Fate/Grand Order General Discussion (CONTAINS SPOILERS)

[JetKinen]

What does the Moon Cell has to do with Mata Hari though

[mewarmo990]

To troll foreign players who do not have a full grasp of Japanese?

No no, that'd be me.

[You]

I would make a metathread discussing how much TM has jumped the shark, and that they have completely ignored so much old lore (sasaki being away from the gate, Jeanne looking the french grill in apocrypha she only got summoned into) or how Moon Cell didn't actually summon heroic spirits, so mata hari can't be one and how marie antoinette is complete horseshit, and how shit like Attila or Boudica got at all approved, and that this will probably reflect on the tsukihime remake a well

but looking at your waifus, I find myself reluctant

Well this Sasaki isn't tied down to the gate.
Jeanne's character design was in Zero.
Moon Cell's records were consistent with the throne of heroes.

[Seika]

magna uoluisse magnum? Yeah, that's what I was assumng. What's the Japanese say about it? I'm feeling insecure about my translation.

[Ratman]

What does the Moon Cell has to do with Mata Hari though

The cutoff period for heroic spirits is more in the 1700s or so. Moon Cell summons copies of famous people, which is why it could get away with shit like Li Shuwen.

Jack and Sasaki are also wraiths.

[mewarmo990]

I think I will probably take Latin sometime this coming year.

[Kirby]

The cutoff period for heroic spirits is more in the 1700s

1900s, actually

[Christemo]

The cutoff period for heroic spirits is more in the 1700

It has always been 1900, I dont see the big deal of letting people who were born before 1900, lived into the early 1900's but were still really famous go through.

[Ratman]

1900s, actually

Do you have a single fact to back that up?
Because I'm pretty sure 1700 was previously stated somewhere, as it is what we have been always going off.

[mewarmo990]

Not anymore, it isn't!

[You]

says exactly what you said.
Then says "in english it'd be 'deeds not words'"

[mewarmo990]

Because I'm pretty sure 1700 was previously stated somewhere

Then provide a source, with page number. because I can't remember either way.

Also re: Sasaki in FGO

Please level his relationship up and show us what it says, so we will know whether he is in fact a wraith this time.

(there is a "he's the famous swordsman, but....." ending in his initial bio blurb though)

[JetKinen]

The REAL jumping in the Shark is Zhuge Waver.

Did someone get him?

And with the passing of years ignored, the heroic spirits are summoned. The most recent from a hundred years ago, the oldest from the ancient days.
The seven heroic spirits obey each of the seven Masters, protect them, and eliminate the Masters of the enemy.
Heroes from every age and country are revived into the present day, to kill one another for supremacy.
That is why this ritual is called the Holy Grail War.

Huh. The 'deeds not words' English translation was throwing me off: I didn't see what relevance that had to what I thought the Latin said. Weird.

My friend got him on third roll.

SO JELLY

he's OK, not super great.

[LegalLoliLover]

No no, that'd be me.

How so?

[Seika]

Because I'm pretty sure 1700 was previously stated somewhere, as it is what we have been always going off.

Everyone has always used that bit from the Fate prologue. You're just misremembering the century.

[JetKinen]

My friend got him on third roll.

SO JELLY

Pls get his info or something.

I'm curious about everything about him.

Rin said the last ones were from a hundred years ago.
