I was actually expecting Jin to show up to help Osamu but it doesn't seem like he'll be the one to help from the preview. Wonder where he's going. I have lots of questions about that S-rank kid too. Like, he wiped out that huge army of Trion soldiers by himself? insane. I don't even think Jin can do that? Why was everyone so "nervous" when his name was mentioned?

yes, good point. He'll probably save Osamu at some point though I still wonder how they plan to reverse everyone who was changed to a Trion source only. Frankly, it feels a bit terrifying to be watching and thinking about being in their spot. New soliders that are uber strong and have crazy abilities plus if they even catch you, you're toast... Either way, I'm really looking forward to next week's episode as usual! :D

yes, but for him to betray her like that, he could've easily just blocked the attack but instead smacked her around. I was like, wait, what? Oo; I have a feeling that he'll help Saber and that it's not to "betray" her but it's the best method in this situation. I agree, I think Shirou has lots of potential and do wonder how much better will he get at his power. Maybe he needs to up his training a lot more because he can't do much past summoning and several minute (if even) of combat.

hmm fair enough. I also don't think he's the betraying type but I'm just not sure what this connection is that you speak of. Gonna wait and see what they pull up. One thing is certain though, he's damn good at finding out information about his opponents, more specifically, caster's identity in this case. Wonder what his connection with Saber is. Mind elaborating a bit more on the hint part? Was this during his dreams of the battlefield or from things that he's said to Saber? They do seem to understand each other most of the time lol.

I'm amazed if there are people who watched UBW from start to the most recent episode who are still wondering about Archer's identity/relation to saber, i'm not sure the show could be anymore in your face about it without outright saying it.

Iirc Archer and Rin had a conversation about his memories at the end of S1. Basically Archer remembered that he knew Saber but his memories were still hazy and he couldn't pinpoint who she was. He also figured that they didn't know each other closely since Saber couldn't remember him. However, I'm personally not sure if he didn't lie in that situation. The thing with Archer is: He always holds back and gives away less then he knows. And I think he knows a lot more than he makes everyone else think.
Then there is Sabers dream yeah, with that hill and she was like "Is it him? No it can't be.". Seems to me that she knows him quite well but didn't realise yet that Archer is this person she knows.
