    Potential merging of two fictional character with similar names?

    I'd also be curious to see if this marks a departure from the other Faerie Knights in that it's just solely Britomart as a Servant and not say "Gawain" who was actually Barghest but also had the powers of Foul Weather.

    Although given what you guys have said, it probably will be a merger with the Goddess.

    Which if so would also suggest the character is probably a waifu under all that armour.
    The armor looks so cool that I would probably want them to stay in it all the time, regardless of what they looked like underneath it, haha.

    Important note: Type-Moon lore expert Barbara Walker said in her book that Britomart is Guinevere after Arthur's death.

    Somehow I’m not surprised she reached that conclusion given Guinevere’s name roughly translates to “White Faerie”.

    If the event is Sakurai's she'll absolutely be an Ayakaface under the armor. If it's Nasu's, she'll be a Shirouface.

    Given it's Fate, they were probably the same person
    That actually sounds...not so bad though?

    Funniest thing to me is how insanely much there is in terms of possible relationships and syncretism here (is actually guinevere, syncretized with a greek goddess, friends with arthur, allegorical equivalent of bradamante which ties her to charlemagne and the paladins (and merlin), allegory for Elizabeth I (Drake?), and very possibly being a "fairy" under that robot suit)

    But I'm almost certain this event story is literally just going to be ninja warrior

    Tbh I was kinda expecting this since it's not the first time they used Chaldea Radio Plus to tease content ffrom a future event. I'm pretty sure they'll do it again in the future to attract more people.

    I'm also on the opinion this must be Britomart because Artegall actually appears already on Himuro no Tenchi (Fate/School Life). Can't remember what chapter refers to him, but I remember him from the Himuten Mats, so TM lore researchers already know about Spencer's The Faerie Queene

    Btw, designs have a potential to be funny looking proportion-wise, what with the skinny legs.

    recent Mobile Suits (IBO and Mercury) have similar design.

    here's what Artegall looks like from Himu Ten.
