| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Unlimited Blade Works, at least ! I hope the second half of the episodes is less boring than the first. This episode gave us enough hints that Archer is |
| Its way better but still the 1st half wasnt boring. |
 |
| In the first half they introduce a few Masters and Servants, tell the rules and show us a few fights. The importance of the rest is questionnable. 12 episodes for this ? The length of two "long" movies ? Thanks to Saber, I saw more than 3 episodes : she saves the first half by her sole presence. |
| Great episode. They have 12 episodes to wrap things up, so I'm hoping that things turn out to be pretty interesting. |
 Felli disapproves of this thread. |
| The best episode! Unlimited Blade Works was great but I hated that Archer lost. He could of just killed of Berserker by killing his master but didnt and he didnt even try to kill shiro. Well, this episode was still pure epicness! |
| "Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise" |
| Yea Archer is fucking sweet I love his weapons I'm insanely pissed that he died though -_- |
  |
| lolz, when I saw this ep and archer died I thought all was lost... |
| "Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise" |
| even though archer was that strong still he didn't beat berserker, too bad... |
 |
| Awesome Episode, Berserker is so strong who the hell can beat him!? |
| "Every man shall reap what he has sown, from the highest lord to the lowest gutter rat. And some will lose more than the tips off their fingers, I promise you. They have made my kingdom bleed, and I do not forget that" |
Zatoichi said: Awesome Episode, Berserker is so strong who the hell can beat him!? Monkey D. Luffy, that's who!! LOL Anyway, Archer's pretty awesome :3 |
| Great episode. It might've been a bit strange if I hadn't played the chant in the VN, but since I did, I felt like the episode was reeking epic. I really wanted this part to be in the VN, but the anime took care of the problem. The chant still sends shivers down my spine. |
| Ineed its awesome :) |
|
| OMG THATS IT?! ARCHER'S DEAD?! T-T WTFWTFWTFWTF. AHHHHHHHHHHH . ._. |
 |
| Ohhhh quite unexpected. This must be the best shonen battle anime i've ever seen ;o |
| "steel is my body fire is my blood" Omg do you know someone cooler than him I'm a little bit sad that Archer lost after such a great performance. ***** Berserker ; ( In his first appearance Berserker seemed a bit bigger then in ep 14. |

| Even the Engrish couldn't ruin the melodramatic awesomeness of Archer's final performance. I do wonder what he meant by "I thought I got rid of it." I suppose he could simply mean that he thought his last big attack would have killed berserker, but I suspect Archer may have meant that his time with Rin and Shirou might have rekindled his more human emotions. His giving advice to Shirou on multiple occasions as well as sacrificing himself heroically in a rescue mission, which he didn't really object to (he voiced his objections, but he went without Rin having to use the forced command) would seem to support that idea. |

| "I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by." Douglas Adams |
| Amazing episode! The battle between Berserker and Archer was very moving! I'm so upset that Archer lost but that Unlimited Blade Works was woooowwww. What a move! |
| Wow that was pretty damn amazing. One of the best battles I ever seen hands down. His ability and the unlimited blade works kinda reminds me of Rakan from mahou sensei negima's pactio, the hero with a thousand faces. Looks like Heracles is just too dam imba. It will take a true weapon to kill a hero, looks like its time for some Excalibur action. |
| As I recall illya said berserker dies to archer 5 times but all i saw was 4 kills: Once by Calabolg II Once by the 2 pairs of KnB exploding onto berserker, the first pair dont count since they just bounced off berserker. Once by Crane Wing Overedge and once by UBW. Tell me if im wrong |
Soulshade said: Wrong! Caladbolg II was defelected and made that hole in the roof... KnB are C rank if I am correct and anything under B+ doesn't penatrate Berserker's God Hand... Not shure about KnB Overedge since that's an anime only thing but since using that messed up one of his arms I would assume that it didn't take a life either...As I recall illya said berserker dies to archer 5 times but all i saw was 4 kills: Once by Calabolg II Once by the 2 pairs of KnB exploding onto berserker, the first pair dont count since they just bounced off berserker. Once by Crane Wing Overedge and once by UBW. Tell me if im wrong At the end of the fight Berserker has burns wich I think took one life and a few blades in him. I think those blades took the remaining lives.... So I think he took the rest of his lives with that. please note that in the VN Archer killed Berserker six times without UWB. |
| "Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise" |
| ; ~ ; Archer died. |
| The best character got killed? :E |
 |
| This is depressing... |
 |
| The best episode, sucks that the most tolerable character was killed but he was mercking that foo Berserker for a while. Archer didn't get enough screen time. |
| Damn it, I was hoping that Archer would beat the crap outta Berserker but I guess not. :( Good episode though! :D |
| Perfect Episode!! |
  |
| RIP Prince of GAR (Kamina being the King and Guts being the God XD) |
 |
| Epic! Best episode so far! I loved the way Archer spoke english. Awesome indeed. Too bad he's gone though. I shall miss him D: |
| Best fight thus far, IMO. So berserker gets regenerative powers too? how gay, hes so overpowered =/ Archer at least put up a good fight against a opponent like that. |

Silverhammer said: I do wonder what he meant by "I thought I got rid of it." He hates Shirou Emiya (himself), so when he has those flashbacks he criticizes himself for still having sentimental feelings for what he once was. |
| hick! What an epic chapter... Epic chapter is epic chapter... Archer is Shirou in the future... What's this VN talk you're talking about huh? I don't understand what you mean but that has to be super important since you mention it many times... Well my thoughts for this episode... The battle between Berserker and Archer was definitely amazing... who would thought Archer would stand against so many hits from Berserker... And also he dodge a lot.... But since the beginning we could see that the he would lose... Afterall that first swing of Berserkerk's fugly Sword.... Archer's `Special moves were amazing... But definitely Ultimate Blade IronWorks was the best.... Yet he used his best move and got killed... I can't actually believe that... well that happens... since we have already seen such things with the good old Rider... RIP Archer... and now what will happen... Signs, Green |

| Pretty epic fight. Who new Archer was so powerful. |
     |
| rip archer |
 |
| That was indeed one of the best fight scene I've ever seen. ..... Shirou, that useless kid will eventually turn into Archer... Great fight. Just great. Though the only confusion is that why he's call Archer... he only use bow/arrow once. |

| Let the guy die for heaven's sake. Going through all this trouble to rescue him |
 |
| Archer R.I.P It's a bummer indeed... |
 |
| Actually it seems he did beat him, and 5 times at that o.o...does this mean berserker is immortal or some crap and can keep coming back? thats friggin BS!! and my favourite character has died already!? NUUUU i was so sad when the new ED rolled in... T_T |
 |
| So Archer is no more....I wonder what Tohsaka is going to do now. |
| Archer is... Dead!? :/ |
| I wasn't expecting that. =/ & Yeah, this episode did give hints that Archer was a future, more bad ass and less annoying, version of Shirou. So what happens to Rin now? Hm. |
| I didn't expect archer to die. That was really surprising. The battle itself wasn't that great though. I thought it would be better. |
| Watching this series after playing through the VN. Nice that they threw in some UBW in the Fate story. haha, so much I want to say but all would just be spoilers |

| Tohsaka is kinda screwed without a Servant...Oh yeah, and none of this would have happened if Shirou hadn't been careless. |
