So I keep on hearing the name Bleach in the anime community but I have never seen it or found out what its about. I suppose there is a first time for everything. This is going to be a long anime to get through but I can’t wait to get started!

Its interesting me so far however seems it might be a little predictable? Anyway here we go!
Take Away Sentence: How are you still alive falling from that hight?
(Making it easier for you to navigate my site! Click below to jump to jump from to other episodes!)
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)Â
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)Â
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)Â
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)Â
I wonder how he’ll react to Waver reading up about him, ha.
(Waver asking Rider about him being short in the history books)Â
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)Â
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)Â
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)Â
Couldn’t agree more!
(Everyone feels what Caster is about to do)Â
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)Â
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-Â
(The scene ends)Â
-DAM IT!Â

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)
Â
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?Â
(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 Â 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?Â
(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:Â
Poor Saber! And Rider is EPIC.

Lets begin! (Editing/Added to help navigate my website)
Â
Â
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.Â
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….Â
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?!Â
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?Â
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.Â
All I have to say is that these kids are freaking lucky!Â
Dam it Caster!Â
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!Â
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.Â
And I bet you fill like a shit person right now…Â
So you are taking Archer’s advice, good! I do really want to know what you think of Kariya’s motivation…Â
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!Â
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.
