* AdaptationalBadass: Mild example. Compared to F/SN-Gilgamesh who was an average swordsman and whose preferred combat style is to simply shoot everything to death, Proto-Gilgamesh actually prefers to deal with his opponents up close and personal (with his version of the Gate of Babylon acting as a sort of sidearm) thus averting disadvantage that his counterpart had when put against other Servants in the melee department. He's even good enough to give Saber a hard time as seen in the OVA.

* TheOmnipotent: Referred to as such during ''Fragments''. This is due to her innate connection to the Root since birth, a trait shared only by none other than [[LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai Ryougi Shiki]], whose third personality is considered to be omnipotent as well. If not due to certain restrictions, Manaka actually has the capacity to grant Saber's wish herself.

* StoryBreakerPower: Being one of [[LightNovel/KaraNoKyoukai two]] of the only known characters to be directly connected to the Root since birth, Manaka's omnipotence earns her a spot as one of the most powerful beings to exist in the Nasuverse. She's all but stated to be stronger than her own Servant ''at least'', has mastered all forms of magecraft that far exceed those that existed during the Age of the Gods, and legitimately has the capacity to grant Saber's wish herself if not for her low magic circuit count, the Counter Force's existence, and the fact that Camelot's fall is under a Quantum Timelock.

While she loses control of Norma at the entrance of the Labyrinth's fourth floor because of the Beast recalling her to her home world, she would later return to help Norma destroy that instance of the Holy Grail.
