    Actually the thing about "why we dont see more versions of Heracles" is actually true! There was an interview with Nasu and Narita about Fate/Strange Fake and Narita says he had to nerf Heracles into Alcides because he doesnt believe he can write how overwhelming Heracles is and in the story proper Enkidu refers to Alcides (whom is weaker than the archer heracles he got corrupted from) as an Equal to Gilgamesh and this is shown when they have a straight up draw twice despite Gilgamesh using all his tools bar EA itself, he even conjured storms with a noble phantasm we've never seen before, thats how seriously he was fighting!
    Heracles is called things like "strongest hero", "flawless champion", "hero of heroes" and even "god of heroes" at multiple instances and is implied to be the strongest hero in human history. Recently we even found out he owns a sword more powerful than Excalibur in terms of sheer raw power output!
    Heracles is an absolute utter monster when he has his sanity and thus intelligence, fighting skill and tools.

      In fate raute, Nasu actualy dirrectly calls him "the strongest heroic spirit, whom only few can rival".
      Archer(who allready went through that hgw in his o.g. timeline) said, that he can 1v7 every other stay night servant and win.
      Erice in the requiem event called him " the strongest warrior in human history".
      Hans compared him to Cu Alter.
      The man is basted, people often look down on him, cause they don't know the whole context of his fights with Salter and Gil.

      After the death of Heracles, the sword went with his descendants to Roman, and later on to Briton
      before Arthur's age, the sword belong to king Reince of North Wales, strongest of 11 rebel kings, he defeated by Sir Balin and yielded the sword to Arthur. This is where the "Arthur favor this sword and gave Excalibur to Gawain" happened

    If i am remembering this correctly, Heracles was summoned using a rock from one of his ruined temples. After being summoned, he shaped that rock into that mace-axe thing that he wields in battle.
    Also, Alcides (Avenger Heracles) for some reason has a Noble Phantasm named 'Reincarnation Pandora' that steals other Servant's Noble Phantasm for his own use and renders them useless for the original user.

    • @kylepessell1350
      @kylepessell1350 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +22

      That's probably because Heracles, as mentioned in the video, has a bit of a reputation for stealing treasures during his twelve labors. This would make Reincarnation Pandora yet another NP based on his myth similar to Nine Lives and God Hand. His versatility as a warrior also means he can be deadly with anything from his bare hands, a stick of wood, and a chunk of stone to legendary weapons which can be wielded by no other which means even something like Excalibur could be tamed by Heracles.

  • @darthkai3621
    @darthkai3621 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +33

    I dunno. I feel there should be more for Heracles. The whole “berserkers can only grunt” has been forgotten for a long time now, with only Eric, Lancelot, Lu Bu, and Fran(majority of the time) being the examples. Literally every other berserker can talk normally. Not to mention it’s strange that Berserker Heracles doesn’t get all his weapons yet Raikou and Lu Bu do.

  • @duelist4512
    @duelist4512 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +50

    Well a few things:
    Heracles is the Greek Version of the character, if they meant for him to be Roman or a mix between the 2, he'd have the Roman tag.
    Berserker is honestly one of Heracles' weaker classes, Archer being his strongest.
    The Heracles Alter we get in Strange Fake, Alcides, is rather interesting. First off, they used his less known Mortal Name Alcides before it was changed to apease Hera. This version of him actually scorns both God and Man alike and wears a shawl to sheild himself from the ugliness of the world. Since he scorned the Gods in the version, he lost Access to the 12 Labours Phantasm every other Version would have, instead he gains 12 unique Phantasms, each representing one of the 12 labours. I'm not sure what they are and all of them haven't been shown but it would be the first time we'd see him use any of these.

      More than losing access to it, Alcides purposefully discards everything that linked him to his divine half, including God Hand. So the container is forced to make a new Twelve Labors Noble Phantasm just to fill the gap he himself threw away.

    ironically Heracles was also strict with his morals, in the Argonautica he would reprimand Jason quite a few times, especially when they waste weeks on the isle of women, this was also a factor in Heracles leaving the Argonauts, that and his lover being killed, i think in the Aeneid he is also mentioned a few times but by that time he no longer walked the earth of course
    in Fate Heracles actually seems to use his bow much more often, during his labor with the Stymphalian Birds it's implied or maybe even straight up said that he shot them down whereas in the original myth he asks Hephaestus to make some bronze clamps (the instrument) for him which he then uses to scare away the birds, we also actually get to see Nine Lives being used with a bow in the finale of Prisma Illya 2wei (2wei Herz finale in the anime)
    in Strange Fake it is also explained that even outside of the Berserker class, Heracles doesn't really have access to all the tools of his labors and only really gets God Hand and Nine Lives (the latter he doesn't even have as a Berserker) as his noble phantasms, however when he looses his divinity and assumes his human form with his birth name Alcides he actually gets access to 12 nps in exchange for loosing God Hand, the Nemean Lion skin is explained to be a sort of symbol of nature or wildness and thus rejects all manmade things, the only weapons or attacks that can penetrate it would have to be made by the planet itself or maybe a divine spirit
    both in Lostbelt 2 and Prisma Illya 3rei it is also very clearly shown that Heracles definitely retained a strong bond with Illya regardless of the timeline, it became engraved in his spirit origin, though maybe it only pops up when he manifests as a Berserker, we don't know yet, i think his bond ce in fgo fits very well because of this, it's a unique quality to his character that only exists within the Nasuverse and very much deserved it's own sort of recognition
    there's also some interesting insight into how Heracles sees the world in the fgo Turas Realta manga, there we not only get flashbacks to when Jason met him but also how Berserker Heracles chooses his priorities

So for me, Heracles saving Illya there was not just simply fulfill his duty as a protector, but as a father as well, since he couldn't protect his family before. Maybe Illya is the connection to what's left of his humanity in that madness-driven mind.

    I subscribe to Illya and Berserker's bond as more Illya wanting a protector figure like the father she lost and Hercules having a chance to take care of a surrogate child like he was denied in his myth. I really do wish more bond CEs functioned like his, most of the others are such minor buffs and terrible states just just sad. Even if we could just buff theirs stats a lot more would be usable. so fun fact the sword that Hercules and ONLY Hercules could wield in myth Marmyadose is also wielded by King Arthur who was told by Merlin it just wasn't worth using because they couldn't draw out even a fraction of its full strength which would be stronger than Excalibur BUT that is the sword staff that Castoria wields in her final ascension so who knows about fairy Arthur being able to draw out that strength lol.

    Heracles is one of those heroes impossible to misrepresent, even the silliest depictions of him do get at least something right. You cannot go wrong with big muscle himbo monster slayer, although I like that Fate gets closer to the tragic side of the character as well, since Heracles is one damn unlucky guy who spent all his life trying to amend his sins.

    On the topic of the nemaen lion, he does have it in his archer from, but ti's unrelated to his invulnerability in Fate. That version is more like an extra boon given to him from completing his tweleve labors that is a side effect of the god hand. It negates all attacks lower then B rank
    The actual pelt negates all damage from attacks made from manmade weapons. Essentially it's the servants invulnerability to modern weapons taken up to all of history.

    At this point I think FGO would add Caster Heracles Lily with his lyre or something lol.
    While I wanted Archer Heracles, overtime I became more interested in a Saber Heracles with Marmyadose because the sword only exists in Arthurian Legends but was described as comparable to Excalibur by Arthur in them. Also Nagakura Shinpachi has a strangely out of place voice line for Berserker Heracles where he says Herc must not just be strong but also "helluva swordsman."
    Now a Lancer Heracles? This could be unique as in one story, Heracles used a shield forged by Hephaestus and a spear to kill a guy named Cycnus. But considering Nasu loves syncretism a little too much, to the point where it starts getting fanfictiony ridiculous to me, there's a chance that Lancer Heracles could be based off the Buddhist aspect of Heracles. When Buddhism made its way to Greece, Heracles was synchronized with a figure named Vajrapani, the bodyguard of The Buddha. And Vajrapani-Heracles is depicted as wielding a diamond club or thunderbolt.

    occasions in fate/stay night when he spoke briefly which shows that he’s not incapable of it and most of his expressions and mannerisms portrays what hes trying to get across.
    So It would be nice if fgo gave him his pupils back and some more dynamic poses to convey what he’s trying to say; maybe give of at least one line where he actually says something by bond 10-10+.

    My main issue with Hercules they keep teasing the idea a stronger version of him they even say Berserker is one of his weaker classes and his Archer and saber are vastly superior to him in every way In fairness strange fake is power craps a lot having the ability of God had his Hydra arrows inability to summon all of the mythical creatures used to feed it and Castor Arthur final extension is wielding the sword his sword saving it to be a weapon physically Superior than Excalibur but we have a single picture of him having it I think Hercules showed up too soon 3 or 5 years later we would have seen the man who can rival Grand servants with nothing more than Talent then his own

    It is very sad how much "other spins" Heracles receives in Fate. Not even another Berserker depictions/stories, but also in the other classes. I would LOVE to see him as a Saber, for example, or as an "not corrupt Archer".
    And also I wish his BF Iolaus was made into a Servant (and be kept as a male)

      A lot of things can be wonky for heracles. For example, there’s this hymn about Heracles.
      Hear, powerful, Herakles untamed and strong, to whom vast hands and mighty works belong, Almighty Titan, prudent and benign, of various forms, eternal and divine, Father of Time, the theme of general praise, ineffable, adored in various ways. Magnanimous in divination skilled and in the athletic labours of the field. ‘Tis yours, strong archer, all things to devour, supreme, all-helping, all-producing power;
      To you mankind as their deliverer pray, whose arm can chase the savage tribes away: Unwearied, earth’s best blossom, offspring fair, to whom calm peace, and peaceful works are dear. Self-born, with primogenial fires, you shine, and various names and strength of heart are yours. Your mighty head supports the morning light and bears untamed, the silent gloomy night; From east to west imbued with strength divine, twelve glorious labours to absolve were yours; Supremely skilled, you reign in heaven’s abodes, yourself a God amidst the immortal Gods.
      With arms unshaken, infinite, divine, come, blessed power, and to our rites incline; The mitigations of disease convey and drive disastrous maladies away. Come, shake the branch with your almighty arm, dismiss your darts and noxious fate disarm.
      Unless I’m reading it wrong, that would mean that he could predict the future, control time, heal people,shapeshift, reject bad fate, and possibly have pyrokinesis and he was physically the strongest god among all the gods of Olympus
