Guest Wandering_Moth Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) As this is a Grail war where killing isn't necessary do you think Chu Chulainn's survival would add more to the story? Wait a minute, what are the non-lethal win conditions for engagements then? How does the Grail store enough power to grant a wish? Do seven Servants still need to die? Why am I demanding a porno version of Chaos Theory?!? Edited July 19, 2016 by Wandering_Moth Quote
VotedforKodos Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 Probably Cu surviving could add more, especially if Heroic Spirits he's acquainted with, like Medb or Scathach, show up. Non-lethal win conditions...well, probably surrender. Anything else, not sure, and how the Grail stores power, no idea. Quote
Guest Wandering_Moth Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 Guess the Grail just runs on rampant hormones then, just look at what it did to Calamity Jane! ...And that is the last we will ever speak of her. Quote
Guest Wandering_Moth Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) Chu Chulainn would be that cool big brother that gets into fights for no good reason and raid your candy stash. I'd like to think that he adds enough on his own, but past relationships can't hurt, I guess. Edited July 19, 2016 by Wandering_Moth Quote
VotedforKodos Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 I mean...I guess part of why I feel like the extra drama from past relationships is useful is because Cu Chulainn is just a cool guy. Like, on his own, given freedom to choose, yeah, he'd want to get into a bunch of awesome fights in the Grail War, but he'd also recognize when things are bad and say "Okay, now I have to try and stop that," and wind up helping the protagonists. Granted that being stuck with Kirei restricts what he'll be allowed to do, but that just piles more problems, in that he'd probably spend most of the War lounging around the Church. The other issue is just pure ability. Remember, Cu Chulainn is a guy who, against Berserker Hercules, fighting at full strength, has "some chance of victory," and who held GIlgamesh back for half a day in Fate, even though Gilgamesh has Enkidu, which gives him a huge advantage against a demigod like Cu. Using Cu Chulainn in a story is a delicate thing. Quote
warellis Posted July 20, 2016 Report Posted July 20, 2016 I forget, did Medb ever have relations with Diarmuid? As for Artoria Alter Lancer, I get the feeling if Shirou ever ran into her here, he'd be experiencing "punishment" via her chest at some point. Or pretty fast. Quote
VotedforKodos Posted July 20, 2016 Report Posted July 20, 2016 No, Diarmuid is part of the Fenian Cycle in Irish myth, and Medb is part of the Ulster Cycle, which took place earlier. Quote
warellis Posted July 20, 2016 Report Posted July 20, 2016 Ahh Well Yorimitsu's Mad Enhancement description has been translated. Pretty interesting: Mad Enhancement: EXA Skill that strengthens physical abilities in exchange of reason.In Raikou's case, she does not lose her reason and remains as her original intellectual self. However, with the impurity of the oni's blood, said mentality became morally broken due the manifestation of an bizarre maternal love (she would eliminate anything for the sake of her beloved, attempting to protect him in a fanatic manner).While talking of a proper love, she loses sight of social morals when it is for the sake of love, approving all sorts of deeds.. in other words, she is mentally ill.She distinguish herself from other Berserkers due to not letting others perceive how broken she is at all.Fundamentally, it is impossible to persuade, make her correct her ways.

Guest swordcommandos Posted July 21, 2016 Report Posted July 21, 2016 Looking at Yorimitsu it seems the artist is the guy making those kinky mahou shoujo doujins Quote
VotedforKodos Posted July 22, 2016 Report Posted July 22, 2016 Yeah, Raita, same artist as Shuten, too. Quote
warellis Posted July 22, 2016 Report Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) Yorimitsu has an incredible body, combined with that tight bodysuit of hers. Kind of makes me imagine her bending over you in that tight bodysuit of hers, her breasts hanging just inches/centimeters over your face. Edited July 22, 2016 by warellis Quote
Guest Wandering_Moth Posted July 22, 2016 Report Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) Latest news on the Camelot event coming out on the 25th. Also jackal girl is apparently Nitocris. Odd choice. Edited July 22, 2016 by Wandering_Moth Quote

Well one Raita's mahou shoujo character in the doujinshi looks all most exactly like her. So you could try researching those materials. Quote

Odd choice. She could be like Sasaki in the sense of being someone that didn't exist I guess? Edited July 22, 2016 by warellis Quote
VotedforKodos Posted July 23, 2016 Report Posted July 23, 2016 Honestly, I would say unless it comes up specifically in her profile or something, the question of existence isn't even worth bringing up. The "real or not" issue with Servants is an absolute fucking mess, considering all the retcons and shit that have come out. For example, original FSN, Sasaki is a fake, Medusa and Hercules, totally real. Later materials come out, no, some Heroic Spirits like Medusa and Hercules never actually existed, but humanity believed in them and their stories so hard that they came into existence, while Sasaki, despite not being Sasaki, was really the spirit of some dude who could use Tsubame Gaeshi and was therefore "close enough" to be summoned as Sasaki Kojirou. So to be clear, a complete flip-flop from "Sasaki isn't real, Medusa and Hercules are" to "Sasaki wasn't Sasaki but he was totally a real guy, and Medusa and Hercules never really existed, people just made them up". There's a reason I take most TM lore with not just a grain, but an entire shaker of salt. Quote
warellis Posted July 23, 2016 Report Posted July 23, 2016 I can understand that. Any images of Nitocris out yet? Like ascension images and such? Hm would an oni like Shuten be the type to try to steal away Shirou since IIRC they were often noted in legend as stealing away victims? Quote
VotedforKodos Posted July 24, 2016 Report Posted July 24, 2016 The update adding Camelot isn't until the 25th, so the only images are still the stuff from the commercial and the first card image. Quote
Guest Wandering_Moth Posted July 25, 2016 Report Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) Should be around that time now. EDIT: Please post your findings here, don't keep it to yourself. Edited July 25, 2016 by Wandering_Moth Quote

VotedforKodos Posted July 25, 2016 Report Posted July 25, 2016 Not as far as I've heard. Also, new link with ascension art for apparently all the new Servants. Quote
Guest Wandering_Moth Posted July 25, 2016 Report Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) You know, I'm kinda disappointed that we won't be seeing Lancer Arturia in this fic. Though she could appear in an omake if Ichasennin is feeling generous. Any fluff regarding her that anybody was insane enough to translate in this short span of time out yet?In other news this has got to be the ugliest car I've ever seen.

warellis Posted July 25, 2016 Report Posted July 25, 2016 Is it just me or do Arturia Lancer's breasts look not as big as Arturia Lancer Alter? As for Nitocris, her breasts seem tonget bigger in her 3rd ascension artwork. Quote
