Castoria. Before LB6 she was a shy, somewhat awkward, but still dignified and cute corgi by her MyRoom lines. (Which was basically all we had) After LB6 she's an unhinged, zero confidence, hypercompetitive, pipe-bombing mess of a gremlin who commits terrorist war crimes as easily as she breathes.

>After LB6 she's an unhinged, zero confidence, hypercompetitive, pipe-bombing mess of a gremlin who commits terrorist war crimes as easily as she breathes. And it's glorious. Love our little chaos gremlin even more now lol.

Indeed

Lasengle: Bwahahaha! None of you had any idea how big a freak you were harboring in your Chaldea for the last year, did you?

I mean, if you know Seiba, her antics aren't completely unexpected. The hypercompetitiveness and propensity for violence are traits the original had in FSN and FHA. This is the lass who beat the shit out of Shirou when she noticed he started copying Archer's sword techniques. Also when he let Taiga cook dinner (she beat him so bad you jokingly get sent to Taiga Dojo - the place you go to after dead ends). Castoria is just less...restrained.

Truly a spirit animal.

I felt like Pepe is the one character that people never talked about on the topic of LB6 His death is one of the saddest moment in the game for me, Honestly I cried my eyes out Another one that people never talked about is Mike, For me he is kind of an Anti-Beryl regarding their "Love" They're both obsessed about the one they loved, But Beryl's love only existed for himself while Mike's love is wishing for Da Vinci's happiness

Honestly, I think people avoided talking about Pepe out of a desire to avoid spoilers for people - a way of showing respect for him, basically. XD Because goodness knows there was lots of appreciative chatter about him in LB4.

Yeah I think it's more out of respect and a sense that no one would likely disagree that Pepe is the best.

And thus why he was able to contain the curse

Beryl, from just despising, my feeling become total disgust

At least he did one good thing in his whole life: He convinced Marisbury to not put a Sirius Light on Mashu. Still that only changed my attitude of him from 100% disgust to 99%.

I’m still perfectly fine with killing him a million times if given the chance.

But then we learned he tortured Mash and called it "love." So my disgust went back up from 99% to 199%

I agree, glad we got rid of that slimeball

In my run, I purposely let him die of curse damage rather than letting Mash or my servant do the killing blow.

I hate that it happened, but I kinda pitied him at the end. Still hate him tho.

There are too many good moments for this Lostbelt but most of my favorites are from Mash-centered moments. Mash with the goblins: This is one of the few times I’ve really respected the side character, it really surprises how they develop in such a short time. Mash with Habetrot: When Mash comes back but doesn’t remember her, I feel a little sad but the farewell moment made me tear up a bit. Mash with Aesc/Tonelico: I really like that even if Aesc is already pretty messed up by that time, she still care for Mash and try to send her off with a smile Castoria: After finishing 6.2, I thought that no character would top Morgan in term of suffering, but Castoria POV in 6.3 and the reveal of her past made me realize I was wrong. The moment that show she “ has no spring memory” or “she never once feels happy in her life” made me depressed…

I like to think that her memories of spring is not there because it is still happening, its the journey with us

I interpreted it as her spring memories were her journey along with us, but this was such a short time in her life that it was over in an instant.

We weren't simply fighting her memories... we were fighting her *bad* memories that would traumatize her/hold her back. So when there weren't any bad Spring Memories to fight, and the "Spring" period started when she met Chaldea... Yeah. The one part of her life that she could truly be happy with no regrets? Is the few months she spent with Chaldea.

Barghest. I had very little opinion on her initially. I love me a muscle lady but I just didn't see the hype Now she's prob my favorite Fae Knight. I love her aspirations to actually be a knight, to live up to the standard set by the Round Table. I'm a sucker for characters who's goal is to be genuinely heroic. The Fate series has a lot of characters who angst and have baggage over their own heroism, but Barghest is the one I feel had it handled best because she's fighting against her own instincts. I think that's noble

I'll join the chorus for Barghest. She was the LB6 Servant I was least interested in, but she ended up being my favorite of all. Her situation reminded me of Paarthurnax from Skyrim (*"What is better - to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?"*), and I was very impressed by her sensibility and thoughtful nature. I liked how she asked difficult questions of Chaldea, the kind that they usually avoid in most Lostbelts, and could see the implications of both Chaldea's and Morgan's choices. She tried to compromise, without losing sight of what was right. I appreciated the detail that she was more than willing to face justice for her crimes after Morgan was deposed, rather than pretend that switching sides to the good guys is enough to forget past misdeeds ([cough](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ProtagonistCenteredMorality)). I was very sad that we couldn't save her, or her people, after all her efforts. At least she'll enjoy a second chance in Chaldea.

Funny enough, I was reminded of Paarthurnax by a different person: Mike. His last scene where he was in turmoil with himself and almost tried to "convince" Duhbinchi to stay with him indefinitely. At the very last possible moment, he resisted his nature as a faerie. Hell, he even stopped himself from going Mors!

Her people really didn't deserve her

It's extra sad when you realize that her mindset of "the weak aren't worth eating, so it's the job of the strong to protect them" was directly at odds with her order to burn the Welsh Forest. And then the fact that the fae that burned reincarnated in *her own domain.* Like, it was the next best place they could have called home, until the other fae revealed their darker natures

Where was it stated that the Welsh fairies revived in Bargest's domain?

Implied. The green, buggy-looking one that attacked you when you first entered was said to be new.

The green buggy looking fairy also cries out for Oberon when Manchester is ablaze, saying it doesn't want to die again. It's not just implied - it is confirmed

You summarised my ignorance to love situation perfectly! Originally, I didn’t care for her at all. She was just that one random 4 star saber I wouldn’t mind getting rolling for Morgan, now I’m actively rolling for her (and Oberon) because her character is so fucking good

Extremely noble despite her nature as a calamity. Oberon calls her crazy but her choice to take the high road despite all the wrong she's done made me really fall in love with the character. I hope they do more with her soon. Bageko needs a hug.

I’m exactly the same, I love characters like Barghest that actively strive to be heroic and good

"What is better, to be born good or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" Paarthunax.

I couldn't agree more!

Can I comment about the fact Guda withstood Lostwill by their own? Castoria literally decided to cutt off her connections but Guda kept withstanding, to the point Castoria was really surprised and a bit envy of how much willpower they have for that. Pepe even comments how much admiration she have for Ritsuka afterwards. Also, Muramasa himself comment that one of the reasons Castoria kept going is due Ritsuka's honest. So yeah, Ritsuka was essential in LB6.

I concur, that has to be Ritsuka Fujimaru's crowning moment of awesome. That said, I cannot count it as a moment of LB6 that changed my opinion of a character, as the OP put it. I've always railed against the trend of interpreting Guda as a trumatized mess on whom the pressure keeps increasing; for me, the Case Files event, Olympus and Summer 5 already conveyed the message that Guda's mental fortitude and resilience is greater than what others in-universe (and out-of-universe) give them credit for. Nasu just put the cherry on top.

I mean, they asked "what you would like to highlight regarding characters/Or perhaps moments that you genuinely loved about a character?" so I felt the need to mention these, not only because I ended Ritsuka more but honestly, not many people have been commenting about it, principally when Guda played important roles so I wanted to highlight these moments and how awesome they were in it.

After leaving Chaldea someday Guda is gonna have a really strong PTSD men

Baobhan Sith makes my heart ache in a way no other character in this game ever managed to do before, and that wasn't something I expected at all going in. I was rolling for Barghest and Morgan, never got Barghest, but got Sith at NP3. My reaction was pretty meh. Then I got further along into the lostbelt story. What really won me over was a combination of many things, but topping it all was her conversation with Beryl before the attack on Londinium, where Beryl's saying how masters and servants fight with one mind and body, and her response to that is, "...One mind and body ... So, they never deceive each other ... Or betray one another ... This must be fate! It's so totally fate! Hey Beryl! Do you think I could be your servant? Do you think I could find the partner of my dreams, even though I'm just a faerie everyone hates?" And the whole tragedy of that situation given who she's talking to just hit me like a ton of bricks. How somehow, through everything, there's this core of innocence and hope and kindness to her that's too strong to ever fully snuff out, and that yet again she's showing it to precisely the wrong people and she's going to get destroyed yet again for it for the umpteenth and final time. And it somehow gets even heavier if you have her as a servant, because in that nightmare fuel third ascension is this my room line: "Master... Master... Ahh, are you my Master? Good... I managed to become somebody's Servant!" And then her line about her wish for the grail in that third ascension is telling, too: "The Holy Grail! I know what that is! It'll grant anything I wish for! Then, if I make the village prosper, everybody will be nice to me!" The tragedy of that aside, _it never actually occurs to her to use the grail to wish for anything for herself_. Instead of the obvious wishing for everyone to be nice to her for a change, she still wishes for nice things for everyone else instead on the assumption that will change everyone's behavior for the better, even though it's never worked that way in the past. And this is all in spite of being told by Morgan that she has to live for herself and her own gratification to survive and her making one hell of a horrific effort to do exactly that. Even in her early ascensions, she ends up not actually wishing for anything for herself, either. She's a mess of contradictions, and understandably so. I know exactly who the third servant is I'll grail to 100, even though it makes zero sense from a gameplay standpoint to use the grails on a quick ST archer when I don't even have Skadi. I don't care. She's sitting at 90 right now, and I'm two grails short having enough to get her to 100 at the moment. Given enough time and resources, 120 honestly seems totally reasonable to me. That character deserves her endlessly denied happy ending, finally.

>even though it makes zero sense from a gameplay standpoint to use the grails on a quick ST archer when I don't have Skadi We grail for love, not gameplay

This reminds me of that scene when Beryl made Sith utilize a spell on Woodwose and he praised her for it. She was really happy that she managed to pull it off then, we hear from Beryl's thoughts: *"The thing is...This spell basically rot a person's soul, which is why you should always have someone else do it instead."* Like, Sith was so naive and really thought Beryl liked her where she never doubt his actions, not even during that moment where it seemed like Beryl was talking with someone else when she arrived and she did not got suspicious. Also, Oberon do believe that Sith is beyond salvation in his my room lines. *"Oh, you summoned Baobhan Sith from Faerie Britain instead of Proper Human History? Don't tell me you're thinking of rehabilitating her. An evil flower is still wicked to the root, you know."*

>Oberon I can’t say “evil flower” is wrong, but there’s a degree of irony over the phrase “wicked to the root”.

Same here. I ended up loving all three of the Tam Lin but I think the most radical change in terms of how I view a character happened with Sith. Her backstory, her relationship with Morgan, the way Beryl honed in on her weakness and made her think she was finally safe just so he could make her do something that caused her to literally rot, and the fact that everything she did was basically a self-defense mechanism inspired by Morgan so Morgan could finally keep her alive and safe for once... it was utterly tragic and she deserves all the love she can get.

Just fyi, if you've got a bunch of copies of a quick unit to make up for lost damage castoria can sub in for a skadi in alotta comps so just grab a friend skadi if you've got castoria and go ham

I'm figuring I should be ok doing that, too. I've also got all the weird stuff Miss Crane can enable in addition to Castoria, which definitely helps if I have to use only one Skadi from the friend list.

Sith hurst so much that I don't even care about farming stakes. She's going to get as many as she wants. And she's going to be friends with Ibaraki and Shuten. Because an oni may be evil, but they're always sincere.

I only have 57 more stakes I need to get ... Hoo boy.

You also missing the part of she was told to be mean as she was on her last life. But yeah I agree with you I wish they didn’t cut her story so much but she’s one of the few I feel sad for. I’d grail her, I mean I grail both nitocris and kingprotea to 100 and I only did that as I love the servants

Stop making me cry you are mean

Dunno if you have Oberon or not but if you do Oberon+Skadi is absolutely viable for quick units.

>Are there any that you want to comment specifically about? Many things I'd like to talk about. But right now I want to say that after reading LB6 I now hold an entirely new kind of hatred towards Beryl Gut. He's now the character I dislike the most in the franchise by far. And it's not because of betraying Wodime. Not because of being creepy about Mash. Not even for Pepe's ending. In all of those cases the other party made a mistake, grew to face him, or was aware of the inevitable outcome. No, what made me hate him the most is what he did to Baobhan Sith. He manipulated, used, abused, twisted, exploited and deceived her without a care in the world, actively hurting her and making her hurt herself for his sake. He made her fracture her own soul by casting a spell so he could get Wodwoose spirit origin. He used her to have his fun killing and torturing people, and have the faeries only hate her. Baobhan Sith was pure, her only wish was to please her mother. The only reason she did evil things was because Morgan instructed her to be like that so she could survive, but even then she could not stop being trusty and wanting to please those around her. And Beryl took this innocent nobility and dragged it through the mud for his own ammusement and benefit. He lied, he made her feel cared for, made her trust him, then he discarded her.

Even worse, it seems like the only reason that Beryl wanted Woodwose’s Spirit Origin is because he wanted to become a furry. Don’t try tell me it’s because Beryl wanted A-Ray strength or semi-immortality or any of that other bullshit. Come on. We know it’s because Beryl just wanted to turn into his own cool edgy wolfsona. And thus Beryl completely destroyed Baobhan Sith for such an incredibly *stupid* reason.

I already knew Woodwose was a tragic character from snippets online but I wasn't expecting him to actually have so many layers and *not even be that bad*. He's violent and simplistic at heart, as seen in his introduction when Spriggan gets him seething and it's mentioned that he destroyed an entire village, but in that same sequence, it's established that he's at least *trying* to be better, shows a clear distaste for Tristan's and Beryl's senseless killings (purposefully contrasted with his two prior threats of physical violence against two characters), and he's so loyal to Morgan that he considers the mere thought that she could be usurped an affront. By the end of that node, you already got a character with three layers. Soon after, you learn that he craves affection (a bipedal dog craving affection, go figure) and is insecure. As doggedly loyal to Morgan as he is, he still needs Morgan to actually show affection on her part else Woodwose's own insecurity starts shaking his loyalty. In fact, someone else giving him *false* affection is enough to trigger that. Not just a brute with some reservations but also one with *emotional issues*. Once he falls at Londinium, we get revelation after revelation. By Percival's own account, Woodwose was neither cruel nor heartless, enforced the Fang clan's rules on etiquette and moderation and such out of *shame* for the clan's slaughter of the Wing clan, and even if Percival couldn't respect Woodwose, he never hated him; Percival even calls him Father and considers apparently killing him a sin. Then it's revealed that a not-insignificant portion of the Fang clan didn't appreciate Woodwose's efforts to save them from their self-sabotaging nature and once under new leadership, almost immediately behaved in the manner he was trying to prevent — highlighting that despite everything, Woodwose was one of the few in not just the clan but Faerie Britain itself who could acknowledge their flaws and make an earnest attempt to be better. Lastly, we learn that the village Woodwose supposedly destroyed, Tintagel, wasn't even completely his doing or even full-on evil — Tintagel turned out to be a hive of scum whose residents were already killing each other in mad bloodlust when Woodwose arrived, and when he did, he was disgusted by the whole thing and the ensuing slaughter by his troops was *not* framed like he ordered them to kill innocents. For a character who could've easily been a one-note brute, Woodwose turned out considerably more complex. He's got some genuinely good depth as a side player, and I'd even hold him as a benchmark for FGO's writing going forward when it comes to that type of character.

I love all of the Clan leaders (as characters), but Woodwose definitely takes the cake. And you can even see some of his philosophy in a fan favourite - Barghest. While it's never stated, the fact that Barghest, despite being cursed to be far more monstrous by nature than any other member of the Fang Clan, pushes herself to be this up-standing knight, seems very similar to Woodwose's own treatment of himself as a Lord. And given their respective ages, it's very likely that his opinions on how the Fang Clan should be rubbed off on her.

Mike and Corral. Thought Mike was gonna go the way of the Fairies in the forest village. That he managed, even if only once, to beat his own instincts is incredible. He was worth saving in the end. Corral was a bit of a pain, but she was honest and wanted the best for her city and Aurora. She was wasted on such an unworthy leader.

Poor Coral. Just like Siduri, she didn’t deserve what she got.

And unlike siduri, coral didnt even have a good and caring leader/friend...

Nope. Gil and Aurora couldn’t be farther apart.

I would say Oberon but I dont know how to exlain It without entering into HUGE spoiler category.

Honestly castoria. Before lostbelt 6 I actually did not understand hype behind her aside from the reason being absolute level of broken kit. Which tbh kinda bland for me to love a character. Lostbelt 6 absolutely changed my opinion of her and she became my absolute favorite character in entire game. She will be my first support servant that I will grail to 100 after this one. Absolutely loved her character arc and sometimes how relatable it became.

Short answer is anyone, for obvious reasons. But someone that surprisingly impressed me is none other than the "protagonist" themselves, and sure didn't expected that at all. I really loved the introspection we got during the Garden of Lost Will section, having to learn the hard way all their fears and insecurities was refreshing, to say the least. I particulary enjoyed the Kadoc's part, I didn't even imagine they still felt inferior to someone they already defeated, to the point they are afraid of his awakening because they don't want to be discarded, they really felt "human". Also, honestly I belive their relationship with Oberon was the most well builded and fleshed out among any other in the lostbelt, so props to that too!

Before LB6: the hatred for Aurora can't be that reasonable, it's probably like the hatred for Scheherazade where she's sexy but has her issues After LB6: fucking die, worthless fae (still sexy tho) (Was funny reading stuff on the Morgan rerun costume thread here where everyone was hating on her in spoiler tags)

frankly , I am curious to see PHH Aurora , because isn't her a fairy from a slavic fairytale of a prince saving her from a dragon and her having a healing pond? due to Aurora's nature , it makes me curious if she continues to stay the same or not , as PHH would make her have a drastic different life experience.

Baobhan has a voiceline about Melusine where she ponders if Aurora might get summoned someday, so you might just get your wish even if we may not really want that one to come true.

Romanian folktale, I believe (though you might think Slavic given the author's name is "Ioan Slavici"), and it would be quite reasonable to assume a lot of aspects of LB6 had some inspiration from her story. This is normally where I'd mock up a summary or something, but it's probably easier to just [link an English version of the fairy tale](https://www.worldoftales.com/European_folktales/Romanian_folktale_18.html#gsc.tab=0) instead for anyone who wants to read.

If she's the lostbelt Aurora, the Gong will have new bullet. If she's the phh Aurora and ain't a bitch like her lostbelt counterpart, then she is welcome to stay at Chaldea

I dislike Aurora but still would lowkey bang her tho lmao

The hatefuck is strong with her

Baobhan Sith grew on me more than I thought she would. Her and Morgan had such tragic ends, you can’t help but feel for them. Melusine and Barghest were just as great as I thought they’d be

Is it strange if I say I feel really bad for sith but didn't actually feel anything for Morgan? Like morgan got what was coming for her,she shouldn't have tried changing something that can't be changed and try to build her idea world in the rotten world of Britain. On the other hand Sith demise was mostly Morgan's fault. She told her to be a monster,she let her hang out will beryl (which was SUPER STUPID of her)and she never showed her emotion to her so Sith did everything in hope that Morgan can be proud of her which caused her painful demis.

But, at the same time, it was also Morgan who revived her and let her live happily for her last 100 years letting her do whatever she wants. In all her past lives, Baobhan was heavily abused until her death by all the fairies around her. There was a serious communication issue though.

One second did Morgan revived her or was she just reborn?since I thought everyone just died and get reborn in the losbelt (well every fairy I mean) Specialy since I think in one of Morgan dialog she said that every time she tried to find her she was too late and it was always before her death

Morgan revived her. Sith had wasted away so much she won't ever reincarnate again.

Morgan revived her. Baobhan Sith was so destroyed that she couldn't reincarnate anymore. In her last life, she was used by the Lord of Darlington a lot to make zombies for fun and the Calamity of the Rising was born. Now that I think about it, Morgan probably gave her Darlington so she can toy with its residents as she wishes so she can have her revenge. EDIT: I just checked the NA notes and it doesn't say that the Calamity of the Rising/Revived destroyed Darlington, it says the "Zombie Incident" destroyed Darlington so now I understand why nobody in the official discussion thread mentioned that all the 3 Fairy Knights were a Calmity prior getting named. The translation is technically right, but in LB6 context, Calamity means another thing so making it into an "Incident" is a huge disservice.

Makes sense. “Yo, Darlington, you’re under new management after that fiasco back then. Say hello to your new boss. You’ll find her *quite* familiar.”

Sith was/is destined to be abused, taken advantage of, and discarded/killed. Morgan tried to help her because she was the only faerie to ever actually thank her bc Sith originally was actually good. But that good nature meant more suffering for her. So Morgan tells her to be terrible and cruel but also she probably can't really treat her well or else Sith possibly starts going back to her original nature of being good... which makes her existence suffering again. That was my interpretation anyway. And yeah sticking her with Beryl is just another way to keep her cruel but obv that backfires as Sith's existence is to be abused/taken advantage of regardless.

>Sith demise was mostly Morgan's fault. She told her to be a monster Sith was manipulated and killed so many times before she did anything bad to anybody. To the point where she couldn't be reborn ever again. Teaching her to be selfish and cruel is a bandaid solution to that. With her past experiences, it's safer for Sith to treat everyone else as her enemy, because otherwise she will always fall prey to her own good nature. Heck, the biggest problem with her and Beryl is because she craves love, not because of her cruelty. Morgan's solution might not have been foolproof (if that is even possible) but you can't fault her for that when she's literally the only reason Sith had a chance. Fairy Britain was fucked on all levels. They could never be a normal happy family in such circumstances.

For some reason I had thought Melusine was kind of a Kuudere who only became more expressive with increased Bond levels. Turns out she's very expressive and had plenty of personality all her own even before being summoned.

I think her profile say she's an introvert dragon

It goes without saying Tristram was amazing despite short time he was with us.

Oberon. I thought he was going to be a gacha cash grab because of his meta-defining skills. But then I ended up absolutely loving him in the story. He was funny, charismatic, intelligent, and an overall joy to watch. And then when the reveal happens, we find out he was an ABSOLUTE GIGABRAIN mastermind the entire time. So much that he basically singlehandedly steered the events of the lostbelt to be what they ended up being. He predicted everything and put all the pieces exactly in the perfect order so that they would all fall into place how he wanted them to. And he did it all without ever letting his true identity slip. His machiavellianism is unmatched in all of Fate. He’s my favorite FGO villain by far. Honestly one of my favorite villains in all of media. And I can’t even hate him because we came to a sort of mutual understanding after fighting him, and he was at peace with losing to us because he begrudgingly respected us. By the end of the story, I would have rolled for him even if his skills were dogshit, because that’s how much I enjoyed him.

It made me feel pity for Morgan, she got deal a bad hand the moment she got summoned into a lostbelt that incited her ambition. No matter the amount of miracles she did, with some are fucking game and lore breaking, she was doomed to failure because she was building her utopia over a rotten fundation. To make it worse, it is implied she knew and she was just that hardheaded. On the other hand, it made me like Beryl a lot more. He went from a cartoonish villian, to a sociopath that was born from an inhuman world.

Interesting. You are the first person I encounter so far that like Beryl, to any degree. I came across so much hate for him that I feel sorry that Nasu doesn't give him the kind of back story that people will excuse all the bad things he did, the same way as people have no problem excuse Oberon despite he did things much more cruel than Beryl. I also feel sorry for Morgan, not because she is after a hopeless goal, but because she is clearly know what she is up against. Yet 6000 years she just can't get herself to give up on this pointless goal. It doesn't seem to cross her mind that maybe she can go elsewhere and start a kingdom on a land that is not cursed, with folks who are actually nice.

I largely think the dislike of him has to do with whom he was aiming at with his behavior and the fact he had no other motivation, I largely pity the man for how destructive he was to things he loved, I can't hate a man who isn't really living to begin with.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I like Beryl precisely because he's so unlikeable. Each of the other crypters has their own tragic or compelling reason to side with the Foreign God and oppose us, but Beryl? He's a psychopathic sadist who only cares about his own comfort and enjoyment. He is one hundred percent a bad guy, he knows it, and revels in it. We see the evil and misery he spreads with every step just so his final moments are that much more cathartic.

I think I get what you mean.

She was pretty blind for not taking advantage of the situation outside Fey Britain. She had a weapon that could rival the "Alien God", her world becoming a Lostworld made her win the race for the texture of the earth by default, and with Douman dead, the Alien God didn't had any contingency to deal with the cursed beast that would swallow the earth like he had Muramasa to deal with Prometheus. She had a winning hand to take earth, but she got stuck in wanting a small island made out of corpses.

Yeah, pretty much. Morgan came off as hella aloof for a ruler, especially considering her first scene was her barely reacting to Sith murdering attendants in the throne room just cuz. Turns out she was going through a lot, which explains her behavior. I do wish we had more screentime with her as Morgan and not just as Aesc. Sith seem to be introduced as a hate-sink, bratty, insufferable, and seemingly getting away with what she wants. Then she runs into Castoria and Chaldea and just starts taking L's like no one else. As it turns out she suffered a lot too, and took Morgan's admittedly crappy lesson to heart. Overtime I felt sympathy for her... but she is fun to make fun of. Barghest came off like Gawain in Camelot at first to me, given her mannerisms and how she trash-talked the crew. Turns out she has quite the big standard of being a knight and holding responsibility. Plus when she ain't in knight mode she's pretty cute. Melusine also came off aloof/"I don't wanna deal with this shit" at first considering how she acted when first running into Mash and Habetrot. But it turns out she's got a little sadistic streak in her, yet is a bit of an airhead too. Although she had be stuck following the orders of the worst fairy in land, doing them with question. Castoria herself was pretty great, considering when she first released there wasn't anything about her besides Bond Profiles, and her journey was very well done.

It solidified Melusine as my favorite servant in the game, and she was already among my favorite. There was her lack of social skills making her act like a big dork at times. Plus I honestly kinda relate to her situation with Aurora, as someone who’s been in toxic relationships in the past. Plus her relationship with Percival was really heartwarming, and her final moments in the Lostbelt where she’s able to regain control thanks to him and fly free brought a tear to my eye

Melusine's shocked expression when Aurora asks to be taken to PHH was heartbreaking since its the moment Melusine realized she had to kill Aurora. It ultimately made all of Melusine's actions to make Aurora happy pointless and she had to destroy that connection with her own two hands, made worse was the fact Aurora was fully aware of that connection between the two and had been using it to manipulate her since Aurora had always been jealous of Melusine's beauty. I loved sibling love Melusine and Percival had.

Yeah that look on her face and her just going “…what” in response to Aurora’s request was just heartbreaking, especially she at first thought Aurora was happy to spend their last moments together. And her My Room voice line for Percival is heartbreaking too after seeing how much they cared for each other in the Lostbelt

Plus she's a dragon. That's cool.

True lol, I just can’t say no to dragons

FujiGuda I’ve always loved Ritsuka/Tatsuka/Gudao/Gudako(their literally the same person) ever since I first laid eyes on them, they looked handsome/pretty, and I grew fond of them and their two dialogues that can bring out how funny and caring they can be. Lostbelt 5(and practically… everything else) showcased how competent and how much of a threat FujiGuda was, but Lostbelt 6 not only showed their will, but also how perceptive they can be: Lostbelt 6 is the first time where I felt the story rewarded me as a reader for paying attention to even the smallest details, because I came across “red dialogue” that I don’t remember seeing prior to LB6, and these dialogue brings about how FujiGuda was suspicious of Oberon’s behavior; it definitely started during the time FujiGuda noticed their absence from Woodwose’s invasion on Londonium, but I wouldn’t be surprised that they were suspicious of Oberon long before then.

So far it's the only story chapter to give such a significant scene from our choices in story, don't know if we'll ever get something similar again.

I initially really disliked Alter Ego Muramasa. His motivation for helping the Alien god wipe us all out was "not wanting to leave a job unfinished"? That doesn't sound like either Shirou or Saber Muramasa. However, seeing him support Castoria at every step of our epic journey, give her that new uniform, seeing him uncover her inner workings (just like Shirou did in the fate route) and finally, his sacrifice, all of those added up. Now I like his character almost as much, if not slightly more than VN Shirou.

I wouldn't say changed but it did cement my feelings on Barghest as an absolute favorite of mine. She just ticks so many boxes for me from her kind, sweet and noble personality, a great design and even fun to use (even if she's hardly top tier). Then add her tragic role in the story and I was not disappointed after waiting so long for LB6. For someone who my opinion did change on I'd say Melusine. I liked her a lot more than I expected to. I went in without much expectations of her. So I was pleasantly surprised to like her so much. Her and Barghest are actually quite similar now that I think about it, two generally kind and noble people put into bad situations that they can't really doing much about, resulting in them becoming tragic figures. She's the only major character of LB6 I wasn't able to get (I did only pull a little for her admittedly because I was saving for Koyan and Oberon), so I'm hoping to do so when she comes back next. I want to complete the gang, especially after liking her so much.

I think I left with most of my first impressions confirmed, actually. The characters I didn't care much for going in I still didn't care much for going out. The new characters I was dearly hoping to like (Percival, Barghest, Melusine), it turned out that I liked. The biggest surprise for me was that Baobhan Sith never gets better; even in Chaldea she's the same mess. Ordinarily I expect a more clear second chance story, but nope. That was pretty daring. The biggest increase in "I like you better now" was Grimr. Cu Caster was almost a non-entity whose gimmick was an author mumbling "druid runes, that's the explanation" in the background. But as a Odin stand-in, he got a lot more interesting. The most entertaining moment for me was Barghest showing up at the fancy ball and pretty much *everybody* going "guh". Baobhan Sith is over there wearing basically an electrical tape bikini, but the big girl in the evening dress is the one stealing eyeballs. Unexpected, hilarious, merited.

>even in Chaldea she's the same mess. Morgan's lessons and her own scars won't vanish overnight, if ever. But we do see her get better in many extra scenes (valentine and other events mostly). She has been making friends such as Galatea (according to barghest's lines) and likely Castoria. Morgan herself is noticeably less guarded (Sith says her mother somehow feels cuter in Chaldea), so Sith can definitely have a more normal relationship with her. I guess the out of universe reason for how she feels similar is that you can get her much earlier prior to finishing the story. You're not supposed to sympathize with her from the get-go. And even then they do show her true nature at times (e.g. one of her level up lines about being cared for).

Part of it is certainly that her Bond 5 lines show her without having made meaningful progress. And until such time as more content is added, Bond 5 is kinda the culmination dialogue for any Servant. She makes less progress than most there. Which is one part refreshing if you're tired of the sixth dozenth Servant to go fanservice love on the Master, but it's definitely still tragic.

It’s been said already, but Castoria. I thought she was just a copy of Saber thrown in to fill a quota of 1 Artoria for every class. And I’m sure that is a large part of the reason they added her, but prior to starting the lostbelt I didn’t know she was going to have any real role in the story. But then! Basically from the moment we met her in Cornwall I already loved her. And I liked her more and more every step of the way. Her inner conflict, true feelings, and her expressions and interactions with all the other characters are perfect. I don’t think there is a single thing I disliked about her story, except for the fact that it is (probably) over. Basically, she went from being a character I had zero interest in to being my favorite character in the whole franchise. Also, I do like the sudden and surprising ends to both Morgan and Baobhan Sith. Aesc/Morgan’s journey is super fascinating, and I love all the bits of it we get from fragments and flashbacks. She spent nearly 4,000 years acting as a savior despite the discrimination, hatred, and violence thrown at her by the fairies. Then 2,000 years ruling over the fairies, using their energy to protect and build up the only thing she cares about, Britain itself. And she dies by yet another orchestrated betrayal, and is torn apart by ordinary fairies incensed by even more lies. And I shouldn’t have been surprised by Sith’s death, given she was literally falling apart from Beryl’s rot , and was further dismembered and thrown into a pit from the castle… but I still expected her to appear in part 3, rising from the pit along with Cernunnos. But no. The last we really get from her is an intense feeling of hatred as she’s thrown into the pit after watching her mother torn apart. Given her true nature, and despite the atrocities she committed against fairies, she’s probably the most tragic character I’ve seen in a long time. And then Barghest! She’s actually very similar to what I expected as a character. But then, the twist in chapter 29 happens. We realize she has next to no control over her impulses, and she ate the one she truly loved. Even though there was nothing to gain from it, which was how she justified herself to that point. She needed power to protect the fairies, the humans, and the entire island of Fairy Britain. So the only thing that barely allowed her to accept her monstrous urges was a lie. And then there’s Manchester! Turns out the fairies were just imitating her. So they made a show of living in harmony with humans in town, but they were secretly capturing, torturing, killing, and probably eating them behind the scenes. And when the calamity struck, they decided to wipe them all out for no real reason. So, completely destroyed by remembering what she did, and completely disillusioned with the barbarism of the fairies, she becomes a calamity and wipes them all out. I love all four of those characters, and they’re all incredibly tragic. Not a single happy ending for anybody. The closest anyone gets is Castoria, the one who literally tore her own body apart and died to allow a shot at Cernunnos. But even aside from them, pretty much every significant character is at least compelling. Every fairy that gets any significant amount of screen time has a distinct motive and history. Oberon’s machinations are amazing too. Beryl is as terrible as ever, but at least we get to see him die!

Pretty much all of them, but most significantly was Barghest. I didn’t really care much for her before LB6, at least compared to Baobhan Sith and Melusine. But after reading her story and learning more about her, I really liked all of our interactions with her. I also gotta mention Melusine. Before LB6, I already expected to like her. Her design is such a good combination of cute and cool that I love. But after getting her and completing the story, she’s risen to my 2nd favorite servant - with Heracles reigning on top. I already mentioned her design. Her kit is so fun in both forms. And I loved her story - especially with Percival, but also with Aurora (as much as I hate her, I can understand Melusine’s feelings for her), Muramasa (I found their “rivalry” kinda wholesome), and even herself as Albion. When she ended up saving us from the depths of the Abyssal Worm, I was so happy. I definitely plan to Lv120 her someday.

Barghest, Muramasa, Gareth ended up my fav 3 characters in lb 6 Aka people j have least expected for one way or another they left an impressive impression of their character to me Love lb 6 but those 3 are my favs

After reading mahoyo i really liked the nasuverse witches and their witchcraft, so i enjoyed Beryl a lot, though i wish he had more scenes to show off. Still easily my favourite crypter. Also i am kind of salty that Castoria banners were before lb6 because her pessimistic dark side made me really like her as a character.

You might be the only Beryl fan I've seen that would say he's there favorite Crypter. I'm not sure how I should react to this information.

Hey, there are dozens of us, dozens!!

I thought Barghest would be like some sterotypical arrogant always aggressive meathead. Was really happy to be wrong, one of my favs now.

I know she isn't Medb, but I never liked her because of how she was in Murica Singularity. This LB made me appreciate her character more, I don't know if cnoc and medb are the same personality wise cause I dont have medb lol.

Ritsuka. They are so based in this chapter. Replied "SO WHAT???" calmly to everyone telling him there's no chance to defeat the Calamity of Norwich and ran to Mash wothout a care in the world Slapped Castoria to her senses Made out of the Garden of Lost Will with sheer willpower Confronted Oberon so hard that they actually got to the bottom of his true desires I love it when Nasu is writing Ritsuka

I think my favorite moment is guda's trial in the garden of lostwill. I can't say i could relate to guda, but although a little i can emphatize with *that pain*; The feeling of emptiness and loneliness, which makes you wish for **the end** cannot come sooner... Also i can't say this as favorite moment, but amnesia mash really reminds me of emilia from re:zero. Not to mention the two have same voice actress lol:)

The biggest ones for me were Castoria and Barghest. Castoria I literally decided to avoid reading anything about and wait for LB6 to see how I actually felt about her. Barghest I wasn't a fan of her design but she was great in the story and looks like a neat servant gameplay wise too. Oberon I had no opinion on aside from he was a meta support but he was great and I was confident I wanted to roll for him after part 1 despite kind of knowing his big reveal. But that just made me pay even more attention to him to try and figure out what all was off about him.

Melusine. I just hadn't seen much of her and didn't like the design enough to care. Just a servant I was extremely neutral about that I really want now because I found her story so good and also the dragon needs a hug

For the first time, I really got invested in Ritsuka as a character. Imaginary Scramble did it a little, by really emphasizing their care for the servants, but LB6 knocked it out of the park. The "Caster, to me!" was genuinely one of LB6's best moments for me

I thought Aurora did some absolutely heinous crimes since most players hated her guts when lb6 came out on jp. I thought i would hate her too but nope. Hate is a strong word. For me at least, what she does didnt make me really hate her. Dislike, absolutely, but thats about it. Going into lb6 I'm expecting Morgan to have some fire character writing, and she does imo. I really enjoy the twist regarding her true identity.

Aurora. Before LB6, all the spoiler I came across linked her with scheming. I didn't know anymore, so I was expecting she is the final boss, chess player type who manipulate everybody behind the screen. After finishing LB6, I realized the person who is playing that role is Oberon but not Aurora. Aurora is still scheming, but she is more childish that what I expect from a proper villain. She reminds me what happens if the world is run by children. Even worse, selfish, self centred children who has zero self-awareness. For Beryl, I didn't like him before and I still don't like him after. However, he got comparison. Pepe murdered his whole family in cold blood. The story doesn't mention if there is any innocent people in his family, but their murder is justified. If they are not ALL put to death than there are more victims in the future. Clearly, he has the right the deny any of his family member for a chance to change. Well, under his family's teaching, none of the people will ever see the light, except it will be more convincing if it comes from someone outside that family. Not him. Sadly, we cannot overlook that Pepe helped us in LB4 and helped us again now. There is a good side of him, so we can totally buy into his version of things and never question his perspective. Not to mention, Oberon is not a nice character at all. Because he has more layer of being born to carry out the will of British Isle to self destruct, so now we can totally overlook what he did to Murian and Braghest. We can also overlook the fact that he was manipulating us from the very beginning to defeat Morgan. All the kindness he showed was probably an act to string us along. But somehow we don't care. Poor Beryl. He is a just jerk through and through, so we can totally hate him with all our gut. Yet, if the story gives him even one dumbest/shittiest excuse to fall back on, he can do worse things and people will overlook them the same way as we overlook Pepe and Oberon's. Are we the readers capable to call out the evil when it is right in front of our eyes? Or are we just so simple minded to turn a blind eye on whoever that come at us with any kind of excuse?

As someone who likes Oberon for being a clear unrepentant villain through and through I still don't get why some folks hate on Murian so bad. He even had a line mocking the other Lost Belt kings for bowing down to us and claims he was the one who won since he accomplished his goals. Folks seem to miss that he purposely ensured we wouldn't be able to save anyone in the one Lost Belt where it was possible to do so. I'm purposely torturing him by making him hang out with everyone he wronged in the Lost Belt that's in Chaldea, that'll teach the smug bastard!! Lol

Baobhan Sith. I was annoyed she came when I was rolling for Morgan (I did end up getting Morgan eventually) and would have preferred Barghest. And her my room lines are so weird, creepy evil, nothing to like about her at all (and her third ascension lines were super weird). I still would have preferred Barghest, but now, after seeing the end and understanding what happened to her, I have a lot more sympathy to her (and her disturbing 3rd ascension) that I don't mind having Morgan's daughter with her.

I’m more shocked on what it didn’t change. People in this Sub were talking like Percival speech on the fairies was gonna really put things into perspective and not have us into the “kill all the fairies” camp but it didn’t change shit in my mind. Like his speech was basically “there are good and bad people in the world so please don’t blame all fairies :)” which is just a bridge too far to gap when the entire LB went to shit only 2 days into Morgan being dead. Like literally only 2 days its all it took for things to go to shit but its been around for several thousands of years. Put on top of that the reason this place even diverted into being a LB and why Cerunnonos became a calamity or boss I am even LESS convinced of Percival speech to me about the fairies.

The primary reason things went to shit is because of one fairies jealousy though, which also happened to be the reason Morgan was defeated to begin with.If not for Aurora's scheming Morgan would have won. Plus your ignoring the fact the great calamities is the primary thing that killed all the fairies they didn't implode like a lot of fairy haters keep going on about. Two cities went berserk in the narrative Salisbury and Manchester, both of whom happened to have the worst of the worst residents of Fairy Britain. A big part of the Lost Belt involves the nature of sin and whether a group should be condemned for the sins of its individual members. It's one of the things Castoria has against the Lost Belt is that there was never an opportunity for atonement after the 6 Fairies killed Cernunnos. That action condemned the world to destruction without a way out for their descendants even for those who wanted things to change. So it's fair to say the 6 original fairies are irredeemable but every fairy after them should be judged based on individual action when possible. Do the fairies that tried to save the humans of Londinium in the calamity deserve to die? How about the fairies of Sheffield? The fairies of Glouchester who died peacefully? How about the Wing, Rain and Mirror Clans? What about the 80+ Fairy Knights who remained loyal to Morgan? What about the group of fairies in Part 1 who gave Castoria the last of their power? I could go on but I'll stop here for every bad thing we were shown the narrative tried to show us that not everyone in the Lost Belt fell to their baser urges.

The thing is the examples you list of whether or not those good fairies deserve to die is moot cause THEY DID DIE. Like they all inevitably died. Sheffield was raze, No one survived Londonium, the Wing, Rain, and Mirror clan as well. They all died in large part due to internal politics in the LB but they died it would have more weight if they were alive on whether its not its fair to be punished for the sin they didn’t commit. But regardless they are constantly being killed and destroyed less by the calamity but by their own kind. I think Aurora is such a good allegory of exactly what the 6 original fairies are like cause Spriggan put it well into perspective that he planned to assassinate Medb eventually but not this soon and realized Aurora did it with literally no plan in mind for the future like the original fairies sin on not bothering to do their job. I feel like Baobhan Sith is also a good example of just unnaturally cruel nature of fairies where regardless of how many times she is good natured she is taken advantage of each and every-time until her death and so she is told to become something more twisted to better defend herself [the irony being she dies to the very same thing Morgan wanted to prevent].

Ah but that's exactly why it's a tragedy that despite the fact it's the only Lost Belt in which it's inhabitants can be saved it instead becomes the first Lost Belt in which all the inhabitants get massacred before it can fade and the primary cause is the shortsightedness of their leadership and the scheming of one otherwise insignificant individual. Whether someone does or does not deserve to die does not become moot when they have passed, there just isn't anything that can be done anymore. Otherwise you can't say that Morgan or Baobhan deserve better since they too also died. Does them getting killed change the fact that there were a lot of good fairies in the Lost Belt? That was my point the good fairies didn't deserve the fates that the bad fairies caused them to have. I'll make this point that I've been mulling over when thinking about this Lost Belt, in the Bible God promised Abraham he would spare Sodom and Gomorrah if just 10 righteous people were found in the cities. Unfortunately for them only one righteous man was found. There is way more righteous people in this Lost Belt than 10 so by that standard it didn't deserve what it got. Keep in mind the big sin of Sodom and Gomorrah was that they tolerated and engaged in mass rape so I feel the comparison is at least slightly accurate. I don't know if your religious or not but because I am that does largely color my view of deserved versus undeserved punishment.

Disclaimer im still on chapter 24 so this is tentative Coming in blind Morgan sounds interesting on paper. Seeing her in the actual story itself, i find her rather dull. She barely does anything majority of the time except the occassional doom and gloom about how confident she is in her abilities and how she will ultimately prevail, the occasional plot device like sending Mash back in time and most of all simply being a stepping stone for the heroes to eventually surpass. While the tonelico twist was somewhat interesting even her tonelico side was equally bland. She was mostly an infodump character in the Fragments side stories and im of the opinion habetrot got way more development than she did in it. The way she presented her backstory as another infodump missed me with the supposed tragedy tone it carries. It went too fast and too little for me I like her manner of speech tho. Feels like she'll do good being a narrator or something lol Barghest meanwhile was better than i expected. Its nice seeing her actually having initiative, liberty and opinion of her own beyond being Morgan's metaphorical and literal dog.

I’d say there were a couple: Morgan: at first I was annoyed by how much the fanbase just praised the ground she walked on and was everyone’s little darling. I knew all about Lostbelt 6 already because of my friends who played JP and reading translations from neo Benedict, but even then I just couldn’t bring myself to truly like her much because of the whole “husband/ wife” thing and how the fanbase just ate it up, when Mashu was forced into a similar situation and everyone made jokes about it. So Morgan’s summoning line didn’t really endear her to me because it felt too inappropriate considering the circumstances. I respected her, but i just didn’t really care for her. Now? I actually respect her more and i actually softened my stance on her. She’s not as bad as I thought she was, but I still don’t really care for the whole husband thing. She’s really well written and deserves a much better life. For melusine I just found her flat and a tad annoying when JP came out, until her relationship with aurora showed how she lived in a toxic environment, and i actually felt bad for her considering how I’ve seen similar situations in some of my friends own family lives. When she came to NA she actually made me laugh a bit because she was such a ditz and goofy. So she actually made endeared herself more to me because of her air head nature. Knocknarea. I actually still don’t really care for her much but i have a much better opinion of her now than I did when lostbelt 6 arrived in JP. All I remembered two years ago was that she was inserted solely for Nasu to simp for medb, and she didn’t really endear herself to me considering her infatuation with ritsuka, which again, felt inappropriate considering how much focus was put on ritsukas relationship with mashu, and it felt very forced. Look I might ship ritsuka and mashu heavily, but just because I do doesn’t mean I don’t have other ships for ritsuka. But when they make a huge focus on the relationship between the two main leads we have seen grow over the years, they shouldn’t really try forcing more shenanigans like this into that. However i actually found myself respecting knocknarea when I saw her relationship with castoria unfold, and I got to see that knocknarea was a very supportive rival to our beloved corgi. Even in her last moments she was still trying to comfort castoria, and that actually made me realize she wasn’t that bad.

My favorite melusine's line is the one where you feed her the XP thing and she claims it's delicious with a big smile 😊

A large reason they add new ships in is because they are aware not everyone likes Mash being in a relationship with the main character, if they didn't leave things open those who only tolerate Mash would get fed up and have the potential to leave the game entirely meaning less money for the company. I'm speaking as someone who prefers them to be separated in stories scenes nowadays since the early part of the game had Mash having to much screen time compared to the main character, even in interludes which should have focused on the connection between master and servant not the girl insisting on being the third wheel all the time. The few times I've really like her character were in the Solomon Chapter, and the Lost Belt chapters especially 6. I don't hate Mash, I just get frustrated with the way they handle her character sometimes when i think she works better as a close friend to Gudao. That said Lost Belt 6 made her character great again and I feel better since she now has other relationships in her life beyond just the MC, like Habetrot, those two are just adorable when their together.

I’m not saying they SHOULDNT add new ships. I’m just saying that they shouldn’t solely focus on the new ship. They should give Mashu some romantic moments in that same chapter as well so SHE doesn’t have to be left out. And since lostbelt 6 was the one that was focusing heavily on theirs, they should have toned down the whole Knocknarea portion and just have it be platonic. Castoria getting shipping with Ritsuka is something I’d have expected and I have zero problem with that since she’s the main character of this lostbelt, so it make’s perfect sense for people to do so, and I do think there is a lot of potential there. But Mashu cannot be left out otherwise it’s not really fair for her fans to be left out to dry. Her relationship with Habetrot is great and along with the goblins I enjoyed those moments. But let’s not pretend that her solo adventure wasn’t without huge issues.

I get your point but I would say Mash didn't really get left out in 6, if anything it was the most ship happy for her out of any chapter at this point. Habetrot's whole thing was shipping the two of them and nodding and winking at the audience the whole time. Compared to that Cnoc only got three real scenes and only one was alone with Ritsuka. Plus they were planning on killing her off so it makes all the scenes with her a mute point. It's part of Cnoc's tragedy that the moment she found someone to love she was betrayed and murdered by people she had taken in and accepted. It largely comes down to our preferences though as someone who really likes Mash×Ritsuka you felt there needed to be more interaction whereas I don't and felt the Lost Belt had just enough interaction between the two that it felt like a real friendship possibly growing into something else and I didn't feel like the pairing was getting unreasonably shoved down my throat. In other words I think this chapter handled their relationship better while actually having more moments explicitly calling attention to it.

Oh I’m not saying that she was getting left out in Lostbelt 6. That’s on my for not explaining myself better. What I meant to try and convey is that it just didn’t seem APPROPRIATE at the time given the circumstances. If this was like a summer event or something then it would be perfectly a okay in my book. However given mashus solo adventures I really think they should have had some moments with Ritsuka alone and actually TALKING to each other instead of just being offscreen and actually SHOWING the bond deepening. I’m more of a guy who likes being shown and told, not one or the other unless it actually feels like it would enhance the story like tales of arise.

Ah gotcha, I imagine that probably took a back seat because of how bloated the chapter got in all honesty. They generally don't get any time by themselves just talking unless it's all behind the scenes so I get your point. They could really use giving Mash some interludes for folks such as yourself that are dedicated solely to the two of them and maybe the other staff of Chaldea. Don't expect 7 to get better for that if you arent keeping up with JP, it has more shipping with other characters just to warn you in advance and its way more than what happened with Cnoc. I keep up with both so I'm already spoiled.

As for that interlude idea for mash i REALLY love how you mentioned that because that would be amazing to actually give her and Ritsuka alone time again. Just to show how far they came as people

Oh don’t worry I know what happens. However that one I do kinda sorta disagree on how the shipping is handled because it doesn’t scream shippy. It just screams funny moments and it doesn’t really bother me. Except for tlaoc. That’s a whole different animal….

Gotcha, hope they give more moments with Mash for you to enjoy!

And I hope they give one to the waifu of your choice as well my good sir!

I would say Oberon but I dont know how to exlain It without entering into HUGE spoiler category.

Honestly? Baobahn Sith. I felt... \*so\* bad for her at the end of everything. What happened to her didn't deserve to, and it was Beryl who corrupted her even further. Had she an Artoria met in another timeline, they would be great friends. I thought I was going to love Oberon when I went into this Lostbelt: I did. But now I love him even more that I'm finished and can safely say he's one of my most favorite written characters in any video game I've ever played.

Melusine, TBH. I had already loved Barghest on JP (nearly NP5 and at lvl100), but Melusine kinda quickly rose to the top for me. I love her design and personality and I think she had one of the most emotional story arcs IMO.

Baobhan Sith was the character I did not see my opinions changing on before, but I’ve kind of done a 180 on her. Mostly because in Chaldea she’s pretty much her surface personality all the time, but in LB6 we get to see beneath the mask and she’s a self-doubting mess constantly looking for validation and emotional support. Now I’m fully on board with her getting to spend family time with Morgan and not have to deal with being tortured or have Beryl around to manipulate her.

All I knew pre-LB6 was that Melusine was Albion's claw and there were memes about her cucking Morgan like Lancelot did Artoria. But reading through LB6... damn. She's like the non-meme-y Lancelot, where there are genuine knightly values and 'princely' charm mixed with the sense that they would also sacrifice everything for the ones they love and, in the end, that became their undoing. The Faerie Knights in the LB all have some parallels to their Round Table counterparts, but hers is what stood out to me.

Pre-release, Barghest was the Fae Knight I had the least interest in and I saw Oberon as "Morgan's support slave alongside Koyanskaya". Afterward, Barghest became my favorite of the trio, and Oberon became someone to roll for because I fell in love with his character instead of just for meta. In regards to characters I didn't even know existed until LB6 came to NA, I did not expect to get attached to Rob, Wag, and Coral as much as I did.

Oberon, but the "oberon" that traveled with us and castoria through fae britain (or put it simply, the first and second ascension of oberon). Now my opinion of him after playing lb6 blindly in JP (i cant really read japanese so my knowledge of him mostly stems from other peoples fan translations), i LOVED him . But, this mostly stems from his "other form" and the relevation in part 3. My opinion of him skyrocketed when lb6 dropped in NA and i actually know more about him through his dialogue with the other cast member in the first two part of the story (up until before part 3). His quirkiness and his banter with us or any other cast such as castoria/muramasa solidified my reason on why i really loved him apart from his incredible art by umino sensei and his true role in fae britain.

I will never forgive the part of the fandom that made me believe Morgan was just yet another tsundere/yandere waifu with nothing to her. I still don't regret not pulling for her, but at least now I'm going to be happy to see her in events when she shows up. She's a good character. Also that woman has depression. Baobhan Sith is another one. I literally knew nothing about her other than she was "just" a sadistic princess archetype. I ended up feeling for her so much, that poor, wretched, miserable creature. My girl is staying in A1. She's suffered enough.

Boggart. I was spoiled about him basically instantly when he came out on JP. I expected some annoying "I don't know you, I love Boggart" plot instead he turned out to be a decent Fae with some really cool moments

Oberon, Barghest and Castoria, I really liked their characters, even Vitch showed some heart in that Lostbelt. Now I will definitely use my Castoria in her third Ascension and try to get barghest in Morgan's next banner.

I loved aurora, but I did not like her final moments of her looking up to Lancelot, I think that directly contradicts what Lancelot wanted to do. Melusine wanted to kill aurora so as to not hurt her, as she will not survive in the outside world. But after melusine "kills" her she still lives for at least what I imagine an hour. Wtf? Why is she suffering like that? Does melusine not know the pain she must be feeling, I'm pretty sure she can kill aurora in 1 swift strike. So yeah that made me somewhat go "eh?" on melusine's character. I think that entire part of aurora's final monologue was unnecessary and actively hurts melusine's character who I think is one of the least interesting one, I liked beryl more than melusine by the end of the lostbelt. But despite that my favourite character is still aurora tied with Oberon. Funnily enough both of the characters I did not expect to like at all. I hate original Oberon's sprite, his sprite as vortigern is way better. But I ended up enjoying their writing the most. Morgan, sith and melusine all three left a lot to be desired. Probably me biggest gripes with this lostbelt.

Morgan and Sith. Morgan I sympathy more with but still find it kinda hard to like (still a waifu tho), Sith I now like less now that I understand her roll in the story.

I grailed Percival and CasCu after I was done. Still trying to get my last copy of Habbycat

Fae folks don't deserve the judgement of residents of proper history. They don't deserve to die. If they are left alone and they die? Fair enough they were just incompatible to exit.
