Tropes:

  • A Day in the Limelight: For Oda Nobukatsu, as it deals with him needing to work on his own without his sister Nobunaga and rebuild the civilization of Yamatai.
  • Advancing Boss of Doom: Seven giant Nobu haniwa called "Gods of Disaster" are dragging themselves to Yamatai destroying all in their path. They serve as the raid bosses in this event.
  • Anti-Frustration Features: Since the "welfare" of this event is Nobukatsu, a one star servant in the FP gacha, all masters received two daily 10 summons pulls from the FP pool for the duration of the event, not only giving you a fair chance of getting Nobukatsu for free, but also allowing you to use his extra copies for Rare Prisms, as Nobukatsu is technically an event reward servant.
  • Big Damn Heroes: Mysterious Heroine X, Chacha, Nagayoshi, Li Shuwen (Assassin), and Okita Alter finally arrive after being sent in earlier to help by Chaldea to help the crew fight against the Gods of Disaster.
  • Debut Queue: Himiko, Saitou Hajime and Oda Nobukatsu debut as limited servants.
  • Introduced Species Calamity: The second part is about an emergency rice Da Vinci gave to the backup Servants that were left behind. The rice grew to takeover Yamatai and outcompete the other plants, and now Chaldea must harvest and contain the excess rice. In the end, Da Vinci produces a new type of rice that will both replace the old type and return to normal growth rates so this all goes away, but they need to manually plant it into every existing rice field.
  • Laughably Evil: The "Gods of Disaster" are masses of animosity made from the souls of ancient beasts and inhuman creatures that once threatened Yamatai before being slain, and they're the size of mountains destroying everything in their path, but they're also shaped like giant Nobu haniwa complete with Pokémon Speak. The cast comment on both their threat and ridiculousness, and even Serizawa doesn't deny their farcical nature but claims that just makes it better, since it will make Yamatai's destruction all the sweeter that it was by such insane events.
  • Mechanically Unusual Class: Usually, a spotlight servant from an Event is either a Welfare Servant or has a limited time in a Saint Quartz Banner. Nobukatsu, unusually, is a limited Servant in the Friend Point Gacha.
  • The Nameless: Himiko's brother, who gave up his name along with his human body.
  • The Remnant: The end of Part 2 reveals there's one last God of Disaster running around Yamatai and eating all the rice it can, and to Chaldea's shock Okita Alter, Li Shuwen, and Ryouma and Oryo are fighting to protect it. It's revealed after the fight this God of Disaster was formed from the weakest creatures of Kunakoku and was unable to return to the light like its brethren, so they were helping it perform the segaki with rice so it would be able to pass on peacefully.
  • Something We Forgot: At the end of Part 1, the protagonist is wondering if they forgot something important. When Himiko tells them that they got back to Chaldea without rayshifting, they realize they left a few Servants behind.
