Gilgamesh has come so far from his "LOL WOMEN AND CHILDREN" days. He truly is the best king.

I've come to the conclusion that Gil is a universe-class tsundere. His "b-baka" is using Ea.
GO is just his dere phase.

I think even Nasu slowly changed his vision on the character of Gil over time. Gil was never shown to be like this in the original VN sources.

I know, that's why I talked about people that never read fgo.

Okay, let's take a look at the new Servant's My Room lines.

Medusa Lancer's My Room highlights:
Disliked things: While swimming in the sea, seaweed gets entangled around your feet. I am not good with that. I particularly dislike seaweed.

Well played, Nasu. At first i overlooked it, then it suddenly clicked and lols were had.

Noble Phantasm Card: I won't kill you gently.

Nice call back.

Enkidu's My Room highlights:
Ah... she is here too. Now then... is there anything around here that I can throw at her...? (When you have: Ishtar)



Jaguar Man's My Room highlights:
Ascension 1: To be honest there's not meowch change~? Shut yer mouth!

Okay, Taiga >_>

Bond 2: You've been working furry hard, Master. As a reward, I'll stick this Jaguar Stamp on you! Meow!

*taiga dojo stamps ptsd intensfies*

That dark skinned Archer-kun who gives off vibes of shades of gray... hm, I think he wasn't like this before, meow... somehow I feel responsible... (When you have: EMIYA)



Disliked things: The Jaguar Man's weakness, that would be a fellow feline which is a lion, that's a bit... huh, I see a vision of a strange creature holding a manga-like stick of meat...

Natural enemy Saber Lion confirmed?

Yes plz.Make Saber Lion a Servant. This will give a certain someone aneurysm.

Btw Astro, remember the talk we had about the art book of Extella and if it will have translated material?

Marvelous updated their desciption:
"Marvelous Europe today announces that Fate/EXTELLA: The Umbral Star, the highly-anticipated cation title set within the much-beloved Fate universe, will release in Europe on January 20th 2017 for the PlayStation®4 and the PlayStation®Vita. Alongside the standard release, a limited production of the European exclusive Moon Crux Edition bundle containing 7.5” by 6.3” hardcover art book featuring over 100 pages of high-quality artwork and backstory from Fate/EXTELLA: The Umbral Star."

I told them that this was the first time I saw that part and if it meant that we will be getting a translation of the material.

This is the first time I saw "backstory" in the description of the art book.Does that mean we get a translation of the material book of the Japanese version?


Marvelous said:
Yes the art book features localised content from the Japanese art book.


Before the hype intensifies , I hope that doesnt mean "the few japanese in the artworks are translated".

Well, the word "backstory" is kinda meaningless if they don't specify the ratio of artwork-to-text in the book. I'm still skeptical as you are.

Huh, perhaps it is the temperament of a girl who has lost her father at a young age that has rehabilitated the useless goddess. Fate, it truly is a well-made fabric. (When you have: Ishtar)

I don't know if i should respect the complement to Rin or hate his guts for being the reason she's fatherless.

To be fair her father was pretty trash himself and he was also planning to order Gilgamesh to kill himself with a command seal, so Gil really didn't have any other option. Plus Kirei is the main reason he's dead anyway.

Tokiomi wasn't really father of the year, but does it justify orphaning a little girl?
Also, are you telling me Gil doesn't have something akin to Rule Breaker in his treasury?

Gil didn't really "have" to do anything. Tokiomi was the man who blindly trusted Kirei, taught him magic and entrusted him with his daughter, and even if he may not be Kirei's father or wife, Gil figured that he'll do just fine for that push into Kirei's inevitable path.

I'm not saying that Kirei wouldn't have discovered his true calling if it weren't for Gil. It's just that Gil ensured that Tokiomi would be a victim of that.

Gather round friends, it's gacha story time with Gen again!

So today a fellow staff called in sick and I was asked to replace her tonight, bummer because I was really looking forward to relaxing and playing FGO at home.

Fast forward, tonight sucked, everyone was assholes and I was super depressed by it. Luckily my brother was around to keep me a little jovial (yes we work the same job).

As we closed shop I finally had time to do some rolls. I told my brother about how I wanted oneesama and if he'd like to do the honors of the first 10 roll and...

My turn for storytime!

Today was another school day, which means waking up super early in the morning which I fking hate. I always eat a quick breakfast before going though and I took that time to boot up F/GO on my Okita account. Seeing that the Babylon Part 2 gacha was out, I thought "Why not roll just once. Only ONCE though. One ticket. And that's it."

So I did roll only once. I expected to get shit and I was fine with that because I never really cared about anything in this gacha. But the rolling animation starts. It starts spinning with a rainbow aura.

"Oh shit.. don't tell me.."

In short without boring you with the details?
Que is amazing for burst damage. NPBB damage is godly.
Ozy is still better because of his team synergy.
Que is pretty much the J.Alter of Riders.

It's like comparing Nero Bride with Okita. Nero is good for team support while Okita just wreck shit.

Should you roll for her? If your boner is hard for Merlin and King Hassan, skip her. Do you need a hard hitting ST Rider? Skip her if you have Ozy or you're okay with Rider Brotoki.

Do you love clumsy oneesan types, wrestling, birds, flame and shit? Try.

I've already went past getting salty when I got Ishtar so any bad rolls from me and good rolls from anyone else doesn't affect me anymore. I've already gotten most of the Servants I wanted when the game began anyways so I've somewhat reached enlightenment. Now if Ereshkigal comes though, I may snap out of it and be salty when I don't get her.

Take Arash or any first turn aoe servant to Camelot: the 20AP quest ABOVE Ozy's pyramid. With the Archer and Caster mobs. Aoe nuke the first 3 books, if they drop a gold chest/page, finish the quest with your team. If they don't, leave and re-enter.

#Gildidnothingwrong

I dont remember what he said during the LN Banquet of Kings, but after Babylonia his lines in the anime seem to be out of pity(unlike what Rider says) for someone that tries hard for her people but cant understand them.Which results in doing a crappy job.
Add to that his lines about the two kinds of dreamers.


Imagine reactions in threads discussing who is the better king, full of people that never touched fgo, when we say Gil>others.

Does anyone actually think that Gil is the better king just after the BoK?

At least Gil's demeanour gives off a widely different impression in that scene. Add to that what he says and does in F/SN.
I think even Nasu slowly changed his vision on the character of Gil over time. Gil was never shown to be like this in the original VN sources.



Frostbite_ said:


pretty much
I mean in F/SN he was an arrogant prick, then he turned into an arrogant prick with motives in Zero.
(Haven't played anything else yet except for GO and am not at Babylon there, so the rest is just what I've heard)
then they focussed on the fact that he apparently knows the mysteries of the universe in extra and turned him into a great king in GO.



You guys, I'm disappointed.

Gilgamesh becoming a wise king after Enkidu's death was *always* part of his legend, of the epic of Gilgamesh.

What Andersen says about him briniging his own city to chaos in CCC still stands though, his Archer self truly represents his completely immature douchebag self after all, Enkidu's whole reason to exist was because Uruk's people were praying to the gods asking for something to be done to their king because he was completely insufferable. After Enkidu's death, Gilgamesh gets crazy and abandoned his kingdom in order to earch for immortality, when he cames back after going through character development, his kingdom is in shambles, then he begins to rebuild it..

Seriously, try reading some history before claiming that Gil's F/SN self is "retconned" or that Nasu changed Gil based on nothing or something like that. Btw @Frostbite, Gil was an "arrogant pricks with motives" even in F/SN, F/Z literary changed nothing about him.

You tell me when CCC has Andersen (who has Human Observation A as a skill) say he was a bad ruler and has Gilgamesh agreeing with him.
