  2. About doll body. Heavens Feel True Magic has nothing to do with physical bodies. It allows to manifistate the soul, which what happined with Shirou.
    Rin and Sakura spent a ton of time and money to find puppet master, quite famous and infamous at the same time, who makes prostetic limbs and entire bodies that works basically as well as real ones. And because of that, when Shirou`s soul was put inside of it, soul changed new vessel to form of original body it was taken.
    IIRC, it was mentioned that process wasn`t completely perfect, but it`s nothing critical. Shirou got full-functioned body, that can even perform magecraft. It`s fake, but when issues like that ever stopped him?)

  3. Attack that Shirou used against Berserker was a move that Heracles himself used to slay Hydra, which one of his labors, by destroying all of it`s heads at once. It`s full name is Nine Lives Blade Works: Slayer of One-Hundred Headed.
    Original attack was performed with bow, but Heracles later adapted this move to his other weapons. It`s a series of superfast attacks at vital points of the target, and can have up to 100 strikes.

  9. It pains me to see how they massacred the VN. If not rushed, and adapted from the beginning to the end, I think the show would have ended up a lot like AoT. The flashy fights bring people in, but it's the story and the characters that make you care.

    BRO THAT WAS THE SAME REACTION I HAD WHILE READING THE VISUAL NOVEL LMAOOOOO

    It was so fucking HYPE and HAPPY that I couldn't stop smiling! Like, "FUUUUCK this makes so much sense and they don't even need to explain it because we already know what it does!!!" 😂

  11. The ending is explained that, in the VN they find a character from another one of Nasu's works, who helps them get a new body for Shirou. Shirou's soul was materialized when Illya used Heaven's Feel.
    They could have gone into more depths about it, instead of just hinting at it, and making it a bit confusing, but my personal opinion is that they did it on purpose, to give us a little of both endings.
    In another ending you can get in the VN, Shirou will die, and Sakura will simply live in delusion that Shirou is still alive, and no one has the heart to tell her.
    So, while they did go for the true ending, where Shirou is saved, the vagueness might have been so that people could interpret both endings as a possibility.

  13. 18:20 Those are not the things shirou will slay, those were Berserkers twelve labors, or Twelve Labors of Hercules, the 12 Legendary actions he did, Emiya was copying it.

  15. Fate route is still worth watching, and yeah grail was created to achieve third magic which is called heaven's feel which is the is a magic that allows for the materialization of the soul but the ritual wasnt fully complete bcs illya was a homunucli but if she were fully successfull shirou would be practically immortal, in couple of bad endings shirou fought saber alter 1v1 and acctually won but in the end lost all mana and saber recoverd but he stilll solo defeated her and other ending was when illya wasnt there in the end so shirou had to project excalibur and the he trully died. In the fight with berserker shirou copied berserkers noble phantasm nine lives which are nine quick as fuck slashes funny enough he got nerfed in stay night bcs it was too broken but he uses it ni oder fate like grand order. Fun facts there is more than 8 classes in fate and the other ones which were skipped sadly in the movie the part when we see shirou suffering from usage of archers arm that he wanted to cut it off bcs of the pain and the other fun fact in visual novel rin and illya fought over who will be shirou master bcs he became demi-servant and you could choose which one you're willing to have as a master. So yeah in conclusion fate route with saber is still rly good but would be cool if ufotable would do a remake of it and rip to illya route oh yeah and kireis daughter is in hollow ataraxia with orginal lancer master and more stuff about angra manyu

  17. So to try and explain the Shirou’s body vanishing thing at the end. When Illya asked “Do you want to live regardless the form your life will take?” it was basically asking if he’d be ok if his body vanished because Heaven’s Feel, the Third Magic, materialises the soul. His soul was then stuck in that cage after they retrieved him because he had no body to go back to. At the end where Sakura and Rin find the puppet, they had just walked past Touko Aozaki in the alleyway. She is one of the most brilliant Mages in the verse and her specialty is puppets. Not just any puppets, but puppets that can take on the properties of those that are connected to it. So when Shirou’s soul entered it, it took on his form.

  18. Damn, really hope someone can convince them to watch Babylonia. As someone who's read the VN back in 2006 after seeing the Deen adaptation, and then every new entry of Fate to come out since then, Babylonia is my favorite of them all. The main FSN story is incredible, with truly great character arcs and establishes so much lore, but it does feel like a cage. You've learned all of this really interesting world building lore and magic systems, but it can only revolve around these few characters in this branching story, and then it just ends. FGO is where they can really stretch their wings and finally utilize more of the magic systems, and introduce us to new servants and settings outside of the basic Holy Grail War setup. As a history and mythology buff, it's wonderful to see Fate's take on more legends and mythical figures. FGO has a One Piece type setup where each Singularity(Island) is able to tell it's own story, while still building the overarching plot and character arcs throughout. Some are darker, some are more fun, playing with all sorts of different genres of storytelling. Babylonia is still my favorite, even as the main story has continued into its later acts. I love that cast and I deeply appreciate the fun and comedic aspects of it that are so very rare in the FSN adaptations. For me, it gives much more weight to the serious moments, seeing these characters that I've laughed with, be faced with mortal danger. Also, having Gil on the team always guarantees a great time.

    Regardless…. Thank you for these reactions! You guys are superb reactors and really take the time to engage with the works.

    In terms of the Heaven's Feel movies, as you suspect, there is a lot more explained in the VN. The Illya and Kirei storylines do not get much screentime here ,so they don't feel nearly as impactful as Sakura's arc. Kirei and Shirou's stories have been building throughout all 3 routes and this final standoff and realization of who they each are at their core's is truly great. Shirou's "I want to live" scene of him overcoming his survivor's guilt at the end of this movie is much more significant in the VN. They don't spend much time on it in these adaptations. His hero complex of saving everyone is masking his immense survivor's guilt from surviving the Fuyuki Fire at the end of Fate/Zero. It's briefly mentioned here and there in the anime, but it's a huge deal in the VN. The movies also don't have much time to really explain how incredibly damaged Shirou's mind is from using Archer's arm. The scene here where he finally remembers Illya's name and says it over and over feels a bit odd or over the top in the movie, but it was a big moment in the VN with much more buildup to it. I vaguely recall one of you mentioning that you've watched Garden of Sinners, if so, take a closer look at who walked past Sakura and Rin at the end right before they got the puppet. That's all I've got off the top of my head. Thanks again for these reactions! Hope one day you do come around to watching FGO: Babylonia.

  19. fun fact in the VN if you don't bring rider with you to fight saber alter. Shirou fights her alone and manages to beat her by overusing archer's arm but the price was too big it ends up crippling him after so that's a bad end.

  20. These movies are a visual masterpiece, but the run time causing the Illya and Kirei content to be cut short is always a shortfall.
    Particularly the Illya stuff. Her exit is always sad, but without a lot of the bonding, it just doesn't hit as hard.

  23. you should react to Fate/Strange Fake when it comes out it is kinda takes place after all the fate stay night stuff, and from what I have read in the novel it is best written imo better then zero

  24. there may be people who do not understand the ending, but what happens is that a magician who is from another story of the universe of fate (expert in recreating puppets equal to bodies) takes the soul of shirou that materialized with the third magic or heavens feels that yllia used to save his soul, this was introduced into the doll and therefore it is as if it were the real one with emotions and everything…. to me this is the best route

  26. Love the reaction and lore disscutions,i actualy hope youll react to the "last episode" from vn aka epilouge/true end for saber route/final enfing you can see after getting all previous main endings(5 of them) and all bad ends(choosinh wrong choice in vn and seeing Shirou die or worse) then you can unlock "lasr episode" imo the most deserved,well written emotional final,i know that it would be odd just see ending from vn after watching all the animes but there is very little vhance of it being animated fully so i would really wish for you guys to see something that important and great before moving on from F:S/N,all the best for yall

  29. Uzui vs gyutaro or Alter saber vs Rider?

    I'll pick alter saber vs rider as it was goddamn cinematic in cinema

    Please react to Garden of Sinners as it was an important part to understand the ending of spring song. And has hell of animation too.

  31. Sorry if you already know this.

    間桐 桜(Matou Sakura)
    桜(Sakura) means cherry blossoms.

    This movie was replayed in theaters in Japan in the spring when the cherry blossoms are in bloom.

  34. I'm always bewildered by this movie, it's absolutely amazing– a goddamn masterpiece that encompasses the beauty of being the perfect grand finale to the story of Fate Stay Night's story and themes, and the story of Emiya Shirou.

    And yet, I and many others agree that compared to the Visual Novel, this Movie still feels a bit disappointing.

    That's not to say we dislike it– quite the opposite; these Movies were basically perfection and exactly how they should've been done when adapted to film, Fate's a story that much of it's beauty comes in just how much of it there is to tell, and how much is being told– that's something which doesn't reflect well into cinematics.

    But if there's just one thing I wish they included at the end,

    Just one line from Shirou

    One thing from 'that scene':

    "I… Really like, Kotomine Kirei."

    The final fight of Heaven's Feel, is the moment where you get to see the True Zenith of both Shirou and Kirei's characters: Both of their lives are already over– their just on borrowed time, and now, both of them are simply fighting because they want to… and that's all. Maybe they brought over none of the monologue, cause words could do the beauty of that scene from the novel no justice.

    "I… Like Kotomine Kirei."

  37. The Jeweled Sword is pretty much one of the most overpowered weapons out there, it's effectively a powerful Noble Phantasm that also gives you infinite MP, which allows you to spam it as much as you like.

    It's not much different than what Saber Alter was doing in this trillogy, spamming Excalibur as much as she wanted all the time thanks to having mana to spare since she's getting supplied by the Grail itself.
