    You are now imagining that same "what... if" scenario as applied to Waver and Rider.

    Another random thought: wonder how much more effective Gay Booty (Gae Buidhe?) would be against Cthulu's Secret Diary, since the latter can apparently heal itself.

    In the same train of thoughts, it's too bad Irisviel isn't Saber's master

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    That doesn't matter. Irisviel will still take care of Saber's needs.. AND Kiritsugu's.

    I think the 1st bullet was also made from Kiritsugu's bones, but since the magic used to defend it was minimal, it also had minimal effect. Kiritsugu himself said that he wanted blob guy to use all his powers to defend the next shot. I believe that meant that the more magic is used to affect that bullet, the more the bullet has an effect on the user. The high level defensive move that blob guy used the 2nd time was what screwed him over.

    Arch - to get rid of that image from your head - Kanyeth could use command seal to order him to rape some mage-woman.



    Upon reviewing our spoiler rules, we have come to the conclusion that information from the source material (novel, in this case) is a classic case of spoiling considering this is a direct and faithful adaptation. Even whited-out text counts (but your consideration for whiting it out is appreciated).

    Unless that woman had A class magic resistance it wouldn't really be rape.

    I've got many moles, but none of mine are pussy magnets.

    moles are brownish/blackish buff, not red or white!

    Wow.. Assassin really is weak. And they really expected the King of Conquerors to show his trump card against that level of attack? So much for supporting Gilgamesh now.. though others may not draw the link between Tohsaka and Kotomine's connection in this.

    Talking about Tohsaka... Rin's Adventure! :3

    Haha. Rin's Adventure. I'm really looking forward to the next week's ep now.

    No wonder the name Emiya might have had a hollow echo to Saber all the way till the 5th war. She's quite incompatible with Kiritsugu. I'm now starting to think Kiritsugu actually bases great many of his actions on fear, which is indeed the opposite to Saber. Of course he's still highly competent for the war, but such an approach has its weaknesses. It's hard to say who exactly is the best master in this war. Tohsaka is a bit disappointing with his continuous scheming and little else. No wonder Gilgamesh is getting tired of him. Luckily Rin didn't take after her dad in that respect.

    It's tough to say for sure now exactly how much it is of Sola getting seduced by that mole, and how much is her own nasty, ambitious personality. Was she only getting married to him for politics? I'd say that was likely. Was she waiting for a chance to usurp him this whole time? That's not as clear, though now with her smitten over her Servant, that might have pushed her over the edge.

    She was obviously lying to Kayneth about using the grail to heal him when she was trying to convince him into giving up his command seals, but after Lancer refused to serve her the same way and declared that his loyalty remains with Kayneth, she looked torn that she might have to change her mind and go through with it after all.

    At least Lancer is recognizing that history appears to be repeating itself. Sadly, that's probably what will get him killed again. Cursed by a woman's geis before, doomed by command seals this time. Too bad. He's really cool.


    I really hope someone decides to sculpt a figurine of the shot where Saber is running Mordred through in the ED. It's a really good composition. I would buy it right away.

    Complete with a diorama base. If they make it, it must be perfect.

    UTW - Episode 10



    ----------------------------








    :3 <----- was on my face the entire time. Subjectively this will have to be my favourite episode yet. Nearly every other episode has been consistently good, but this one gets a bias bonus.

    From the episode title alone last time, I had expected and feared that Rin's Adventure would feature Rin doing something rash and destructive towards her father's plans just because "she wants to help". The direction this episode took managed to keep her childish impulsiveness (but not to the point of repulsiveness), her talent for magic and her cuteness.

    Of all the things she said this episode, her frustrated "Mooh!" was the best.

    edit: and I guess this is +1 to Kotomine's assholery too, since Tokiomi is bound to be backstabbed. Internal sabotage is the only thing that can go wrong in his otherwise perfect orchestration.

    This was a fine episode, even if objectively speaking it couldn't have been anything but service for Rin fans. It didn't exactly advance the bigger plot. I suppose the inevitable betrayal will feel even worse the more Tokiomi's good sides are shown, and further attachment to Rin is created. But if Fate/Zero is forgotten for a moment, this episode actually benefitted Fate/Stay Night. You can certainly see Rin was Rin even all these years ago.

    I'm also really happy it didn't turn out to be Rin inadvertently hampering Tokiomi's plans, not that I'd have expected such from Type-Mooh.

    I thought it was a very good episode in terms of Fate/Zero plot and characterization, even if it was mostly chibi-Rin fanservice. It was a bit of a missed opportunity for Kariya though.

    As mentioned, we saw Tokiomi's nicer sides, despite the fact that he still threw away one of his daughters, knowing what they might do to her. But this ultimately benefited Kariya more. He's lurking around keeping an eye from the gutters. How he knew that Rin was around is anyone's guess, but I imagine he certainly felt her prana when she blew up the bracelet.

    What Kariya should have done is hunt down Caster's master and slaughter him wholesale, earning Kariya that extra command seal. It's something vital for him far more than any of the others, being Berserker's master. But what he did do, is make sure that Rin got back safely to Aoi. Kariya's priorities will always be the safety of Aoi's daughters over himself. It was a small part of this episode, but a good one, since he's been largely ignored since the battle at the docks.

    You know, I was actually expecting Mr. I'm-in-control to save Rin. Totally expected him to plant some sort of alerting device into the Mana Compass. I was a little surprised that he didn't come, but it's all good in the end since it means Rin gets to hide this little blunder from him while still being able to tell him about how she saved her friends should they meet again.

    If Rin's flashback in FSN (the one with her bidding her father goodbye while hugging a spellbook) is any indication, they WILL meet again.

    Yeah, this was a nice side-story episode. I actually thought it tied in really well to the main plot as Rin is a still a child and ran into Caster's master. Though I was assuming she would get caught and her father would come save her initiating a servant battle as well. Nontheless, still a cool story and like others have said, you get more insight on Rin.

    With that aside..... Isn't Rin like 6 or something at this time? The close-up skirt shot I felt was really inappropriate.
