True, but her age still seems off despite everything else being more or less "normal". Considering what happened with the Einzberns and thus reasons for Kero anger, the grail is still there, in some form. For some reason. Also the cards for the classes are still there for some reason...the mages are still present and such...just without the Wars taking place because the Einzberns decided to do something else.
However the rest of the pattern holds, Irisviel and Illya seem the same (aside from Illya's age seeming off by a few years relative to the standard time periods). Kiritsugu seems to be saving the world or something, perhaps from whatever it was the rest of the Einzbern family wanted to do. Shirou somehow gets adopted by the Einzberns, though there is likely no fire. (what about his family?) Rin is still the mage she was before...no word on her family that I recall, but Sakura seems to be a Matou and at least Rin doesn't see her as a sister (though a rival for Shirou, yes). Though, to be honest, Sakura, as far as I can tell, has only had a cameo in one of the Rin vs. Luvia sidestories.
But...there are things in the background that seem to have not been told yet. That is probably why the story is interesting so far. We know sort of what to expect, but then we have no idea what to expect...because it is familiar, but not.
