And after watching FZ, it doesn't matter if I watch 2006 FSN or UBW, because both are just alternative routes after the FZ. The only thing I wish I haven't watched is UBW movie, that was... pretty awful. It doesn't matter as much with UBW, but there are minor things in there. Like for example, saying Saber didn't develop after FZ is kind of backwards, since FZ wasn't even written when FSN came out, so there was no need to have her already developed when FSN started. | ||

how does + Show Spoiler + archer obtain his twin swords originally if he (shirou) has to 'scan' a weapon before manifesting it through the ubw? seems paradoxical, or did I miss something? | ||

The LNs seem to be translated a fair bit along so I will probably hit them up soon.

The twin swords were just swords Archer encountered in his life and added into his collection of sword plans. Shirou just did a shitty copy version just from looking at Archer using the ones he has, which is why they are really poor reproductions (of Archers reproductions). Basically he really sucks at projection atm but he can still do it as a low level (and even then you saw what it did to his circuits). | ||

Who know, but its not like its unlikely. | ||

Why would you keep yelling Saber stop when you should realize that it uses a command seal and it means the difference between life and death (or taken over in this case) in battle? Also, when you have two people already telling you that caster can't be trusted, should be listening to them because they have more experience? Stupid move. Then coming back and saying you want to get involved when a) you can barely even move, b) you have nothing to offer and c) not a master anymore. Poor Saber. Imagine if Tohsaka got Saber instead, their teamwork would be phenomenal though she works really well with Archer. Didn't realize that he had that kind of history though. The whole lesser grail felt like it came out of thin air though. Don't recall them mentioning anything about there being more than one type of grail. Still not sure what heroic spirit Archer is and we haven't seen Lancer and Berserker do anything since the first couple of episodes. One thing is for sure though, Caster is in control atm with Saber and Assassin support. On December 29 2014 02:55 Slaughter wrote: God damn Shirou looks so fucking stupid in this episode lol. How much of an idiot is he. Rin and Saber are way to good for him. + Show Spoiler + Saber getting captured looked so bad. Just a complete fuck up on his part. Caster even looked surprised as fuck at the free gift she was given. + Show Spoiler + Can you blame her? Maybe Shirou forgot that saying Saber stop will force her to stop and used it as normal but even then, he should know by now that he shouldn't just ask her to stop like that (he's done it at least once before that I recall). | ||

Whats with this 'maybe' stuff? Do you people actually think it was an intentional, thought out action on his part? If you seriously have to consider "Did Shirou use that command spell on purpose or not", then... | ||

UBW + Show Spoiler + Well the look on Caster's face was like "wait what? Oh shit free win!" She was so surprised at the opening that he created lol. Also when it comes to some of the questions you mentioned about the grail. Well since it is the 2nd route some elements of the story are basically told as if the viewer knows about these things. I think you will enjoy the second season though  a lot of things you brought up come into play and its pretty awesome. | ||
