HOLY SH**! THAT WAS EPIC!

F-15 vs Airship!

Oh, Ryonosuke died. :( That is first master out of the game. Before we have lost 1 servant (assassin), but I except kill count is going to raise very soon.

Love the OP. And full of interesting bits about Kiritsugu.
That mud...

Gil and his glorious flying NP, Vimanna.
You do not speak to him like that, Tokiomi.

The fodder jets. Poor Kobayashi getting eaten.
And poor Ougi falling to Berserker's hands.

Gil vs. Berserker!
Talk about blowing the budget in that aerial battle.
So much win.

Kariya vs Tokiomi. Lots of talk but no action.

Poor Ryuunosuke. One episode in the second season and then BAM!
Head blown. At least he went out with a smile.
Good touch with Caster's speech there as a followup.

ED song is pretty good. Pains me to see the couple together there when you know of their fate.

Amazing episode. I missed this show so much.

Pretty awesome start for the second part.
Still not a fan of that CGI or whatever exactly it is xD
Seems like I'll have to watch it with German subs always =_=
Yay for headshot :) and those insects are gross..
Next episode Saber's noble phantasm? Can't wait! :D

Solid episode. It wasn't a good "first" episode, but it was a great fourteenth episode. I love the new OP and ED, but I miss the redrawn Servant portraits from the first ED.

But I don't think I can do the Nico Nico stream every week...that was painful to watch.

It's nice to finally continue this series~~~
I really love the Caster scenes they added. I felt something was missing from Ryuunosuke's death after reading it in the novel and that fixed it. Beautiful ;__; Bye-bye adorable.

And Gilgamesh having fun with his UFO. I still can't believe he has that thing. It's just, so weird.

The 3 month wait was worth it. Loved this episode, especially the battle between Gilgamesh and Berserker.

Why that ending Ufotable, why?; you want to make us sad. Would have loved to see an image of kid Ilya with Kiritsugu and Iri though.

And Kalafina always make great songs. Like Sprinter, Lacrimosa, Magia and all others To the Beginning is superb too.

Epic as hell. But I don't like the ED. Why not put at least glimpes of everybody in it like it was with the first one? Instead we get only Kiritsugu and Irisviel... boring.

Tokiomi's attitude towards his family is quite harsh as he puts the obligations in regard to his bloodline above the well-being of his own daughters.
It's just natural that Kariya would feel repelled by it and accuse him of being inhuman. However, due to him having rejected his duty to become a mage once, Tokiomi has lost all respect for him. From his point of view, Kariya is the inhuman one as he couldn't take responsibility for himself.

His attitude reflects his servant's attitude to some point as he acts in a just as condescending way in this case as Gilgamesh towards his competitors.
Both of them calling their respective opponent a "dog" really makes me wish Kariyia and Berserker would emerge as the underdogs from the competition though there's little doubt that their time is limited and their chances to win rather slim.

Wow! Berserker just owned one of those Eagles.

Loved the episode. But they could do with a whole lot better with the death of Ryuunusuke. He should have had a far worse death, for all the evil thing he did.

I am hating Tokiomi more and more now. Poor Rin doesn't even know her father is so evil for what he did to her younger sister. It's kind of a let down that she would never know, as shown in Fate/Stay that she always had this great admiration of her father, that her father is just horrible bastard. Looks like Kirei is going to become Archer's master after all. That's still a hunch though.

I loved the OP. The ending was good, but season 1's ED was better.

Dat OP made me go all emo and I had invisible tears. Dat ED...though I despise Kiritsugu, was fantastic. Great episode. I don't want to watch the rest though. OP/ED made me enough emo as it is.

Doesnt help that I've read the Light Novels....my emoness is understandable!

What a great episode! This episode pretty much redefined epicness.

I am totally enjoying the new OP, and even the ED is pretty good. Gil is so arrogant, but I love how he said only a gardener should kill Caster LOL! Tokiomi is such an evil asshole. His entire speech about Sakura made me rage hard, especially since I've played the HF route. I hope Kariya tears him apart.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

I'm actually in tears because it was SO FREAKING MOTHERING MDFKLJSDAF(#*$WLEKFJDKF GOOD. Holy crap I can't even. I don't even know what I'm typing. Oh my lord.

First of all, Gilgamesh is such a dick. But I still love him... His battle with Berserker was insanely cool, eyegasm much? I'm rooting for Berserker and Kariya, definitely. Kariya is the best Master. However, I'm starting to really like Kiritsugu as well. He's really calm and calculated all of the time. Kotomine seems like too much of a bad guy for me to like him. Tokiomi needs to die in a hole. Why is Lancer so charismatic? Rider kicks ass, as always.

Lastly, can't wait to freaking see Saber's Noble Phantasm. It's gotta kick freaking ass cuz she's the highest Servant class.

Oh, and I'm just going to put it out there that Akira Ishida does an amazing job as Ryuunosuke. He really brought out the utter craziness that Ryuunosuke's character possesses.

Why are people complaining about the CG? I actually thought it was good. You can definitely tell it's CG, but it was really fluid.

AND FRICK. Kalafina's to the beginning I've already replayed multiple times, but it was awesome hearing it with the OP. And I'm going to go ahead and download the ED song, Kiritsugu and Irisviel are adorable in it!

EDIT: Oh, I forgot Kiritsugu freaking cheated on Iri. Never mind I hate him now!

Damn, Kiritsugu suddenly steals the spotlight and leaves a cliffhanger for us in the season's first ep! xD

I seriously can't wait to see how ufotable would pull off on what Saber's Noble Phantasm really works in the next ep.

Is it me or am I the only one who thinks Gilgamesh's chariot looks pretty much like a Protoss Phoenix?! (>o<)]

It truly is worth the wait, the anime of the season for me.
