Fate/Zero #9 Reaction - Early Access!

There's a few different versions, so being accurate is almost impossible, so I don't believe I'm wrong about anything. most of my knowledge comes from books and plays I watched as a child. I also got the important stuff down, since the only three characters that matter to the story for fate are Grainne, Fionn and Diarmuid. While other fianna members helped, they weren't that important to Diarmuid's characterization in fate. I wasn't going detailed in my short synopsis

Gilles de Rais

The powers of the heroes summon are from their respective legend. For example, Avalon is the place King Arthur goes to heal his wounds in battle. These special powers/attacks are called noble phantasm. Also, Heroes can be called in another class. Arthur is a great swordsman but also good in spears so she can be a lancer class. It just depends on the availability of the class or the artifacts used by the master.

I think Rais himself confessed to killing children and he supposedly practiced alchemy and black magic after leaving the army. At least now they know his real backstory, which makes it easier to hate him in the show even more

I think it's my favorite of the whole series

The dub doesn't have the excuse that the original has; the dub can literally just look up how they're said and say them, but they clearly just didn't bother

I mean to be fair the Japanese dub also butchers Irish names it just sounds better because it's being said phonetically in Japanese

Hakurei Oni

maybe you should read that tale again there are a few mistakes in your take and you forgot to mention oengus

Pucki

Of course the guy famous for cutting the Gordian knot would appreciate the simple method Waver used.

CrossZ

caster is a knight said to be one of the JeannDarcs subordinate.

Kaz

Lord and vassal, 3 different pairings, 3 entirely different relationships. Amazing

Fionn's legend is that his love spot made his king's fiance fall in love with him. Due to his honour, he both could not deny her advances and do anything with her and betray his king. So he runs away with her but refuses to do anything with her. Then Fionn (who is basically Irish King Arthur) sends his armies after Diarmuid to kill him and get his future wife back. Diarmuid makes a house and then defends the house from the entire fianna, until Fionn gives up and accepts the marriage. Later, on a quest to hunt a boar, Diarmuid is fatally wounded and Fionn COULD heal him, but chooses to instead taunt him and let him die slowly, calling him a traitor. Thus, it can be implied by this stage that Diarmuid regrets betraying his king at all and, if he had another chance, wouldn't run away with Grainne. It's basically King Arthur and Lancelot BEFORE King Arthur and Lancelot were even things. Arthurian myth stole a LOT from Celtic myth.

It hurts so much to hear my favourite heroes be called such weird things. What the fuck is Com-Hail.

Bruh why the dub gotta fuck up every Irish name though
