It’s like one scene, and the joke works a lot better when she’s Tohsaka’s terrible secret instead of Ilya’s generic mascot.

is illya's voice as weird in FSN as Prisma (mainly asking this based on the FGO CM)

expanding on this since i'm back home, but basically there's a big gap between early illya and prisma illya

illya's first appearances in the visual novel are meant to play up her initial image of a composed and icy, but teasing. a girl who can kill you without hesitation yet curtsies before battle and calls you 'onii-chan' (which at first seems like she's doing it to tease you). she begins to unwind around shirou and taiga but with restraint. she's mischievous with an air of grace—lots of smug faces, tossing her hair, and going "hmmmm~?"


on the other hand, prisma illya is a (relatively) normal girl who stumbled into a crazy world and so a lot of her role in the comedy of the series is reacting to everything and generally being a tsukkomi. in the manga/animation you see this expressed as approximately 69420 crazy reaction faces, and her seiyuu (kadowaki mai) builds on this marvelously with super exaggerated "hoeeeee? fueeeeeeeeeeeeh?" and such.

ASK ME ABOUT KISSING A GHOST
Hahaha.

So a bunch of Servants in FGO got updated voicelines recently, one of them being Siegfried.
And in one of his new voicelines he talks about his legendary cursed treasure, Das Rhinegold, and that after his death it eventually found its way to a family of German alchemists called the Einzberns. He then concludes by saying he hopes the curse wasn't passed along too...

Same voice actress but she affects a more mature tone for FSN compared to Prisma, as Space Flower elaborated.

Tarezax posted:

Ruby was introduced in Fate/Hollow Ataraxia

In fact all of Prisma Illya is an extended riff on her appearance there
Ruby in turn is pretty much an extended riff on Kohaku. Same VA, even.

Which is why Sapphire is voiced by Hisui (RIP) and the previous Hisui.

Miyu and Ilya are trying to learn how to use their magic powers to fly. Ilya learns how to just from watching magical girl anime and figuring that a lot of magical girls fly, so she can too. Miyu tries to figure out the mathematical equations required in order for her magical energy to generate perpetual flight. Ilya's head epxlodes.

And in the end Miyu never learns how to actually fly. :v:

I like that Miyu just hops platformer style from one magically conjured surface to another; while Illya continue'ing Shirou's nerd tradition simply assumed Magical Girl logic is true!

I like Illya as a normal girl who overreacts to what goes on around her because honestly after HF you really want to see something wholesome even though personality wise there's basically nothing in common other than the fact she's still an Einzbern homunculi (hilarious autocorrect wants to write munchkin instead which is true!).

Lancer traits: Bad luck, good against archers, very attractive.

Also I know it wasn't the lancer you're thinking of but in FGO Scathach's Valentine's Day chocolate is a little chocolate heart with a gae bolg in it. 100% dark chocolate, natch. :v:
