Behind The Servants: Tamamo no Mae

[@straymerodach4713]

mixed up your 3 great Yokai with your 3 great Disasters. 3rd Yokai is Ootakemaru from Suzuka`s backstory 3rd Disaster is Sutoku

[@klidge]

Gotcha! That’s my bad. Thank you for letting me know!

[@frailgrail7452]

SPOILERS FOR TUNGUSKA: The Vitch we know isn’t actually part of the Tamamo nine, she’s the manifestation of the Tunguska event and she’s using Tamamo’s appearance. The actual Tamamo nine are comprised of Mae, Cat, Vitch, Gucci, Delmo, Hime, Aria, and two unknown ones. I hope we find out about them in the future.

[@grandpagohan1]

Her boulder split completely in half recently. I dont believe in the supernatural but when a boulder that kills anyone it touches and supposedly houses an evil spirit fucking splits in HALF (and I believe it was in 2020), THAT SHIT FUCKING SCARES ME.

Tamamo no Mae according to TV Tropes: A complete monster Elizabeth Bathroy according to history: A complete monster Both according to Fate: waifus

[@abs305]

which elizabeth bathory tho hmmm

[@Fronswath]

I'm a simple man I see Tami I like Thank you for spreading Fate's wonderful lore

[@Forgmin7764]

I think a video on Darius III and Iskandar would be nice. Despite Darius not offering much dialogue, he is apparently one of the more sane berserkers and Iskandar is just a massive bro.

[@klidge]

Iskander is a whole topic in and off himself but I can def put them on my doc!

[@desmondmalone438]

Nice we’re taking about her and also nice timing knowing a new event is about the Tamamos

[@yellowdeceiver4818]

spoilers for tam vitch's voice lines shes not an actual tail of tamamo quote from her voice line when talking to another tamamo Are you perhaps the famed Tamamo no Mae? Indeed, that's the original Divine Spirit I was copied from. But I'm nothing more than her shadow. I'm not one of the tails she cut off from herself. I guess the most intuitive way to put it would be... I am the Tamamo no Mae from another world. Think of me as the Tamamo no Mae who reincarnated in an isekai.

[@TaloneDrake]

Its stated in several places that Fate's Tamamo seemingly regrets her past actions. I wonder why that is. Was it just a fling of power in life, and in death she chooses to be helpful? Or is it a facade? Either seems just as likely at this point.

[@scaryface3695]

Interesting to see that someone else made the connection that a fox spirit of mischief with a sizeable record of deceiving those who fell in love with her and that she is incredibly attached to the master of chaldea, that whatever her intentions are cannot be good or should be kept at a fair distance.

[@TheIcyHunter]

I have learned something today. Tamamo is an absolute lass. That is all.

[@desmondmalone438]

9:44 we need more of the Tamamo 9 in FGO

[@MACZ2021]

Alright we definitely need a video on Lu But, Chen Gong and Red Hare. I think this would be pretty neat

[@klidge]

I’ll add them to the doc!

[@haruosh8]

Back to watch the vid again cause the sesshouseki that tamamo is sealed inside was found split in half.

[@trinity5502]

QSH is the best lostbelt king because of the punishment he gave out. She deserved it.

[@MoonlightReaper14]

You forget she's also a Vtuber now!

[@klidge]

Wait really?

[@MoonlightReaper14]

@@klidge during the reveal for the remakes of Fate Extra Tamamo was there being a vtuber. Which is so on brand for her. Also Tamamo Vitch is the Secretary side of Tamamo as explained Tamamo no Mae in Saber Wars 1 as for the other tamamo faces as it were.

[@TheInfinitymijinion]

Just wanna say that i really enjoyed all these behind the servants video, thanks for helping us taking a glimpse of these servant's irl inspiration

[@wraith5842]

i can relate to the part where a figure was lsot into the depths of the us postal services cause a friend once gave a bday present of a mash figure in her ortinax outfit then it never came its gone probably in the shadow realm

[@TheTimeMage]

I play fate extra and shes nostalgic to use here in fgo, Li shuwen also calls her Daji, also I think im having a terrible omen of arcade getting at least one exclusive tamamao nine... requesting Argonauts next (don't forget Medea XD ), or possibly Mata Hari

[@klidge]

I’ve got Mata Hari and the Argonauts on my doc! The Argo is going to be a big project so it may be a while

[@ragingwolf8968]

Watching this video now that the boulder that she was bound to has been split in half hits different lmao She's probably gonna be back on her bullshit at some point, I'm calling it now

[@legitcatalog7594]

... _glances at a certain Eastern European superpower..._ That unsettlingly matches the fox's modus operandi quite well. Up to and including the (rumored) failing health of the ruler in charge of said nation-state. Another factor is that this nation-state has major historical beef with Japan, including an active territorial dispute.

[@Vithor.G16]

Thanks for the awesome video! :3

[@dajaphrodite2781]

I hope to see Phantom of the Opera because how did he become a servant? And of course Mata Hari more love for her always

[@klidge]

I’ve got Mata Hari on my doc already but I can put Phantom on there!

[@papaaeon7210]

Have you thought about doing more on Type Moon original concepts, like the alien gods, Sefas, Type Moon and Type Mercury, Lahmu etc

[@klidge]

I plan on doing more of those concepts as time goes on but they aren’t on my immediate list. I’ll be sure to add them to the doc though!

[@papaaeon7210]

Heard some people saying on Twitter that the new Rider, Jiang Ziya, has some connection to Daiji or something like that

@@klidge So, in regards to Tamamo's pattern of "activities" in Asia... looking at events in Eastern Europe and a certain man who believes himself to be a modern king... and that man's declining health and increasing state-ordered brutality...

[@yambal8492]

Damn I'm really glad I asked for nobu a while back cuz it seems like a lot people request stuff now 😆

[@SilverGlenn69]

iirc, Tamamo really hates being called Daji and being compared to her, implying that they are not the same person, it came from the original game fate extra if I am correct.

[@namoma4922]

In fate verse,at the very least when she was incarnatingas tamamo she was genuinely trying to live a good life but was falsely accused if the emperor illness.Also she was trying to understand humanity

[@ShadowKnight153]

[@JudgeAlan501]

God we need more tamamo tails in FGO or other Fate

[@dragoon109]

Vitch is not one of tamamo tails. But 1 from another world.

[@klidge]

I ran into that in my research, but from what I was reading its still up in the air. She might just be rejecting the whole being a part of the OG Tamamo cause all of her tails hate her

[@boomboxzer0914]

And now it is definitive that she most certainly isnt a true Tamamo or one of her tails. She is a being born from the collective sadness and anguish born from the Tunguska event and her body is a copy of Tamamo Vitch' spirit origin. That's why her name is Tamamo Vitch Koyanskaya which is in respect to the body she has which is a copy of Tamamo Vitch and her name which is a bastardized form of her given name Yaskaya. Overall despite her hatred for humans and many other things she does have respect for certain things and individual actions. Like how both of her servant forms of Koyanskaya of Light and Koyanskaya of Darkness giving respect to the Japanese kami and granting themselves a divine name based off of theirs because of the vessel they inhabit being a demigod from Japan.

[@AnhTran-ki4io]

It wasn't the Zhou king that slayed Daji. The king gave the order but the one who executed it was Jiang Ziya, which is the new SSR rider. Given Shi Huangdi called Vitch Daji, things are not looking well forr her in Tunguska.

[@TheTenzen12]

Big Spoiler . . . . . . . . Koyanskaya isn't actually part of Tamamo 9. She is collective spirit of all animals that died during Tunguska event and took appearence after Tamamo due some commonalities. She herself call herself Tamamo 2.0.

[@charlestonho6733]

So are you going to make Taikobou video as he arch nemesis to Daji aka Tamamo

He will likely end up in a multi servant video but I will cover him in the future

Thank you for letting me know! That's my bad

Can you do gil I want to know about his myths

[@klidge]

Yep Epic of Gilgamesh is on my doc

[@josephwilliams9030]

Have to say, i never really cared for any of the tamamo character wise. I mean their designs are amazing and I can see why people would love their personalities, but they were just never for me. But the concept of tammao being one original powerful being that then split up to become multiple people has always and will always absolutely fascinate me. I mean it's just a really interesting concept that only kinda (not really) gets explored with bb. So the thought of multiple more tamamos out there always peaks my interest.
