THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Looks like we have the characters exploring another city in the Fate Grand Order world. Ritsuka should be more careful not to get lost though. Anything could happen.

On another side note, I find his character chemistry with Ushiwakamaru kinda cute lol

I dont know but the "im not just a bland mc so this is my moment to get some deep talk" moments are getting kinda boring ... like with Ushi in this epidode. But dont mind that ... the "blonde Ishtar" thing is here and oh my :D some folks will get confused as shit with this until it gets explained xD

Also the old man moments, we saw 2 until now .. but they are hype as shit .. cant wait, cant wait.

Ushiwaka is such a cuty and Ishtar being tsundere is funny and cute. The fight against Isthar was great and lol Ana's eagerness to go to the mission was hilarious.

Watching Mash cry like that for Ritsuka was charming and Fou being brave while trying to protect Ritsuka was really cute.

The episode starts with Ushi and moments with Ritsuka. Gil gave them another quest, to find the tablet of destiny. So they embark to get it. But the city is ghost town. And then Ritsuka trapped in the underworld but saved by new character Ziusdra. Ishtar appears then got captured by Ritsuka, Mash, Ana and Merlin. And then the last scene with blonde Ishtar. To the next episode

They really are hyping up Ushiwakamaru :staph:

Yes Ana if you were older things would be a LOT FUCKING EASIER but lets not talk about that.

Also, what are those idiots doing? Suggesting to run away from a Bone farming opportunity?

My Ushiwakamaru can't be this cute! I feel bad for burning her when I got her in the game because I prefer my shiny SSR's.
I loved the scene with Ushi and Gudao, need more of that goodness.

I laughed when Gil mentioned that our world without Gods and the underworld seemed more peculiar to him.

Ana is too precious.

It sounds like the animators love Ishtar as much as me, loving all the shots of her and her action sequences are awesome too.

Favorite episode so far!! Eresh finally makes her appearance and it was awesome as hell that Ishtar's summoning was animated. Also that Ushi and Fujimaru-kun scene was pretty dope. I'm extremely excited for next week's episode!

seeing that Ishtar at beginning tho was *o*

and i'm real happy cuz Ushi finally has her best girl moment then again every scene with Ushi is a best girl moment :3

Ishtar fights once again are hype as hell and even tho this was a short one, it still was great in its execution and i don't think i'll ever get tired of seeing Ishtar fights.
also they did finally explain the whole Eresh thing tho but it wasn't quite what i expected. i was always wondering about it all throughout the singularity in-game but never got a clear explanation of what was going on until now so i'm pretty satisfied with that one mystery uncovered

Tchee! Fujimaru getting enticed by Ushiwakamaru's baby tomato breasts, the boy is such a bad virgin on top of being a yawning MC.

Ishtar was great though, I liked her hair color form. I can't wait to meet the other two goddesses, and hopefully one of them succeeds in killing Gilgamesh, the bastard is so overrated my chips became bitter. Saber may be overrated, but I enjoy watching her. Gilgamesh is like those door to door Jehovah's witnesses, you want to smash the door on his face. Fuck!

Ushiwakamaru and Ritsuka's moment was really awesome, i dont blame Ritsuka for blushing, Ushiwakamaru is hot and cute, and its nice to see more about her personality, i found it amusing!

Ritsuka lost in underworld, i am glad he was spared, and returned with the table!

The fight against Ishtar was amusing, it is always nice to see that personality exactly like Rin, and she is so damn gorgeous, and seems she have double personalitie, and seems the black hair is the good one, the other should be blonde!

Whether they use the correct OSTs for that or not will determine if this anime is good or not.

Ushiwakamaru wears some of the absurd clothing I have ever seen. Also, the fights feel excessive and just there for the sake of it.

I'd assume because this title isn't a conventional Fate title for anime only people, so it feels more disjointed from their perspective. Or maybe the negative stigma from Fate spinoffs has gotten into their head and they're just pessimistic about this anime. Regardless, these perspectives will hopefully dwindle when this show ends...

Ushiwakamaru was really lovely even though it was all just fanservice and Hayami Saori is certainly the reason why. Well, and Toshaka is obviously also a fanservice, that's given. Whole anime feels more like fandisc for players (although more competent than other spinoffs) so I guess that's that.

The story wasn't the best one (like ofc he gets into life-threatening situation when they split up), there were no real stakes like in FSN and the way he got the tablet from Noe was kinda random but it still kinda works (FGO was always more about characters and worldbuiling rather than about good plot hooks). It's even worse considering that this arc was written by Nasu (as the first one in Fuyuki) - I guess he kinda lost his drive and fell into mediocrity lately.

The action scenes in this anime are still nice although they really overuse certain sound effects and it really gets annoying after a while.

At least Ana wishing for being older was just nice detail, considering her identity.

Fate/Grand Order delivers yet another fine episode! As our heroes get assigned a new mission by Gilgamesh, Ritsuka renews his resolve to do whatever he can to help his friends. I can actually relate to Ritsuka's struggles and attempts to become more than just "average", not to mention these past few episodes have showcased his dedication to protect his friends, even against enemies who could easily destroy him. While this episode was small in terms of action, it was still a nice setup for future confrontations, as Ritsuka and friends get a table that could help turn the tide of the war to their favor. All in all, Fate/Grand Order is shaping up to the MVP of the season and I can't wait to see what happens next.

Ishtar strikes again. She really is a meddling goddess.
Also the conversation between Ushiwakamaru and Ritsuka was cute. To be able to meet someone you've admired and someone that realizes your real goal is truly inspiring.

Ana being all excited to go on a mission that pays well, gotta love her spirit.

A tied Rin-face on a chair, dejavu!

That spirit standing behind Ritsuka in the underworld actually scared the living shit of me. I guess I was in full concentration watching this episode.

A blond version of Ishtar, while reading some other comments here, I get a little what is going on but I definitely hope to see it more often!

Quality of these fights are still amazing, can't have enough of it!

But im glad they are giving supporting characters more screen time
Ishtar having some weird split personality with Eresh i guess took some time to wrap my head around

overall the anime feels like its doing well c:

Why has he fallen in mediocrity?
No stakes? Seemingly random events?

Have you seen other Fate titles?

Every one of them is like that for about a half of the show.

Phenomenal adaptation. 5/5

Cloverworks >>>>>> ufotable

I love all these small additions to put. I remember this chapter just started with Gilgamesh saying to fetch the Tablet of Destinies and be off with it. This time they actually gave Ushi screentime and hyping her up. It was lovely and very welcomed addition. They also showed us Ishtar's summoning.

I really love the characterization they've done to Ritsuka so far. He's very well aware of his position. He knows he's average and the only reason he got picked as humanity's final master is because he was the only one who survived. He didn't ask for this kind of fate. He knows how his ass has been saved countless times by other servants but he still wants to strive hard and do what he can. Cloverworks is doing a good job with him.

Yasss our second scene with gramps.

Although, they did cut out the part where Ishtar said she only wants to rule humans unlike the other goddesses who wants to control the world and how she was different from the other goddesses because she's not influenced by the grail.

Ana wishing she was older T_T

First scene with Eresh alright!

Seeing Ishtar tied up gave me some UBW flashbacks for a moment. At least, I'm glad there isn't, as far as I know, any "Shinji" kind of character in this adaptation.

And also lol... stealing gems, of course.

Uhmm interesting interesting. Now, I really wonder what's the deal with Ishtar and the blond hair. I have a guess about it but I will wait for the next episode before making conclusions.

Nice episode overall. The interactions between characters were nice and the fight scene with Ishtar, though brief, was still of good quality.

And on a side note... I really wasn't expecting Ushi to be this cute! Her talk with Gudao was quite enjoyable to hear but seeing her being so happy about her will/goal being acknowledge was absolutely lovely. Uhm, I guess I have found another servant to spoil if I ever play the game.

preach bro. Preach. The problem with some younger people is exactly this. The show is doign a superb job building up the characters but its severely overlook because people just wanna see a fight scene every other episode. This beginning pace is absolutely important and they simply can't see it.

This show is suffering from the exact same syndrome as another beloved series of mine. Shinsekai Yori. Slow starters get a bad rep for absolutely no reason. :/

which is why I love/hate that they're flashing out the characters.
