DOMMY MOMMY?! | Fate/strange Fake Episode 7 *REACTION*

You’re more right than you know when you compared the Goddess to Gilgamesh 😄

We got mechs, Gods, demi-Gods, vampires, clay, plague, child soldiers, body hoppers, and an Arthur chuuni what a grail war 😭😭

I see some people have forgotten that Philia ordered Ayaka to join the war in Snowfield, and that Episode 2 already showed her arrival in the city. We still need one more Master appearance, but this is basically the entire main cast so far, so here’s another recap as a refresher:

MAIN CAST (MASTER – SERVANT) RECAP

1. Tine – Gilgamesh (Fake Archer). Gilgamesh is aware of Ayaka’s alliance.

2. Silver Wolf Chimera – Enkidu (Fake Lancer). Allied with Ayaka’s group. Currently staying in the forest under Enkidu’s protection.

3. Jester – Assassin (Fake Assassin). Now part of Ayaka’s alliance. Linked to Ayaka as a mana source. Jester is currently inside Tsubaki’s “world.”

4. Flat – Jack the Ripper (Fake Berserker). Knows Tsubaki is in the hospital. Aware of the “fog” surrounding the city.

10. Bazdilot – Heracles/Alcides (True Archer/Avenger). Currently trapped inside François’ Noble Phantasm.

11. Haruri – ??? (True Berserker). Follows Philia. Also trapped inside François’ Noble Phantasm.

12. Sigma – Watcher (slot True Lancer). Betrayed the US government. Now allied with Ayaka’s group. His Servant is Watcher (a special class, not actually Lancer).

13. ??? – Hippolyta (True Rider). Last seen in Episode 4.

OUTSIDE FACTION / NON-MASTER IMPORTANT CHARACTERS

• Philia. A goddess using an Einzbern homunculus as a vessel. Aware of the grail mud Bazdilot used to corrupt Heracles.

• Hansa + the Quarter Sisters. Last seen searching for Jester. Hansa also wanted all participants to gather at the church for a briefing (Episode 3).

NOTE: The latter half of Episode 3 through Episode 7 all happened within a single day.

Lost in Adaptation(From novel to anime):
True Berserker actually speaks in the novelization, saying "Protect" during the binding of Master/Servant. Filia also comments about helping to tie their meridians together.
The novelizatoin points out that Berserker is afraid of Filia.
Filia comments about how everyone is living "recklessly these days" while going past all the people who look drunk/drugged.
There's actually a lot of internal thoughts, dialogues, and incidental stuff that happens with Filia that was skipped.
One major thing is that Filia has "restrained" Berserker "almost like a puppy", and Haruri didn't consider Berserker her actual servant at that point.
Also Filia went shopping, hence why Haruri is carrying shopping bags.

Jason of the Argo actually has lines in the Novel, one of which is him promising to make a place where Alcides wouldn't be feared.
There's a small moment of Enkidu and his Master, with his Master having had a dream moment drawn from Enkidu's memories and Enkidu comforting him.

Filia's discussion about the vessel is a little more complex, she mentions how if she'd forced herself onto a human and not an emptier vessel it would've caused a mixing changing her memories and personality.
When Alcides uses the bird attack there's a cut away to Hippolyta, she can sense them being used since they were her father's birds. There's a very brief discussion between her and her master.
Haruri notices that Berserker has gotten larger since the summoning.
There's mention of how if things get too out of hand Faldeus' and the higher ups have plans in place to wipe out the entire city.

Mages working for Alcides master corner Haruri, instead of Bazdilot. She uses bees to fight them off. Then he shows up and shoots her.
Prelati's Grand Illusion has a much longer incantation.
Prelati mentions the "Oriental Avici hell" and how it's a fate of falling for thousands of years.

There's still more but that's enough for now I suppose.

Philia is an Einzbern homunculus. They're all immediately identifiable by their white hair, red eyes, and inhuman beauty, and are designed to be powerful mages. Irisviel in Fate Zero and Illya's bodyguards Sella and Leysritt (wiped out by Gil in UBW) were also Einzbern homunculi. Illya herself is half, since Irisviel was her mother and Kiritsugu Emiya was her father, as shown in Fate Zero.

The Einzberns are a notoriously powerful clan in the magecraft world, and one of the founders of the original Fuyuki Holy Grail system, which explains Haruri's initial reaction, as well as why Faldeus made sure to have her tracked as soon as he realized she was in town a few episodes back.
