THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
This episode was a complete spoof of the movie Final Destination in which Lancer takes actions to prevent his previous deaths. No OP or ED on this one.

Poor Lancer couldn't save himself in the end :(

I don't usually care for music without singing, but that ending song is badass. And they even put the credits in English.
After looking at who is in charge of the music for this, I can see why I like the ED so much :3

FINAL DEAD LANCER.

This is a pretty odd yet awesome way to do a recap... Or were they even trying to recap at all...?

So now we know the one who really murdered Lancer was Miyako.

At least he has his own ED.

Lancer survived in the end, unless he became Zombie Lancer.

Me want more Grand Prix tier episodes as well.

I find this episode somehow odd and recapping. Not sure what the intention was in this episode, but it was OK I guess. I was expecting a lot of Lancer deaths, but it turned out to be complete opposite. Well at least he got his own episode in this show for his lack of screen times on the other shows where he constantly dies.

Sehai-Kun is just one mean and funny bastard. Seriously, the creepiest character ever made in the Type Moon production. Seriously, knives and plotting evil thoughts. Jesus Christ.

Now it is one episode left to wrap up this show, it has been some priceless episodes like Grand Prix and Berserker's first errand. The Fate\Stay Night franchise was easily the one dominating the show compared to the other Type Moon anime\VN. I'm hoping for another Grand Prix Tier episode to wrap it up!

Sehai-Kun is more evil then Kotomine, who would have guessed that?
Still a funny episode, but not as great as the Grand Prix one unfortunatly...
I hope the last one is atleast as funny...

And that ending theme was beast =O

More Lancer he can't escape fate. Personally I didn't find this episode all that thrilling, but hey Lancer got a day in the limelight. On another note looks like we get the date ep next. Sounds as good as any other way to wrap it up.

and since we still have one more ep, let's hope Lancer manages to stay alive until the end

Final Destination huh? I watched the 5th one (I have never watched or heard of it until I went to watch the 5th one with my friends) in 3D and my mind was nearly traumatized for life from all that right-in-my-face violent and vicious gore. *Shudders* I will never watch anything like that in 3D ever again.

Anyhow, it was okay. It was nice seeing more of Lancer though (:

xD

And yet Lancer died by getting his skull cracked by a thrown, speeding-fast volleyball. Lol.

Not to mention the voice. The voice really adds the underlying creepiness even more to Seihai-kun o_o

*Edit: Wait. I think Lancer is still alive in the end o_o Right?

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

I was wondering myself why Lancer didn't die in episode 2 when in every episode he died. This answers it. An off-camera kill. Ouch.
Seihai-kun is evil but so moe. And voiced by same seiyuu as Sakura? Makes sense.
Now for the long awaited harem end by Shirou and Shiki. Let's see.

ED music rocks.

He needs his own series. Imagine his misadventures in between double trolling of Caren and Kotomine, Ko Gil sending his kid followers to pester him iin his tragic quest to be Bazett's Servant again (and getting trolled by Avenger).

This.
There is like 2 weeks delay in my recent reading list
I randomly bought discount/second hand manga with cute/mysterious cover.

Use Personal Blacklist extension in Chrome if you just want to Google for a series synopsis, without google slapping MAL score in it.

I think it was suggested at the end that Lancer actually survived the volley ball shot. Anyway, I thought this episode was pretty funny.
