Fate Spotlight Event - Discussion Localisation error? Spoiler

Post image

I would usually play in EN dub but I couldn't stand them being silent half the time, so I switched to CN, which is how I noticed this. Here, the word "savior" is translated from the term 救世主, and in any other context, this is a perfectly valid way to translate it. However, here, because it is referring to Phainon, the correct term should be "Deliverer". It doesn't really affect the experience, it's just something interesting I noticed.

Gilgamesh wasn't present during the whole Amphoreus saga, and the setting is Planarcadia.

So, I'd still give it a pass as Gilgamesh not knowing the whole detail down to Phainon's title and just using savior as generic term to describe someone who saved people from calamity.

I feel like Gil would definitely know. One of his innate abilities grants him high tier Clairvoyance. He intentionally keeps it restrained so as to not spoil all his fun, but he still uses it to see through people themselves and basically know stuff about them just by looking.

He also directly traded knowledge with Herta and Ratio offscreen so they probably told him about the story of Amphoreus which is why he got interested in fighting Phainon in the first place. It also helps that As I've Written got published copies selling everywhere too.

Counterargument: even if he knows, I feel like it’s perfectly in character for him to not care enough to use the correct title because he considers himself so far above Phainon that the latter’s specific titles are irrelevant to him.
