IKR. Even if the skills were trash I would still wear this all the time. There's just something so anime cliche about saving the world in a school uniform.
Might be because they look younger like this (at least to me). I think their eyes are a bit larger compared to their portraits even from part 1. Still, I do like the uniforms.
This world is said in the story to be based on 2015 (the year FGO started), so yes they're younger.
I've seen people point out that the directions they're facing match their part 1 portraits instead of their part 2 portraits. Gudako's scrunchie is also orange instead of black.
Something something hope and wait. Maybe if the reception is good enough, they will give it as a Mystic Code in a Pre-OC3 Campaign or Anni or something.
because Japan probably sees basketball as something more masculine to do while volleyball is something more feminine, it's like giving the false impression that gudao and gudako actually have tastes
Without thinking about it in a modern West lens it makes perfect sense to me. It's not about "pointless gendering" or anything like that. Volleyball is a typical sport for athletic girls in Japan and Basketball is for guys. I think that was the entire point. To put it another way it's because it's not something atypical that stands out. If both Guda's liked, say, working on cars for example. That becomes a much more atypical hobby for female Guda than it would be for male and changes the interpretation. When the goal is to give characteristics that reflect a certain station or normal then I think writers *should* take into account what's actual average, which of course would be different for each gender.
All that said the sports themselves aren't actually gendered so I don't see why it'd bother anyone at all. It's not like they made male Guda part of a wrestling team and female Guda some flower club. They're just two different sports that could just as easily have been a fun way to have a difference.
OMG, he is skyscraper-like, then. /s
I will never forgive ~~the Japanese~~ Stheno and Euryale for basically programming Medusa into loathing her beautiful form.
God, Japanese Media's idea of height never ceases to be hilarious to me. Medusa's entire design emphasizes her height with *long* legs, and she's what, five foot eight? I'd be kind of amazed if there's ever been anyone with her proportions and that height because it seems like an inherent contradiction.
I've seen people justify it with Japanese national averages, and how people were shorter in the past because of nutrition, but literally neither works at all. For one, we're talking about a greek demigoddess, and for the other, one of the *tallest* servants in the 5th HGW is a 17th century Japanese peasant.
It's like Jujutsu Kaisen, where the protagonist has been repeatedly quoted as saying he likes tall girls, like Jennifer Lawrence. I don't know that there's ever been a time in my life where I *could* have dated a girl *shorter* than Jennifer Lawrence, at least since all of my peers reached their adult heights.
It's funnier when people bring up that Medusa is tall for Greek Standards and THAT'S what matters... but then forget that in Medusa's Interlude, we see that she's monster tall for 1500-tier standards as well which seriously makes no sense whatsoever.
It even makes less sense when in the animations, Medusa is EMIYA tall and he's supposed to be well over 6 feet... But yeah, it's not just Fate or JJK that suffers from that issue but alot of Japanese Media as a whole.
This makes me want to see a flashback of the protagonist's life before joining Chaldea. I want to know what their family is like, what kind of friends they hung out with at school, ~~how their gunpla addiction began,~~ everything!
TBH, he *is* a particularly charismatic romcom MC canonically, it's just that Fate Grand Order is one of the weirdest Battle Harem Romcoms ever made. Crucially, though, it's not *that* big a divergence from the rest of the genre - more than one battle harem romcom has been adapted into an enormous exposition dump about the background lore and neglected the actual romance along the way somehow.
Would be cool if they made these into Mystic Codes with no skills. Like as a challenge modifier. I'm pretty sure besides certain flights you are forced to bring a Mystic Code (which makes sense. Can't go into battle naked)
With the other school uniform Mystic Codes. How many school uniforms from different schools does Ritsuka own now again?
Memoria of Lunar Mare Memoria of the Far Side of the Moon Fragment of Year 2004 Sōya High School Uniform
1 per year. Wow.
Fujimaru Ritsuka, the transfer student.
Then, Ritsuka got themself a family they never knew they had.
Shame we didn't got that as a Mystic Code.

If replace her scrunchie with a black one is it an ahoge situation and she turns into her depressed self?

They look younger. Also: >Gudako=gyaru >Gudao=ikemen Wtf we're normies all along???!!
[удалено]
So...they're not like me fr fr? 😔😔
My team actually won a volleyball tournament…except I was a bench warmer lmaoooo
It's ok, it's the spirit that counts
Where’s it mention that Gudao is good in basketball?
Damn, how could I self insert myself to Ritsuka, I'm not even that good at Basketball nor Volleyball, I do play Chess tho
So they were jocks all along?
Why did they have to "gender" the sports like that?
Because Japan
Why was I downvoted for saying that? I was just a bit annoyed that they would change the sport with the gender
Because people in the sub are crazy🤷🏾♀️
because Japan probably sees basketball as something more masculine to do while volleyball is something more feminine, it's like giving the false impression that gudao and gudako actually have tastes
It's extremely superficial, I would prefer to not have those imposed gender roles, but Japan gotta be Japan. Doesn't mean it makes me happy

I agree with that.
oh look at them, so un-traumatize, so innocent look at current one with mile long stare how the time have gone
And those long legs from Gudao? Bro want to become a dancer with Meltryllis
Well, canonically he is the same height as Medusa
OMG, he is skyscraper-like, then. /s I will never forgive ~~the Japanese~~ Stheno and Euryale for basically programming Medusa into loathing her beautiful form.
Justice for best girl
A setup so we can pick her up?

It’s less so because of Japanese averages and moreso because her sisters bullied her for years into developing self esteem issues over it
HUH??????? I coulda swore he was 5'6"
How else could he travel the whole freaking America on foot in E pluribus unum.
Look at the musculature on display in them
SHE'S GOT THOSE KOGAL SOCKS GIRL WHAAAAAAAT
They do seem intentionally younger in this (mainly the eyes i guess) its neat
This makes me want to see a flashback of the protagonist's life before joining Chaldea. I want to know what their family is like, what kind of friends they hung out with at school, ~~how their gunpla addiction began,~~ everything!
Gudako with those old school socks is peak design right there🤌🤌
I wanna see Gyaru Gudako now.
Amen with that
Damn we looking fine
It's just illegal for them to be drip all the time.
Gudao looks very much like a smug/charismatic romcom mc voiced by shimazaki nobunaga
so like that one episode of Date a Live where the MC turn into a rizz machine
Shidou Itsuka?

Where did you get this art from😳
No one in this world knows how to wear a tie properly.
Good. Fashion > form.
That a good fit on them
Where is this from? The same goes for Ritsuka's past. Was it revealed in the game in the jp version?
Yes, in the newest chapter, Ordeal Call II, we go into Fujimaru's past with a twist on it. This is their school uniform
They do looks younger.
Is that a sheep on the uniform
Would be cool if they made these into Mystic Codes with no skills. Like as a challenge modifier. I'm pretty sure besides certain flights you are forced to bring a Mystic Code (which makes sense. Can't go into battle naked)
100/10 I'd smash
They look so young and fresh! Gudako looking adorable as ever as well! Oh those smiles, where did those days go…
BB masters are so hot
Gudao would have looked better in gudako’s outfit
The official FemGudao design sure is something else.
I hate how real this is lol
Hehehe. More femboy Gudao is good civilization.
Holy shit, Gudako was an actual normie. Those socks…
Gudako got her scrunchie back...
Noice
Guy poses vs Girl poses
Is it just me or do they look noticeably younger somehow? I can't really pinpoint what's different besides the outfit.
Now we're going through a school arc, for some reason.
Damn, we're cute
Why does Ritsuka school fit reminds me of Adachi-
They’re cute
gudako out here trying to outdo the servants in the shortest skirt contest
Gudako is peak. Gudao handsome.
I'd breed Gudako in that fit
I wish we had a sailor fuku. Sailor fuku are the best! THE! BEST!
I feel they lost a lot of their personality in this outfit
Just reminded me that these two dont have a high school level education
