Spoiler for Episode 15:

-Tokiomi sets Matou on fire, Kotomine wants to kill him but decides against it. He performs some sort of spell on him instead.
-Saber's left hand apparently has an anti-fortress Noble Phantasm. Lancer breaks the yellow spear into half, effectively removing the curse.
-Berserker realizes that Saber is King Arthur, so he loses interest in Gilgamesh and goes after Saber instead, which pisses that Gilgamesh to no end.
-Gilgamesh's ship is destroyed.
-Saber, with the full form of Excalibur truly shines this week.
-As Creepy Caster is dying, there is a flashback where he sees a girl who looks similar to Saber in a church. "This was the light, the blessing of bliss with Jeanne
-Gilgamesh and Rider exchange words about Saber on the bridge. Rider comes to the conclusion that he and Gilgamesh would never get along.
-Gilgamesh to Saber-"Fool who reaches for dreams beyond what humans may attain, only one in all creation should be allowed to love her in her destruction . And that is I, Gilgamesh. Ephemeral and brilliant one, fall to my embrace. Such is my decision".

Excellent episode as always. People should be pleased.

[rainz]

Great episode. Animation was excellent as usual, though I feel the pace and direction is a bit too slow and relaxed for the situation. Loved the new version of the Excalibur music though!

Spoiler:

Its hilarious how they manage to sneak Jeanne into the episode lol

[Klashikari]

Quite pleased they kept the fine details, such like Mithrenes (despite they could simply skip that and make Waver communicating with Rider with some sort of spiritual method). Heck, even putting Jeanne d'Arc there as an original content but nothing short of fitting.

Anyway, another thorough adaptation, and I guess people won't have any complaints regarding Gil's intrest for Saber now that it is complete (along with the extra lines in the BD version).
It is a shame Berserker couldn't have some shining moment with the Vulcan cannon

[FlavoryFantasy]

Great episode! So Caster exits the stage...but at least we got to see Jeanne animated! Hooray for Caster seeing that.

Spoiler:

Kotomine was going to kill Kariya, more along the lines of doing it out of obligation to his teacher Tokiomi.
It's not like he wants to kill Kariya for anything, unless Kirei doesn't like bugs or something.

"The End of Honor" Ah what an appropriate title for the next ep...

A shame indeed! Then again, Saber would probably be full of holes, and Caster would eat everyone.

[ChronoReverse]

I like how Gilgamesh was taken out with chaff lol.

I LOL at the look on his face and the fact that his ego is hurt when he is "dumped" by Berserker

[DakkerDB]

That was simply fabulous! The brilliance of Excalibur! The beauty of the Sword of Promised Victory! I can see myself rewatching that bit at least 10 times.

[AvianWing]

Gilgamesh is such a creepy stalker, lol.

[blue_sora]

I'll have to say, the music in this episode seemed to be chosen poorly. An off-day for the music director?

But anyway I love this episode for Saber's Excalibur. So if Kajiura did remix for Sword of Promised Victory it would not be a stretch that she will do it for Emiya theme. I like Emiya more than Sword of Promised Victory.

I have a bad feeling with Kirei helping Kariya with an evil smile. Kariya become unluckier with now Kirei interested in him.

[Yusei Fudo]

Awesome episode. Loved the cameo appearance of Jeanne XD

[serenade_beta]

The only similarity between Jeanne and Saber is their hair color... I guess it is time for Caster to get some extremely powerful glasses...

[Klashikari]

Their faces are sort of similar in term of traits, but Gilles de Rais lost reason even during his lifetime according to the lore, so it isn't surprising he mistakes her anyway, especially due to the holy ailment of both of them.
Well, I guess -any- holy maiden would do for him

[ShiroiRyu]

I wanted more of Jeanne.

[Kokukirin]

Too many short scenes jumping at the beginning. It felt almost like 2 identical short clips (Gilgamesh v Berserker, Kariya v Tokiomi) played 3 times over.

But Sword of Promised Victory + Jeanne d'Arc ^_^

[hero147]

I've begun to really like the ending song.

[kk2extreme]

Looks like Lancer is next to go...

[Tailong]

EKUSU - KARIBAAA!!!
That is all!
