** The Oniland event itself is an entire send-up of the MagicalGirl genre, ''Franchise/PrettyCure'' in particular. The showcase Servant is Caster-class Shuten-douji, voiced by Creator/AoiYuuki (who, at the time of the event, has never been cast in any role within the ''[=PreCure=]'' franchise). Cut to late 2019 (1 year + a few months after the event), Creator/AoiYuuki ends up voicing Cure Grace/Nodoka Hanadera, the main character of the 2020 entry of ''Precure'', ''Anime/HealinGoodPrettyCure''. The Oniland event turned out rather prophetic... And furthermore, Nodoka also has elements of IllGirl and struggles with it, which is ''very'' similar to another Servant played by Creator/AoiYuuki, Okita Souji. [[Memes/FateGrandOrder "Nodoka-san, Daishouri!"?]]

* In LightNovel/FateApocrypha, after summoning Mordred, Kairi asks to confirm that she's a Saber-class servant, to which Mordred sarcastically asks if she looks like an Assassin. Kairi then jokingly comments that an armored Assassin with a sword wouldn't be so bad. Fast-forward and we now have the Grand Assassin, King Hassan, who wears a full set of heavy armor and wields a sword.

* In the Prisma Illya event, Illya mentioned that the fake Tamamo Cat's [[Creator/ChiwaSaito voice]] is very much like Kuro's. Come the rerun and Kuro is shown wearing Tamamo Cat's apron and collar.
* Fans have been clamouring for a playable version of Tiamat ever since she appeared in Babylonia. The CCC rerun gives us Kingprotea, whose later ascensions give her characteristics quite similar to Tiamat, due to having the essence of Earth Mother Goddesses. It's not exactly Tiamat, but it's close enough, we guess.

** Similarly, there has been quite a few fan-arts of a "WhatIf" of Julius Caesar as a Saber. On [[ImageBoards Danbooru]], most of them are [[GenderFlip Saberclones]].

Note that Part 1 was released on the JP server Christmas ''2016''.
** A group of heroes whose presence in the world was decided by random chance.
** They TimeTravel into shredded timelines of their own past in search for the overpowered {{McGuffin}}s.
** The purpose of collecting said items are to undo the BigBad's [[YouAreTooLate already completed]] [[WellIntentionedExtremist "Mass Destruction For The Sake Of A Better Universe"]] plan.
** The BigGood is an accomplished academic (sort of) while the main supporting heroes consists of being a patriotic figure to their country (Jeanne) and the other uses a shield as the main choice of weapon (Mash).
** Before the climatic battle begins, the patriot says a rallying speech.
** The climax has the shield hero initially go alone against the BigBad. When all hope seems lost, all of the heroes' allies from their previous adventures gather from across time and space to assist.

* Mara being a gender flip? Not the first time, ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiStrangeJourney'' has grand order beat by almost a decade. Though that Mara was less... attractive.

* The whole "how fast do you have to slap a chicken to cook it" meme has only become funnier due to Kingprotea's NP being a highly-damaging slap from her taking gigantic form.

* As noted below in the "M" folder, a lot of fans have come to the general consensus that the game's creator is none other than one Kotomine Kirei due to how much the paid gacha favors Black Keys (which are pretty much his signature weapon) and [=CEs=] with him on it. Guess who shows up as a part of the Clock Tower team?

* Fans have been clamouring for a playable version of Tiamat ever since she appeared in Babylonia. The CCC rerun gives us Kingprotea, whose later ascensions give her characteristics quite similar to Tiamat, due to having the essence of Earth Mother Goddesses. It's not exactly Tiamat, but it's close enough, we guess.

** ''Nerve Damage'' has characters who can control a Berserker's Madness Enhancement, making them lucid while retaining their immense strength. ''Grand Order'' has many Berserkers whose madness does not prevent them from rational thought and speech.

* In the Prisma Illya event, Illya mentioned that the fake Tamamo Cat's [[Creator/ChiwaSaito voice]] is very much like Kuro's. Come the rerun and Kuro is shown wearing Tamamo Cat's apron and collar.

Added DiffLines:

* Fan artists for the longest time have been drawing artwork of a "what if" of Jeanne Alter, Cu Alter, and EMIYA Alter. They're now playable characters in this game.
* In addition to the above, a fan-made game featuring Altria and the other Arthurian myth characters featuring Merlin as a [[{{Bishonen}} Biseinen]] with [[LongHairedPrettyBoy long]], [[MysticalWhiteHair white hair]], [[OccultBlueEyes blue eyes]] and a glowing tattoo. Lo and behold, aside from the tattoo, that's ''exactly'' how Merlin's official appearance is in the Nasuverse.
* Similarly, there has been quite a few fan-arts of a "WhatIf" of Julius Caesar as a Saber. On [[ImageBoards Danbooru]], most of them are [[GenderFlip Saberclones]]. And then the official design is revealed and Caesar is definitely ''not'' a Saberclone. On the flipside, some thought he'd be a {{Bishonen}}. Turns out he's a fat dude in this game, but then Cleopatra reveals that the Caesar she knew in life was a {{Bishonen}}.
* Assassin [[spoiler: Kiritsugu]] was propagated as a possible Servant for several years in fanfiction and fanart, and it's been legitimized in Fate/Accel Zero Order.
* Before Tesla's debut in the game, we had a heroic spirit famous for something related to electricity [[Series/KamenRiderGhost in another unrelated series]]. The spirit's name? Edison. Both Takeru (in Edison form) and Tesla fought with electrical projectiles, and even both Edison Parka and Tesla was [[spoiler: used by the arc's villain in their debut]].
* Edison's debut has him as a Caster. ''Series/KamenRiderWizard'' has the secondary Rider being lion-themed while still being a wizard; in other words, still a Caster.
* In ''Fate/kaled liner Prisma Illya 3rei'' manga Chapter 35, Shirou refers to the Black Keys he got from Kirei as Craft Essences (basically toys). He then complains about how they're worthless junk and how he paid lots of cash for them, reflecting many players' reactions to rolling them.
* The pink haired girl in the opening cinematic was thought to be Nightingale, the main ally of the America chapter. Later, Nightingale is revealed to be a different Servant and the pink haired girl is revealed to be Medb, the ''main villain'' of the America chapter.
* The Onigashima event features a Rider-class Kintoki as an event Servant and lots of players are quick to point out that the belt he wears looks just like a Rider Belt. Well, this [[Series/KamenRiderDenO isn't his first time]] going to a place called Onigashima. [[labelnote:Explanation]]Kintaros' name was taken from Kintaro, and the legend of Kintaro itself was based on Sakata Kintoki's exploits. For bonus points, Kintoki's VA also voiced... Urataros.[[/labelnote]]
* The game director's name is Yosuke Shiokawa. It means "river of salt". Now we know why F/GO players are salty. Then it turns out the marketing guy's name means "stone cellar" and the company chairman's name means "money valley". Well played, DW.
* St. Martha's Interludes and events that she appeared in keep bringing up that she actually likes to beat enemies with her fists. Come "Chaldea Summer", the Ruler St. Martha mainly uses GoodOldFisticuffs.
* After the inclusion of EMIYA and Dress of Heaven in Fate/Accel Zero Order, fans joked that someday they could reunite the whole Emiya family in the game. And now, voila, there's Illya and Chloe ready to join their parents (and brother). And the bonus level has them all together (plus Heracles).
* There was a running gag among Fate fans that the "Riding" skill involves "riding a man" (this caused Irisviel, of all people, to snicker back then in ''Fate/Zero''). In her Interlude, Medb mentions this as her qualification for the Rider class.
* In LightNovel/FateApocrypha, after summoning Mordred, Kairi asks to confirm that she's a Saber-class servant, to which Mordred sarcastically asks if she looks like an Assassin. Kairi then jokingly comments that an armored Assassin with a sword wouldn't be so bad. Fast-forward and we now have the Grand Assassin, King Hassan, who wears a full set of heavy armor and wields a sword.
* [[https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/63df8w/someone_doesnt_approve_of_the_new_event_type/ Chapter 24]] of the Fate/Grand Order gag manga has Altera having a nightmare thanks to the female protagonist sitting on her thinking that it gives the person being sat upon bad dreams. She jumps into a world where F/GO has a PVP mode and all the best rewards are only given to the top players aka the ranking system and event ranking systems, which you recognise is one of the most hated mechanics in mobages or pretty much games in general. Cut forward to April 2017, the GUDA GUDA Meiji Revival is pretty much a player base civil war with different rewards on either side. Thankfully, [[SubvertedTrope it's a ladder system]] like Honnoji so everyone gets the rewards on both sides, the only difference is which of the higher rewards of the winning side will be obtained.
* In Fate/GUDAGUDA Order Drama CD, Nobu asks DW for a 5* "Demon Lord" version of her with Medusa saying that it wouldn't happen. Jump forward to Babylonia, in an ironic twist, we were introduced to Medusa Gorgon, which is pretty much Medusa's "Demon Lord" form.
* When battling Ereshkigal, one may wonder why the Babylonian goddess of the dead is placed under the Lancer designation. Then you realize that the fans' observations about how "being Lancer is suffering", "E-Rank Luck", and the [[RunningGag "Lancer died! You aren't human!"]] phrase in ''Carnival Phantasm'' have '''not''' gone unnoticed by DW.
* Speaking of Lancer, it's ironic that in Fate/Stay Night and Carnival Phantasm, [[TheyKilledKennyAgain Cu Chulainn always dies]], but in Fate/Grand Order, he's nearly unkillable if you play him correctly. (And we are talking about ''any'' of his forms/alternate classes.)
* Another ''Carnival Phantasm''-related matter: Saber Alter Maid is part of the upcoming 2017 Summer event. "I am a cute gothic lolita maid waitress, sir!" Indeed.
* In Farewell to 2016 - GUDAGUDA Order, Nero complains that she didn't get a swimsuit version for Summer 2016. Summer 2017 has her in the line-up.
* EMIYA's line about him not wanting to be paired with gold Archers and blue Lancers now gains another layer of hilarity because of Parvati's release. It's either he can't get along with Gil (gold Archer) and Cu (blue Lancer) or that he doesn't like being reminded of his trouble with women, namely Ishtar (Rin, also a gold Archer) AND Parvati (Sakura, also a blue Lancer).
* During the first Christmas event, Santa Alter gives d'Eon a maid outfit. During the Agartha singularity, it's exactly the kind of outfit they end up wearing.
* [[EnsembleDarkhorse Ereshkigal]] has always been a teased and awaited Servant ever since Babylonia release. To the extent that Cirnopedia and various resource calculators would jokingly put her in the line-up as if she was a normal Servant under the Lancer class due to her boss fight in the Babylon singularity. One year later, Ereshkigal would be the featured SSR in Christmas 2017, complete with the correct Class.
* As noted below in the "M" folder, a lot of fans have come to the general consensus that the game's creator is none other than one Kotomine Kirei due to how much the paid gacha favors Black Keys (which are pretty much his signature weapon) and [=CEs=] with him on it. Guess who shows up as a part of the Clock Tower team?
* During the first Christmas Event, Astolfo, who was making an EarlyBirdCameo, became the ButtMonkey just because he didn't show up and fight during the Orleans singularity, and wasn't even summonable in the event, with his appearance being little more than a footnote. Semiramis, a fellow ''Apocrypha'' servant, didn't show up during Babylonia, yet not only does she debut as a summonable servant in the gacha of the 2018 Valentine's event (where she makes her debut proper), but she's the ''focus'' of the event.
* This is not the [[Series/DaVincisDemons first time]] Creator/LeonardoDaVinci and UsefulNotes/VladTheImpaler being in the same series.
* When Anastasia first appeared, some players half jokingly believe that instead of her being a Romanov, she was actually a gender-flipped Ivan the Terrible using his wife's name. Not only does Ivan actually appear in the Anastasia chapter, but Anastasia used the fact that she has the same name as his wife to manipulate him.
* When the Nasuverse Knights of the Round Table are crossed over with Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail, Fou is often cast as the KillerRabbit of Caerbannog. During the climax of Salomon, it turns out these fan artists were closer to the truth than they themselves realized.
* During the release of Semiramis, someone made [[https://twitter.com/mizink00/status/958404614407127040 a fanart]] of making fun on how Atalante was at the time the only Red Faction servant who has Quick NP and bullied Achilles into getting a Quick NP just so she wouldn't be lonely, much to Achilles' distress. And when Achilles gets into FGO... he's a Quick-based Rider, so maybe he really took Atalante's advice at heart.
* Marie Antoinette's "Whassup! My homies!" dialogue from the NA localization has now become this, because in another mobile game[[labelnote:Note]]23/7, for those who are curious[[/labelnote]], Marie Antoinette is depicted as [[https://imgur.com/a/m9pcH having gone]] TotallyRadical.
* Raikou, voiced by Creator/HarukaTomatsu, is a famed oni slayer [[spoiler:who had oni blood herself]]. Two years later, Tomatsu would voice [[Anime/DarlingInTheFranxx Zero Two]], a HunterOfHerOwnKind who has the appearance of and is referred to as an oni.
** It's also not the first time Minamoto no Raikou is depicted as female; ''New Manga/GetterRobo'' also has a female Raikou.
* The introduction of Katsushika Hokusai, actually a ''pair'' of characters featuring Hokusai in an octopus form and his daughter Ou'i wielding a giant paintbrush, was already this trope for ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}'', which has a brush weapon called the Hokusai in the Japanese version (Octobrush in other versions). Then ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon 2}}'' later got the ''Octo Expansion'' DLC which allows you to play as an Octoling. And then go into multiplayer as an Octoling wielding the Hokusai, with purple tenta-hair and octopus form if you're lucky.
* The day after Napoleon, a French Heroic Spirit, was released in Japan, France managed to win the 2018 FIFA World Cup. For added irony, Napoleon's reign in RealLife began to crumble after [[WinterWarfare he failed]] in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_invasion_of_Russia his invasion of Russia]], and France managed to win a World Cup taking place in Russia.
* The latest Summer Mystic Code features a tanned main character and arts-related boosts. Why is this ironic? Vlad III (Berserker) is one of the Servants benefited most by this Mystic Code, and he's summoned as a vampire.
* In ''Capsule Servant'', Jeanne attempts to hijack the narrative of ''F/SN'' and proclaims the "Jeanne boom" to have begun, primarily as a response to Astolfo eclipsing her in popularity for ''Apocrypha''. Cut to ''Grand Order'' where Jeanne has assuredly passed him in popularity as one of the game's poster girls with four different variants. The Jeanne boom has indeed begun. In addition, Rin briefly mistakes Jeanne for Napoleon which later turned out to be ''incredibly'' off-the-mark as far as appearances go.
* Mysterious Heroine XX becomes this when you realize that one, Saber had a hard time defeating Berserker in the Fate route; two, her stronger variants are often gag versions for seasonal events; and finally, XX's Foreigner Class counters Berserkers. Meaning, a joke variant of Saber has an easier time defeating Berserker than her canon version. Yes, even with the buffs Saber got.
* The idea that you can have a team of Servants instead of just one? ''Fanfic/NerveDamage'' had this idea in ''2012''. Not to mention, many of the Servants in there are surprisingly spot-on when they debuted years later in here.
* If you have Quetzalcoatl, Gorgon comments that she's so cheerful for a servant that qualifies as the Avenger class. This becomes pretty funny when the 2018 Christmas event rolls around, where a Ruler-class version of Quetz is the welfare servant.
* In the Prisma Illya event, Illya mentioned that the fake Tamamo Cat's [[Creator/ChiwaSaito voice]] is very much like Kuro's. Come the rerun and Kuro is shown wearing Tamamo Cat's apron and collar.
