WHY DOES THIS GIRL LOOK EXACTLY LIKE RIN??? Fate/Grand Order: Babylonia Episode 1-2 Reaction 

Don't forget that you can check out my Babylonia Ep. 3-4 Reactions RIGHT NOW over on the Patreon! 👍

you gotta admit the guy in charge of camera angles REALLY had a plan in mind for those episodes.

Context : Gilgamesh is not a servant. He is alive here, unlike his youthful archer self , here he is a mature adult. Also Merlin was the one who gave Bedevire his Excaliber arm. The guy who was with Bedivere in flower garden was Merlin.

28:43 yes to this day he’s still alive in Avalon. And in game whenever we summon him we technically don’t get servant Merlin but an illusion Merlin conjures in order to interact with Chaldea.

I love how tsundere the goddess is. Truly in line with Rin. "How dare you be my cushion without my permission!" Classic Rin line (or Rin's ancestor's line)

i don't think Gilgamesh is a servant, I believe he is still alive at this point in time

Basically A. Ishtar was incarnated into a body of I believe a priestess, or a version of Rin. Mostly cause they're similar also B. Gilgamesh has the ability to see the future

💡Today's Question of the Day💡 "If you were in Fujimaru's position right now, would you trust Merlin?" Feel free to leave your thoughts in a reply under this post! 👍

ishtar is something called a pseudo servant which is similar to Mash but instead of the human retaining full control, the spirit possesses the body and fuses their personality. Rin was summoned by some people at a temple to act as a vessel for Ishtar. Basically pseudo servants are fgo's way of adding most other fate or type moon characters

Rin's eyes are blue btw, not red like Ishtar. Also Gil's chains are the same chains, the original form or concept of the weapon of the gods leftover after Enkidu "died". Believe he even refers to them as Enkidu, The Chains of Heaven in either Zero or UBW.

Mmm forget Fate Strange Fake, I'm here for that Fate Mash Cake 🤤 Jokes aside... she's just such a badass, literally one of the coolest characters in Fate. The simple reason that girl looks like Rin is because people pay a lot of money in the mobile game for lookalikes. The lore reason... I don't remember, it's one of those things they just invented an excuse to make a rinface

6:09 Out of those only Camelot has been animated.

I mean, Mash's voice actress is Rie Takahashi, so the voice of Emilia from Re:Zero, Megumin from Konosuba, Ai Hoshino from Oshi no Ko.

Rin-lookalike context below: For context: Ishtar is what you call a Pseudo-Servant, it is when a heroic spirit has either. A: Way too much mystery or power to control naturally and thus requires a vessel of the modern time to manifest in or B: Lack the mystery/historical ability to become a servant and thus requires someone of the present time to manifest in. Ishtar is of the A category. She is someone that has too much power to naturally manifest as a servant with and therefore required a vessel to inject a portion of herself into that form.

FYI there is a counter guardian Rin called TOHSAKA from a Gag game called Capsule Servant,

Enjoyed the reaction. Having someone who looks and acts like a super-powered version of Rin (but in that outfit!) was certainly very surprising -- and welcome, as she was definitely one of the high points of earlier iterations of the series. Mesopotamia is the general name for the region; in "reality"the specific nation that Gilgamesh came from was Sumeria, perhaps earth's oldest civilization whose capital was the city of Uruk. Sumeria was followed later by the Babylonian civilization, which occupied the same general area whose capital was Babylon. However, Fate involves a lot of myth, and Babylon is important in relationship to Gilgamesh because the Babylonians were the ones who codified the legends of Gilgamesh (kind of like King Arthur if he existed was supposed to live during the early Romano-British civilization, but his legends were codified centuries later in medieval England, by a different culture living in Britain). However, the word "Babylon" has a lot of mythical and mystical associations due to its mention in the Bible, more so than .Sumeria , so that may explain the title. Incidentally, Chaldea was historically a small country that was part of the larger Babylonian empire, and its people were supposedly famous as astrologers / astronomers, hence, likely, the reason it was selected as a code name for the agency our heroes work for.

The place they are going is what Will become known as Babylonia in the future after the time of Gilgamesh

Ah my favorite npc the wholesome gate guard! Ana deserved those treats, she really is too precious.

in these singularities, the land will summon some servants to help fix it. these are the rogue servants

7:30 Polynesian expansion (from their original home region in South Asia (modern Taiwan and surroundings) started with speaker of Austronesian languages around the time this Singularity takes place (ca. 2500 BCE) in a slow crawl to New Guinea (reached around 1500 BCE). From there the first wave of actual Polynesian expansion up to 800 BCE reached Samoa. Then came an Age of no expansion before the second wave around 800 CE (ca. 380 years after the fall of the Western Roman Empire) when they relatively quickly settled the Pacific islands to the East (Hawai'i and Easter Island being the furthest reaches and by 1200 CE they had set foot on New Zealand, completing settlement of the Polynesian Triangle). Babylon is city in Mesopotamia. A very real city that persisted for very long time. Mesopotamia was home to many different peoples and ciliizations that had some cultural elements in common (and were, like most "pagans" pretty chill about identifying their gods with those their neighbors had that had a similar function [for example the Summerian goddess Innana was seen as being same as the Akkadian goddess Ishtar, which became the common name used by the Babylonians, Assyrians and others). The earliest civilization in Mesopotamia (being part of the so called "fertile crescent" that stretches over the Middle East, one of the regions where humanity invented agriculture on their own) were the Summerians and by the time Gilgamesh (an actual historical king who became larger than life character in later myths) ruled the city of Uruk the first cites were about 2000 years old, a writing system had been invented for almost 1000 years. The Summerians founded ca. 35 city states ruled by their kings that were rivals, sometimes with war among them, sometimes under the dominion of a few cites [as we see here in Gilgamesh's age, where his city of Uruk reigns supreme]. The Summerians (speaking a language whose relations to others is disputed) over time integrated more and more elements of their Western Neighbors, the Akkandians (speakers of the oldest Semitic language we know) into their culture (including the language). Eventually Sargon of Akkad would shape the Akkadian city states into an Empire and, ca. 400 years after Gilgamesh, conquered the Sumerian city states. After it's collapse came another age of city states with Babylon coming out on top and starting their own empire. Their first Empire went down with the Bronze age collapse (ca. 1200-1050 BCE) and in the "Dark Age" after that the Assyrian Empire emerged. When the Assyrians went down a Neo-Babylonian Empire did arise (612 BCE) and by ca. 530 BCE the Persian from the East of Mesopotamia (once also conquered by the Assyrians) took control of the region. Those are the very Achaemenid Persians that fought the Greeks and were conquered by Alexander the Great. All this time Babylon was an important city (including de facto capital of Alexander after he conquered it).

They're in the Era when Gilgamesh was alive

Mesopotamia is a region were a lot of different cultures and peoples have called home. Babylonians came much after Gilgamesh had long been an established legend and is from the ancient Sumerians that lived in southern Mesopotamia in city states from like 4000 BCE to like 1800 BCE

34:55 Technically Gilgamesh here is a living (Demi-) human being (after all he is 2/3 god and son of human king and a goddess), not a Servant, so he has not Servant Class Container. Practically the same (wiser and slightly older) Gilgamesh will be summoned in FGO as Caster Class Servant.

34:50 gilgamesh is not a servant here he doesn’t have a class his not the caster its just after his legend he just tried Magecraft and for reasons now uses only staffs and wands to fire magic from the vault

Hell yeah dude, BABYLON LETS GOO

Oh my, u gotta love this singularity of babylon cuz its 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Welcome to Babylonia. One of the best stories in FGO.

When they talked about what Gil’s clairvoyance can do they really didn’t do a good job. But long story short it’s one of the best ranks of clairvoyance but Gil almost never uses it because it would make everything too easy and boring. He’s able to see the truth of things so you can’t lie to him, as well as the present and alternate timelines. The counter force actually nerfs it when he gets summoned not that he’d use it anyway. Overall he uses it less than Ea.

Divine spirits becomes servent using human vessel, who are very similar characteristics to them. You know rin tsundere , same applies to ishtar. Also other reason is saber, sakura, rin faces exist to make money 😂

YESSIIIR WE MOVE🔥🔥🔥

Hmm well there's a reason she looks like Rin...

Mash is not the Only Demi Servant :> that all i can say

To answer the title question, she's a Pseudo Servant. Ishtar fused with Rin to end up here. Also, Gilgamesh isn't a Servant here.

basically ishtar is using rin’s body. ishtar is a divine spirit, its very hard to directly summon them as a servant. so they will find a human thats compatible with the divine spirit and use them as a vessel, and their personality will merge. thats the lore explanation, the real explanation is cash grab with popular characters 😂😂😂😂

nice

Ana looks adorable. Probably, she's the younger version of Medusa.

Achilles is in another series, fate/apocrypha. but the series was not very loved

☺️👍

It is Rin's body. Ishtar's actual body doesn't look like that and she isn't this nice either. Of course Gilgamesh knows, he can see the future including alternate future timelines. Mesopotemia, Babylonia, Iraq are all the same place just in different time periods. That ain't Achilles lol, its really easy to figure out who he is, most people knows him in fact. And that is indeed quetzalcoatl

Just so u know all the fgo anime’s r trash I could rant all day about the animation alone. & my type-moon essay playlist agrees with me.
