Zulkir said: chat77 said: YggdrasilTM said: Nasu from his blog. He wrote that he retooled Caster's Master from scratch, and he also talks about how he was a lot more selfish during the second season's production compared to the first, and instead of trying to stick to just getting the script and touching it up he kept writing scenes himself and insisting that ufotable stick it in somewhere, including stuff he hadn't been able to put in the original FSN. So we will get the history of other servants?I would love to have one of Lancer F/HA In all of meanings of "history of Lancer" I know...but they are trying to make it an ensemble cast?So maybe.. |

chat77 said: Jsmithmim said: This grail war is so messed up...kirei having a servent,even allowing gilgamesh to participate where clearly he hasn't been summoned by grail this time..this is clearly out of the rulebook.. 5th HGW is technically about breaking the rules,tbh.. Yeah it really is. There hasn't been a conventional grail war since the 3rd war with the summoning of avenger |

My reaction on this information: Nasu's written scene: Awesomeness. Nasu insisting on putting in details that weren't in the VN: Awesomeness. Prioritizing this scene more than Medea's historical background: Eh? Why? I mean the scene itself wasn't bad by any stretch of the imagination, but I feel it could've been substituted with something more effective already existing in the VN. It's good from a writer perspective (for a VN), it's not from a direction perspective (for an anime). Am i making sense? |

Eh, buh. Here the page, if someone can read moonrunes. こんにちは。 竜の逸話があるからドラゴンサモンが宝具と信じてサーヴァントを喚んだところ、 「すみません……喚べるけど制御できないので竜とか使いません…… あ、でもこの痛そうな短剣とか、どうでしょう?」 とか言われてイラッときてしまったイケメンマスター、アトラムです。 嘘です。 という訳で待望の#14、新規シーンましましのFateでした。 一期は脚本をいただいてから全台詞に手を入れさせてもらうのが基本的な監修方針でしたが、 二期は「このシーン任せて」「このシーンもこちらで」と、 ゲームで表現できなかったシーンをまるって書かせてもらう事も多かったのです。 その中でも#14、#15はかなりのワガママを聞いてもらい、 こちらのやりたい事を受け入れてもらえました。 #14のアトラムは監督に「五分だけの追加でキャスターのマスターの話をいれたい」と振られたので 「よーし、パパ一からアレンジしちゃうぞー。なに、ゲーム版では中肉中背の中年とか書かれていた? うん、それはきっと幻なんだ。気にしてはいけない。キミ、啓蒙をもっと高めたまえよ……脳内に瞳を作りたまえよ……そう……一緒にヤーナムで交信しなさいよ……」 とばかりに調子にのったら、その、なんだ。見ての通りの惨状になってしまってな……。 でも分かってほしい。 分刻みでシーンをはかる脚本家の固有スキルをきのこが持ってるワケねーのである。 かくして石油王アトラムさんが急遽参戦したワケですが、ufoが凄いのはこの後です。 「22分では収まらないのでこのシーンはほぼカットします。けど重要なので作りましょう」 「?? いや、書き直せ、とかじゃなくて? だって入らないんでしょ?」 「そこは編集でなんとかできます」 とホントに作っちゃったところだよー! 先行上映会ではフルバージョンでしたが、 放映版ではアトラムとキャスターの初対面の会話、 アーチャーとキャスターの言葉のジャブの打ち合い等がカットされています。 なのに話は通じるという不思議……これが22分で戦うアニメ業界か……すげえな。 カットされた部分はブルーレイに収録されるそうなので、そちらもよろしくお願いします。 福島さん演技のアトラムがすごくいいんだ……一話でコロコロするには惜しいぐらいにさ…… |

Am i misunderstanding something, or did Nasu say that a a scene with Archer and Caster was cut for the TV version? CookingPriest said: Those 12 min could have been cut to 11 tho. BD Special. I'd say 7 minutes is really their limit. It's already more than the entirety of the added runtime for the first cour. |

More than anything, this episode confused me. I didn't really understand what Kirei and Caster's douchebag master were talking about in the chapel. And I didn't understand why Lancer showed up in the elevator. It also doesn't help that Caster's flashback scene jumping from the present to the past(and vice-versa) was a little jarring. Speaking of Lancer, we still don't even know who his master is. That also confuses me. Other than that, all the stuff with Shinji's servant was great. Of course it had to end on that huge cliffhanger... Oh, well. I'm excited for next week's episode. |

EDIT: And the scene skipping didn't have much time in between. It was in the woods after killing her master --> she kills him --> back in the woods to find Kuzuki. Like a flashback in a flashback. |

Nothing about 7 minutes there, but Nasu says two things: 1) Caster's summoning and a 'exchange of word-jabs' between Archer and Caster were cut 2) It "looks like" cut scenes will be added back to the BD version. |

Since she has a rare knowledge about dragons, I believed that the Servant will have dragon summoning as a Noble Phantasm, but when I summoned her, she told me "I am sorry, I can summon them, but cannot control, so I cannot use dragons... But, how about this painful-looking dagger?" which got me, handsome Master Atram, really mad. lol Edit: sorry for double-posting.

The 4th HGW was only slightly more normal than this one. Not by much though. I mean... aside from the traditional abnormality of there being more than 1 HGW at all, we have: The overseer working actively aiding a master The overseer getting killed by a master partway through The grail getting nuked by Excalibur and blowing it's hot, sticky load all over Fuyuki Among many other things... |

It's better explained properly since Kuzuki is like the 2nd or 3rd non-magus in the series, and the viewers might questions why the original master even throwed away a servant as good as Caster anyway. The mana extraction machine is pretty nice touch since Ufo wasn't going to animate Fate route. But still, the bright laboratory full of gadgets and how the children dissolve "just like that" makes the atmosphere of that scene feels pretty underwhelming from what it supposed to be. Anyway, it's nice to see where Caster's original master has gone until now and what Medea was capable to do. |

One line sufficed. Everything else was uneeded and pointless. Master filler could have been compressed to 3 minutes montage from Medea. And thanks to all the alterations(Rin fightng medea equally.............) and outright removal(Shirou analyzing Medea's strength during Temple fight, Rin's true magic explanations, etc), no we do not get to see what Medea is capable off.

Oi. いろいろなゲーム、小説がアニメ化されてはや二十年弱。 いまさら言うまでもありませんが、原作とアニメは別物です。違うジャンルの娯楽です。 一つの目的地に向かって空路と海路で旅するぐらい違うものなのです。 だから同じ読後感、同じ高ぶりを求めるのは前提が間違いです。 アニメ版UBWはゲームでしか表現できない言葉の積み重ねを廃したかわりに、 映像と演出、時間のコントロールで物語の裏側を表現しています。 |

And thanks to all the alterations(Rin fightng medea equally.............) and outright removal(Shirou analyzing Medea's strength during Temple fight, Rin's true magic explanations, etc), no we do not get to see what Medea is capable off. Mindfucking a random nobody is not really impressive. Oi. いろいろなゲーム、小説がアニメ化されてはや二十年弱。 いまさら言うまでもありませんが、原作とアニメは別物です。違うジャンルの娯楽です。 一つの目的地に向かって空路と海路で旅するぐらい違うものなのです。 だから同じ読後感、同じ高ぶりを求めるのは前提が間違いです。 アニメ版UBWはゲームでしか表現できない言葉の積み重ねを廃したかわりに、 映像と演出、時間のコントロールで物語の裏側を表現しています。 I somehow agree with both this, and that anime could still be made better even in anime terms (especially the OST and its usage). It is still an awesome adaptation though. |

And the VN just said he used his Command Spells over "meaningless" things and didn't explain further. So how the anime, after 10 years people waiting, can fix this? Ufo has chosen the "show, not tell" way is better for the anime. This option is actually good, since the VN will have the role to "tell" (e.g. for Shirou’s narrations) so both media can still sell in the future. - For Rin fighting Medea equally, I also doubt she will succeed at her attempt, so glad Archer stopped it, despite his choice. VN might have this scene filled with narration, but anime should show something, or else Rin would look useless, moreover how Rin tried to ran away after Archer declared his choice in VN and being ambushed by Kuzuki. - What was Shirou's analysis about her in the Temple fight again? I forgot. Archer's "A master whose servant more powerful than him/her should be wary"? It still don't tell more about Medea’s master. Just sounds like a flattering comment. - For machines, each Magus have their own secret specialty and Extra which was only some decades after that has more machines anyway. |

fst said: Forgetfulness said: Insertanamehere said: Forgetfulness said: On a side note, what's with Goldie's line "Shall we reenact a battle of legend here?" or however it goes Those two people have never fought before in the HGW or in actual legend, right? So is it just bad subbing? What's wrong with the line? He never says "Shall we reenact our battle out of legend" he just says "a battle out of legend". Meaning one impressive enough to go down in legends. It's just him being dramatic in his usual style. Cause reenact implies that it already happened before? I wish I knew enough japanese to understand the latter half of the sentence. He definitely says something about a battle out of legend/myth here. The latter half I had to go look up. He says "saigen", which according to this dictionary can be reappearance; reproduction; return; revival. And then I think the rest of the sentence is just phrasing it into a question. So, I think he does actually say re-enact. Which... yea. David and Goliath. Like, it fits so perfectly. |

so much bullshit meishika said: -A few lines might not capture it properly in the anime, and leaves the fans unsatisfied on why the master threw a servant as capable as her. Some people even will say that the anime butchered the backstory. It is perfectly explained and I am pretty sure nobody should care about that master.

And the VN just said he used his Command Spells over "meaningless" things and didn't explain further. So how the anime, after 10 years people waiting, can fix this?

This option is actually good, since the VN will have the role to "tell" (e.g. for Shirou’s narrations) so both media can still sell in the future. Show Medea tricking the paranoid asshole into using command spells for bullshit. 4-5 minutes tops if you need. - For Rin fighting Medea equally, I also doubt she will succeed at her attempt, so glad Archer stopped it, despite his choice. VN might have this scene filled with narration, but anime should show something, or else Rin would look useless, moreover how Rin tried to ran away after Archer declared his choice in VN and being ambushed by Kuzuki. Against Caster Rin HAS TO LOOK USELESS. Caster should be able to facetank gandrs or anything Rin throws beyond top notch shit she has yet to use. That IS the difference between them. Rin already was shown to be way too capable in this adaptation with most of her flaws removed. - What was Shirou's analysis about her in the Temple fight again? I forgot. Archer's "A master whose servant more powerful than him/her should be wary"? It still don't tell more about Medea’s master. Just sounds like a flattering comment. Nope. Shirou analysed Caster's spellcasting comparing it to a housing - modern magic looks like shoddy mudflats to Caster and basic few beams Caster spams like crazy would take best of best present day magi shitload of time of chanting and years of mana to do. That whole dialogue NOT ONLY shows Shirou as perceptive and capable but also showcases Caster as a threat. Add the true magic comment and she is not someone ot be triffled with. Let's not forget that Archer should not have had such an easy time against her in the temple either - For machines, each Magus have their own secret specialty and Extra which was only some decades after that has more machines anyway. Magic and technology does not mix. PERIOD. Extra does not have "magic". This filler master makes Kiritsugu, an outcast weirdo because of guns |

You are thinking about old conservative families, but Caster's Master was a newbie of the Association (even if maybe the ritual of his familiy was old), probably ignoring many of the usual traditions. |

And yet, purists always get bent out of shape about it. |
