Tamamo-no-Mae

Caster is again selectable as one of the servants for Hakuno Kishinami.

In the prologue, Hakuno hears Caster’s voice begging Hakuno to wake up and remember her, but Hakuno has no memory on who the voice belongs to. Once Hakuno is devoured by BB’s shadows, Hakuno once again hears Caster’s voice and reaches out to her. Caster breaks the barrier to save Hakuno and took Hakuno to the new school. When she reached to the Far Side of Moon Cell, she wore her new costume.

In Chapter bad end, BB separates Hakuno from Caster. Hakuno travels to the World of Logo to search for her. Hakuno eventually regains Caster, unseals her noble phantasm and they both face BB’s shadow Requiem.

She develops a rivalry relationship with Elizabeth Báthory. In chapter 7 Hakuno enters inside Caster’s Innercore Harmonics. Hakuno temporary formed a contract with Elizabeth, they fought against the Zero Model of Caster.

In Caster’s ending, Hakuno returns to the Moon Cell Holy Grail War as seen in Fate/EXTRA. While Hakuno waited to be deleted by the Moon Cell at the end of Extra, Caster trains for a 1000 years and grow back her tails. With her new power she able to go back in time to save Hakuno by giving the Moon Cell one hard kick. Tamamo’s kick destroyed the Moon Cell’s Core, it recovered itself and switched to environment supply mode, SE.RA.PH became a new frontier for not only mankind but aliens from other planets as well. However Caster didn’t like her extra 8 tail so she removed them and threw them in the imaginary number space. Caster would later live happily in the country side in the SE.RA.PH until 97% was conquered by the Tamamo Nine. Hakuno decided to stop them and Caster energetically agrees.^[13]

In Sakura’s ending, after beating Kiara Sessyoin, the Moon Cell does a reset and appears to be deleting Caster. However, it turns out that the moon cell didn’t have the power to delete her and her supposed deletion is revealed to be only an act to leave a lasting memory on Hakuno since they were going to be with Sakura. Caster would last be seen walk off into a bright light.

The past versions of Twice H. Pieceman and Caster appear as a bonus boss fight. Twice’s Caster attempts to act more seriously and has different hairstyle.

She fights Suzuka Gozen in the Sakura Labyrinth, until Kazuhito Sakagami orders Suzuka to withdraw.^{[14][15][16][17]} Tamamo then infiltrates Kingprotea to rescue Hakuno.^[18] After a while, she goes to the Hot Spring along with the rest of the Student Council.^[19] She battles Suzuka again in the Ninth floor of the Sakura Labyrinth.^[20][21] She fights Violet.^{[22][23][24][25][26]}

Fate/EXTELLA[]

Caster returns as a selectable playable character. This time, she will be facing other parties in an upcoming war and her main party consists of herself, her adjutant Karna, Elizabeth, Medusa, and Lu Bu.

Extella/Zero[]

In the retold events of Fate/EXTRA leading to Fate/EXTELLA, Tamamo was Atrum Galliasta’s Servant, and encountered Hakuno and Nero during 4th round. Artrum ordered her to seduce Hakuno into giving up the war, but she fell in love with Hakuno instead. During the Elimination fight, Atrum lost to Hakuno, so he used his sacrificial magecraft to burn Tamamo as a scapegoat. Hakuno used a Command Spell to form a contract with her, and she fully recovered and bypassed the firewall. Later, when Hakuno and Nero reached the Angelica Cage, Tamamo is unable to enter as she’s the Servant of a defeated Master. Knowing Hakuno cannot enter as long as she is with them, she bid farewell to Hakuno and Nero.^[27]

Flame Poem[]

Tamamo orders Elizabeth to invade Nero Claudius’ territory of Mare Aurum, but it’s ultimately suppressed by Nero’s forces. She reveals herself when Nero is preparing to take Hakuno to her room to heal their sudden fatigue. Nero tells Hakuno that they allied with Tamamo during the war, who was planning to take the Holy Grail for herself. Her aspirations came to nothing though as Tamamo accuses Nero of pushing her off the path to the Angelica Cage, but Nero denies the accusation. (Nero and Tamamo are in truth telling their own version of what transpired in the war’s climax due to their love rivalry with Hakuno.) Saying Hakuno will be hers soon, she agrees with Nero that Hakuno needs to rest. Declaring war on Nero, she shows she also possesses the Regalia, the ring of authority in SE.RA.PH, to Nero’s shock. Another Hakuno then appears, and Tamamo mocks Nero’s confusion at the existence of two Hakunos. She proclaims herself and her Hakuno as the rulers of SE.RA.PH. She reveals she already conquered half of SE.RA.PH within in the last few days. Telling Nero to prepare herself and she cannot be stopped, Tamamo leaves with the other Hakuno.^[28][29]

Later, Tamamo and Hakuno’s Soul encounters Nero and Hakuno’s Mind when they came to her territory of Mare Luxuria. Nero infuriates her for wanting to steal her Master in order to restore her own. Rejecting Nero’s request of surrender, she calls her naïve, and challenges her as she tells Mind she’ll free them from Nero. Returning to her palace, Tamamo orders her forces to attack Nero and her forces. However, she and her forces are defeated by Nero’s forces and herself. Lamenting her defeat, she waits to be executed by Nero when Soul appears to protect her. Soul’s faith in her overjoys her, and she considers herself foolish for getting them involved in her conquest of SE.RA.PH. After confessing her love for Hakuno, she is spared by Nero. The appearance of the system engineer, Archimedes, however interrupts any discussion on the Hakunos. Tamamo decides to give her Regalia to Nero, as per the terms of her surrender. She remains true to them even after Archimedes reveals unifying the Regalias means unifying the Hakunos, despite Nero’s concerns. Suddenly, Elizabeth appears and steals the Regalia from her, declaring she’ll to conquer SE.RA.PH. However, the Regalia overload after Elizabeth put in on as it rejects her. After the Regalia destroys itself, Tamamo retreats with Soul, warning Nero of her upcoming burdens as ruler of SE.RA.PH.^[30][31]

Orchid Words[]

Greeting the newly awoken Hakuno over the intercom, Tamamo orders Elizabeth to bring them to the throne room. There she speaks to them in a threatening demeanor. But seeing they aren’t falling for it, she drops the act, and properly greets them. She then orders Elizabeth to announce her as the ruler of SE.RA.PH and wielder of the Regalia. Tamamo corrects her that Hakuno rules alongside her, then tells Hakuno of their victory in the Holy Grail War. She asks Hakuno if they remember everything of their relationship, and she’s delighted to hear they do. Tamamo explains how they became the rulers of SE.RA.PH with their victory in the war, but she’s interrupted by the appearance of Archimedes. He pledges his loyalty to her and Hakuno, and Tamamo thanks him for bringing her Master back to her palace. However, she quickly threatens him for interrupting her moment with Hakuno. Apologizing for his impertinence, Archimedes tells her of the oncoming danger to SE.RA.PH, which he says only Tamamo and Hakuno can resolve. Tamamo explains to him they need to defeat all opposing Servants first. However, Archimedes tells her again she needs to resolve the threat to SE.RA.PH, which enrages her. After Hakuno calms her down, she states the danger to SE.RA.PH doesn’t concern her as she only wants to live happily with Hakuno. Tamamo electrocutes Elizabeth when she says Tamamo will keep searching for joy beyond Hakuno. She tells Hakuno she wants to live a luxurious life with them, not caring about anything else. Archimedes realizes he can’t force her to take action when Tamamo senses intruder in the palace. Medusa suspects the intruder is Assassin, calling palace security to useless. Tamamo introduces her to Hakuno as a Solo Servant she recruited as a spy. Lu Bu and Karna then appear to introduce themselves to Hakuno, which makes Tamamo concerned about their priorities when there’s an intruder. After introducing her generals, she orders them to stop the intruder.^[32]

Outside the palace, Tamamo forcibly absorbs Hakuno into the Regalia to keep them safe with her as she heads into battle. After defeating Li Shuwen, she boasts to Hakuno how they’ll govern an eternally peaceful SE.RA.PH, but Nero appears to criticize her intent. Nero announces she’ll stop Tamamo, which Tamamo considers futile. She is shocked Hakuno remembers fighting alongside Nero in the Grail War. She regards Nero as an enemy though, recalling how Nero pushed off her the path to the Angelica Cage in the war’s climax. Tamamo is initially left confused by the appearance of another Hakuno whose asked by Nero regarding Tamamo’s claim. However, she already knew Hakuno was split into their Mind and their Soul, which is the one she’s with. Nero states the true threat to Moon Cell approaches, but Tamamo considers everything besides Hakuno to be trivial. Nero announces to her she’ll stop her from ruling SE.RA.PH, and absorbs Hakuno’s Mind into her Regalia. Tamamo is angered that she has the other Regalia and activates her Moon Crux form to fight Nero. However, neither of them can overpower the other, even though Nero hasn’t activated her full power. Nero leaves disappointed in Tamamo following her selfish desires, which Tamamo agrees with. She and Hakuno then return to her throne room before heading to her room to rest since she used too much mana. She later disagrees with Hakuno on not wanting her to fight Nero.

The next morning, Tamamo greets Hakuno the very moment they wake up as she lies atop of them. She declares to them she’ll stay by their side forever as their beloved. Further infatuated by Hakuno’s silence at her words, Tamamo prepares to make love to Hakuno. However, she is interrupted by Elizabeth, whose promptly electrocuted as punishment. Tamamo prepares to punish her further with fire, but she stops when Elizabeth apologizes for transgression. No longer amused by Elizabeth’s torture, she tells Hakuno to go to the throne room.^[33]

There Archimedes tells Tamamo to defeat Nero, which gladdens Tammao to see he finally sees her way. Archimedes then explains to her how her and Nero’s Regalia can become one, and that she’ll need to invade Nero’s territory to defeat her. Elizabeth comments they need to save Mind, but Tamamo dismisses her. She says there’s no need to save Mind since she already has Soul with her. Declaring they only need to restore the Regalia to conquer SE.RA.PH, she heads to the battle with Hakuno.

Her forces invade Mare Mellum while Nero’s forces were conquering it to take over the neutral sectors before Nero’s forces do. After conquering Mare Mellum’s neutral sectors, Tamamo returns to her room with Hakuno. She prepares to make love to Hakuno again, but she is interrupted when Altera talks to Hakuno through a vision. Tamamo appears in the vision to save Hakuno and deduces Altera as the threat to SE.RA.PH. After Hakuno reawakens, Tamamo declares Altera to be an enemy, finally recognizing why Archimedes considers her a threat. She electrocutes Elizabeth twice for entering without permission. Afterwards, she orders Elizabeth to leave in response to Hakuno’s compassion for her. Later that night, Tamamo asks Hakuno if they admired Altera. Hearing their answer, she apologizes for doubting Hakuno’s love, and returning to sleeping next to them.

Tamamo congratulates her generals on their victories. Archimedes reports that her continuous victories have weakened Nero’s forces, and Nero’s base of Mare Aurum has been located. Tamamo’s forces prepare to march onto Mare Aurum, but before that she has Hakuno promise to let her make all battle decisions.

Arriving in Mare Aurum, Tamamo and Hakuno are confronted by Elizabeth. Tamamo reminds her to clean the palace, but Elizabeth reveals she resigned and her plans to turn SE.RA.PH into her personal playground. After Elizabeth says she’ll steal the Regalia, Tamamo asks her who put that thought into her head. She mocks her further by offering her a position as her court jester. After Elizabeth leaves declaring war on her, Tamamo tells Hakuno that Elizabeth is just someone’s puppet as she further insults her. She and Hakuno then fight their way through Nero’s forces, also defeating Gawain.

Arriving in Nero’s palace, Tamamo dismisses Nero’s declaration that she’ll free Hakuno from her, stating Moon Cell chose her, not Nero. Declaring Mare Aurum is at its end, Tamamo and Nero fight each other. Tamamo defeats Nero and dismisses the latter’s words about saving the Earth since she lost. She prepares to finish Nero off, but Mind appears to protect Nero. She tells Mind that there’s no need to protect Nero since she lost and will lose her Regalia soon. She asks Mind to join her, but they refuse to leave Nero. She confesses how happy she was when the Regalia appeared on her finger after she failed to reach the Angelica Core in the war. However, she shocked to see the Regalia on Nero’s finger. Taking Nero’s Regalia, she declares herself ruler of all of SE.RA.PH. After Nero retreats with Mind, Archimedes appears to congratulate Tamamo on her victory. She calls him impatient for wanting to restore the Regalia immediately, not trusting his words that it’s for the tranquility of SE.RA.PH. Rather cautious of the situation, she tells Hakuno to not move. Suddenly, Elizabeth drops in from above, and steals the Regalia and puts it on. As the Regalia begins to overload, Tamamo orders Elizabeth to take it off. She is shocked it doesn’t shatter, calling it impossible that Elizabeth now wields the Regalia.

Elizabeth declares herself the ruler of SE.RA.PH; Tamamo sees herself mirrored in her. Everyone then watches in utter confusion as Elizabeth eats the Regalia. After Elizabeth is transformed from her act, Tamamo expresses her shock at what Elizabeth did. She and Hakuno then witness as Archimedes is obliterated by Elizabeth’s Báthory Erzsébet. She defends Hakuno from Elizabeth when Altera suddenly emerges from the Zero Dark. She and Hakuno then witness Elizabeth being destroyed by Altera’s Void Cells. Tamamo defends herself and Hakuno when Altera attacks them with her sword. Recognizing the strike as a regular attack and not a Noble Phantasm, Tamamo realizes Altera specializes in destruction. She isn’t surprised when another Hakuno appears next to Altera, deducing them to be the Body. She is able to recognize Altera from their prior encounter in her room and asks her who she is. Altera refuses to answer and prepares to attack again, so Tamamo uses the entirety of her Moon Crux to retreat with Hakuno.

The next day, Tamamo tells Hakuno that her territories have been destroyed, and Karna, Medusa, and Lu Bu are trying to hold off Altera’s forces. Despite being unsure of victory even with the Regalia, she chooses to fight. Elizabeth then arrives suddenly. Tamamo deduces her new appearance to be from the power of Velber, the alien threat from 14,000 years ago. She is able to recognize Velber’s power, though not the name itself, since she is an avatar of Amaterasu. Elizabeth explains how Velber nearly destroyed both Moon Cell and civilization on earth with Sefar fourteen millennia ago. Tamamo deduces from her words that the Regalia is a tool to defend the Moon Cell against Velber. She refuses to join Elizabeth and declares war on Altera, but not for the sake of SE.RA.PH. She explains her hatred for Altera, despite being an anti-hero, is because she despises inhumane monsters. She tries to attack Elizabeth, but the latter blocks it and leaves. Karna then reports that Gilgamesh destroyed the territory he was guarding.^[34]

Later in her room, Tamamo wonders why Body is with Altera and if Archimedes might’ve known something. After returning from defeating Gilgamesh, Tamamo learns Karna that Gilgamesh’s defeat saved a portion of Mare Luxuria from his bombardments. Heeding Karna’s advice, she uses the Regalia to see that her territories are still being attacked by another force, which Lu Bu is pursuing. Medusa suspects Altera leads it, but Tamamo tells her and Karna to relax. After they leave, she tells Hakuno that she’ll guarantee their safety from Altera’s army. She says their fight against their enemy will be a message that their brilliance will never fade. Later in her room, she tells Hakuno they’ll likely head into the Zero Dark to battle Velber’s forces. She continues their fight started because of her greed, not caring to protect either SE.RA.PH or Earth. Despite calling herself neither protector nor savior, she cannot abide Altera.

After Hakuno awakens from another dream of Altera talking to them, Tamamo becomes jealous of Altera when she demands the Regalia. Later into the night, she confesses to Hakuno that her and Altera’s natures are the same as they were both born to be enemies of humanity. She understands how Altera can forcibly dominate humans as they’re both monsters, and it’s easier for heartless creatures. Telling Hakuno to dismiss her words if they make them hesitate, she wishes them a good night and goes back to sleep.

The next day, Tamamo and Hakuno take a stroll outside for their date. Hakuno asks her how they’ll get into the Zero Dark. Tamamo answers she can create a portal to it. After creating the portal, she and Hakuno have a meal in preparation for their fight against Altera. She believes becoming a goddess would give her power on par with Velber, but that’d also remove her existence as a Servant as she doesn’t want to leave Hakuno. Afterwards, she and her forces invade Altera’s territory of Mare Origio through the portal she made.^[35]

Fighting her way through the enemy, she eventually confronts Altera in her palace. She questions why Altera is hesitating to kill her. She notes the contradiction between Altera’s destructive power and her doubt, which Altera herself understands. Tamamo refuses to give the Regalia to Altera, partially because of her own jealously. Refusing to listen to her anymore, she fights Altera. She defeats Altera and uses a digital decoy with Regalia’s remaining power to avoid Teardrop Photon Ray. She then uses Eightfold Blessing of Amaterasu to ambush Altera from above with her strongest spell: Gyokutenhou. However, Elizabeth appears and transforms Altera into her original form of the White Titan, Sefar. Tamamo points out to Hakuno that their Body is standing on Sefar’s shoulder. Fearing it may be the end, she confesses to Hakuno she was playing the part of a tyrannical harlot out fear of loneliness. She reveals that since she is an avatar of Amateratsu she knew about the destruction Sefar caused 14,000 years ago. She knew Sefar would return beforehand, but was too paranoid of the end to say anything. Seeing that Hakuno accepts her no matter what, Tamamo fights Sefar to protect SE.RA.PH for their sake. Following Sefar and Bodyʻs deaths, she and Hakuno return to Mare Luxuria. She tells Hakuno to enjoy their peaceful days together until Velber inevitably arrives. They then go shopping together for tonight’s dinner.^[36]

Dawn[]

Tamamo and her army invade Mare Origio to save Body. Deciding to speak with Altera, she is able to recognize Body when they emerge from Altera’s Regalia. She reveals Hakuno’s Mind and Body will eventually fade out of existence, and offers a surrender in exchange for Body coming with her. She reprimands Altera for allowing Body on the battlefield as even the smallest wound could mean their demise, not believing Altera didn’t know that fact. Altera ends negotiations, and her affection for Hakuno surprises Tamamo. She questions at first what kind of power Hakuno gives Altera, but decides to fight instead. Altera defeats her, but she manages to retreat.

Altera’s forces later invade Mare Luxuria. Tamamo is already prepared to face Altera when she enters her palace. Seeing negotiating won’t work again, she prepares to fight Altera again. She admits Hakuno would try to understand both her and Altera, even if they both enemies of humanity. She again offers to let Body join her, but they refuse to abandon Altera. She understands that to be Hakuno’s nature and then fights Altera without the intent to retreat. As she disappears with her defeat, Tamamo tries to say some final words to Soul, but she is finished off by Altera.

Golden Poem[]

Tamamo orders Lu Bu, Medusa, and Karna to invade Mare Aurum, but it’s ultimately suppressed by Nero’s forces. Later, she encounters Nero when the latter invades Mare Luxuria. She transforms into her Moon Crux form to fight Nero for the Regalia, but she’s eventually convinced by Mind to talk. Deactivating her Moon Crux form, she apologizes to Soul for letting her jealously towards Nero get the better of her. She and Nero then witness as their Regalias and Mind and Soul begin to fuse. She dismisses Nero’s concern for Body, believing them to impure and no longer the Hakuno they knew. She also reveals she also received Bodyʻs message from a previous parallel world, but stops talking of them so not to sully their name. Changing the subject, she tells Nero that unless Velber’s return is stopped, both the Earth and the Moon are doomed. Recalling the destruction brought about by Velber’s last visit, she declares both she and Hakuno want to prevent it from happening again. Following the fusion completing, Tamamo and Nero run to Hakuno and fight over them. Hakuno hits them both with a Code Cast to stop their arguing. Agreeing to settle the matter of Hakuno later, Tamamo and Nero witness Altera emerge from the Zero Dark.

They protect Hakuno despite their fear of Altera’s power. After blocking attack from Altera’s sword to her surprise, they fight her together. They struggle against her though; Tamamo warns Nero to be caution even with the Regalia. The fight is stopped when Hakuno emerges from the Regalia to negotiate with Altera. As Hakuno talks with Altera, Tamamo asks Nero about her current mana supply as she’s running low, to which Nero answers she’s the same. Tamamo tells her Altera’s sword isn’t magical nor divine, but she doesn’t explain any further. She lets Hakuno continue talking with Altera, believing their lives hinder on Hakuno’s words and how Altera perceives them. After Altera leaves, Tamamo states negotiations are at a standstill, but is glad to have been spared. She tells Hakuno not to be disheartened by Altera’s refusal to be saved from her fate, which they agree with.

Tamamo accompanies Hakuno and Nero back to Mare Aurum so she wouldn’t be alone. Nero explains Hakuno lives in Mare Aurum, and she wanted Tamamo to move her base to hers. Deciding to settle the matter of Hakuno’s living quarters later, Tamamo states the roman territories are the perfect point to plan their attack on Velber, as they’re both easy to defend and difficult to attack. Her generals already gathered, she joins in a strategy meeting with Nero and her generals. During the meeting, she warns the Regalia lost its ability to produce attack programs for an unknown reason when she hands it to Nero. After Nero declares she’ll defend SE.RA.PH, Tamamo suggests to her generals they stay behind to defend Mare Aurum. They agree, and Nero thanks her. Tamamo tells Hakuno to leave home defense to her. After the meeting, she catches Nero kissing Hakuno, which results in her and Nero arguing over Hakuno.

The next day, Tamamo tells Hakuno and Nero that Sefar destroyed all who fought it, thus she’s surprised by the two’s plan to save Altera. Stating to leave to home defense to her, she asks Nero to protect Hakuno before they depart for their next battle.^[37] After Nero destroyed the Ark of the Stars, a fragment of Velber in the Zero Dark, Tamamo detects from Nero’s throne that Velber’s forces in the Zero Dark are gone. Nameless says it’s a result of the Ark’s destruction, confirming it means their victory. Tamamo is shocked that Nero could destroy the Ark, as not even the gods could do it. While still jealous of her, she nonetheless believes Nero earned her victory.

Later, she competes with Nero for Hakuno’s affections, with each presenting a feast of their own to them. As they argue for Hakuno to eat their individual cooking, Altera interrupts them when she inquires about the food. Tamamo and Nero decide to end their competition with a draw, and enjoy the feast with Hakuno and Altera.

Fate/EXTELLA LINK[]

She returns as one of Hakuno’s servants to fight against the new threat to SE.RA.PH.

[]

According to the script, she is the servant inhabiting the 4th floor (which was skipped in the anime, but the way Nero referencing it is supposed to be a hint of her talking of her rival). It is unknown if she is there alone or there is a Master with her.

Fate/Grand Order[]

Fourth Singularity: London[]

Tamamo materializes from the Demonic Fog, having accompanied Sakata Kintoki’s summon. She is annoyed London is abandoned and surrounded by fog when she realizes its facing destruction. She only came so she could rehearse her honeymoon with her Master. She supports Kintoki in his fight against Nikola Tesla, but her spells aren’t very effective on the activated fog. The fight leaves the pair exhausted, so they leave the rest to the recently surfaced Ritsuka, Mash, and Mordred after Kintoki used Golden Spark to disperse the fog. Tamamo commends Kintoki as truly being one of Minamoto-no-Raikou’s kings. She is annoyed though that they have to leave the rest to the group.^[38]

She and Kintoki later join the others in the chamber of the fog’s source, Angrboda. She is perturbed by Hans Christian Andersen for wanting Mordred to slay her. Suddenly a mysterious figure emerges from a Rayshift-like distortion. He expresses disappointment in Gilles de Rais, Romulus, Jason, and Tesla for their failures. Tamamo wishes to flee, feeling as if merely looking will taint her. The figure then reveals he is the mastermind behind the Incineration of Humanity, Solomon. He reveals the ring of light seen in the skies of the Singularities is his third Noble Phantasm, Ars Almadel Salomonis. Out of his interest in Mash, he summons only four of the Demon Gods and attacks the group. The group kills one of the Demon Gods, however, Solomon kills William Shakespeare, Kintoki, and Tamamo.^[38]

Event: Saber Wars[]

Tamamo, Nero, and EMIYA interrupt Artoria Lily’s training when they come to investigate the crash site of Mysterious Heroine X‘s ship. However, they end fighting Ritsuka and the others when X suddenly attacks Nero. After the fight, Tamamo is pleased to see Ritsuka and Mash. She explains she accompanied Nero because she heard there was an appliance that could cook and do laundry. But X’s ship has no such machine. X eventually allows Nero to stay when EMIYA offers to be Artoria’s training partner. In response to Nero’s comment that she played a minor role in London, Tamamo claims she didn’t want to steal the spotlight from Mordred. She hopes there will be a Japanese stage, and thus will remain behind the scenes until then. She then goes into X’s ship since it seemed to have air conditioning.

Later, as Nero gives her “Only Heroic Spirits of the now can alter the past and future” speech, Tamamo points out that Charles Babbage, Nikola Tesla, and Sakata Kintoki have come. She comments that Kintoki’s attitude is why Shuten-douji drinks, though it’s more for entertainment. Kintoki notices Tamamo and asks her not to call Shuten. Tamamo replies she wouldn’t call Shuten even if Kintoki asked her to. She prefers Kintoki and Shuten’s relationship to remain private.

When X reveals she traveled from the future to save it. Tamamo wonders if Nero holding a world tour in the future is the cause. Nero is insulted, believing her concert would save the future. But X reveals it destroyed Space Rome, adding that it even caused Altera to flee. X then reveals that the future is in economic crisis due to the oversaturation of Sabers. Thus she came to the past to destroy the Saber class before that can happen. Nonetheless, she will spare Artoria Lily since they’re alike, unlike Nero. She is then shot by Ultra Heroine Z while protecting Nero. Z is a paradoxical version of X and fights the group. With the others supporting her, Artoria Lily defeats Z.

Summer Event: Chaldea Summer Memories[]

She appears in her swimsuit as a Lancer, due to Scáthach deed.

Summer Event: Chaldea Heat Odyssey[]

Final Singularity: Solomon[]

She is amongst the “London” Singularity Servants to aid Chaldea against the Demon Gods Pillars at the 4th Throne lead by Barbatos.^[39]

Subspecies Singularity: SE.RA.PH[]

Tamamo and Nero visit Ritsuka’s room, both excited that spring break is here. She is surprised Nero doesn’t have a swimsuit, wondering if she lacks confidence in her figure. Nero dismisses her words, claiming she gave up her place for Mordred‘s sake last time. She then boasts about how her swimsuited figure will be like a literal bolt of lightning, and spring break is merely a test. She decides to bide her time on the same deserted island Ritsuka was on for a month in 2016 until summer. Tamamo warns her it wasn’t nearly as fun as she might think. EMIYA then enters the room, reprimanding Nero and Tamamo for bothering Ritsuka while also offering to continue training Ritsuka in magecraft fundamentals. Nero and Tamao agrees his crafty nature is why he’s kept his position as Ritsuka’s tutor. They all then hear Mash over the intercom announcing Chaldea will be receiving their regular report from Seraphix. Nero asks what Seraphix is, to which Tamamo and EMIYA explain it’s an offshore oil rig once owned by the Animusphere family that provides Chaldea with resources. Tamamo gets an ominous feeling from the name Seraphix, but she nonetheless agrees to accompany Ritsuka there. Everyone then goes to the command room.^[40]

Chaldea attempts to contact the facility, but they receive no audio or visual, despite both feeds being active. They receive an SOS message (sent by a staff member with BB’s help), saying everyone is being digitized. The connection with Seraphix is then abruptly cut, so Leonardo da Vinci authorizes the use of Sheba to observe Seraphix. However, Seraphix seemingly no longer exists, with no signs of a Singularity. Chaldea soon receives a video message from BB. She reveals Seraphix no longer exists in the current time period, and tells Chaldea to check the Mariana Trench in 2030 A.D. The staff confirm Seraphix’s location, revealing it’s currently 200 meters below the surface along with the existence of a Singularity. BB tells Chaldea to save Seraphix’s staff before the oil rig sinks down to 10,000 meters while also dealing with the Singularity manifesting there. Da Vinci explains rayshifting to the future is impossible, but quickly realizes BB can verify Ritsuka and others’ existence since 2030 is BB’s present. BB warns Seraphix will reach the bottom of the trench in a few hours, at which point the water pressure will destroy it. Ritsuka, Nero, Tamamo, and EMIYA then rayshift to Seraphix. However BB supposedly hacks the rayshift to separate the group to random locations in the facility (in truth, it was Kiara who was responsible for the separation).^[40]

Tamamo, Nero, and EMIYA are captured by BB/GO and made into her Sentinels. They’re eventually freed from her influence by Ritsuka.^[41] Everyone then goes to the central area after a series of adventures which EMIYA claims couldn’t be shown due to “time constraints”. Confronting BB/GO, Nero expresses her frustration at her for not getting a part in the Kiara incident. Tamamo feels as if she played a bigger role in that than she actually did. She expects EMIYA feels the same way because EMIYA Alter played a role. The group then defeat BB/GO, and return to Chaldea after she yields her Spirit Origin to BB in order to let BB merge with her.^[42]

Interlude[]

E-Pal Wars[]

Tamamo drags off Ritsuka and Mash to a beach so she can send selfies of them being “lovey-dovey” to Kiyohime and Osakabehime. While she insists she remains committed to Hakuno (despite not remembering Hakuno’s name or even the circumstances in which they met), she wants to take the time to show her friends how well she gets along with her Master. The beach turns out to be a Lamia spawning ground, and she and Ritsuka fend off the attack.

Unfazed by the battle, Tamamo brings Ritsuka and Mash to a mountain inn to relax. Tamamo receives another text from Kiyohime about a shopping trip with her Master, provoking Tamamo to go on a tangent about Kiyohime’s tendency to see love where it doesn’t exist. They are again interrupted, this time by wyverns, and Tamamo uses the opportunity to vent her frustrations in battle.

The next day, Ritsuka and Mash are asked by Tamamo to help her calm down Kiyohime, who is on a rampage following a breakup.
