She likes Hakuno and wants to help them. It's a nice capstone to her character arc.

Is Tuning connected to the musica universalis?

Been rereading Case Files to see if Tuning is ever mentioned alongside it, but it doesn't look like. While it would make sense to me, Melvin being a member of Valuay instead of Animusphere throws a bit of a wrench in that theory.

Is Tuning just a natural talent some magi have, then?

[Laserman]

Because they're different characters with different personalities.

What kind of a answer is that?

In addition to the above: taking Heaven's Feel into account, I'd wager it's because Kirei specifically wants Angra Mainyu to be born, while Gilgamesh only wants to release the mud.

To expand on what Spoony said: Illya would form a perfect vessel which could contain any amount of mud—the disaster wouldn't be released until someone made a wish. A lesser magus, on the other hand, wouldn't be able to contain the mud and it would leak out endlessly. Gil thinks mud leaking out endlessly is good, so he took out Illya's core (heart) and stuck it in a lesser magus so they would turn into the Grail instead. (That's also why Shinji mutated into that mountain of flesh—his body was growing in a futile effort to contain the mud.)

That explains it, thanks.

Tuning is anything to do with repairing magic crests and helping families implant them. Melvin tunes with music but that's a him thing.
If a magus used magical duct tape to repair magic crests that would also be "tuning."

Is Crimson Moon explicitly identified as the Type-Moon somewhere official? You see, I have this habit of reading things in order of release as much as possible and reviwing what lore I learned from them. After reading the short story Crimson Moon from Kegetsu Tohya (which I found rather confusing because I doubt anyone at the time would get what Crimson Moon is supossed to be without reading Notes and the Daily Message about him) and some interviews from the time I noticed that Crimson Moon is never called Type-Moon and when Nasu speaks of Type-Moon in interviews he refers to it as belonging to Notes. It's not like I am doubting they are the same entity but I just found it kinda weird how they never were explicitly identified as the same being.
On related note why does Type-Moon have a Knight Arm? I know that this is some ancient lore that most likely has no answer but it still bugged me very much when I read it.

[Ratman]

In Plus Period, among other places, and Notes, you're supposed to infer it from context of Arcueid's entire character. Try Archetype arcade in MBAA also. Nasu might be a bit embarassed about the whole TM being the name of company, so he avoids using 'Type', instead using 'Ultimate one of X'. As in, it pretty much does not get used outside of Notes. If you want it stated explicitly, try the Kagetsu Tohya infobit on him, which just says 'The Ultimate One'.

The Knight Arm bit is from Notes, he might not have it elsewhere. It's probably setting-related, considering he is supposed to be the penultimate enemy of humanity in Notes. You have to understand, Crimson Moon is a massive JoJo reference and will probably never appear in canon because of that. He fought Zelretch who is described as Jotaro kind of a character, has a thing called Rear of Za Warudo, and has Rainbow Eyes.

Oh yeah, and he has a buddy named Blackmore, as in Richie Blackmore.

Hm, I could see Nasu being embarrassed about it considering he seemed to be embarrassed about the term "Aristoteles" in one interview. And yeah, I noticed the Daily Message in Kagetsu Tohya calling him "The Ultimate One". That's why I said that somebody at time would need to read Notes and this Daily Message, the first to know what a Ultimate One is and the latter to know that he is one.

Are you implying that even if TsukiRe were released and FGO weren't a thing we still wouldn't get Tsukihime 2 because one of the main characters would be a DmC reference?

[Menwearpink]

Type Moon will only show up once he’s finished writing about everything and has a massive ARG to find out the finale of Type Moon in which he shows up as the true secret final boss that the readers have been built up to meet from all their reading and playing.

[Ratman]

I think we're getting Altrogue and the cool apostles like Gransurg eventually in one form or another, but Crimson Moon is just a background piece, like Zelretch, Makihisa, or most of Notes. Warc's lines in Melty where she presumes herself to be CM is as close to as we're ever going to get.

Of course, an official design that's not just Dio Brando would go a long way, but then you also kill the joke.

[Reign]

Remind me how Camelot ended, the Lion King is still alive right?

[Deathhappens]

We didn't kill her, but after the Singularity was resolved she should've been ret-gone out of existence (since she's supposed to be a possibility that never came true in "real" history). Who knows though.

[pinetree]

Yeah but she's not from the Singularity. Her and Bedi are from a different timeline.

Regardless, she probably died there anyway, no way to leave since she lost her godhood.

[Mattias]

With FGO Summer 3 coming up for NA, what excactly is the Moon Cancer Class? I was fine thinking it was the BB exclusive class (we already have Mash as the only Shielder) but then we get Jinako show up in a later Lostbelt. Has there been any word on what exactly make a Moon Cancer?

[Rafflesiac]

Watsonian: BB
Doylist: Nasu, $$$

[Reign]

BB shoved Jinako into it I think.
What I don't understand is how BB has any power at all outside the Moon Cell.

Gransurg's dead in Fate timelines so I don't think we're just going to get him.

now explain alt nagal buddy.

Tornados are cool?

Magic space camera can somehow edit its subjects. Because Nasu doesn't know how computers work.

[forumghost]

I mean the Moon Cell does come with a 3D Printer Attached (it's what Velber used to make the copy of Titan Altera it sent to earth) So I don't see why BB couldn't print off a copy of Jinako in a Moon Cancer Servant Body.

The theory being what, that BB printed out a Jinako and tossed her in the middle of the Lostbelt for the lulz, or that BB already knew that Ganesha was looking for someone to possess somehow and printed him out a Jinako body for the lulz?
