Assuming Kadoc is 20 in 2016, he'd be 13 at the time Strange Fake takes place. Though "a Zemlupus magus" put Svin and Roland Berzinsky out on the ropes when they made a fuss, it probably wasn't Kadoc.

I am reading the Light Novel and I'm currently on Vol. 2, it's pretty good I like how there's more detail in it that the anime skipped over so far, adds to the overall enjoyment.
also I have realized that reading LNs feels way better for some reason, I used to be a big western books reader, then kinda stopped when I got into manga and haven't really touched a book sense, but picking this up I forgot just how more imaginative you get trying to picture it all.
has the anime deviated much from the story so far?

Bazdilot is a surprisingly human member of the cast who is just here doing a job for his boss (who's basically his dad). Then his boss dies, and he decides "I know it was one of you fuckers, so I'll just kill you all". Not much depth or complexity, straightforward and relatable.

>>
>>285787686TA did warn Faldeus, you act outside of what's necessary and it'll come back to bite you. If he had told TA to kill Bazdilot it probably would have been the correct choice, saved the world a lot of hassle, Heracles couldn't have prevented it either. Instead CIA got too greedy and tried using servants to solve problems outside of the grail war jurisdiction, having his servant take care of his personal grudges, which is a big moral boundary.
Police have managed to keep their hands clean throughout the war.

I’ve seen anime onlies be convinced Richard and s Arthur despite him clearly saying he isn’t, your comparison doesn’t work.
Most people who reacts to this haven’t seen a lot of Fate so they have no idea what they’re watching in general.

I was thinking but on the Gram topic isn’t it possible that it gets A+ because Sigurd is punching it up instead of beaming with it? It’s still Anti-Fortress like Excalibur. And Sigurd has A++ NP rank like Artoria.
Felt more like it could be A++ rather than how it isn’t
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>285792516
Gram is most likely in the same boat as Balmung. Both are A+ as their 'normal' rank when summoned in Servant form, but can scale up to EX if special conditions are met (that is what the + means, after all). Balmung went EX in Apocrypha when Sieg used a Command Spell to restore its original power from life.

>It’s still Anti-Fortress like Excalibur
Regular Gram (Giltard version) is just Anti Unit. It's this thing >>285786914 , just Arondight Overload. It doesn't have a beam. Siegfried should get props for turning such a shit NP (literal A Rank) into something so much stronger.

>>285785381
>is there some autistic explanation to why the fake war doesn't have a saber or is it just because it's the special snowflake class reserved to the mc's servant
The explanation is that they deliberately left the Sabre spot empty, and Nature abhors a vacuum. It's like singing a song but refuse to sing the last word. The Layline basically got jump-started when some of the magic leaked into the missing Sabre-shaped hole and created a REAL Sabre servant.
And once Richard was called, that then pulled the Layline into finishing the summon itself by keep summoning the other servants afterwards.
The reason this was done at all was because Prelati was magically blocked from fully analysing the past grail wars by those in charge, so she only knew how to replicate it partially. If Richard was never summoned then they would have failed and there would be no grail.

This is a VERY bad starting point. Strange Fake is comprised at least 70% of references to other Fate works. But fine, here, for you, the basics you should've already known:
Francois Prelati was an alchemist in the 1400s who was a good friend of Gilles de Rais, comrade in arms to Jeanne D'Arc, who, after going insane and delving into black magic after Jeanne's execution, hired Prelati to try and summon some demons and also commit a bunch of rape and murder.
Prelati knew Jeanne at least by that proxy. And Jeanne is exclusively a Ruler class Servant.

>>285794041
>The explanation is that they deliberately left the Sabre spot empty
They literally couldn't manage it. If they could've they would've just had a normal war, man. Do the math.
They summoned six as a method to agitate the leylines which caused a flood of mana into the region. That's why it's a "fake war"; essentially, those 6 servants were summoned for no reason other than to make it so a real war can be executed afterwards. There is no grail intended for them. If the method failed and the agitated leylines could not support more servants, they would just go ahead with the six as a test run anyway.
>>
>>285793942
I recommend watching at least Stay Night (the Deen show, the UBW show and the Heaven's Feel movies), Zero, Apocrypha and Lord El Melloi Case Files before going into this. It's for the better, trust me.
>>
>>285794041
It's also because it's based on the 3rd Fuyuki HGW. Back then the Edelfelts still participated and they specialized in mirroring magic resulting in their two matriarchs summoning 2 Sabers. That's just an aspect of the ritual amerisharts could not replicate without an Edelfelt helping them.

A possible theory since Sigurd mentions you need Odin's Blessings to wield it properly and he notes he is somewhat weaker than life in his interlude.
So it could be that there is something holding back the actual full release.

Okay so Fate/Apocrypha establishes that if a grail war either gets halted or risks the destruction of the world, the grail has a failsafe (which fails most of the time) to summon a Ruler-type servant, specifically since the system is based in a holy grail, it has to be a Saint at it. Not ruler as in king, but as the servant of the rules, a judge or referee, with 2 CS for each participant and other boons like True Name Revelation and servant detection. In Apocrypha, Jeanne is the chosen Ruler of the Great Holy Grail War.
In Strange Fake their grail is so utterly shitty its very existence is a huge risk to the planet. But it's so utterly shitty that this failsafe is bugged and even if a Ruler summon is triggered it would take way too long for that.
Prelati wants to screw Jeanne over because Gilles did everything for Jeanne D'Arc. He fought for justice under her banner, and turned to saint out of murderous rage for her being burned at the stake. But again, Strange Fake's grail isn't summoning a Ruler any soon.

ORT really isn't a DAA in any traditional sense
If its awake the world is over
Arc can't stop it, the other DAA can't stop it, it isn't part of the club. The only reason they listed it as a DAA is because it ate the previous #5 DAA in seconds when he got too close. Anything it touches becomes another world through terraforming.

Exactly what it implies. It has to be a Saint, someone identified as such by the church. You need some modicum of impartiality to be a Ruler, but the Holy Grail will specifically select a Ruler that is a Saint to be its overseer among other restrictions like lacking a wish from the grail itself.
Saint Martha also has Ruler qualifications, while Sherlock Holmes and James Moriarty also do, but since they aren't Saints they wouldn't get to be HGW referees.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>285794861
Holy grail is a Christian artifact
Holy grail war was always a Christian ritual of sorts, even if the grail is fake
It needs a neutral arbiter to rule over the war, someone uncorruptable and unbiased, it also must be someone without earthly desire
Therefore it selects from saints, Christian saints
Amakusa doesn't qualify as a ruler but the Einzeberns cheated him into that class in Apocrypha by cheating. He was never a canonized saint, and he realizes in the end he's just a 3rd rate caster.

Furthermore the reason Rulers get 2 CS specific for each servant is exactly because the system foresees a possible scenario of a rogue Ruler. So if someone cheats like the Einzberns did, the Ruler takes a side, or the Ruler gets mindbroken brainwashed, he won't be curbstomping everything with all those CS. 2 per participant is something like a judge bonus but also a limit.

Its because in the original draft of Apocrypha Ruler was meant to be the final boss, and she would use her command seals to order your servant to kill itself, and you would have to use your command seals to negate Rulers seals, which is why she has two, because masters have three, so the master will always have one more.
>The original concept for Fate/Apocrypha was not a light novel, but a planned MMORPG (often referred to as a canceled Fate online game project) envisioned by Kinoko Nasu and designed by Takashi Takeuchi.
>In this original MMO concept, the story revolved around a repeating Great Holy Grail War where players would battle in cyclical fights.
>Original Concept & Ruler's Role
>The Concept: The game was designed to feature two teams (Red and Black) fighting for the Holy Grail in a massive, repeating war.
>Ruler (Jeanne d'Arc) as Final Boss: Ruler was designed to be the central, recurring aspect of this, acting as a counterforce intended to protect the framework of the Holy Grail War itself. In the, original,,, now-scrapped, concept, she was planned to be the final boss for the game's launch state.
>Memory Retention: Unlike other Servants who were reset, Ruler was designed to retain the memories of each repeating "game".
>Ultimate Goal: Rather than just helping one master win, her role was to ensure a "complete story" for the war, concluding with her activating a special,, ultimate Noble Phantasm, according to early,,, notes on the project.

Wait a moment that sounds familiar

>>285795774
Final battle is you trying to destroy the grail while Jeanne tries to protect it by the way.
>Truth of Fate/Apocrypha
>Nasu: To summarise, there is a conspiracy in the finale of the story that intends to use the Holy Grail War framework for evil. As the Counter Force, the Servant Joan of Arc wishes to safeguard the framework of the Holy Grail War. Other Servants wish to protect their respective Master, but Joan wishes to protect the Holy Grail War. Although the development of the story may change depending on the Servant’s relationship with the Master, ultimately the story concludes with Joan activating her ultimate Noble Phantasm which she stubbornly withheld. The goal here is to create a world with a complete story, despite being an online game.

I feel that David is often underestimated. Even though he is a younger version of himself, he still has strong abilities.
>Hamesh Avanim (C-*)
Is a very deceptive NP with the ability to strike a vital point on an enemy, causing their equipment to become David's property or unusable for the original user. Let's remember that David was originally designed for Apocrypha as Achilles' main enemy (but Chiron was given this role instead). I guess this NP was intended for that duel.
>Sacrifice: Flames Upon the Altar (A) Phantasmal incense burners would materialize around each enemy presence, before they would burn the incense inside them, causing violet fumes to envelop the targets. Immediately, thunderclouds and mist gather overhead, giving somebody the impression of Mount Sinai, and hellfire is sent down from Heaven, thoroughly incinerating those who oppose the Will of God without even leaving a single drop of blood behind. The flames as a whole take on the form of an altar.
>The Ark of the Covenant (EX) A wooden box that stored the lithographs left behind by Moses. The Magical Energy of those who touched it will be stolen without exception, no ifs, ands, or buts, leading them to their extinguishment.
This NP instantly extinguishes all of Heracles' lives, and according to the description of the material, it seems that no defense can stand against it.
>>
>>285796191
No he's underestimated because the writers clearly didn't care about him and barely know about him, since his entire role is just to be a jewish stereotype instead of actually being who he was in his legend. There's a certain facet of servants where you can tell the writer just didn't care, like Blackbeard. They could have made any character the generic otaku character and it would have been the same probably. Very little of David tends to feel like David.

Nor should anyone be deceived by Caesar’s glory, hearing him celebrated with the highest praise by the ancient writers, because those who praise him are seduced by his good fortune and terrified by the duration of the empire which was ruled under his name and did not permit writers to speak freely about him. But anyone who wishes to know what writers, when free, would say about him should see what they say about Catiline. Caesar is all the more detestable, just like the man who is to be blamed more for committing an evil deed than for wishing to do so. Also, let the reader see how they celebrate Brutus with so much praise, to the extent that, unable to blame Caesar because of his power, they celebrate his enemy.

>“How old is Sigma?” was a question I’ve always wondered since the text said Sigma is actually older than he looks since since his appearance stopped aging due to the experiments done to him as a child. So some time ago I did some research, and here are the calculations below:
>First, Fate/strange fake takes place around 2008/2009.
>Next, we know Fate/Zero takes place in 1994.
>Maiya met Kiritsugu 11 years before F/Z, so Sigma must have been born at the latest by 1983. (Interestingly, since Kiritsugu was 29 during F/Z, Kiritsugu was just 18 years old when he rescued Maiya.)
>Subtracting the years, Sigma is at least 25/26 by the events of F/SF (unless there were some shenanigans like Reines in Apocrypha…)
>A bit unrelated, but since Maiya was already dead when Francesca/Francois picked up Sigma following his government’s collapse, Sigma was at least 11 years old at the time. And he has been working as a mercenary ever since…

NTA but that doesn't stop God from:
>letting something happen knowing you can overcome it
>putting some sort of trial you need to overcome
We are repeatedly shown that God foresaw and took small actions against the antagonists, with saint servants confirming he is on your side too. But it isn't like he just smited the problems straight away.
Some people theorize Ordeal Call IV with Metatron's kangaroo court was actually something factored into his plans even if Metatron herself was acting independently for most of the chapter.
Not like we know if there is some greater reason for that or if he is just helping humanity.

He can't. He doesn't have that kind of power. He hasn't since 0 AD.
Jesus was probably an experiment of wielding his power in the Age of Man. The results of that were complicated enough for him to not try a second time.
But even by the 1400s, Jeanne D'Arc could hear his voice and know he was powerless in this texture. God can't just smite things. YHWH is far, far, far from all powerful in Fate.

If ORT wasn't a DAA it wouldn't be considered among the DAA.
>If its awake the world is over
Uh, no. ORT explicitly needs a directive to allow it to destroy the world. That was the entire point of Daybit and Tezca's goal in LB7.
>Arc can't stop it
She probably can. Especially with the exposition given in Remake that small and heavy entities are superior to large and heavy ones with Arcueid's Principle being that very concept taken to the logical extreme, since it allows her to compress energy on a planck scale. She has the single greatest ability to manipulate energy in the entire TM world.

>Uh, no. ORT explicitly needs a directive to allow it to destroy the world. That was the entire point of Daybit and Tezca's goal in LB7.
In LB7 ORT is a subspecies of ORT, not true ORT. They said it might take a few bites of the planet and wander away, which is why they needed to give it a prime directive. It feeds on civilization and culture, so a blank earth isn't as appealing to it. Its a planet eater from the OORT cloud that crash landed ages ago to feed on the planet once it hits peak ripeness. In LB7 it was kinda done with this shit after dying twice which is why it tried to wander away, it liked eating interesting things, it said that DAA #5 had a good flavor to it. Bleached earth just didn't match its flavor anymore the same.
The planet has no power over ORT since its a planet eater, its something that regularly kills planets and TYPES, whatever you do to it, it'll just evolve a mechanism around whatever you did. Also gaia has no power over it due to its terraforming ability with crystal valley, whatever its standing on is no longer Gaia, Arc receives no power near ORT. We saw in LB7 ORT just killed dino Arcuied instantly. If Gaia had any power over that thing it would have been gone ages ago.
Church is the one that labels things DAA, they get things wrong occasionally. Its not like DAA have a legion of doom gathering where they address the newest DAA directives together, they aren't a real organization, its more a ranking created by the church. They called ORT a DAA after discovering it had functions similar to a vampire since it eats things and absorbs their power, but ultimately it isn't a vampire at all, its a space alien that just crash lands into planets and devours them after awhile. Its a giant spider that just feeds on its host.
>>
>>285798329
>Uh, no. ORT explicitly needs a directive to allow it to destroy the world. That was the entire point of Daybit and Tezca's goal in LB7.
It may not destroy the Earth entire but if ORT activates the world of man is going to get eaten.
Angra Mainyu himself said the spider's a better killer of humanity than he is, if only for the sake of speed. And Brishisan said earth could lose its anthroposphere if ORT turned on.
The planet will be fine (if a little grungy with some crystals here and there once it's nibbled its fill), the prime species won't be.
>She probably can.
Only ORT can defeat ORT.

>>

Essentially correct. Post-Remake it's whoever has the Idea Bloods. ORT has the fifth Idea Blood.. technically. It probably unraveled it and analyzed it and can replicate it freely, because that's what ORT does to stuff.

>They said it might take a few bites of the planet and wander away, which is why they needed to give it a prime directive
No, you misread what Tezca said. Take a look at the scene again. He said if Izcali's directive was half-assed due to wavering in his hatred towards PHH then ORT would interpret his directive in a half-assed fashion and only take a bite out of the planet as opposed to destroying CHALDEAS. It needs a clear directive to destroy the planet.
>It feeds on civilization and culture
This is headcanon.
>Its a planet eater from the OORT cloud
ORT doesn't regularly eat planets, because again, it needs a directive to accomplish that.
>The planet has no power over ORT since its a planet eater
Again, merely referring to ORT's scale. There are other planet eaters like Kiara, Cernunnos, etc.
>its something that regularly kills planets and TYPES
Headcanon again. It doesn't.
>Also gaia has no power over it due to its terraforming ability with crystal valley
>Arc receives no power near ORT
Arcueid explicitly employs the Inner Sea itself as her Reality Marble. So she can just counter ORT's Crystal Valley with that.
>dino Arcueid
Is not Arcueid. She has zero agency or combat power. Especially with Kukulcan and Malla taking most of her functions. The real Arcueid is explicitly in charge of the management of Earth.
>They called ORT a DAA after discovering it had functions
ORT is likely a legit DAA because Idea Blood itself ought to function as a directive. Basically ORT just like all Ultimate Ones is meant to take requests from planets. This is the entire reason the Alien God's heart (taken by Daybit) was needed to give it a directive, since the Alien God is a planet (albeit a hollow one). Likewise Idea Blood will function as a directive taken from the Moon.
>>
>>285794802
Zelretch is listed as a DAA even though he never wanted to become a vampire, which is why I confidently state that even ORT would be annoyed if some Earthlings decided to list him as part of the DAA, but both Zelretch and ORT have no choice if somebody decides to call them a DAA

I mean, Nasu also considers Shirou to have defeated Gilgamesh.
But really you must recognize Camazotz didn't defeat ORT, Camazotz "and the Malla" defeated ORT. Without the Malla, it was a victory of minutes, hours, or perhaps a day at best. Camazotz didn't have any way to keep it from regenerating and starting the fight anew.
>>
>>285798930
If Nasu said that, then sure, Shirou did defeat Gilgamesh.
>But really you must recognize Camazotz didn't defeat ORT
Yeah, but ORT can still be placed out of commission if it takes enough damage. That's why physical destruction is listed as the only way to defeat it. If it's destroyed and takes millions of years to recover, then that's a defeat by most accounts.
>>
>>
>>
>>285799024
It would have regenerated instantly if its heart wasn't removed, and even without a heart it can keep moving as long as something eventually falls into its chest. Once its reality marble was initiated in LB7 where it turned the entire LB into trees, nothing could kill it anymore, since the entire world became ORT. Even if its body completely stopped existing it could perfectly regenerate in seconds. It turns the world into its body, so that as long as part of it exists it can keep coming back. Which is why Kukulan burned away the world, even though it still should have been able to come back considering part of it was still alive (its heart).
>>
>>285799024
If it's in its activated state it regenerates pretty quickly. In LB7 it completely regrew everything it had lost in a matter of moments once it acknowledged Chaldea as a threat. To the point that defeating it even with Excalibur was genuinely impossible until U-Olga used her Tachyon Jail to stop its healing, so we could blow off its armor one final time and hit it before it regenerated again.
It just has to realize it's even damaged, and that's where the Malla confounded it.

>It would have regenerated instantly if its heart wasn't removed
ORT's regeneration isn't instant which is precisely why ORT was stated to "be on the verge of collapse" after the Servants deal enough damage to it in LB7. With the Rayproof needed to finally take it out.
>and even without a heart it can keep moving as long as something eventually falls into its chest
Sure, though physical destruction fucks it up since that's listed as the single means to take it down. Same as the other Types.
>Once its reality marble was initiated in LB7 where it turned the entire LB into trees, nothing could kill it anymore, since the entire world became ORT
Purely headcanon. There is nothing at all suggesting this was the case. The only reason ORT couldn't be killed was because it's heart was still active somewhere else.
>Even if its body completely stopped existing it could perfectly regenerate in seconds
Bro, ORT wasn't regenerating from the damage it took by the Servants. Where is the idea of this instant-regeneration coming from?
>It turns the world into its body, so that as long as part of it exists it can keep coming back
It doesn't.
>Which is why Kukulan burned away the world
If Kukulcan had burned the world it would have killed the Deinos and every other life around. It was just a side-effect of ORT finally being destroyed.
>>
>>285799167
>If it's in its activated state it regenerates pretty quickl

And it still didn't heal the damage the Servants inflicted on it. Which is explicitly pointed out by Sion.

It regenerated all of that after parrying the first shot of Rayproof, that's why it had its spider shape back when Chaldea fought it within the Tachyon Jail. Kotomine said it outright, it was healing faster than they could hurt it.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>285799382
ORT was always meant to be the weirdo that's way too strong. The rest can be overcome by various means, though Zelretch's defeat of the Crimson Moon was only temporary until Arcueid was born. Arcueid is destined to usurp/stifle the Crimson Moon so that was the solution to his long term problems, which is why he showed up in the millennium castle to get a good look at her.
>>
>>
>>285799361
The battle against ORT lasted for most of a day with the main character taking 5 minute breaks every 30 minutes, and in that entire period of time ORT restored a single organ, used the resulting remnants to recreate the spider form, and was otherwise so damaged that its physical body was on the brink of collapse. It isn't an incredibly fast regenerator that doesn't accumulate damage.
The main reason they needed the superspeed and ability to one-shot it is because ORT was almost at its heart so they couldn't retreat anymore, and without U-Olga they couldn't fire the Rayproof in a way that bypassed the gravitional storm without waiting two minutes.
What does the story tell us about its state before the last engagement?
>(Those Who Rule The Planet)
>Sion
>Oh! Yes, that would work! Since ORT is on the verge of collapse, that would be enough to push it over the edge!
What does the gameplay integration show us of its state in the last engagement? See pic.
How strange, both appear to tell us that ORT is almost crippled from the accumulated damage.
>>
>>
>>285799423
And ORT died by crashlanding on Earth and couldn't reactivate for millions of years. With it's profile stating physical destruction is required to take it down.
So all Types get fucked by physical destruction. Only one that doesn't is Arc due to the Luminary.

This "rule" has already been broken, probably more than once. Gil was the one summoned as the Ruler overseeing the Waxing Moon HGW, and that Grail also summoned Ruler Ibuki in that same war. Likewise Karl was the Ruler summoned in the Moon HGW, and although he is a Christian he is far from a Saint. And lastly Galahad is confirmed in FGO as the strongest judge of the Holy Grail Wars (i.e. the strongest Ruler summonable in a HGW), but despite his saintly qualities he is firmly NOT a canonized saint. This is one of those Nasu "rules" that doesn't work in practice.

That's what Jack the Ripper actually is. Berserker is more the legends and theories of what Jack could be. For instance, theories said he could be a police officer, so he appeared as one before Flat. The reason he's a watch is because there was a theory that cursed items drove people mad and made them commit the murders. You'll see more of this when his two Noble Phantasms are shown: Natural Born Killers and From Hell
>>
>>
>>
>>285799913
The "only Saints can be Rulers" clause is unique to the Einzbern Grail, same as the "only Hassans can be Assassins" issue, although that's more due to the grail's AI being stupid. The "only saints" clause exists because the purpose of Rulers in Holy Grail Wars is to serve as impartial judges, and one of the qualifications for the role is to have no interest in the Grail yourself. The easiest way to choose a Ruler in this scenario, therefore, is to limit to Saints who, on paper, should easily fit all the qualifications. The problem is that apparently apocryphal saints are also allowed, and Amakusa's yearning for the grail turned out to be a problem.
Originally, Chaldea's Servant system was modeled after the Einzbern system. This is why the saint clause for Rulers was mentioned. However, much like with Assassins, this clause was removed for the FATE system.
>>
>>285800035
They tell you in Apocrypha that loli jack is not the real jack, she's something that "got sublimated into his legend by mistake", jeanne literally tells you this when she exorcises Jack. In Apoc novels and in FGO they explain how there is no real "jack", so any time you try to summon him you get a different "theory" that could have been him.

>Nasu: I agree. However, the basis for our Lilith is not the snake from the Old Testament, it's the devil from older sources. Her status is closer to a parent figure to humanity, rather than an antagonist. I came up with the idea that she uses her feelings toward her inability to be human to justify her hatred of Mash. Weren't we talking a while ago about the touches made to make Lilith feel somehow still likable despite everything? I think it works because she's understandable. At the end of the story, it makes sense that a personality like her wouldn't find Mash acceptable.

Is there some hard evidence of this? While this may be the case but it could just as easily be them ignoring a general rule like they do all the time.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>285800197
It's stated in FGO, which itself is a reference to Fate/Apocrypha Material. The rule exists purely because it just makes choosing an impartial judge easier. A lot of the rules for the Einzbern grail exist purely to simplify the process and reduced errors. When the Einzberns modified the Grail to be able to allow them to summon a Ruler in order to cheat, it created a system error. This is why Amakusa, someone who shouldn't normally qualify for the role, was summoned. Rulers aren't supposed to want the Grail, but the Einzberns wanted a Ruler to serve as an active participant.
Most of the rules for the Fuyuki Ritual have proper reasons for existing. The entire reason things go so badly off the rails in most Holy Grail Wars is because these rules were violated. Nearly every problem in the Fourth, Fifth and Apocrypha rituals can be traced to the Einzberns breaking the rules in the Third War.

Tezcatlipoca just broke the rules by creating a human vessel for himself. It's more or less the same thing as Quetzalcoatl. Both of them are gods, but they both used human vessels to communicate with humans back when they were "alive". This is the loophole that Quetzalcoatl abuses the fuck out of in order to be summoned as a Servant. In the case of Quetzalcoatl, she inhabits the bodies of priests/priestesses who served her in live. Tezcatlipoca, on the other hand, just creates human vessels from scratch.
Romulus, just abuses the demigod clause. Strictly speaking, he still shouldn't qualify as a Grand because Romulus Quirinus is the version of Romulus after he became a full god exercising his complete authority, but Romulus just wants so badly to be human the Throne just went "Alright, alright, you're human, fuck it." It's the same bullshit that Kintoki uses to justify being a "Man" Servant, even though by all accounts he should be Earth or Sky. His dad was a thunder god and his mom was a mountain hag, he's definitely not human at all.

Crimson Moon is only the ultimate one of a moon instead of being the ultimate one of a planet.

More likely that the Mages or the Mage Association are people that strayed off. Apparently Grand Orders, at least the ones from families that trace back to Solomon (who made the Magecraft system) come from God. So that means they should be on the same side but mages tend to be sociopaths that would murder their own children for their goals. They don’t care about the means to their ends.

That’s “a” Jack. Jack the Ripper is like Robin Hood, many people qualify.
Since Jack didn’t get caught, anyone from that time period that killed 5 whores in misty nights qualify. There are at least 2 Jacks since Berserker mentions a nobleman that went around corrupting people’s souls and Flat theorized people closer to Jack’s true identity (like Assassin Jack) have a bigger influence on Berserker’s personality (which is why he defaults to her when he turns into a child)

Babylonia’s original future was that actually. Gil used his Clairvoyance or that weird NP to see the future. He saw he fought alone and won. But in doing so nothing was saved, everything else was destroyed.
That’s why he went on to seal his weapons (it’s vague if he sealed sealed or this meant he went on to arm the population as we later learn the Uruk ballistas were all loaded with his weapons authorized to be Broken Phantasm’d) and went on to overwork as a Caster. He was attempting to find another path he could save something.
I guess you could say it’s because his first thought was to fight alone that he decided to accept help.

Okay. Then how about this: Risei’s service of the church is what caused his son to be blessed with capacity for miracles (Kirei being born with magic circuits).

I think there is still a non-zero chance the middle figure is Chromclay, and the large one is an ORT terminal (spider form only).
Never trust Nasu to go with obvious theories.

>Yeah the thing that happens from it is Waver having a heart attack watching the war play out
Imagine watching the American recreating one of the most difficult magecraft rituals possible, except they make shit up as they go along and all the usual safety procedures are ignored. Waver is freaking out the same way you would, seeing someone handing concentrated plutonium with their bare hands.

One: I’m not sure on that
Two: even if it was true, there is a chance you are born with atrophied circuits like Shinji. Not everyone can learn just from being taught. You need a bare minimum quantity or quality.

No, most people don't have magic circuits and unless you are born from a magi family, there is almost no way you will get it. But people are still born with mana, they just lack the organ to convert it in to energy outside their body. Fgo's mc uses Mystic codes to do that and can't do normal magecraft in any other way

Shirou's circuits?
He was making new ones and risk turning black.
>>
>>285805533
no anon, he wasn't making new circuits, kerry didn't teach him how to keep the one he had active, so he basically kept using random circuits every time starting from zero until Rin taught him.
The number of magic circuits are decided at birth and you can't make new (but you can lose the one you have if you are stupid like shirou). Otherwise every mage would do that. Shirou was always a magus from birth, but he lacked a family crest and was not taught his origin (sword) until fsn

>he doesn't know
Read Apocrypha retard, it goes over how the + works in detail. Yes, it increases the rank of your stat temporarily, just like Nasu said in the original Complete Materials. Yes, it DOES apply to conceptual effects, as proven by Mordred boosting her Strength stat with the + modifier and becoming able to wound Siegfried through his B-rank damage negation.
>>
>>285805533
>>285805613
incorrect: Shirou was making temporary magic circuits before Rin taught him how to use his natural one. So, while you can make a temporary one, there is no point especially since they are worse from the one you are born with
>>
>>285805613
>no anon, he wasn't making new circuits
Secondary. Shirou was using the absolute beginner mage technique of transforming his nerve cells into temporary magic circuits. Kiritsugu just never told him that this is supposed to be used specifically and only for the purpose of jumpstarting his natural magic circuits for the first time.
>>
>>285805706
The other downside of converting your own nerve cells into temp magic circuits is that you literally risk killing yourself every single time lol, Kerry probably hoped he could scare Shirou away from magic by not teaching him to use his actual magic circuits and leaving him with the only option of playing Russian fucking Roulette with his own nervous system lmfao
>>
>>
>>285805533
His makeshift nerve-circuits were temporary. There is a scene I think when Shinji takes over the school with Bloodfort Andromeda that Shirou prepares a circuit before jumping in. Whenever he made one they didn’t last long.
It’s part of the reason why in HF he suddenly gets better before even the arm transplant, as he was in successive emergency situations and along the way accidentally learned to “skip” the process. It’s implied he somehow started using his own circuits, rather than creating over and over.

ORT is asleep in South America, so it can’t show up, and there’s no one in Tsukihime right now who could even wake it up
Chromclay’s nickname is “Castle,” which is why people think that big castle-looking thing in the middle is him. Plus, the abilities that guy uses feel very “Castle”-like too, so it honestly seems to fit.
>>
>>285805759
>A + does not mean anything can scale to EX, you subhuman retard
Yes it does, it literally does so in Apocrypha when Sieg activates Balmung with a command spell to trigger the + modifier. Anything above A rank is EX.
>your next reply is 'nuh uh because that's not what my headcanon says'
>>
>>
>>285806012
>ORT is asleep in South America, so it can’t show up
Not in Tsukihime. One of the main differences given between Fate and Tsuki worlds is that ORT is active in Tsukihime as Kirei stated in Olympus while it lays dormant in Fate worlds.
>no one in Tsukihime right now
We're told the planet's screams can wake it up. With ORT in general being more active in "worlds where Gaia manifests".
>the abilities that guy uses feel very “Castle”-like too
We don't know if the guy used any abilities. Someone created a castle wall there, but we don't know who.
>>
>>285806064
>>285806115
NTA, but you are meaning that rather than the + modifier being something like “doubles” it can also range from, trait bonus, rank-up or above that?
>>
>>
>>285806241
Technically the True Ether Full Release thing he used in the manga became canon in Traum.
Though in FGO he did have sequential interludes to restore Balmung’s true power so it could be more that he needs a few steps first and the CS just skipped the process.

>John outran Alcides and attacked him!
He “came back to life” after his neck was broken and he couldn't do anything, near Alcides, who had just exploded from inside due to the strategy of Jack and Flat fused by Caster. In addition, Caster used his NP on John, and Hippolyta was protecting him too, and even with all that, they didn't kill Alcides.
John is still human!
Shirou too, and unlike John, he did kill Gil.
Shirou doesn't count!

Narita isn't known for killing off his characters, and he's kept almost the entire cast of fsf alive until the last volume in a war that's supposed to be to the death. What ending should he give it to make this salvageable?
>>
>>
>>285807394
Because it’s cool and has a justification why a defensive NP known for failing could be good (in that Constantinople had far exceeded its maximum limit, and the defensive power can conversely increase the less you need to defend)
>>
>>
>>285807394
I like his real story, I like his design, and his NP animation is very good. Plus, his VA gives a great performance.

I have a feeling he wants to turn Alcides into a beast. He is obsessed with humanity and believes that it should be humanity that subjugates the gods, and now, with all the power he has, he is turning into a kind of Typhon. Perhaps in the end, they will only succeed in ruining Alcides' plan, causing him to escape to Fgo's world, pursued by the strongest servants of fsf. This would justify a collaboration, and Narita would wash his hands of it and leave the job of killing characters to another writer, leaving only humans and their servants-bros, and lesser villains, ending in one of the typical teenage conclusions that Narita knows how to do.
>>
>>
>>285807647
He should honestly just make up some BS to allow some servant like Dumas, Zealot to stay alive. It's obvious he has no interest in killing some characters so making the last vol a bloodbath is just retarded

Only he can save us; the two times they left him in charge of a collaboration, it was a success.

The only things we know about Perseus come from Medusa's seething POV, which the simps in the fandom will naturally run away with, because she's obviously a hot chick and therefore in the right

And Alcides came back to life too.
>Shirou killed Gil
I like to give Shirou the win but seeing you bending over backwards to not give John the win makes you look biased.
So I'll say this, read the VN and watch the anime. He didn't kill Gil despite being bailed out by Rin's mana, Saber's intervention and Archer projecting Rho Aias for him.

Fsf started out as an April Fool's joke. But because it was so well received, I guess he agreed to make it a serious story without thinking too much about what that would mean. And I really feel a little sorry for him. Narita took the job seriously, trying to bring together all the main Fate and Tsukihime characters, only for Nasu to tell him that it didn't matter and to relax. He tried to make references to FGO, only for Nasu to change several things. He tried to introduce new servants like Asclepius and Qin Shi Huang, only for them to appear as servants in FGO and for him to have to restart the volume. But I could ignore all that and enjoy it if it weren't for the fact that he doesn't know how to kill characters.

Because retards can't understand an Avenger trying to do his job, no matter how irrational he acts in the process.
They've been conditioned by FGO that all Avengers are tsunderes that are actually into (you)

Isn't this almost a given? He's been out for 4 volumes, obviously there's a reason for it.
