Pff. Both, actually.
In the RP sense, it's pretty amazing, to see how much effort and thought you put into your replies -- I've usually managed to resist the temptation to get sucked into your threads when I come across them, when I was supposed to be tagging someone back, and brought them up in a background tab to come back to later. Usually. I find your characters to be very well portrayed. I really love being able to see a little more into the workings of another char's head; it gives a sense of depth and reality to them, and keeps them from coming off as flat... things. I admit to sometimes being hesitant to try tagging yours.... I end up wondering if my tag would be worth your attention, or questioning my own motives: would I be tagging because it's IC, or because I just want to be part of that awesome? And then a lot of the time, I end up not tagging anyway, because I don't feel I've come up with something worthy enough, if anything at all, and am content to just stalk your other threads instead, and enjoy those

I thought the Tsukihime heroines are OK. Better than a lot of other series, but they just didn't leave me with a lasting impression like Fate's, KnK's, or CANAAN's. (I definitely like Touko a lot better than Akiha) OTOH, I did like its male characters better. (Except for the Lancers and Zero!Rider. They'll always be awesome) Definitely prefer Shiki to Shirou.
Fate is the one who glossed over me, ngl. Oh I plan to torrent the KnK movies once my computer lives again, 8|; Aoko is the one that both Akiha and Rin are based off of though, iirc.
That's only the MC, though. In Tsuki, Shiki was like... the only guy. Arihiko was more part of the peanut gallery, and Roa, SHIKI, and Nero are like... all that there is, and you feel like they're just there to play villain. :|; Then Waracchia joined, but that's about it? I guess Nanaya and Merem too, hm. They were cool, I love SHIKI, and Waracchia's got his own league, but... it still feels weak. Fate's got AACHAA, Trolltomine, Lancer, Gil and KoGil, lol Shinji who I DO like, Issei, Berserker (YMMV?), Kojiro, TA, and Zouken. Sure quite a few bad dudes but that's already a huge jump, and I'm not even including FHA and Zero. So Fate wins out on that one for me.
Archer's pretty good if only for the deadpan snarker, but that really only brings the interesting male cast up to 5, compared to the Tsukihime cast, of which the only one I'm meh on is Arihiko. I forgot about Zero!Berzerker, though he didn't get really interesting until the very end.
Fate!Berserker was pretty boring to me, IMO, and even that one parting scene with Illya didn't make him interesting. It was a cute moment but it wouldn't inspire me to write a doujin. Though by contrast it made Illya more interesting, go fig.
I also prefer Jōji Nakata in his other role, Soren. Kirei is more of the For Teh Evuls type, Soren's actions are hideous but he has some pretty lofty goals which made him a more interesting villain to me.
Issei's just there and seems like he's little more than human scenery, and...I can't stand Shinji. :|
I...actually prefer Trollachia and Roa to Gil. Sorry. :(
Berserkers don't really have a choice in that matter, honestly. They're made to be crazy and more or less impossible to understand, e_e; Yeah, I agree that his final scene in UBW was cute, but that still does nothing to his character. We just know that he's fiercely loyal to Ilya
