HaXXspetten said: Notice how much better VN adaptations work when they actually follow the pacing of the source material :> Well, the VN is much slower paced (obviously). I don't if it's as much about following the pace as it is including all the important moments and meanings of the VN. Even though a lot of monologues are being cut out, you still feel you're getting the same context and experience as the VN. |

| When the story is interesting I don't mind infodumps, especially when they're told by Kirei's voice actor. I'm sure I could listen to him talking gibberish for hours and remain entertained. # By the way, if Shirou can't provide mana to Saber, , how can she manifest? Because in Fate Zero, |
| 5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |

Yeah, somewhere. 3rd HGW we get to know more about in FHA and FA. 2nd and 1st are a mystery, but we DO, know they epically failed. ESPECIALLY the 1st. |

| KOTOMINE KIREI !!!!!!!!!! :D FInally :) I'm a little down because he won't be able to join the war, but i really hope he plots something and intereferes in it as a judge. I'm really looking forward to it xD Well the production is amazing , but i still prefer the storyline of fate zero as the characters were grown ups so it was way more realistic and they had a deeper goal, nevertheless these main characters have much history (from fate zero). And yeah dafuq was that rin ass-shaking toward shiro :O .... fanservice i guess xD |
| What a glorious info dump. That subtle fan service being Rin's magnificent behind and not so subtle fan-service being the one and only Kirei. Too bad they didn't animate a certain Shirou calling Rin's face weird when he stumbled. |

| God I wish I could erase from my memory everything about F/SN so that i could watch this without knowing all the things that they are foreshadowing. 24min is way too short, another whole week of waiting will be painful T.T LoL'ed With Rin offering tea for Shirou at HIS house. Anyway, I like the pacing and having Rin at my screen all the time, especially with dat ass <3 |

Kiarika said: Why there are so many characters without pupil in this? Is it something important or just the animators being lazy? This must be the most silly question in this thread so far. If you're being serious, it's just Ufotable's style. Whether they are drawing pupils or not doesn't make any difference on the effort that has to be put in an episode. |

No, Nasuverse is all about info dump. This is exactly what was in the VN. The makers assume you know NOTHING about the HGWs |

| Looking cute there Saber :3 Dat Rin ass and fanservice... :3 Freaking Kotomine Kirei is presented this episode. Shirou learned about the Holy Grail War and decided to fight as a master. Dat face that Rin just made... epic... So next episode they're going to fight Berserker eh. |

Kiarika said: Why there are so many characters without pupil in this? Is it something important or just the animators being lazy? Art style decision. Personally, I believe the faces is the only thing DEEN triumphs over Ufotable. The latter just look a bit too long and "derpy" for my tastes. |

| Necessary infodump... not much of anything else but at least next time we can jump straight into action with Illya. An ok episode I guess. Was funny how Kirei was talking about the 'master' who revoked all his command spells :D One thing I have to say though, I think Rin in novel was better, here her sudden tsundere-actions seems bit out of place for this show (idk, maybe it's because Ufo is toning down all other SoL scenes and making overall feel of the anime bit darker that those suddenly stand out so much?) I really wonder how well they do that |

Is it that silly? xD It makes them seem souless and, well, it may be important for the series :P Doesn't it bugs you? Yep, I was kind of joking in the ''lazy'' part, the animation is beautiful in it :D y123y said: Apparently, its what the majority of the fans want, praising the graphics of this anime, etc... I guess we will see more anime characters without pupils in future anime. The new moe Wouldn't it be lovely? :D mirakura said: He means souless eyes.

M3k4toku said: I hope this isn't a spoiler... But I'm curious to see why Rin likes/loves urm.. what's his name. Emiya Shirou? You don't get to know till Heaven's Feel (let's hope it's next autumn or early 2016). For know you can safely presume she feels obliged to him as she said. Though I think it was more than obvious that she said that only becuase she need the excuse not to fight him. In fact, it's Shirou who should be obliged to her. Twice. |
| Pretty much a lot of explanation in regards to the Holy Grail War, Servants, Masters, and their motivation. Even though there are no action in here, it is still amazing so far and introducing Kirei in here was great. As always, the animation and art is still a masterpiece. Damn why did it have to end there. |

ZeroDragon said: Well, I know I remember what happens in UBW but it was some time since I play it so my bad. Guess I will enjoy this adaptation bit more because of that. Hearing all the information in this episode for 6th(?) time I felt like I could just easily skip this episode without any harm (save the Rin's ass and the end). But for newcomers it is great they are explaining everything as they should. Anyway, I wonder if they manages to portray Rin's personality truthfully in next episodes. Have to say Shirou is done well so far. And I wonder if they will make Illya say some notes about previous war in the third episode. |
| Dat reaction of Kirei when he heard Shirou's name. |
| I would seriously love Shaft to animate these SOL scenes... Kirei kind of reminds me of Kaiki from the Monogatari series... That's just me at least. |
"Hi!" |
| Saber being genuinely surprised at Shirou offering a handshake. |
