Missed the Three Houses talk. Honestly I don't think there's gonna be a child unit system this time. It's possible I'm wrong, but pretty much the one thing that everyone agrees with about Fates is that the implementation of the child system was really stupid. When it comes to a second generation, there are pretty much two options, and both have been done before. A time skip, which Genealogy of the Holy War did, and time travel, which Awakening did.
"Honeymooning in a pocket dimension where time flows faster to allow you to bypass the nine month wait time before you can pop out some babies, abandon them in said dimension until they're adults in just a few minutes in your own timeline, and then pick them up like a 30-minutes-or-less pizza right in the middle of a war" was clearly not a viable option. Even the Fates child characters, outside of a few exceptions, are nowhere near as popular as Awakening's.
Plus they're already introducing a ton of new features, but a lot of the older features are specifically based off of Shadows of Valentia, the one 3DS game without a child character system. Granted, that's mostly because it's a remake of a game with not only a small cast, but a small cast with tons of canonical pairings already. But Three Houses has even seemingly ditched Pair Up as a mechanic, so Awakening/Fates styled mechanics are pretty much no-shows in general.
So honestly I'm not expecting a child system this time. Paired endings I'm still banking on though, since those are pretty much a series staple now.
As much as I feel like there is the possibility of no children, "Time" is involved apparently, when you look at how the protagonist can manipulate time with the Mila Wheel-like mechanic and whatnot. Knowing the possibility, we could always end up in the future at some point and see our student's kids.
Don't think too much about it. We know it doesn't represent who you are. Have some Moomin to ease you up.
I legit have no idea what happened as I don't follow FGO JP too closely so I'm gonna have to ask what did happen?
Most likely talking about Emiya Alter, where people are ticked for him being lightened, saying his skin was a result of using his magic circuits so much,
DESPITE the fact that his artist even admitted that he was meant to look like a specific kind of prisoner
And Even regretted it later. And it was definitely certified more in the JP version, when Tamamo Cat even calls him "Detroit" Emiya(Over here, Tamamo Cat calls him Edgy Emiya/Edgymiya). Regardless, didn't stop some people from complaining and even using Assassin Emiya as a reason why he shouldn't have been changed.
That being said, there were people who did want Emiya Alter to be lightened/changed. However, some thought the main concern was his lips, as they were still rather whitened even after the recolor. So some people were disappointed when it was just his skin that was lightened and that the lips weren't changed, but as some people pointed that it's possible that they weren't allowed to change his lips, for some reason.
Some people thought he was even lighter than Emiya at one point, but as it was revealed, they actually made his tan the exact same color as regular Emiya, so some people's thoughts did die down once that was cleared.
That said, I don't have a problem with the lightened color, because honestly, if they were thinking about bringing Grand Order to the West when Alter was being made, they should've thought ahead at how people in the West would've reacted. The fact that the artist regretted drawing him like that later is another point against it.
Anyway, they did mention that there is another character being censored. Abigail Williams. Most likely her 3rd Ascension and maybe her 2nd Ascension.

It really doesn't take rocket science to know Why she's being censored(although it furthers the question of why wasn't Assassin Jack the Ripper censored), especially when she's Part Lovecraftian Entity.
