* RetGone: In her 1st and 2nd ascension, her 3rd Bond line talks about her crocodile Mikey. He works very hard with them, but "doesn't seem to love them much." And then during her 3rd and 4th Ascension, Super Bunyan wonders who this Mikey character is that we're asking her about.

Spelling/grammar fix(es)


...Now what really qualifies her for being an Alter Ego? While she begins with being just assisted by her old crocodile companion Mike, her Third Ascension brings her back to her younger days in exchange of being accompanied by the two Servants who were created around the same time she first appeared. [[WritingAroundTrademarks To avoid any problems]] they are simply called the film making bunnygirl Rider and the gloomy government spy Assassin, though any similarities to the film director Creator/GeorgesMelies and the FBI director J. Edgar Hoover are bit hard to just ignore.\\\

* FightingClown: Most of Super Bunyan's animations in her first two Ascensions has her performing various outdoor activities such as cutting down trees, chopping lumber by throwing her axe into one, throwing acorns, or creating a sand sculpture of a typical depiction of Paul Bunyan.

* NeverSmileAtACrocodile: Instead of her blue ox Babe, she is accompanied with a baby gator named Mike, or Mikey as she likes to call him. The exact relation he has to Bunyan is at first left vague, but he isn't described fondly. [[spoiler:Mike is actually Mike Fink, a FolkHero who is part of the various folk tales that has built Super Bunyan Spirit Origin. He hates how a person who never existed like Paul Bunyan gets to have all of the attention, and backstabs her when the Singularity is about to be finished.]]

* PaperThinDisguise: Rider's specialty is to create cheaply-made costumes that still are able to fool others. She gets Assassin infiltrate the Treasure Ship by slapping mouse ears into her hat and having her wear a mouse tail with an obvious wire to keep it up as a disguise, and it actually works.

One minor fix, and few more tropes from her dialogue.


*DefrostingIceQueen: Her bond lines certainly have that feel to them. At first being rather cold and dismissive to the protagonist, with her line about Master-Servant relationship claiming she views Master as just random person who knows Yu. By the time of Bond line 4, her Master-Servant relationship line changes to actually considering her relationship with master a healthy and wholesome one. Then by the time of Bond 5, she seems comfortable showing her lazier side to Master, and asking him/her to give her shoulder and foot massages.



* IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHer: Her My Room line for Xiang Yu has her say that she'll make the protagonist sorry if he makes Yu Mei-Ren unhappy.

* FatalFlaw: By [[DeliberateValuesDissonance Celtic standards]], anyway, as depicted consistently in the Nasuverse, [[GreenEyedMonster jealousy]]. Manannán's incredible generosity was the highest virtue of his culture, but Celts are supposed to be open-minded about sharing "the friendship of the thighs" with each other rather than getting angry about it, and his jealousy of Cú Chulainn is the one black mark on his otherwise spotless moral record.

* GlowingEyesOfDoom: Manannan's eyes turn bright yellow whenever he gets really pissed off.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: In the Valentine Event, Bazett's personality gets absorbed into the Chocolate Tree. Manannán goes in to save her, and in order to do so; grants full access to their own Saint Graph to do so. This will result in DeathOfPersonality for this particular Servant Self.

* AchillesHeel:
** Averted when it comes to Buff Removal or Buff Block; the Fragarach Counter "buff" technically isn't considered a buff at all, and thus cannot be removed (and in fact will trigger the CounterAttack) nor can it be blocked and thus prevent her NP from going off when triggered (though the ATK Up on her NP Level and the Quick Resistance Down on her Overcharge will be blocked).
** Played straight when it comes to "Immobility" debuffs (such as Stun or Charm) and straight up dying to an attack, which will prevent the Counter from triggering. If Bazett triggers a [[BackFromTheDead Guts]] however, the Counter will then go through.



* CounterAttack: Other taunters before her have had the ability to buff themselves up or inflict debuffs on foes when hit to punish enemies for attacking them, and Bazett's former servant Aŋra has an AttackReflector as his Noble Phantasm, but Manannán is the first Servant to have the ability to outright take free attacks during the enemy turn whenever enemies attack her. Here are two [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-RiJwc8dZ0 videos]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZ7ysCiGun4 showing]] which interactions will or will not trigger the attack.

* GameplayAndStorySegregation: In ''Fate/hollow ataraxia'', it is established that Fragarach will activate if the opponent uses their "trump card" against its wielder, with Bazett using Aŋra Mainiiu's Verg Avesta to force the opponent to attack the two with their Noble Phantasm to activate Fragarach. In ''Fate/Grand Order'', however, the Fragarach Counter buff will trigger if Bazett is attacked at all by the opponent, even with regular attacks or with skills, though this is explained to be more of because being possessed by Manannán gives Bazett the ability to use it more freely. Bazett also needs to be hit first for Fragarach Counter to trigger, in contrast to Fragarach's ability to rend time to strike first if its wielder is attacked. While she does have an Evade to stop her from being hit and as such killed before she can trigger the counter, this means that the famous MutualKill between Fragarach and Gáe Bolg cannot be recreated like it originally happened.

* SharingABody: Unlike most Pseudo-Servants, the split between Bazett and Manannán is roughly half-and-half. Neither side drowns the other out, letting both human and goddess take turns being the dominant side. They can even hold a conversation this way.

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Upon reaching her second level cap increase Bazett comments that her Second Ascension outfit is "a bit plain" and that Third Ascension would be a good time to try a "more dramatic change." Then she actually reaches Third Ascension, and is horribly embarrassed by the dress Manannan puts her in.
