Hey bro if you’re still confused about anything, I copied some stuff from a Youtube comment I saw and added some of my own edits: Anime omissions from the novel that were significant: 1. On how John survived: He basically got revived by Fake Caster’s NP Musketeer’s Masquerade which allows him to rewrite someone’s fate/give them buffs (someone please correct me/expand on this if needed) 2. Alcides did die to the hydra poison, but he activated one of his NP’s King’s Order which granted him access to temporary immortality 3. Richard gets faster the longer he fights, including his Excalibur blasts. 4. Gilgamesh used more shields, and Richard's blasts accelerated until it was a continuous beam. 5. Gilgamesh countered by tying his NPs together with the chain of heaven. Richard could dodge, but was forced to make one more Excalibur to protect Ayaka, hence the result. 6. Alcides VS Gilgamesh pretty much only had the end adapted. Alcides first used 9 lives with 3 arrows per shot, which ricocheted and homed in to shoot down all of Gil's NPs. Then, it escalated to Gil using elements in a pincer attack with Alcides using the full version of 9 lives that we saw. Gil actually still had the upper hand and would’ve won the fight, had a certain goddess not locked his Gate of Babylon away 7. Enter Ishtar, the goddess of fertility. According to the lore, she bears a deep grudge against Gil for rejecting her marriage proposal (mad petty I know) and so she sent the Bull of Heaven to murder him. Gil and Enkidu slay the bull together however, and so long story short, Ishtar casted a curse and made it so that if both Gil and Enkidu were to ever be summoned on the same plane together, an “echo” of her would be summoned too to enact her revenge. That’s why she’s possessing the Einzbern homunculus/using her as a vessel. 8. In case it wasn’t clear, remember in episode 0 the catalyst used to summon Gil was the key to his treasury. Gil has his own key which is why he scoffed at its existence and left it there, since even if someone picked it up, it would be useless unless you were Ishtar. She found the key and used it to lock away GOB. By all accounts she shouldn’t even be existing at this moment, so for once it wasn’t Gil’s arrogance that did him in, it was bad luck mixed with some carelessness. 9. The reason Gil looked shocked/horrified was cause he heard True Berserker's (the robot) scream. The anime kinda dropped the ball and sort of made it looked like he was shocked at Alcides’ arrows flying towards him. 10. Hopefully the anime covers this eventually so I won’t say too much, but Gil and Enkidu have traumatic memories associated with True Beserker as it is a being from their past, hence Gil’s fear in that moment. Ya’ll feel free to correct me if I missed anything as a lot of this was taken from some YouTube comments, combined with some info I had to look up after watching the episode.

Just to add on to what CJ said: - Ishtar is a an actual god/goddess and in most circumstances you cannot summon a god as a servant. The only exceptions are servants like Gilgamesh or Heracles who are demi-gods or someone like Enkidu was a creation made by the gods to counter Gilgamesh. - As far as we know Ishtar is not a servant in this holy grail war. She somehow came to this specific point in time and possessed an Einzbern Homunculus known as "Philia" I assume that they'll actually explain how she came to be here at some point. - It's explained more clearly in the novel, but Ishtar's smile is completely inhumane. Totally different from FGO's Ishtar. She's a god through and through. If you remember back in the Babylonia anime it was stated that the Ishtar that we see is referred to as a "Pseudo Servant" which simply put are Servants that have manifested utilizing humans as their vessels and Rin Tohsaka was Ishtar's vessel that the Holy Grail basically yoinked from across time and space for Ishtar to temporarily use. Another thing unique to Pseudo Servants is that they can potentially have a personality percentage split and in Ishtar's case it was 70% Ishtar / 30% Rin. However, despite Ishtar being the major personality, Rin nerfed her worst traits that Gil would consider her "unapproachable", considering how much he and Enkidu hate her guts. So for the very first time we get to see what the REAL Ishtar is like and as we can see they aren't a pleasant person in the least.

Also, Gilgamesh got done so fucking dirty that it pissed me off so much. He literally lost to a deus ex machina, aka the plot. Narita (the Fate/Strange Fake author) basically had to find a way to remove or nerf Gilgamesh from the war, otherwise it would have ended much sooner if he kept getting involved. If I'm being honest, the way he did it actually made sense objectively with how Gil got countered, but I still don’t like it personally. Like, what are the chances that the key (for the Gate of Babylon)you throw away in a cave, which cannot be used by humans and can only be used by Mesopotamian gods, somehow ends up mattering because the god who has been holding a petty grudge against you for around 4 to 5 thousand years manifests in the same Holy Grail War as you? And on top of that, "coincidentally," True Berserker just happens to be the very Servant that gave Gilgamesh and Enkidu PTSD and even paralyzed them with its scream (I’m mentioning this because it wasn’t explained in the anime). For context, there are basically an infinite number of Servants that can be summoned, so the chances of True Berserker being summoned into the same war as Gilgamesh are absolutely insane.

I mentioned it briefly in my last comment, but the anime has been cutting a lot of content and is unfortunately rushing the hell out of the story. For reference, an anime adapting a light novel usually covers around 3 to 4 volumes on average for a 12 episode season or cour. In Fate/Strange Fake's case, however, it’s adapting at least 6 volumes. Keep in mind that Volume 10 is supposed to be the final volume and will be released soon. That means there are still 4 more volumes left to adapt for the second cour. I honestly don’t know why they’re rushing things so much, but if I had to guess, it’s probably the production committee responsible for that decision rather than the studio itself.
