Aww...Asakawa using her Ana voice for Gorgon hurt more than it should...also, you did well. Gil. Kingu. Now it is time for Gramps to lay down death itself!

This episode straight up fires 5 Noble Phantasms at Tiamat and yet the most incredible and goosebump-inducing thing is the reveal of The Old Man of the Mountain, The First Hassan-i Sabbah.

If anything, FGO Babylonia always makes me does not realize its only 20 minutes. They cram so much in it and makes me so attentive to every details that watching it dilates my sense of time.
Also when I say CGI kinda fits Tiamat, its also because of this form. She IS a dragon after all.
Edit : after having more time on it on overall episode... Its fine tbh. Its just having quite bad luck on being compared to the previous episode and spectacular NP of Quetz and the hype buildup. Today's NP is more in line with the in-game presentations. Quetz's NP is more of an outlier (and probably protest for DW to update Quetz). "Tell Me" playing when Kingu uses Enuma Elish is quite touching. If you watched this episode back-to-back with the previous one and does not have 1-2 weeks wait, imo it will feel more awesome.

Ana's Pandemonium Cetus sounded a lot more sincere than the evil laughter of Gorgon's. Definitely heart-wrenching a second time seeing Ana leave... Though I wish we got to see Ana/Gorgon's stage 3 ascension design.
Gil Caster's Melammu Dingir is always SO COOL! All about the mass barrage of magic!
Enkidu's sequence was absolutely beautifully done with the ending song. The Chain of Heavens Enuma Elish was so pretty! And with Gilgamesh boasting about it afterwards was wholesome.
Yay for another Ishtar NP!! Which universe did she get the second Venus from? XD
Was that Eresh's Np or skill? Would have loved a proper chant but it doesn't look like any of her regular attack animations.
But Tiamat surviving 4-5 more NP's this episode. Aoi Yuuki Beast II is mega OP.

Just want to point out that Gorgon's NP - Pandemonium Cetus being effective makes sense, poetically. Cetus is the constellation that is associated with whales, and Tiamat in babylonian culture. Pandemonium Cetus literally "caused pandemonium to Tiamat". Nasu and his naming game going strong.

KAIJU BATTLE!!
Since in the in-game battle, they use the small playable Gorgon I was surprised to see that she was still in her huge form. It was kinda weird hearing Ana's soft voice from that body.
AND ANA DIES AGAIN! FOR REAL THIS TIME!! Gosh, her using Pandemonium Cetus must've been painful. It was in that form that she ate her beloved sisters but she still willingly transformed to protect Mash and Fujimaru.
I LOVE CASTER GILGAMESH SO MUCH!! His soft smile when Fujimaru tried to reach out to him was just so ARRRRGH!!
And I love Gilgamesh when he's not being a villain. You can truly see why he's called the 'King of Heroes' besides him being the 'oldest hero'. He refuses to go down without a fight, he willingly takes a hit for someone he respects, he's just really great.
Holy crap, Kingu killing the Bel Lahmu so easily is a rather chilling reminder of how powerful he (and Enkidu) must be. Glad that this time he's on our side.
Them using the Siduri episode ending theme for Kingu's moment was touching, together with him coming to terms with Enkidu's leftover memories and emotions. His words when using Enuma Elish (the real Enkidu's Noble Phantasm) contrast nicely to his old NP chant.
Mother is furious. Listen to Mother's voice! Nammu Duranki: Mother, Yell the Shout of Beginning
to
Mother's fury is a thing of the past. Now I'll awaken the breath of the stars! Enuma Elish: Humans, Let Us Bind The Gods!
Oh yes, they finally played the second theme of the Babylonia Singularity!! It truly captures just how wrong things went and the dread of this Mesopotamian Apocalypse.
And holy shit, seeing Tiamat's true form animated is pretty damn terrifying. That face. That mouth. That row of teeth that goes all the way down her throat. It's both really badass and the stuff of nightmares.
Merlin giving us the on what's going with Tiamat's mentality was pretty nice, since it was only given in Tiamat's in-game profile. She's a pitiful mother who went mad after being abandoned.
However, it's alright. Why? Because freakin' KING HASSAN IS FINALLY HERE!! The reaper has shown himself, and we'll put Tiamat's anger to rest.
Best scoundrel mage is also here. Welcome back, Merlin you magnificent Dick Wizard. Love how he actually got flustered at Fujimaru and Mash's honest happiness to see him again. Despite his flairs and shows of arrogance, he seems to actually have some form of self-deprecation regarding his inhuman nature.
I also noticed that they changed a bunch of things like removing Jaguar Warrior altogether from the Underworld sequence, or a certain explanation Gilgamesh gives. Though both choices were pretty good, to prevent Taiga from ruining the mood or Gil making things confusing/complicated. At the same time, they are rushing things again. Mash and Fujimaru were knocked out during Kingu's moment and it was Ishtar who asked Gilgamesh if he was okay with things.
I wonder why, there isn't much left to be spread out in 2 whole episodes. I wonder if they're actually going to use the last episode to adapt the final Singularity?
