I figured that's how it'd end up.
So when she remembers who she is, she strips back down.
Tomoe's Oni blood keeps her in check.
A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.Is her brother also the one who ordered the death of Tomoe's husband?
You should see Emiya's first sprite, now that was ugly.
Best thing the NA server did was launch most servants with their new sprites.
Thank god, those big heads look weird as hell.

Yup, Minamoto no Yorimoto.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.It's also a pretty good justification for being Avenger: I am literally possessed by the manifestation of a grudge. That's kind of how they work; would be pretty hard to imagine Yoshitsune's desire for vengeance entirely on its own is that strong.
Avatar SourceThat guy sounds like a really big bastard. I do wonder if he'll show up in this event (maybe as giant ghost) so we can kick his ass.
I mean, the other Avengers are pretty solo hatred wise.
Secret SignatureWhat's great is that Ushi having darker traits has been foreshadowed for years, so its great to see some pay off to that.
Jalter is powered by someone else's grudge too though, namely Giles.
Oh yea, he's an asshole. Basically pulled a You Have Outlived Your Usefulness on Yoshitsune after she faithfully served him for years
And of you know how much Big Brother Worship she had, then hurts more.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.I just find it lame that there's a vague curse spirit that has to possess everyone with legit grievances to some assholes.
Secret SignatureThing is, Jalter is another case of taking the entire desire for vengeance and manifesting it as its own entity; Dantes we're getting the vengeance side of an entire revenge story where that vengeance was obtained; Lobo is the same sort of "unrelenting seeking of vengeance". And Gorgon is a giant monster. The odd one out is Nobu, but Nobunaga's retribution was also extreme.
The odd part about summoning a self-powered Yoshitsune is that like... they never really had chance to act on it.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.I didn't say it was? Like, you need to really be defined by hatred and vengeance somehow to show up there.

Avatar SourceSorry, was meant for Alekos.
A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.Ushi hiding large amounts of hate deep inside her was made very explicit during Babylonia, i just wasn't the focus because of all the other shit going on. Glad she finally got a whole event to explore her character, she deserves it.
And of you know how much Big Brother Worship she had, then hurts more.
Damn, he sounds the worst.

For clarification, Yoritomo and Yoshitsune executed Yoshinaka after he attempted to kidnap the Emperor and commit treason against the Minamoto family to start a new government with himself at the head. He was already a jerk who textually abused his servants, so the treason was the last straw. Along with, you know, already being a perfectly legitimate reason to have him killed.
I swear, I will never understand the attempt to make Yoshinaka of all people into a hero figure.
It's been fun.I have no idea what's going on in this event, though I've been told that the mallet has thus far been used to give us a bunch of chibis and swap the age of Jalter and Jalter Lily, on top of bopping Ushi giving us this problem, but I have gotten far enough the mission side of the shop is no longer a signpost.◊ Chibi Ushi!
Avatar SourceWhat's the deal with that Mallet anyway?
I only know of it from Touhou, but on top of making things bigger or smaller, it apparently has the ability to create stuff out of nothing? It's been translated as the Miracle Mallet for a reason.
Hammer macguffin.
Avatar SourceThat sounds like hella doujin fodder.
That explains this fight with Jalter and Santa Lily's information mixed up. The latter is using thr former's sprite and vice versa.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.That sounds hilarious.
...
Oh, New event starts today.
I don't love it being a mission event, but the boss battles sound fun.
Thank god it's female Servants getting bonuses, I don't have that many good male ones.
Oh right, Prilly event
A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.In the tale of Isshun-boshi, the mallet was used to either bring great wealth to him or make him grow to a normal human size after he obtained it from an oni who dropped it. Otherwise it is sort of a mystical item of ambiguous powers outside of being associated with Daikokuten.
Continue the bloodline, Fujimaru!
Will be nice to get full TLs, but it fits with what the bond CE looks like.
