Ah, those Lancelot genes finally shining through.

u/rammux74 Jun 14 '25

Ironic since this is the one version of her that ISNT tied to gallahd

139

u/BusBoatBuey Jun 14 '25

I still don't understand what part of Mash actually is Galahad and which isn't. I always assumed part of the Demi-Servant process made them physically partially whatever servant they are merged with.

u/rammux74 Jun 14 '25

Demi servants keep their human mind/ bodies, but become stronger and are able to use the powers of regular servants when they go into demi servant form ( the one she fights in)

Ortinax is when gallahd leaves her body so she uses a unique piece of armor that manages to use what's left of gallahds influence on her + the armors own power

Then her full servant form in oc4 is when she becomes a servant by herself with her own power, unrelated to gallahd or anyone else

Then her full servant form in oc4 is when she becomes a servant by herself with her own power, unrelated to gallahd or anyone else

It's not a full servant form. As the chapter makes extremely clear, her achieving a full servant form would be bad. Paladin is basically her severing her ties with Galahad and shaping the power remaining in her into her own, but it will only work until we fix the Bleached Earth.

"To avoid being stuck as a Ghost Liner, Mash undertook a binding vow"

u/Snoopcat64 Jun 15 '25

Take my upvote and get the f out.

8

u/ArchAnon123 Jun 15 '25

Supposedly. Let's be honest, they'll find a way to justify it coming back as soon as Part 3 arrives.

3

u/rammux74 Jun 15 '25

Nah, theyll find another way to nerf her again

4

u/ArchAnon123 Jun 15 '25

They already did that by making her cost points.

3

u/rammux74 Jun 15 '25

I'm talking about a canonical story nerf like ortinax in part 2

3

u/ArchAnon123 Jun 15 '25

Ah. Well, I bet they'll suggest she's just a normal human for a while only to get her powers back again as soon as the next crisis hits.

5

u/Arthwind Jun 15 '25

Wasn't it established that Galahad never left her, it's just that Mash stopped being able to draw his power properly because of her own mental? Even Da Vinci has been talking about it, specifically at the start of LB 7 how she's outgrowing Galahad's saint graph.

Galahad never left. He was always taking a backseat outside of the Camelot singularity.

40

u/banjo2E Jun 15 '25

given that she's a designer baby specifically made to house the spirit of galahad, my assumption is she normally would have expressed lancelot genes, but galahad's influence suppressed them because he hates his dad

29

u/PhantasosX Jun 14 '25

Like others pointed out , Demo-Servants maintains their human mind and bodies , as a living being.

All while they are inserted with the power of a specific servant. You are not wrong in thinking that they are partially turned to the servant they merges with.

u/Muteki_Narwhal Jun 14 '25

Mash now has an attraction towards married women.

102

u/Malosthatguy Jun 14 '25

She be looking at Morgan REALLY different now-

66

u/worms9 Jun 14 '25

From cucked to cucker. I am so proud of my little eggplant.

67

u/Eldar_Seer ."The Gacha is Good Civilization!" Jun 14 '25

Where before she was competition, now she’s an extra course of cake…

13

u/Hp22h Batter Up! Jun 15 '25

This is Mash's harem now

23

u/HarEmiya Jun 14 '25

Now? Did you already forget about the LB6 Yuri Party?

11

u/DrStein1010 Jun 15 '25

I mean, LB 6 shipped them a hell of a lot harder than Morgan/Ritsuka.

-1

u/MrBluer Jun 15 '25

You’re correct, but to begin with, fans ignored the canon subtext of Morgan’s character in general and her relationship with Fujimaru in particular in favor of “my waifu.”

9

u/CrazyDaimondDaze Jalter/Castoria/Musashi Enjoyer Jun 14 '25

Wait... does that mean we make fun of her now, focusing on that part? Or that we bring the no horny bonk to bonk her while shaming her too? Or both?

19

u/cybernet377 270582 235060 244401 258362 229191 182315 Jun 15 '25

We tag team the married women with her

14

u/Sulphur99 Jun 15 '25

It's a win-win for her if the married women is ours anyway, at that point it's just a polycule

6

u/Hp22h Batter Up! Jun 15 '25

Threesome ftw

15

u/SethNex Jun 15 '25

She really does took after her "father"

154

u/Kaydh Lv 120 Albion Spam Jun 14 '25

Huh I thought that was just a coloring decision for aesthetics, I didn’t think her hair actually changed colors.

70

u/Thehalohedgehog Barghest and Martha simp Jun 14 '25

Same, I thought it was just like a shading thing

248

u/Masticatron Jun 14 '25

She's only halfway through the transformation into Super Mash.

96

u/Heliock Jun 14 '25

Ultra Ego Mash

37

u/GXNext Jun 14 '25

More like Fusion Mash. Gotenks had the same hair, just spickyer...

6

u/Professional_Maize42 Jun 15 '25

And black-purple instead of pink-purple

129

u/Perfect_Sentence296 Jun 14 '25

Lancelot: "thats my girl."

30

u/Gudako_the_beast Jun 14 '25

Mash: Oh…Thank you, Papa!

35

u/Kuzu5993 Jun 15 '25

Lancelot: *Cough Blood*

7

u/Alternative-Word-246 Jun 15 '25

Lancelot: my wish is fulfilled , now I have no desire countiune. * Getting erased from throne of heroes

Ritsuka: no! We still need you for farming and married woman jokes

5

u/Gudako_the_beast Jun 15 '25

Lancelot: There’s still Trish- disappear

128

u/BrotherCaptainLurker Jun 14 '25

"It was always kinda purp- OH"

50

u/gangler52 Jun 14 '25

Yeah, it was always purple, but it is a different purple now, in some parts. Got some highlights.

18

u/Darkiceflame Jun 14 '25

I was about to comment something similar to the start of this, then I noticed there was a second image.

208

u/MokonaModokiES Insert text here Jun 14 '25 edited Jun 14 '25

So she dyed her hair?

Mash really is going through her rebellious phase.

5

u/ImRinKagamine Saber the only best blonde waifu. Jun 15 '25

Emo she is

2

u/BobtheBac0n Jun 16 '25

She's picked up a little bit from her new best friend Lilith

113

u/WaifuHunterRed Rider of Beasts Jun 14 '25

Everyday she comes closer to becoming a real eggplant

21

u/ZayParolik Jun 14 '25

In the end, we will have her looking like pearto, but eggplant instead of pear, and Mash instead of Teto

7

u/No_Wait_3628 Jun 15 '25

When she reaches her perfect form, the Master of Mankind can then copulate to produce the needed 20 children for humanity's revival

5

u/WaifuHunterRed Rider of Beasts Jun 15 '25

I wonder if you know the implications of that sweet home Alabama

1

u/Beast9Schrodinger Jun 16 '25

Faithful to ancient Philippine myth, lol.

u/x1coins Jun 16 '25

Real eggplants have worms in them. Sakura kouhai supremacy!

75

u/DIODidNothing_Wrong Jun 14 '25

Now shes gotta be calling Lancelot dad every time he mentions it

27

u/Torking Jun 14 '25

Lancelot going Berserk again

10

u/No_Wait_3628 Jun 15 '25

Going Berserk from hor proud he is of his daughter

21

u/chroniclechase Jun 15 '25

lancelot genes started hitting harder thanks to galahad

even after he left

17

u/TheSherman500 Jun 14 '25

I just thought it was shading in the art.

1

u/tipoima Jun 15 '25

Likewise. Feels like an oversight in the sprite more than anything, honestly.

15

u/Char-11 ALL HAIL MEDJED-SAMA Jun 15 '25

Two tone hair my beloved...

19

u/Nintendude1236 Jun 14 '25

Might want to throw a spoiler and JP tag on this. But that is a neat touch!

7

u/Leyrran Jun 14 '25

I've just realized she's doing Gilgamesh's pose before using Ea

6

u/UltG Jun 15 '25

she truly is an eggplant

8

u/WooooshMe2825 "I hate being alive" Jun 14 '25

I think it’s just purple underneath.

9

u/realmer17 Jun 14 '25

At least mark that as spoiler 😭

3

u/GXNext Jun 14 '25

Hm... did they ever mention who's genes they used when they made Mash as a homunculus?

3

u/Gudako_the_beast Jun 14 '25

I knew it was purple

1

u/ZeothTheHedgehog I have found my Queen Jun 15 '25

I'm not gonna lie, I thought it was blue XD

8

u/LightStormyxD Jun 14 '25

doesn't she have that since the beginning

21

u/Big-Confection1463 Jun 14 '25

No she doesnot

5

u/LightStormyxD Jun 14 '25

nvm my I see that too now

2

u/EntertainmentIll1567 Jun 15 '25

The underside of her hair is actually a different color? I thought that was just shading

2

u/BBSenpai000 Jun 15 '25

Mash is finally becoming a BB

1

u/Illustrious_Ad3815 Jun 16 '25

Wouldn't that be a fun twist? Mash's story being the origin story of BB, meaning that we're actually participating in the creation of the Moon Cell as well.

2

u/Comin4datrune Jun 15 '25

fk me i just got to beat Gawain in Camelot rn and im so confused about this lol

2

u/Wafudramon Kiyohime Supremacy! Jun 15 '25

maybe in her paladin form?

6

u/Xaldror :Raikou: Jun 14 '25

Ushi Gozen: told her she'd look good with two-toned hair.

2

u/Colico2445 Jun 14 '25

Mash become a reiwa girl 🤯

1

u/OriharaYuzuru Jun 15 '25

That's look more cute TBH

1

u/Mitch-The-Litch Love failing to be evil Jun 15 '25

Why she urple?

1

u/TRaywen_ Jun 15 '25

The eggplant is ripping

1

u/Jolly-Airport-6463 Jun 15 '25

I feel like that was the first thing everyone noticed I mean how could you not?

1

u/SigmaBattalion Jun 15 '25

Spoiled. It's over.

1

u/Xatu44 Mysterious Shitposter X Jun 16 '25

Matt getting the Super Saiyan hair raise is sick.

1

u/Mage_43 I just think they're neat Jun 16 '25

Honestly I'm kinda vibing with it, I like it.

1

u/BobtheBac0n Jun 16 '25

Shit that's hot! As if Mashu wasn't already beautiful

1

u/Glass_Site_4085 Jun 16 '25

Our beloved and cute Kyohai, is turning into a rebel damn Galahad and Lilith!!!

1

u/GabrielDelsXT9 Jun 28 '25

She grew so fast... 😭

2

u/leow193 Jun 14 '25

Well... duh ?

(not really a fan, though...)

4

u/ZeothTheHedgehog I have found my Queen Jun 15 '25

Personally a fan, as the "underside of hair is a different color" thing is a design trope(?) that I find cool.

Though I can definitely understand why some might not like it, at least on Mash XD

0

u/Tschmelz Jun 14 '25

Imma say it, I don't like it. Love absolutely everything else about Super Mash's design, but half her hair being pure purple in the sprite just looks dumb to me. Ritsuka gotta go find Paracelsus and ask him to whip up a bottle of dye, get it back to normal.

3

u/ZeothTheHedgehog I have found my Queen Jun 15 '25

I'm curious. What do you think of Miss Crane's third ascension?

0

u/Tschmelz Jun 15 '25

It's fine, though I prefer the first. I'm a sucker for hoods. Two tone hair (or whatever it's called) isn't necessarily a dealbreaker for me, I just don't think the color works for Mash.

1

u/Harmonic_Gear Jun 14 '25

reiwa-fication of mash

0

u/mutei777 Jun 15 '25

Big trend in anime designs to have that inner 2nd hair color, huh?
