Fate/Grand Order Mats

Why did no one call Angra Bob, I wonder.

[Lily Emilio]

Yeah, but Shiva becoming the grand daddy of the Shinto Gods is something I didn't expect.

Why are you surprised? Hindu gods being the original is in ever since FSN

Vajra????
One of the divine symbols of Indra, God of lightning, from ancient India mythology.
Indra was originally a phenomenon introduced by the Aryans, and Vajra was officially called Vijya.
But when he was renamed to Taishakuten as the age turned to Buddhism, his divine symbol also changed its name.
It is a single-shot Noble Phantasm, and its damage is about B+.
It is a simple weapon that does fixed damage regardless of the possessor's magical energy. Also, Vajra is a weapon that Buddhist Gods possess.

And after many years Nasu pushed it further with Tamamo then Raikou then Musashi.

isn't Ammy technically older since the Hindus weren't around for the White Titan

jesus I've pointed out the Herk-Nioh thing dozens of times before and people are still surprised

drown in your waifus and die

A rank divinity is a ripoff

I dunno, Amaterasu shares certain similarities with the god of the rising sun Savitr of Hinduism. It is said that Savitr is the rising sun and then the role for the day is given to Surya on his chariot, kinda also similar to China's Xihe having 10 suns as children and some (unconfirmed if fake or real) legends of Amaterasu letting 3 goddesses born from her necklace/magatama (in her bet with Susanoo) do the job for the day (morning, noon, sunset) after she does the rising sun.

Don't worry, i remembered it. I guess the answer to that discussion ended up being syncretism, baby.

Syncretism is the answer to everything.

To quote Karl: Assimilation of all things!!!

[Kelp24]

but does it work backwards
can Indra be a Raita tittymonster

[Arashi_Leonhart]

Woe to the person that doesn't think it can happen

[Magikewl]

It’s just a matter of when not can

King Hassan giving up his Grand title in Camelot is weird, I thought he made a point of doing it in Babylonia. If he wasn't a Grand how did he moralize Tiamat?

On that note, does it say why helping Guda at Camelot cost Gramps his title? Can Grands just not interfere with stuff? Seems like a dumb limitation given Guda was opposing a Beast. Grand Servants are seeming less and less like effective systems.

[Zurvan]

There are black people in the middle east, but they sure don't look like it.

I'm just going to assume Scheherazade, the Hassans and Solomon don't count either then

and please, if you want to rant about this do it somewhere else

I'm done talking about it.

Why would they, that's an Persian, a Jew, and a bunch of Arabs (presumably). TM however does seem to go with Sheba being Ethiopia.

He lost the title Grand
But he still had the spiritual foundation equivalent to a Grand.
So he blew all that power to make Tiamat mortal.

Even you are better than this

[Lily Emilio]

Oh wow I didn't notice Musashi's location in the material is 異邦異聞帯 (Foreign Lostbelt) instead of Japan like in the game.

Now what I'm wondering is how he showed up in Babylon. He wasn't summoned by a grail and doesn't have Independent Manifestation. He might've been summoned by the planet but that seems weird if he wasn't Grand anymore.

We need full context on Grands dammit.

That's interesting. More Lostbelts on the way? Hopefully as an Event or something.

So her BC EX even allows her to escape from pruning phenomenon lol.
