fusionist said: Unrelated to this week's episode but it's still bothering me: Is there *any* sort of possible way to explain Archer being able to use UBW when they straight up said *in that episode* that he was out of mana? He commented on how even without mana he was too strong for Shirou. And then later he commented on how Shirou can't materialize any more blades because he is out of mana. But Archer can cast UBW and he materializes swords at some point. So I know this was already discussed to be a plot hole, but is it really this gigantic of a plot hole? Am I missing something? Because that's huge and makes no sense. My mind is desperately searching for a way to make sense of it. Get ready for the bullshit they're going to pull in those last few episodes, this is nothing. But Rin's tsundere outbursts were unpleasant (why adapt her into something so generic?) It was just as bad in the VN, but at least I could click fast to get over with it asap, while I had to cringe through the entire scene in the anime. |

Also as for the episode, just what I expected tbh. UFO kinda dicks for the huge bait at the start though, "CAN'T TELL YOU THE PLAN HERE"... insane blushing... literally the build up SCREAMED sex. Then boom dolphins GG UFO. And couldn't we have gotten the saber moments in this episode (seeing as how we basically just went over them again...) rather than in the middle of Archer vs Shirou. Good stuff: Shinji rescuing an episode again. The high jump scene was actually pretty awesome and doesn't need to be explained I think. |

I am not sure but I think that was a mistranslation that should ment something along the lines of "he is leaking mana", I may be wrong though. |

Hyack said: "Servants can only enter through it's maingate." Why did Gilgamesh not kill Assassin then? A) He is dead. b) he hide his presence. |
Hyack said: "Servants can only enter through it's maingate." Why did Gilgamesh not kill Assassin then? It will be made clear, hopefully. |

Hyack said: "Servants can only enter through it's maingate." Why did Gilgamesh not kill Assassin then? Assassin class has presence concealment. Or he's dead. |
Hyack said: "Servants can only enter through it's maingate." If they have Independent Action they can probably take a detour. Gil's IA is the highest rank iirc. |

| so this is what the anime was building up to? wow i feel like i wasted my time i shoulda just watched fate zero and finish off this horrid franchise |
MetaSonic said: sadfacelv said: Pff, even in Deens" F/SN , they kept the 2nd H-scene;/ Inaccurate, they didn't keep the H-Scene. They kept the kiss. Well they kept the kiss, but next morning they woke up in the same room and Saber was fixing her clothes and said that she was fully charged or smth -_- They could at least do something like that;/ |

His complaints are so full of hyperbole that they can't be taken seriously. Every single thing? Really? You can make the argument that it's been hit or miss, but to argue that everything has been a miss is completely childish. But should we expect any different at this point? You're only interested in venting your disappointment. Who cares if it makes any actual sense - as long as you feel better by saying it. |
I am the Priest of my church Yuetsu is my body, and wine is my blood I have trolled over a thousand users Unknown to sympathy, nor known to apathy Withstood Shirou to eat Mapo Tofu Yet, my question will never be answered So as I rejoice, Unlimited Kirei Works! |
Insertanamehere said: "Yes, I have an option between sex with the guy I fell in love with and am essentially in a relationship with and giving up centuries of my family's research and knowledge, the greatest inheritance handed down from my ancestors, and I'm too embarrassed about having sex so I'll give up a significant portion of my magecraft and power instead, even though I said all the 'it's my most important fight' stuff!"-Rin I mean really now You might as well disregard the existence of any sex-related solutions when it comes to the all ages approach. I mean, isn't that kinda obvious? Sure, it would be nice for them to get closer and have a little more romance. That makes a lot of sense given everything that happened. But one thing is for certain, that doesn't need to be motivated by someone's need for mana. Unfortunately, Nasu tied both things together in the novel and here as well. They still could have had a more romantic scene, so to speak, after everything was said and done. But they've already had quite a bit of non sexual development throughout the series anyway. Shintai said: Considering Nasu himself has made an effort to move away from sex scenes for years now, why the fuck are people so surprised that we didn't get one? Because it's a porn game! :P |

You know exactly that he is always "objectively right"! Like with Rin kicking Shirou in EP13. He said it happend, so it happened! You may not disagree! |

| I don't know how it was in the VN but I personally thought seeing some of Rin's personal memories is better than some half-assed sex scene. |
| Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime? |
| Think there's any hope they will kiss in the finale? I mean, there's still 3 episode left and the last one is a double episode. |
| although I knew they were supposed to be dolphins, my first impression of them were that they looked like mutant sperm. anyway, I thought it was a good episode. |

The events in here should not have taken the whole episode anyway, or at least not the way they did. You should give F/Z a try. You might enjoy it. No childish high school setting, most characters aren't virgin, people have actual guns (who needs swords anyway?), everybody smokes, etc. Great stuff! |

CookingPriest said: I expect a lot of Rin's leg shots, Rin blushing and raging, as well as a lot of explosions and fireworks while animators fall asleep and forget to move the camera or do any sort of choreography. Insertanamehere said: Read Realta Nua h-alt version of the scene. Again. Explanation should be there. Or are you telling me that the ONLY times Ufo will stick to VN canon is when they should NOT? The high jumps scene was pretty clear as it was, I don't know what episode you watched. |
| Wtf was with the green dolphins. Very slow pace not much happened and another bad episode Rin's Tsunderness was annoying as well. I haven't read the visual novel so tbh I don't know why the fuck they need UBW so much as the only thing that it seems to do in the anime is waste mana, can someone tell me cause I fell it should be explained by now. I was expecting the transfer thing to be about sex tbh considering it's a porn game adaptation, i was at least expecting a kiss to happening but not even that. Boring episode. |

Because if somehow Shirou can bring Gil into UBW he can counter Gate of Babylon. Gil, as we saw during his fight with Berserker, can summon dozens of weapons at one time form multiple angles. In UBW Shirou should be able to counter it as we saw Archer summon his weapons the last few episodes. And Archer said that it's up to Shirou now knowing that UBW is a good counter to GoB. Now the only question is how to get close enough to Gil.... |

Insertanamehere said: FlamepriesT said: Did it? I don't even remember that. Care to say when that happened in spoiler tags before we go back to the topic at hand? :P That would have been good for the romance if they did it right, yeah. I couldn't care less about the mana transfer stuff though. But Shirou and Rin are pretty close, so I don't think anything is necessarily missing. It's pretty clear that they're in a relationship, even if it's an awkward one. To be honest, having sex right there without an excuse probably would have been a slightly unnatural development. Not that sex would have been necessary to show a little more bonding anyway, but then again their romance in F/SN doesn't really demand more than what we already have imo. Kinda subjective. |

We have no idea about how UBW works, except if we use knowledge from the VN. |

| man that OST was great.... that's all i have to say for this ep. everything there could have been done in half the time or less. also: Shintai said: Considering Nasu himself has made an effort to move away from sex scenes for years now, why the fuck are people so surprised that we didn't get one? |
| all other archers pale in comparison. |
Insertanamehere said: Insertanamehere said: Swords inside UBW do not need to be projected and can just be summoned and controlled from within, and are stronger than regular protections, and it's caster is also stronger within it. Anime onlies were bound to ask that question if we consider how UBW was portrayed in this anime when Archer used it back in the church. |

| In fairness, the only reason I wanted the sex scene was to see the resulting ANN review. mira-nyan said: Insertanamehere said: Is....is this legit? Wow, Kerry a playah. Don't listen to him, Shirou! I don't know if it says they did the dirty there but they definitely have at other times. |

The bolded part is from the VN, there's no difference between the projecting/summoning time in the anime, and there's no hint about it in the dialogue. The part about restricting Gil to UBW isn't even mentioned in the episode, even though they spend at least 5 minutes formulating strategies. |
