Fate/stay night

[Yukimura]

Nice ep, Rider's Ulti seems pretty lack luster, what capable Servant would let something so big and obvious hit them? Maybe Berserker could just take it, but all the others we've seen would probobly just move. Rider was probobly at a disadvantage fighting in that close quaters environment anyway, she seems to wide places with lots of cover, like what the preview showed. From the preview she should be at her top form whem Saber grinds her into the pavement, maybe she'll whip out the lightning blade again.

Shiro does have talent, we've known that for a while, he just lacks skill. He seems to be tapping deeper into his resevior of power, hopefully by the end he'll have learned something about control and finesse and will be able to tap his potential better.

Something else I noticed, from the way Shiro talked about that fire that happened ten years ago, it sounded like he was more than just a victim. Perhaps he had something to do with what happened, and felt bad about it untl Kiritsugu found him. THis might also explain why Kiritsugu never taught him anything, either fearing what Shiro could do with control over his power, or not knowing anything about the kind of power Shiro actually had.

The move Saber was doing against Assassin took forever, any smart servent would've just rushed her.

How long is Fate Stay Night gonna be? Isn't there 13 magicians? If so that means we still need 6 servents and 7 masters revealed.

[Ryllharu]

There are only 7 masters and 7 servants.

Taken from the Lunar boards. As of the eps that have aired:

<master>/<servant>/<servant's identity>
Shirou / Saber / ???
Rin / Archer / ???
??? / Lancer / Cuchulainn
Shinji / Rider / ???
Ilya / Berserker / Heracles
??? / Caster / ???
??? / Assassin / Sasaki Kojirou

I believe the series will be 26 eps long.

Saber's Noble Phantasm is supposedly incredibly powerful. I'm not sure she was actually charging it, it looked to me like she just took the sword out of the sheath and was preparing an attack, just as Assassin asked. He was also waiting for her to attack. His identity gives away some characteristics. Sasaki Kojirou would feel slighted if she didn't give it her all (he said as much). His pride would make him want to see if he could take the force of her attack. Just like Kojirou's famous fight with Musashi.

[darkshadow]

well "famous" its said that he probably didnt exist, a similar person probably did, but not a sasaki kojirou, he is not even mentioned in musashi's book, and i think there MIGHT be more masters, as they already mixed the different story's together, and btw, when was it revealed that berserker is hercules? wouldnt that be spoiling?
oh and according to ep14's title, we will finally see archer's Noble Phantasm ( find out the title at your own risk of being spoiled )

[Munsu]

Sorry, but you have to get your facts straight... Sasaki Kojiro was a real person, I posted some info about him a couple of pages back when he appeared.

Also, Hercules/Heracles was revealed when he first appeared.

i did get my facts straight, i know he was real, but it is "his" fight with musashi, might not have been his, heck some sceptics even think musashi murdered kojirou, AND that fight isnt mentioned in musashi's book, when i said "didnt exist" i was actually only talking about that "famous" fight
and about berserker, ok must have not heard that or something

[Knives122]

In the ep. Berserker appeared, [edit]little evil eyed happy girl [edit]said that he was the greatest hero in greek mythology.

and the only person I know of like that is Hercales, Hercules in roman mythology.

Edit: my mistake

[Munsu]

That seemed to me like you were talking about the person not the fight like you now are claiming...

But whatever, there's a lot of speculation to what really happened in the supposed fight with Musashi, no one can really know what really went on, the link I had provided for the wikipedea explains some of the possible scenarios to what really happened... There are all sorts of different accounts.

In the ep. Berserker appeared, Rin said that he was the greatest hero in greek mythology.

and the only person I know of like that is Hercales, Hercules in roman mythology.

No, the master of Berserker herself said who he was, with name and all.

[Aeon]

The episode Berserker was revealed IIya said that he was the strongest warrior Hercules. And I dunno why I thought there was 13masters. But who is Caster? I don't remember seeing a servent by that name.

Argh Bud beat it for me.

[Ryllharu]

Caster was the mage type Servant that Rider fought in the same eps that Assassin and Saber were fighting. Caster summoned up a few skeletons that Rider dispatched quite easily before having to retreat after not being able to hit Caster herself.

I don't remember whether or not she's been explictly mentioned as Caster though.

[Aeon]

I thought she was the master for Assassin. I thought the attacks she was using were just basic magic attacks like Rin used in the school. So I guess this means that Shirou and Rin aren't the only masters working togather. Now I wonder who the person in the trees was that was spying on Saber.
