FATE GRAND ORDER

GUDAGUDA SUPER GORYOKAKU #1

━

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : I never expected things to come to this.

??? : That's what you always say, Fool of Owari!

??? : You may have walked a long and strange road to become the mighty demon King, but here in this place, at this very moment, our fates are evenly matched.

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : Indeed, thus far... No... No... This must be the power of the Holy Grail...

??? : But of course, with the omnipotentence granted by my wish on the Holy Grail, there's nothing that can stand in my way anymore.

??? : ...Not even you...

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : Hmph... Then so be it.

NAGAO KAGETORA : W-What!? An ambush! But we only just rayshfited!

NAGAO KAGETORA : I'm on my way!!

HIJIKATA TOSHIZO : Ughhhhhhhhh!!

??? : Hold, men!

NAGAO KAGETORA : Guh...!?

HIJIKATA TOSHIZO : Gah...!?

??? : Are you THE Kagetora, Dragon of Echigo...? What ridiculous nonsense. To think you would spit on the Northern God of War with such a feeble display of power. Don’t make me laugh.

??? : And you... Oh? Hmm… This spirit… Is this the manifestation of some kind of demon?

??? : One after another, how cunning…

??? : But it’s no use. No matter what kind of warrior you may be...

??? : You cannot surpass me!!

NAGAO KAGETORA : Nobunaga, there's no mistake, they deceived us!

NAGAO KAGETORA : We've been lured into a death trap...

NAGAO KAGETORA : Th-This place… It’s…

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : ...Huh...?

OKITA SOUJI : No...!

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : Master, you must go!

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : It’s as they said. In this place. At this very moment… We have no chance of winning!

MASTER : I'll be back! I’ll save you!

TOSHIZO HIJITAKA : Okita! Saito! I'm going on ahead!!

SAITO HAJIME : Yes, Vice-Captain! I'll cover the retreat! Miss Nagao, I’m counting on you to take care of Master!

NAGAO KAGETORA : It's regrettable... but it seems we have no other choice…

NAGAO KAGETORA : Come Houshou Tsukige! We must break through!

NAGAO KAGETORA : Master! Don't let go of my hand!

??? : Oh, and here I thought you’d hesitate to leave your men on the battlefield. You’re surprisingly ruthless.

??? : You truly seem to understand what it means to be a general in spite of your appearance.

??? : And what of you, Fool? Have you no intention to retreat with them?

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : Heh. You’re right. Normally I wouldn’t be caught dead serving as a Shingari on the rear guard. Such a role is far more suited to an insignificant nobody like him.

HIJIKATA TOSHIZO : Oh, shut up... Who exactly is the small fry here?

??? : Hm. Then why remain here in such a hopeless place?

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : ...Because that is my duty.

??? : Because you are who you are, no...?

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : There's nothing more to it. I am the one who bears the true name of Nobunaga. Which means in this place, at this very moment, there is no retreat.

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : For here is where it all began. The path to my Demon Kingship!

DEMON KING NOBUNAGA : Therefore this… is Okehazama!

??? : Hahaha! Yes! That is exactly right!

??? : And you are the only mistake I ever made, nay, my archnemesis!

??? : Now, let us settle the karmic debt of our past lives!!

━

MASH : We lost connection to their heroic signals...!?

DA VINCI : Yes, it seems once they rayshifted into that Singularity, the connection dropped. We’ve lost our ability to observe them.

RANMARU X : The Singularity in question… Is Okehazama in Japan, is it not?

SION : We were able to track it up until the rayshift… What changed to make it so we couldn't observe it anymore...

SION : Could someone be interfering with the signal, perhaps?

MORI NAGAYOSHI : Hey hey, if it's Okehazama we’re talkin’ about. You can leave it to me. That’s my yard. But y’know, for someone constantly running his big mouth, that Demon King isn't reliable at all, is he?

ODA NOBUKATSU : Huh? Take that back! How can my sister possibly be unreliable?!

ODA NOBUKATSU : The way I see it, if we’re not even getting a reaction from my sister, then something terrible must have happened!

ODA NOBUKATSU : You need to hurry and send out a search, or, or reinforcements!!

DA VINCI : Easier said than done…

DA VINCI : Even the Servants we already sent were pushing the limits of our resources!

YAMANAMI KEISUKE : Demon King Nobunaga, Kenshin, Okita, and Saito… We prepared the very best team we could based on Aptitude, but...

MORI NAGAYOSHI : So you had to send Bishamonten alongside the Demon King? And they still lost? Now that really is something... Just who could do such a thing?

RANMARU X : We don’t know if they’ve been defeated for sure. We must start a search for Master Fujimaru!

DA VINCI : Ranmaru’s right.

DA VINCI : Fujimaru’s not the type of person to be defeated so easily…

DA VINCI : First we need to start investigating the Singularity so we can re-establish observation of their coordinates.

SION : Whether we can observe them or not, there’s still the issue of our dwindling resources.

SION : We won’t be able to provide backup immediately, but, Mr. Goredolf, please select the search team.

GOREDOLF : Y-Yes… You can leave it to me.

GOREDOLF : But I mean… Aren’t things supposed to be more… relaxed… than this with you guys involved?

GOREDOLF : How is it they say it again? Gudagu?

MASH : Director, this is not the time to be lazing around! The lives of Master and the others are at stake.

GOREDOLF : R-right... You’re right! Okay then it’s time to get tough!

━

NAGAO KAGETORA : ...I never thought it would come to this.

OKITA SOUJI : Even together, we’re completely helpless…

NAGAO KAGETORA : An ambush right after the Rayshift... And the enemy in perfect formation…

NAGAO KAGETORA : We were completely baited… What on earth happened…?

SAITO HAJIME : ...It’s best we shift gears and keep moving forward.

SAITO HAJIME : But this IS crazy… No matter how you look at it…

SAITO HAJIME : We need to find a way to break through and retreat.

OKITA SOUJI : Agreed...

OKITA SOUJI : But even if we escape, where exactly do we go?

NAGAO KAGETORA : We go East... If we can cross the mountain, we'll reach Shinano.

NAGAO KAGETORA : At the very least it should throw the enemy off our trail. We can use the darkness as a cover to make it through.

SAITO HAJIME : Alright, let's do it.

??? : I won’t let you escape that easily.

OKITA SOUJI : ...What!?

I don't even know what's he's done so far, care to fill me in captain?

Until powerful translations roll out, I can’t give any nitty gritty details because I, too, lack them, but just from my very meager knowledge of Japanese and contextual cues:

At the start of the event, who we thought was Nobunaga was actually Nobuyuki disguised as her and using her name.

Under the identity of his older sister, he gets in an argument with Hijitaka Toshizo, Vice-Commander of the Shinsengumi.

The Real Nobbu appears and gets Very Angry at Nobuyuki for using her name and identity, especially to cause TROUBLE.

However, Nobunaga was not going to take this shit from Hijitaka, even by proxy, so she took issue with it, because she’s STUPID.

Okita Souji, Commander of the Shinsengumi, also STUPID, wasn’t going to take this defensiveness from Nobunaga (by double proxy) and so she also took issue.

Nobbu and Okita REALLY escalate it.

They turn to you, the protag

No matter your choice, you bathe this fire with oil and it escalates further

It’s war.

It’s a legit fucking war

‘cause you STUPID

The war ended

Nobbu won

but just when you thought it was over, Nobuyuki did Something and Stole Something

Nobunaga was like “hey what the fuck man”

Nobuyuki was like “sorry onee-san but fuck you”

He reveals his two ACCOMPLICES

It’s fucking Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla.

Nobuyuki had them IMPROVE on the design of the mass production Chibi-Nobbus to create the powerful Meka-Nobbu and NobbUFO, in addition to the new Nobbusengumi and Guntank Nobbu models.

Oda Nobuyuki, Edison, and Tesla create a powerful trio, and they have an army of Nobbus.

This triggers a second war, them versus Nobunaga, Okita, and Hijitaka.

Who also have some Nobbus of their own

Tomorrow, there’s a THIRD war scheduled.

Nobuyuki did all this. He directly caused two wars, one after the other.

By dressing up as his sister.

He’s not even playable

Fucking hell, Nobuyuki.

@kuhijikatathemerciless meets Shimazu Toyohisa

“Well, well. If it isn’t Hijitaka Toshizo of  Shinsengumi. Is that right?” Toyohisa grins at his fellow rival. “Are you here for a rematch?” This time, Toyohisa won’t hold back like last time but he became cautious because of the End’s ability. 

[shadoedraws]

just finished hakuouki and went to vent out my feels. naturally, this was the result.

[kumisoria]

So a lot of people are asking about what anime is the post I reblogged from and its:

Hakuouki!

The top grossing otome game that has been published in English on PSP/DS/3DS (and I can't remember what other platforms- PS3?) and a mobile app for Hakuoki is going to be released soon too~

So I'm bored and I have decided to make a quick post on this game.

Basically you play as Chizuru Yukimura��in the setting of Bakumatsu Period, where you encounter various different men from Shinsengumi and with a special original character.

Characters available (for your romance):  Hijitaka Toshizo, Saitou Hajime, Heisuke Toudou, Souji Okita (my bias ;D), Harada Sanosuke and Kazama Chikage! (my no.1 demon~)

This story has a mix of fantasy with history. And its actually a pretty lengthy visual novel with a lot of words. (But it is interesting if you're into Japanese history).

Anyway the otome game has been published into 3 seasons of anime, (unofficial) manga, musicals, OVAs and (two) movies. 

There's also Hakuoki SSL where the Shinsengumi and our demon man are in a school AU and there is absolutely no sadness or any deaths, just your typical school life romance. ;D

I love love this game! (I have played Hakouki: Memories of the Shinsengumi and am onto Hakuoki: Yuugiroku) (PS. Okita's route had me sobbing like a gross monster and Kazama should have a proper route.)

Hakouki Demon of the fleeting blossom para psp (tambien tiene un anime) termine la ruta de Hajime Saito *-*  ahora voy por los otros personajes!!!

Okay! The character introduction part of the video is complete! Thank you to everyone who offered to help with art/translations, but given the time constraints and the fact that Cybird doesn’t seem to translate very well anyway I guess this is gonna have to do orz...

If anyone has a better suitor or other description, please feel free to tell me! My brain is pretty much fried. I think tumblr has some image cap or something, so other suitors’ character cards to follow in a separate post.

All that’s left to do now is the story instruction and gameplay ;_;

[cerastes]

More Cool Stuff from the latest event:

Okita, a genius swordfighter but otherwise just a lieutenant, at a complete loss of what Nobunaga and Hijitaka, two renowned excellent tacticians IRL, are talking about when they discussed strategy and tactics.

Hijitaka knowing this and giving Okita, without exception, the same order every time: “Okita, go flank them” because Okita is an unstoppable cyclone of steel and death with a sword anyways.

Nobusengumis, the Chibi-Nobus aligned with the Shinsengumi, using the actual historical signature move of the Shinsengumi as their regular attack, the Hirazuki, a move historically invented by Hijitaka Toshizo (who also has it as two different attacks in the game), the implication being that Toshizo personally trained the Chibi-Nobus in swordfighting. Aside from being humorous, it also rings true to history, as Hijitaka was the one that invented the “Shinsengumi-Kenjutsu” that its members used and he personally drilled members in its usage.

Okita actually didn’t realize Hijitaka was Berserker-class until the very end of the event’s story. She assumed he was a Saber or an Archer. Nobunaga explains that Toshizo was indeed a Berserker, just not in the traditional sense, much like Chacha isn’t: It’s his immense resolution and willpower to believe something that isn’t true, even when shown it isn’t, that makes him “crazy sane”, hence his class. This references two things: The historical Toshizo, who was indeed inhumanly devoted to his code of principles, to the point he forced his best friend to commit seppuku when he tried to leave the Shinsengumi (which was forbidden), and would personally cull those who wouldn’t willingly commit seppuku when breaking one of the five tenets of the Shinsengumi, and the historical Nobunaga, who famously had such individuals as Shibata Katsuie and Akechi Mitsuhide under his service, people who were quite off their rocker in some regards when it came to their devotion to a cause, hence why she was able to instantly recognize Toshizo as a Berserker and the reason for it.
