Fate/stay night Final Thoughts & Overall Impressions

[Blade_Lord]

Yes, they live together in UBW route in the game, but Shirou fall for Rin not Saber.

Then it's not a good ending. Anyway, after doing some digging, I found there actually is a good ending. It's apparently called the "Secret ending" but it's a good one. It's going to take me a while to forget the ending/get over the ending of the anime. Guess I'm just a sucker for happy endings.

i just finished it not too long ago and have to say im impressed (not that that means anything im easily amused) i liked how the servents were all myth creatures or legends. At first emiya got on my nerves he reminded me a little too much like shinji ikari always doing what to be done like when riders master asked him to clean up the archery clubs room but i liked how he developed after meeting saber. There were some parts where i screamed shouldve seen it coming and some parts that just came out of nowhere (i ended up yelling at my tv for an entire episode) but the ending had me going i shouldve expected they (u know who im talking about) were never meant to be but i always thought maybe there was this small hope. I would like to see a 2nd season (something like next generation or something) and add some new servents.... like alexander the great would be a good one and some japanese historicals like oda nobunga or yukimara sanada... phew had to get that off my chest

Yeah, but in that ending it's heavily implied that they're both dead.

[Darkkiller0]

It's a happy death :P Besides, just having the reassurance that they at least get to stay together is of some comfort.

Yeah, I do as well to some extent. But even if both of them had somehow gotten together at the end, I wouldn't have considered it overly happy.

I heard it was more of Shirou choosing both of them.

[Keroko]

That's what the fanboys try to see in it. Certainly, Shirou is happy to see Saber continues to live, but he'd definitely in love with Rin.

[RadiantBeam]

Yeah. In UBW Saber is more of a close friend to Shirou, but he's in love with Rin.

Ah, really?

This is what I got listening to friends

[DarkHonour]

If Shirou and Saber are to be together, the fate/hollow ataraxia route is the best. And almost everyone is there.

Spoiler for But....:

Though it happens to be kinda' an illusion later...

A very good analysis of Saber and her relationship with Shirou.

[christine_cute]

i have completed the series and i LOVE it......but i was shocked that after the game saber had to return in past.......the even bigger shock was that she had to die .....

Although it seems to be a bit impossible.......i really want a sequel and a better ending....

[Darkkiller0]

You can get a better ending, one in which Saber and Shirou are together. You just have to collect all the cards/secrets.

are you talking about the "epilogue" from Realta Nua? cos collecting all the tiger stamps in the PC version sure as hell isn't going to get you another ending. (you get stuff thats almost as good tho :P)

True, the Realta Nua ending is only in the PS2 version.

[Seitsuki]

and it's not really an ending as such, just something like the "eclipse" from tsukihime or Afterstory. something to tie up the loose ends or give a look into a future.. but not an *ending*. as in shirou and saber still get seperated, just get get back together later. (assuming you ARE talking about that epilogue.)

It's not really an illusion as it is a convergence of dimensions/timelines, so it's stuff that could/would happen anyways.

i just finished watching the whole series

i feel this series overall is average, but the ending did surprise me and its hard to forget such sad ending

i did not play the game, so i find many things not explained in the anime, like the relationship of Sakura and Rin, why the teacher is so good in hands combat etc

however, i like the songs, the custom design, and of coz Saber and Rin

[yakumo-chan]

is there a route where saber meets shirou again?

or

will she ever go back into her dreams again?

No. But you could always play Hollow Ataraxia; although there's no English version at the moment.
