All servant flashbacks....

...which I'm not entirely against. That said, if they ruin pacing by putting them in the middle of a fight, I'm going to be kind of upset...again.

Wonder if we'll get any hints or snippets of Bazoople McFraggaREKT


they are probably gonna extend Answer and the "trolling" so it might be a believable for the anime viewers

The main antagonist is Caster(and sort of Archer). She was the main driving point and the main thread.

Just because anime REALLY messed up with her characterization does not change that fact.


It's called Unlimited Blade Works. Not something related to Caster. She's a second hand villain that was only put in UBW cos Nasu scrapped her loli-route.

it really is standard in every way, even the development is extremely cheesy and not very well don.


It has bishies. It's by default a 10/10 anime, no matter how bad it is. Plus Shinoa-best-grill makes every thing worth it.

I know they wont but ufo fate would have been awesome. Thinking about it, ufotable may have done better to animated fate simply because it's easier to adapt and harder to fuck up. The could of have made fate in 1 cour I reckon if nasu rewrote it a bit. They could have then moved onto UBW anime with 24 standard length episodes then do HF movies.


they should have don HF instead of UBW :<

Nasu WOULD re-write it if they decide to do it.

He would re-write it to fit into 2 cours.

Also, it isn't harder to fuck up. It's easy for them to accidently use UBW Seiba's resolution instead of Fate Saber's resolution :I

HF tv show would have been rubbish will all the censorship. Also it doesn't work without the other two routes to build up to it. It's like saying they should have only done a return of the king film.

Because they can't possibly fuck it up any worse than it already is amiritie

And they really could noit have done fate in 1 cour, no, not going to happen. And anyway, Nasu himself would gut Fate and the end result would be totally different than the VN because he's not happy with it at all.

I may have went a bit too far, but the real threat of the route is Goldie. If he truly wanted to, he could destroy Caster faster than he did with Berserker.

Main antagonist for the route? Maybe. I don't really think she's the biggest thread when a blond playboy can walk through your workshop and kill you at the snap of a finger though.

I'm pretty sure that any 14-year-old kid who's making his first short film can edit and cut scenes better than the guys in charge of UBW. Rin+Shirou VS Caster+Kuzuki was hilarious.
Also, that was it for Kuzuki and Caster? Nothing else? Perhaps in the BDs? What were they thinking? Why should I care about their relationship?
The transition from Kuzuki's fucked up past to ecchi Saber was the highlight in the comedy department.
This episode and the Gil vs Herc fight are proof that, in this universe, whenever a character is talking, the rest of the world is frozen.
Still, Archer vs Lancer was the shit.

I think there may be 1 episode too many according to the content in the visual novel. And that's me taking into account the fact that the last episode is 40 minutes long.

His words fit her perfectly. Wait for next episode and you'll understand.

Also, why do people keep underrating teanagers? Most inspirational people got their ideas from childhood, you know.

To me, this is by far the best episode of the 2nd cour. Some people may think it's the worst so far, but the poll doesn't look polarizing at all. Almost 80% of people loved it and less than 3% hated it. That's pretty overwhelming.

Kara no kyoukai is better than stay night anyway and I think KNK just has an edge on fate. The Knk films are also the best anime movies I have seen. It makes it all the more frustrating that they can do something so amazing but this adaptation isn't as good as it could be. If the HF movies are amazing then I think that proves that ufotable should stick to movies. Some may say the chruch skirmish shows how ufotable don't have unlimited budget but it's more like they don't have unlimited time. It isn't just down to budget and the quality of the animation is a lot more down to time and talent involved in the scenes. There is obviously a guy or a few guys who know how to animate scenes such as those in episode 0,1,3 and 17. If that awesome guy is working on archer vs lancer, the animators with less skill or experience have to do the church scene. With the HF movies they have as much time as they need to make sure everything is awesome looking and the directing is correct.

Knk movie 6 was by far the worst movie and that was directed by Miura. He's also the director of the UBW tv series airing. Connect the dots and there lies the problem.

Lancer vs. Archer was amazing, especially when Gae Bolg was piercing through Rho Aius. That was totally badass!

Rin was pretty awesome herself too; owning Caster with her fists. Pretty clever way to catch her off guard.

Caster's last moments with Kuzuki were kind of sad though.. She looked really nice without her hood on.

Very much expected Archer to be a double crosser, but damn he has no mercy! At this point, he seems a bit more evil. :O

Great episode. Good to have Saber back though. Hope to see her in action soon.

Yeah, I do think a lot of things could've been better. However, I believe time was a limiting factor here. Keep in mind that rating it based on how much you liked the episode as an anime isn't the same as comparing it to the visual novel. I believe the good moments far outweigh most things we could complain about - especially for those who haven't read the novel and therefore won't be bothered by nitpicks. Most anime viewers loved this... just like most of us probably loved these scenes in the visual novel.

It was Shinji. He even went to the church to complain about how much Rider sucked. Then, Kirei gave him Gilgamesh. You probably skipped that part on purpose or paid very little attention, there's no way you could have missed it otherwise imo.
