THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- No OP. Irisviel became the cup. sever battle against the two most enemies. That Berserker talked a bit before being killed by Saber. The vision of Kiritsugu's choice of the cup is interesting, the enemy saw it, too, and Kiritsugu won. Saber caught up to the cup and the servant of priest already arrived. He wanted her to be the bride? She refused, but Kiritsugu appeared and ordered her to destroy the cup! There's ED. And the final ep.'s title is Fate/Zero. I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
Not sure how to feel about this episode coming from a novel reader's perspective. Ok™ |
McRib said: Not sure how to feel about this episode coming from a novel reader's perspective. I feel the same.Saber vs Lancelot was butchered,dream scene was a bit weird but better than looking at it from the sky or something but I think it would be better to have Iri-Angra Mainyu talk instead of "Kiritsugu".Iri+Ilya+Kerry scene although not bad lacked something. The bad thing was that the scenes that were cut were obvious most of the time.I hope they fix it in the Bd |
/a/ is throwing a bitch fit over this episode. Is it really that bad? They had like a million animators working on this episode. The Art of Eight |
Well that started out good but overall was good and the events became pretty dumb :/. Kiritsugu still needed even more development?! Action was nice <img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx1a8gz3tu1qbxqfpo1_500.png" /> |
dankickyou said: /a/ is throwing a bitch fit over this episode. Is it really that bad? They had like a million animators working on this episode. they are probably butthurt for the fact that Kerry wasn't owned by Kirei. Well, my opinion is the following: The episode was 3.5/5 - 4/5, no more. They killed, simply destroyed the Seibah x Berseker scene, which I didn't like at all +1 point for Kerry owning Kirei +1 point for Kerry overall - good decision +1 for Kirei imploring and being almost desperate for having the Grail Kinda ... as I said in the previous (episode 10) thread: they should have made 2 episodes: 1 of them 1 hour another 20 minutes, so that they include more fighting. Also, I changed my opinion about Gil after Fate/Zero (well 1 episode still remains but ...). He is a good candidate for my favourite characters in Fate series now.

Action was nice It wasnt a Kiritsugu development scene.Like I said the problem is that they had "himself" show how the grail would grant his wish.Also the scene with Ilya and Iri would make no sense without it |
Kerry vs Kirei was satisfactory at most parts. But that second block by Kirei of the Contender was disappointing. Where's my whirlwind punch that deflected the bullet and not absorbed it? And wtf happened to the Berserker vs Saber part. Why is is so gimped? Where's my flashbacks and the post battle talk. Dammit, BDs for sure. The Grail part was very satisfying though. Full of despair. Kerry's despair for the outcome of his wish was just...wow. And I knew it would end at that part. Saber's despair at Kerry's last commands. Really, aside from the Berserker vs Saber part, this would have been a perfect episode. Dammit. Last episode next week. And where F/Z ends, F/SN begins, as evident in the preview. Happy Father's Day.

I had high expectations about the berserker/Saber batle and closure and we just got trolled by Ufotable... the rest was just perfect, the grail scene and all. The scream of saber trying to stop the excalibur was really nice too.  |
Ah...*****, only 24 minutes. Oh, well, lets see how this end up. Here's hoping that they at least gave Kariya a proper send off. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Change, change the form of man.

Eternal glory and winning the grail isn't easy...  Intense episode is intense between the battle of the masters. Some pictures: Also, another servant bites the dust: Another fitting day for Father's Day, thanks F/Z :) Modified by Stark700, Jun 16, 2012 10:52 AM  |
It was butchered, indeed, but they managed to contain key points (if I regret something it is lack of Berserkers flashbacks/background/everything and messing up Kirei's contender blocking). *insert BDs prayers* But more than that, for all people who felt unhappy with Irisviel's death by hands of Kirei please enjoy rendition of the scene brought to you by Sehai-kun! Now with Ilya as a bonus to ensure 100% more despair! |

That fight was so beautiful...... |

It was all just a dream right? He didn't kill his own child and Iri? ssjokg said: NNick said: YOU ALL CAN GO _____ yourselves.

just watched it. Quite disappointing, I wanted to taste Saber's tears Goddammit! Berserker's death was the worst part. But, I guess this is a ploy to force us to buy those damn BD's The Art of Eight |

So, he'll destroy the Grail thus saving the world ...from what? Another war? |

dankickyou said: NNick said: It was all just a dream right? He didn't kill his own child and Iri? If he had too, you bet your ass he would kill them. Kerry is fucked up beyond belief. Yeah, that's why i like that dude, just like Kira, he will do anything in order to obtain his goals. |
man the kiritsugu/kirei fight was just fucking win. his epicness in combat from heavens feel is what made me like him as much as i do. that animation was just orgasmic. loved that shit. did not like how they showed no fuckign fight for berserker/saber wtf. pissed me off. seeing his inner dialogue with the grail was good. see why he ordered saber. always thought he knew beforehand what the grail did. poor saber. shirou voice at the preview. cant fucking wait for the finale Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards.  |
Gotta wait till Blu-Ray. I still believe this episode should have been 1 hour long, because Saber vs Berserker didn't have a proper conclusion and Kerry vs Kirei was too short. Also, the dream sequence wasn't bad but after reading that part in the LN I expected more. Liked the ending though; I admit I loved Saber in FSN but in FZ I absolutely dislike her while Gil is more interesting. Her stupid idea of rewriting history with the grail is absolutely disgusting, as Rider said. I'm glad she didn't get the grail for such wish. The one who talked in the preview of the last episode, was Shirou, right? |

Who's Shirou? Maybe this episode wasn't good for people who have watched/read other fate products or whatever, you know, like when Harry Potter fans say books are better than movies. |
Destruction of the grail, love it! Still don't agree with Lancelot as Berserker, that really threw out any love I had for this series. >.< |

NNick said: Who's Shirou? Maybe this episode wasn't good for people who have watched/read other fate products or whatever, you know, like when Harry Potter fans say books are better than movies. Well, I only read the last parts of the LN because I know that a book is way better than a movie or tv show but man, even if you don't read the LN you expect a proper conclusion to Saber vs Berserker. Lancelot was a loyal knight to Arthur/Arthuria and as such they needed more spotlight. Sigh, this show was getting a 10 from me. Now it went to 9. Hopefully they don't butcher the last episode. How come the first episode Ufotable got a 1 hour special while this one, which is quite important, only 24 minutes?; can't understand this. |

NNick said: The Berserker/Saber fight was at the carpark beneath the municipal hall where the Grail is. So she got there by walking. Well, limping because Lancelot beat her up good.How did saber get to the Grail so fast though? And by killing master, shouldn't servant disappear? |
Are you talking about Gilgamesh?; Archer class has a trait called Independent Action. That means they can stay in the world much longer than other servants. Hell, even a heroic spirit with Independent Action A+ can stay always in the world, as long as he doesn't uses a Noble Phantasm. |
NNick said: How did saber get to the Grail so fast though? And by killing master, shouldn't servant disappear? Archer has a skill Independent Action: A, which allows him to remain in the world for even several days after his Master's death. |
