That's accurate enough to Ganesha, so I'm cool. Ganesha, unlike some others, has never had more than one head, and always 4 arms.Originally Posted by Lily Emilio

The design is ugly, though, and I never found Jinako an interesting character in the first place. It boggles my mind they did that.
Both are tubby, though Ganesha certainly isn't lazy. He is a glutton though.
It kind of makes sense, I guess? If you're already set on having Jinako make an appearance, it would be fitting to have the psuedo be A)Hindu (because Karna) and B)fat (because that's the well they keep coming back to with Jinako). Ganesha is probably the most famous character who meets both criteria.
The actual design ends up being barely more serious than Jaguar Warrior's kigurumi, although I suppose it's nice that she actually gets extra arms. It kind of just looks like a bad cosplay beyond that, though - literally just a funny hat and big elephant boots. (IIRC she also does some Dumbo stuff in her animations, which makes the hat even more bizarre.)
so you didn't enjoy CCC?
Hm, that's fair. Let me amend my earlier statement, then: going entirely by second-hand accounts, Jinako never seemed like an interesting character to me.
I still think the design is ugly. :-)

Yeah, basically this.
Focusing on the fact that Beowulf broke his swords shows understanding of the legend, if you ask me. Especially the Christian reading, funnily enough. I guess having him break the swords could be a Noble Phantasm itself, but that's way too gimmicky. Also he's not supposed to be using both at once at all, but eh.

It would have been nice to have Archer comment at some point that Hrunting is a perfectly fine sword as long as Beowulf isn't using it, or something.
There is beauty to be find in gaudiness.
But there's no beauty to be found in MemeCancer Ganesha.
So what is a normal person's ability level when put into Servant Parameters?
I heard that E rank is equivalent to 10 people, but then I see Fujino whom I don't recall having much superhuman strength have E rank strength.
Is it a boost from just being in a servant container at all?
Bedivere's servant profile from the materials says that his Silver arm boosts his Strength, Consitutution and Agility from "average human" to the level seen in his stat sheet.
But even if we assume that his base stats in those parameters were E, getting those levels all to A, B and A+ respectively seems pretty huge.
Arondight was a massive mana hog for just giving a plus one to everything when it was drawn out. For Bedivere I think the strain only happens when he tries to use the beam function from what I recall.
Boost from being in a Servant container probably
The E = 10 people comes from Food's interpretation that a "normal value" means 1 person
It's probably not.
Though abandoned, forgotten, and scorned as out-of-date dolls, they continue to carry out their mission, unchanged from the time they were designed.
Machines do not lose their worth when a newer model appears.
Their worth (life) ends when humans can no longer bear that purity.
Have we seen Archer use any weapons other than Kanshou and Bakuya for something other than ammunition for his bow? I think Ex Link had some animations with Gae Bolg or something, but I haven't played it yet.
shit BL says
Once and always and nevermore.
We know he HAS Hrunting, and I thought he used it in Fate once?
He uses Caladbolg as a melee weapon against Shirou in UBW
Also Durandal
and other weapons I guess

He used it in HA. They were Tracking Projectiles that the longer he infused man's with the the stronger they got.
"Only in my company, will you not be a monster"
anywhere than here
Should probably switch it for the Fate/extra E=26 scale... Or was it 24?

Are mystic eye sealers likely to function with Ryougi? Even though she wouldn't need them of course.
Yeah. Touko made some for her but she refused.
He uses Hrunting quite a bit. That entire Archer fight in Hollow is built around dealing with it. It's also one of the stupidest fighting game moves ever concieved in F/UC.
The idea, I think, is that Archer uses Caladbolg and Hrunting, two swords known for famously failing, and uses them better than their original users did by just using them averagely. Maybe he felt sorry for them. With Hrunting it might not be exactly Beowulf's fault depending on how you interpret it though, with Naegling it was entirely Beowulf's fault - but then I guess Hrunting's themes and etymology make for a better arrow.
How as Caladbolg famous for failing?
From what I can gather from a quick wikipedia search I don't see anything about the sword breaking or being too weak, thought it was Fergus himself that was inadequate.
