| Kiritsugu was the only cool guy in the franchise, for me he is only rivaled by Accelerator from Index. I wonder if Lancer from FSN is so mad because he remembers the events of Zero. I thought servants aren't supposed to keep their memories from previous fights. |
| damn Lancer only wanted a honorful fight in the end |
| just because I’ve gotten weaker, doesn’t mean that you got stronger, does it? |
| I liked Sola-Ui and Diarmuid. RIP. :( Sola-Ui looks a lot like one of the gals from the SMT/Persona series. Karma got Kayneth. Ahem. Hm, I hope we get to find out why Kirei is the way he is. Seeing him giddy/confused about sparing Kariya made me curious. For me Kiritsugu is 'edgy Spike' from Cowboy Bebop. Kir is a lot more jaded than Saber from what I can tell. Interesting dynamic between the two. Great episode, grey moral of sorts and shows war is hell. |
| This is definitely the best episode, I love it |
| It's been practically almost five years since I first watched this series and this is still one of my favourite episodes. The moment where the true light of Kiritsugu's character and motives come to light. The look of sheer anguish on Lancer's face as he realizes he has, once again, been betrayed. The look of horror on Irisviel's face, and the looks of guilt on Saber and even Kayneth's faces as they realize the terrible atrocity they took part of. And of course, one of the best and most well written scenes in the entire series, the ideology clash between Saber and Kirtistugu that defines Fate/Zero as a masterpiece in tragic storytelling. Moments like this are what has made Fate/Zero one of my favourite series, and even to this day I get the same emotions upon rewatching. Truly a 10/10. |

| I really feel bad for Lancer he's just trying to be fair but yet he's being played around,poor guy. I wanted the duel to be ended in a normal fashion but kiritsugu took the shot. Saber is amazing and so beautiful<3. |
 |
| Fuck every main character but lancer,saber,and white haired chick S2 op and ed >>>S1 op and ed 5/5 ep Even tho blonde dude and his fiance are awful people,i still felt sorry when they died.saber's master could have locked them somewhere until the war ended but he decided to go the easy way but i don't blame him at all and i love the irony too : how the blonde dude was killed with the same tactic that he used to kill that priest few minutes before his own death |

| A phenomenal episode. This has to be the best written and produced anime I’ve seen. |
| that throw! The single most marvelous thing in all of anime! How can any human throw a paper scroll so perfectly it lands unfolded in the hands of the receiver? Magnificant! Subarashi! Teacher dude fell victim to the classic blunder! Should be pretty obvious just someone else kills you. Finally stuff actually gets done here. Caster was never really part of the war (would be interesting to see the wish of his master though, he didnt seem to have any) All this pride talk got annoying, sure Lancer and Saber are nice persons, still, they are just spirits. This isnt their personal playground. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| So many irony in 1 episode. And my guess was right, Lancer is killed by Archibald. Well I'm not quite sure of this since Archibald was ordered by Kiritsugu. But at least Archibald was involved in this. |
| He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame. |
| Ok that was epic. Zero mercy whatsoever. A real mop up operation. |
 |
| Kinda hard to like Kiritsugu after this but such is war, pretty stupid one but yeah. Felt bad for Kayneth and Sola although they had it coming, Lancer death was really sad poor guy. He even made Irisviel collapse at the end goddammit Emiya. |
 |
| OMG. GAGGED. Top 10 Anime Betrayals. First off, I am GUTTED that Lancer died. He was my favourite :'( ...and that was a really fucking shitty way to go out. I'm glad he cursed them. Kiritsugu is now top of my list for people that I want to get killed - what a total asshole. All's fair in love and war I guess. But seriously that was the best episode so far even if we lost the best boy. 10/10 |

| Damn. Some character Kiritsugu is. But he's a bit naive |
| Reading the story of Diarmuid Ua Duibhne earlier this week and then watching this episode really hit like a truck. Absolutely love where the series is going, excited to see these last 9 episodes and how the ending came to actually be. |
Have a great day!  |
| Kayneth and Risei. Request? Sola. WTF!!!!!!!!!! Sola's arm!!! Maiya WTF!!!! WTF! She shot up Sola's hand! Kirei brings Kariya home. Kayneth gets a new command spell. OH SHIT! He shot Risei! Lancer sees Sola's hand. Screw you Kayneth for talking to Lancer like that. Saber and Iri arrive. Saber vs Lancer. Lancer is glad to have met Saber. Kiritsugu is pointing the gun at Sola. A Self-Geass scroll? Unbreakable contract? Norikata. 5th descendant. Dem conditions. You better save Sola! Fuck Kayneth for being a scumbag master to Lancer. He didn't deserve any of that. For killing my waifu, Sola, I can't help but feel pissed at Kiritsugu. She didn't have to die. Immediately after Lancer vanished, he stepped to the side and gave Maiya the signal to light them up even though Sola didn't have to die. I accept her hand being chopped off and shot at. She inserted herself into the War and became a part of it once the Command spells appeared on her hand. Thats fair. But they went further than that. This is my 2nd time watching this episode and I'm more fucked up this time than I was the 1st time 9 years ago, and I was fucked up back then. I literally had no words for the rest of the episode once I saw Sola get shot. This is the most GoT episode yet, and the irony is that back in April 2012, they were airing on the same day-ish (time zones). Also, Kiritsugu refuses to talk/conversate TO Saber. Not once has he spoken to Saber. Saber asks him a question. Iri tells him to answer it then he talks to Iri. Not Saber. LMAO Then when he actually says something after Saber something to him, it's like he's talking to audience more than he's talking to her. Farewell, Lancer. You deserved better. RIP Sola. I wish I could have saved you. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| broooooooo 💀💀💀💀 kiritsugu is such a gamer omg |
 |
| Man... I felt so bad for Lancer there. He doesn't deserve something like this. His last wish was a duel with Saber and even that couldn't come to a conclusion. I also loved his character. What a cheap way to go. Kiritsugu is playing the antagonist here. At least, that's what I think it is. |
 |
| Disrespect from Kiritsugu. Apparently he thinks he's doing something good for the world so it's ok tho |
| I'm so excited to learn more about kiritsugu and irisvel's condition! |

| Looking back, I think this episode is what definitely convinced me of F/Z's absolute genius. The way it pits flawed yet compelling ideologies against one another, setting the stage for the despair that failing to meet them brings. |
 |
| Couldn't have had a better title for this episode than "End of Honour". Actually no, I would've call it: "Honour: F*CKING MURDERED". This is the best episode so far, overtaking "Discussing The Grail". I wonder how important the mediator is, apart from providing a safe haven for ex-masters or offering additional command spells. The dude was already kind of biased as he sent everyone after Caster, so maybe his role isn't so important as to cause everything to fall into absolute pandemonium should he die, which he does, by Kayneth. Speaking of, man it kind of pisses me off to see probably the least honourable master (at least from what we see on the surface, perhaps everyone is equally as dishonourable to a degree. As for Ryuunsoke, he was just a crazy dude) paired with the most honourable servant (could also be Saber of course, she sure kept her honour in not using her left hand to honour the duel). You just gotta feel so bad for Lancer, probably the most tragic character in this series. Man just wanted a good fight, and it all ends for him by him killing himself with a command spell from Kayneth, forced to do it, by Kiritsugu. This is kind of the first time where Saber and Kiritsugu actually speak to each other, and it's a discussion about the worth of honour. Saber's willing to be the morally upstanding knight through and through, but Kiritsugu is willing to get blood on his hands with the goal in mind that one day no blood will ever have to be shed again. As far as my memory goes, this is probably the best episode of Fate Zero for me. |

| Now i truly understand why being Lancer is suffering... My love and hate for Kiri grows as usual lmao. |
 |
| What an evil guy bruh! I would punch him in the face many times |
 |
| I don't like the story at all tbh but the action is pretty good. At least one of the mains is gone now. |
