Goddamn do I love that tiny-ass Mary. Look at her, she fits in a pocket inside a pocket.

So while everyone else was fighting to the death for the fate/grand order of the world, Olga said lolfugdat and just spent her time in the arcade(and prob in another series lol), away from all that madness?

That...is actually pretty genius. I guess dying once teaches you when to know to get away when shit hits the fan.

Not Boudica, but Jeanne d'Arc instead. She's what her design is based on.

Historically speaking she is more Boudica than Jeanne.
- Is a royal by birth.
- Husband dying before she rose to fame.
- Ultimately failed in her rebellion.

But eh, the design is sending a different message.

How's that ironic? Boudica is a Briton, not English. Her descendants were among the first to be oppressed by the anglo-saxons.

A legacy of a nation is more than the legacy of a bloodline. Are you saying Boudica isn't (or shouldn't) be celebrated by British people? That the experience of being subjected to occupation by a foerign power does not exist in their cultural memory?

Sheesh guys, I'm not actually bitching or complaining. I can see how I sound that way but I really am enjoying things for what they are. It's just that a part of my own personal fun is to overthink and overanalyze things that don't need the effort.

Ridertoki is absolutely justified by his myth. The bike is called Golden Bear for a reason, it has feelings and everything. The main difference is that it's been modernized, since he himself loves modern stuff.

As for the swimsuit servants, those were justified in the event's plot. Start with the regular servants, add a dose of Scathach using runehax to give'em swimsuits and modify their spiritual cores (class has as much to do with the container as it does the spirit, after all), have them pull out new weapons to fit the mood, and presto. It's even pointed out that Kiyohime's not actually particularly skilled with the naginata, but makes up for it with her usual yandere-ness.

Seiba pulls out the water gun from her own stuff (it's the one she had in HA, in fact) and Mordred stole Prydwen from the Camelot armory at some point. Tamamo and Marie just grabbed a parasol and beach ball, respectively, and make up the difference with their own powers, as you can see in their animations. Mary and Anne didn't actually change anything, they just switch positions. Martha simply punches shit. And Scach, of course, can just make new weapons as she feels like.

And, of course, comedy. Half the point is comedy.

Hell, I'm surprised you don't bitch about Santa and MHX. Those were even less explained. (They don't need to be explained, of course, comedy events are comedy events)

And star rarity is not and has never been correlated to their power in lore. Romulus is cream of the crop, but only 3*. Cu is 3*. Fran, Jack and Amakusa are not top-tier servants. Edison and Tesla are treated as rivals equal in power but have a one-star difference. Bride is not somehow more powerful than Nero Classic. And so on. Swimsuits are 4* and 5* because they're meant to be exclusive to the quartz gacha, and no other reason.

Yeah. She said that it's only natural for a lady to be versed in the use of a naginata or something like that. But my point was that she's a 4 star despite no mentions in Kiyohime's legend involving naginatas while the regular version of her that actually adheres to her legend is a 3 star.

Without an associated legend, a heroic spirit should either not qualify for a class or be extremely gimped down. But again, when has DW ever cared for that? King Arthur was not known to decimate his enemies with a squirt gun either, nor was Kintoki known to own a motorbike.

In terms of star level, money, bro. It's all about the money.

Kiyohime for example is one of FGO's most popular characters so they made her a limited 4 star to get that cash flowing. Same for Mordred, Tamamo, Arturia. Remember, DW is a business first.

As for squirt gun Arturia and Ridertoki, it's called the Rule of Fun and the Rule of Cool. Don't be such a stick in the mud, bro! Have fun a little.

Gameplay-wise, because nobody want to roll for a limited *3. But when it's *4 or *5 it's a different story.
