Saber's Sheath inside Shirou I know I show my anti-shirou bias here but Damn + Show Spoiler + Archer just kill the little pissant. You could have killed him like 20 times during the fight but nooo you wanted to try to also break his spirit, underestimating the fact that teenagers are stubborn illogical twats. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Up until know it's been a mystery what link shirou had that allowed him to summon saber and why he healed so many wounds so fast earlier on, this was just the explanation for those things. | ||

Yep but you still appreciate it more knowing it from the Fate route. At least they explained it, at first they only showed it and I feared they would leave it at that but its good that Archer explained it. | ||

He wants to make Shirou admit that he was wrong, thus validating Archer's hatred of his current situation. His hatred of Shirou stems from the fact that his ideals will lead Archer to where he is now; ideals he now realizes are hypocritical. However, if Shirou learns of this and still decides to choose the same path, what does that say about Archer? Does Archer really hate his ideals because they're are hypocritical, or has he simply become jaded after becoming a cog in the system and used as a tool? | ||

Yes I know what was going on, doesn't change the fact that I would have been happy if+ Show Spoiler + Archer curbstomped Shirou into mulch nor the fact that I heavily disagree with Shirou's conclusions after this fight. | ||

In the VNs she clearly has a body and is with everyone in the end. At least we got to see the aftermath of Angelic Howl after Amane left. If you actually read the novel, you wouldn't be so confused. | ||

They are simply a vehicle through which we can look at humanity in various situations. How people coexist with mushi (or fail to) is a common theme in many of the episodes. Exploring the origin of mushi would be analogous to explaining why fables have supernatural elements, in my opinion - it's an interesting backstory to consider, but ultimately it serves no purpose with regards to furthering the work. I know and I agree. That's why I said I can see why people are giving it a 10/10. It's just that for me personally it adds a lot of enjoyment if the lore gets explored in more in-depth. I just love research and getting to the core. And I think Mushishi had the perfect opportunity to capitalise on in this regard. That's all. | ||

UBW : Interesting ideal confrontation. Felt slow at times though. Nice to see some Saber-Shirou reveal. Sidonia : Ok episode. The action felt boring lately. Some funny comedy-relief moments. Arslan : Farangries, best woman! Owari no Seraph : Interesting episode! The Noble felt so OP. Again, toying with the MCs... | ||

Arslan was good too. I'm tempted to dive into the manga but I'll wait just like with Nanatsu. | ||
