What a childish tactic!
Don't you think you should put more thought into your battleplan?!


I wish they'd shown off Cursed Arm's regular attacks too.

I hope NA gets all the various animation updates faster than in the original. It'd suck to have to wait two years for Awesome Zabaniya.

Haha, so Sakura is a Lancer, Rin is an Archer, and Saber is a Saber. And Shirou is a Ruler, but also an Archer. It's like poetry, it rhymes.

Link could fit in to pretty much every one of the standard classes except I think Lancer and Assassin.

Saber - Standard Link with the Master Sword
Archer - Bow usually tends to be like the first item you get in dungeons and in past games, Ganon was traditionally had to be finished off with a magic arrow.
Lancer - I can't really think of any time Link's had a spear or lance as his weapon outside of them being a weapon type in Breath of the Wild. Maybe Link with the Fishing Rod as a summer skin? :shrug:
Rider - Either Link on Epona, or Toon Link from Wind Waker with the King of Red Lions.
Caster - Link qualifies for this the same way Gilgamesh does - by having a poo poo ton of magic staves, rods and canes he's acquired throughout various adventures.
Assassin - Can't really think of any way he'd qualify for this, even as a joke class.
Berserker - Child Link with the Fierce Deity Mask from Majora's Mask.
Avenger - Link's Shadow from Zelda II.

Wrong Shirou, for the ruler. That shirou is a real person, unrelated to anime.

Granted, this is also the meta-bait; if you go into Apocrypha blind (especially in the pre-Grand Order days, reading the books) you were very much meant to think this "Shirou Kotomine" guy was supposed to be "our" Shirou. It was a pretty well-laid twist, but obviously GO kind of spoils it outright.

Yes, it's straight out of the VN and it's a loving amazing interpretation of what he does.

I got beat to it but holy poo poo Cursed Arm's new animations are astounding. A ton of callbacks to the VNs themselves and in general he looks stunning. And now a bronzie looks better than some gold Servants :v:

Hopefully Kojiro's rework is to this extent, too.

I went ahead and caved, buying quartz because I just needed a fix and I've had disappointing rolls lately.
Anne Bonny, Mary Read, and Ching Shih were my favorite pirates when I was a kid going through my pirate phase*, and I've really wanted to roll Anne and Mary since the get go but they've not shown up.
I go to do my final roll this rate up and there they are. :3:
I also got another Waver, so he's going to be up to NP2. Bless.


(* Okay, so, I grew up around the NC coasts and that's some Blackbeard and pirate-themed heavy territory so in elementary school you get a poo poo ton of pirate books in the library and pirate-themed field trips to Bath and poo poo. Lots of pirate poo poo. Okeanos has been loving great.)

The only thing that might tempt me is Okita, because I have a running theme going of getting golds on my NA account that I don't have on JP, and I already do have Jack. OTOH Jack is among the very best Assassins by... a lot, and we don't really start to get good high-rarity alternatives until Shiki and Summer Scath roll around, and I've got a fair bit of Saber already. So we'll see.

The only thing that could make the cloak outfit better would be some shabby trousers instead of still having her weird Tron boots.

But yeah, Jack's a lot more tolerable in her initial outfit. Regardless of that, though, she's also just completely bonkers, so even if you hate her appearance I'm not sure I totally recommend just ignoring her debut (which should be Christmas).

Hector is pretty much Mr. AoE Buster Times, so give him either some kind of Buster Up or a NP Charge At Start so he can get off an NP quick and clear a wave. There's nothing much you can do to improve his skills via CE at the moment.

Aw, I'm not going to lie but that's kind of really lame. It was one of the few things that was keeping my interest in reading the Apocrypha manga.

Where are you seeing numbers? So far I've only seen the in-game text descriptions posted. Obviously the amount of NP gain on her third skill and NP are going to make a huge difference to how strong she is.
