Oh shit! So that's where the Master's Mystic Code went!

When you go to the Party Screen, the button on the bottom left now shows what Mystic Code you have equipped.

I just realized it also makes it so you can Switch it so that EACH party has its own mystic code attached to it.

Lovely quality of life change
 
Okay so chapter 14 is in seven parts to represent the seven gates Ishtar had to cross in the original myth.

When you reach the first gate, Ishtar explains how there are trials you have to pass. The first one?

The gate calls you out (by name, which Ishtar thinks is strange) and asks

"Ereshikigal or Ishtar. Which one is more beautiful?"

Yeah those two are Rin alright. I can just imagine

"Eresh I need you help."
"Oh~? Princess needs my help? Anu's little Star needs the Underworld's help?"
"Yes now help me!"
"No."
"What?!"
"Underworld is my domain so pass a trial and I will listen."
"...Fine."

Later
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN ISHTAR ACTUALLY STRIPPED?! THE MADWOMAN!"

Quetzelcoatl falls for (you) because during the big fight with her, you land the finish by having Ishtar warp you 200 meters up into the air so you can do a ridiculous lucha libre move.

(You suggest the idea instead of Roman's more practical idea, but I don't think you intended for Ishtar to warp you that high up.)

You can be lame about it and be scared the entire way, or you can yell your heart out like a true suicidal moron.

If I read the next bit right, you don't die because Quetzelcoatl catches you. She asks you what the fuck you thought you were doing, and you say that you knew Quetzelcoatl would save you because she loves humanity.

Incidentally in the choice before the fight, the harder option is you saying you understand Quetzelcoatl's feelings.
------------------------
So Guda completely won over a goddess by performing a 200 meter piledriver.
Is this the new High Jump? How can other protagonists even compete with that level of stupidity and determination?

>Harem of goddesses
>Can do wrestling moves from in mid-air
>Protects the smiles of lolis
Guda is now officially the best protagonist. Shirou and Hakuno can fuck off

Oh god

If every fucking chapter from now on has a god/goddess go "I watched you do that piledriver and it really moved me" I'll never recover
------------------------
Guda is batshit insane and I love it

Spacetime Shenanigans

When Ishtar was summoned, the original plan was to only summon her. But in what Merlin thought was strange at the time, when the summoning finally succeeded the shrine maiden in charge died. This is because somehow, Ereshikigal was summoned at the same time as Ishtar. Since they were both summoned into Rin, Rin's good half and bad half split and became two separate Servants.

You can choose if you think Ereshikigal is the good side or the bad side. If you say the former, Ishtar gets super huffy.

Anyway the conversation that brought this on was Quetz pointing out that Ishtar is actually not a part of the Three Goddesses. Ereshikigal is, which both surprises Ishtar because she didn't know that and annoys her since she and Ereshkigal don't get along.

Ereshkigal is who (you) spend most of your time bonding with by the way.

So the original plan was to pull a Quetz. Make Ishtar incarnate on her Priestess. Xept because Ishtar and Eresh are near the same BOTH got pulled into one Summon. Priestess dead but Ishtar and Eresh share Rin to make it up

Of course we spend the entire Order Waifuing Ereshkigal and she isn't playable

Good going Nasu

Nasu's memed a meme too far.

 
>Ishtar doesn't want to go to the underworld and tries to run away.
>Quetzy blocks off her exit and drags her with you.

Spoiled Princess Ishtar is hilarious really

She even throws a Gigantic Boar at the team as her replacement Gullagana
 
During one of her boss fights in chapter 7, Ishtar goes into high orbit and starts trying to run away while Mashu and Merlin says that's cheating and she should fight fairly.

However, Guda/ko and Ana have an idea.

Ana soars all the way up to Ishtar and kicks her off Maana.

Ishtar then proceeds to fall all the way back down to the city in a crash. A very wet and nasty sounding crash actually...I'm surprised Rin's body is still alive actually...

"Q~~..."

She doesn't regain conciousness again until nighttime.

Is this the Bullying Rin/Ishtar chapter?
 

"Listen here Lily, in the future that man would give you a penis which would lead to the fall of Camelot and us stabbing our son who is actually a girl and is a clone of us made by our disgruntled aunt."

"Merlin now is not"
"I won't have you being as stupid as Mordred I didn't raise you for that."
"You didn't raise me at all it was Sir Ector!"
"Guys. Tiamat."
"No no go on this is hilarious really."

Sister, actually. Disgruntled sister.

Whole mess would have been solved anyway is Arthur did as Mordred asked and let Mordred handle the mess in Rome.

Mordred was already top knight by then. Mordred Gawain Lancelot those were the Best Knights of Camelot

At any other time Mordred would have launched a rebellion or try to be sneaky sneaky

Heck one version of the myth has Mordred leaving and being King of Another Country. Arthur still doesn't take him seriously

Cue war
 
Didn't one version have Mordred outright telling Arthur to not leave him at Camelot to guard it, and then Arthur saying "Don't worry man, you are cool"
Then he leaves for Rome and Mordred takes Camelot.

Cue war

Gudako's idea of contributing to a Servant battle is dropping the People's Elbow from the stratosphere?

I can get behind this.

Hakuno being male in the Extra Adaptation, I could see. Certainly, it's a less bad decision than picking Nero as his Servant.

But I will never understand Guda(k)o being male in the Grand Order Adaptation, not when the fandom has latched so powerful onto the female version. Hell, I can barely understand giving them a name that isn't Guda(k)o (he said, after having a rough time swapping between Souji Seta and Yu Narukami). The only remaining hope is that there'll be a Dojo-style omake starring Gudako in her fan-adopted personality.
 
Has the Japanese audience latched on as hard as we have?

I mean, I do see a lot of Gudako art and doujin, so I would guess so, but I'm not exactly a 2-channer, yannow?

Oh it's because Mashu is a girl. Shipping and all that.

The problem is probably the VA. As far as I can tell, everyone and their mother adores Shimazaki for being a massive Nasuverse nerd as well as for being really into his characters and being hilarious in the streams. If they went with Gudako, he wouldn't be part of the anime.

As much as anime tease yuri, actual serious lesbian relationships are rare as hen's teeth, not least because there's the whole "practice relationship" culture thing going on. So that's part of it too.

We're seven Grand Orders in and the closest we've come to an actual serious straight relationship is Marche getting jelly about Gudao fussing over lolibait of the week.

I don't think it's a problem.

Part of the issue is that – despite the two having nigh-identical dialogue choices and reactions in-game – I imagine Gudao as a fairly standard harem protagonist, complete with oh no marche don't tackle me to the ground to save me, your oppai are making my doki doki go sweatdrop (despite the fact that you're ostensibly in plate armour). Meanwhile, Gudako actually has a personality. Even if that personality is horrifying.

A more interesting option might be to totally invert Gudako as presented by the fandom – an insatiable, boisterous and egomaniacal lesbian psychopath driven insane by the gacha and her gleeful hatred of the devs. This would give you Gudao as... a gay tsundere shut-in with an excess of empathy and an obsessive love of the lore. Which seems even less likely, albeit somewhat more realistic.
