    In the Grand Order OVA, Caster!Cú appears suddenly inside a ring of blue light. Is that just a different visual effect for Servants materialising in their physical form, or is it some form of teleportation / spatial transportation / what-have-you?

  2. #139242
    It's probably a visual effect. I don't really see runes doing spatial transportation. Maybe if he had more irish druidism stuff? considering they can pull off some crazy stuff.

    I want to see Fionn use his magecraft more speaking of.

    Hey, how old is Touko? Because Alba's, like, fifty or something, and they were at school together.

    dont know if it is teleportation but Scatch does use a rune meant for escaping combat in America and gets away from Cu alter with the rest of us that way

    2 things

    when you raishift, does your body go to the past or does it stay in the pod like with Olga?

    also, how exactly did the regalia allow us to hurt Sefar? always found it weird because Sefar is supposed to negate anything born from logic and intellect

    She's 20 in Mahoyo
    Spoiler:
    [Aozaki Touko (undersurface)] - 【Aozaki Touko - Design Notes】
    During the time of producing the Anime-version, I decided to alter the design she had in the Doujin-paper book.
    As a result of thinking again in my own special way of a correct design for Touko, I harmonized more with a relatively ordinary living, beautiful big sister-type who's good at her work, than a magician who gives the impression of separating herself from this transient world.
    By the way, I think you will understand the reason why her hair was short in the doujin version, if you'll be able to see Mahoutsukai no Yoru.
    While wearing her glasses, her facial expression is calm and kind.
    When she's taking them of, her facial expression is very cruel.
    Touko "offered" her long hair to Lugh Beowulf to be able to form a contract with a beast of his rank. This should have secured a complete success until Soujuurou beat the hell out of this werewolf. Also, 20-year-worth of hair is significant. The worth of a female magus' hair was emphasized during Aoko's fight with the Snark. It's a female magus' best possible weapon/ingredient/item as it can amplify spells and such. This is why should Touko lose in her fight with Aoko (in which she did lose), there's no way she can plan a comeback because she has exhausted her resources already. (hair and money alike)

    So that would make her like 30's in Fate.

    Note that the Clock Tower is kinda-sorta a university and the age differences can probably get pretty extreme.

    The woman mage's words lodged in the boy's heart. If he went to the Clock Tower, he thought, he might be able to understand himself. So, he had gone to consult his parents, who had just failed in their fifth assassination plot.
    "I want to leave home and study at the Clock Tower," said the boy. He was not yet ten years old.

    As a result, the boy's parents had driven him out by way of ridding themselves of a nuisance — under the pretext of unveiling their wonder child and sending him to the Clock Tower.
    Flat was 10
    Araya was probably a hundred and something before he joined.
    So it just really depends

    Was Araya able to live as long as he did without resorting to a Soul Jar or something due to some magical Buddhist practices or something?

    He's had multiple bodies. So pretty much the same as Zouken.
    Shiki killed him before he had time to make another one.

    inb4 speculation but that's probably how he gave kirie a second body, because he knew how to make them

    Wouldn't Sakura in the Apocrypha timeline have her natural hair color instead of purple? or maybe she'd just dye it blonde...

    You don't need Regalia to fight Sefar, Karna did it solo in his ending. The Regalia act as a powerup in the first three routes and Nero uses their fused form and the Sword of Mars so she can hurt Velber-01 directly (in Venus mode).

    The 'heroic spirit' that has complete abilities and memories of when it was alive will appear in this world and learn many things. But it is useless.

    They have no way to return to the main body, but merely disappear.
    So no matter how many times they are summoned into the same age, there will be no inconsistencies in their memories.

    I assume the ones that became heroic spirits will not change anymore.
    Even if they obtain new knowledge, the self that learns it will just disappear once the duty is complete.

Speaking of which, the information (souls) making up the Servants return to the main body at the same time as the death of the Servant, and the main body can know, as records, about the actions of the Servants as if reading a book.
    So the info goes back to the main body but no servant remembers previous wars due to them being copies except for special cases like Artoria.

    But servants are summoned from the main body so does the grail pick and choose what knowledge to supply the servant with?

    They make it so they don't have any knowledge because as they exist outside of time if they had it they would know the outcome of the how they are taking part of.

    I mean, the Ghost Liner is "Boundary Recording Band" which records recollection of past phenomenon. so I would assume a summoning system will select some of those recorded stuff like you cut out some part of the film, shove into a container and call it a day. Which means for a system designed for battle royale like a HGW, they will make sure the game is "fair" by censoring spoilers from the movie.

    Are there any differences between the "Runes of Origin" Cú Chulainn uses and the Primordial Runes Scáthach and Brynhild use?

    Also:

    The reason I ask is because not only is the visual effect different, but Cú also appears inside Lancer!Medusa's chain ring without disturbing it and without being noticed by either her or Mash (something I imagine wouldn't happen if he had just walked up to there in spirit form).

    All versions, really, but I was thinking specifically of original flavour Cú Chulainn.

    Ah, ok. So only the Caster version uses the first one, then? Thanks, Castor!
