HF, CCC and FGO have the same message

>Killing Dark Saber means growing up
>MC convince Nurse Sakura to go with him in the real world.
>He get his real body back and Sakura, symbolic of having a "Yamato Nadeshiko" type, the "idealised Japanese woman." is next to him for whatever reason
>Say goodbye to your servant, symbolic of letting go to Otaku trends and becoming a real adult
>accept boring world, move on and become a salary man so you can be happy
>get nympho wife so you can improve Japanese birthrate
>Stop being a filthy otaku that uses media for escapism
>Nintendo? Sega? PS2? Grow up, otaku
>it's time for you to grow up, get a job and then a big titty wife and stop with all this escapism UBW nonsense
>just get a big titty gf and get a job. it's that easy
>Shirou was finally taking his own selfish needs seriously, which is what any healthy human being needs
>HF final ending where literally the theme of the story actually comes together, about how the grail war was mistaken from the start and they needed to just let go of it, with Ilya tying together her character arc from the entire game about also putting her hatred aside and making peace with her family, when the other ending doesn't address shit and leaves you on a shitty note
>Grail wars? Servants? Masters? It was always a mistake
>the Yen is now almost as weak as the Turkish Lira
>Grow up and live the lifestyle of company loyalty, working long hours, prioritizing work over personal life
>Work Hard. Pay Taxes.

Nasu kinda hates Otaku and wants them to stop watching anime and live their lives, every writer that likes Nasu ends up copying his ideals. Which results in "Escapism isn't healthy, you should work a menial job and shut the fuck up, you aren't a hero, being a salaryman is the real heroism buddy".

Kiritsugu was trying to tell Shirou that the real Seigi no Mikata are working Japanese salarymen

>>285387644
Servants are always ephemeral existences that die and disappear at the end of the HGW. They only didn't disappear in FGO. This is what I mean by characters like olga/romani/marisbury/mash/lev etc being the heart of what FGO is, NOT the servants. Servants will come and go but people are forever.

However they've thrown a big spanner in the works by converting basically all the cast into servants.

The original spirit, yes. But you never get the original spirit, just a copy that doesn't remember other Grail Wars
>>
>>285388307
Volumes 6 and 8 were battles, volumes 7 and 9 were mostly preludes to battle and getting pieces in position.
Volume 10 is apparently going to be twice as long as any other, but yes, it's also going to have at least 4 fights going on simultaneously, and presumably another round of fights after that for the winners.
>>
>>285388339
El Cid should have more than battle continuation, instead a noble phantasm that allows him to participate in one battle even after his spirit core was destroyed.

>>285388307
some of them do, or have some long fights, a big thing to consider are all the perspective shifts as well, it's not just all in one location

volume 9 does setup a lot of major fights, and in the afterword narita said he previously had some conclusions to them, but rearranged things to start more stuff leaving the climax to the following volume 10

I think a lot of these can be wrapped up reasonably quickly, although the el melloi classroom, greater grail and egg stuff could end up rushed or a bit messy considering everything else that has to be considered, I'm half expecting a "just kidding, volume 11 will come out afterwards!" sort of thing to happen, he already did it once considering it was originally supposed to be just 5 volumes
>>
>>285388351
I doubt Narita would have finished things like this normally. He probably started feeling a little bit ashamed that he took so long when the anime entered production and FGO Part 2 entered its endgame without a Strange Fake collab. Richard even had to be added to the game prematurely.

>>285388459
Unfortunately, season length has been decreasing for a really long time. 2000s and shit you would have 50 ep series, then it was cut down to 24ish in around 2014 and now 2025ish a lot of anime only get 12-13 episode runs and that's it. I think that the FGO money guarantees we get at least 24 episodes, but I think 50 episodes is a dream that won't happen period.

UBW was pretty much 1:1 with the VN text, which was the goal by Director Miura, with retcons by Nasu (see Episode 3)

HF trimmed most of the story to fit into 3 movies

>>285388489
I really like the overall production quality and direction of this, but it does make me kind of sad they're rushing things a little, so we end up missing some details that give a little bit more texture to the events or explain things

for instance, I saw on some other threads some anime only anons confused about Jester's child like appearance and how Hansa didn't detect it, but that was better explained in the novel, that scene is also a bit longer and shows that Jester was a bit trickier, for instance he intentionally didn't actually kill people in the hotel so Hansa and his nuns would be distracted with the cleanup and all that

I also feel like kuroka tsubaki is weirdly absent in both this and whispers of dawn, maybe they'll do a whole episode dedicated to her or something? but I liked the way the novels handled it better returning to her every now and then foreshadowing things as the situation with her servant got progressively worse and worse for the denizens of the city

I guess that's why it's called an adaptation after all, this made me want to actually read the zero novels since I only watched the anime for that

The original dream adaption was Zero and HF. DEEN already adapted Fate/UBW.

And then it was Mahoyo, Tsukihime, FHA, Strange Fake, and Fate route with Unlimited Budget Works.

Nobody wanted Apocrypha or Last Encore.

Its not about being psycho, Gilgamesh wants people to be honest with themselves, to stop hiding behind excuses. Tine wants her land back, he tells her she could use his power to level the entire city and get rid of all the white people, she can't answer that, she's hiding behind excuses without realizing it, what does she really want. If you have the power to achieve it, then what do you really want, and don't feed him cheap excuses. Be honest, be bold, be selfish.

>>285389345
Refer back to his story in UBW
10 slaves, he had to get rid of one, but none of them were useless, all of them fulfilled their duty, therefore he killed none

He wants humans that truly live with purpose and fulfill their duty, people that live for a reason, not wastes of space that just exist. Which is exactly why he hated humanity in FSN, none of them lived for a reason in that era, they all merely existed and nothing more. None of them lived with purpose.

You see Gilgamesh generally with a better atitude in CCC and Babylonia because people in that era are living more "correctly". If you only judge humanity by the humans in the mooncell, everyone is fighting to live, no one is merely existing like a slob.

Multiple Artorias

There is like 20 different Arthur variations so they would all get their own Arthur. The one that gets the actual artoria wins.

I think requiem states you can only summon 4 versions of the same heroic spirit in one war

Multiple people can summon the same servant with the same spirit origin. It's a download of the og spirit to multiple bodies. So you each get your own instance.

you can't just hope and summon what you want without a catalyst, anon
shirou had avalon inside of him, that's why he got saber
you will get a servant that has the closest similarity to you without a catalyst, like medusa and sakura

>>285389660
Everyone gets Artoria or a close relative and one guy gets a random Hassan.

Weaker catalysts have a higher pool of heroic spirits, so it would be like rolling all 5*s on a ten roll of a gacha, technically possible but so low nobody would ever get it.

because nasu says "look....shirou just has to win there, shut up"
he really said that

>Gilgamesh [Servant]
>The Archer class Servant of the Fourth Holy Grail War. Though he was summoned by Tohsaka Tokiomi, he ended up deserting his master and re-contracting with Kotomine Kirei. He is the strongest character in both Fate/stay night and Fate/Zero.
>In the boy-meets-girl story of the original Fate/stay night he was forced to yield to the universal law of "love conquers all", but in Fate/Zero he's free to show off his overwhelming, cheat-like strength without restraint. He could have ended the war in a single night if he truly desired to do so. But then, careless pride is the king's prerogative, and getting serious over something as frivolous as a wish-granter would be unbecoming. So, taking that into account, it sort of balances out the huge disparity in firepower… I guess?

Shirou was always using the exact same sword, which while they shouldn't have history, clearly give him some kind of ability so maybe they naturally replicate the abilities of the future weilder or something. Whole thing is kind of just a don't think too hard about it though. Gil is fucking around and Shirou is at the peak of his life.

Gil holding Saber like that was hot. Why doesn’t do any of this with Ishtar?
>>
>>285389809
Lancelot was nerfed by Kariya and could only use his full power for a whopping 10 seconds. The fact that it would take Gil a whole night to clear the 4th rather than a few hours is likely all on him, considering how fast he dealt with Iskandar, took him like 5 minutes.

There is nothing saying it's only good for that. It's still a massive attack regardless. It's an Anti-Divine weapon, but there's no reason to believe it is ONLY good for killing primordial goddesses just because that's how it was used once.
>>
>>285389660
Let's assume they all have an infallibly Artoria-linked catalyst somehow. (I dunno, they all have fragments of her crown or something.) You'd get an Artoria in Saber, Lancer, Rider, Assassin, and Berserker classes. Artoria does not qualify for Caster or Archer, so those masters get to experience the unusual circumstance of a catalyst linking to another hero that's as similar to her as possible, or their catalysts are rejected entirely and they get personality matched.

Zero Lancelot cannot beat Gil normally, even the novel plainly states that despite the initial spook, all Gilgamesh needs to do is to wait for Kariya to kick the bucket. They say that outright.

The only reason Alcides and Enkidu are pulling off all the shit they doing in Strange Fake is because their Masters are actually competent. If these dudes were under Kariya they would have died on their first encounter. It's the same thing with others like Karna. The thing about Gilgamesh is how stupidly strong he is for such a low cost Servant.

The only time he kept up with her even for a moment was when he switched weapons with every swing of his arm, assaulting her with a continuous streak of noble phantasms, many of which were loaded with esoteric effects like passing through her armor like mist or freezing her limbs in its wake.
This doesn't apply to Shirou who just answers the same noble phantasm with the same noble phantasm. It doesn't matter what, nothing can overcome itself.

We don't know who was fighting Solomon. But we saw how fast Gil raped non Avalon Arturia and Iskandar. I say it's Lancelot that takes him that long because:
1. How long it tool for Cu in FSN.
2. Zero novel saying just waiting is a wincon for against Lancelot.

>The Master controlling Berserker already spent a huge amount of energy, while Caster was surrounded on all sides and even had his workshop destroyed. For these two groups, their lives would die out on their own.
>Matō Kariya... he had indeed believed this was a character that required especial attention. Not only did this person bear a strong hatred for Tokiomi, Berserker as his Servant also had the mysterious ability of being able to seize others' Noble Phantasms, considerably the arch-nemesis of Archer.
>But in consideration of threat level— Kariya and Berserker would definitely not be first in line.
>The Master and Mad Enhanced Servant, hastily prepared, that came forth to the war. They will probably be, of these five enemy groups, the quickest to be eradicated. There was not even need for use of some scheme; merely dragging out the battle into a protracted war would be enough.

>>285390228
>>Decide to just throw weapons at high speeds toward the opponent, not even using their special abilities
Its a habit he developed fighting Enkidu because he kept getting pressed and had to just pull something out in a rush, originally he pulled items out individually but it was too slow.

Against opponents he's serious about he'll usually pull out specific swords one at a time and beat them down with versatility or quality. Against Saber in Fate route and Altera in Extella he beat both of them down by pulling out individual weapons and using various effects to corner them, like poisoning Altera.

Says in old mat book that his sword spam is just his way to test if you're even worth fighting seriously. You gotta survive the bare minimum first
>>
Does the dog do anything?

Going with the anime as a Nasu-approved canon possibility, he almost managed a DKO due to Gil's arrogance, but beyond that, he had no chance at all. But Gil should not be proud of overcoming a wild beast.

Not really, but he would have defended against Gilgamesh better if he didn't worry about Illya's safety first and foremost. Gil does get genuinely a shit myself look in the anime when Heracles breaks Enkidu and was gonna tear him apart.

Let's assume Bazett and Cu replace Sigma and Watcher, I guess.
I can't just say "he sweeps". There's a few servants he'd crush (Hippolyta is hopeless), but with Gilgamesh, Enkidu, and Huwawa around there is no way he's able to just handle that. If Bazett is with him with Fragarach, with timing and strategy they could win it all, but it downright requires someone else to take out Enkidu.
Also, it would fuck up the Underworld arc majorly. Someone has to get Tsubaki to regret her wish, and that was Sigma in the main story. I can't see Cuchulainn striking any kind of blow against Death, he had a terrible relationship with the Morrigan.

Richard is a tossup depending on if the fight lasts long enough for him to get to A+ agility thanks to his dudesquad.
He'd wallop Dumas in a straight battle but if the clan can survive their first engagement with him it'd become a tossup and he'd probably be doomed in a third fight
Hassan wins every time
He'd beat Zealot but only because she's too dumb to just walk away
I don't think he can actually beat Jack assuming he doesn't just try to kill Flat
Hippolyta would be the saddest stomp in the history of grail wars
Prelati can throw him in a fake reality marble and walk away

>>285390836
They're not "stronger" as an absolute, but apparently each Strange Fake Servant cannot defeat one Stay Night servant, though which for which is unclear.
Like it's obvious that, say, Hippolyta can never possibly defeat Medusa or Cuchulainn due to sheer statistical failing. Or that Jack would be completely blown to dust by Artoria. Huwawa might be able to crush Heracles once or twice, but he would smash her to rubble thoroughly after that. But Enkidu has no weaknesses and Pale Rider is a wild card beyond calculation, yet apparently someone in the Fifth Grail War can beat them without fail.
And don't just say "Gilgamesh" for all of them, he specified Fifth Grail War.
I for one think Narita was talking nonsense and just trying to fanboy.

Yes. So a fresh new copy.
Like, if I fuck and impregnate loli jack in one HGW, then if some other HGW happens a decade down the line and another master summons loli jack, that loli jack won't come out as a single mother servant that got knocked up by a deadbeat master that one time right?

Maybe Archer Heracles, but definitely not Berserker Heracles
Its been so long that people here forgot that Berserker class actually gimped the shit out of Heracles

>Couldn't use any of his NPs
>Couldn't use his brain, which Nasu said is what made Heracles dangerous
It was a terrible class for him, because the Einzeberns were afraid of him thinking for himself too much

>Q: About Herakles who was summoned as Berserker, it seems like he can become Saber or Archer. If he had been summoned in a different class, which class would it be that he could demonstrate his true power the most?

>A: Surprisingly, it would be Archer. Archer is a ranger so it's a pretty comfortable class to someone like him who overcame many trials with knowledge and resourcefulness.

In nucanon, servants take back records back to the throne. So they can inconsistently trawl through old important memories to them. But it's like looking through the experiences of another person, kinda like reading a wiki article.

You would have wasted it when it was already harvested? Do you think that makes you a more moral person to dump it on the ground in front of them telling them "I shall not be part of this"? What's done is done at that point, they were already pretty dead.

People hate Gilgamesh so much they don't even understand FSF is meant to be a reversal of FSN. With Gilgamesh protecting his loli master and Heracles trying to kill her. All they see is "Why isn't Gilgamesh killing tine right now??? This makes no sense Gilgamesh hates kids????? FSN told me he hates all kids????????? It makes no sense?????".

Cool, that's not going to get through 200+ hero killing demons. It's not like Jack is going to politely gather up so he can get a really good AoE. It's a very straightforward move that targets a single enemy even though it explodes.

>Only Chaldea's system preserves memories between summonings
In UBW route Emiya talks about memories from various summoning being like books you could read at any time, but most people don't since its a hassle. This has been a thing literally since FSN, its just that no one reads shit.

Andersen says grail wars are like genre stories with different rules; no it isn't "just FGO is the exception", in Extra Tamamo remembers her previous master. In Prototype Arthur remembers his previous master as well. You see retaining memories in at least a few grail wars, it wasn't created by FGO.

The reason its a thing in FGO is mostly because you already saw their development in the other story, FGO is meant to carry on that development and show who they can become after that. Like Avicebron in LB1 remembering Apocrypha, regretting his choices, and deciding to make the other choice this time and prioritize his master, sacrificing himself to make the golem this time. Its only a meaningful choice because of what he chose in Apocrypha, its character development.

First off, using a spell of compelled honor against an honorless murderer is probably futile out of the gate. Second off, who's to say that would even do a thing against Jack? They're all Jack. It's one foe with many bodies. Can Ath nGabla even define that as not being "one on one"? Third: Flat would analyze, decode, and deactivate that rune magic even if it WAS setting Jack back in any way.

FGO summoning system is different from both the
Fuyuki system (something that almost if not all copies from it) and Alaya's Throne of Heroes.
It's basically their own personal Throne, which actually allows them to record even anomalies like the Jeanne Alter fanfic by Gilles, or Extra classes and Lostbelt Servants whom trigger Alaya so hard Chaldea has to go through the Ordeal Call.
Also Servants can grow stronger under the Chaldea system thanks to the Saint Graph reinforcement via feeding them ascension materials to get them as close as possible to their Heroic Spirit state.
Which does explain why Chaldea Servants are much stronger than typical Servants in a normal-ish Grail War.
>>
>>285388208
I still think Huwawa should've knocked Alcides out of the war when it destroyed the industrial district and taken his place as the volume 9/10 big bad monster.
>>
I'm confused. So how the fuck does the Throne of Heroes work?

1. It's a massive magical archive of humanity's finest heroes (and sometimes villains) that exists outside time and it lends templates of said heroes that can be copied and made clones from during a HGW

2. It's essentially magical valhalla that dispatches heroes as needed during a HGW and in-between HGWs, the heroes are just memory wiped and fully healed until they get summoned again in a new HGW.

What's the proper and more accurate interpretation here?
>>
>>285391233
For FGO it's to explain that it's specifically the same instance that gets resummoned and not a new instance with those memories downloaded. Because a servant instance can also share memories with LB servants and servants from singularities and also from other timeline (let's say theoretically FSF in this case) as the Throne is atemporal, but the one you summoned is NOT the same person as the one that you knew.

Furthermore, FGO also saves saint graph changes. So for example as in >>285391033
case you would get back that one and not a fresh copy.
>>
>>285391333
There's a difference between how heroic spirits and counter guardians are treated by the throne.
>>
>>285386808
since this is a fake holy grail war, would the holy grail artifact be fake as well? have we seen it yet?
or will the holy grail artifact be shown in the true war that comes from the excitement on the leylines from the fake war?
>>
>>285391333
It's 1. However, when those copies and clones are done with their business, their activities are sent back as a record for the hero to essentially read as if a book. The hero will then transtemporally update and remember the events IF it was something they care deeply about. Which is not often, most grail wars are just "I fought some guys" to most heroes. But sometimes more important stuff happens, like falling in love, or finding an answer to a burning question.

>Q: What kind of role does the World give to Heroic Spirits that aren't Guardians (Counter Guardians)? Also, what do magi call people with high divinity or are closer to the planet?

>A: Heroic Spirits that aren't Guardians are simply treated as traditions that lend power to the later people. Those that became closer to the planet don't mix well with people so they fall into the categories of Divine Spirits and Elementals.

Guardians are sent out like unpaid work horses and forced to constantly correct anomalies in the world and kill problems.
Pure heroic spirits pretty much get to chill out in the throne, receiving some occasional worship.
>>
>>285391333
throne of heroes is an archive of powerful warriors created by Alaya to be cloned and deployed as Counter Guardians as needed
the holy grail war is a human invented hack that exploits the throne of heroes and forcefully summons clones to resolve the crisis that the grail war represents, and forces them to compete in the grail war by binding them with command seals during the summoning process

francesca stopping/interrupting big fights like 2-3 times was pretty fucking lame all things considered, we're not even told wtf was the "deal" in that factory anyway, I guess Narita just bullshits through that because he didn't want important characters to lose quite yet or something, at least it was satisfying when Bazdilot beat the shit out her in this latest volume, and maybe in the 10th one she'll have a falling out with her servant form which may cause all sorts of chaos

>>285391333
Throne of heroes is a repository on Github. When you start an HGW you clone the servant and download an existing copy of all the records that the servant has into a fresh body which we call the servant container to your computer.

When the servant "dies", we upload all the records back to the repo. All existing instances of the servants receive a download to get a copy of that dead servant's records. The original servant is still in the github repository, they haven't left it at all.

Chaldea's system (as in, the gacha FGO), is like, what if instead of cloning a new copy of the servant and downloading the records from the website, we keep a backup on our computer instead? So when the servant dies, we can restore a backup of them with all of the changes from the folder I have on my computer instead of getting a new clone, so that they still have all their memories, instead of it stored like a book in a record. ie, we still have the original one and we haven't just cloned a new one.

They can also voluntarily be summoned to solve problems when the world asks for bigger guns. These are the rogue servants you keep finding in Grand Order, the world blindly panic-summoning heroes into singularities because it knows something is wrong but is completely blind to the actual problems. So it just expends all the leylines it can get a hold of and you get a random slew of heroes who really would appreciate a master.

>>
>>285391493
That's only really in FGO, because the grail believes there must always be a counter force. if the villain controls all the servants in a singularity, the grail goes "no", and shits out an equal number of good heroic spirits. The grail doesn't except unfair conditions for a war.
There have been a few times where a grail has decided the conditions for a war aren't equal and has intervened, like summoning a ruler.

Logically Saber would win because it is both "The Strongest Class" and "Her best Class", if not for the fact that Asassin Artoria is MHX who is minmaxxed to be Anti-Artoria, if not for the fact seeing MHXX (Her future self) being a Wagecuck would break her spirit.

here's a more fundamental question which I kinda struggle with

>heroes are all these crazy amazing beings
>said amazing beings are really strong and dense in magic
>summoning one is crazy work and takes a lot of mana
>so we make a ritual to use a dense leyline land to summon 7 of them
>and then kill them to fill the lesser cup so then later the greater one can work

but wait, like wtf? why even have this half step then? if the mana is already there in the leylines of the land, why not just fucking use it then? why go through the trouble of summoning great heroes, and killing them off to get the mana you used to summon them back in the first place?

this would be like if I'm really thirsty so I'll drink a bunch of water to piss a ton and then filter that piss so I can drink it again, like why not just drink the fucking water then? it makes no sense, although I'm sure there's plenty of "flowery" writing ways you could bullshit around to say the ritual is necessary I guess and I just grant/accept that so the story can happen, but it still feels a little silly on a fundamental premise level
>>
>>285392137
>if the mana is already there in the leylines of the land, why not just fucking use it then?
The Great Grail system is a part of the Third Magic, it works only on souls. It doesn't do a thing to natural mana from a leyline. The heroic spirits held in the Lesser Grail essentially make it "spin". And the power outputted is explicitly greater than the power inputted; it's a multiplier that defies conservation. Putting the mana in won't multiply anything, because again; the Third Magic only works on souls.
Magic is bullshit like that. Very specific rules.

>And the power outputted is explicitly greater than the power inputted; it's a multiplier that defies conservation.

Everything goes back to Tsuki.

Nasu: Although at first I didn't feel like turning stay night into a game. It was 2000. We'd just gotten back from Winter Comiket, where we'd sold Tsukihime. We went to Kamata and dined on curry. In between mouthfuls of food, Takeuchi told me, [Well Nasu-san, the next thing for us to make into a game and sell will be stay night.] That was something he'd been telling me for a while. At the time, I had no desire to go back and restructure something I'd already given up on, and Takeuchi's suggestion [You should turn Saber into a girl] made me wonder what the heck he was thinking. Shortly after that, I was headed back towards Chiba on an airplane from Narita airport, and I got to thinking about a new version of the story. I called Takeuchi on the phone and said [This might work. Let's give it a shot.] After that, I began to work on producing a different version of stay night.

Urobuchi: It had a different design orginally. The main character was a girl, and most of the Servants were male. The setup of the story was interesting, and I think it might have been received well.

Nasu: At the time, I wasn't thinking of making it into a game that'd be welcomed be female fans.

Takeuchi: If it's going to be a bishoujo game, it'll be difficult to release if the protagonist is a woman. So we started to discuss the idea of replacing the protagonist with a male.

Urobuchi: At the time, I was hearing amazing things about a doujin game called Tsukihime, and apparently it had some great-looking jacket art. It was a bishoujo game, and the demand for it was unheard of. As someone who works in the same field, I became interested in knowing Nasu-san. When he wanted to interview me, I graciously accepted.

It's also worth noting that if you are a servant fucker like I am sure at least half this thread is, you don't need to kill your servant to incarnate them or to make any worldly wish (also the servant will get their own wish). You only need to kill all the servants to reach the root.

And yet they'd be quickest to eradicate. Kariya was drained completely dry after a relatively short fight between Saber and Lancelot. Granted, it was Lancelot getting serious and pulling out Arondight to do battle, so he was pulling all of the mana he could from Kariya, but all it would take for Gilgamesh to force the same would be to take the kid gloves off like he was about to during their first meeting when he opened up the Gate of Babylon wider. Lancelot can only handle so many weapons at a time, so he'd need to push forward aggressively, which would likely seal Kariya's fate sooner rather than later. A little muscle, some goading, and a game of keepaway would be plenty to end Team Berserker. I imagine Lancelot would get frustrated pretty quickly and unwittingly kill Kariya within minutes.

Zero Lancelot cannot use Arondight against Gilgamesh because that version still had a lock on his other NPs as long as he used Arondight. Extella Link and FGO lifted that lock and he can use a swordbeam plus everything else at the same time but back then he couldn't.

Kariya's worms could apparently keep Knight of Owner Lancelot going for hours even if he died, but Arondight burned through all that in 10 seconds. He legit cannot win but is the one who would last the longest. He has the capability to withstand GoB because according to Materials, if Diarmuid listens to Kayneth and gimps Gil in a hit and run, Lancelot WILL beat him, and gimping Gil wouldn't do shit to GoB output, it would only like, gimp his mobility/close quarters defense and maybe lock Ea like it did for Excalibur.

No, the FSN crew is legitimately bullshit but mostly all held back in some way.
>Saber
Shit-tier master who can't support her and doesn't want her to fight. Under a good master she's got a lot of raw power to work with.
>Archer
Middling servant who isn't allowed to indulge in his specialty of fucking with everyone and scoring dishonorable kills. Rin is too good-natured to fully utilize him.
>Lancer
Bad master who actively nerfs him and only wants to use him as a scout and harassment tool. He has the tools to kill nearly every other servant in a straight fight, but ends up losing the element of surprise due to Kirei's nerf meaning he has to expose himself once before he can actually try.
>Rider
Shit-tier master who can't support her and throws her into dangerous situations despite that. Her eyes alone KO a ton of opponents and the Pegasus is no joke. Under Sakura she can go toe-to-toe with Saber Alter for a time despite how lopsided the matchup is.
>False Assassin
A masterful swordsman who is bound to one location and, by sheer luck, had his sword ruined in the first encounter with Saber. He beats a lot of "normal" combatants in feats of arms.
>True Assassin
He's crafty and his Noble Phantasm is no joke. He makes Zealot looks like a bull in a china shop with how much finesse he has by comparison. His main issue is that his master got jumped by the one guy who could actually really hurt him in the war.
>Caster
One of the best mages in history with magecraft close to Magic in application, but her desire to be Kuzuki's wife softened her and she made mistakes. She was the closest to operation at full capacity aside from True Assassin.

Illya made him extra retarded on purpose and it's easily his worst class he qualifies for, but God Hand alone means certain servants in FSF just can't beat him.
The full statement is that each FSN is a 10-0 matchup against at least one of the FSF servants though.

They're not gonna do an animal original route. They're just going to adapt part of the light novels, and wait a long ass time until Narita does the final volume. The one time we were going to have anime original route with Fate was with stuff like Tachie (original Mashu) for the DEEN anime, and even that got cut.

>>285392864
How so? Mage cosmology is pretty different. The feel of being a mage is very different aside from the concept of Ascension which maps onto reaching the root, but only superficially. There's no equivalent to a magic crest and the way mage bloodlines operate in WoD MTA. No Paradox in Fate either. At least not in the direct way it works in MTA. With Vampires, you could say that the 27 dead apostles are kinda like Antediluvians but again, they're really not. The concept of bloodlines and generations is basically nonexistent with Nasu's vampire stuff. And again the cosmology/metaphysics are completely different.

According to Narita, each Servant in FSF has one counterpart in FSN that they would lose to 10 out of 10 times. Under basically no circumstance would the FSF Servant win against their nemesis. It's a matter of fact he designed each of them with. So it's not that the Servants in FSN are stronger on the whole, but rather that each one of them poses a specific threat to at least one of the FSF Servants.
>>
>>285393013
So he's Emiya's 10-0 match up?
>>
>>285392986
Yeah, I was mostly talking superficial stuff like that, not saying it maps perfectly to it. Should have been more clear there.
Though speaking of the root, True Mages are essentially Oracles. The new Tsuki stuff also has ranks for DA to measure powerlevels. Though that might map better to Requiem's Blood Potency than Generation.
Like, it's different enough that I wouldn't call it a rip-off, but I wouldn't be surprised if Nasu took some inspiration from WoD stuff back in the 90's.

>>285393013

>>
>>285393101
While Gil won't go fully serious against a Fake, Archer is a Servant, not a human like Shirou. I feel Gil would take him the tiniest bit more seriously because of it.
>>
>>285393085
Enkidu is weak to things with the curse of death, they're the one thing that will hammer him because it works on a conceptual weakness, Gilgamesh and Enkidu both say as much.

Cu's Gay Bulge is a death curse. So, I'd guess that Cu is Enkidu's 10-0 matchup, one auto-hit from the NP and Enkidu is done.

>>
>>285393118
Alcides would canon lose to real Heracles, so real Heracles probably beats him.
>>
>>285393079
I can see that. Typemoon magecraft is kind of "anything goes" in the sense that we see mages whose methods draw from all sorts of real-life occult/mystical stuff and it tends to be pretty individualistic while still adhering to a broad cultural template. but of course it doesn't go as far as paradigms. There's also the secrecy and amorality although MTA mages usually have all sorts of mental gymnastics about that while Typemoon mages are charmingly upfront about it.
>>
>>285393171
LOL name one single thing Herakles has that can beat Alcides. Just 1. Reminder the Nemean Pelt outright blocks all Nine Lives except Bare Handed.
>>
>>285393207

Enkidu.
Literally.
Does not have a heart.
He is a mass of clay. He does not have vital organs.
A curse of death is means inflicting DEATH ITSELF. Gae Bolg is a curse of fate and a demonic weapon, but it is miles from a curse of death.

>>
>>285393118
Man, you people massively overrate that edgelord. He loses to anyone heroic with good Luck because it means fate will literally be on their side against him.

>>285393171
Alcides has his intellect, is super really strong, and has bunch of busted tools. Heracles is just a dumb brute in the Berserker Class. It's his worst class for a reason, anon.
>>
>>285393251
Nemean Lion Pelt gg. The only one that I can see MAYBE winning is Memedea AFTER Alcides RPs From Hell. Before that he has no weakness to Magic, so it's not even a 10/10 even in that case.
>>
Watching this anime I am reminded why I don't like strange fake
It reads like Narita's bad fanfiction
>>
>>285393127
He's still a faker who copies other people's tools and would dare put his hands on imitations of Gil's treasures. He'd think of him as a mongrel not worth his notice most of the time.
Being a Servant doesn't really make you not a fake in his eyes.
>>
Here's a better question, could Kuzuki buffed by Medea surprise kill any Strange Fake servant like he killed Medusa offscreen?
>>
>>285393298
Just like how Gil's high luck means he would snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
>>
>>285393285
Maybe Medea could cook up some bullshit hex that would still work through his Magic Resistance based on a conceptual basis.

Emiya.
AoB ≈ GoB in speed.
UBW >>> AoB in speed, Enkidu’s weapons have no special abilities so UBW is better in that way too, plus inside the reality marble Enkidu might not even be able to use his sword spam at all.

Could Alcides steal UBW?

>>285393331
All of the luck in the world won't save you from literally throwing away the win by ignoring every single sign telling you to watch your ass.
It took multiple people with specific means to actually "kill" him in Strange Fake.
>>
>>285393318
I didn't say Gil wouldn't see Archer as Fake. He literal calls him Faker when they meet each other in the Castle. I'm saying he'd take it at least 2% more seriously than he did against Shirou since Archer is still a servant, which could be trouble for Archer.

He's Herc Alter.
You have to understand what the alter servants are to understand Alcides.
On its barest level, you have to fundamentally change one thing about that servant's story in order to make an alter.
In the story of Heracles, he is fucked over completely by Hera. She drives him insane and in his madness he kills his family. He then accomplishes 12 labors as penance for his crime of killing his family, and Zeus offers him a place among the gods for it. He is treated as a monster by everyone on Earth but is loved dearly by his friends (mainly the Argonauts but not exclusively)
Alcides' """story""" is one where he NEVER forgives Hera for what she did to him. He NEVER excuses Zeus for letting that cunt destroy everything Herc loves. He still loves his friends as they never did him any wrong, and he absolutely can't tolerate how Herc himself ever chose to join the gods.
And so that's Alcides' ethic. He loves humanity and hates divinity. He hates Gods so severely that he never removes that towel from his face because he looks like Zeus.
Pic related is Alcides talking about his best friend, Jason.
>>

>>
>>285393354
That's a really weird question. I want to say yes and no.

Yes, it's his NP, so it should be something he can steal.
No, because it's a reality marble, an internal world made external. You can't really steal somebody's mindset and attitude, can you? And even if he can "steal" it, he can't use it because even Shirou himself couldn't use UBW after abandoning his ideal in HF, it's fundamentally incompatible with anybody other than the user. It's like trying to steal Ea from Gilgamesh, the very existence of Ea is "can only be owned and possessed by Gilgamesh" which is why Lancelot's Knight of Owner doesn't work on Ea. I have to think that it'd be the same outcome for UBW.

He could absolutely steal something projected FROM the reality marble, though.

>>285393409
Did you even read that before you wrote that?

>>
>>285393435
Strange fake takes place in a tsuki world, the “fate” (counter force helping people) you talk about has no sway
>>
Heracles is kind of a bit too perfect. Even as strong as Gilgamesh is, his Ego can fuck him over. Heracles is cunning, strong, fast, has plenty of dangerous tools, divinity, and is just all around great guy. Basically the perfect Hero. That's why the only you can right a story with him in it, and not have him just God stomp everything, is too massively nerf him, or significantly change his character. Which makes me ask, why even include him at all if you're just gonna disservice this badly?
>>
Alcides is so fucking boring. Grinds everything to a halt. People complain about El Melloi Scooby Doo class but at least they have personalities.
>>
>>285393466
No, it takes place in a blended world where vampires and the human order have equal strength. The fact that the Throne of Heroes and Heroic Spirits exist means that fate is at work as a tangible force.
>>
>>285393420
>which is why Lancelot's Knight of Owner doesn't work on Ea
That is never stated anywhere lmao. What doesn't work is UBW replicating Ea. That's from an interview that came from Fate Zero btw so if the same restriction applied to Knight of Owner they would have outright stated it. Also Alcides steals your Graph, he can deploy UBW just fine.
>>
>>285393477
he had a pretty bad temper even without Hera screwing him over

Because Fate has always been about subversion. Everything gets subverted and "the rules" are, at the best of times, misunderstood and are straight lies (to the characters in-world) at the worst. Herakles IS the biggest, most famous hero, which is exactly why Nasu subverted him into being a mid-boss and actual jobber at times in Stay Night.

The Nemean Lion Pelt has gaps and can't cover Alcides' entire body at once. He had to actively defend against Gilgamesh shooting at him with the Gate of Babylon.
More importantly, Excalibur isn't made by human civilization. It's a fae-forged weapon of the planet, which the Nemean Lion Pelt can't reject. It's like the weakest defense he could possibly put forward against it.
So I ask, what the fuck are you talking about if you don't even know the most basic points of the what Noble Phantasm does?

Because a lot of anime follows the rule that "jobbing is quality ingrained in some characters and no amount of power can save a character from their own jobbing".

That's an incredibly stupid idea. Berserker Herc literally doesn't have access to it (Illya seals it) and he was still almost unstoppable without Shirou's Caliburn bullshit. Melee with Alcides is going to fuck her, Invisible Air won't breach the pelt, and once Excalibur is out he has it.

The only way melee would be a stupider idea is if she did it against Saber Heracles.

Doesn't do it for me. At least not yet. Gil is too small, physically, and far too egotistical. Tine is too composed and too stable. She seems to respect him or at least understand how to play to his ego. What I liked about the Illya/Berserker pairing is how damaged both of them were. His devotion, her desperate, somewhat sad, attachment, and the inseparability of their bond. I do have some hope for this pair though. I like how he's trying to educate her, and I hope she becomes more of a wildcard who develops her own idiosyncratic values and goals, rather than working for that gay little native American thing.

>>285393723
Achilles indeed does seem to counter Alcides for the most part. He has no Divinity and no Divine Constructs that we know of so far, so he's forced to go for the heel or RP Akhilleus Kosmos if he wants to inflict any sort of damage at all. It's an uphill battle for Alcides for sure.

>>285393876
all the anime onlys think he summoned pinocchio
>>
>>285393882
Arash's regular arrows are supposed to hit with the force of a low ranked NP.
>>
>>285393886
technically Peter Pan entered public domain recently.
He could be a servant.
I bet his NP would be a reality marble of Neverland or some shit.
>>
>>285393848
Yeah I know he has Goddess of War but he doesn't use it like Hippolyta. I don't remember the sash ever mentioned being a Divine Construct.
>>
>>285393886
I know. He's supposed to go back to his desk and shit himself when he realizes that Assassin used his own hand to write the note
>>
>>285393907
I don't think it was either.
But it DID explicitly channel divinity through her body and through his bow.
>>
>>285393848
He skipped leg day.
>>
>>285393684
No I mean that's literally the official explanation they gave for how alters work after like ten years. You are calling Nasu himself a lie because it doesn't align with your idea of how it works

Whatever you value most, you have to betray on a core level

>Nemean Lion Pelt
I sleep.
>>
>>285393903
Wow, that's impressive. In fact, it sounds a lot like someone else I know, I think his name was Heracles.
>>
>>285393929
Wasn't it originally that Alters were different aspects of the heroes? Like Artoria Alter is the tyrant people thought Arthur was
>>
>>285393848
Having divinity doesn't automatically mean you can beat Achilles though given that he's still a hardcore hero who could keep fighting through sheer willpower and skill.
>in Apoc he beat Atalanta Alter
>in the Apoc collab event him and Chiron alone stalled 10+ servants who were buffed with divinity and the ability to use their np for a whole night
>in lb5 he stalled centaur Chiron and their superhuman nanomachine-buffed army after giving like two-third of his arsenal to his friends
He's like an anti-Herc in the sense that even when losing his stuffs he could still beat his enemies or fulfill his duty.
>>
>>285393958
They're like dark versions of the hero kinda, things that don't naturally exist. They aren't natural versions of a hero or else they would just be alt classes.
Saber values her kingship, her righteous idealistic way of leading, she betrays it by becoming a tyrant
>>
If Alcides has Marmyadose as one of thr King's Order NPs it's fucking over.
>>
>>285394006
He's an archer, he doesn't have his sword.

Achilles isn't even allowed to try and fight Zerk Herc in Chaldea because the staff knows he'll get brain damage.
In a CQC 1v1 duel he's not winning against the greatest CQC fighter to ever live.
>>
>>285394006
He can't use it. Marmyadose is a MMC. If he goes back to his Origin he'll likely cleanse himself into becoming Heracles again.
And he probably doesn't have it anyway, it wasn't part of the Labors, it was part of the Gigantomachia.
>>
>>285394184
Alcides =/= Herc
>>
>>285394223
MMC?
>>
>>285394238
Yes, Alcides actually has fine motor capabilities and access to his mind and skill. Which means he'll shit on Achilles even harder than zerk Herc could.
>>
>>285393285
I'd say Artoria. Enkidu's Enuma Elish reacts to attacks against the world, and Excalibur pretty much IS the world, so it'd be at its weakest. Whereas Gil's Enuma Elish is only slightly stronger than Excalibur, Enkidu's should end up much weaker.

Mythological Mystic Code.

>>285394282
What the fuck does that even mean?
Stop making weird jargon.
>>
>>285394316
I can't help you if you're a quaternary, anon
>>
>>285394006
He wouldn't. Marmyadose was given to him by Vulcan on a different adventure, it wasn't associated with the Twelve Labors that King's Order pulls from.
>>

She doesn't even have command spells. It's repeatedly noted that she's covered in "tattoos LIKE command spells", but never once in all 9 novels is what she's covered in called command spells.
>>
>Heracles gets transformed into Alcides
>Vol.9 happens, Heracles appears to Alcides in spirit form, talks shit, and implies he's doing something in the background to counteract Alcides
What the fuck kind of wank is this man

>>285388505
DEEN's Fate exists. Nothing can beat it atmospherically.
>>
>>285394358
She's such a semen demon, bros. Cannot resist her.

Guys, before the thread ends...
Any news on Redline?

His clay fuckboi bff is here, so he's in a very good mood.

That without Nobunaga was basically the plot of the Glasses Event in FGO if i remember right.

>Monster of the week steals all powers and NPs used in the singularities.
>The heroic servants basically do non-violent games of intellect to manifest the grail instead of a war.
>Throws Nobukatsu to nerf the MoW when it stupidly copies the NP and then kill it to solve the Singularity.
