YMMV / Capsule Servant

• Hilarious in Hindsight:
  • A popular collecting game featuring Servants being pulled out of a gacha-esque summoning system? Doesn't sound so outlandish now, does it?
    • Heck, Jeanne's desperate plea to become a Breakout Character is this, considering that her corrupted counterpart, Jeanne d'Arc Alter (and her counterpart Jeanne d'Arc Alter Santa Lily), was this in lieu of the real Jeanne for Grand Order.
  • In this universe, powerless Bazett (as well as other normal humans) is able to become a Heroic Spirit just by signing up with the Heroic Spirit Association. Later on in Grand Order, canon characters becoming Heroic Spirits was only allowed if there was some reason attached to it, whether it be alternate universe exploits, ^note both Shirou and Kiritsugu EMIYA posession,^note  Taiga (Jaguar Warrior), Waver (Zhuge Liang), Sakura (Parvati, Kama), Jinako (Ganesha), stay night and EXTRA Rin (Ereshkigal, Ishtar), Reines (Sima Yi), stay night Illya (Sitonai), Shirou (Senji Muramasa), Caren (Amour), Kotomine (Rasputin) or special circumstance.^note Prisma Illya, Miyu, Gray and Mash due to being Raised as a Host, Chloe due to being a clone stabilized with a Class Card, Sieg due to having Siegfried's heart and being a terminal for Fafnir, Hinako because she really was Yu Mei-ren under an alias, Erice due to being the daughter of a Divine Spirit that made a wish on a Holy Grail and possessing the traits of at least 3 Japanese deities, Iori because he's already a historical figure This includes Bazett herself, as she's summoned with the Saint Graph of Manannán mac Lir.
    • This universe managed to find a way to temporarily make regular people into Servants, which integrated into normal life fairly well. In Grand Order's Servant Universe, the new normal was caused by people finding a way to do this permanently.
  • While Shirou is a Master here, fellow tower defense game The Battle Cats featured a cat version and a chibified version of him as playable units in its Fate/stay night crossover.
