| Very well made episode. Explanations that don't look like infodumps, combined with SoL scenes, while being really faithful to the VN. Also, Ilya getting additional time is almost welcome! But still, am I the only one who hears no BGM at all? |
| What BGM? |
| set up episode |

Maerow said: That was so lame...Aw, Saber was cute in this episode. But yeah Sakura > Saber. |
 |
| The interaction between Shirou and Rin at the start xD He actually said that! I liked Saber looking to the side when she said she was happy! Saber following Shirou to school and meets the others! She sure seemed to enjoy exploring the school ^^ Liked how Rin calmly disposed the minions without flinching or anything. Caster! Taiga and Sakura joining in at the end xD Rin saying she would kill Shirou. |

| Finally the subbed version. The scene when Mitsuzuri tells Shirou that "You never smiled" is kinda creepy. |

| Caster huh....? Boy, I hope I see more of these fights animated. Plus, I LOL'ED on the evil smile on Rin with Shirou's reaction. |
 |
| Don't know if it's dat Illya service or dat Ayako. Naw both of them good. Great episode. Wonder what that dream was about? Learn (re-learn) about noble phantasm and servants true names. Saber definitely looks good in (Rin's) regular clothes. Sakura getting jelly over there. Ayako looked amazing this episode. I think the sunset in the school made her look more great. Still can't stop see Shiki when I look at her lol. Seems like Shirou will be having more people at his house. Also looks like Rin is starting to get series about the war now. Caster next episode. Can't wait. 5/5. |
 |
| Saber is sooooo adorable in the 4th episode!! In the animation of 2006 she used to be so focused in the war, but now she's trying to open up but putting shirou first which is so adorable!! Can't wait for next week!!!  |

The music gives a clear feeling that this man is dangerous. |

| Dat Illya fanservice in the beginning! :9 . Her skin tone kinda reminded me of Kuro. Tsundere Rin's blush when being questioned by Shiro was cute! :3 . There's no way she'd be able to kill him, though she says it with much confidence. Sakura staring at Saber in the background was pretty funny. She probably got jealous a bit.. That glaring contest between Kuzuki and Saber though.. Reticently intense! Ayako indeed looked great this episode! I hope she gets more screentime in UBW, unlike what happened it the original Fate/SN. Tohsaka handling those minions by herself was badass! Though, couldn't help by laugh when she said she'll kill Shiro if he were to face-off against her. XD Great episode. Battle against Caster next. I can already tell it'll be pretty epic! |
 |
| T__T <-- Tears of joy. They're setting up a nice pace here. Some infodump, some Shirou being done surprisingly well, Rin being Rin, Saber being adorable. I wish I could just sleep till next week haha. |
 |
chickenonthepan said: Finally the subbed version. The scene when Mitsuzuri tells Shirou that "You never smiled" is kinda creepy. I think its fitting. She's being positive about it. The way I saw that scene is that Ayako is being understanding that there has to be something he went through. Being angry at people for not smiling would be ridiculous. |
|
| The lack of monologues is disturbing. |
 |
| Ilya fanservice, eh? It was a pretty boring episode as expected, however they did it pretty well. One thing I noticed was that the music was way better in this episode than in the past episodes, props for improving upon that. |

Cheeeeeeese said: The lack of monologues is disturbing. Didn't notice that. But there were simple hints, rather than being in Shirou's head all the time ;) |

Cheeeeeeese said: The lack of monologues is disturbing. Its called an adaptation for a reason, a load of monologues don't transfer over well into anime form. notJune said: Infodumping, Cooking, Unnecessary scenes with Sakura, this ep was pretty damn bad. It can't be just non-stop fighting, this isn't a Micheal Bay movie. |

Drake1000 said: They rushed Archer's speech at the end and skipped Rin's confusion on Archer's Noble Phantasm about how he supposedly wasted his Cadabolg. Going by how they are handling it, they will most likely add bits of it in other time. They seem to be skipping stuff that is reiterated more than once so it is only said once. ElPysCongroo said: Cheeeeeeese said: The lack of monologues is disturbing. Its called an adaptation for a reason, a load of monologues don't transfer over well into anime form. I hope they at least keep the most important ones. So far implying stuff about him worked very well, but it won't always. There ARE monologues they have to show. |

notJune said: ElPysCongroo said: That's not it, the infodumping and PTSD scene were both clumsy ways of conveying information to the viewer. I could care less for the action scenes if the slow, building moments were actually well written and directed but they aren't. What does cooking have to offer to the themes of Unlimited Blade Works? Why did Saber become a walking, talking textbook labeled "HGW for dummies?", why aren't they making changes so that we don't waste any time on Sakura?It can't be just non-stop fighting, this isn't a Micheal Bay movie. Seriously someone like you should know better. Saber pretty much stated her position in Ep2 - She wants Shirou to get the gist of everything as fast as possible. So her explaining him what Servants are fits very well. Mitsuzuri caring about Shirou's state felt very natural and made sense considering of how much good he has done to everyone and their connection via archery club. Also her info about his approach to archery was there, but in an earlier scene that was cut if I remember correctly. |

| Y'know a series is shit when they start an episode with lolicon fan service. |
notJune said: Chabe said: It was really unneeded, why couldn't they just have Illya eating breakfast or something.Y'know a series is shit when they start an episode with lolicon fan service. They're trying to capitalize on that lolicon money I suppose. Or on formidable sized Illya fanbase formed by her being MC in her own show. Scene fits the eerie tone of her life and conveys same foreshadowing fate route had since we have no fate adaptation. |

| Spooky dinosaurs and stupid sexy Illya |
| Good episode, well I wasn't expecting to be "wowed" or anything here so this was fine. I really did like the scene between Mitsuzuri and Shirou, though. Particularly the look on his face after she says he never smiles. |

| I like the fact that they stick to the general plot of UBW, but somehow manage to completely rewrite the script into something new. Loved the episode overall, just not so happy with the CG dinosaurs. They seemed a tad choppy compared to the CG we've see in the previous episodes. |

| Seiba, Lansa, Acha... Laida (!) Was looking forward to hearing that one lol |
 Great episode. They're doing such a good job developing the plot, world, and characters. The extra Illya scene in the beginning was a very nice touch since we didn't really know Illya's intentions this route. Then the added Rin vs Bone Golems scene was a nice touch. I liked seeing Rin and Archer investigate the Caster cases in the VN so same applies here. I love all the scouting segments in general because it always make you wonder what crazy thing is going to happen next, what information they may pick up, or what servant will show up during the scouting. Anyways, no complaints. Awesome pacing and the added segments are much appreciated, thank you ufotable. Also I always loved the Saber dojo scenes with Saber just chilling there. It's just so relaxing....  |

Particularly the look on his face after she says he never smiles. I liked all the body language in that scene, like how shirou puts his hands in his pockets(hiding the facts/trying to avoid the situation) when she asks about rejoining the archery club. I really liked all of his expressions in the scene and how he got the ptsd-trigger to the Great Fire at the thought of smiling. |

| Another amazing episode. Loved the explanation about the Noble Phantom. I only have one question though, why Shiro told his teacher that Saber is in town to say hi to Kiritsugu? I mean I know that he was trying to cover it up but isn't Kiritsugu dead? I only watched Fate/Zero and this series, so I thought he's dead since we didn't see him in the first episodes of the series. |
Chabe said: Y'know a series is shit when they start an episode with lolicon fan service. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA LMAO! Here we go again. Can't wait for your intelligent arguments *cough* for today. |
| great episode! though the illya scene was unnecessary tbh. they should leave that for the HF movies. |

That is one for one quote from VN, he is most likely implying she is old acquaintance from his travelling and didn't knew Kiritsugu is dead. Anyway this is minor brain fart from original, don't read much into this. |

When Illya was standing in the shade I mistook her for Kuro... needless to say I paused to savor the moment |

Rin vs Golems was in the VN. You're probably right (I honestly don't remember it), but it definitely seemed a bit more...... exaggerated, I guess? I mean, the giant golem thing I don't think was in the VN, but regardless I liked the fight. |
