understand the whole hero thing with Archer, so having him delivering some justice is nice, but having Cu in modern Japan really is lackluster. Even if Cu deserves some R&R, he also deserves some life and death battles. He is a battle maniac. And while HOTD does have some very hot women. Zombies just ain't going to cut for fights. I feel liking Cu going up against a giant mech would've been awesome. Also stories where zombies have destroyed the world really don't have great endings or go on forever.(Looking at you The walking dead.) Cause of all that I chose Archer's story.

Pietro Deglie

I go for SEF, mostly because Akame ga kill is finished and I find zombie apocalypses boring. Though I would like a Lancer fanfic. Maybe do the AGK one with Both Mario Mario and Actually Satan. Cu Chulainn and EMIYA interactions are good civilization, as they actually get along quite well.

Story Maker (GameCrusher55)

I like both stories, but I feel like I lean to Steel Eyed Faker. I actually think that Shirou would work better in High School of the Dead, but is unfinished so there are a lot of plot holes. However I will say that after I read your Hound of the Dead I wanted to read it too, it’s really good and Shirou or Archer can’t be the protagonist all the time. Truthfully I think you should continue both though I feel High School of the Dead would benefit with it’s story and characters being in the Fate/Stay Night universe instead.
