Plot[edit | edit source]
« Through "Last Encore", I tried to make it something that feels different depending on whether you know the premise. |
(Kinoko Nasu) |
The structure of the Moon Holy Grail War is extremely different from that the original Fate/EXTRA. Chakravartin, Saver's Noble Phantasm, has been deployed, and it has overwritten the rules of the Holy Grail War. Time has constantly been progressing since the war started, with those from the preliminaries arriving even while others are fighting. As of Hakuno and Saber's arrival, nearly one thousand years has passed and the current year is 3020 A.D. Humanity has dwindled, and only one hundred thousand people remain alive on earth. Those in the Moon Cell are said to be the last of humanity.
Terms[edit | edit source]
- Dead Face - "The countenance of death. An extremely rare strengthening phenomenon that came to be after the completion of the Chakravartin."
- Chakravartin - The mysterious circle that appeared in the sky upon the beginning of the Grail War. It has replaced SE.RA.PH as the main administrator of the war.
- Floor Master - Floor Masters are special Masters chosen for each of the seven floors of SE.RA.PH after the advent of Chakravartin.
