And while Miyu and Illya are arguably each other's parallel world counterparts, they are different enough that you can't really call them "mirror images". Illya is half-homunculus, while Miyu is fully human, only "special". The way they're integrated into their respective HGWs are quite different. Illya's was built around her in that she was born as a Lesser Grail (being a daughter of a Lesser Grail) to fit into an eventual Grail ceremony as such. Miyu, by quirk of birth, just happened to have the qualities that would allow her to function as a Lesser Grail in her verse's quite different version of the ceremony. Both have the ability to grant wishes, but for quite different reasons.

As for the adoption of Shirou, I don't really know what the situation behind that is, but here is my headcanon: Spoiler for massive speculation:

I think its quite obvious that whatever happened was at least partially due to Kerry and Iris, hence why they would adopt Shirou in the first place(despite already having a child) due to guilt. There's a lot of potential for the plot after Miyu world stuff now. Especially with the amount of revelations Illya, Rin, etc got about Sakura, Shirou and so on.

Just freaking awesome. Best Shirou just being outstanding in this one. Standing his ground and finding the strength to keep on fighting. Basically trapping Angelica and keeping her away from Miyu as she left that world.
Now set up for him to unleash some hell on her and leading to the Gilgamesh card being sent along as well. No surprise he could get this far either. Taking advantage of the arrogance of both the Ainsworths and the Gilgamesh card. Could have killed Shirou by going all out before he could really tap into his strength or unleash UBW. Now it's going to get fun . And certainly makes sense. Using his own card over and over again lead to this result. If the previous chapter was a touching moment of saving his sister, this was just pure awesomeness. Should be fun to have one more big fight and then transition to the present.

The reverse is also true. Shirou was captured, right? Meaning that he probably pass out after stalling or something. Now, the logical, practical and pragmatic thing to do would be to just kill him. I fully expect Julian to do so. Yet he's alive and in the Ainsworth prison? Methink Angelica asked Julian to let him live on the pretense of "interrogate him on Miyu's whereabout".

Looking back at when we see Angelica in the prison....I see zero interest in Shirou's well being. No hesitation to hurt him in order to shut him up. I think anything is possible in terms of where things go from here. Maybe she develops some interest in Shirou now that she's with the good guys. But, I don't think she was secretly hiding a crush all this time or secretly trying to protect him.

I wonder which one looks better in Ruler's outfit?
Rin as Rider is still one of my favorites. ===07/06=== If Ruler is a Saint, does that mean she is also protected from other gods? How well would Ruler do against Thor/Beatrice? Last edited by tuckersister; 2016-07-06 at 20:13. |

I'm not Catholic, so I don't know everything about what makes a saint a saint, but they're not gods. Of course, Nasuverse gods don't really appear to rise to the level of gods as they are in their myths, particularly as Servants, while originally mortal Servants tend to rise quite a bit above their legends. So I'd figure they'd be on pretty even footing. Frankly, if you've read the manga to this point, you know that Thor/Beatrice's biggest weakness is Beatrice. That's where you'd need to focus your strategy. Taken from that perspective, Thor is just a weapon you can steal.
