Maybe that's true but I don't think that'll be something we see because after all he's only a teen he has his whole life ahead and plenty of youth left to still carry the burden
@@L_Nivale Fujimaru went through many hardships that was way beyond a hero can withstand, we see the Count of Monte Cristo is keeping the darkness at bay in Fujimaru's mind and soul, the amazing poison resistance that even the medical servants is very sus about it, if he's a normal human, Fujimaru would gone insane or his body broke from the singularities and lost belts, being able to summon divine and extra class servants and the most suspicious thing about Fujimaru is that the priestess of the foreign god is always closely watching over him/her
I feel like when the story ends Caldea knows they can't go back and fling themselves into the multiverse to explore realities forever. The classic "We go on to have other adventures that we probably won't see but there's more optimism." ending.
12:40 Musashi's dimension hopping abilities only exists because her world was pruned There is actually another example of this in an FGO April Fools game called Fate/Grail League, where a character named Rokka is implied to be a Fujimaru from a timeline where she failed to defeat the One Radiance Thing
2 years actually, now almost 3 years if memory is right. Part 1 and 1.5 takes place within the span of 1 year, while Part 2 started at new year. Also as far as I'm aware the only true canon "christmas" is the eresh one
I wonder what if the Tower was aware of Ritsuka's feats in Lostbelts. He would be hunted down for sure in case he retired, since all of his knowledge proved too valuable to be left alone, especially the one regarding ORT, which is a complete myth and an impending threat to the mages and humanity. If Ritsuka dies either of "incidents" or old age, he/she will almost certainly become Counter Agent or Heroic Spirit since Ritsuka must be overqualified for the job at least 100 hundred times already. Maybe he would be a Master employed by Counter Force to be summoned along with some selected Servants to deal with extremely risky cases. In short, it's hard to think Ritsuka would ever find true peace.
Ritsuka is actually not qualified for a Servant at all for one reason: being well known is a prerequisite to go to the Throne and I really can't see Ritsuka accepting the Counter Guardian job offer.
@@jonathangoodwin5609the question would be if recorded servant memories count towards notoriety, cuz if yes then fujimaru and chaldea would be in a lot of servants memories shen they return to the throne so that would count for quite a lot.
@@jonathangoodwin5609 bro, we all know that is just BS atp Like, ffs, Mandricardo didn't have a Wikipedia page until FGO added him in Or the Hassans can be summonable even though we know nothing much about them Or hell, CHARLOTTE CORDAY
@@jonathangoodwin5609Dante said if Fujimaru wanted, he could become the greatest avenger of all time. So, fate is yet again breaking its own rules. Somehow, he can in fact become a Servant.
@lazybuddah9639 the bigger question is whether or not being known by only a couple hundred individuals is actually enough, cuz in the grand scheme of humanity, that's not very famous.
Spoiler for Ptolemy’s valentine story! He gave us the key to the actual alexandria library. Saying Fujimaru can do whatever he wants with it after the adventure ended. Selling it or going on another adventure or whatever. He was worried about Fujimaru not able to go back to his ordinary life and reminding him how he has a life beyond this world saving journey. Man this fits so well because it’s Ptolemy saying this, a person that lived his life after his own adventure ends! A very good scene, recommend checking it out when the valentines event hits again!
I feel like the only thing keeping the two MCs sane and human is mash, without mash, he loses his humanity, it was shown slightly in Solomon that without mash, he would lose his humanity and literally get a bad ending where they might die entirely because mash was his one true link to humanity, despite her not being actually human
At this point, our MC will become the eighth beast. The Beast of Fulfillment. If their complete the grand order, Cosmo in the lostbelt, ordeal call, next mission next.
Possible happy ending for Ordeal call: Mash can't return to proper human due being an extra class, so Fujimaru stays with her as Chaldea leaves. All the servants also decide to follow after them to create a new world on the bleached earth. Unless we get part 3...
@@blaneonthemoon2507not really, they only became lostbelt due to the fantasy tree anchoring them which would be the issue of this ending theory. If this theory would be the case they need to find a mana source large enough to anchoring them to existence.
Mash was surrounded in darkness and her story is about her reaching, obtaining the light. Fujimaru is the exact opposite, jaded and dishearten by what he has done, seen, experienced. Imagine Fuijmaru committing self-deletion because of all this, unable to handle it all. Mashu would be devastated, would she carry his legacy? Travel back in time?
His best case scenario is making a contract with the world probably and continuing as a force for protecting the world. With mash potentially eventually becoming a full blown heroic spirit they can continue on together. Realistically if they tried to live a normal life or be a mage theyd both eventually get attacked either to be sealed or taken advantage of.
never make a deal with alaya/gaia, its not best to become a counter force/guardian, insert shirou/archer life.... it might ruined them or not. the best ending is to live a life with their love once and enjoy what time is left for them to enjoy. fujimura is slowly but surely dying inside however if mashu can lessen the weight of the responsibility, it can be just the fujimura bloodlines oath/ legacy to save the world... fujimura and mashu kids to take the mantle/ responsibly
What you didn't mention is that dangers for Fujimaru lie beyond just mages. Let's not forget the amount of times Fujimaru gets targeted/kidnapped (even in dreams) by various abominations, servants, foreigners from beyond universe etc., that took some interest or issue with him. From demon pillars seeking revenge for Goetia (albeit those seem to be dealt with, but some other contender may take issue with their actions) defeat to various entities that become fixated with him for one reason or another. Now Fujimaru rocked the boat and dealt with such creatures enough time that he got noticed by various powerful entities, and they know about him. He may be further targeted after he leaves. If I were this guy, while I would want to return home, I would be seriously worried if all those instances where I'm getting targeted, even within my dreams, will cease, and mind you, the only line of defense against such situations for him are servants from Chaldea (like Dante). So even if Mages in general stay ignorant about him, other even more powerful beings already know about him.
Somebody posited that Fujimaru would be forced to continue protecting humanity by becoming a servant while Mash gets to live the life she was never able to
That would be an ironic ending honestly. Going back to part 1 it was Fujimaru and Romani making future plans about what they would do after the adventure while Mash was satisfied with the adventure itself. Meanwhile.....
You know the flashing people thingy at some point in Men in Black movie? Yeah, it might be a bless for them. They might sometimes hear voices and think it was a ghost or they are losing their mind, but it actually some Servants visiting them from time to time. Perhaps they could become a big shot in the mage's world and appear as a reference in FGO 2? Who knows!
I’ve got two ideas: either we go to space and take on the Servant Verse; or we die, get engraved in the throne of heroes and come back as the Grand Avenger. I’d prefer the second option and think about it: we’ve more than fulfilled the requirements for being a hero, we’ve had the first avenger living rent free in our head fighting our trauma and we’ve “avenged” the WORLD and ALL OF HUMANITY twice over. If that doesn’t qualify us as a grand servant, I don’t know what would. Plus, getting ourselves as a servant as a reward at the end and then taking the mantle of a new protagonist would be pretty cool.
dantes did say that if fujimaru became an avenger then he and avenger-maru could straight march against the alien god, brawl, and then was confident they'd win
I will repeat a comment here that I made in October 2024 in the Chaldea Gurus Discord server: Having watched BB Dubai's motivation explanation [that was in Ordeal Call 3] really strengths my believe that FGO's concept of "taking back our future" is meant to be delivered in two packages Part 1 was about the will to live. Nasu's classical beauty in the (futile) struggle. In the end it was Fujimaru's will/wish to not die that made Goetia learn the same, that concluded the fight against the incineration of mankind. Part 2 might be about passing with dignity. Letting go and entrusting the future (and the memory of the past [which is why the pruning is to be opposed; why Fujimaru's compassion for the LBs is so important]) to another generation. There is a reason why "taking back our future" is a collective, and not an individual task. One cannot go on forever, but the next in line will continue to walk a path towards a future. This why I too believe that Fujimaru' and Mashu's story will be over with the end of part 2. Chaldea as concept though is something that will not be tossed away. It has been confirmed in an interview by Takeuchi that there is content for a year 11. But it was also hinted that part 2's end will change everything and it (or at least the beginning of it) will be coming in year 10. Which is why I believe there will be new protagonist for post Part 2 content (and that will also be the time Nasu is not writing an overall FGO plot anymore).
Doubt it, they would have to rework the entire bond lines of over 300 servants and there's also the people that get really mad about NTR so if any of the servants show a romantic interest in the new protag people will go crazy
For me, I figure a fitting end would be something triggered by a question I have long had, why is it the "Throne" of heroes? Why not the testament, or the land, or the library, or something? Most the servants are not rulers, and thus it is rare for them to have thrones, and thrones are generally something you associate with a gathering of people or knowledge. So my thought was that it may actually be an empty throne, one awaiting a particular master. So essentially, Fugimaru has been tested all this time to take that throne, proving him/herself to be able to bond with servants of all types, good, evil, chaotic, ordered, etc. Our ultimate end may be that the throne calls us to it. Mash would likely join us, and we could use our new power to protect those others from Chaldea. It is a continued fight but a fitting one I think. If you want to do it as a story part you could have the previous owner of the throne call on you and you have to do the final proof of worth to take over.
Is called the Throne of Heroes because they are the peerless ones, representing mankind's pinnacles, and important enough to be removed from the reincarnation cycle and becoming eternal Some were kings true, but is refered more on the sense that they represent the best (and sometimes the worst) of mankind, standing far above of a normal human
Honestly, with everything they experienced how can they even go back to a normal life? They witnessed more things and experiences than most people, encountered Gods, Foreign Entities, and most recently ORT. Whether they like it or not, they’re deep in this, too deep that any sense of normalcy is near unobtainable.
That would just put target on Kadoc's back if mages start digging (which is why they tried to downplay Fujimaru involvement in singularities in the first place).
That would not be fair to Kadoc and Ritsuka wouldn't accept it not because he likes credit but because he wouldn't want Kadoc to be blamed. He only accepted Romani taking credit because Romani was already gone.
If i'm fujimaru im getting Abigail Williams to come back and take me on a multiversal adventure. Or i'm following one of the living servants back to their worlds top picks being Erice to the requiem world or Gray to the case files world. Another option is getting hakuno to take me to Seraph because she offered. And finally just heading to the servantverse possibly.
My concerns for Fujimaru are due to how ungrateful the Mage's Association was towards them after the Incineration of the Human Order Incident and how Da Vinci and Holmes had to keep falsifying records to protect them when the inspections and interrogations happened and now things are even more screwed up after the Earth's bleaching on top of the missing year from the IotHOI with BOTH incidents directly involving the Chaldea Security Organization and Ritsuka Fujimaru. I know that Goredolf said that they wouldn't have to worry about a Sealing Designation due to his own influence within the Clock Tower, but that feels like a flag for the opposite to me, especially since the Ordeal Calls had the correction over the number that have to be cleared were clearly a flag that the originally stated number is the amount that need to be cleared to complete Part 2. Nasu also stated that Part 2 would have a "bittersweet" ending some time ago, IIRC which also makes me feel that way since he seems to prefer writing those kinds of endings.
my best case scenario after the whole saga. Fujimaru and Mashu will live on an isolated island with the whole Chaldea staff and servants where they will have to protect the Sheba and Chaldea system. or Fujimaru will become the new Director of Chaldea to at least have a fighting ground against the mages association
Uses the buckets of grails they’ve got to reincarnate their favourite servant and freaking retire. I’m accepting nothing less for someone that’s lived through absolute hell and struggled against near impossible odds.
If we ever get a Beast of Humanity Ritsuka or Gudako and seeing Mash be an Alter because they just had enough of everyones bs. That might be interesting. On the other it will also be interesting if we saw an Alternative end to Heaven's Feel as a Singularity like Sakura winning or Sakura alone not being corrupted but also some of the other cast Rin or Shirou Medusa as an Example. And we could see Angra Mainyu as a Beast. Considering Fuyuki is Considered as a Speacial Anchor for Singularities. But that's just my opinion.
Honestly, I see a lot of fanart of Ritsuka with the Black Young Goat design, which is kinda Cannon. And it might be a plot twist of Ritsuka still having the power of that form. It's kinda ironic the perosn who has saved the human order is now against it.Plus, I think Gudako in that form is cute and hot at the same time.
If he died, he would be summon by Counter force as Grand Master, taking commands of grand servants. Imagine if we have playable Guda Maybe he did something like Hakudo summoning Mashu(Extra), Jalter+Eresh(Buster), Melt+Kama(Quick), Castoria(Art). His final Ascension will be all 7 grands
Novum Chaldea are basically criminals for overthrowing the human order. Ritsuka will receive a seal designation for controlling multiple shadow servants, a feat no ordinary mages can do especially someone of his caliber. Ritsuka will be in hiding all his life.
That's if he gets to escape or even get into human order at all. Alaya is a bitch and I know damn well it's always looking for a cg or grand to overwork unpaid
00:46 - They are adults already, it passed almost 10 years of journey. Yes, they celebrate summer, christmas, new year with us, this is proved by Da Vinci talking abou new year commemoration in the final chapter of Tunguska even the time in the world has "stopped".
Decent ideas. I think, practically speaking, we're getting a part 3 and maybe 3.5 after 2.5 ends. For the "true"ending i would like to headcanon the following: Goredolf stays on as head of chaldea, transforming it into a more legit/recognized part of the mage world/clocktower. Da vinci (lily) stays on as technical advisor since she is technically a homunculus and not a servant if i remember correctly. I like the idea of Fujimaru being incompatible with the "normal"world and becoming a wanderer Musashi style. Mash would wander together with Fujimaru, not because she doesn't want to live in the normal world but becasue she can't imagine a live without Fujimaru and it's her choice to go with him. Maybe we see a picure of them with a child or children (theris or adopted) in the future becoming a wandering family. This would allow for both Fujimaru (male or female) and Mash to cameo in the future while also keeping room for some smaller future stories involving them and Gordolf and the new Novum Chaldea.
12:11 what... so like Zelretch?... that would have to include Fujimaru somehow reaching the Root and adquiring somwthing similar to the Second Magic.... which would be pretty cool...
I see two possibilities for the MC: either they become a) a Beast of Humanity, a new enemy for the next MC to face or b) they become a part of Alaya, essentially a biological representation of the Throne of Heroes, sacrificing their own Humanity to preserve the Heroic Spirits and PHH.
Sealing designation probably would be a result of learning about them in order to keep their unique characteristics just like Touko aozaki they even have a mage rank what I’m not sure that or fairy hunting
Ritsuka will be similar to Luka on Monster Girl Quest Paradox Chaos ending , where he will be a God of Chaos and rayshift to every possible world to fix all the messed ups he had done in the first place
@ yes part 3 has for now 3 endings : 2 of the 3 are pick you poison if you had played LOC and fought 2 superb bosses you know why and the chaos route is the 3rd ending you must finish both the other 2 before going for this
Since Servant's power often related to their feat. If Fujimaru become one they'll be either a Savior class or a Grand "Grand" Class. Cause his feat as of now is Defeating all 7 the beast of humanity (except V) and extra beasts that manifest. Not to mention defeating an Ultimate One despite it's weaker form. They're gonna be the ultimate Alaya's trump card if push comes to shove cause he embodies Humanity.
I believe if Ritsuka want to retire they unable to go back to their normal life due to the amount of PTSD, and Guilt they must endure. Not to mention they will be huntdown by Mage Association thinking them as a test subject to reach The root. The only thing that maybe a possible end for Ritsuka they became a Servant or becoming a Beast.
To be fair I would consider it an improvement all risk considered and stress. However financially Fujimaru is likely very secured considering Vinci transferred supposedly very large amount of money after Part 1.
Theory for fujimaru after chaldeas : maybe after everything is over fukimaru go back home feel the sin of the action erasing lostbelt then will go back to chaldea to bring back all lostbelt he erased.
I have always guessed that in the end both Mash and Ritsuka will stay together and either run Chaldea as Directors while Goredorf remains as the "Owner" or will use magic to distort Chaldea out of general reality while Mash and Ritsuka sightsee across the globe with servant backup. It just feels like after everything they've gone through they deserve at very least an optimistic ending. I can't see Mash leaving Ritsuka either since he was a major part of her becoming "human" and Mash has been Ritsuka's anchor to humanity since the Lostbelts started. He could easily snap without Mash being there to bring him back from the proverbial ledge. Plus I just like the image of a 40 something Ritsuka and Mash running Chaldea with their 3 kids running about the place; servants inhabiting the base and the Clock Tower/Association just avoiding ticking them off since they'd effectively have the power to wipe them out with 200+ servants. Then a mysterious servant is summoned and its Mash Alter having summoned herself from another reality looking to save her Ritsuka.
I think there's still more to say. There's one last hoorah for him i know there is. I definitely think fgo will go on just like it's always done with him still as the mc
Honestly I can see Nasu making Part 3 but this would be the actual finale that somehow involves Alternate Futures, since Singularities were set in the Past and LostBelts technically were in the same modern time even with their divergent points, where at the end Fujimaru saves the world one final time before going on a new journey of their own, while we players would move forward with FGO II.
If the threat of singularities continue, I imagine Chaldea or whats left of it will just either continue working to fix those or rebrand themselves with a new name to do it. After all even during the bleach earth we still get random singularities here and there that we need to deal with, I imagine those will continue. So Fujimaru could become a permament member of Chaldea, or maybe retire and become an aprentice to another mage for protection, and I see no reason he cant be with Mash, Shirou ends with saber and Rin in one ending of the fate stay night visual novel, you call it bland and cliche but I prefer a happy ending over a sad one any day of the week.
Odds are good its going to be open ended like the end of Arc 1, just in case they decide they want to continue. Which means the story ends however you want it to end. For example, Ptolemaios raises a good point that, after everything we went through, a mundane life would probably be torture. Maybe we will follow his Valentines advice and seek out the Library of Alexandria. Maybe Chaldea realizes that, after two end of the world scenarios, they probably shouldn't shut down. And then Ritsuka gets a full time job, dealing with the singularities that inevitably continue to pop up like clockwork.
I have this «prolog to the end» idea. Where the cast of chaldea goes to a singulerity or lostbelt where nothing whent wrong inn the prolog chapter. Just imagein the whiplash everybody woude fell too see the dead alive agean among other things. (I know, my speling is crap)
Imagine Fujimaru's story ends on the 13th anniversary ( if it reaches there) and ends on a very depressing note ( maybe similar like Kiritsugu's tragedy?)
in Hakuno case (i will use her becase all the extra/extela games ia was playng with femel hakuno) she is put as the operator of the wepans to pretect seraph and to be frank a normal day in seraph include: Saber creating a new statue of herself, geting in an argument with caster for said statue, escalating in a civil war wild bb is eating half of the moon agane, Archimedes trying to distroi humanity agane, and you have The Master Of The Moon, wich is Hakuno trying and somehow maneging all that resorving everithing by the end of the day. Did I miss something?

Just make Ritsuka Fujimaru be the 3rd president of Chaldea, the 英霊王 Eireiou (The King of Heroic Spirits), and maybe the Gojo Satoru of the Fate Universe. I think *WE* the players deserve that at least.
I haven’t finished LB7 yet, and I’m NA only, so I definitely don’t know much about Ordeal Call, and that’s intentional on my end. But I like to imagine that in the end, Fujimaru’s story will come to an end, one way or another, and Mash will then take on the “role” as Senpai herself for a whole new person or persons. Thus the “Fate” cycle continues.
While going on to live a normal life on her own would make a narratively fitting conclusion to Mash's character arc, I really just can't see her ever choosing to let Ritsuka deal with things alone. And somehow being *forcefully* separated instead...it would feel too much like the HF normal ending.
Well.. I have even worse idea) All of cast with mash found out by association.. but due to connections of Sion they are able to negotiate a reasonable agreement. But then some of policies department mages decide that goredolf can be too powerful and organize a secret assault on him, killing all the staff..and mash. They Fijimaru returns to a devastated by fire place and goes completely mad, creating crisis for the mage world all by himself by calling to the support of the staff, who all turn into a heroic spirits themselves by merit of being final humanity protectors. And so next project is an aftermath of Chaldea's existence. And the reason, why Goethia actually manifested on phh side - as the one and only who can clear mistakes left by the Solomon himself..
End of Caldea. Mash and Fujimaru get married (not mattering what gender Fujimaru is), they get a good job at working with the clock tower together, becoming a teacher. Also, they either adopt a kid later in their life (female Fujimaru) or make a child with mash (male Fujimaru).
Not sure what they could possibly teach at the Clocktower. Ritsuka and Mash know next to nothing about how magecraft actually works, and you can't exactly teach a class on Harem Protagonist EX.
Fujimaru ultimately going to the Servantverse seems to me as potentially the most likely answer. While the events are technically non canon, they also do happen. Quite frankly, I can't help but shake the feeling that the events, as silly and nonsensical as they are, reveal some sort of truth about the Last Master - if that makes sense. By doing what he's done, Ritsuka has kind of separated himself from normalcy. A person who has summoned heroes, gods and monsters, faced eldritch monstrosities, traveled through space and time, and by all intents and purposes partook in and was a main agent in not one but a number of Pruning Phenomenon... That person cannot go back to being normal. By his very actions, I feel that Ritsuka has, ironically, Pruned himself from normalcy. He is still part of the Foundation of Humanity and a keeper of it, but he must remain, for the most part, out of it. Independently, Ritsuka is certainly getting inscribed into the Throne. I've seen some people saying he could potentially become a Savior Class. Of course, the most common are Grand Ruler, Grand Avenger and a Beast.
I thought some events are technically cannon due to the temple of Solomon including servants from said events or being apart of the main interludes like CCC and Christmas in the underworld.
Other way around; events are technically all canon, even if the point in time they happen in can get fuzzy. The servantverse is 100% confirmed to be a thing by the fact that X showed up to help in the fight against Solomon, and in the latest Lostbelt the events at Enma-tei got confirmed too.
Something people arent considering are a couple very important details so be aware IM going to spoil certain things. . . . . . . . . . . . . Theres 4 things that we need to take note of regarding FGO and its main story line. -Its mentioned in Lostbelt 7 in the start that Mash is border line close to reaching her "peak" and may turn into a Ghost Liner. A Ghost Liner as far as Im aware is another name for a servant. But meanings are meant to be expanded upon so its something to consider. -The Avenger Ordeal Call took the most out of Fujimaru, and we by that Ordeal Call's story, Fujimaru has the potential to become one of, if not thee strongest Avengers should they give in. He doesn't but the potential is there. We love the Avengers (for the time being as the current translations imply they can come back should Chaldea become more suitable for them to coexist without their Spirit Origins eroding.) -There is one MAJOR thing people are over looking with the Ordeal Calls. They are trials by fire to force us to understanding the Extra Classes we utilized such as Alter Ego and Foreigner. It has been confirmed that there wont be a Pretender Ordeal Call, but they never mentioned anything againt A SHIELDER ORDEAL CALL. We got a surprise one for Moon Cancer. Mash's existence is already considered as a sin because she's a cross between being a human AND servant. GALAHAD ALSO REFUSED to particiapte in the Lostbelts, only having us being able to fully access OG Mash in Lostbelt 6 due to extenuating circumstances. He has not had a proper voice in the entire span of FGO. The Shielder Ordeal Call can and will happen. Characters like Leonidas actually fit the bill for it. Achilles does as well. -Lastly, to address the idiots who are claiming EOS. The game makes too much money, the game wont die until Nasu himself along with Sony decide to take it out back like Old Yeller. And FGO has been an active way for Nasu to REIMPLENENT older concepts he's had brewing for a long time like ORT and The Ultimate Ones. Notes wasnt touched until FGO. Its far to valuable of an asset to to get rid of, not to mention, the attachment people have to the game and Fujimaru as a whole. If they used a new character, theyd have major shoes to fill. Its impractical to replace them. We will get a 3rd Arc in the story. Its inevitable.
I have a lot of thing to say about this video but since the future stories are tied closely with Fate/Extra, I won't say anything (cuz I also didn't play it 😂) tho I already have a rough idea what he became in the future (sauce OC2)
I remember seeing a story like that though the worlds Fujimaru visits were other series like kenja no mago. I liked what you proposed but here is more. When Fujimaru dies because of what he did and the bonds with the servants. Do you remember the ending of Titanic? That but instead of the titanic it's the throne of heroes.
One thing I don't see happening is a comfirmed ship at the end. I feel as though there are too many servants who are hinted at potentially having romantic interests in the MC for a single one to be comfirmed. It wouldn't be fair to Mash if it wasn't her, but it also wouldn't be fair to the rest of the servants who have romantic interest in the MC if she was the comfirmed ship and it wouldn't be fair to the players who have gotten attached to another servant more.
@ I went into that chapter fully expecting that to be the case after 2 years of JP players hyping it up. But honestly, the story didn't really push it that much and the reunions with Mash were played much more emotionally than the little romantic tension Castoria got. The story only really pushes alternate "main heroines" when Mash is stuck back at Chaldea, like in Shinjuku and SERAPH.
@ I don't know much about that one since I can't read moonrunes. But that's the one that doubles as last year's summer event, right? If so, that's pretty standard; summer events always have little shipping scenes with several different characters, it's part of their whole shtick.
The mages’ association is so goddamn evil in this world that if a massive genocide happens to them, no one would bat an eye. Just leave Waver and Rin alive, man.
They're more amoral than anything, and they have their place. It's usually their enforcers that hunt down rogue mages which, while decidedly for the non-altruistic purpose of maintaining the secrecy of magecraft, does end up keeping people safe from crazy bastards more often than not.
SPOILERS AHEAD!! . . . Just a reminder that a certain count mentioned that if Fujimaru wanted to be an avenger NOTHING could deny him the right, stating that he would be "The most Avenger of all Avengers" at that time fujimaru had gotten less than a week of a normal life. That boy is holding on by a thread.
Brother you are very fluent in your theories, but damn son, you lack knowledge about the overall nasuverse, and shit alot of you say goes totally out when LB7 ends , not even starting ordeal calls.
Look, given what I've seen of the story thus far, I feel like a perfectly happy ending at the end is unrealistic. Several parts of the story put a heavy emphasis on sacrifice for the benefit of the world, so Fujimaru's death at the end would be thematic to the story. Meanwhile, I can see Goredolf returning home at the end of the day, perhaps even offering Mash room and board to get her life off the ground, though that may be a bit too optimistic. Mash is a human being, technically, but as a creation of a mage, she's also Chaldea property; it's debatable if she would even be allowed to leave Chaldea if she wanted to once things end. The Chaldean staff could probably leave, but people are quick to forget the fact that the Singularity incident ended with the Mage's Association wanted to discipline the staff for rule-breaking, which might've resulted in arrest and imprisonment. And once humanity is restored, there's no guarantee they'll remember that humanity was erased at all. So there's a decent chance they'll be punished first, possibly by being arrested and imprisoned for a while. Though, I can see Goredolf escaping that fate via his family, which he will probably have to contend with after the fact. And none of that is getting into how well the rest of Chaldea's staff is doing, mentally. This journey has been hard on them, too. So who knows if they can ever properly integrate into society again. Maybe Goredolf will start a new venture and hire them himself...assuming his mother and father don't disown him.
This is kind of a fun, thinking-only video. Pretty sure I've got some plot holes here and there, but hey, theorizing things is always fun.

@@L_Nivale Fujimaru went through many hardships that was way beyond a hero can withstand, we see the Count of Monte Cristo is keeping the darkness at bay in Fujimaru's mind and soul, the amazing poison resistance that even the medical servants is very sus about it, if he's a normal human, Fujimaru would gone insane or his body broke from the singularities and lost belts, being able to summon divine and extra class servants and the most suspicious thing about Fujimaru is that the priestess of the foreign god is always closely watching over him/her
I feel like when the story ends Caldea knows they can't go back and fling themselves into the multiverse to explore realities forever. The classic "We go on to have other adventures that we probably won't see but there's more optimism." ending.
So kinda like musashi?
12:40 Musashi's dimension hopping abilities only exists because her world was pruned
There is actually another example of this in an FGO April Fools game called Fate/Grail League, where a character named Rokka is implied to be a Fujimaru from a timeline where she failed to defeat the One Radiance Thing
It'd be cool if Musashi was actually on a secret killing spree like Sylvie from Loki.
Doesn't King Arthur also have dimension hopping abilities thanks to Lady Merlin to hunt down one of the beasts that does the pruning or something
"they're still teenagers" *looks back at prologue of lostbelt one* *8 years ago*
Bearly 1 year in game, but point taken.
@@GM-lx7ji Wait I'm missing something but didn't event stories went through several different Santas each year, Christmases and new years?
2 years actually, now almost 3 years if memory is right. Part 1 and 1.5 takes place within the span of 1 year, while Part 2 started at new year.
Also as far as I'm aware the only true canon "christmas" is the eresh one
I wonder what if the Tower was aware of Ritsuka's feats in Lostbelts. He would be hunted down for sure in case he retired, since all of his knowledge proved too valuable to be left alone, especially the one regarding ORT, which is a complete myth and an impending threat to the mages and humanity. If Ritsuka dies either of "incidents" or old age, he/she will almost certainly become Counter Agent or Heroic Spirit since Ritsuka must be overqualified for the job at least 100 hundred times already. Maybe he would be a Master employed by Counter Force to be summoned along with some selected Servants to deal with extremely risky cases. In short, it's hard to think Ritsuka would ever find true peace.
Ritsuka is actually not qualified for a Servant at all for one reason: being well known is a prerequisite to go to the Throne and I really can't see Ritsuka accepting the Counter Guardian job offer.
@@jonathangoodwin5609the question would be if recorded servant memories count towards notoriety, cuz if yes then fujimaru and chaldea would be in a lot of servants memories shen they return to the throne so that would count for quite a lot.
@@jonathangoodwin5609 bro, we all know that is just BS atp
Like, ffs, Mandricardo didn't have a Wikipedia page until FGO added him in
Or the Hassans can be summonable even though we know nothing much about them
Or hell, CHARLOTTE CORDAY
@@jonathangoodwin5609Dante said if Fujimaru wanted, he could become the greatest avenger of all time. So, fate is yet again breaking its own rules. Somehow, he can in fact become a Servant.
@lazybuddah9639 the bigger question is whether or not being known by only a couple hundred individuals is actually enough, cuz in the grand scheme of humanity, that's not very famous.
Spoiler for Ptolemy’s valentine story!
He gave us the key to the actual alexandria library. Saying Fujimaru can do whatever he wants with it after the adventure ended. Selling it or going on another adventure or whatever. He was worried about Fujimaru not able to go back to his ordinary life and reminding him how he has a life beyond this world saving journey. Man this fits so well because it’s Ptolemy saying this, a person that lived his life after his own adventure ends! A very good scene, recommend checking it out when the valentines event hits again!
I feel like the only thing keeping the two MCs sane and human is mash, without mash, he loses his humanity, it was shown slightly in Solomon that without mash, he would lose his humanity and literally get a bad ending where they might die entirely because mash was his one true link to humanity, despite her not being actually human
At this point, our MC will become the eighth beast. The Beast of Fulfillment. If their complete the grand order, Cosmo in the lostbelt, ordeal call, next mission next.
or he can became Savior
Possible happy ending for Ordeal call: Mash can't return to proper human due being an extra class, so Fujimaru stays with her as Chaldea leaves. All the servants also decide to follow after them to create a new world on the bleached earth.
Unless we get part 3...
In theory, wouldnt that create another, larger, lostbelt.
@@blaneonthemoon2507not really, they only became lostbelt due to the fantasy tree anchoring them which would be the issue of this ending theory. If this theory would be the case they need to find a mana source large enough to anchoring them to existence.
Fujimaru is like WW2 German Veteran who survived and joined all conflicts even after 1945.
Mash was surrounded in darkness and her story is about her reaching, obtaining the light.
Fujimaru is the exact opposite, jaded and dishearten by what he has done, seen, experienced.
Imagine Fuijmaru committing self-deletion because of all this, unable to handle it all.
Mashu would be devastated, would she carry his legacy? Travel back in time?
That's not mash fujimaru
His best case scenario is making a contract with the world probably and continuing as a force for protecting the world. With mash potentially eventually becoming a full blown heroic spirit they can continue on together. Realistically if they tried to live a normal life or be a mage theyd both eventually get attacked either to be sealed or taken advantage of.
never make a deal with alaya/gaia, its not best to become a counter force/guardian, insert shirou/archer life.... it might ruined them or not. the best ending is to live a life with their love once and enjoy what time is left for them to enjoy. fujimura is slowly but surely dying inside however if mashu can lessen the weight of the responsibility, it can be just the fujimura bloodlines oath/ legacy to save the world... fujimura and mashu kids to take the mantle/ responsibly
What you didn't mention is that dangers for Fujimaru lie beyond just mages. Let's not forget the amount of times Fujimaru gets targeted/kidnapped (even in dreams) by various abominations, servants, foreigners from beyond universe etc., that took some interest or issue with him. From demon pillars seeking revenge for Goetia (albeit those seem to be dealt with, but some other contender may take issue with their actions) defeat to various entities that become fixated with him for one reason or another. Now Fujimaru rocked the boat and dealt with such creatures enough time that he got noticed by various powerful entities, and they know about him. He may be further targeted after he leaves. If I were this guy, while I would want to return home, I would be seriously worried if all those instances where I'm getting targeted, even within my dreams, will cease, and mind you, the only line of defense against such situations for him are servants from Chaldea (like Dante). So even if Mages in general stay ignorant about him, other even more powerful beings already know about him.
Don’t forget that in the prologue of part 2 there was a real threat of Ritsuka being sealed away
MC saved the world multiple times...basically Guaranteed to be one of the very rare few Modern times "Heroes" actually worthy of the Throne records.
Somebody posited that Fujimaru would be forced to continue protecting humanity by becoming a servant while Mash gets to live the life she was never able to
That would be an ironic ending honestly. Going back to part 1 it was Fujimaru and Romani making future plans about what they would do after the adventure while Mash was satisfied with the adventure itself. Meanwhile.....
You know the flashing people thingy at some point in Men in Black movie? Yeah, it might be a bless for them.
They might sometimes hear voices and think it was a ghost or they are losing their mind, but it actually some Servants visiting them from time to time.
Perhaps they could become a big shot in the mage's world and appear as a reference in FGO 2? Who knows!
Or Fujimura is the alien god. One of those supervise and lead chaldea. That kinda of explains why he appeared out of nowhere
I’ve got two ideas: either we go to space and take on the Servant Verse; or we die, get engraved in the throne of heroes and come back as the Grand Avenger. I’d prefer the second option and think about it: we’ve more than fulfilled the requirements for being a hero, we’ve had the first avenger living rent free in our head fighting our trauma and we’ve “avenged” the WORLD and ALL OF HUMANITY twice over.
If that doesn’t qualify us as a grand servant, I don’t know what would. Plus, getting ourselves as a servant as a reward at the end and then taking the mantle of a new protagonist would be pretty cool.
dantes did say that if fujimaru became an avenger then he and avenger-maru could straight march against the alien god, brawl, and then was confident they'd win
I will repeat a comment here that I made in October 2024 in the Chaldea Gurus Discord server:
Having watched BB Dubai's motivation explanation [that was in Ordeal Call 3] really strengths my believe that FGO's concept of "taking back our future" is meant to be delivered in two packages
Part 1 was about the will to live. Nasu's classical beauty in the (futile) struggle. In the end it was Fujimaru's will/wish to not die that made Goetia learn the same, that concluded the fight against the incineration of mankind.
Part 2 might be about passing with dignity. Letting go and entrusting the future (and the memory of the past [which is why the pruning is to be opposed; why Fujimaru's compassion for the LBs is so important]) to another generation. There is a reason why "taking back our future" is a collective, and not an individual task. One cannot go on forever, but the next in line will continue to walk a path towards a future.
This why I too believe that Fujimaru' and Mashu's story will be over with the end of part 2. Chaldea as concept though is something that will not be tossed away. It has been confirmed in an interview by Takeuchi that there is content for a year 11. But it was also hinted that part 2's end will change everything and it (or at least the beginning of it) will be coming in year 10. Which is why I believe there will be new protagonist for post Part 2 content (and that will also be the time Nasu is not writing an overall FGO plot anymore).
Doubt it, they would have to rework the entire bond lines of over 300 servants and there's also the people that get really mad about NTR so if any of the servants show a romantic interest in the new protag people will go crazy
For me, I figure a fitting end would be something triggered by a question I have long had, why is it the "Throne" of heroes? Why not the testament, or the land, or the library, or something? Most the servants are not rulers, and thus it is rare for them to have thrones, and thrones are generally something you associate with a gathering of people or knowledge. So my thought was that it may actually be an empty throne, one awaiting a particular master. So essentially, Fugimaru has been tested all this time to take that throne, proving him/herself to be able to bond with servants of all types, good, evil, chaotic, ordered, etc. Our ultimate end may be that the throne calls us to it. Mash would likely join us, and we could use our new power to protect those others from Chaldea. It is a continued fight but a fitting one I think. If you want to do it as a story part you could have the previous owner of the throne call on you and you have to do the final proof of worth to take over.
Is called the Throne of Heroes because they are the peerless ones, representing mankind's pinnacles, and important enough to be removed from the reincarnation cycle and becoming eternal
Some were kings true, but is refered more on the sense that they represent the best (and sometimes the worst) of mankind, standing far above of a normal human
Honestly, with everything they experienced how can they even go back to a normal life? They witnessed more things and experiences than most people, encountered Gods, Foreign Entities, and most recently ORT. Whether they like it or not, they’re deep in this, too deep that any sense of normalcy is near unobtainable.
5:33 “and then he dies” 😂😂 dude I can’t, it’s so monotone it makes me laugh 😆
Maybe they protect guda by giving all the credit to kadoc .and just say he was use as a mana battery or a back up for him
It would be the only way gudao walks away alive lol
That would just put target on Kadoc's back if mages start digging (which is why they tried to downplay Fujimaru involvement in singularities in the first place).
That would not be fair to Kadoc and Ritsuka wouldn't accept it not because he likes credit but because he wouldn't want Kadoc to be blamed. He only accepted Romani taking credit because Romani was already gone.
If i'm fujimaru im getting Abigail Williams to come back and take me on a multiversal adventure. Or i'm following one of the living servants back to their worlds top picks being Erice to the requiem world or Gray to the case files world. Another option is getting hakuno to take me to Seraph because she offered. And finally just heading to the servantverse possibly.
My concerns for Fujimaru are due to how ungrateful the Mage's Association was towards them after the Incineration of the Human Order Incident and how Da Vinci and Holmes had to keep falsifying records to protect them when the inspections and interrogations happened and now things are even more screwed up after the Earth's bleaching on top of the missing year from the IotHOI with BOTH incidents directly involving the Chaldea Security Organization and Ritsuka Fujimaru.
I know that Goredolf said that they wouldn't have to worry about a Sealing Designation due to his own influence within the Clock Tower, but that feels like a flag for the opposite to me, especially since the Ordeal Calls had the correction over the number that have to be cleared were clearly a flag that the originally stated number is the amount that need to be cleared to complete Part 2.
Nasu also stated that Part 2 would have a "bittersweet" ending some time ago, IIRC which also makes me feel that way since he seems to prefer writing those kinds of endings.
Theory:
"They ends up at The Other Side of the World in the end."
my best case scenario after the whole saga. Fujimaru and Mashu will live on an isolated island with the whole Chaldea staff and servants where they will have to protect the Sheba and Chaldea system.
or Fujimaru will become the new Director of Chaldea to at least have a fighting ground against the mages association
Uses the buckets of grails they’ve got to reincarnate their favourite servant and freaking retire. I’m accepting nothing less for someone that’s lived through absolute hell and struggled against near impossible odds.
If we ever get a Beast of Humanity Ritsuka or Gudako and seeing Mash be an Alter because they just had enough of everyones bs. That might be interesting. On the other it will also be interesting if we saw an Alternative end to Heaven's Feel as a Singularity like Sakura winning or Sakura alone not being corrupted but also some of the other cast Rin or Shirou Medusa as an Example. And we could see Angra Mainyu as a Beast. Considering Fuyuki is Considered as a Speacial Anchor for Singularities. But that's just my opinion.
Honestly, I see a lot of fanart of Ritsuka with the Black Young Goat design, which is kinda Cannon. And it might be a plot twist of Ritsuka still having the power of that form. It's kinda ironic the perosn who has saved the human order is now against it.Plus, I think Gudako in that form is cute and hot at the same time.
Ah yes,it all circles back to baphomet 😂@@doicare6822
If he died, he would be summon by Counter force as Grand Master, taking commands of grand servants.
Imagine if we have playable Guda
Maybe he did something like Hakudo summoning Mashu(Extra), Jalter+Eresh(Buster), Melt+Kama(Quick), Castoria(Art). His final Ascension will be all 7 grands
Novum Chaldea are basically criminals for overthrowing the human order. Ritsuka will receive a seal designation for controlling multiple shadow servants, a feat no ordinary mages can do especially someone of his caliber. Ritsuka will be in hiding all his life.
That's if he gets to escape or even get into human order at all. Alaya is a bitch and I know damn well it's always looking for a cg or grand to overwork unpaid
00:46 - They are adults already, it passed almost 10 years of journey.
Yes, they celebrate summer, christmas, new year with us, this is proved by Da Vinci talking abou new year commemoration in the final chapter of Tunguska even the time in the world has "stopped".
Decent ideas. I think, practically speaking, we're getting a part 3 and maybe 3.5 after 2.5 ends.
For the "true"ending i would like to headcanon the following:
Goredolf stays on as head of chaldea, transforming it into a more legit/recognized part of the mage world/clocktower.
Da vinci (lily) stays on as technical advisor since she is technically a homunculus and not a servant if i remember correctly.
I like the idea of Fujimaru being incompatible with the "normal"world and becoming a wanderer Musashi style.
Mash would wander together with Fujimaru, not because she doesn't want to live in the normal world but becasue she can't imagine a live without Fujimaru and it's her choice to go with him.
Maybe we see a picure of them with a child or children (theris or adopted) in the future becoming a wandering family.
This would allow for both Fujimaru (male or female) and Mash to cameo in the future while also keeping room for some smaller future stories involving them and Gordolf and the new Novum Chaldea.
12:11 what... so like Zelretch?... that would have to include Fujimaru somehow reaching the Root and adquiring somwthing similar to the Second Magic.... which would be pretty cool...
The forgotten number 4
Theres also some theories that Fujimaru always wanted to open a Bakery one day.
I see two possibilities for the MC: either they become a) a Beast of Humanity, a new enemy for the next MC to face or b) they become a part of Alaya, essentially a biological representation of the Throne of Heroes, sacrificing their own Humanity to preserve the Heroic Spirits and PHH.
Sealing designation probably would be a result of learning about them in order to keep their unique characteristics just like Touko aozaki they even have a mage rank what I’m not sure that or fairy hunting
Ritsuka will be similar to Luka on Monster Girl Quest Paradox Chaos ending , where he will be a God of Chaos and rayshift to every possible world to fix all the messed ups he had done in the first place
There is multiple endings?!?! I've only played through part 1 of paradox.
@ yes part 3 has for now 3 endings : 2 of the 3 are pick you poison if you had played LOC and fought 2 superb bosses you know why and the chaos route is the 3rd ending you must finish both the other 2 before going for this
@@andreasnicolasbritoserafim2949 Well now I kinda wanna replay the original MGQ games AND play the paradox games.
I like this ending. Going back to save them all
He goes to bath and find out singularity here. The bathroom singularity. Okeanos 2.
Since Servant's power often related to their feat. If Fujimaru become one they'll be either a Savior class or a Grand "Grand" Class. Cause his feat as of now is Defeating all 7 the beast of humanity (except V) and extra beasts that manifest. Not to mention defeating an Ultimate One despite it's weaker form.
They're gonna be the ultimate Alaya's trump card if push comes to shove cause he embodies Humanity.
I believe if Ritsuka want to retire they unable to go back to their normal life due to the amount of PTSD, and Guilt they must endure.
Not to mention they will be huntdown by Mage Association thinking them as a test subject to reach The root.
The only thing that maybe a possible end for Ritsuka they became a Servant or becoming a Beast.
Damn after listening to this. Makes ne cry 😭 and reasonable...you sir made an emotional aspect
From the Master of Chaldea to Mcdonalds employee 💔
To be fair I would consider it an improvement all risk considered and stress. However financially Fujimaru is likely very secured considering Vinci transferred supposedly very large amount of money after Part 1.
Nah Fujimaru gonna wound up getting a bakery (If that Mahoyo collab is from what I remember what our dear master of chaldea wants in life)
Theory for fujimaru after chaldeas : maybe after everything is over fukimaru go back home feel the sin of the action erasing lostbelt then will go back to chaldea to bring back all lostbelt he erased.
@fadhilriezthia7921 reminder if he does that his family him and even mash might die in the process or even getting erased
Ritsuka Fujimaru is the best gacha protagonist, he/she inspire me and same time scare me. He/She truly is good and evil.
I have always guessed that in the end both Mash and Ritsuka will stay together and either run Chaldea as Directors while Goredorf remains as the "Owner" or will use magic to distort Chaldea out of general reality while Mash and Ritsuka sightsee across the globe with servant backup. It just feels like after everything they've gone through they deserve at very least an optimistic ending.
I can't see Mash leaving Ritsuka either since he was a major part of her becoming "human" and Mash has been Ritsuka's anchor to humanity since the Lostbelts started. He could easily snap without Mash being there to bring him back from the proverbial ledge.
Plus I just like the image of a 40 something Ritsuka and Mash running Chaldea with their 3 kids running about the place; servants inhabiting the base and the Clock Tower/Association just avoiding ticking them off since they'd effectively have the power to wipe them out with 200+ servants. Then a mysterious servant is summoned and its Mash Alter having summoned herself from another reality looking to save her Ritsuka.
Now i remember... Tsukihime dlc fighting game, MASH is in the roster
I think there's still more to say. There's one last hoorah for him i know there is. I definitely think fgo will go on just like it's always done with him still as the mc
They go to live with Abigail and her uncle
Honestly I can see Nasu making Part 3 but this would be the actual finale that somehow involves Alternate Futures, since Singularities were set in the Past and LostBelts technically were in the same modern time even with their divergent points, where at the end Fujimaru saves the world one final time before going on a new journey of their own, while we players would move forward with FGO II.
If the threat of singularities continue, I imagine Chaldea or whats left of it will just either continue working to fix those or rebrand themselves with a new name to do it. After all even during the bleach earth we still get random singularities here and there that we need to deal with, I imagine those will continue. So Fujimaru could become a permament member of Chaldea, or maybe retire and become an aprentice to another mage for protection, and I see no reason he cant be with Mash, Shirou ends with saber and Rin in one ending of the fate stay night visual novel, you call it bland and cliche but I prefer a happy ending over a sad one any day of the week.
no matter how much I try I just can't imagine Ritsuka outside of the story or in a happy ending it just doesnt make sense
Odds are good its going to be open ended like the end of Arc 1, just in case they decide they want to continue. Which means the story ends however you want it to end. For example, Ptolemaios raises a good point that, after everything we went through, a mundane life would probably be torture. Maybe we will follow his Valentines advice and seek out the Library of Alexandria. Maybe Chaldea realizes that, after two end of the world scenarios, they probably shouldn't shut down. And then Ritsuka gets a full time job, dealing with the singularities that inevitably continue to pop up like clockwork.
I really wish people would see that Fujimaru is way more than just a self insert cardboard...
I have this «prolog to the end» idea. Where the cast of chaldea goes to a singulerity or lostbelt where nothing whent wrong inn the prolog chapter. Just imagein the whiplash everybody woude fell too see the dead alive agean among other things. (I know, my speling is crap)
U might really should consider to ready ordenal call 2 since there are some strong hints. Not only the real state of mind from fujimaru 🤔
Imagine Fujimaru's story ends on the 13th anniversary ( if it reaches there) and ends on a very depressing note ( maybe similar like Kiritsugu's tragedy?)
in Hakuno case (i will use her becase all the extra/extela games ia was playng with femel hakuno) she is put as the operator of the wepans to pretect seraph and to be frank a normal day in seraph include: Saber creating a new statue of herself, geting in an argument with caster for said statue, escalating in a civil war wild bb is eating half of the moon agane, Archimedes trying to distroi humanity agane, and you have The Master Of The Moon, wich is Hakuno trying and somehow maneging all that resorving everithing by the end of the day.
Did I miss something?
Elizabeth planning a concert that poses a threat to the surroundings. Altera larvae picking up curse worlds from Caster's and Sabers arguments. Another terrorist attack by the Tamamo 9. ...
Depending on timeline, BB making another incident alongside her children
Sounds like a happily-ever-after to me, if a rather eventful one at that.
Just make Ritsuka Fujimaru be the 3rd president of Chaldea, the 英霊王 Eireiou (The King of Heroic Spirits), and maybe the Gojo Satoru of the Fate Universe. I think *WE* the players deserve that at least.
I don't think they're teens anymore
My first thought was that Fugimaru and Mash would end up going to the Servantverse to continue the story as a part 3.
I haven’t finished LB7 yet, and I’m NA only, so I definitely don’t know much about Ordeal Call, and that’s intentional on my end. But I like to imagine that in the end, Fujimaru’s story will come to an end, one way or another, and Mash will then take on the “role” as Senpai herself for a whole new person or persons. Thus the “Fate” cycle continues.
Fujimaru is like the best summoning relic in the history of alaya
While going on to live a normal life on her own would make a narratively fitting conclusion to Mash's character arc, I really just can't see her ever choosing to let Ritsuka deal with things alone. And somehow being *forcefully* separated instead...it would feel too much like the HF normal ending.
I have a feeling fujimaru will die at the end of the story and be added to the throne of heroes.
Well.. I have even worse idea)
All of cast with mash found out by association.. but due to connections of Sion they are able to negotiate a reasonable agreement.
But then some of policies department mages decide that goredolf can be too powerful and organize a secret assault on him, killing all the staff..and mash. They Fijimaru returns to a devastated by fire place and goes completely mad, creating crisis for the mage world all by himself by calling to the support of the staff, who all turn into a heroic spirits themselves by merit of being final humanity protectors. And so next project is an aftermath of Chaldea's existence. And the reason, why Goethia actually manifested on phh side - as the one and only who can clear mistakes left by the Solomon himself..
End of Caldea. Mash and Fujimaru get married (not mattering what gender Fujimaru is), they get a good job at working with the clock tower together, becoming a teacher. Also, they either adopt a kid later in their life (female Fujimaru) or make a child with mash (male Fujimaru).
Not sure what they could possibly teach at the Clocktower. Ritsuka and Mash know next to nothing about how magecraft actually works, and you can't exactly teach a class on Harem Protagonist EX.
Fujimaru ultimately going to the Servantverse seems to me as potentially the most likely answer. While the events are technically non canon, they also do happen. Quite frankly, I can't help but shake the feeling that the events, as silly and nonsensical as they are, reveal some sort of truth about the Last Master - if that makes sense. By doing what he's done, Ritsuka has kind of separated himself from normalcy. A person who has summoned heroes, gods and monsters, faced eldritch monstrosities, traveled through space and time, and by all intents and purposes partook in and was a main agent in not one but a number of Pruning Phenomenon... That person cannot go back to being normal. By his very actions, I feel that Ritsuka has, ironically, Pruned himself from normalcy. He is still part of the Foundation of Humanity and a keeper of it, but he must remain, for the most part, out of it.
Independently, Ritsuka is certainly getting inscribed into the Throne. I've seen some people saying he could potentially become a Savior Class. Of course, the most common are Grand Ruler, Grand Avenger and a Beast.
I thought some events are technically cannon due to the temple of Solomon including servants from said events or being apart of the main interludes like CCC and Christmas in the underworld.
Other way around; events are technically all canon, even if the point in time they happen in can get fuzzy. The servantverse is 100% confirmed to be a thing by the fact that X showed up to help in the fight against Solomon, and in the latest Lostbelt the events at Enma-tei got confirmed too.
I hope we can get an ending where all singularities and lostbelts(yes, even the fairy one) can be saved
Something people arent considering are a couple very important details so be aware IM going to spoil certain things.
.

Theres 4 things that we need to take note of regarding FGO and its main story line.
-Its mentioned in Lostbelt 7 in the start that Mash is border line close to reaching her "peak" and may turn into a Ghost Liner. A Ghost Liner as far as Im aware is another name for a servant. But meanings are meant to be expanded upon so its something to consider.
-The Avenger Ordeal Call took the most out of Fujimaru, and we by that Ordeal Call's story, Fujimaru has the potential to become one of, if not thee strongest Avengers should they give in. He doesn't but the potential is there. We love the Avengers (for the time being as the current translations imply they can come back should Chaldea become more suitable for them to coexist without their Spirit Origins eroding.)
-There is one MAJOR thing people are over looking with the Ordeal Calls. They are trials by fire to force us to understanding the Extra Classes we utilized such as Alter Ego and Foreigner. It has been confirmed that there wont be a Pretender Ordeal Call, but they never mentioned anything againt A SHIELDER ORDEAL CALL. We got a surprise one for Moon Cancer.
Mash's existence is already considered as a sin because she's a cross between being a human AND servant. GALAHAD ALSO REFUSED to particiapte in the Lostbelts, only having us being able to fully access OG Mash in Lostbelt 6 due to extenuating circumstances. He has not had a proper voice in the entire span of FGO. The Shielder Ordeal Call can and will happen. Characters like Leonidas actually fit the bill for it. Achilles does as well.
-Lastly, to address the idiots who are claiming EOS. The game makes too much money, the game wont die until Nasu himself along with Sony decide to take it out back like Old Yeller. And FGO has been an active way for Nasu to REIMPLENENT older concepts he's had brewing for a long time like ORT and The Ultimate Ones. Notes wasnt touched until FGO.
Its far to valuable of an asset to to get rid of, not to mention, the attachment people have to the game and Fujimaru as a whole. If they used a new character, theyd have major shoes to fill. Its impractical to replace them.
We will get a 3rd Arc in the story. Its inevitable.
I have a lot of thing to say about this video but since the future stories are tied closely with Fate/Extra, I won't say anything (cuz I also didn't play it 😂) tho I already have a rough idea what he became in the future (sauce OC2)
I remember seeing a story like that though the worlds Fujimaru visits were other series like kenja no mago.
I liked what you proposed but here is more. When Fujimaru dies because of what he did and the bonds with the servants. Do you remember the ending of Titanic? That but instead of the titanic it's the throne of heroes.
FGO part 3 the quest for Fujimaru.
they gonna die, in a beautiful end...
and they would be summonable in the next game:
Male MC as Ruler
Female MC as Beast (the good one)
Even if no one coming after them. There no way they gonna have their normal life back. Can’t look at the world at same. Ever
our MC doesn't get to retire with their harem of waifu Servants after that last mission is over?
Kischur Zelretch Schweinorg might step in and help Fujimaru
They die. That is how their journey ends.
HEROIC SPIRIT FUJIMARU YEAAH
One thing I don't see happening is a comfirmed ship at the end. I feel as though there are too many servants who are hinted at potentially having romantic interests in the MC for a single one to be comfirmed.
It wouldn't be fair to Mash if it wasn't her, but it also wouldn't be fair to the rest of the servants who have romantic interest in the MC if she was the comfirmed ship and it wouldn't be fair to the players who have gotten attached to another servant more.
I dunno, as the story goes on it feels to me like they've been slowly forgetting to even *pretend* Mash and Ritsuka aren't already a couple.
@@ChaosDraguss I mean in LB6 they literally ship Fujimaru with Castoria
@ I went into that chapter fully expecting that to be the case after 2 years of JP players hyping it up. But honestly, the story didn't really push it that much and the reunions with Mash were played much more emotionally than the little romantic tension Castoria got. The story only really pushes alternate "main heroines" when Mash is stuck back at Chaldea, like in Shinjuku and SERAPH.
@@ChaosDraguss indeed in OC3 Mash literally watch Ritsuka and Archetype Earth having a date
@ I don't know much about that one since I can't read moonrunes. But that's the one that doubles as last year's summer event, right? If so, that's pretty standard; summer events always have little shipping scenes with several different characters, it's part of their whole shtick.
If the mission ends, the story will end, and the game server will end too
Think chaldea never stopping since they wont risk another incident
The mages’ association is so goddamn evil in this world that if a massive genocide happens to them, no one would bat an eye. Just leave Waver and Rin alive, man.
They're more amoral than anything, and they have their place. It's usually their enforcers that hunt down rogue mages which, while decidedly for the non-altruistic purpose of maintaining the secrecy of magecraft, does end up keeping people safe from crazy bastards more often than not.
What if he becomes the new professor or a teacher for other masters?

Just a reminder that a certain count mentioned that if Fujimaru wanted to be an avenger NOTHING could deny him the right, stating that he would be "The most Avenger of all Avengers" at that time fujimaru had gotten less than a week of a normal life. That boy is holding on by a thread.
Brother you are very fluent in your theories, but damn son, you lack knowledge about the overall nasuverse, and shit alot of you say goes totally out when LB7 ends , not even starting ordeal calls.

Beast Vii Ritsuka Fujimaru.
Look, given what I've seen of the story thus far, I feel like a perfectly happy ending at the end is unrealistic. Several parts of the story put a heavy emphasis on sacrifice for the benefit of the world, so Fujimaru's death at the end would be thematic to the story. Meanwhile, I can see Goredolf returning home at the end of the day, perhaps even offering Mash room and board to get her life off the ground, though that may be a bit too optimistic. Mash is a human being, technically, but as a creation of a mage, she's also Chaldea property; it's debatable if she would even be allowed to leave Chaldea if she wanted to once things end.
The Chaldean staff could probably leave, but people are quick to forget the fact that the Singularity incident ended with the Mage's Association wanted to discipline the staff for rule-breaking, which might've resulted in arrest and imprisonment. And once humanity is restored, there's no guarantee they'll remember that humanity was erased at all. So there's a decent chance they'll be punished first, possibly by being arrested and imprisoned for a while. Though, I can see Goredolf escaping that fate via his family, which he will probably have to contend with after the fact.
And none of that is getting into how well the rest of Chaldea's staff is doing, mentally. This journey has been hard on them, too. So who knows if they can ever properly integrate into society again. Maybe Goredolf will start a new venture and hire them himself...assuming his mother and father don't disown him.
Realism isn't Nasu's thing, and his protagonists usually *eventually* get a happy ending.
