Fate/Grand Order: Babylonia Anime

we still have serious Jaguarman

Fate/Grand Order: Babylonia Episode 17: The shockwave from Tiamat's scream was strong enough to push them back, wow.

Ishtar's Noble Phantasm looked so cool. I liked how they showed the planet being turned into a energy for the shot. I'm also confused. I thought after they destroyed the smaller body, the giant monster would come out, not a bad cgi larger body. Where's the giant monster?
This episode was mostly them planning out their next move, so the next episode should have them implementing their plan.

Every time Team Chaldea triggers a different boss phase she gets bigger

AHA! The thing that has been bothering the most about this adaptation has been finally revealed!

When the team trash talks Ishtar for losing Gugalanna, they give her a tablet which has a Japanese text on it! Why would Sumerian King Gilgamesh write in a foreign language!? Illuminati confirmed. 0/10 adaptation, shitanime. /s

OMG you're goddamn right. The entire series is ruined now, not by climax or production issue, BUT BECAUSE A TABLET THAT ONLY SHOW UP FOR FEW SEC! #shitanime #ufotakefatefromcloverA-1pls

[Comun]

That's called lore consistency.

[noname14]

Why do you people think the king who knows everything wouldn't know japanese
How disrespectful
Also, Ishtar's tablet has sumerian subtitles, how nice of her

[Deathhappens]

In the game after he did his big attack and lost his Grand saint graph, he helped with fighting the 11 Beast Bel Lahmus and then just gone from that point onwards. Even with his help the team still lack damage to finish her off before she climb out of the underworld so Gil rejoins the battle. They can either make him busy with those Lahmus (doubt it cuz it would just reduce his coolness despite those 11 are equivalent to 72 demon pillars and he's killing them without having his Grand saint graph) or let him stab Tiamat here and there with everyone.

It's just I'm picturing Gramps repeatedly stabbing one of Tiamat's toenails Monhun style and while the mental image is hilarious, I doubt it would do much for the show's ratings.

Because Gilgamesh didn't write it. Mash did, we see her holding something like a marker if you look closely

As for the next episode my hype Gramps moment expectations have been let down a bit, but I hope the running up Tiamat's body scene I imagined for their final fight with her does happen

The artist did mention that he had designs to be used such as using her horns as slides or running ontop of it to her head, so I'm expecting them to put that to good use.

I did saw some comments about her looking like either a god class Aragami from God Eater or MH.

despite having two out of three of the scenes I was most looking forwards to they kinda fucked up them both. kingu's sacrifice fell flat (should've had Prover as the Uruk gang song instead of Tell Me) and no gil/ishtar chat at all. hell, the enkidu death flashback they teased several times never actually got finished. now the impression is that he just died declaring himself a tool and gil never responded with his declaration which just blows.
pacing was pretty bad (REALLY should've ended with uruk drop) and due to the fast pace even bone daddy's speech sounded a bit too quick, like his words lacked gravitas.
what the fuck are they gonna do with 21? is it just gonna be a solomon hype episode? because I would've much rather had a complete babylonia product.

is there any word on who is directing 20/21?

What they changed was not having Kingu's bindings hold for an hour. But that's honestly forgivable, given the circumstances.

I would've preferred the hour+ stall because that made his sacrifice look the most effective of all the delay attempts

[Zork Knight]

Episode 21 will be Gudako and her whale team doing a Summer Event

[R.Lock]

And Halloween for the special OVA bundled with the last BD, right.

[Strange_One]

If anything, wouldn't Christmas be the best follow on to Babylonia?

The last of the vaguely timeline relevant events...

CCC and Kama Labyrinth?

I dunno about Enkidu being more effective than, what, three or four literal goddesses.

And yeah, everything from Merlin showing up to gramps was rushed. Merlin's whole Beast speech and then gramps all together was a rap battle or someshit.

delaying tiamat for an hour+ > delaying tiamat for about five minutes
seems more effective to me

[Rafflesiac]

Pandemonium Cetus could've used five more seconds, and the Merlin/King Hassan speeches moved almost too quickly for the subs. The insert song and the sound effects for Kingu's last moment sucked ass, holy shit.

Gil's great though.

[Bobin]

They're wrapping everything up to make way for the 1 hour long Solomon beach episode singularity or so it's been rumored

[Rafflesiac]

Oh right, they cut Taiga from the underworld.

Based as hell, 10/10.
