* HeroicSelfDeprecation: She advises against relying on her since her bad luck might mean she makes a fatal mistake. She also has a low opinion of herself as a general because she only knew tactics, not strategy, and thus didn't really have an overarching plan to deal with the British. However, she's still an inspiring leader and both her militarization of Dival and her reckless charge at William Tell act as the two main sparks to [[spoiler:begin denying Arjuna of the faith of the Indian people, causing him to lose power and divinity.]]

* AndThenWhat: During life, she had no greater plan for the future of India than just fighting the British. She only really realizes as a Servant that she never even considered if the end goal was getting the British to all leave India or maybe taking the fight to them or what. She was just resisting an oppressor.


Added DiffLines:

* NobleBigot: She really hates the British and has to make a conscious effort not to display extreme hostility to Holmes, someone who had nothing to do with India and is mostly quite polite and friendly, if a touch annoying. She does recognize that she's subconsciously but deliberately misinterpreting his neutral comments as insults and manages to cool off after that. However, if it weren't for the fact that they already had matching goals, things could have easily gotten uglier.

* AdaptationalRelationshipOverhaul: A few of her animations, voice lines and her Ascensions imply this Medusa is being influenced by Athena. If that's true then it's a far cry from the myths, where historically Athena was the one who cursed Medusa for sleeping with Poseidon in her temple.



* CommonalityConnection: Medusa and Caenis bond over their hatred of Poseidon, and talk shit about him so much they lost track of time. This is of course because in their myths [[note]]The version where Medusa was originally a beautiful woman and raped by Poseidon was made by Ovid, who wrote in in exile. He hated authority and saw the gods as representation of that and painted them as jerks. Medusa, Stheno, and Euryale were all originally monsters not human.[[/note]] they were both raped by Poseidon and so share over how much they hate him.[[note]]This is vastly different from Medusa's account in ''VisualNovel/FateHollowAtaraxia'' where a happy Medusa described Poseidon as her boyfriend, said he was the only person who was nice to her, and said that he regularly visited her and her sisters when they exiled to the Shapeless Isle and they were always happy to see him.[[/note]]

* CrusadingWidow: Trac started her rebellion to the Han Chinese after they had her husband killed.
* DeityOfHumanOrigin: Even after they killed themselves and their rebellion was crushed, Trung Sister's rebellion gave the Vietnamese people hope to stand up against China, and the two would eventually be worshiped as gods, with one story telling how they appeared in the Li Dynasty to bring an end to a drought. [[spoiler:With Dagon being seemingly invulnerable to anyone who isn't a god like himself, Da Vinci is able to hack the Grail so that the whole Singularity gets transferred into Northern Vietnam where the two get a massive fame boost and become gods to oppose Dagon.]]
* TheDividual: They are the second pair of {{sibling|team}}s to be summoned together following Castor and Pollux.
* ElementalWeapon: The two use bamboo handles that can generate blades out of water. Trac can turn her short handle into a sword and a machine gun, while Nhi can turn her long handle into a trường đao or create a rotating blade. The two can also combine their weapons to create a large pyramid shape to either stab or smash into their opponents.
* FailureHero: With their legendary status today, it's almost easy to forget that their rebellion ''failed''. Trac in particular has severe insecurity issues over this, feeling unworthy of being a proper hero, let alone an object of worship with temples to her name.
* {{Foil}}: By the end of their debut event, they become ones with [[spoiler:Dagon. The two sides are both water deities created by people's beliefs, but while Dagon was corrupted into his sea monster form by the people, Trung Sisters ascended into godhood by people's hopes. Dagon notably is jealous of the two due to how they are depicted in much greater light than he is.]]
* GreenThumb: Their Quick Card attacks before their third ascension has Trac grow bamboo spears from the ground to skewer their enemy or Nhi use a swinging log BoobyTrap after the first hit. In their third ascension they have some lotus petals and leaves floating around them. Nhi can use the [[LilyPadPlatform leaves as platforms]] to maneuver behind the enemy then attack while Trac makes an explosion of sacred lotus beneath their enemy.
* LadyOfWar: The Trung Sisters are the most famous example of female warriors in all of Vietnam's history. They were the ones who led a rebellion in opposition of the Chinese invasion of Vietnam, gaining the support of 65 towns and settlements.
* MakingASplash: Their animations feature a lot of water attacks ranging from a pyramid of water to a beam of it. This turns out to be because being worshipped as Vietnamese rain gods gives them power over water by extension, [[spoiler:which in turn allows them to counteract Dagon's control over water.]]
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Even compared to the regular anime aesthetic of the Servants in the game, the artist, take, sticks with her design style that evokes much of her previous work in the ''{{Franchise/Pokemon}}'' franchise. Even the {{Head Pet}}s of Trac and Nhi look like [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite Munna]] and [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Phanpy]].
* RedOniBlueOni: Their designs already matched the visual aspect of the "Red Oni, Blue Oni" trope. Trac, the red one, is very cheerful and energetic like a red oni while Nhi, the blue one, is more reserved and level-headed like a blue oni.
* PowerMakesYourHairGrow: With each ascension their hair becomes longer and more elaborate.
* SheIsTheKing: Trung Trac is reffered to as King instead of Queen in Japanese.
* SquareRaceRoundClass: On their first two Ascensions, they do fit into the Saber mold albeit with having a mount like a Rider would. But by Third Ascension, they drop their weapons and start using outright water magic and using their elephant companions bit more. The shift between the two Ascensions and the ambiguous nature of their elephants makes them come off as being more like Foreigners like [[spoiler:Summer BB]] than proper Sabers. [[spoiler:That being said, their debut event reveals that their Third Ascension represents the deified form of the two, meaning that they are simply fighting without being shackled down to their class.]]
* VaporWear: In their Second Ascension, their skirts are so low it is clear they are not wearing underwear.
* WarElephants: They were summoned with a matching pair of tiny elephants, who can shoot streams of water and combine into a larger elephant for a charging attack. However, while the Trungs are known for riding elephants into battle[[note]]The concept of the Trung Sisters and the elephants are actually a modern creation which is only about 200 years old, no mention of what they rode in battle were documented and oral traditions tell of them riding an iron horse when appearing in dreams.[[/note]] the Servants don't actually know who or ''what'' ''these'' elephants are..., their Bond CE implies that the elephants are the embodiment of the people's faith and love for Trưng Sisters.

->''"I am Ibuki-douji. Are you what they call a Master? I see. If you do not wish to die then it is in your best interest to humor me. My self after molting will not feel like playing around with a human as much as my current form does, after all."''

[[{{Orochi}} Yamata-no-Orochi]], a vile eight-headed serpent who was known for terrorizing Japan in the ancient days. In particular, Orochi tormented two earthly deities by demanding them to sacrifice one of their eight daughters every year to appease it. Before the eighth maiden would be sacrificed, the serpent was slain by the wandering god Susanoo. However, Orochi's legacy did not end there. Somewhere else, the accursed serpent was worshipped as Ibuki Daimyojin, the god of Mount Ibuki. And one day, a child was born as a descendant of the god, either as a direct child of it or someone who succeeded its blood.\\\

The girl was named Ibuki-Douji, a bunrei of Yamata-no-Orochi. However, you might know her better by her other name; Shuten-Douji, the oni leader of Mt. Ooe.\\\

Her existence has been teased since Shuten-Douji's introduction, and she first appeared in Shuten's second Interlude where she hijacks her body. She made her first in-person appearance in "Hell Realm Mandala, Heian-kyo" as an antagonist. She later went on to become an ally of Chaldea within the story-important Tunguska Sanctuary event.

* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: Iori is shocked and amazed if you have numerous other Japanese warriors of great renown like Inshun or Tajima-no-kami present at Chaldea. This is partially due to his admiration of warriors like them and partially due to his [[BloodKnight desire to fight them]].



* MirrorMatch: At one point in the collab as Iori is wrestling with his lack of power compared to Servants; he is attacked by himself. The copy acts like he has Iori's memories and turns into a Black Samurai mob. Upon killing it; he regains knowledge of the Tsubame Gaeshi that he had learned to surpass his father.

* TheForceIsStrongWithThisOne: Iori is not familiar with judging foes by their magical energy due to only dabbling in magecraft given his focus on swordsmanship. He instead evaluates the danger someone poses by the "kenki" or the "pressure"/"aura" they give off from their presence. Stronger foes exude a greater pressure than weaker ones.
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: Like his teacher, Musashi, Iori practices Niten Ichiryu. Also like Musashi, Iori is a crit-focused Buster Saber focused on single-target damage. But given the divergences in their fighting styles, Iori has a different command deck than her, as he has a QAABB to her QABBB deck, reflecting his use of magecraft in tandem with his swordsmanship. He's able to recognize Kojiro by the feeling he gives off alone [[spoiler:despite Kojiro being decades younger physically than when they met in life.]]

* SheepInSheepsClothing: Iori is kind and level-headed in his demeanor and actions. But the collab event is a follow up to the "Entreat the Darkness" ending. So everyone who knew him from the Waxing Moon Ritual is afraid he'll [[spoiler:wish for an eternal war to hone his swordsmanship in]] if he gets his hands on the Waxing Moon again. But he defies expectation when [[spoiler:he simply gives it to the protagonist as he can't think of a wish he wants granted.]] He continues to be a force for good as a Servant of Chaldea after the event, though he admits to wondering how good of a person he really is considering his actions from before his amnesia.

Added DiffLines:

* MagicKnight: Downplayed. He's a swordsman through and through, but his Wind Stance has him use magecraft with his left hand while continuing to wield a sword in his right. He primarily uses this to cast fireballs, either to engulf his foes or his sword in flames before he swings. However, when compared to his home game, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5IF_Vl9HAA Iori's elemental stances]] actually seem to use the elements they're associated with.
* MasterSwordsman: Iori's swordsmanship is superb even by the standards of the OlderIsBetter Servants. Most notably, he achieves the same [[spoiler:Tsubame Gaeshi]] technique as his mentor, [[spoiler:Sasaki Kojiro]].

Badass Normal isn't a relative trope. Being a heroic spirit means he's not a Badass Normal, no matter how much more illustrious his competition is.


* BadassNormal: Definitely compared to every other Saber on this page. In a way, this is also what he can be if you build a team setup that maximizes his potential. He has no damaging Noble Phantasm, his skills are quite generic, and the best he can do to cause damage will be using his regular attack records. But if you do all these to allow him to cause blunt damage and crits (particularly with his Buster cards), you're pretty much engaging in CherryTapping.

* BlueAndOrangeMorality: She's Chaotic Good compared to Shuten's Chaotic Evil, but while Shuten is a career villain who knowingly wrecked havoc during the Heian Period for hedonistic purposes, Ibuki indulges in her whims both friendly and ferocious as permissible under her divine station. Shuten might destroy a village to be cruel. Ibuki could do it completely by accident and not care in a way that wouldn't seem callous to a human being.
