This Episode... Killing me... Saber... is too cute!!!!!! Araghhhhh!!!!...
PS. Lost too much blood from cuteness... |
Hope we'll be fested much Saber v.s. Assassin action, and ought to explain the deal going on between Caster and Assassin.
|
Damn... More Rider, Saber, AND Rin goodness. *in love*
|
Whats with the naked sabre :eyebrow:
Looks like Shirou completes his harem by adding the loli.:rolleyes: great view of Rider :naughty: |
Maybe Saber is trying to regain the center of Shirou's attention from Rin.... :heh:
And no harem is complete without a loli or loli looking character.... -.- |

I'm trying best not to looking at screen shots! >.<
Imo, this has the potential to be the best Fate episode to date. |
Best Fate ep ? ^^;
Well it did have a few interesting points, if only for Spoiler:
Otherwise nothing too memorable, but then given I've played the game, I sure don't expect surprises. |

I also rank this episode high up there, on par with the one I liked best before, ep2. After some longer deliberations, I decided to pull the 9, mostly to reward the amazing new music pieces which we were treated to. They definitely helped alot.
Production values went through the roof this time. The animation was just awesome. Nevertheless, I can't help myself but wonder why they insist on wasting so much momentum by talking and talking and talking and talking now even in the middle of duels. If they'd capture only a third of the steam they lose while doing so, the show would be so much better. And yet, I still feel quite content. A very good installment. |

Actually, I prefer talky parts.
If they spent time to develop the story with especially with TYPEMOON story, it is a good thing. One of the reason why Tsukihime failed is because they neglected to develop the backstory. Kinoko Nasu infused so much detail that it is injustice on just focusing on the fights. Just my take on people felt the anime is too much conversation complaint. |
Ep.9 = awesome
This ep was so awesome! Can't wait to have it subbed.
> if I had been holed up with Saber, Rin, Rider, Sakura and Tiger-Sensei when I was > a teenager, I would be so hormonally overcharged I wouldn't have remembered > how to tie my own shoelaces. Soo true, my friend. :D And Saber got +1000 cuteness points when she fell in Shirou's arms. I'm giving it an '8' in the poll just because I want to give a '9' in the next..... |
So I assume the fanservice is finally kicking into full gear?
|
I hope not, Fate/stay night is not a series that would need fanservice. Not that im saying a bit now and then isn't good, but too much fanservice can take attention away from a serious plot.

It has everything to do with what Saber wants though. Servants follow the Masters because they also want the grail, that means that Saber also wants the grail for one reason or another, and thats why she is fighting in the first place.
|
Saber needs mana after the fight. Give her the mana Shirou...! :eyespin:
Probably my favorite episode to date. Assassin came off very nice, I think he really benefits from having a voice. I always thought he was rather dull, but the seiyuu manages to make him seem a bit more interesting to me. I loved the little glimpse into Saber's power as well. Can't wait until it's completely released. Caster x Rider fight was also rather nice, albeit a bit short and not having much more then was in the Curtain Raiser. Caster's voice sounded a lot better this episode as well. I had expected it to sound very fitting, but the brief bit of it that we saw last episode didn't really do it for me. This time it does. Rider's also even more hawt. Next episode looks to be the Ilya meeting with Shirou at the park. A scene that took me by surprise the first time I played it. Hoping for a more insightful look into Ilya's character. |

Omg , great ep ! Really, when it comes to battles FSN kicks major ass ... And this time the action actually lasts more than 5 minutes! :heh:
Ok , some of my opinions on following characters after watching the raw. Assassin And his real identity is ... Spoiler:
Saber. Spoiler:
Emiya Since I can't understand much Japanese , can't be sure what he said in the ep... but , people, stop hating him , please :p And rider seems to be either using super glue to stick to the trees like that or she is a spiderwoman. :) |
No one lost in this one. Both duels ended in a draw,

I don't know man, but this episode is quite boring. And the pace of the fight is badly done.
And of course Shiro is a sexist idiot ehehehe |

As for "Shirou is gay!", I quote Rasmiel's post on Random Curiosity: Quote:

I don't suppose anyone had any doubts about the true identity of Assasin form this Ep.
A Samurai who holds a long Katana without sheath and use the technique Tsubame Gaeshi. A dead give away. |

He even said his name.. Sasaki Kojirou isnt it?

Good episodes. Won't rate it though till I can see a sub and get a better grasp of what was said. So far I'm giving it an 8.
Rider scenes always good. :D |

very nice episode especially when
Spoiler:
|
so no Servants is dead yet?
|
The 2 last servants just got introduce.... Just wait for a while before somebody got thrashed will ya :mad:
|
Damn someone is blood thirsty for deaths. :( Leave our poor Saber and Rider alone. :(
|
^ And Caster too ^^
|
Question! If Caster is Assasin's master, does that mean that there's actually 6 masters and 7 servants (one of which is a servant/master)?
Or, is there another "servant class" yet to be mentioned? |
