Yeah, but when did he proceed to broadcast that ideal?


If the when part of the argument is what you're refuting, then I don't know. That's not even the aspect of the argument I was supporting.

Well by all means go ahead and refute whichever argument of his that you want. We've been dealing with viewers since the anime aired. Forgive me for not ignoring what you want me to ignore and not only focusing on what you want to focus on.

Nothing's preventing you from refuting his second argument. If it matters that much to you just go ahead and deal with it instead of complaining why someone else isn't doing it with you :p

My problem is that many people went: "Oh, that scene. So he think Shirou is an idiot is ok, even with his nonsensical second argument".

A misquote makes the entire argument nonsensical. Good to know.

I recall Shirou saying he had an issue with people dying. Maybe I wrongfully attributed that to Shirou wanting to save everyone. Regardless, the way he wants go about being a hero or embodying justice, whatever it is, is naive to me. He has a problem with death (understandably so) but people are going to die, for one reason or another.

Yeah, I saw it now. I missed that the first time. So not totally fixated on the idea that he's gonna stop people from dying. He's still gonna try, which is understandable. I just wonder if that translates to not taking unnecessary risks, fighting battles he can't win. The fight with Rider comes to mind. He could've died there.

@Prodigal
Instead of watching back now, I suggest continue watching, since you already get the basic about his mindset.

You will understand him more in ep 9 and ep 11. Then come back to that.

oh haha keep watching and watch that dialogue. a keep attention to those conversations it's gonna be some shit. it's subtle but it's pretty heavy. as the story continues you will see.

this series just like Kara no Kyoukai requires a massive amount of attention UBW is more casual friendly than KNK but it still caries the same type of writing. this series is gonna have a lot of rewatchability because of all the subtleties and things that seemed like throw away lines/scenes. it in no way holds your hand. if you ever decide to read the VN i recommend watching the series again and doing a double take a lot of that missing monologue that people are upset about can be seen in shirou's actions you see shirou though his body language and facial expressions of what was in the VN but it's not outright said. Shirou is a rather difficult character to portray because he is a straight faced character so some of that missing head speak from him would have helped greatly for viewers. Fai wasnt exactly wrong about the anime (or at least the aired ver) being mostly VN reader fanservice.

I saw KnK movies until the fifth ... and in really, I not had understanding about which fucking I were seeing in the three first movies. In the fifth that I finally could apreciate the story.

And seriously, is normal the version BD has 70~90 min of duration for the TV version in animes?

This is one reason I always thought that the TV version was a decoy for the final version (BD version, in the case). And of course, one so vast story as Fate not give to be adapted in the short space that the TV provides (man, had 3 episodes of 1 hour and still was not enough).

sadly there is some context missing from the archer/shirou scenes. the best you can get from it is that shirou doesnt like archer and didnt like the fact that he got saved by archera guy he hates. also shirou avoided a fated blow and the only hint you got that he avoided it rather than got lucky was from the previous episode when shirou said "i can feel your hostility"

More importantly when Shirou says I can survive on my own, he should've also added, as in the vn "more than that I don't want to be a burden to him" because Archer could barely dodge casters beams without being slowed by shirou.

Hope you didn't miss the after credits scene, by the way.

ALso he was being quite reasonable in the "let me go" part since Archer would not be able keep up with Caster while carrying him and would be toasted in seconds, as shown by the scale of damage they do to the ground. And that is Caster barely even trying.


And yeah, Shirou can't stand being saved - in his mind, he already way exceeded the limit allowed by being saved from that fire. Every time a situation puts someone at danger in sake of protecting him, it is like dying.

In the scenes after, Shirou is being very reasonable, because Archer not only let Caster go without even trying, but also suggested murdering whole town to destroy Berserker. And that Rin should be like Caster.

The only sensible reaction to that is "No, Fuck you"

Oh, but I think it was mentioned in this episode that he dodged it purposefully! I don't exactly remember who said it, but I just somehow knew it.

I was told UBW and FSN 2006 were different or different story paths but so far it's identical story wise and I hate it
they're different story paths however the 2006 anime had taken some liberties to make it more action oriented so they took a bunch of content from UBW and shoved it in. story wise you werent even suppose to have seen archer fight outside of the lancer fight until the UBW segments as well as caster.

lol @ Archer... what a fucking coward attacking his ally from behind. And here I thought he was just an asshole in Deen Night, I hate his guts after all. Shirou became the white knight who spout shit like "I wasn't even allied with him in the first place" and Saber thinks he's a good guy after he almost killed her master...
So I dislike Tohsaka for trying to kill Shirou at school, Archer for being an asshole coward, Shirou for being the typical white knight and Saber for actually thinking Archer has any honor in him at all. Nice, I now dislike all of the main characters in this show :3
