[Altima of the Gates]

Put in more recent terms, is Sakura in Heaven's Feel essentially a Psuedo-Servant with Angra Mainyu?

I don't think so actually. This piqued my interest because I remembered the idea from somewhere that Ilya was originally supposed to have pseudo immortality because of being contracted to Herk, and isn't Gudao/Ritsuka in GO supposed to have immunity to huge resistance to poison because of being contracted with Mashu?

So Sakura's situation is like that, getting perks from her Servant unknowingly (and other side effects). But in her situation it also goes in reverse and her servant can use her powers when it's projecting through her, to eventually when they essentially become one being, but even then I dunno if I would call that a pseudo Servant. Unless you could use Rule Breaker to separate a spirit from a human too when they become a pseudo Servant, but in HF it's precisely because it was a contract that it worked with Sakura, which is why Shirou comes up with the idea ONLY when he hears that AM is linked to her by contract.

So I am inclined to believe that the two situations are not the same.

Jalter has a skill that lets her summon dragons.
she summoned fafnir, a dragon
...

I know that, I was just wondering why it let her summon a dead dragon.

Though to be honest, where does the dragons come from anyway. The Other Side?

[Trubo]

Probably because, being known as a Dragon Wtich, it'd be strange for her not to be able to summon dragons.

[Milbunk]

Oh that is a good point Altima. What would happen if you used rule breaker on someone like mashu or rinshtar.

[castor212]

i dont think there's any magic formula going on with pseudo servant

or is there

Mash: No magic can sever the bonds I have with my senpai
Ishtar: Greek witch killed by goddess

[AvengerEmiya]

Mash: No magic can sever the bonds I have with my senpai

And my desire for F/GO NTR continues to grow.

How strong is Xuanzang?

Ishtar: Greek witch killed by goddess

Well we know that is what their reactions would be, but mechanically, will it do anything but sever the contract is the real question.

[Mcjon01]

It doesn't expel Servants from their class containers when it stabs them.

[Canon]

How strong is Xuanzang?

Mat, wait for it

[Iceblade44]

Well we do know she throws a killer palm strike...

[Lily Emilio]

Didn't she nuke Divine Spirit lvl demon pillar that is Ozy + grail with buddha palm and be like woops did I overkill.

[Ereus]

So its mentioned some entities are born from human imagination and such? how heavily would dragons and such fit in there or is it gonnna turn out there 'aliens'

[Sandstorm77]

Dragons are what power our cars.

[Mechrast]

Jeanne Alter is completely seperate from original Jeanne and a completely different being, correct?

[asterism42]

Yes. Something about Jeanne being unable to have an Alter because she's a Saint or smth, so the Orleans Grail bascly bought Gilles's fanfiction to life instead.

[Mechrast]

Also, from 「To think that, in the depths of her consciousness, she wants to perform a strained avenge trade while being surrounded by handsome men of her own liking!」, what does strained avenge trade even mean?

[Rafflesiac]

Basically she wants a harem of boytoys hanging off her every word and action, otome game style.

[forumghost]

Basically she wants a harem of boytoys hanging off her every word and action, otome game style.

She wants to evolve from a mere Seibaface into OGSeiba, huh?

[AvengerEmiya]

Yes. Something about Jeanne being unable to have an Alter because she's a Saint or smth, so the Orleans Grail bascly bought Gilles's fanfiction to life instead.

Which never made sense since its not like Alters are created by taking a Heroic Spirit and splinting their soul into a Yin half & Yang half.

Literally every Alter so far has been a result of the original hero being "tainted" in some way (grail mud for Saber, Medb trying to make the perfect BF for Lancer, Shirou smashing Kiara for Archer). Yeah, you can totally have a chalice of the purest substance on planet earth, but if you pour nasty shit into it, it's gonna get polluted regardless.

And Apocrypha and Extella both show that Jeanne's faith isn't as rock solid as we keep getting told.

Basically she wants a harem of boytoys hanging off her every word and action, otome game style.

Being an otome heroine in Nasuverse never ends well.
