fave mastah - Souchirou-sama.  JK.  It's gotta be Kiritsugu. 

Rin and Tokiomi are pretty cool too

For favorite servants gotta go with:

Saber (F/Z) though yeah okay they're the same person (with F/SN) but wth--I'm a Saber fanboy
Rider (F/Z)
Archer (F/Z)

I like Rider (F/SN) too because well, she's pretty cool but always get little screentime, Archer (F/SN) and Berserker (F/Z)

Favorite masters are of course:

Kiritsugu
Rin
and Kariya for a pity vote XD

Shiro sucks btw

Wow, nice episode. Loved the Kiritsugu-Kirei fight (is Kirei really dead? He shouldn´t, as he appears in F/SN)

Wow, Kiritsugu... I don't think many people could've done what he just did.  No wonder his demeanor is so sullen in FSN.

such a good episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I kinda got Evangelion vibes from it, but, man.  I want to bear Kiritsugu's children


Also, the setting/scenery in Fate/Zero doesn't exactly match what was shown in the visual novel for F/SN (burning buildings, scorched field, a towering Grail)..

Also, no fleshing out Berzerker?  Did this happen in the light novel as well? 

Saber vs Archer? nuthin?  From what the VN referenced, it seemed like they faced off rather than just kind of 'talk'.

If you watched Carnival Phantasm, you'd know just how much of a dick.

No, they very much cut that fight short.  It's expected to be on the BD, like a good amount of ep11 was.

This. Seconded. I have to say, I admire his decision.

killing like, the entire population save 2 people?  Would life even be worth living with only 2 people left in the world?

I would of done the same..plus, Kiritsugu doesn't seem like the faithful type of guy (Maiya..and Sherry being his real true love)

I'm guessin you mean Shirley, but c'mon, you can't really call a guy unfaithful when he has a thing for someone as a little kid and then ends up marrying someone years and years later when he's grown up and she's dead.

and Maiya could be a fair point, but I don't know/remember if they ever mentioned when they got together, if it was before or after him gettin married or what.

It was before, but she was never a romantic interest.  She was a  partner.  That'd be like calling some guy out for being married when he had a female co-worker he knew before he met his wife.  In fact, that's almost a perfect analogy.

Also, while he cared for Shirley and she was his first love, she wasn't his true love.  If she had been, he'd have made a widow out of Taiga.

that's what I thought, however before I responded I looked up things on the TypeMoon wikia and apparently some FZ material referenced some level of sexual relations between the two, not in a romantic way exactly, but as a coworkers-with-benefits thing.

While I partially agree, we have to consider that Kiritsugu acted and killed just so to make the world better, and later on to make a world where Iri and Ilya could live happily, maybe he just wouldn´t care anymore and decide to stay only with Iri and Ilya as it was for them that he was fighting. What surprised me was that he directly killed them both.

well it wasn't really them, it was the Grail

I was under the impression that Kerry was always thinking about Shirley, it's kind of one of those things where you fall for a girl and you never forget her the rest of your life. 

And yeah, it seemed like Kerry had something going on with Maiya *shrugs, I wouldn't be surprised if he did accomplish his goal and the grail wasn't tainted from the Avenger heroic spirit, after Iri dies it ain't too farfetched to see him settle down with Maiya.


Huh, Taiga?! Fujimura-sensei? wut daaa...explain yourself. Unless the next episode is going to do the explaining.
