Can you link me that quote? I remember he said that he's talentless and broken, but i don't remember him saying the "Shirou never maturing" part.

9) Miura sees this anime as Shirou's coming-of-age story. Also, from Nasu, Miura got the impression that Shirou is such an unwavering character that you think he never grows or matures.
^implying he has to mature or grow up.


And not is this feature in your personality that do he become in You-know-who?
And for leave this way, he have that grow. Not is this?

Then I apologize but looking for resource to attack me is low.

Fine I apologize, eroge is just usually used as an derogatory term (though yes, it is true) and your post gave off a kind of sarcastic tone which implied that use, which felt slightly hypocritical. Since that was not your intent or meaning i'm sorry, then.

Time to clean up all the spilled salt. This was a good ep, glad to be back into the groove. Now that I see how Miura's going to do this, I think we're in good hands.

I'm liking the way he's handling Shirou's projections fading. Can't wait to see some more reactions.

I'll be making a thread on all live reactions for this season in a bit, and update the link here.

It's self explanatory, he didn't say he can't mature, he said he's so stubborn and is clinging to his ideals that YOU THINK he can never change them.
I fully agree with that point.

And Shirou DOES have to mature and grow up.

And him stumbling around and fucking up sounds more like being a dense idiot than "maturing".

And that is not the Shirou I like and certainly not Shirou/Rin I hold as my top favorite pairing.

Lancer vs Caster on the freeway needs to be a thing. I don't care how ufotable crams it in, it needs to happen.

Solid Premiere if a bit rushed (a curious decision considering they're gonna have to streach stuff out or add in a lot of content to fill in an entire cour).

He is already more mature than his daddy.
And no he does not have to "mature". He is not childish. He just does not have a path.

ASTRO, SPOILER TAGS, NOW

Incorrect, all that says is "he thought he is just an idiot wanting to become a hero at first" (my personal guess is that "at first" means after DEENime), but then he played the VN and realized that that is not the case. Note how he even says "after playing the game" and NOT "after re-playing the game".

Great follow up from the S1 finale imo

The visuals and music did not depelte one bit and the character designs and animation were crisp as usual. The OP and ED are both amazing in every aspect imo

Loved the foreshadowing that Rin's dream had....That entire monologue and animation was amazing....The showdown with Caster in the church was done pretty well and the short fight was pretty cool (Dat Trace On tho)

Was kinda shocked to see that Archer turned on Rin but I have a good feeling that this is all apart of some plan that he and Rin came up with, if it's not then this is going to be even more interesting to see play out lol

The final scene was beautiful...The RinxShirou OTP is taking off :) Their talk that they had was sweet, and Oh?!?!? Did best girl finally figure out who Archer is with this amulet reveal =P

Overall great episode

"Idiot wanting to become a hero" -> wrong
"person with a warped heart" -> right

It's your own interpretation that "idiot" is included in the "right" part, but there is literally no proof aside from you wanting it to be true, just so you can sh*t on Miura again...

Finally it's back. I missed this series even though it was only a few months of waiting. I liked the new OP although the ED was kinda meh but seeing a bit of Archer's past makes up for it. Rin crying and Shirou confessing was pretty much the highlight of the show.

Some of the fate fans' reactions here are amusing. Even a simple fall and they're screaming how it portrayed Shirou as an idiotic protag.

So where are all the people that gave me shit for saying that Souichirou was contradicting himself last season when he said that he didn't care about what caster does and that she could do whatever she wants?

He said that in respect to killing Shirou and Rin. It wasn't a blanket statement that says she can do whatever she wants in every situation.

I'm.....just not seeing it. People trip and fall, Jesus, it doesn't make him a failure. You'd think the way you're making it an issue, he just fell on the ground and failed to get back up and needed to be saved. He gets back up. He saves Rin. The fall is pretty much unnoticeable.

PERCEPTION PROBLEM.

WHen A "badass" and "unique" character trips it is regarded seriously.
When a "generic dense idiot" trips it is regarded as exactly that.

same problem as with taiganapping perception.
If characterization was onpoint till then, even if taiganapping was like that it would be "aww he made a human error" and not "LOLBITCH GOT SABER STOLEN"

That restrained Saber scene was a bit lewd, but I do approve though. She looked extra sensual with that white dress on. :9
Apparently, Caster killed Kirei, but honestly won't be surprised if he makes a comeback soon. He's too fabulous to die.

Archer's betrayal was kinda unexpected, but I still can't hate the guy. He must have a good reason behind betraying Rin. "Siding with the most powerful" is probably a pretext.

Shirou X Rin scene was cute, especially the confession part and her blushing in response with tsundereness. About time they got together officially. :3

Great start! The OP and ED sequences are amazing, but the songs are pretty meh. Oh well..
