Fate/strange fake (Free-Range Spoilers)

If that's the case, does that mean Doris could have potentially chosen which stats to buff, or did she have no choice in the matter kind of like how switching Masters justs boosts stats without any choice on the part of the Master?

good question, I think it's latter.

We sculpt your spiritual bodies in a way that maximizes the flow of energy from Master to Servant.

So for alterations, it's based on sculpting the spiritual body in a way that optimizes the flow of magical energy to produce a certain stat up or extra skills.

However reinforcement

Since what’s being enhanced is the meaning of an object’s existence, using it on a knife will increase its sharpness, using it on food will increase its nutrition, and using it on a maid will increase her cuteness.
Of course, if an object’s purpose is too vague, it will be impossible to strengthen it.

Conceptually improves the circuits based on the magus's element attributes etc. So things are getting better, but only in a certain direction. Therefore, no choice.

[Bobin]

Maybe it’s because of the wording or lack of clarity, but strengthening magecraft seems like such a broad and indistinct field to be pursuing. Likely we’ll be learning more about the specifics from Doris soon though I suppose.

So does Domination magecraft. It's supposed to be a subset of Reinforcement magecraft or something? I dunno.

[Andyzero]

I'm reminded of two things.

Spoiler:

One was when Arcueid "died" in Melty Blood and became Archtype Earth; the "original intention of her incarnation."
And second is in the Castlevania novel that Narita wrote, Akumajō Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisoukyoku, a sequel to Dawn of Sorrow. Curtis Lang, a lesser vampire slayer, is shot by a gang of thugs, but then Death takes over his body.

[Glazy]

It seems like Nartia likes the hidden Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass trope but not for the good guys.

Given that I think it's what he uses to control the mud, I believe Baz's self-domination gives him absolute control of things in his body. Which is why he can reinforce himself so well.

[SirGauoftheSquareTable]

I thought that was Galvarosso's mistaken impression, and the only reason he can "control" the mud is because he's absolutely insane, at least by conventional standards, both magus and human.

Yes that's what they want you to think.

This is probably the case.

Aphrodite really sucks. She needs infinite death.

Hey, did OtherSideofSky ever make a EPUB for the forth volume?

I think I did, but if not, I hope to have updated epubs for 2, 3, and 4 with some spelling and grammar fixes, etc. ready soon.

I'll wait for the new versions then. Thanks for you excellent work!

[asterism42]

Yes that's what they want you to think.


This is probably the case.

While that's probably the case, I still think domination magecraft is basically saying 'body, do this' and your body being all 'OK boss'

Why, what's she done this time? The 'scheming goddess' from Hippolyta's backstory is Hera.

Yes, Hera thought the labor was too easy and basically spread the rumor that Heracles would kidnap Hippolyta. of course Amazons being Amazons wrecked shit and Heracles killed Hippolyta during the sheninegans

[Comun]

Maybe Takashi was synchretizing Aphrodite with Ishtar and blaming her for the shit Fillia is pulling.

[Takashi]

Naah it's because whims of goddess (the shitty Aphrodite) led to the death of the Amazon queen.
She is also behind the demise of Medea

[Takashi]

Nvm it's hera, my bad

[Gilgamesh_maximaster]

Hey OtherSide those INtros goes on the books after the first chapter or what? I'm a little confuse because I didn't see it on the first 4 volumes

[Comun]

The intro goes before the bridge chapter.

Has anyone else noticed the name Fillia is pretty much just F(ake)Ilya
フィリア Fillia
イリヤ Ilya
