That too. Talk about a major anti-climax. The least they could have done was make the sequence of events in the fight not feel so horribly disjointed and abrupt. I could barely believe what I was seeing (and not in a good way) after the black mud interrupted Kiritsugu and Kirei's fight. Suddenly, a major Master/Servant team is written out the story as if they were just another pair of fodder Assassins. It left such a bad taste in my mouth that I initially struggled to enjoy the rest of the episode, even if it was generally very well handled from that point on.
