* OutdatedByCanon: The origin of Divine Ancestors. In canon, they were former Mother Earth Goddesses whose power and Authorities had been drained by the King of the End, either willingly or else upon defeat. However, because this explanation had not yet been written at the time of this fic's creation, Marcus Galen Sands instead invented the idea that their powers had been sealed by various Gods of Steel, who then took them to wife.

* TheScrappy: A lot of reviewers dislike Godou Kusanagi and consider him useless, since he hardly does anything on his own and mostly just reacts to whatever is happening. And whenever he does accomplish something or gets a power-up, the reviewers complain that he is just stealing Shirou's awesome moments.
* WhatAnIdiot: The mage who had [[SarcasmMode the wise idea]] to [[spoiler:invade the Banquet of Kings. Just the fact that the guests alone can [[CurbStompBattle curb stomp]] the invading assassins, yeah.]]
** Actually part of a supposed Gambit, since the creatures managed to steal ''something'' from the Campiones, something that can supposedly defeat them.
** At the same time however [[spoiler:the banquet ended with positive relations for the Campiones, if there is more upcoming information about this situation it can possibly culminate into a '''[[CurbStompBattle fight]]''' between [[OhCrap all four Campiones]] and the mastermind.]]

I personally like Godou, but I'm going off what several reviews say.

Added DiffLines:

* JustHereForGodzilla: Many toxic reviews say Godou Kusanagi is boring and they don't care about him, wishing he would just go away and let the fic focus on Shirou Emiya, whom the reviews say is badass and the epitome of cool.

* HilariousInHindsight: Rhongomyniad started out as a barely mentioned Noble Phantasm that had its properties invented by the author as a way of showing the many different versions of the tale of King Arthur. Come 2015-2016 side material, it has been confirmed as a Noble Phantasm that's A++ to ''EX'' Rank! He basically gave a weapon stronger than even Excalibur to Guinevere!

** In an early chapter, Hades attacks Shirou and says his wife Persephone had earlier been killed by a Campione, fueling his hatred of them. The author admitted to making that detail up for the story, then a later Campione! novel confirmed Persephone ''had'' been killed by a Campione.

1. that\'s flame bait. 2. people can see qualities in others while not being able to see those qualities in themselves/as applying to them.


* CharacterDerailment: Very minor one. One of Godou's defining character traits is that he's a CluelessChickMagnet (unless [[TheCasanova otherwise]]). So how in the hell does he come to the (COMPLETELY CORRECT) conclusion that Illya has a crush on Shirou when he can't even see that his own servants love him?
