>>4087624I'm probably getting ahead of myself, since I don't know if this thread will hold for 2 months (which is honestly likely, since the next GudaGuda didn't generate all that much interest two years ago, and probably won't generate much more now, and Christmas won't have any new Gacha Servant, just the Mini Martha welfare), but I opened with the Koyans in hope of getting them once the year turns (a little longer for Konyaya of Light's second Banner, but still).Either way.News:>Shimosa manga is finally back!!!!And I literally can't think of anything else of significance. . . as per usual.
>>4087626And here are the PVs for the next few Events:GudaGuda - https://youtu.be/haVzMM5iNpo?feature=shared(Christmas didn't get a PV)Tunguska Sanctuary teaser - https://youtu.be/8RzpB-w2xfI?feature=sharedTunguska Sanctuary - https://youtu.be/2Z8DAE2-YPA?feature=shared
>>4087624>>4087626>>4087627Gudako x Vitch is one of my favorite pairings
>>4087880I may have a preference for gudako being the top, but I'll admit servants fighting over her IS a nice thing.So long as it results in the girl's all fucking, anyways, broken hearts are a no-go.
Aah, Morgan lostbell is too long, they already give me the grial but still going
Does anyone have the Gudako and Mash color illustration from vol.5 of the Salem manga? They look so cute in it. Salem is probably the gayest we'll ever see a non Riyo Gudako be.
>>4087967
>>4087969
>>4087970
>>4087971
>>4087972
>>4087961Is it something that comes with the manga?Because the pic related is the only color page my V5 has.
On another note:Oh look, a new Nightingale x Salter Lancer image in 2023.>>4087880Now that's a combination we don't see everyday.I wonder why Morgan is being so passive about it tho... but come to think of it, I get the feeling that her summer version just is more passive/reserved like that (but well, will have to wait 1 year and some months to know for sure).>>4087897>So long as it results in the girl's all fucking, anyways, broken hearts are a no-go.You can say that again.>>4087931Are you not enjoying it?>>4087974It's been a while, glad to finally see art of them together.
>>4087988The only place I saw it was on the author's tweet about it https://twitter.com/irumo/status/1514913684598169601/photo/1Gudako and Mash look so cute in their outfits. I'll see if I can find the volume on bookwalker.jp
>>4088043It really is a great illustration, a shame that CDJapan (where I import my mangas) doesn't have any bonus (tho the others aren't nearly as great)...By the way, does that "bookwalker" site get mangas from other stores? Because Google Translate says it's one of those "each store gets a different bonus" bullshit, and the Gudako and Mashu one is from Toranoana.
>>4088059Bookwalker usually comes with all the bonuses that other shops have since its electronic. All the bonuses are usually if you buy the physical edition. I could be wrong but I think that's why you get the bonuses. https://bookwalker.jp/de25776f94-a956-4e6d-920b-b7027f7f7b7c/
>>4088110Well, if you do buy it, let me know if it came with all bonuses, because if it does, I may give that site a try.(if it's physical copies with all bonuses, of course)>All the bonuses are usually if you buy the physical edition."usually" what?
>>4088169By that I mean sites usually sell the bonuses eith the physical copies. Bookwalker is digital do I think they add the bonuses with digital purchases. I'm not sure if all manga fo it

>>4088398This is cute. I love Gudako x Morgan
>>4088433Only the very best for Lady Morgan.
>>4088036>>4088228
Forgot you have to clear Heian-kyo for next event. How possible is it if I’m still on Atlantis?I assume I’ll have to just skip VN parts and read later.
>>4089933Either SKIP the story, or just start the event late. Event will be time-locked for the 1st week anyways, so being tardy isn't the end of the world.
>>4089933If YouTube videos that skip the fights are anything to go by:>Atlantis have around 12~13 hours>Olympus have around 15~16 hours>Heian-Kyo around 10 hoursWhich is quite some reading, personally, I'd say skip and read later, but if you think you have enough time...>>4090003Maybe I'm too much of a slow reader, but even committing to start the Event a week late, I feel some degree of skipping would still be necessary.
>>4090063With Heian-Kyo I'd argue unless you're invested in the characters you can skip a lot of the reading. Not much really impacts the overall story so you don't have to be focus too much on the story. Then again outside of Sei and Avenger Ushi the servants they use also aren't some of my favorites so it's easier for me to skip things than some others.
>>4090104True. Tho personally, I certainly find Heian-Kyo more enjoyable than Atlantis and Olympus (which the second was only cool in the climax and the first was a chore throughout), and in addition to Switch-chan and Contrarian!Yoshitsune, I actually like most of the japanese Servants (to the point of complaining from time to time how we still don't have all the Shitenno, despite being completely board irrelevant), and Ibuki left quite a strong first impression (and honestly, I even like Douman. My only complaint with Heian-Kyo, which I already stated back when it released, is how they made that cool CG with Douman and the gods he summons, but then don't let us fight the gods themselves, but possessed Servants instead...).
>>4090250Gasp! Another artist that likes Molay?! Naisu.Oh no, they like "Injured Gudako" as well, and apparently like to draw her with an eyepatch.
>>4090250Also that particular image is adorable.Forgot to say that because of the shock.
>>4090250I've never seem this one before. Thanks for sharing it. I'm so happy this pairing is getting more love around here.
I want her so bad. She looks so cool
>>4090593Her outfit makes her look like a mook from Nioh.
>>4092071
>>4092071>>4092163Thank you. It's always nice to see more Gudako x Morgan.
>>4092229
Got her on the third ticket I spent. Saw a rainbow followed by a Caster card and there she was.
>>4092911
Finally finished Atlantis and started Olympus. Every battle now is like a boss battle. Not sure if I’ll finish Heian-kyo before the event ends.At least it seems battles are decently spaced out. And Heian-kyo is half the length.Why can’t they just do what most mobile games do now and give a warning box saying “this event contains main story spoilers, are you sure you want to continue?” for people who are procrastinating on main story and don’t care about spoilers
I hate so much when 4chan doesn't let me post on my PC...>>4092233Congrats~I only had enough SQs to do 11 Summons, and with those 10 tickets from the special login bonus I can try some more, but will wait until I finish the story.>>4092621Praise the Pocky Day.>>4092877>Do not save the pictureKek. Artists sometimes...>>4093112Oh~ A rare Gudako x Ishtar.>Finally finished Atlantis and started Olympus.Otsukare~>Not sure if I’ll finish Heian-kyo before the event ends.Then I'll once again recommend to skip the story bits for now, because due to the pathetic state the game is nowadays, the current GUDAGUDA has yet to have a rerun, and considering current practices, it's unlikely to ever get one (you'll eventually be able to get Ranmaru through the "Evocation Festival", but see the story is now or never, most likely, unless you're up to just watch it on YouTube).>Why can’t they just do what most mobile games do now and give a warning box saying “this event contains main story spoilers, are you sure you want to continue?”Didn't know other games did that.But then again, it's no news that this game is far behind others in many aspects.
>>4093112I always felt like everything should be unlocked by LB1. Considering the servants we meet aren't the same servants when we summon them I never understood why some things are story locked. The only thing that would be any form of a spoiler would be Sion, and that wouldn't matter since we meet her before LB1. I remember missing some events in part 1 just to play them during their rerun and realize there's really nothing worth keeping story locked.
Is Ranmaru another D'eon situation? I saw their profile and it says Ranmaru is a son, but their gender is unknown. I haven't started the event yet so I just wanted to know
(now I can post on my PC again)>>4093379To be fair, just because the Chaldea versions aren't the same as the story ones, their existence can still be considered spoiler (meaningless in a gacha game, but still), Contrarian!Yoshitsune and Ibuki for example, seeing them anywhere else before their debut story """could""" lessen the impact of said debut, or mentioning Douman summoning a Tree of Emptiness.That said:>and realize there's really nothing worth keeping story locked.This is normally the case. Heian-Kyo itself is locked behind Olympus, and that's only because Danzou compares Ibuki with the Olympian Gods (and because Douman is finally defeated I guess).>>4093422See the comments here:https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/4926014for reference, or just read the last one if you don't want to read all of them (tho they are disappointingly funny, so I recommend) and draw your own conclusion.The answer is: No. She's just another genderbent character with "unknown gender" as a Servantverse joke as a "bonus" (read: excuse)
>>4093439Well to be fair Ranmaru has the “Feminine Looking” trait instead of “Female” that D’Eon and Astolfo have. But Kiichi Hougen and Kagekiyo also have it
>>4093649>instead of “Female” that D’Eon and Astolfo have.They don't have it anymore nowadays. Somewhere along the way (probably when the "Feminine Looking" trait was created, or maybe "Female" trait was updated to it), they got the "Gender: Unknown" + "Trait: Feminine Looking" combo.Others with this combo are:>Maou Nobu>Summer Majin-chan>Wandjina>Dioscuri (or however it's written)>Caenis (both, obviously)>Enkidu>Kashin Koji>and our newly introduced Sugitani Zenjubo (>>4090593)Reason range from joke (Ranmaru) to lore related (Caenis), but yeah, will keep considering Ranmaru's case to be just a joke (unfunny, but a joke nonetheless).
>>4093702
>>4093804If I can take a guess Maou Nobu because ascension 2 is a maleSummer Majin because while Majin is female Rengoku can be considered either male or without genderWandjina is an alienDoscuri because the twins are both male and female fighting as one Caenis because of lore reasons. Considering the story of Caenis I'd just call her a womanEnkidu because they are not humanKoji is the same as EnkiduSugitani iirc is a male but was summoned with a female body.My question is why isn't Da Vinci on this list. Da Vinci has been called both genders in the game and aren't they technically a guy using a females body? It's been awhile since I've used Da Vinci so I don't remember if they explain this away.
>>409385695 points. Rengoku's gender is obviously "Sword".>SugitaniI didn't actually knew the reason for this one, since I usually avoid spoilers, so that's what it is, huh.>DaVinciI don't think using Da Vinci to fight or not matters, but all I can say is "who knows?", I also don't remember any explanation.The most I could say, going by my pessimism, is that someone of the production side back in Arc1 shipped Da Vinci with Romani, and used their authority to have her as "Female" instead of "Gender Unknown", which by the end didn't matter because the romance they hoped never happened, fortunately, but yeah, sounds like conspiracy, so an "oversight" seems much more likely.
There's a space in Kiyomizudera Temple that's completely dark except for a light that illuminates a power stone halfway down. You have to follow a guide rope to get from one end to the other and it's supposed to represent the womb of a female bodhisattva. It's probably the only way to experience Heaven's Hole for yourself.
Poor little master
>>4095476This little bit of trivia was not something I expected to see today.
Is Ranmaru any good? I can't bring myself to do mission clearing events. They really should do away with them. Or they could at least make it 40 or 50 missions tops.
>>4095476Are you shitting me this is a thing that is available and i found out 2 months after being in Japan????Fuuuuuuuuck
>>4095941No wait, it gets "better", after Anon made that post, I did a quick search, and if this video that sounds like a school report is anything to go by:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1-JYZBs4UMThere were at least 3 other temples were you could have experienced that.>>4095582Since I never worried about the usefulness of any Servant, I unfortunately can't help you. But if you have any other AoE Avenger, I doubt you would have much need for her.
>>4095547Still hate this design for beast nero.
>>4097681What about her Servant version?
>>4097704Mobile version is infinitely better.
So, Event's over.Does anyone here have any thoughts about it?>Did you like it?>Were you too annoyed by Sakamoto's backstory to care?>Were you put off by Ranmaru's gender """""ambiguity"""""?Me? I have 2 thoughts:"If the game were to acknowledge that I have Ibuki, I wonder how the Event's story would have to change to accommodate her and her overwhelming power"; and"Since Atlus will never make a new 'Kuzunoha Raidou' (or similar) game, and Sakamoto pretty much already created the habit of opening a Detective Agency whenever he can, I wish FGO could have a spin-off game in the likes of the Raidou games (where Gudako goes out to investigate stuff, and uses different Servants to gain information in different ways, like some are better for interrogation and/or intimidation, others are better for stealth, listening on suspects from the shadows or gathering evidence, etc)..."Yes, I understand that nothing I said has any level of board relevance, but please bear with me, I don't want to go to /v/ or /vg/ for this, even if no one here has any interest in what I said (in which case just ignore this post and let's wait to see if Martha's Xmas Event will be more interesting).
>>4100687>Does anyone here have any thoughts about it?It was fine, decent enough story. But Ranmaru was superfluous and did not need to be there and for the Welfare, that's dissapointing.
>>4100687It was a mission progression clearing event so I skipped it completely. If we got a standalone Oryou servant I mightve played it
>>4100973Can't argue with that, as she kinda was just there because of Nobu's head (making her lose her memory regarding her objective of retrieving the head and the Servantverse injection were also some weird decisions in my opinion).>>4101001>If we got a standalone Oryou servant I mightve played itUnfortunately, that's never happening.Unlike Anne and Mary or Pollux and Castor who are different Servants being summoned together, Oryou-san is Sakamoto's NP, tied to him through their backstory, the only way we could get her on her own, would be by getting an Event were Gudako helps her instead of Sakamoto, and we all know the devs would never do it.
>>4101190Shame since they are missing out on a lot of potential. Oryou is so cute and has such a unique personality
Any headcanons for these Gudako ships?>Gudako x Huyan Zhou>Gudako x Trung Sisters >Gudako x Sen no Rikyu>Gudako x Saber Medusa>Gudako x Iyo
>>4095547Hakunon had a corny design but she canonically had segs with this two
>>4102205I ship Gudako with Huyan. I haven't seen much of her but I love her design. Weirdly enough everyone seems to draw fanart of Huyan with Pumpkin Gudako
>>4102247
>>4102250
>>4102256
>>4102263
>>4102269
>>4102270
>>4101963Can't say I like that image...But have anyone else done Oei's new Interlude? Yang has really taken a liking to BB and the Foreigner gathering was pretty nice despite Voyager being there as well.The actual story was also nice, but I wish there was a [Grab hand and go] option instead of Gudako just running off and forcing Oei to run after her...>>4102070Really... Lasagna truly are masters when it comes to wasting potential.>>4102205What do you mean?If you mean "Anyone ships these ships?", as you can see, some ship Gudako with Huyan Zhuo/Koen Shaku, and so do I, and personally, I've been preparing myself to ship her with Iyo since Himiko's Event (and of course, I also ship them with Himiko herself).Now, Trung Sisters were forgotten as soon as their Event ended, so I can't say much until I see said Event myself; Sen no Rikyu is in a similar boat; And Saber Medusa seems to have her own Sakura, which probably prevents people to even think about her with Gudako, but who knows.And if you mean something else, I'll have to ask you to elaborate.
>>4102294>>4102263You could have posted the 1st page as well.
>>4102295I was mostly trying to keep it to just the images with Pumpkin Gudako and her
>>4102319Naruho-!!That image, I assume it's fairly new since SauceNAO can't find it but, is that the only Gudako x Morgan from that artist, or is there more?(still want more Gudako x S.Ishtar as well, but commissioning them will probably be the only way...)
>>4102374
>>4102374It's crazy how little they have considering she's the only Rinface to out right tell Gudako she likes her. As much as I love her I feel like Eresh has overshadowed Ishtar when it comes to being shipped with Gudako
>>4102429
>>4102430
>>4102429No kidding... it would be one thing if Gudako x Eresh art were still coming out regularly (not that being overshadowed by a Servant 2 years older isn't bad in it's own way), but we don't get many of those nowadays either, do we?
>>4102474That's because every female servant got overshadowed by Castoria. If we get yuri art of Gudako nowadays it's either Castoria or Morgan. That and there's so much art buried deep in twitter that's yet to be discovered by someone here.
>>4102519>That's because every female servant got overshadowed by Castoria.Can't really argue against that. It's nice that we got so much art with her, but should artists really hyper focus like that?(well, if it's the artists themselves shipping them, then I guess it can't be helped)>If we get yuri art of Gudako nowadays it's either Castoria or Morgan.Mostly Castoria. Gudako x Morgan is one of the ships I have the most art and it's still just 12 images.>That and there's so much art buried deep in twitter that's yet to be discovered by someone here.Considering that twitter doesn't even have a tag system, how does one even goes about finding art there?(teach me, and I'll try to become a miner and sacrifice myself digging there. . . Sacrifice, because without tags, there's also no Blacklist, and without one, I assume digging will be hell)
>>4102579Castoria might even have more art with Gudako than Mash does. With Twitter I typically just search the English and Japanese versions of Gudako's name with the name of the servant I want to see art of her with.
>>4103447Ayaka? I didn't expect to see Lumine's gf here. Here's some Lumine x Gudako
>>4103044>Castoria might even have more art with Gudako than Mash does.That seems very hard to believe. But at the same time, certainly not impossible.>twitterHm... I'll prepare myself mentally for a while and try it out.
>>4103482
>>4103483I think everyone's drawing Castoria because we're all waiting for Beast Olga to become playable. Beast Olga x Gudako will be the next big Gudako ship.
>>4103484You missed one.>>4103492I don't know sis... while I'd love to see you being right, that seems more than a little unlikely... Castoria got a considerable amount of art before she even had a story to justify it, and it can't be just because she's an Artoria, after all, the only Artoria ship that was remotely popular before her was Salter (really, I don't think I have ever seem a single fanart of Gudako with XX), on the other hand, we had Olga as our tutorial, and already had a few interactions with U-Olga, heck, she even sacrifices herself just to help Gudako beat the greatest enemy (I don't yet know her specific reasoning, but still) and yet, she only has a single piece of fanart with Gudako (as far as I'm aware), so for now, it seems to me that yuri artists (that still stick with this game) don't really like her...Or maybe I'm just jumping the gun, who knows, still hope you're right.
