Why would the real Richard ever attack the source of his fanboy fetish

[8000]

Well there are a few King Richards.

[Arashi_Leonhart]

...and?

[asterism42]

Three English ones, anyway. But the whole Crusades thing does bring Lionheart to mind.

[8000]

...and?

It seemed relevant.

question

サーヴァントは自力で魔力を生成できるものの

was this always a thing and everything I thought i knew was a untrue all along
or was this a retcon of sort
or was this simply referring to getting energy from outsourcing it (aka foodporn)?

[Mcjon01]

It seems she can sleep to stop consuming magical energy, but doing so doesn't replenish it.
So food will be her only source of energy. I'm in charge of cooking, so I can't be lazy about it.

"Servants take physical form using magical energy, right?
Thensince you can't restore magical energy, you'll get weaker every time you fight?"
I ask her after cleaning up our meal.


"It does not mean I cannot restore any magical energy.
Magical energy is constantly created within oneself. A Servant without any outside source can create magical energy using its own Magic Circuit."
"I see. Then there's no problem, right?"


"…Well, how shall I explain this? Hmm, let me use that faucet as an example.
Water is dripping out of the faucet right now, correct? Please consider that as my magical energy being created. And the cup receiving the drop is me.
In this state, I can accumulate magical energy slowly."

"Well, there will be more dripping water the more water the cup holds.
As long as the cup holds some water, the faucet will create more. But when the water runs out, when I use up my magical energy, the faucet shuts off."

[Kotonoha]

As long as the cup holds some water, the faucet will create more.

Saber that's not really how faucets work.

It’s a modern art faucet that only fills full cups, not empty ones

Do we know when the Indian Heroic Spirits come from?
e.g. is Rama from the Treta Yuga, roughly 1-2 million years ago, or from ~1000 BC? Does the Kurukshetra War take place near the beginning of the Kali Yuga in ~3000 BC, or is it in one of the more conservative guesses of ~1000 BC or so?

I know that they went with the historical dates for Gilgamesh, but I haven't kept up-to-date on the Indian stuff.

We only know about Karna and Arjuna, if we take what Holmes said:

Holmes: Heracles and the witch Medea, as well as the other heroes of Greek mythology. Karna and Arjuna of Indian myth. Brave Celtic warriors and the legendary knights of King Arthur. The legendary paladins of Charlemagne, the giant-killing Beowulf. Raikou and the four Heavenly Kings which exterminated the Tsuchigumo. All these myriad myths and legends, and more, speak of the deeds of great heroes---Should you say that I was created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, are those heroes not also the creations of others? Though I am a person of the same era as Doyle's writings, most heroes of legend were retroactively shaped by history. For example, though Siegfried's tale is said to have occurred with the 5th century as the backdrop by its origin, the Elder Edda, those collection of poems only came to be after the 8th century. Similarly, Karna and Arjuna are from legends of the 4th century BC that place their story as being in 5000 BC. Mister Golden, Sakata Kintoki, has many brave anecdotes attributed to him, but those were mostly stories created during and after the Edo period. Besides him, there are many other examples of Heian-era heroes in Japan whose stories were handed down in the early Edo era.

I feel like theres a joke here im missing

[neveron]

Huh, alright. Sounds like they're highballing the date a bit to cover all their bases: 5000 BCE is the oldest theorized date quoted on Wikipedia. (Most dates seem to be around the start of Kali Yuga, 3100 BCE-ish, with the most recent date being in the 800s BCE.)

Maybe we'll get a more definite statement in that one Lostbelt that sounds like it has to do with Hinduism.

[You]

how strong would staging ground Touta generally be?

[Express]

His NP seems about as strong as Arjuna's normal zap arrows.

Arj probably likes him some rice tho

[AnoniMauuss]

Are there any translations for Character Material? Other than TM Wiki which isn't to be trusted for obvious reasons.
