"Hueeeee!”

What’s this? A new Illya version in a swimsuit which looks suspiciously like a cheerleading outfit, carrying a water hose and a metric ton of magical power? Everyone’s favorite magical girl returns to top form as an Archer with an AoE Quick Noble Phantasm capable of looping, and crit power which would make Miyu cry.

Like her Caster counterpart, Illya is all about the damage, but unlike her counterpart this damage comes from her critical hits as opposed to a nuke of a Noble Phantasm. Both her skills, Legal Shower! B+ and High Pressure! A increase her critical strength up to a whopping 150% on Quick Cards total. This, combined with Skadi shenanigans can have her devastating an enemy in a single card hit. She also has looping potential thanks to the NP gain buff on Summer Vacation! (Child) A+ along with a Quick up on High Pressure, a charge on Legal Shower, and passive generation on Infinite Magical Energy C. These make her a true two-way player, being effective in both challenging quests and farming quests.

On the flip side of things, Illya cannot effectively do both of her specialties at once. High Pressure unfortunately has both Illya’s 3-turn Quick up buff she’d need to loop, and her primary Critical steroids, meaning a Master could not use both boons in a farming situation on the final Wave. She also is rather fragile and will need outside help to survive.

Illya’s versatility cannot be disputed, and she would be a wonderful addition to any Master looking for an AoE Archer to add to their team. Just don’t flip her “weird” switch!

🟢 Strengths

Critical Damage

Illya doesn’t have just one, but two buffs to her Critical damage, with Legal Shower providing a 50% boost to all Critical damage for 3 turns, and High Pressure providing a 100% boost to Quick Critical damage for 1 turn. Even better, High Pressure has a star gathering skill for Illya’s Quick cards. Her classing is also helpful as Archers have higher star gathering than most other classes. When paired up with the right Servants, her Critical hits with Quick cards can hit for more damage than some Noble Phantasms.

NP Gain / Looping

Illya has everything one needs to Quick Loop: An NP gain skill on Summer Vacation, Quick Card up on High Pressure, a 30% charge on Legal Shower, decent hit counts on an AoE Noble Phantasm, a passive 3% NP gain per turn, and just enough cuteness to do it with flair. While she isn’t quite at the Tier 1 level for looping, she can loop with minimal support and a MLB Kaleidoscope and not require a plugsuit swap, or with other NP Gain CEs and a plugsuit. Even without a double Skadi or an Altria Caster setup, she gains more than enough gauge to get off at least 2 Noble Phantasms in three turns.

Child Support

Illya’s Summer Vacation skill has an interesting skill boosting the Attack of child allies by 20%. While not versatile in practice, this skill can provide that little extra boost to Illya’s attack as well as some allies. One should note that Kama is only considered a child in her 1st Ascension and Nursery Rhyme only in her 2nd and 3rd.

🔴 Weaknesses

Tied Skills

When looping, Masters often want to be able to have some decent steroids for the third wave of enemies, which often contains stronger mobs. While Illya would seem perfect for this due to her Critical steroids, it unfortunately cannot work that way as her Quick up skill on High Pressure also activates her 1-turn Quick Star Gather and 100% critical damage buffs. Masters looking to loop would use this turn 1, and lose it by turn 3. Further, Legal Shower provides the Critical damage boost for 3-turns, but when looping one cannot use it until turn 2 as they need the NP charge provided by the skill. As a result, Masters will need to choose between either Critical damage or looping when using her.

Low Durability

Illya cannot take many hits and survive. Her HP is on the lower end of the spectrum for 4-stars, and her only method of recovering it is with Regal Charge’s 3-turn low HP healing skill. To make matters worse, this HP healing skill is chance based, so it can miss at inopportune moments. She does have hard survival in the form of a 1-hit 3-turn invincibility on Summer Vacation, but by being of a 1-hit nature, it’ll go away fast.

Level Up Skill Recommendations

HighSkillIcon
High Pressure! A
Increase own Quick Card effectiveness (3 turns). Increase own Quick Card Star Gathering Rate (1 turn). Increase own Critical Strength (1 turn).
MedSkillIcon
Summer Vacation! (Child) A+
Apply Invincible to self (1 time, 3 turns). Increase own NP Gain (3 turns). Increase ATK for all [Child] Servants (3 turns).
HigherSkillIcon
Legal Shower! B++
Increase own NP Gauge. Increase own Critical Strength (3 turns). 70% Chance to restore 500 HP each turn for self (5 turns).

Illya’s kit centers around both Critical Damage and NP Looping. It is imperative to level all her skills as they all make her what she is.

  • High Pressure A is Illya’s primary steroid, giving her Quick card up, Quick critical gather up, and critical damage up. No matter how a Master wants to use her, this skill is imperative to increasing both her looping capabilities and her Critical capabilities. This skill should be leveled to max (especially when using her for looping) and second.
  • Summer Vacation (Child) A+ serves as an invincibility, a boost to NP gain, and an attack boost to all Child servants (including Illya herself). This is again imperative for looping capabilities, but it is the only skill which is not necessary for Masters using her for Critical damage. Those looking to loop with her should level this to max, and resource-strapped Masters only looking to use her Critical kit can leave it at level 6. Either way, level this skill last as it provides the least utility.
  • Legal Shower B+ is Illya’s charge skill and also her longer-term Critical damage skill. While it also has a small chance-based heal on it, Masters will likely not be using it for that purpose. Masters looking to loop will want to activate this on turn 2 in MLB KScope loops, or turn 3 if using a plugsuit swap. As this is a charge skill which scales with level, it should be leveled to max and first.

🖼️ Craft Essence Recommendations

As has been mentioned, Illya works as either a NP looper or a Critical damage Servant. Her CE selection will depend on what a Master wants to use her for. If a Master wants to use her as a looping Servant, Starting Gauge CEs and Mixed Starting Gauge / NP Gain Rate CEs are her best friend. If a Master wants to use her as a Critical Damage Servant, they’d be best served by Attack Up CEs as she already has significant Critical Damage and faces diminishing returns.

  • Kaleidoscope / The Imaginary Element – With a starting gauge Illya needs much less support to effectively loop. A MLB Kaleidoscope will allow her to loop against all 3-mob waves of Sabers in a Double Skadi setup (with an Mage’s Association Mystic code) so it deserves a special mention.
  • Magical Girl of Sapphire / Little Halloween Devil / Distant Pilgrimage – Like most loopers, Illya benefits from Mixed CEs which boost her NP Gain rate as well as her Starting NP Gauge. However, using one of these will take away her ability to loop without a Chaldea Combat Uniform.
  • Golden Sumo: Boulder Tournament / Code Cast – Illya has a ton of Critical power, and if running her with a Skadi support, plenty of Quick power as well. Increasing her Attack stat will allow for her Critical hits to hit even harder. Of note - Code Cast can only be used in situations where Illya will be on the field for 3 turns or less.

Character Info

Even magical girls want to have fun! At long last, the magical girl takes the opportunity summer provides to cast her trademark identity aside and become a normal schoolgirl. She's more excited than usual, but her IQ and LUK are slightly lower. Basically, she's become a comic relief version of Illya. And while nothing good ever seems to happen to her, she's sure to share both her smile and her tears with us. Ruby has turned into a hose and nozzle, going into "Splash Mode." She may look different, but her ability to flap around on her own and mess with her surroundings remains undiminished. By the way, Illya left the cards in her room.

Profile 1

Height/Weight: 133cm, 29.5kg Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya Region: Fuyuki City, Japan Alignment: Neutral-Summer Gender: Female I just gained a little wei...I mean, I matured a little.

Profile 2

One day, Illya had a realization. "As long as I'm in Chaldea, does it mean it's summer vacation forever!?" Illya's the kind of good girl who meticulously plans out everything and finishes all her summer homework during the first half of summer break, and she is always bored during the latter half of break. And right now Illya finds herself in a situation where that boredom has been extended. "Maybe it's time I start having fun... And does that mean being in a swimsuit...?" Her unexplained desires to let loose grew more and more as days passed. She also realized that a handful of Servants always acted strange every summer. "Perhaps there's a seasonal epidemic that goes around?" ponders Miyu. Well that's scary. "Symptoms are more severe in those who are normally very serious," says Kuro. Please don't scare me like that. "Let's vaccinate you, just in case," suggests Ruby. Okay, that's reassuring. "Wait, Ruby...! What kind of vaccine is this!? I feel hot all over...! My Spirit Origin...it's turning...into summer!" And thus a young girl's Spirit Origin was transformed into a swimsuit.

Profile 3

Regardless of how it happened, when Illya shifted into summer mode (both physically and mentally), her objective switched to wholeheartedly enjoying summer vacation by giving her all to having fun. And so she is sure to play around joyfully no matter where you take her. And along with her rationale, her appetite also has gone off the rails, and so she will often bring up food as a topic of conversation. Basically she'll eat anything and think that everything is delicious. She is absolutely not, in any way, getting fat. This is just a growth spurt. ...I repeat, I am NOT getting fat!

Profile 4

High Pressure!: A A skill that increases the water pressure and discharge from the hose. As a side note, even though it's called water, it's actually a sort of magical energy that Ruby converted to make it look summery, and what comes out of that nozzle may differ from time to time. Summer Vacation! (Child): A+ Elementary school children are powerful, almost invincible during the summer. (They think) they can do anything, and (they think) they have all the time in the world. Legal Shower!: B++ Loaded with Ruby's meticulously-made herb extract (deadly poison). They are not only effective on contact, but they are also potent if inhaled. "Its sophisticated toxicity is not only harmless to Illya, but it has the added bonus of actually raising her concentration!" Its effects are so potent that even the hydra would recoil, but parents should rest assured that they're completely

Profile 5

[Prisma☆Splash Rainbow!] Rank: A NP Type: Anti-Army Range: 10 - 50 Maximum Targets: 30 Young Girl, Become a Rainbow. Fifth grade summer vacation...a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence. ...Or so it should have been. But after having to repeat the so-called invaluable summer for numerous years, Illya finally realizes the true meaning of summer vacation. Everything comes to an end. The moment something starts, the countdown to its end begins as well. Treasures obtained, the emotions that come with them, and even precious memories are bound to disappear one day. But even if you try stopping the clock out of fear of losing things, the treasures will lose their luster. And that's why we cannot stop. We need to continue toward the future even as things come to an end. The ancient treasures become constellations, and the paths we walked become a rainbow that paints the skies... This is the important life lesson she came to learn...though honestly, that kind of awareness should be saved for serious main stories... Either way, Illya converts all these summer memories and bonds into power to transform into "Prisma☆Illya Splash Rainbow!" Her resolve to end summer vacation calls forth another Illya from a different time, and a light bullet that's seven times more dense than normal time density fires at anything stagnant. And she'll try her best again during the new school term.

I've changed! But I'm keeping this towel wrapped around me because it's a little embarrassing...
B-but now I should be all set.
All I have to do is to play until the sun sets!
Ascension 2
Illya: We need to protect ourselves from the sun's rays.
Ruby: I'll go ahead and dispense some sunblock, so please slather yourself with it.
Illya: No, that's creepy!
Ascension 3
Illya: Ummm...
Ruby: What's wrong, Illya? I see you mustered up the courage to try on a mature-looking bikini but ended up wearing a poncho out of embarrassment.
Illya: There's no need to tell the backstory! And...um...well...it's okay! I'm not embarrassed because it's supposed to be a combat outfit! And you, Ruby, seem to have gotten bigger too! Right!?
Ascension 4
Yeah, I'm well aware...
It's only for a brief moment that I can go out and play like this. Time passes by real quick like a shooting star.
The stars were really pretty, and I was really moved when I saw a giant rainbow. I even got to chat a lot with everyone.
Each and every one of these moments will be precious memories to me.
And even if I gradually forget things as I grow older, I'll never forget how much fun today was!
Bond Level 1
Illya: I remember doing an observational diary for morning glories in the first grade.
Ruby: Oh, flowers are nice. I like them.
Illya: Really? Did you grow some flowers yourself?
Ruby: Well, yes....some Devil's Trumpet...

Ruby: Hmmm...then how about doing a report on the growth of a Tree of Emptiness?
Illya: Stop it. That's not funny.
Bond Level 3
To play hard, it's important to stay healthy!
We should do radio calisthenics every morning.
Oh, I made an attendance card, so please give me a stamp!

Illya: Good morning, Master! Have you decided what to do today? No? Well, then...
Here! I've listed everything I've always wanted to do in this summer vacation guide book! Please look through it for reference!
Ruby: Let's see here... "I want to revel in summer love."
Illya: Hey! Don't add weird things to it!
Bond Level 5
(Yawn...) (Gasp!)
I-I wasn't asleep! I'm not falling asleep! I'm fine! No, I'm not forcing myself! I just think it's a waste to lose time by falling asleep.
Every day's just so fun...it's like a dream...
Let's play again...tomorrow...Master...
(Zzzzzz...)
Conversation 1
Come on let's go out, Master! I don't care where!
As long as it's not the lake where the serial killer lurks!
Conversation 2
Illya: Huh? Why did the topic of Master-Servant relationships suddenly spring up?
Ruby: Does the question have sort of an "I'll show you your place!" vibe to it? Yeah, I think that's grounds for a 911 call.
Conversation 3
Illya: My relationship with Master? Hmmm...I guess it's like a relationship between a child and their chaperone...
Ruby: What other kind of answer were they expecting?
Conversation 4 (Chloe von Einzbern)
Illya: Fufufu... Take a look at these, Kuro. Take a look at the overwhelming amount of outfits I can change into! I'm definitely better than you, since you only have one good―ouch! What was that for!? You don't need to smack me!
Ruby: Fellow Archers getting along...how wonderful.
Conversation 5 (Miyu Edelfelt)
Look, Miyu! What do you think of this swimsuit? Huh? I look good in it? Hehe, thanks!
I'll prepare a swimsuit for you too next time! Something...stringy!
No, there's no need to be bashful! It'll be okay! Leave it to me!
Conversation 6 (EMIYA)
I'm going to forget about everything and focus on playing!
...At least that's what I decided to do, but the man in red at the cafeteria's been giving me a stern look...
Okay, I'll try to do it in moderation! I'll play hard, but in an orderly way!
Conversation 7 (Irisviel (Holy Grail), EMIYA (Assassin))
Ruby: Freely enjoying summer vacation away from parents... Mmm, that's every elementary school kid's dream.
Illya: Well, I am enjoying myself...but I don't know about the whole "away from parents" part, since there's plenty of people acting like chaperones here...
Conversation 8 (Abigail Williams, Abigail Williams (Summer))
Illya: I ran into Abby in the cafeteria earlier. I tried to sit next to her to eat, but it was the scary Abby today.
Ruby: Her attitude does differ daily. We need to be especially careful when she's in tentacle mode because it's hard to communicate with her.
Illya: Yeah...and I panicked. But I knew I had to say something, so I blurted out: "takoyaki is delicious, don't you think!?"
She looked really bewildered and used a really big word...sak-ree-ligious...or something. I guess non-Japanese people don't eat octopus.
Conversation 9 (Sessyoin Kiara, Sessyoin Kiara (Moon Cancer))
Illya: H-huh? Was Miss Sessyoin always that big? I thought she was my size...
But then again, the big Sessyoin is wonderful too! I can't put my finger on it, but she gives off the air of an elegant and refined person...like a graceful young lady raised with tender care.
Ruby: Oh that person is actually registered on your "Servant restraining order" list.
Illya: Why!? And what the heck is that list!?
Conversation 10 (Archer of Inferno (Saber))
(Sigh) Tomoe is so cool.
She must be this super famous pro-gamer, seeing how she agile she is with those controllers...
Huh? She's not? She's not a pro-gamer, but a dual-wielding swordmaster?
Ha, that can't be true...!
Likes
Yakisoba...shave ice...watermelon...they all sound good. Oh, and there's one more thing I want to try!
I want to try a bowl of ramen that's served at a beach house that's neither tasty nor bad...a neutral ramen!
Dislikes
Illya: What I dislike? Don't worry about that! I can eat almost anything!
Ruby: I don't think the question was about your taste in food...
About the Holy Grail
Illya: A wish for a Holy Grail, huh? Hmmm...I can't just choose one because there's so many!
Ruby: Illya, you're so greedy.
Illya: I want to make a ton of memories with everyone this summer. So I can't pick just one...
Ruby: I see. You really are greedy, Illya.
During an Event
I think there's a festival going on! Come on, let's go Master!
Birthday
Happy birthday, Master!
Time sure does fly! How many years has it been since we first met...? Huh, me? I'm forever my youthful self! As long as I'm in Chadea, that is!
Summon
Illya: It's the beach!!!
I'm Illya! I'm an Archer, and I brought a swimsuit!
So let me say it again...
We're at the beach!!!
...Wait, we're not at the beach? We're...at a lake...?
Well it doesn't matter where I am as long as I can swim! So let's go make a bunch of fun summer memories!
Ruby: But there was no way for Illya to know that this was just the beginning of a tragic tale...
