One hundred percent this. A lot of the time with Servants who subvert their legends these days, it feels less like the writer had the idea to subvert a specific legend in a specific way, and more...
I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with inaccurate "crazy idea" Servants. Two of the most well-developed and popular Servants from FSN were "King Arthur was secretly a girl" and...
If we're comparing Karna and Achilles head-to-head, the Dracula fight is probably a useful reference point, given they were both fighting against the same opponent there. Karna got tagged by...
Isn't that kinda contradicted later in the same entry?
Kiritsugu!Saber was summoned in Germany and Rin!Saber was summoned in Japan. Yet Rin!Saber isn't just stronger, she has "her original...
Well,
Cú in Ireland = Artoria in Britain = Herk anywhere in Europe
so unless you think Artoria and Herk are already at the "castle and chariot" level, they presumably get something extra as...
Here's the source on prime Zouken:
On the same topic, there's this part from Einzbern Consultation Room:
I think the Association has more than enough skilled fighters and powerful...
To be honest, the B++ is probably one of the most impressive things about her. I guess A-rank Magic Resistance is always worth noting as well. But her kit basically boils down to "hit real hard, buff...
Could Kadokawa's involvement in this case have an effect on if/when Strange Fake gets adapted? It's the only ongoing Fate series that's being published by them rather than Type-Moon.
B++. So, stronger than Herk when her plus modifiers are active.
...Unless you mean overall power rather than "strength".
Okay, here's one for you:
Each member of the Black Faction from Apocrypha gets their respective Servant from the Red Faction (ie. Gordes gets Mordred, Darnic gets Karna, etc). They then proceed to...
I mean, Bellerophon says "use against armies" on the label, and Medusa mostly uses it for attacking, like, one person.
When was the last time Excalibur actually hit someone who wasn't standing still or moving in a straight line toward Saber?
If I recall correctly, it was something like "with First Folio, Xanadu Matrix and Evil Eater combined, I can control the Greater Grail". I don't recall the specific role of First Folio in all that,...
I'm pretty sure the bit about blocking explosions with it was just a gag.
Personally, it never bothered me too much. It's just one of those minor abilities which helps add flavor to a Servant's...
I might be totally misremembering here, but wasn't the Grail in Apocrypha never corrupted to begin with? I thought Amakusa was summoned instead of Angra in that timeline?
It's an essential charm for any traveler seeking safe passage across the rolling fields of Ireland.
Do we no longer count "dying like a bitch" as a meaningful action?
Spooky Eyes of Bad Vibe Detection
They're getting better and better as they go along—at this rate, after they finish FGO, they'll have figured out how to write FGO!
I think the 300% thing was alluding to "++" meaning "momentarily triple in output" (from CM3), not to FGO gameplay mechanics.
If you'd asked me before 2015 what the absolute worst genre/scenario for Narita to write would be, I'd have said a finite, self-contained scenario where most of the characters involved are expected...
Well, we have the bad ending versus Berserker where she uses it but fails to deal fatal damage because she doesn't have enough magical energy. So there are definitely "lesser Excaliblasts" and...
My bad, I misremembered. In that case, I think a slightly deeper analysis is in order:
Fate:
Let's assume that the magical energy Saber expends skirmishing with Lancer, Assassin and Rider in the...
The context of Rin Saber only being able to Excaliblast once was Rin lending most of her magical energy to Shirou so that he could cast UBW.
I'd never considered it before, but FGO with Romani as the protagonist actually sounds like a really interesting proposition.
