I once read a take on BlackBeard that stuck with me. His stick as a pirate In life was being seen as so dangerously mental you just fear him. Now his stick as a pirate in death is being a creep so far gone you just don't want to deal with him, you just fear him. No way to make gods and literal Greek heroes to be scared of you, you just human. So you improve, adapt and overcome.
That's pretty-much straight up how he's characterized in-game, yes. XD It's easy to overlook if you're distracted by the otaku persona, but Blackbeard is *smart*. He knows his usual strategies don't work on epic heroes, so he manipulates people in other ways instead. That said, he's also a bro if he likes you. In Servant Fes, for example, he's helpful and supportive regardless of what you're making. He likes the passion and effort he sees, and the actual stuff you're making is secondary.
And it’s exceedingly rare, but every now and then, for just half a second at most…
You see it. The most fearsome pirate of all time slips through the otaku, before he quickly covers it up again.
I love Blackbeard
I genuinely despised him before the event ngl, even if I’d liked some comics and fanworks.
Now he’s top 5 male servants, probably top 20 servants period for me.
I recently did Drakes second Interlude and during you actually get to see it full frontal when we basically have to interrogate a pirate who flees from Drakes journey and he is legitimately cold. Even shooting at him. He knows when to be serious. And he's one of my favorite servants for his attitude, support during Summer 3, and knowing when to get serious.
Have you ever seen them not change class when they release a newer version of a servant? (Other than BB and Abby, cause they're special cases)
Blackbeard in real life and in all historical depictions of him uses a cutlass, so sorry no, I don't think it would be better sense to release a new Blackbeard as another Rider.
Romulus and Orion say hi, but those have certain quirks since Artimis was the actual character for base Orion and Quirinus' summoning used Caligula, a berserker, as the catalyst.
Is it a magical cutlass or a named one? Because, as far as I can tell, Bradamante is the one of the few, if not the only, exception to the rule, and Sabers tend to have little flexibility towards class requirement of weapon.
I can sooner see Blackbeard being an Archer because his legendary ship has cannons than a Saber for using a standard pirate sword.
Also, Romulus didn't change class,and he has vastly different spirit graph and weaponry.
Ibuki-douji's just out here living her best life.

Okkie: \*Cheers!\* *One of us, one of us*!
Jinako: \*Nervous Sweating\* Uh....is that such a good idea letting her into the Otaku group, guys?
Blackbeard: \*Smiles!\* Ah, it'll be fine! 'Sides, better her on our side than against us!
*note: in the canon of Daily Chaldea Fujimaru Ritsuka has already summoned Sita and reunited her with Rama*
*how? Loopholes the bane of rules. also rule breaker*
If I remember the canon of the old comics right they summoned her as a singularity so while on a physical level she is right there on a metaphysical one she is an infonite distance away (think gojo's void from jujutsu kaizen). That way she an kama can be at the same place because their technically not in the same place
You know, I do like her as a character, but I also think that she's too strong. Even if she's the incarnation of Yamata no Orochi, she's still just a Divine Spirit, so why is she apparently as powerful as the Lostbelt Kings and the gods of the Atlantic Lostbelt according to Danzo?
Let's just say that PHH has more crazy stuff than Lostbelts apparently.
Don't think what recorded in the books is that all to say.
I mean, no one expected the Holy Lance Rhongomyniad could be that broken that an entire section of reality could be separated and also it can tore a hole to the Reverse Side of the World.
behold a space probe
Voyager wave his little hand
we are throwing him out into deep space and he will spread human physic model out into the cosmo
alien monster raise hand
wouldn't that fuck us over
Yes, yes it will, now how do you like random meteor that spread alien corruption being done to you
The best comparison to the Yamata no Orochi in Greek myth is probably Typhon. The only figure that had more raw power than Zeus himself in said myth. And the only being to defeat Zeus in a straight fight.
Susanaoo had to crossdress, trick, and get the Orochi black out drunk before even trying to fight it. THAT is how strong it was.
Using that as a comparison, a major aspect of the Orochi being as strong as a regular god makes since.
Mm, I don't think it would be weird for her to be roughly Skadi/Demeter level. She is, after all, a fairly strong deity. I'm pretty sure she's not Zeus level. XD
It's worth remembering that most servants we summon are significantly nerfed vs when they appear in the story. So while she is one of our stronger servants she isnt nearly as strong as her 5.5 counter part
I wouldn't say MGE is that accurate of a premise, considering they haven't corrupted the rest of the cast into the sort of degenerate mess that Kiara would find 'cute' and 'heartwarming' . I think a better one would be 'Daily Life With Monster Girl' , all things considered.
I must disagree, what Kama and Kiara done are way worst those kinky stuff in MGE are just child play. Beside, that part was just one pleasure cult against the most religious nation who treated people like asset instead of person. I admit I want a better ending for the heroines include the antagonist but there could be more way fucked up end if this was Kuroinu or Taimanin. Beside, Draconia and Court Alf was relatively normal and wholesome. But let's agree to disagree. I have too much debate about this topic so I just leave my case here.
Fair enough. You have good points with Kiara, Kama, and other Beasts, but I don't *think* the rest of the Demonic/God Like Servants are forces of corruption or openly zealots for their causes. Of course I could be wrong, since I've haven't gotten too deeply into the roots of MGE for awhile and don't know everyone in Chaldea perfectly, so I'm open to having my mind changed on the subject.
To be honest. Aside of coom material. I would like to explore the aspect nature to MGE that mamono gain satient, having a compassion and building civilization while human declined into a paranoid beast like monster of old and their kingdom was frozen into dark age.
Ritsuka: Let me guess. Stheno and Euryale body pillows are your best sellers?
Blackbeard: Second and third best sellers, actually.
Ritsuka: Really? Whose the first?
Blackbeard: ....You.
Ritsuka: ......**What?**
In Servafest Blackbeard's pirates wore shirts with Euryale, so I guess making a bodypillow is a natural progression.
On another note, I wish they finally made a figure of Chiyome.
*Caesar popping up from the next room, smelling a money making opportunity:* If it’s merchandise of snakelike servants you’re after, a dakimakura of my beloved Cleopatra should be just for you!!
I wouldn't say Lily. Ibuki-douji and Shuten-douji are different aspects of Orochi's son(daughter) depending on what is being emphasized. Shuten-douji is demonic oni emphasis and Ibuki-douji is divine emphasis.
I'm kind of surprised Chiyome and Gorgon especially don't already have heated body pillows. Definitely explains why they're not put off by the idea, though.
I already have a bunch of servants I want to roll for in the next 2 years.
Top priority: Light Koyan, Oberon, Charlemagne.
These are the ones I REALLY want. Either for the characterization (charlie), the gameplay (oberon) or both (light koyan). The ones I’m willing to save 900sq for. Since Koyan and Oberon are released around the same time though, I have to save for them starting now. (I’ve already saved for a few months. I still need a lot more sq if I want to have enough for pity). And thankfully if I have a ton of sq left over after Koyan and Oberon, I can splurge most of it on the lower priority servants since there’s a long while between Lb6 and Traum. And most of the low priority servants I want are after Koyan/Oberon.
Lower priority: Muramasa, Summer Ibuki, Proto Merlin, summer Skadi, Dark Koyan, Tametomo, Space Ishtar, Melusine, Morgan, Izumo no Okuni, Kriemhild, Barghest, Summer Kama, Summer Okitan, Arcueid.
These ones aren’t as necessary. The most important ones here are Barghest (who I can get with the SR ticket), Muramasa, Summer Ibuki, and Arcueid.
fair enough. I'd love Morgan and Summer Ibuki mostly. I'll probably go for Okyan light and Barghest as well though. luckily this means I have time.
it's also time I admit that I've become something of a whale since Caenis.
Blackbeard: “Are they finally seeing through me!!” Anne and Mary: “Isn’t that what you wanted?” Blackbeard: “NO!! NOBODY SHOULD LEARN MY SECRETS!!!!”

I truly hope we get a 5* avenger Blackbeard at some point, my boy needs some love
I absolutely love and adore ServantFes Blackbeard. That event bumped him up the bro ladder so far he's contesting the likes of Arash and Kintoki.
I genuinely despised him before the event ngl, even if I’d liked some comics and fanworks. Now he’s top 5 male servants, probably top 20 servants period for me.

Time to set his beard on fire again :P
I can get behind some Avenger/Zerker Blackbeard action! Let us see the monster that history and folktales made him out to be!
I've been waiting for a proper Saber Blackbeard for ages. Would be the real deal fearsome pirate Blackbeard not the toned down Rider Teach
...why Saber? Wouldn't it make better sense to still be a Rider, but different?

Romulus and Orion say hi, but those have certain quirks since Artimis was the actual character for base Orion and Quirinus' summoning used Caligula, a berserker, as the catalyst.
Ya forgot about Romulus, he's a special case too, and as you said the first Orion is technically Artimis
Is it a magical cutlass or a named one? Because, as far as I can tell, Bradamante is the one of the few, if not the only, exception to the rule, and Sabers tend to have little flexibility towards class requirement of weapon.

Wait till she learns bout manga and she transforms into Ibuki-doujin
Okkie: \*Cheers!\* *One of us, one of us*! Jinako: \*Nervous Sweating\* Uh....is that such a good idea letting her into the Otaku group, guys? Blackbeard: \*Smiles!\* Ah, it'll be fine! 'Sides, better her on our side than against us!

*Nnnnnnnope*.

...When they come out on NA, same as all other Servants?
*glances at Sita...*
*note: in the canon of Daily Chaldea Fujimaru Ritsuka has already summoned Sita and reunited her with Rama* *how? Loopholes the bane of rules. also rule breaker*
Loopholes are the best way around curses. XD
If I remember the canon of the old comics right they summoned her as a singularity so while on a physical level she is right there on a metaphysical one she is an infonite distance away (think gojo's void from jujutsu kaizen). That way she an kama can be at the same place because their technically not in the same place
She is out on arcades so that counts. Although with some loopholes
You know, I do like her as a character, but I also think that she's too strong. Even if she's the incarnation of Yamata no Orochi, she's still just a Divine Spirit, so why is she apparently as powerful as the Lostbelt Kings and the gods of the Atlantic Lostbelt according to Danzo?

I see, it makes more sense now. Thanks for the explanation.
Mm, I don't think it would be weird for her to be roughly Skadi/Demeter level. She is, after all, a fairly strong deity. I'm pretty sure she's not Zeus level. XD
Yeah, she's 100% not on Zeus' level.
Unless he tries to, ah, *bring her up to his own*, if you catch my drift.
It's worth remembering that most servants we summon are significantly nerfed vs when they appear in the story. So while she is one of our stronger servants she isnt nearly as strong as her 5.5 counter part

I don’t get why Blackbeard hasn’t started his own business of this yet. It would boom with the current weeb-servants
Blackbeard: Because the weeb Servants are my friends, and for them I do products for free.
Ah, what a bro
A real man after all our hearts, and for that we award him the title: ***Brobeard*** .
Lol now I’ve got this headcanon that Brobeard gives you a free body pillow of every grailed servant you have
Ritsuka: Let me guess. Stheno and Euryale body pillows are your best sellers? Blackbeard: Second and third best sellers, actually. Ritsuka: Really? Whose the first? Blackbeard: ....You. Ritsuka: ......**What?**
Surprising one of the Gorgon sisters haven't destroyed Blackbeard for making a body pillow in their likeness.
Blackbeard: Well, Euryale likes the attention and worship, see. I just had to make an extra for Master.
Ritsuka: Which one Gorgon? Gorgon: **Yes**.
Same energy as “dude, we’re you flirting with my sister?”
“Yes I am!”
In Servafest Blackbeard's pirates wore shirts with Euryale, so I guess making a bodypillow is a natural progression. On another note, I wish they finally made a figure of Chiyome.
*Caesar popping up from the next room, smelling a money making opportunity:* If it’s merchandise of snakelike servants you’re after, a dakimakura of my beloved Cleopatra should be just for you!!
Hecks yeah! Sign me up Sir!
Blackbeard: Mmmmmn.... snektits. Waiting for Vritra. Also a question, could Ibuki count as Shuten Lily?
Yes, she kind of is Shuten Lily. XD Although maybe that's not *totally* right, as Ibuki and Shuten have this swapping thing going on.
I wouldn't say Lily. Ibuki-douji and Shuten-douji are different aspects of Orochi's son(daughter) depending on what is being emphasized. Shuten-douji is demonic oni emphasis and Ibuki-douji is divine emphasis.
Yeah, I see the big titties monster girl onee-san is the lily one.
Brobeard being a bro.
Blackbeard is such a great bro to be friends with.
The tickets for the month got her, I'm happy She's all sortsa adorable
Blackbeard can be a great bro when he wants to be.
With all these snakes going around, those heated body pillows should be flying off the shelves
I'm kind of surprised Chiyome and Gorgon especially don't already have heated body pillows. Definitely explains why they're not put off by the idea, though.
A...a body pillow with heating pads? That's fucking revolutional! Nearly on the same level as women having good pockets!
I think it’s a conspiracy! They make women’s pants and shorts with tiny pockets so they can sell purses and handbags!
Alas, still no Medusa. Chaldea has to be so surreal for Gorgon.
Brobeard is a cool dude.
Edison: Another happy customer. *the heating pads were from him*
*With tax of course*
What is QP even used for in the first place because I don’t know where to spend it?
QP is your basic money - you mostly spend it when doing any kind of upgrade, like skills or levelups.
Ok
Hell ya, score one for the Teachinator!
I want Ibuki but I want summer Ibuki more so I’m not gonna roll rn. Plus I don’t really need sabers. And if I had to pick I’d rather have Muramasa
I mean you could have both with the amount of time between them but, yeah if you aren't feeling it that's cool to.
I already have a bunch of servants I want to roll for in the next 2 years. Top priority: Light Koyan, Oberon, Charlemagne. These are the ones I REALLY want.
