Episode One

Welcome back! Hope you all had a great week or two! I’ve changed the format slightly only because its easier for me this way.

Uh oh…. here comes some food I guess. You are freaking badass Saber. Well dam, this isn’t good. I do wonder how they’re going to defeat that thing then, I’ll look forward to finding out.Dude, you do realise that you’re an easy target there right? Hasn’t Caster explained to him that the other masters want to kill him? Though at the same time please stay there so you can get killed.Not good? You know I completely forget that normal people have no clue about mages and they’re basically a secret.Oh, I wonder if Archer has any weapons that could kill that thing? He a very powerful spirit after all (I’ve also looked up his legend and now kind of understand why he’s so arrogant, like wow)I’d like to see you do better Shiny. Or considering you’re legend you probably can do better if you can be bothered. I have a feeling he won’t be helping out any time soon.I have to say I find their dynamic incredibly strange, especially compared to the other master servant pairs. Like I know he’s a king and all but isn’t he still your servant and you’re his master, can’t you just use a command spell?Well didn’t expect it to be able to heal that fast anyway. Half of me thinks you’re being seriously petty and the other half of me doesn’t blame you for it.Thats what you call generosity?!Oooh, whats this?Huh, did he touch a nerve there? You’re usually more collected than this Shiny. Oh wow, this makes me even more interested to see this weapon or noble phantasm or both I guess? To be completely honest dude you’re relationship to begin with is completely damaged. Because Gilgamesh is a arrogant dick who may be doing this on purpose as what servant wants their master to get more command spells? Also you should have sent Shiny after Caster from the start if you really wanted that extra command spell, not waiting until oh no, actually civilian life could be in danger and more children are killed.They are both going to die, aren’t they?Well he has clearly never seen any horror movies, I do not feel any sympathy for you at all. Who’s clever idea was it to go towards the strange mist?Du daa, he is dead. Seriously though, what the hell is that? Where on earth did you get that Shiny? It does look pretty cool though.Whoop! I’m not entirely sure who to root for but I love it.Actaully I think I’m rooting for you Shiny because you look pretty badass like this, maybe, possibly…..Dam it! No! Get the hell away from him!If this turns into a fight I don’t think you can win but I’m still rooting for you! Can’t you call Berserker down here to protect you?Um….?I know! This is me, this is my expression as well. I knew he was a bad guy but really? Didn’t expect him to not give a dam about one of his daughters. Why though? Seriously, why does it have to be only one? Why can’t they both learn it?Kill him please, somehow just kill Archer’s master. That doesn’t make it right!Okay something isn’t right in head, unless he doesn’t actually know what they are doing? Maybe he doesn’t know about the crest words? This is literally the only way I could possibly forgive him for this. His opinions still wrong though.This is the main reason as to why he is so wrong, they look so happy, she looks so happy. Because he is a dick!

I think this may be the sound of a sequel possibly?I didn’t realise thats what he meant but now I think about it, that makes sense. And makes me dislike him even more.Oh really, I think I can…VERY EASILY.Now I hate to be nick picky but aren’t you being a little hypercritical here. I do like that its on this line he removes his hood, revealing himself fully to Archer’s master. I can…understand where you are coming from but at the same time I hate you.This fight cheered me up, thank you.Good feelings gone! Well you can slaughter the serial killer for me and this guy and all the other masters I don’t really want dead so please hold that thought.Well said. What are you doing?!I think I’ve already said this but please someone shoot him. Creepy…..YESSSS.CALLED IT!This shot would have freaked me out if it was pointed at anyone else.Would it be acceptable for me to jump up and down and cheer?Uh oh…what are you doing? Sniper guy shoot him! I am aware this doesn’t make sense but I don’t care!I hate that a part of me goes, ooh I’m glad his master rubbed of on him at the same time the other half, I don’t care! Just-

Oh, can Lancer actually stop his power? Or is Sniper guy asking him to like kill himself or something.Well that’s the most patronising tone ever. I don’t like you very much theres probably more to you and I hate you enough to want you dead…yet, but if you keep up with those snarky comments you might win that place in my stone cold heart. My stomach drops every time a episode finished, dam this show and its cliffhangers.

Last Sentence Take Away:

Yes! Serial killer is finally dead! One down and one to go!

Anime: Informal Review/Commentary: Fate/Zero Season One, Episode Thirteen

Let’s do this!

(Edit, so my images seemed to have vanished again, I can’t seem to do anything about it, so you’ll just be getting my comments for this one, so sorry!) (Edit/Added, making my website easier to navigate)

(Rider looking at the sea)

Oh, we’re getting some flashbacks of Rider’s past, nice!

(Waver being very snappish with Rider)

Whats up with your attitude Waver? Though its interesting that he’s getting memories from Rider? I actually hope we get this from all the masters, I’d love to see their reactions.

(First shots of caster and his master)

SOMEONE JUST KILL HIM!

(Caster saying he wasn’t caught by god).

Well technically if God controls everything wouldn’t their actions be because of God and Gods finally decided to punish you?

(Ryuunosuke telling Caster his opinion on god and how it’s like his writing a story)

I actually thought this might divide them and Caster would do something horrible but nothing he didn’t deserve to Ryuunosuke (Yeah, I am so not going to be able to remember let alone spell that)

(Caster getting all excited and crazy about Ryuunosuke’s ideas)

I think the only thing I can say is…. Oh, no….

(Waver pulling a book out about Rider)

I didn’t actually need to look Rider up and guessed he was Alexander the great a while ago thankfully but Waver, you do know you can just ask him right?

(Rider pulling the book out that Waver was looking at)

I wonder how he’ll react to Waver reading up about him, ha.

(Waver asking Rider about him being short in the history books)

Is that seriously what you wanted to know Waver? What? Thats your question? This pair never fail to make me smile.

(Caster’s master watching Caster from a bridge)

This would be a perfect time for Sniper guy to shoot him… just saying.

(Waver getting upset with Rider)

Whats up with you Waver? Rider is treating you like a friend here, its called teasing and banter.

(Waver saying Rider probably wants this contract between them to end)

I think you haven’t been paying attention to how Rider views you and how its changed Waver.

(Rider talking about how tiny people are on a map so it’s impossible to compare)

Couldn’t agree more!

(Everyone feels what Caster is about to do)

Well, this is probably where shit hits the fan, isn’t it?

(Rider saying he would team up with Saber)

Sounds good!

(They talk about how they need to kill it before the monster eats anyone(

Well better kill it fast then and Caster as well! I am incredibly happy that Caster is finally going to be killed, yeah I highly doubt he will live through this though I hope he doesn’t take down any other masters or servants with him. Though I at least know Iri is safe because based on how she is loosing strength, thats likely going to be a part of her downfall, not this fight.

(A voice speaks out without revealing who it is)

Who is that? (Waits for a few seconds to see who spoke) Lancer, Whoop! So glad to see you, now just don’t die!

(The scene looks likely that the episode will end on a cliff hanger)

HELL YES AND PLEASE DON’T-

(The scene ends)

-DAM IT!

Last Sentence Take Away:

Rider and Waver’s friendship is amazing.

Anime: Informal Review/Commentary: Fate/Zero Season One, Episode Twelve

Hope you had a good day, lets get down to business! (Edit, so my images seemed to have vanished, I can’t seem to do anything about it, so you’ll just be getting my comments for this one, so sorry!) (Edit/Added, making it easier for you to navigate my site!)

(Archers and previous assassin master are talking about Riders power)

Does this mean they are thinking of sending Shiny (Yep, that is now my nick name for him) to try and kill Rider? No!

(Kiritsuga talking about taking Iri and Saber away)

What workshop? Surely you don’t mean to hide Iri and Saber away? Especially Saber. She can help!

(Kiritsuga analysing everyone)

I have to say, even though I’m verging on disliking you, mainly for cheating on Iri and the way you are treating Saber however I do really enjoy your analyse of everyone.

(Kiritsuga talking about the servant kidnapping children)

Why can’t someone just freaking kill him already!

(Gilgamesh talking about finding new entertainment, implying his interest in Saber)

Oh dear… Someone tell Shiny already that he has no chance or this could end badly for everyone.

(Kirei explains to Archer what happens when a servant loses their master)

Oh, so the servant doesn’t disappear when their master is defeated, good to know.

(Gilgamesh smiling in last shot before it transitions to Saber and Iri)

I’m not sure if I like that smile…

(Iri saying perhaps Kiritsuga remembered she wanted to visit a Japanese mansion and perhaps he remembered )

Or maybe he was being a bit of a dick and decided to leave you two there instead, just a guess.

(Iri talking about doing a magic circle)

Huh? Okay maybe they do have something special to do. Maybe…

(Saber mentioning Iri is not touching anything)

What is going on with you? Wait…is this what he meant when he said she would die in the beginning of this season?!

(Iri showing Saber how weak she is)

Bloody Hell. Also don’t die IRI!

(Iri’s expression after she tells Saber she will improve)

Ah, you just lied straight to her face didn’t you? I have a feeling that isn’t what that circle is for and it may be bad for your health Iri.

(Gilgamesh saying Kirei spoke of Beserkers master the most)

I think his got you there Kirei. I have to say I do like their interactions, its a interesting dynamic between them and I hope we get more of it in the future.

(Kirei being chosen as a master)

Wait, what?

(Gilgamesh reaction, not that surprised)

Please enlighten us Shiny, you seem to know whats going on. I want to know which servant its for as well? Can a servant have two masters now? It seems so I guess?

(Archer picking up the gold archer statue, saying “I won’t say it”

I do really love this scheming or mainly Shiny being pretty manipulative I think his suggesting that Kirei steals him. Mind you I don’t have much of a problem with that as I don’t care that much for Shiny’s current master.

(Gilgamesh’s snake like eyes before the episode ends)

Well I bet shit is going to hit the fan next episode or incredibly soon and I can’t wait.

What the heck is up with Shiny’s eyes?

Anime: Informal Review/Commentary: Fate/Zero Season One, Episode Eleven

No time to talk! Lets go! (Edit so I accidentally deleted a lot of screen shots without realising it until now, so I’ll be explaining what the comment with no screen shot is about) (Edited/Added making it easier to navigate my website!)

(Rider shows up)

I didn’t expect him to go in for the attack? Maybe he’s just here to talk? He seems like a guy that wouldn’t go back against his word about attacking Lancer or Saber without them fighting and one of them winning.

(Rider asks for Saber to drink with him)

I knew it! Haha, there is no way he wants to fight while wearing that. I love you Rider, please don’t die. I don’t think you both are the pair that should win the Holy Grail but I don’t want you both to die either. So please stay somehow… These two are hilarious. Maybe they’ve come to tell Saber about Caster?

(Archer starts to appear)

What the hell?! I know who that is! What are you doing here? Well its funny to think that his just been spying on them this entire time. Thank you Saber!

(Rider saying he invited Archer)

I am incredibly shocked he agreed to that. Though I suppose he seems to find watching other people or finding out about other people “entertaining” so maybe thats why he came?

(Archer going to pull something out of his portal)

Don’t tell me he is going to pull out some wine, ha!

(Archer pulling out the wine)

He did! Ha! Well have to say despite the attitude you may have won a spot out of my shit list Archer.

(Rider saying he knows who Archer is)

Then tell meeeeeeeeeeeeee! Though I also like your nick name for his as well, I think I’ll call him Shiny from now on.

(Rider expression when asked why he wanted the cup)

Why are you blushing? Where you lying to Waver when you said you wanted to conquer the world?

(Saber basically saying she didn’t save Britain)

Um just one thing Saber? Unless this anime has a different world history I’m pretty sure Britain is still alive and kicking? Didn’t Waver come from England? We don’t need being saved because, you know, we’re still here. I say we because I’m a brit, so hi to people reading this.

(Saber talking about Britain falling)

Because we’re not dead Saber! Come over to Britain and read all the myth around you and folk lore, I’m sure you’d be proud that you’re not forgotten and everyone who knows about or heard about the legend of King Arthur still believes you to be a hero. The only thing I can think is she is actually talking about Camelot but why call it Britain? I haven’t looked up on my Arthur myths but Camelot and Britain I’m quite sure are two separate things. Britain is the land and we’re still here, hello! Camelot was your kingdom, thats what fell, not Britain?

Well I don’t quite agree with that statement Rider. Didn’t expect Rider to have that view point either Saber!Ah, that makes more sense and yeah I can see where you’re coming from now rider, that makes sense. I do believe that but there is only so many sacrifices you can make.

I also believe in this point of view, I think you need to have a mixture of both to be a good king. So they are both wrong and right at the same time.

I wouldn’t go that far…But true. I defiantly agree with this point, they all seemed to be quite extreme in their different ways. But you also need to inspire devotion and loyalty as well Rider.

(Sabers reaction to Rider)

Poor Saber! It looks like she is having a mini break down here! Can I give her a hug?

(Sabers flashback)

Oh, wow! Poor Saber but amazing animation there!

(The assassins surrounding them)

Oh, so they are one person after all?

(Rider getting ready to face them all)

Well on this point I defiantly agree with Rider, a king shouldn’t be alone.

(Riders nobile phantasm forming and showing his army)

This isn’t cool, this is epic! Rider, you are officially one of my favourite characters. The music fits so perfectly with this, I love Rider’s Noble Phantasm, like how can the other servants ever be able to defeat a army?

(Rider saying he no longer respects Saber)

Ouch! No! Don’t say that! I’m sure you and Saber can still be friends! Saber and Rider’s fall out, like hurts me…in my soul.

(Archer response to Saber when Rider leaves)

I have no idea what to say to that though don’t think I didn’t notice your lack of conversation in this one. I want to hear your actual opinion on how Saber views being a king and your opinion on how a king should act. I think its similar to Rider because of the way you laughed at Saber but thats all I am getting. No dude, seriously Shiny, can I have an actual opinion other than “I feel attracted to the agonised heavy burden expression on your face” Ugh, did he say affection? Ummm…..Saber, you have another admirer, well done! To be honest Shiny, despite your attitude I prefer you over killing kids for fun Caster any day. So you do you …understand Saber’s views or/and are you just now attracted to her because she is “entertaining” with the way she views kingship? Let me see into your mind dude.

Last Sentence Take Away:

Poor Saber! And Rider is EPIC.

Anime: Informal Review/Commentary: Fate/Zero Season One, Episode Ten

Lets begin! (Editing/Added to help navigate my website)

Starting with this? Now this feels a little ominous.

What are you doing Rin?

He doesn’t look so happy, thats your dad right?

Oh, okay maybe he is happy, well at least he’s interested in teaching her but I guess that be the case as she is probably the next in line. I did see there was other series like this, maybe it’ll be about their kids? But to be honest I like you Rin though all the other characters and the situation they are in at the moment are much more interesting than this. I hope we’re not staying all episode with her.

Huh, like cheat ice sculpting I suppose. What the hell? Now that is going to be useful! Can I have one?

You mean if you survive….

Oh no and that scene and that music gives me the creeps… Well who do I know thats creepy and liked kidnapping people? Don’t tell me Caster will kidnap Rin?!

What on earth makes you think you can save them by yourself? Get your father, I don’t care how many times you have to call him, just do it idiot!

Is this a trap…? He must have heard her right? You’re quite loud Rin.Oh, well I guess he is a little deaf then. Oh no… I do wonder what that bracelet is about, does he have good knowledge of magic after all then?

Whack him on the head with it! It would be funny if she somehow or even accidentally kills him, I think that will stop Caster, sorry to all the other masters, a child got there before you! Ha! At least her using her magic to much comes in handy! Oh, so thats not your own magic but Casters, well I take that back.

All I have to say is that these kids are freaking lucky!

Dam it Caster!

Is that white heard dude protecting her? Or someone else?

Ah ha! So it was you! I also think your the one who needs the most command spells so I hope you’re the one to defeat Caster mainly for that reason, though with what Waver saw last episode I wouldn’t mind them being the ones to kill Caster to get revenge for those dead kids and stop it from continuing. Kariya, I should be able to remember his name, Kariya, Kariya, Kariya. Looking well as ever…

I love this imagery right there!

Finally getting a proper explanation of those worm things, thank you! Took you long enough show!

This is definitely going to be interesting… Her husband vs her daughter, who is more important to her? Though I’d say her husband by the way she gave up her other daughter in the earlier episodes. It might not be the response you are hoping for Kariya.

And I bet you fill like a shit person right now…

So you are taking Archer’s advice, good! I do really want to know what you think of Kariya’s motivation…

Well never freaking mind then, noooo, ah sorry Rin and her mother but Kirei’s thoughts on Kariya’s motivation are so much more interesting to me!

Last Sentence Take Away:

To be honest the first half and the middle of this was boring to me but I did really enjoy the ending half of it with Kariya and Kirei.
