Welp, this episode confirms Astolfo as a guy. That priceless reaction from Jeanne...LOL

Seems everyone has their own way of preparing for the upcoming battle. Mordred eats like a little lion until Sieg and Astolfo found her. Jeanne and Astolfo has some amusing character chemistry.

Chiron is such a good servant for her master.

Jeanne got caught off guard, the legendary excalibur has shined upon her, that scream was glorious, watching a maiden's eyes get defiled! yeah baby!

So I guess no episode next week? just a recap? sucks.

Preparations for the battle againts Shirou.
Looks like Sieg was really affected by the events in last episode.
Atalanta defenitely lost it.
And finally looks like Karna found out the truth about the masters.


Fucking recaps...

meh episode. The Jeanne surprise was nice. Funny though, when I read the material, it felt like it took forever to get to this point and yet, here we are, almost done with the series, or atleast up to the point where the people translating, gave up.



Its stupid that they are having a recap episode after there was one about 6 or so episodes ago. It just shows how far behind in production they are

Convenient plot - we cannot reach the fortress, but turns out Astolfo has a NP that can help them arrive there safe, but doesnt remember the name until now...
Every chapter Sieg is more Generic MC.

Lol, already even Ruler begins to move towards Astolfo / Sieg, in my memory this is the first seinen where a male character is asked about his feelings for another guy.

Well, the fact that he quietly enters his room naked, leads to certain reflections.

Well Mordred has a plane now, that helps... I don't think it is convenient plot tho, Assassin from red has (in part) something to do, remember that she literally destroyed Astolfo's NP. Also, Astolfo lost his real master, do you remember when Emiya in F/SN was summoned and couldn't remember his true name? he stated that his summoning was incomplete, I believe that's the reason why Alstofo can't remember his NP, mostly because Sieg's unstable body

Not many episodes left, the grand finale is coming (the finale everyone has something against, but not me fortunately). Also don't know where all that resentment against Astolfo is rooting. And Jannu is just to cute to be pure, or both at the same time ?

Episode was not as good as the last one though did like that scenes with Caules and Fiore as they are the only masters I like apart from Sisigou. Also was nice to see some character development from Mordred with her questioning what it takes to be a good king.

Lol there were people who still believed Astolfo was a girl.....I could have sworn I've seen them use male pronouns when referring to him (or maybe I'm just making that up in my own memory), plus I think I've seen people in previous forums clarify that he's, indeed, a dude.

Looks like we're finally headed toward the final battle.

The only reason the upcoming battle is going to be the final battle is cos the pacing of this show has become so slow that it's honestly just boring to watch at this point.

I'm pretty sure EMIYA was lying about that in F/SN so Rin didn't learn his name. His plan wouldn't have worked out if she knew (not that it worked anyways). That being said, Astolfo's master dying could still be why he forgot the name. For all his screen time, we've not really seen any of Astolfo's backstory, so that's hopefully coming up soon along with an explanation to his NP.

Well it's finally nearing the end. I think it could have been way better had the generic tropes not been implemented, but that's just my preference. There's still quite a few servants that have not been developed yet, so I assume not everyone will get developed considering how many episodes are left.

This is extremely underwhelming. Both the translation omitting half the words to save space, leaving behind meaning without much context, and the "story" itself. Third rate adolescent dialogues, *convenient* powers no one has ever forgotten before,... It is really a shame this will stay in a direct connection with other Fate entries. The industry is messed up, oh my...

Just mostly an buildup episode for the final battle coming in. I'm just gonna say despite that I did liked the build up episode... but it was kind of weird in some sense.

Her blushes are always cute though. <3

That aside, this was pretty much just a set up episode for the final battle.

Looks like Atalanta has indeed lost it.

Lol Jeanne getting a dose of full frontal Rider. Obviously he's packing some heat if she screamed that loud.

Look like in that little moment when Astoflo and Sieg met up with Jeanne, that Leticia took a brief moment as the main personality. Seemed like Astoflo noticed right away and teased her with the "not-really-a-ruler" line, and then it seemed like Sieg noticed it right at the end of the conversation but they ended the scene before he said anything more.

Now that Jack is out of the way we can get back to the main battle itself. The only way forward now is to board the hanging gardens then. Astolfo forgetting the name of her noble phantasm was a surprise. So she can only use it on a moonless light then. Three days until Astolfo can use her attack but on that day the gardens will be outside of their range. A tricky decision for Fiore for sure though. Rulers reaction of seeing Astolfo come out of the shower in Sieg's room was hillarious though. So Fiore decided to transfer her magic to her brother as a result of his advice then. The meeting between Sieg and Rider with Mordred sure was tense. Sieg's faith in humans was bound to be shaken after the battle with Jack. Its nice that despite everything Fiore and Calues are determined to see this through to the end though. Archers loyalty to Fiore and his oath to protect her was nice. Looks like the final battle between the two sides will be full of surprises and twists.

This build-up episode was pretty good, but what made it memorable, like with the previous episode, was Ruler's amusing reactions.

The main funny reaction from her was when she finally found out that Astolfo was a guy, as he walks into the living room of Sieg's room, stark naked from the shower. XD

She was also blushing again when Astolfo asked if she was interested in Sieg. Damn, I want her to confess to Sieg already before the start of the upcoming final battle, but it looks like it'll have to wait for now. >_<

Ruler is thirsty...very very thirsty...and oh Astolfo the inevitable trap! hehe
