Then why fuck do they have dolphins and green flying shit around a naked Shirou?

What was the symbolism of all that?

I don't understand how this is better than Shirou pulling UBW out of his ass.
You can even excuse it with the whole "he's absorbing knowledge and shit out of Archer".

No clue. Considering it's the exchange of bodily fluids, I'd have just used a blood transfer or something that would actually make sense. Heck, maybe just use it as an excuse to have them kiss or something. Now it's just weird and Rin being awkward for no real reason.

No.
The sex is in the original PC VN released back in 2004. This one, the 'dolphins', is from the 2007 PS2 version, Realta Nua.
Basically, the story changed how things went from the 18+ version to the all-ages version in this part. Ufotable went for the Realta Nua one.

I understand it is a connection between Rin and Shirou but why was Shirou naked is the mystery. The part where his magic circuits where being dosed in mana was great but the part after was just weird.

Oh, subs were already out. So let's see the preview. Saber saying "With caster gone, you shouldn't be here" - So we'll see Assassin and Saber at least speaking. "We'll put an end to your Holy Grail right now!" - So we have at least a confrontation with Rin and Gil. "I'm not good enough to cut through his Noble Phantasms" - Shirou vs Gil's noble phantasms? And him being a nub. "You flithy sham. Learn firsthand the difference between counterfeits and the real thing!" - Gil being Gil. But is that a mistranslatin - shouldn't it be "Faker"? Anyway so Shirou vs Gil at least.

Yes, next episode should be around 5000 times better. But maybe they will all just talk and it will end before anyone fights. I'm half expecting that at this point.

I really enjoyed this episode, it was very fun to watch, best girl Rin was being best girl, Saber development is easily better than the VN UBW version of the novel, Shirou was pretty funny in this episode especially ''Idiot, don't be so rough on the pillows.'' Shinji finally fulfilled his wish, the flashbacks easily beat the pointless sex scene.

I understand why people dislike this episode but I really loved it. It wasn't one of my favorites but I found it as likable as any other episode.

ahahahaha the part where Rin talks german was horrid LOL. I guess the writer just randomly chose some german words, slapped'em together and called it a day. He should've at least double checked the grammar :D Also wtf is "heites wetter" xD Sieg im Freund, der auf eine Reise entfernt geht." ? Oh my god please don't use foreign languages if you are utterly incompetent

Pronounciation was utterly cringeworthy as well...but that's to be expected

But grammar and actually meaning something in the language it is said is irrelevant to spell casting, I believe.

She meant "heiteres Wetter" probably. In Realta Nua, she is actually speaking Japanese. Yes, the German was there too and it's awful (even though it doesn't matter) and I was glad the game didn't make Ueda speak that horrible German. Well, actually there were voice files, but they weren't used.

They were saying "sensou(戦争)" which is war. They're doing their job properly. Blame the original Japanese script.

They aren't really anti-army, though. It's just a term used for AoE.

Oh those pictures. Assassin sure loves those steps.

Anti-Castle NPs are meant for destroying castles? So it only works in 1 place in this setting? Gae Bolg's max targets is 50, an army has only 50 soldiers? It's just the lowest tier of AoE.

It can destroy things that aren't castle. It's the second tier of AoE but just because it's called anti-castle doesn't mean it can't be used against armies... more effectively than anti-army NPs(because it's a tier up)...

Just because it's meant to be effective against one specific thing doesn't mean it can't be used against anything else.

Also your theory is wrong because both Excalibur and Ea have the same number of maximum targets-1000.
