Fate/strange Fake: Whispers of Dawn Reaction | GILGAMESH FINALLY MEETS HIS MATCH!!! 

💡Today's Question of the Day💡 "Which of the servants are you most looking forward to seeing more of?" Feel free to leave your thoughts in a reply under this post! 👍

For your information, Lord El-Melloi (the teacher guy with long hair) is Waver Velvet (master of Iskandar) who has matured after the events in Fate/Zero and became one of the most knowledgable mages with the title of "Lord". The piece of fabric he was looking at is a part from the cape worn by Iskandar.

The animators reading how Tine described the two Enuma Elishes tearing and fixing the world 7 times in a row: OHHH HELL NAAWWWW!!

Gils enuma elish destroyed the earths texture while enkidu repaired what gil destroyed so its a standstill since they would both cancel out. Also gils habit of throwing weapons originated from the first meeting with enkidu where they were both trying to kill each other. Enkidu kept throwing earth constructs at gil so he started throwing stuff in his treasury at enkidu too. after 3 days of fighting they decided to become homies coz the fight was a blast

Enkidu is actually genderless thats why the one mage referred to them as "it" but he goes by male pronouns also.

The anime adaptions always gloss over the explanation for the Assassin class and which servant it is for some reason: Basically, there was a real life guy named Hasan-i Sabbah from the middle east who started a group called Hashshashin (this is where the English word "Assassin" is derived from). In Fate's version of history, Hasan-i Sabbah was a REALLY powerful assassin, to the point where he gained so much mastery over death that he sort of transcended life itself. Fate's version of the Hashshashin were him and 18 other assassins who had to fulfill three conditions to join: They needed to carve off their face to be truly anonymous, discard their name and call themselves "Hasan-i Sabbah", and have a unique signature killing technique (always called "Zabaniya", no matter what it consisted of). Due to the fact that the name of the Assassin class comes from Hashshashin, the Holy Grail War is programmed to use the name itself as a catalyst and ALWAYS summon one of the 19 Hasan-i Sabbah. That's why the guy who summoned her is scratching his head when he summoned one of them who still had a face instead of their skull mask. (her circumstances will be revealed in the series proper) It's also worth noting that just because the system is made to overwrite whatever catalyst you use with the word "assassin" and always summon a Hashshashin, there ARE other servants who qualify for Assassin.

Fate Zero was the fourth Holy Grail War, with Fate/Stay Night being the fifth. The third Holy Grail War took place in Fuyuki, Japan (as did the two following it and the two preceding) just prior to the Second World War and was notable for having a number of oddities related to the Servants summoned and even an (unsuccessful) attempt by the Nazis to co-opt its magicks for their war effort. (Notably, the premise of Fate Apocrypha is built around the idea that the Nazis were successful in their interference...sorta...) As for the Command Spell symbols, they're more or less unique to each Master, though Masters who are related to and/or close to each other may have very similar designs, and-as you see here-if one Master sreals the Command Spells of another, they do not change shape. There's no way to tell which class a Servant is by the shape of the Command Spell.

35:11 "she"!! He has fallen in to the clay-trap card

Actually crazy how well you discovered the characters by just watching fate zero it's like you're watching on hard mode because this fate has stuff from tsukihime as well

“Finally someone who can rival Gilgamesh” - a citizen of Uruk about to have their wedding night but Enkidu has arrived in town

Best clay being as fabulous as ever 😂

The old man after the credits (Kischur Zelretch Schweinorg) is the user of the 2nd True Magic, Kaleidoscope. Basically, the operation and handling of Parallel Worlds. So he can draw power from and manipulate parallel worlds and timelines. 'True Magic' is basically genuine magic unlike magecraft, something that cannot be replicated by science or human hands in any way. He mentioned ''the giant spider will awaken'' which refers to ORT. To put complex things simply, it is an alien from outer space (the oort cloud specifically) that is sorta like a ginormous crystal spider. It is the boogeyman of the verse, and as far as I know, also the strongest being in the verse. It doesn't follow the laws of the planet or the Common Sense of Man as it comes from outer space, so it basically can't be harmed by conventional magecraft/attacks. It is akin to a ''secret boss you shouldn't be able to find, one that is so overpowered and unfair it makes the player want to cry and question the devs'' TL;DR Even if Gilgamesh went all out (he was playing with Enkidu in this, basically a handshake for em) he wouldn't be able to do anything to the Spider before being vaporized. Not even Dead Apostle Ancestors can hold a candle. It is sleeping in South America, and it waking up would immediately mean the extinction of humanity and possibly all other life on the planet.

"finally someone who can rival gilgamesh" oh boy you arent ready for the others.

I can give you a 2 hints on who Fake Caster is: He is a writer as you could notice and he is connected with France. Thats all i can say, but don't worry they will reveal his True Name pretty early on in the Series.

anyone powerful enough to make Gilgamesh call Ea BEFORE the fight is serious business, and Strange Fake is absolutely full of people like that. It's gonna be a ride

Some clarification given information from the covered portion of the novels, as well as maybe a few things you missed (shouldn't be any spoilers, but I'll hide it behind a clickthrough just in case): Flat's Servant, Jack the Ripper, is a Berserker. He mentioned it when Flat assumed he's an Assassin. The class of Tine's Servant, Gilgamesh, was not mentioned, but if you've seen Fate Zero or Fate Stay Night, you can make a pretty good guess. The class of the wolf chimera's Servant, Enkidu, was not mentioned, but if you've played Fate Grand Order, you can make a pretty good guess. Neither the class or the name of the little sick girl Tsubaki Kuruoka's Servant was given. Both are part of the mystery of the series, so I won't spoil its identity. The police chief's (don't remember if his name was ever mentioned) Caster Servant was not named, but that should be revealed pretty esrly on so there's no point spoiling it. Just keep in mind that one's Servant class is determined by what their legacy in life allowed them to do. He said his job was to create heroes. Even though he's a Caster, it doesn't mean he was a magic user in life. The ninja girl Servant with the clearly not human Master is an Assassin. It was mentioned by her Master when he remarked that she wasn't wearing a skull mask like the Hassan-i-Sabbah Servants usually have (see Fate Zero, Fate/Stay Night: Heaven's Feel). Her specific identity and backstory are quite interesting so I won't spoil it. The final (presumed Saber) Servant was not named, and neither was his Master. Tl;dr: we know who the Assassin, Berserker, and Caster Servants are, which leaves Lancer, Archer, and Rider not officially identified, and one extra Servant who appears to be a Saber even though there's not supposed to be one. On that last point, go back and listen again to what the creepy overly cheerful girl (who has also not been identified yet) was saying to the police chief.

10:35 “did he compete in an grail war?” Bro that’s WAVER

10:39 this teacher El-Melloi IS Waver

The old man from the last scene was one of the 5 magicians "Kischur Zelretch Schweinorg" a super strong being that can kill all those servants in his prime... The Holder of Second Magic, the Operation of Parallel Worlds. Note: Magic and Magecraft are two different things in Fate verse

Fate/Strange Fake lives up to the Strange part of the title. And never stops making you feel hyped up.

I highly recommend watching one of the Fate/Stay Night series before you get further into Fate Strange Fake. While FSF isn't quite considered canon with the core Fate series (Zero and Stay Night) it does take place in a world where those two stories (or at least a variation of, in the case of FSN) have taken place, so there may be things that spoil the events of FSN for you. Of the multiple FSN adaptations, I'd probably recommend UBW as the most comprehensive and accessible. Heaven's Feel is a series of movies, so it's by necessity less comprehensive than a full series, and even initially was written with the expectation that the viewer had already seen the other two story routes. And the original Deen adaptation, which adapts the initial Fate route (more or less) just isn't very good. You might want to watch Fate Apocrypha as well, as there are a few minor Easter eggs referencing that series, but it's hardly as "required reading" as FSN is.

The old man in the credits is Zelretch, he taught the Tohsaka, Makiri and Eiznbern family how to create command seals and is a dimensional traveler.

20:01 The killer himself possibly gave the name Jack the Ripper in a letter. The name "Jack the Ripper" originated in the "Dear Boss letter" written by an individual claiming to be the murderer, which was disseminated in the press. The letter is believed by some to have been a hoax and may have been written by journalists to heighten interest in the story and increase their newspapers' circulation. The "From Hell letter" received by George Lusk of the Whitechapel Vigilance Committee came with half of a preserved human kidney, purportedly taken from one of the victims. The public came increasingly to believe in the existence of a single serial killer known as Jack the Ripper, mainly because of both the extraordinarily brutal nature of the murders and media coverage of the crimes.

You are correct that Enkidu was Gilgamesh's friend in The Epic of Gilgamesh. Fate has incorporated a lot of their original lore into it's universe over the years

8:53 Waver basically describing Kayneth

So waver has his own series called lord el melloi case files, where he inherits the blond guys name from zero and it follows him and his apprentices in like a detective styled show, one of his apprentices is flat the blonde kid with knife, you don't really nee case files but the stay night series would provide more context for sure, this series is set in an alternate reality after the events of zero, stay night, and case files, where its more intertwined with nasu's other works outside of fate, the other series hollow ataraxia takes the place of this series as a continuation back in the "normal" timeline thats fate focused, the fgo series/movies are godly too

7:43 Oh? You want to know who these servants are? Well, alright then. Spoilers below. MASSIVE spoilers. Ungodly spoilers. You have been warned. Clicking `Read More` will lead to several paragraphs. Archer - Gilgamesh; you already know. Lancer - Enkidu; Gilgamesh's one and only friend, a being made from clay as the weapon of the gods. If Nature had a Servant then this one is it. Caster - Alexandre Dumas; is basically a writer who can `write` Noble Phantasms into existence. They're basically forgeries that surpass the original legends. You already got the gist of his personality. There's not much left to talk about with him as a Servant. Assassin - Zealot; Basically a nameless zealot from the Hassans, not even one of their leaders. Her lore, iirc, is that she attempted to become the 19th Hassan by learning all of the Zabaniya of the previous 18 heads, but got passed up because she didn't develop anything original. The Hassan from F/Zero was the 19th head they picked over her. However, they also passed her up because they found her too much of a `Zealot` even for an organization of zealots. Hence why she is known as Zealot. Berserker - Jack the Ripper; or rather the myth. The Special already explains enough about him. JtR already exists in Fate as a murder loli, the amalgamation of Wraiths of dead children in London. Both are canon, but this Berserker version represents the myth and legends much more. Coincidentally, if he tries to take the form of a young girl, he takes the form of the loli assassin version unwillingly. Rider - Pale Rider; is not a Heroic Spirit. It isn't a Divine Spirit, nor is it a Demonic Spirit. It doesn't even have a personality. If it could be described as something, then you could say it's a Disease. It's the embodiment of Pestilence, and could be described as one of the four horsemen of apocalypse, hence being called `A curse of death`. This is my assumption, but the reason it is a Rider Servant is because it is a disease, hence it Rides people to spread its contagion. It is arguably the most dangerous `Servant` summoned in this war. And yes, you could call it the Black Plague. And that's it for the Fake Holy Grail War and its Servants. There are no other Servants for the Fake HGW. And as for the after credit scene... Type-moon lore get's out of hand real quick. That old man is the Magician of the Second Magic, Zelretch. You see, magecraft that every Magus uses is not the same as Magic, with a capital M. Comparing them is like comparing an ant to a mountain. Magecraft is a phenomenon you can reproduce with magical energy, but still possible through human hands, such as shooting a plume of fire, reproducable with an IRL flamethrower. Magic, on the other hand, cannot be reproduced. They are true miracles. His Magic specifically focuses on the operations regarding parallel worlds. In the after credit scene, he observes countless timelines but never interferes too much as, if he did, then that timeline becomes the only possibility. I don't get the full specifics of why he's observing Saber's Master, but it might just be because it leads to a timeline that won't end in complete disaster. Just my assumption. Now you might wonder why is there a Saber when I said there are no other servants for the Fake HGW? Because there are Seven more True Servants, including the Saber shown in the after credit scene. They are unbridled hype. I love True Caster and his Master the most, because it's unique. Not gonna get into it though. Side note, the `Spider` that Zelretch mentions sleeps in South America. Do not wake it up. Humanity won't survive, even if Servants like Gilgamesh fought it. You can look up what a lesser cousin of it looks like if you want by googling LB7 ORT. I don't want to explain more because type-moon lore is too fkn deep.

you might be right on the plague thing. if i remember correctly enkidu was killed by a sickness in his legend so if it is the plague as a servant then it would make sense for enkidu to want to leave

jack the ripper is berserker class he stated it himself in his introduction

Yes, zero is fine but unlimited blade works and heaven's feel are must watch

And i'm still waiting the promised reaction on gigguk's "30 minutes explaining fate series" :D That will be fire!

41:19 Ok we won't say it............becuase it's actually both plauge AND death!!!!So her servant is two horseman's of apocalypse in one.And yeah the only reason this thing in the Rider class is becuase it's called the horseman of apocalypce😂😂😂😂 even tho it's more of a Berserker than Jack is.But this series is called STRANGE fake for a reason.

If i remember in the light novel , zeldritch is in the gap in between dimensions but ea had reality warping affects, which zeldritch was thoroughly impressed by the clash of Enkidu and Gil As he felt a disturbance In the realm. Gil has one the most overpowered clairvoyance in fate but he barley uses it .also it was nowhere near ea’s true power as stated in the novel as it was magnitudes weaker than it used to be , and Gil also said why didn’t Enkidu transform into his original form . The anime left a lot of stuff out from the light novel In short this is nowhere near their full power

It's kinda crazy how different this Berserker Jack is compared to Assassin Jack, who is a murder loli. Yes, you heard that right, the first version of Jack the Ripper is a Murder Loli. She is, to my knowledge, a representation of all unborn children and/or orphan children that died in the streets of London during the time Jack the Ripper was active.

Remember this is just the tip of strange fakes iceberge

Rider, that sleeping girl's servant, is the pale rider - Death, the opposite of Enkidu which draws their power from the Earth. ps, Enkidu is made of mud, it has no gender but he identifies as male.

39:01 richard the Lionheart looks cool👌

Cant wait for the series adaptation!

10:22 Funny you should say that👀

my boy richard and preletti(hint this character is from garden of sinners)

For those unaware, the blonde girl at the end, who summoned Saber, was Ayaka Sajyou. While I myself am unaware of her role in Strange Fake, as this is my own first experience with the series, Ayaka was actually the originally intended Protagonist of Fate/Stay Night's initial draft, before it was re-written and Shirou was created. So, if the original draft had been printed, Ayaka would have appeared first in Stay Night, rather than Strange Fake.

I mean Faldeus wasn't exactly wrong, there isn't a Saber in the Fake Holy Grail War. (Fate/strange Fake future TV series spoilers) He never said anything about another holy grail war starting on top of that simultaneously and summoning seven more servants...

The servant of the little girl is one of the 4 horsemen "Death"

The significance of the Command Seal's shape is different depending on what piece of media you're watching. Somethimes there's significance to the shape, such as resembling a sword like shape for Saber Masters, or in FGO the first Servant you have is from a new class called Shielder, and the MC's Command Seals look like a Shield. Other times, they more or less just are there to look cool.

To enkidu and gilgamesh, it just a brofist.

the most Ive been hyped for an anime episode since Re Zero s2. this is about to be the best Fate for sure, Ive heard that volume 1 doesnt even compare to the later volumes either so were in for a treat

27:28 . Jack is Berserker class. he says that himself but you were talking lol

Enkidu is the only one who is Enkidu’s equal, however, there are a lot of top dogs in this show where they can give Gil a run for his money. The next servants that are still to come will show you that Gil and Enkidu are not the only top dogs. The servants in fate zero and unlimited blade works compared to fate strange fake are similar to children compared to the lineup you got for this anime.

The "giant spider" that the old man at the end was talking about is this guy btw ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TkgxH59HCAI.html

Great reaction, enjoyed you're blind comments, it was fun!

the command spell ( on the hand ) has nothing to do with the servant class, its just random and unique to each master

38:26 gaint spider 💀💀💀💀💀💀 ese universo está condenado 💀💀💀💀💀

Keep in mind flat is one of wavers best students. Like mans is such a problem itd take the rest of the class jumping him to take both him and his homie svin (who’s in case files) to take them down

so a bit of lore on Enkidu! he was a being made by nature itself discovered by gilgamesh who when they met had fought for 7 days straight, gilgamesh befriending him after this brought him to the kingdom of babalon and let them bang the most beautiful woman in the kingdom who allowed him to calm down to the point where he was able to act civilized for the rest of the epic of gilgamesh the 3 of them are shown to be inseparable, until Ishtar goddess of fertility tried to seduce Enkidu and in response to this he throws a side of beef at her in rejection and her being offended by this curses enkidu to death, this caused his wife and gilgamesh to go mad with grief and why gilgamesh is shown to be a tyrant in the forms you see him in, meanwhile Enkidu in the land of the dead literally beats the god of death into submission becoming the new king so that he could one day meet his friends again

SPOILER: PLEASE DO NOT OPEN IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO KNKW THE ID OF SOME SERVANTS RIDER: HOLY CRAP THIS DUDE IS OBSERVANT AF!! AWESOME catch with the plague doctor mask and connecting the dots! So Essentially YES! The servant the girl has IS the Black Plague although its referred to as "The Pale Rider" AKA Pestilence AKA One of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. It's COMPLETELY autonomous and has no personality what so ever and plays an important role in this holy grail war. Caster: A writer. I forget his name but think of him as an writer with the ability to "create" heroes. Assassin: OK BIG chunk of Fate lore here. SO the assassin class is USUALLY always ONE of leaders of a cult that was formed a LONG time ago. Each one of these leaders took up the Mantle of Old Man of Mountain AKA Hassan-I-Sabbah. To become a leader they needed to master a skill always called Zabanya. It wasn't always the SAME exact skill it was just given that name. At some point there was 18 of these leaders that had come and gone and it was time to chose another leader. It was between the Assassin in Fate/Zero (Hundred Faced Hassan) or THIS assassin AKA The Nameless Assassin. THIS assassin has NO Zabanya skill of her own, rather she COPIED and ALMOST perfected EVERY OTHER PRIOR LEADER'S Zabanya skill. What that means is she has 18 DIFFERENT Noble Phantasms she has in her back pocket (2 of which we see in this episode, the Heart being crushed as one and the Head Exploding as another). So instead of the cult praising The Nameless Assassin for her work they instead cast her off claiming she had not forged a Zabanya of her own and instead chose the Assassin in Fate/Zero as their 19th leader. MAJOR SPOILERS: THERE ARE MORE SERVANTS ASIDE FROM THE SABER SEEN AT THE END. A SINGLE CLUE WAS SPRINKLED IN A SINGLE LINE IN THE SPECIAL. I will NOT go into further detail. Use the internet if you wanna go BEYOND details that was given in this special.

Unlimited Blade Works is so unbelievably worth checking out

The sick litle girl servat is very dngerous

Spoiler warning in 3...2...1 The identity of Caster is Alexandre Dumas, author of titles such as "Three Musketeers", "The Count of Monte Christo". He was known taking legends that already existed while expanding and improving. Anyways, he had a reputation of spending large amounts of booze and women. Hence why his whole "I'm never the hero, I only make them better" motif

Welcome to the Best Peak of all Fate Series That old man in the end is the Kaleidoscope ojisan, also (S)ayaka master of saber both series is also the protag in Fate/Prototype (anymore info would be a spoiler) All Servants and Most of the masters here are all OP Broken asf specially when the Dead Apostle also

"giant spider" means ORT

Why is a curse of death a natural enemy of Enkidu?

Unlimited blade works is good heavens feel movies are my personel favorite though.

How to watch this anime in order 😢

Want to watch so bad but I can’t get crunchyeroll

The sick girls servant is fitting its a rider class and very famous is the book of revelations it rides a pale horse.....

None of them, King Richard, Saber, Artoria Pendragon's in-universe Fanboy!

One tip....Don't google image search Fate Jack the Ripper. There's another version. We don't like to talk about her.

oh another writer caster

bro just called enkidu a she

Spoiler no spoiler this war is if evrybody is op nobody is just be redy

27:28 Hard to read subs and keep up with the info when you talk a lot right.

Fate作品を楽しく見るために助言させていただくと喋る時は映像を一時停止させた方がいいと思います。 一言でも見逃すと後から起こることが理解できなくなってしまうのがFate作品だからです。

UFOTABLE is insane

"shes" enkidu is not a she its an it a living weapon gilgamesh refers to him as a man tho so I guess him would be more correct
