Overedge

See: Shirou vs Black Saber - END (scene translation)

During the Sakura route, Emiya Shirou makes great usage of Kanshou and Bakuya in his fight against Black Saber.


But if their legitimate owner -Archer- was doing it, the Overedges would be the result. In the serial Tracing, the third and last pair of Kanshou and Bakuya would assume this shape when reinforced.

The design comes from the animated version of the fight between Archer and Berserker, and was created by Koyama Toshihisa (art director for the Fate/stay night anime); Nasu Kinoko fell in love with the dangerous look of the knives.

The blade is twice as tall as the regular Kanshou & Bakuya, but splinters cover the blade from the ridge to the edge. The original usage of the triple pair of wings is three consecutive X-shaped strikes, without any flying or leaping.

I dunno about this part being reliable since peeps tend to exaggerate their stories.

Due to the summon of angry mayo in the third HGWar, the HG is tainted, and thus resulting in the possibility of the summoning of anti-heros.
She strikes again:P

More question coming up:

So if Arthuria a.k.a Saber encounter Cu Chulain in 4th holy grail war she'll be dead by his Gae Bolg??

What determines the luck of the servant?? The holy grail or the master??

Did Nasu said anything about Archer's age??

In the game did fake assassin said that he's a fictional hero or is it another thing which the anime makes up with??

Is Saber invisible sword an excallibur with an invisibility sheath or a sword made up of compressed air??

How long can archer and shirou maintain their Unlimited Blade Works??

Is the shape of command mantra based on the master, the servant or the class of the servant??
