“I swear the problem doesn´t lie with me, it lies with every woman I’ve met.
”
-Incredibly Noble, Charming and Exemplary Liege, King Pygmalion.
Hello, my fellow internet denizens and welcome to Akihabara Explosion’s roll thread. I’ll prelude this by saying that yes, this is still a better love story than Twilight.
Now, as an NA-only player, I must admit that everything that will be said here is speculation since I’m not up to date with JP news according to what I filled out in F/GO’s most recent questionnaire, which indubitably contains not a speck of lies.
As pop culture would make you believe, Akihabara is associated with otaku culture, which in turn is associated with maid cafes, whose uniforms may or may not include white frills. Marble and ivory are white, which were the primary materials out of which Ancient Greek sculptures were made of (technically Pygmalion was the king of Cyprus, but cool kids always get their history facts wrong. ).
In conclusion, according to my very profound analysis, it is safe to assume that the next servant to be released will be Galatea, a sculpture from Greek mythology who was brought to life by one of the Twelve Olympians, the goddess (or Titaness according to certain records) of love, Aphrodite.
Yes, the cool auntie with severe nicotine dependence:
Now then folks, here’s an easy math question for y’all. What is the product resulting from combining a smoking hot Goddess, a ton of ivory and one very thirsty and SIMPathetic (symPATHETIC is also a correct way to spell it according to certain scholars) bachelor?
Answer: the antithesis of an organitarian with a very unique sense of style.
Yes, I love the way Riyo drew Galatea, sue me.
As to how Paphos and Metharme came to be from the union of Galatea and Pygmalion, you’ll have the ivory stork to thank.

Disclaimer: Please take into consideration that the schedule will change compared to JP since NA was blessed with an early pity system. Then again, RIP for all of you who will try to roll for any SR in the future

OUT OF STOCK? MAKE SURE TO RESUPPLY AND COME AGAIN!
I want to thank everyone that took the time to bear with me and read this post and I wish that everyone who does decide to roll has fruitful results.
As an added bonus, I had a small discussion with some of the best fashion designers in the world to determine just what is the functionality of Galatea’s ig pants. Here is a graphic representation that is 100% based on reality:
Til’ next time.
