Oh, you're talking about Tensa Zangetsu cross guard aren't you? I think remember reading something like that.
I still remember reading comments about people thinking it was a swastika. The robot looks nice.

The tensa zangetsu cross guard looks like that because the kanji for bankai is 卍解

Neeeeeeeerrrrrrdddd

thanks, lol, this is what you could have done Classicaloid

[Skull]

this is what you could have done Classicaloid

Beethoven is the mecha man in ClassicaLoid.

Actually, I don't know where you are in S2 right now, but there is an episode that focuses on Dvořák and his love of trains.

[LJ3]

Not there yet just finished Liszt’s.

She fine

[Shiki]

Isn't it Gil is considered strongest?

[Arashi_Leonhart]

Please actually read what the thread is about

[Tsuzurao]

Didn't see this ones post yet so if anyone interested to check

Spoiler:

This are from vol 11, you can find the scans here along with the rest of the volumes up to date (the previous "strongest servants" are in vols. 5 and 9)

*Spoiler box edited into the quote for size.*

So, of that set of Servant ideas, I think I managed to discern who most of those are (even if I'm dependent on Google Translate on my phone to manage even that much).

From what I can tell, the first page has...

Top Row
Hoichi the Earless (something something no blind spots because he already has no ears?), Joe Magarac (steel body, something about eating steel?), *one I couldn't discern the name of*, and St. David.

Second Row
Houdini, King of Escapes (NP name: Metamorphosis?); King John, Lost King? (not sure I'm reading that title right. NP is something about erasing the ground when attacked?); and... apparently Grendel (I'm not sure I trust Google Translate to give me a smooth reading on that NP title)?

Last Four, going left-to-right
Mike the Headless Chicken (NP title is something like "Obsession with Living"?), Grace O'Malley (apparently a "Magical Pirate Girl"? "Irish Princess*Grace O'Malley-chi?" Am I seriously reading this correctly?), *another I couldn't discern*, and one that seems to just read as "The Queen" (NP title is something like "My Dear Chalky Castle"? I have a bad feeling about where this one is going...)?


And of what I could tell of the second page...


Top Row
*One I can't discern, something about the least-renowned member of a group of three?*, *Something something Three Siblings of something (that raised Cath Palug?!)*, and Johann Friedrich Böttger (NP: "Shotgun - Shooting Star Kick"? Sounds overly flashy for what seems to be just kicking a porcelain jar).

Second Row
Dvořák (something something merging music and locomotives together? Can't tell what I'm supposed to get from the NP title), Nils Olav (a penguin with a military rank, huh? NP title is something like "Matter of Promised Promotion"?), Grace Hopper's Moth (the literal first Computer Bug. Not sure what I'm getting for NP title), and Anansi (King of Stories, eh?. NP title is something like "Everything in this World"? Not sure what to make of the description).

Bottom Row
Katsushika Hokusai (as previously-mentioned. Seems this idea was that as Hokusai shifted pennames, so too can the Servant shift appearance and properties? NP is something like "Pen Name: Second Coming"?), Hiratsuka Raicho (took a bit of looking around to get the name right. NP title is "In the Beginning, Woman was the Sun", apparently from her writings from what I read), and Frances Griffiths (NP: "Cottingley Fairies").


Could anyone help me discern who those ones I couldn't read are supposed to be? Also, the rubytext is too small for the phone's camera to pick up, so I can't make out the NP names (of those that even have rubytext). Feel free to correct me on anything I misinterpreted, too. Also, sorry about bringing this thread back up over a month after the last post - I only just found out about this particular entry.

I think first page top row's 3rd is probably Zahhak https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zahhak

Last four's 3rd is Yasube Kimura, the person credited for Japanese bread culture(?). His appearance is a big parody of Anpanman. No en wikipedia entry, https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/木村安兵衛

While the second page top row's 2nd is probably Sons of Palug, they are the one that raised Cath Palug in Welsh Triad. I believe wikipedia mention them somewhere, to lazy to check.

Can I just say the typo in Mestre Bimba's description ("[...] a Brazilian man who is responsible for creating the practice of capoeira, a Brazilian marital art [...]") is awesomely funny?
That's not just his leg pointing up, it seems...

[Ubergeneral]

The picture for the last set seems to be down. Anyone have it that can repost it?

[Lobo]

Found this chapter by chapter review/commentaries on
School Life vol 12 (the tournament arc)
http://gno.blog.jp/izumi/29149595.html
And the FGO x School Life collab manga
http://gno.blog.jp/izumi/38041982.html
Both were released together at the end of last month

[Kamera]

Amazing lol

is this thing still on going?

[Lobo]

On July 20th comes out School Life vol. 14 and with it the series Material vol. 2
The book will contain around of 300 characters that have been introduced on the manga from this contest and the in-universe card game

[Hawkeye]

Any info on this, I'm desperately curious.

EDIT: Sorry, July 20th, not June, my bad, getting ahead of myself there.

[Hawkeye]

Any word on this?

[Lobo]

Sorry, but other than a couple of publicity images from the author twitter and the fact that with volume 14 it came out Himuten Material III (the continuation to the one you're asking about), couldn't find anything

[Hawkeye]

Well I tried searching about myself, I found like a half picture that included Dian Fossey, Uncle Sam and Alice Liddel, but not much else until just there. I think I've found the list of the three hundred servants being included?

[Quoren]

Seems like it’s just more of volume 2’s content, which is just full of entries similar to those in the Twitter images.

[Hawkeye]

Alright, found a blog link that might shed some light, as best as I can do for the first part, they're doing a tournament all Kinnikuman style against some heavenly kings and Issei has to fight this adorable little girl called Kinoshita? using his legendary Japanese heroes deck. If anyone else can shed any light on it, I'd appreciate it.
