>>124341018

誇り高く、理性的な戦士。しかし、どこか「空虚」を感じさせる。その剣に迷いはなく、戦闘時には猛烈な戦いぶりを見せる。かつての彼女の戦場は、大陸の半分にも及んだという。

"Proud & intelligent warrior. However, somewhere I feel "emptiness". Not lost to the sword, I show a ferocious fight the first time in battle. Former girlfriend of the battlefield(?), that ranged more than half of the continent."

Nahh but here have a Emperor Caligula.

>>124341520
Yeah but that one was easy, because he specifically referenced familial relation to Nero.
This one is abstract as fuck.

>>124340608
Who the fuck put a rainbow lightsaber in her hands? That looks fucking awful.

The sword doesn't really fit Atilla or Genghis and the personality doesn't gel with Charlemagne. It's possible she's like, Khutulun or some shit.

>>124341670
>Who the fuck put a rainbow lightsaber in her hands?
Huke.

>>124341680
>The sword doesn't really fit Atilla or Genghis
Hey, you don't know what the Sword of Mars looked like, for all you could know, it could've been a multicolor rainbow lightsaber.

>>124341670
>>124341693
Yeah it's pretty fucking cooked. It's why I'm thinking she's an avatar of a war god or something, rather than an actual historical figure.
I'm thinking along the lines of Karna etc.

>>124341693
Huke's weapon designs are fucking ridiculous.

Could be a valkyrie or similar? Like Brynhildr. Might explain the otherworldly-ish appearance, possibly rainbow sword and being married to the battlefield.

>>124341795
Alternately skin color/manner of dress might be someone like Dido?

>>124341795
>Brynhildr
Isn't she Lancer in fragments?

>>124341795
Maybe, but I don't know of any valkyrie that were "killing machines" or that used rainbows/lightsabers

>>124341944
I just picked a valkyrie at random, wasn't specifically guessing Brynhildr.

>>124340608
She has autism voice so probably never had to lead any high number of people.

>>124342005
>Who is Saber

>>124342080
Brynhildr

What's with these Fate releases anyways? There's way more Fate releases than evangelion releases. The company is milking the name rather than moving on to different titles.

Fate/Stay Night
Fate/Etcetera
Fate Heaven's Feelies
Fate/Zero
Fate/Grand Order
Fate/Toothpick
Fate/Chair
Fate/Sofa
Fate/Automobile Exhaust

When will the Fate releases end?

>Current popular theories are Charlemagne, Attila the Hun, Genghis Khan, & Boudica.
Please let it be Boudicea. I have seen enough genderbent historical Fate figures by now. It looks more like something Near Eastern for me, but the character designs are pretty random in most cases so it could be anything.

>>124342287
Not sure about that weapon... Its translucent, but it seems like a solid thing, like glass or crystal.

>>124342206
Please no.

>>124342287
I'm thinking Indian at this stage.

>>124342287
She kinda reminds me of Isthar, probably because of the battle and war fanatism and the skin color. Too bad no goddesses allowed.

>>124342323
Knowing Nasu it's probably not actually a sword in history. It'll be something like a fucking jeweled ring or something.

>>124342287
Her design certainly implies Atilla to me.
Then again Elizabeth Bathory wasn't a demonic pop idol so what the fuck do I know?

>>124342287

Charlemagne

"Joyeuse, King Charlemagne’s legendary sword, was said to change colors 30 times every day, and was so bright it outshone the sun."

>>124342541
How does the design imply Attila?

She's probably a fucking golem or something. Some well-known fake human or something.

>>124342377
>Indian
If she's using a bow i would say it's Arjuna considering he actually got cursed into a girl once.

>>124342580
Any rainbow swords?

Marking on her chest and weapon. Green, red, blue.
Could the colors be a hint to anything? Chest thing kinda looks like a flag or something

>>124342731
Nah, the closest thing he have to a legendary sword is the Vajra.

>>124342731
There are a few Native American and Pre-Columbian myths surrounding rainbows, I guess? We could be looking at Montezuma.

>>124342831
Any sort of connection to Quetzlcoatl would probably be good for the fucking rainbow sword.

Think the snowy weather could mean anything?

>>124342931
Fuck Montezuma thought Cortez was Quetzlcoatl, then Cortez slaughtered everyone
Pls not another genderbent historical figure

>>124342966
Honestly just makes me think Northern Europe

What empires have ever actually held half a continent aside from the Huns?

>>124343173
The Mongols.

>>124343173
>>124343223
God I fucking hope it's not Attila or a Khan

>>124342966

a valkyrie??

>>124343240
One of the Mongol queens might not be too bad?

>>124343272
We'd still need them to meet the requirements of being skilled with a sword, being a killing machine, and some vague connections to a rainbow sword?

Could it be persian? The Persians had a huge empire during their time, and the skin looks about right?

>>124340608
That looks fucking awful

>red eyes
>white hair
BORIIIIIIINNGGGGGGGGGGG

>>124340608

>killing machine
>battle is still going

maybe a valkyrie, could be Brynhildr?

Maybe Artemisia?
She fought under xerxes in the battle of salamis and xerxes asked her opinion on many war based decisions. So smart...?

She looks like something non-human.

>rainbow sword

It's totally Caladbolg. At best she's Queen Medb.

>>124340608
That outfit of her's gives me a native american vibe. Probably someone from north or south america.

>>124340608
Gonna guess she's wielding the Claíomh Solais, "The Sword of Light". In which case she's probaby one of the three daughters from one of the stories in "Popular Tales of the West Highlands" about the widow and her daughters. Probably the one who cut off the guy's head.

>It was said to be a two-handed sword that made a circle like an arc of rainbow when swung, and to have the power to slice the tops off hills and slaughter an entire host.

>>124344311
Doesn't look like the type to be killed with a piece of cheese

Plus, we've already seen Caladbolg in the Fate universe.

>>124344780
>Plus, we've already seen Caladbolg in the Fate universe.

I'm going to bet they could totally ignore that.

>>124344311
When did she conquer half of a continent? Or maybe the translation is fucked up.

>>124344685

this guy did know Cuchulainn so I wouldn't be surprised if it was him gender bent however it says when he fought lancer that he already had his sword stolen my queen medb

>>124341680
>>124341735
The Sword of Mars is sometimes considered to be Joyeuse, and that one was like a rainbow.

The fucking sword has to be a Noble Phantasm, it's too flashy to be a normal sword.

>>124340608
Lets come at this another way. We keep saying "rainbow" but the sword only has 3 colors and they're out of order for a rainbow, plus the blade seems more like glass.

So anyone know any weird multicolor glass... things?

>Saber
>not a Saber clone
How?

>>124345672
>Huke
>not Takeuchi

>>124345672
I know, right? Makes me fucking happy.
Huke >>>>>>> shit > Arturia > Takeuchi

>>124345644
Well if it isn't a rainbow then what does it represent? Elements? Any sword users who had strong affinity with the nature or some shit?

>>124345644
It has to be divine in origin.
I swear to God the actual identity better be satisfying.

I was gonna tell you you're fucking terrible at translating, but then it turned out it's Google Translate.

Really hoping we see Cleopatra in this.

What class would she most likely be?
Assuming Rider.

Yeah, she did ride Mark Antony all right.

Strange Fake manga is awesome.

Possibilities

Caladbolg
It was said to be a two-handed sword that made a circle like an arc of rainbow when swung, and to have the power to slice the tops off hills and slaughter an entire host.
>rainbow

Joyeuse, or possibly the Sword of Mars
>lots of colors

Caesar's sword Crocea Mors
Crocea Mors (Latin for "Yellow Death") was the name given to Julius Caesar's sword, according to the legends presented by Geoffrey of Monmouth. In Middle Welsh versions, it is called Angau Coch ("Red Death") or Agheu Glas ("Grey Death").
>exactly three different colors

Claíomh Solais
>literally the sword of light

>>124345965
It's not particularly wrong, just awkward English syntax.

>>124345488
You think? It's possible the girl is even a Servant.

>>124346561
The point is, for it to be an NP, it'd have to be known. Unless it's another Ea. So there must be some sword out there that fits the description.

>>124346619
Hi, Yvain or Richard the Lionheart.

>>124346657
If Zabaniya can be a Noble Phantasm so can anything really.

>>124346736
>Richard the Lionheart
Don't we already have him, or am I getting confused with the Servants /tg/ statted up?

>>124346619
Now that I think of it, this Strange Fake Saber is also a Saber that is not a Saber clone.

How many of those we have? This new girl in GO, this one in Strange Fake and Siegfried?

>>124346791
No, we don't have it. Also, this guy seems to have a new Excalibur variant.

>>124346561
>It's not particularly wrong, just awkward English syntax.
>理性的 as intelligent (actually it's "calm and rational")
>剣に迷いはなく as Not lost to the sword (actually it's "has no doubts about [wielding] the sword" or "doesn't waver with the sword")
>戦闘時 as first time in battle (actually just "during battles")
>彼女の戦場 as girlfriend of the battlefield (actually just "her battlefield")

Please.

>>124346791
>Don't we already have him
Nope.

>>124346826
And that makes how many versions?

>>124346872
Excalibur, Excalibur Proto, Excalibur Image, Excalibur Galatine and this Excalibur XXXX.

>>124346774
The idea of Zabaniya is based on the 19 muslim angels of death who are the lackeys of the lord of hell.

It's 100% not someone white based upon their atire and delicious brown skin.

I want to say it's some mongolian because their get-up and rainbow shit reminds me of "Kubla-Khan" and imagery of Xanadu.

If they do refer to themselves as a killing machine, a Khan makes perfect sense.

>>124346988
Exactly.

>>124346792

>>124346164
Some of the mythical heroes don't exist either.

>>124342287
>implying this chocolate goddess is somehow a used-good ginger rape-victim cuck who completely jobbed to the Romans

Try again. Boudica's non-virgins status make her non-waifu material so the odds are heavily against her ever becoming a servant.

>>124346164
They existed before the Age of Man began and humanity's texture covered the world.

>>124347157
You could say the same about Elizabeth Bathory and see how things are.

Is the Saber class exclusively for sword users? What class would a hero who only ever used a hammer or axe be, for example? Is the system retarded enough so that heroes would be SoL unless they had another distinguishing characteristic that made them fit as assassin or rider or whatever?

>>124347157
>non-virgins status make her non-waifu material so the odds are heavily against her ever becoming a servant.

Like Nero?

>>124347266
It's only an approximation.

>>124346529
Damn, I really hope somebody will translate it.

>>124347206
>You could say the same about Elizabeth Bathory

No I couldn't.

They made her a demon-loli with pink hair in a zany spin-off game.

>>124347157
Say that to Nero, Tamamo or Bathory.

>>124347343
And this is a spin-off game too.

>>124347297
>Like Nero?

having a neck-beard emperor with mental problems who fucked tons of bitches, boys, and traps turn into a QT teenage girl is different from having a female rape-victim whore jobber stay a female rape-victim whore jobber.

>And this is a spin-off game too.

>>124347490
Boudica and her daughters were beaten and raped and sent like beggars from their kingdom.

>>124347427
But the QT teenage girl still fucked tons of bitches, boys, and traps.

>>124347512
She did, islands retained during more time more magical creatures and overall AoG things.

>>124347490
I thought she was too? either way, it's clearly not her. I know the nips working on fate take all kinds of liberties with legends, but I doubt they'd make a celtic ginger brown with white hair.

also the rainbow shit has no basis on her story and she doesn't even have anything that could really work as a NP.

>>124347476
>more serious grounded that Extra
The plot is about a scientific-magical organization with Laplace Demons and heroic spirit summoning devices that travel back in time around seven grails to fix a temporal anomaly who will destroy the world in 2016.

Perhaps if you're changed from one gender to the other, but as far as Fate is concerned Nero was always a woman.

>>124347775
I have played Extra at least 5 times now.
I really can't say how "serious" Grand Order will be. Extra is pretty serious about the theme and the message of the game. Of course it has some stuff in it which isn't overly serious. Grand Order could be the same.

If Nero was such perfection why is her singing so horrible?

I'm really hoping she's South or Native American. The tribal-like designs would be fitting, along with her tan skin.

I doubt she's Hindu, swords are rare in Hinudism, it's all about bows there.

It's the "destroy half a continent" part that gets me. What legends have that? Anyone know?

>>124341334
Going by the Wiki:

She refers to herself as the Great King of Destruction who's battlefield in the past ranged over half a continent.

Attila also was said to have a sword given to him by Mars.Holy Sword of the Scythians or The Sword of God which is said to have made him the prince of the world.
For Attila, it wasn't just a sword, but also a sceptre meant to show off his right of rulership and symbol of divine favor.

The sword makes it rather obvious since that's exactly the type of shit you'd see in the Nasuverse. Random anecdotes means everything when designing Servants.

>>124350129
Not if it can only kill Divinity.

I think the most disappointing part about this is that we'll likely never get Charlemagne if she's Attila because she already has his sword. I don't know why they didn't just make her a Rider instead.

Or maybe they chose her exactly because she can also be Rider, so they can have a Rider version as an UR card or something.

It is just practical and common sense for a nomadic warrior to prefer bow and arrows over a sword.

Yeah, Drake is actually the best genderbent in Fate because it really was a fact that the Queen of England at the time never ever showed her real face in public due to all the facial scars she got from smallpox and only a few members of her inner circle ever got to see her real face so if she ever stepped out in public with her real face, no one would recognize that she was the Queen.

Aozaki Touko: 20 Magic Circuits. She is the first in the history of her family with so much Magic Circuits. Her parents had none whatsoever and it has been implied that her sister does not have much more than them.
Araya Souren: 30 Magic Circuits.
Cornelius Alba: Unknown. Implied to have more than both Tohko and Araya.
Emiya Shirou: 27 Magic Circuits. Each Circuit can barely handle 10 units of prana while being damaged in the process. Considering the amount that he has, such low quality of Magic Circuit is inconsistent.
Tohsaka Rin: 40 inborn Magic Circuits. Thaumaturgical Crest has the equivalent of 60 Circuits, divided into two sets of 30 sub-Circuits. Maximum output is of 1000 units of prana with the help of the Crest, which means that each individual Circuit can handle about 10 units.
Ciel: 100 times the amount of a magus. (About 2,500?) Exact number is uncertain due to differences in the standards of the sources in question, but she is definitely on Servant-level.

Number of magic circuits does not directly equate to how powerful a person is. Aoko has one in total, and she's more powerful than most of the people in the universe itself.

Discussing how Shirou can have so many circuits isn't the same as discussing HOW POWERFUL he is. He has so many circuits because he's turning his own body into a circuit by heretical methods due to ignorance.

>>124352659
Magic circuits in MB gameplay terms don't really match up with magic circuits as an actual thing in the Nasuverse. Arcuied, for example, doesn't even canonically HAVE magic circuits, she has something called "Regression to the Age of Gods" instead.

>>124352817
Aoko has the Fifth Magic, but it's really not useful at all. She only has one Magic Circuit and very little Od, but her single Magic Circuit surpasses the quality of Roa's and she's running on nearly impossible Od efficiency which she uses to shoot big lasers and such. Kouma is EXTREMELY strong, that is, he can fight with Servants strong, and he has the most ancient Kishu ability of all, fire generation and slight manipulation of flame. Barthomeloi is an expert, extremely powerful mage. Kojirou is a shitty Servant, but still a Servant. Ciel is almost equal in strength to Kouma, but faster than him, and she has powerful magical potential that she exploits with the Black Keys and the Seventh Holy Scripture. Nasu has said that "Ryougi Shiki" is basically equal to Ciel. Soren Araya has superhuman strength and speed as well as extremely powerful Magecraft.

Her route was ham-fisted. Shirou relationships in Heaven's Feel were rushed across the board. Suddenly, he got along swimmingly with Rin, Kirei, Saber. He picked up how to make a permanent magic circuit on his own. All the little tidbits about Servants came at a pace of "you've sat through this twice before, so there's no need to reintroduce you", and that ended up screwing over some important parts in the beginning. The only natural progression in HF route was Illya.

Nasu lost his ability not to punch people with plot. This is surprising when he had four other routes to Tsukihime, and only managed to punch people three times (ie: wtf happened to Arc & Nero in Far Side).

>>124353350
No way

>>124353611
>Suddenly, he got along swimmingly with Rin, Kirei, Saber.

>Rin
He got along with Rin just as well in HF as he did in Fate.

>Kirei
The Grail War was going to hell pretty much from the get-go. It only makes sense for Shirou and Rin to rely on the supervisor in this situation.

>Saber
He got along with her just fine in UBW. It helps for them to get along early on if Shirou doesn't get hung up on that "But Saber, you're a girl" thing.

If ANY route was ham-fisted, it would be Fate.

>>124353545
I don't think it is just the afterlife but a constant flux of life and death.

Nasu actually says there is no afterlife in the universe. You are immediately chucked into the cycle of reincarnation after death.

There is no such thing as chilling on top of a cloud and watching your favorite anime in the afterlife in the Nasuverse.

I think reaching the Root means you forsake all your ego, sense of sense, personality because you becomone something more than human.

You realize humans are just ants in this universe in the end and absorb the greater Truth of the universe.

>>124353611
The routes complement each other, that is how the game is written.

>>124354064
>There is no such thing as chilling on top of a cloud and watching your favorite anime in the afterlife in the Nasuverse.

I never meant it like that, I just meant that the Root is the ultimate fate of every soul after death. Except for Arturia's, anyway. I always assumed that truly reaching the Root, stepping through the door, is like crossing the event horizon of a black hole for your soul. The natural order of your soul returning to the Root to prepare for reincarnation takes over.

Though there's nothing to say that our two interpretations are necessarily mutually exclusive.

>>124353611
He got along with Rin and Saber the same as in the other routes.

And the whole revelation about Shirou and Kirei is that he never really hated him, he actually liked him but he did not want to accept it. The very first scene with Kotomine is called Alter Ego for a reason.

Why didn't Zouken just become a normal vampire?

At first because of his ideals probably. Then because he went insane.

instead of all the prequel and sequel movies coming out, they should start making equels - films shot in the same time period as the original film, but from an entirely different perspective

Attila a shit. Please don't be Attila.

>Charlemagne was wearing his fine white coat of mail and his helmet with gold-studded stones; by his side hung Joyeuse, and never was there a sword to match it; its colour changed thirty times a day.

Yeah, probably Charlemagne. How will they justify the gender-flip this time?

Pretty sure they're not pulling an Astolfo on us this time. As small as they are, I see tits, and I don't see any bulge in the crotch.

Maybe her graceful beauty is what inspired Astolfo to become a trans?

>>124340608
White hair and red eyes is the best shit ever.

>is what inspired Astolfo to become a trans?

Read the legend or Apoc; Astolfo once dressed up as a girl to give his depressed friend some good humor again, which is where that appearance derived from. Asotlfo despite his appearance still seems entirely(mostly) straight, or isn't actually trying to be a girl. He's that kind of trap.

>>124355960
Then to repeat >>124355674 's question, how will they justify the gender-flip this time?

>>124356044
People played up their rulers back in the day, saying they were descended from gods and twelve foot tall giants. You don't want to say your ruler was a four foot tall little girl, so people made them sound like a giant of a man instead.

History is always embarrassed by itself, embarrassed of ten year olds wielding beam-swords, so it changed the events to sound a little better.

There's usually some small "something" that allowed for history to remember the pieces wrong.

Arthur disguised her gender and had a penis, Nero dressed like a man all the time because she liked men's clothes, Drake wasn't really Drake, etc.

People get too much in a huff "How can they POSSIBLY justify it this time". TM in the first place didn't care too much about making the designs match up with history, they want to do their own thing using the legend as a basis. No matter where they want to take they design, they can make it work, and create the logic after.

>>124356268
Its always funny to see people getting pissy about gender bending as if its rampant when out over 50 servants last I counted, only like 6 were truly gender bent.

Incorrect about Shirou. His re-purposed nerves aren't any of his natural 27 circuits, and are makeshift/temporary. Also, what he did wasn't heretical, just incredibly stupid.

>>124356626
Personally, at this point I just want a male Servant whose historical or mythological basis is female.
