Final DLC
for Samurai Remnant is Bailong and the Crimson Demon, featuring Rider Zhao Yun.
Perhaps the playable version will be the grown-up version of her, the one with an actual NP to her name and can pull out that giant sword out from the sheath to fight with? Yet acts exactly the same as when she was smaller.
In a different timeline/setting?

"If there's problems, there's simple solutions."Bit more info about the DLC story.
The plot starts with a courtesan who gets thrown out of the brothels for having a child. Stricken by grief of losing her child, she ends up getting possessed by a bird demon (Ubume?) spawned by a ritual who then goes around and feeding on the souls of lost children.
Another being that spawned from the ritual was an incomplete summon of Kishimojin. As she is a Divine Spirit with no host body, she is left as a spirit that gets devoured by the bird demon. Of course given that Kishimojin is a god, it ends with the two spirits merging into one another. Kishimojin manifests as a Berserker-class Servant who wants to nurture children and keep them save by any means necessary. Even if it means assimilating them into her body.
The way Zhao Yun ties into this is that when he got summoned, he was chain summoned alongside Adou AKA Liu Shan, Liu Bei's son. As Adou is summoned as an actual baby, he draws the attention of Kishimojin who assimilates the child into her. This is why Zhao Yun is after her, to save the young prince.
Only sometimes postsSo here's what I gathered. When Zhao Yun is summoned as a Servant, a lil baby Liu Shan will also spawn in the map somewhere, and Yun's immediate and only priority is to find and protect him ASAP, to the point where his NP is basically "find the baby EVEN HARDER"
Bewitching Eyes>tamamosis
Sounds like the process of Tamamos diffusing across a membrane from an area of high Tamamo concentration to an area of low Tamamo concentration
Bewitching EyesSorry to say I have no answer to Ayumi's question, as I haven't played the game and don't plan to. HOWEVER!
Just 7 more days until the global release of Tsukihime: A Piece of Blue Glass Moon! Unfortunately, it seems like they're not bothering to ship them ahead of time even if they're preordered, so mine won't get to me until July 1st. :( Still, looking forward to a ton of people experiencing Tsukihime for the first time!
GM: AGOG S4 & F/WC RP; Co-GM: TABA, SOTR, UUA RP; Sub-GM: TTS RP. I have brought peace, freedom, justice, and security to my new Empire.it's genuinely a bit baffling. tamamo had a lot of prescribed importance to The Lore™ of the type-moon universe, between being twice's servant in Extra and her relation to Amaterasu in CCC. especially since, for the latter, the game is very unsubtle about nudging and winking at the player that tamamo is eventually going to face turning into the nine-tailed fox again and her evil side emerging, and amaterasu being ready to watch ever smugly as it happens.
and then... nothing. extella focused entirely on brand new lore and shilled nero to an absurd degree, extella link focused on charlie, and Last Encore.. shilled Nero once again and introduced deadface Hakuno (AND entirely excluded Tamamo to the point that her only appearance is a sticker on a trash can and a drama cd). and when it seemed like it was going to finally be touched on, tunguska pulled the rug from under everyone's feet. she hasn't even gotten a single costume which is absurd for one of the main characters of the franchise who's been in FGO since near the beginning. i guess Tama Cat exists, who did get a costume, but she's also a joke character who's gotten... one, maybe two serious roles period? and then Aria is... well, she's Aria.
all the while she's relegated to secondary-character status. and Nasu's drafts from Extella Zero seem to imply that her role in extellaverse is "Nero is the "true" servant/wife, and Tamamo is playing cutesy and trying to steal Hakuno away as the silly secondary character". which is an extreme disservice to her!! i'm baffled that Nasu is the one who conceptualized it in Extella Zero, and followed through with it in Extella proper. and then Nero seemingly stole the whole "she's inevitably going to become a Beast that devours hakuno and the world" arc when it comes to the Beast VI/Whore of Babylone and FGO Arcade, which feels like a slap in the face.
like. i'm not a nero hater, i rather like nero actually. i like draco and the whole whore of babylon thread throughout the series. but, like, what on earth is going on behind the scenes? i genuinely cannot fathom why tamamo is getting so little content and shafted ever since CCC. my absolute best guess is that Nasu pulled a Nasu- he had something written and planned out for Tamamo and Amaterasu across The Lore™ with cosmic importance, and then scrapped it because he didn't think he could do his idea justice and then used those concepts in other places. if it's just that type-moon believes it's done with tamamo as a character and that she doesn't have anything left to bring to the series that's fine but then why do they keep touching on Tamamo/Tamamo Nine/Daji/Amaterasu and then pulling away at the last second?
at a certain point it just feels spiteful. i know it's not, but its so ridiculous that i think someone is playing a cruel joke.
woah CCC tamamo ending spoilers

"There's not a girl alive who wouldn't be happy being called cute." ~Tamamo-no-Maei actually rather like draco's first ascension. the crowned queen being a depressed and rather morbid child with a blood-red dress and clutching onto the grail as her life is truly and utterly destroyed from the beginning is a dark aesthetic that i like. especially since the dress is floor-length and not revealing.
....the less said about the second ascension, the better. i genuinely do not know what they were thinking and it's really gross. i have no idea what wada arco was thinking, it feels like she was forced to do the design with how much the body and head do not go together.
the third ascension is awesome though
"There's not a girl alive who wouldn't be happy being called cute." ~Tamamo-no-MaeWe do have Wada's design notes on Draco's second ascension per the arcade mats
Extra timeline is Nero's world, the rest of them just live there.
Jokes aside, Nasu really been pushing Nero as the face of the series and Hakuno's "true" Servant. I dunno if he finds her more interesting, or if she's the most marketable, both might be true. Tamamo is left being a side character.
I have no problem with Draco. There's no historical character more associated with the concept of "Beast" than Nero, so it makes sense that she'd become one.
Sounds like the process of Tamamos diffusing across a membrane from an area of high Tamamo concentration to an area of low Tamamo concentration
Funny how that's something that actually happens.
Cuz one is a recolor of the franchise mascot and the other isn't.
Kara no Kyoukai(Garden of Sinners) Question.
I got a question regarding Shiki Ryougi's trope section. Its specifically the "Good Is Old-Fashioned" trope. In it one part says "and is utterly disgusted by drugs and casual sex." My question is where in the novels(or movies) does Shiki say that or refer to those preferences at?

Bumping my question.
