[FGO JP Main Chapter] Lostbelt 7: Nahui Mictlan ~ The One Who Rules the Planet

[Kirishima]

I can't believe Nasu is selling me Arcueid again with Kukulkan and I like it. How does he keep getting away with this.

[mami-kouga]

Maybe because its mainly centered in memes about thanking him for giving Alters?
The Nito ship may carry him though, weird ships can sometimes have staying power.

No that's definitely not it anymore

Of course, this is Fans of Guys are Oppressed we're talking about. Has there been a dude who wasn't initially planned as playable who became so since Muramasa (and even that's arguable)?

Ask Takeuchi lol.

Are we collectively forgetting that Nobukatsu exists?

Are we also forgetting Sannan exists? He came just last year?

[Rafflesiac]

...okay I'm dumb.

Fucking Yamanami I never liked that guy anyways

[mami-kouga]

He's unbelievably wishy washy to the max but he's pretty so I'll forgive half his sins

[Comun]

His attack animations are the only ones that do a blood swing before sheathing the katana and that makes up for everything.

[Taran]

I more or less understand what happened in LB7 now

Some questions

Whats Daybits relationship with the other crypters (specifically Kirsch and Pepe did they know his goals)

How much did Kirschtaria really know about chaldea (e.g Marisbury goals, Daybit, sirius light, the alien god etc)

EDIT Also does Ritsuka actually beat Daybit does he lose to circumstances being against him like Kirsch

The wait certainly made it feel like Shirou wasn't planned. Sure, I think datamine had Calamity Jane forever, but it stills feels weird how long it took for him to release compared to other FSN characters. They even kept the ce design, although that one is great so no complaints although I'm still a bit disappointed he didn't release with a FSN costume or the jacket from the anime. Would've been very nice to have such an outfit.

Whose Yamanami's?

[TomPen94]

That Camazotz theme hits so hard, wtf man.

[VTKajin]

Nah, I would expect that Dantes is Summer and Antarctica is November/December.

Even with the collab story being main story relevant this has never impacted main story chapters before. For example Scramble didn't push Heian Kyo away/count as a bi-annual chapter. Ooku didn't teleport LB4.

They haven't touched Beast V yet and I got the impression from Gil's speech on the Beasts that we'll tick the list off before facing the real VII.

Fair point, actually. I guess I was thinking about Tunguska. I'm still waiting to see what the next chapter is, but we should find out around June. Hopefully it's the Dantes one.

Camazotz I feel will probably be playable in some form eventually. It would be conspicuous if he never made the jump. But I am lowkey afraid Arcade will get him first lmao.

Whose Yamanami's?

[Delastogos]

How is Kuku written in this chapter? Is she just Quetz 2.0 or did they aim the Genki Girl thing in another direction?

[Kirishima]

She is Arcueid

[Kubera]

To think people were saying there was no way Arcueid would appear in LB7. Jokes on you, there are two of them.

[ResidentSeagull]

Camazotz' status has nothing to do with racial identity and they pretty much default to "cream anime skin" for almost every ethnicity. Asians? Greeks who should be olive/tan? Gilgamesh? Tezca+Quetz? "These all same"

Not saying it's good decision making or design, but it isn't racially motivated as their own ethnicity is not represented accurately or even differently to other regions beyond clothes.

I still have no idea what thought process they went through with Karna.

[Stoker]

Nasu making dinosaur fanfiction of his characters is peak fiction.

Welcome to Fantasy Island. Dinosaur sex?

...Man, just realized that the ORT fight in LB7 is intentionally a direct callback to Tiamat in Babylonia

Spoiler:

-Unstoppable monster who visibly moves across the map as we do anything we can to slow them down
-When they awaken, new life forms emerge and the environment itself changes
-They both have name changes - Babylonia to Mesopotamia, and Nahui Mictlān becomes ORT Xibalba
-We lead them into a trap set by Ereshkigal (though unfortunately it completely fails with ORT ;_; )
-They're both effectively immortal at the start, and someone imprints the concept of death onto them - Beni was even taught how by KH, the one who did it to Tiamat.

Dammit Nasu really went ahead and made Babylonia 2.0 lol

[asterism42]

I still have no idea what thought process they went through with Karna.

Karna is a bad example, he's very easy to read as albino

[ResidentSeagull]

Fair enough, although I once heard a crackpot theory that he's so pale because of his armor, which prevented the Sun's rays from ever touching his skin or something along those lines.

Mind you, crackpot theory.

Especially because many albino South Asians have red hair.
