Now was that an episode (16) rich in FSN parallels and foreshadowing or what?
- Lancer being forced to commit suicide by his Master.
- That very same Lancer prophesying a hellish ending to the 4th Holy Grail War.
- Kiritsugu, a man who's become cruelly pragmatic with time, despite having initially wanted to be a virtuous hero, and his desire to expose the hypocrisy of the foolish honorable ones. It resembles oh so much the dichotomy Archer and Shirou had going in FSN.
FZ continues to prove what a top notch prequel it is.
And from the preview for next week, anyone who's read FSN should know what's coming. Time for the alliance of the magnificent bastards to begin. Can't wait.
