| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Hmm new OP song....I got some mixed feelings about it though. Oh boy, the aftermath of what happened to Gilgamesh has effects on their plans. Not just him either but the people at Urk. It looks like part of their new plan to is to find Hades from the Underworld. Heh, Ishtar was rather amusing to watch this episode. Welcome back Fate/Grand Order. |
 |
| Good remix of the first OP xD Tiny Ishtar is so cute |
 |
| That moment when the very gates of hell are trolling you lmao. Also, whats the fastest way to underworld ? How about we get blasted in ? GREAT! Enough of jokes, the big sad is here. |
 |
| Fantastic episode, this was worth the wait. Interesting, I'm curious how Eresh's power affected Uruk now of all times and not before or did she just choose to reap everyone's souls now of all times? I was curious how they were gonna do the gate thing where you have to choose Ishtar or Eresh. In the game you just fight enemies depending on who you choose but I liked how they made Ritsuka choose Ishtar and then choose Eresh because it wasn't the 'correct' answer. Not sure if that's how it happened in the game since I skipped the story but I thought it was amusing, can't show favoritism as Harem Protagonist EX, am I right? Loved all the shots of Ishtar this episode, especially the one where she brushes her hair after Ritsuka chooses her at the first gate. I need a gif of that and pretty much every solo Ishtar shot from this episode. Small Ishtar is so adorable and Gil bullying her was absolutely hilarious, I laughed too much at that. XD Last scene was great and the ED is awesome as well. Cam't wait for more. |
 |
| Loving Milet for the ending. Indifferent towards OP visuals. Fun episode and I can finally enjoy the second half of Babylonia aka the best part of FGO |
 |
the new OP is bad lol wtf happened but i heard this episode was totally outsourced to studio 8-bit so thats why its not good visually but we still got some nice looking still frames like Ishtar here Ereshkigal and Ishtar are 2 sides of the same coin eh, thats nice double the waifu whenever you summon one of them lol |
| Ayy Eresh is finally here. The catfight between Eresh and Ishtar was hilarious and lol Gil finally got to properly look down on Ishtar. |
 |
| For people saying that the OP is new, it's really not. it's just the second half of the full op. kind of like how they did it for the second half of Gurann Lagann. |
| Finally! It's back, Fate stans we here. Episode was absolutely hilarious. The banter is what really makes this series great and it was perfectly done today with Gil and Ishtar, the gate's banter, etc. Loving the visuals of the new OP as well, very unique. First ED was better imo, but prover isn't bad. Can't wait for next ep. Onto MagiaReco now Come on Fuji, you know the answer was obvious! |
 |
| The OP feels really like it will only last three episodes at most. I'll wait until a certain part in the story to judge it (if by then it won't change, then I'll be disappointed) |

Visually, the new OP is really amazing, but it also reuses almost all of its characters animations. That's another indication it's a placeholder, imho |

| Holy shit! This is way funnier than the in-game cutscenes (of course), especially Eresh voicing the Gates lmao Really nice visuals of the OP |
| Honestly, Gilgamesh is carrying this show for me. He's so fucking great. If it wasn't for him, probably would've stopped watching. Good episode |
 |
| Wow, this episode was pretty good, I'm really enjoying this also really liked the op, especially the ed was great. |
 |
| Man, that ED was great, looks like I have some stitching to do. Gotta get them Rin-faces. Things are going to keep ramping up, hopefully the animation can match that. |
 |
| Tomoe in the ED 10/10 (-3-) |
| Ishtar was so cute this episode, loved it ❤️ Eresh voicing the gates was adorable. Wanted to actually see them answering all the gates, but they just skipped through it. Also, apparently all Fujimaru's interactions with Eresh were scrapped? Why? I actually expected to see Eresh before the descent to the underworld. FeelsSadMan More Quetz onee-chan please, more Ishtar blushing please, more Da Vinci please. Btw, Da Vinci became for me total waifu material after this anime. I can't get enough of her and especially her voice. Too cute. I don't get the same feel in the game. |
| Man,Istar's naked service was lame. |
| Hell yeah it's back. Honestly, the episode went way past what I expected, but ended right before I hoped it would. Damn it! xD Gotta wait next week. Also the OP omg, so many spoilers xD |
| bruh |
| Blessed episode, really enjoyed it all. It was nice to see the other servants summoned in the ED, and pretty sure the OP will change later. |

I generally play on the go and during momentary downtimes between others things so I generally just want to get to the gameplay and not be bogged down by reading the story. I've meaning to read a full story summary for FGO at some point but I've never gotten around to it. |
|
| Tiny Ishtar is so adorable. And Gil was hilarious, the way he was bullying her. I can't wait to see Eresh. New OP and ED are nice. |
 |
| wooow new ending is really good can't wait for next ep |
| Good to see the show is back. No bully Ishtar! Loved Eresh trollng Ishtar with that question haha, too bad they didn't show more gates. Looking forward to more Eresh next week ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |
 |
| They probably have variations of the Opening for the final arc Also, great episode, the Ishtar x Ereshkigal part was one of my favorite from the game |
| Visual Novels should have a place in this site, really |
| well the journey to the underworld was interesting to see |
 |
ZoroZoldyck said: Why skip the story though? That's the best part of the whole Fate franchise.. Yeah but not the best part of fgo lmao. |
|
| Nice ED and the OP is the same but different lyrics. Nice visuals btw. Babylonia is back and its continuing where the last episode left off. Ritsuka, Mash and Ishtar are venturing to the Underworld. Hilarious that they adapt the Gate trials albeit once. So Ereshkigal is the final goddess. And Gil showed up, bullying Ishtar is fun to see. With that Ereshkigal appeared. Overall nice start of the cour. To the next episode |
 |
Ishtar was drawn beautifully on this one and ye that ED will hit in the feels later on i heard  |
| Been quite a while since I've commented on an ep thread again with this cause as much as possible I wanna avoid getting spoiled since Im loving the shit out of this adaptation so far but I just gotta say... that ED was fcking beautiful! people saying it'll hit the feels later on when we find out more about the story but here I am.. getting hit hard in the heart already, and for some reason the visuals that comes with the ED just clicks. OP on the other hand was damn meh visual wise and its just the continuation of the 1st op lol. EP was nice, good comedy mixed in like Ishtar getting hit by lightning after basically threatening Fujimaru on who his answer should be and Gil playing with tiny Ishtar. |
  |
| Looks like all the budget went on Ushi and Leonidas fight hearing again the OP but the second and worse verse, even the visuals are bland a trying to imit a Shaft OP but does not suceed at all. ED on the other hands confirms this show is about Gilgamesh, and that's a good thing, the pop song doesn't sound fate at all though ... or even anime tbh. That's too much overreacting for a little bit of freezing Romani, they fought in ocean of flames before don't your remember, or even literal GODS weeks ago, low temperature isn't the most dangerous thing they could face. Good depiction of mythology here with gods trolling themselves each time they have the time to but still this show really needs to step up the bar higher to actually get me in the "feels" because for now Lord El Melloi has way more feels than Babylonia ever reached, Leonidas death did not change that. |

Exactly. Not sure how people miss this. It's pretty obvious. I kinda wish more anime did this too. I hate when an OP changes to an entirely different song. @komic err in my case the visuals are new even though it has reuse animations so its still count as new OP im sure people that says "new OP" are using the loose definition instead of a strict definition so no need to say it over and over again that people are blind here or something |
| It's good to be back! New opening visuals are pretty cool! Not going to lie, this was worth the 2 weeks wait! I mean tinny Ishtar was priceless. Especially when Gilgamesh comes in and bullies her! So finally the reveal about Eresh! It was teased in the first cour but I am glad it got mentioned at last. |

Tbh, I thought the same at first, but thinking about it it's probably a good thing. Going through all 7 would've gotten old pretty soon, since it's basically the same thing repeated 7 times. A bit. Still, there were some cute reactions from Ishtar there as I remember (been a year since I finished Babylonia), and more Ishtar is always a good thing. Especially her getting flustered and all tsundere-like. JakkoFourEyes said: hardrock13 said: Also, apparently all Fujimaru's interactions with Eresh were scrapped? Why? I actually expected to see Eresh before the descent to the underworld. FeelsSadMan Not sure what you mean. He's definitely talked with Eresh before this at various times. Ehm.... I guess I might have missed it. I mean... Now that you say it, I guess those were interactions with Eresh. I guess I was expecting her to look like Eresh, since that's how I remember it in the game. But I guess those hiccups were used as a tell for us to realize he's talking to Eresh. I was expecting her to fully change appearance to Eresh, but it seems they went for something more subtle. Means I didn't realize that from beginning. Guess it's either me being stupid or expecting it to be like in the game. Unless I missed something else? |

I've meaning to read a full story summary for FGO at some point but I've never gotten around to it. Just in case you didn't know, you can reread all story parts of each section from any singularity you've finished through 'My Room' > 'Material' > 'Main Records', so you don't necessarily have to look for it online- unless you're looking for a shorter summary of everything, of course. If you already knew about it, you can just ignore all of this, hah. To get on topic, I loved the episode from start to finish, it was very enjoyable. Didn't notice too much of a drop in animation quality personally, except for the one scene where they look down at Ereshkigal's palace and they all have some sorta ( ͡° ͟ʖ ͡°) face going on (which I thought was hilarious), but other than that, I still found it to be very pleasing to the eye. :^) I also really liked the new ED and OP, both in terms of sound and (especially) visuals. Definitely worth the wait. |
| damn, the new op and ed are really great. loved the visuals of both of them as well also, really am loving all the comedy bits between such powerful figures. this show is just pure fanservice and i'm slurping this shit like there's no tomorrow |

I don't think I'll find it in me to grind through all the story sequences so I'll probably just read a shorter summary of each arc somewhere. I'm already aware of what happens in most of them just by playing through them so even a summary might be redundant for me. Heh. xD |
