History Recap / FateGrandOrderEvent34NewYearEvent2019

* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Chief Snake detaches himself from the Nue during the final battle because Goredolf not only didn't blame him for his part in opening the offering box, but covered for him so that he wouldn't be thrown out of the inn.

* BeyondTheImpossible: While they don't quite manage to genuinely get all of them (although the approximations they gather are rather close), the protagonists manage to attain two of infamous five dowry treasures of Kaguya: the stone begging bowl of Buddha and a swallow's cowry shell.

* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Chief Snake detaches himself from the Nue during the final battle because Goredolf not only didn't blame him for his part in opening the offering box, but covered for him so that he wouldn't be thrown out of the inn. This retroactively explains why he calls Goredolf "Gordy-Poo", and even looks at him longingly in his final moments, to Goredolf's confusion.

* ChubbyChaser: Chief Snake has a thing for "Gordy-Poo", and even looks at him longingly in his final moments to Goredolf's confusion.

* SomethingWeForgot: The GUDAGUDA group learn only late after their pillow fight that Izo didn't come with them to the inn because Oryou and Ryouma failed to invite him when Ryouma mistakenly thought that Oryou already did so and vice versa.

* SayingTooMuch: Fionn and team trick the bamboo cutter into admitting, while he thinks he's calling ''them'' out, that the treasures they produce for him can't be the same treasures he left in his pouch because there ''wasn't anything in the pouch to begin with.'' While Beni-Enma is right there to hear his confession.

* TheBattleDidntCount: The curse left behind by Musashi in the hot springs will only accept defeat by the hands of a DualWielding Saber and will refuse to be dispelled by anything else, outright declaring that the opposition only won thanks to "class affinity". In-gameplay, Diarmuid Saber is a RequiredPartyMember who is the only one that can disperse the otherwise-permanent OneHitPointWonder Guts buff the Shadow Servant Musashi gets while on her second health bar. In other words, if he dies before that happens, the fight becomes unwinnable and you'll either have to reset or tough it out in order to perform a full revive on the party.

* ADayInTheLimelight: After spending most of his other event appearances PlayedForLaughs, Fionn gets a chance to shine as a major ally and show off his positive qualities as both a warrior and intelligent worker. He reveals he already figured out the bamboo cutter is in fact trying to con Beni-Enma out of the inn and had everyone both restore the Enma-tei to its full glory along with collecting the five treasures so that he could engineer the necessary scenario to confront and force the bamboo cutter to admit his guilt.
* ChubbyChaser: Chief Snake has a thing for "Gordy-Poo", and even looks at him longingly in his final moments.

* NoodleIncident: Musashi once visited the inn, got drunk and started going after handsome men and beautiful women, and got into a fight with Beni-Enma that wrecked the hot springs before being driven off. And she left behind a curse that refuses to fall unless beaten by another DualWielding Saber, or else she'll declare TheBattleDidntCount and they cheated with class affinity.

** Jing Ke, at one point, asks the protagonist if they saw each other recently. Clearing Lostbelt 3, where is a Main Ally, is a requirement to play the event.

** Fionn, in TheSummation, is satisfied that the case was tied up neatly and that his reputation in Chaldea has improved. This is in line with his 3rd Buff released in the same month of the event. All his buffs at that point has transformed him from a very poor Lancer to a solid, even great, Arts farmer.

* SayingTooMuch: Fionn and team trick the bamboo cutter into admitting, while he thinks he's calling ''them'' out, that the treasures they produce for him can't be the same treasures he left in his pouch because there ''wasn't anything in the pouch to begin with.''

* TheMole: The long-term guests Moneyed Monkey, Chief Snake, and Magistrate Tiger turn out to be separate components of the Nue.

* ShoutOut: The five treasures the bamboo cutter lost at the inn are [[PublicDomainArtifact the same treasures]] Kaguyahime demanded her suitors find in ''The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter'', though as pointed out by Kojiro (who gives the protagonist the final treasure in the swallow's cowry), none of the suitors succeeded in finding ''one'' of them, which makes it odd that the bamboo cutter would just so happen to have all of them. As it turns out, he ''never'' had them and simply lied to Beni-Enma about it (which she couldn't prove otherwise since she never saw inside the pouch they supposedly were in), collaborating with the monkey, snake, and tiger who were in on the scam.

* MovingTheGoalposts: Fionn notes after confirming he suspects the bamboo cutter has been conning Beni-Enma that even if they provide the five treasures, he will simply use the logic of "well, they're certainly the same types, but they're not MY five treasures, so they're not worth what I lost" to weasel out of freeing Beni-Enma of her "debt". As such, Chaldea will need to show Beni-Enma without a shadow of a doubt that he has been lying to her.

** As it turns out, Beni-Enma herself is suffering from this due to having to yearly pay off the interest to a bamboo cutter that lost five priceless family heirlooms while staying at the inn five hundred years ago and blames her for possibly stealing them. As noted by several characters, however, there's no way she will ever be able to work off said debt short of somehow replacing the heirlooms.
