** If Illya never happened, then Miyu never went to her world -- and thus never used the power of the Child of God. Cue Miyu ripping through Giant King!Darius' hand by invoking her '''[[VideoGame/FateGrandOrder Third]] [[Characters/FateGrandOrderCastersGToM Ascension]]'''.
*** The order of operations here must be appreciated. In [[AllThereInTheManual FGO Materials]], Miyu's Third Ascension is stated to be a WhatIf of Miyu accepting her true nature as the Child of God, something the Materials also state should be ''impossible'': Miyu's Child of God powers were used up in the trip to Illya's world, but if Miyu had ''not'' been sent on the trip by Shirou and never met Illya or Sapphire, she would've simply died in Darius' ritual. But with Illya having pulled her RetGone, the Counter Force is forced to adjust for Miyu still being alive with Sapphire in hand -- [[BeyondTheImpossible we're in that impossible scenario right now, and Miyu knows it.]] Well played, Hiroyama.

** This culminates in Miyu using the authority granted by winning the war to invoke her inner Holy Grail for a mass summon, calling six Servants to her side -- and they're ''not'' Class Card Servants. Pandora smugly points out how ''utterly screwed'' Darius is as we've suddenly jumped from ''Grand Order'' to ''[[VisualNovel/FateStayNight stay night]]'', the BigBad now facing a collective assault from the '''actual''' Servant versions of Cú Chulainn, Cursed Arm Hassan, Medea, Medusa, Heracles, ''and'' Altria.
* ''3rei'' #73: Darius realizes the Heroic Spirits only have enough mana for one major strike, confident that they're all one-trick ponies. He vastly underestimates that it's all they ''need''. The Noble Phantasms of six Heroic Spirits at once '''utterly destroy''' the Giant King, Darius' previous bluster about "crushing Heroic Spirits with his bare hands" giving way to panic; he only has a few seconds of feebly reaching for Pandora's Box before he's ripped out of his oversized puppet by Cursed-Arm Hassan. It's a refreshing reminder of how strong Servants are ''supposed'' to be in ''Fate'' when they're not tied to all the baggage from ''stay night'''s setting -- [[PunyEarthlings those born of man do not pick a fight with a Servant unless they want to die]].
** ...But where's Emiya in all this? Turns out there was a little mess involving Shirou and Sakura to take care of first. Sakura's heart was never really ripped out by Shinji; it was instinctually sent to Imaginary Numbers Space for protection, which Shirou finds and restores, bringing Sakura back to life and lucidity. She returns the favor by using the Rule Breaker copy she stole from Chloe to purge Emiya's corruption. By some sort of miracle, Shirou and Sakura saved each other!

** And because of that, Emiya ended up summoned at the Emiya household instead. He doesn't mind: [[BadassBoast Darius is still well within sniping range]].

* ''3rei'' #73: Darius puts on a bravado when he realizes the Heroic Spirits only have enough mana for one major strike. Sure enough, he vastly underestimates that it's all they ''need''; within a single chapter the Giant King has been dragged out of the Pithos-void, lost an arm, been half-petrified, had its chest exploded, and been cut in half. It's a refreshing reminder of how strong Servants are ''supposed'' to be in ''Fate'' when they're not tied to all the baggage from ''stay night'''s setting -- freak of magus nature or not, Darius is still a mortal man, and [[PunyEarthlings mortal men do not pick a fight with a Servant unless they want to die]].
** Sakura turns out to have phased her heart into Imaginary Number Space, which Shirou manages to find and replace to bring her back as her lucid self, albeit seemingly at the cost of his own life due to his own body and mind reaching their limit due to overuse of the Archer Card. However...
** Miyu's summoning was curiously missing one Servant, because as it turns out, Heroic Spirit EMIYA was summoned near where the other heroes are, giving him time to lend a Projection of Rule Breaker to save Shirou before fires Hrunting on Darius as Cursed Arm Hassan's Zabaniya tears Darius out from the Giant King into the open.
*** Actually, the Rule Breaker Sakura used on Shirou is the one she stole from Kuro.
** Darius desperately tries to stop Hrunting by using all his energy to convert his arms into spines to stop the attack. He manages to stop the attack just short of it connecting with him, only for Miyu to line up one last attack to push the arrow through and finish the madman off.

* The entire fight against Saber Class Card.

* ''3rei'' #72: Darius is still trying to rip a hole in reality with Pandora's Box, and he's gotten wise that the heroes are still clinging to life. After having her memories of Illya jogged by Beatrice, Miyu decides to respond by ''ripping a hole in reality right back'' by abusing the fact that Illya is being erased from the timeline: if Illya never happened, then Miyu never went to her world -- and thus never used the power of the Child of God. Cue Miyu ripping through Giant King!Darius' hand by invoking her '''[[VideoGame/FateGrandOrder Third]] [[Characters/FateGrandOrderCastersGToM Ascension]]'''.

Well played, Hiroyama.

* Chapter 22, Bazett charging [[StormOfBlades the Gate of Babylon]]; getting stabbed multiple times including her heart; then [[http://www.mangahere.com/manga/fate_kaleid_liner_prisma_illya_2wei/v01/c022/04.html using the pain and blood as a sacrifice]] to [[http://www.mangahere.com/manga/fate_kaleid_liner_prisma_illya_2wei/v01/c022/6.html a resurrection rune]] to ''[[http://www.mangahere.com/manga/fate_kaleid_liner_prisma_illya_2wei/v01/c022/13.html keep going]]'' and [[http://www.mangahere.com/manga/fate_kaleid_liner_prisma_illya_2wei/v01/c022/19.html ripping Gilgamesh's heart out.]] Gilgamesh survives, because he's [[StoryBreakerPower hax]] (because he's using all the mana he drained from the leylines to regenerate himself); but for a non-Servant (or a non-Magical Girl), Bazette is an absolute '''BEAST'''. (Really, had she actually been in the [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight 5th Grail War]]; Gil would have been dead on the floor in ''seconds'' before he could even hope to deploy Ea in retaliation, a feat that nobody else could accomplish.)

*** Even before that Chloe forging and using broken Excalibur with Avalon as an opening attack against Gilgamesh. It was constantly pointed out in the original time-line and other series that it would take all of Archer's abilities just to manifest it momentarily and it was beyond his scope to even attempt to twist it, and she used both noble phantasm as ammunition in a second without even taxing her. Sure, it didn't even scratch Gilgamesh because he had the "Shield of the Gods" an anti-divinity defense, but it was still the second most broken technique in the franchise.

** Not to mention this Shirou is one of the ''very few'' people in ''the entire Nasuverse'' at this point to make an unambiguously successful wish using the Holy Grail (others being Maris Billy and Solomon in ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder''). Though in his case, it went above and beyond the wish he asked of it - Miyu was sent to a world where she not only found new friends and adoptive family who cared for her, and also found happiness with them, those friends were also loyal enough to go through hell and back to save her, but also determined to save her world as well without sacrificing her to do it.

* Everything appears to have gone down shit creek without a paddle. Miyu appears to have been turned into a Grail by Darius and swallowed by him. The world has ended, and only Illya, Tanaka and Gil are left. But that doesn't stop them from coming up with a plan to save the world by ''sending Illya's consciousness into the past'', which a method that is basically [[VideoGame/FateGrandOrder rayshifting]]. Illya somehow manages to receive a mysterious box from Darius' past self from before his noble self started degrading, and decides to go back to Pandora's original time period to befriend her, in hopes of changing the past from a point in time where history wasn't established, knowing that she would lose everything in the process. This has an immediate effect on the point in time before the world ends - Miyu has somehow ''survived'' (declaring that she'll take back Illya despite not even remembering her face or name), and it's implied Pandora's outlook has already changed.
