| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Just as I predicated in my season 3 preview thread, Lancer crashed and burned to death at the first turn, LMAO. I was shocked at first to see Assassin in the race, but then showed him hauling the shrine behind him.  E.T. reference!  Seihai-kun! Epic episode! |
 |
| Best episode. Except with Shirou's cheating. ;_; Rider should have won that. |
| lmao @ Assassin talking to the shrine. And Saber acted so cute when she first saw the Lion-Go :3 Was expecting Rider to win, but the ET reference was awesome anyway. Grand Prix > Game Show |
 |
| Felt a bit cheated at the end of the race but it was amazing anyways. And once I saw Lancer's car, I knew that he's gonna crash and burn early on and yup, spot on. |
 |
| The best ep, together with Berserker and batteries. The lyrics of that song that started playing when Assasin was falling X))) Oh, and GilGil Machine, golden of course. Also felt a bit cheated with how the race ended (Shirou's such a cheater... as always), but the wish they made at the end somewhat made up for that ('We want our money back'). |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| definetly best episode! i loved watching it! 5/5 |
| This was the best episode yet XD |
 |
| When Shirou was inserting the coins from behind I was thinking something else, especially since Saber started blushing. Oh, Rider, indeed, you rule. ET reference was hilarious. Oh, you Assassin, finally got some lines. Also, loved Gilgamesh <3 |
| Dutch anime blogger with a love for Ikuhara's antics and proper storytelling. |
| I loved it, I think it was the best episode, hillarious xDDD Lancer died, again T_T Assassin was hillarious XDDD Looks like Rider's name isn't just for show xDDD I still can't stand Shiro XP |
| This is too funny for words. Hilarious episode, I really rofl'd. Knight Rider truck was awesome. |

| Frigging hillarious! When it was announced that the grail war was a race i already could see it comming, but when berserker changed into a car and Illya screamed Berser-Car i couldn't help but laugh anyway =D Further we had Rider shining for a while, Lancer dieing again and Gilgamesh coming to ruin it all oncemore. Best one so far imo. |
 |
| Oh my god. I loled so hard in this. Best episode for sure. The ending was awesome :3 I was really curious to see who would win i couldnt accept that Saber was out like that~ |
 |
| Seihai-kun!!! |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Freaking hilarious! Indeed, best episode so far. "Friendmaker!" XD |
| The best friendmaker anyone could ever ask for. |
| another awesome episode...well worth the wait as excruciating it may be to wait for maor to be subbed. |
| I pretty much died laughing out loud. It's not hard to me to choose between Berserker's first errand or the Grand Prix race that has been the most hilarious episode on Carnival Phantasm. Brilliantly made. The E.T. reference was just pure brilliant, I didn't expect that at all. Sinji has to be the most unlucky master in the franchise. Great episode all together, with some awesome moments and laughing material. Getting dangerous if they keep up with it. People might die out laughing too much. I barely couldn't breath when Assassin entered and exited the race. |
 |
| -Saber's reaction towards Unit Lion = <3 -LOL. Poor Lancer died..again .__.; -Gilgamesh in his motorycle <3 -Wow. Rider is unbelievably fast with the granny bike. -WOW. Shirou totally cheated .__.; -Couldn't help but lol @ Seihai-kun talking to Shinji |
| hands down the funniest episode yet and how could you not love the saber greatness!,but i kinda wanted granny bike to win lol. |
 |
| Saber's not really that funny. Same with Sakura. They are better characters for me than Rin, but in the context of a comedy/parody anime, Rin works better, because she has less baggage to laugh at. |
| Shiro, give me 100 yen |
It's not breaking in if the door is unlocked. |
| Many Sponsors at the race start. Really loled Saber's lion and Ilya's Berser-Car. Lancer Dying on the first corner. Assassin Carrying the whole temple just to enter the race. Gilgamesh playing his Golden Xbox. Rider Overtaking Gils Motorcyle and Rins Car. And Shirou Cheating at the end Great episode one of the funniest episode so far. too bad there's no tsukihime characters on this episode. |
| definitely best episode so far. |
| Assassin was carrying the temple gates, not the whole temple. Still lol, he really loves his gate. And also, Shirou, you really are quite the cheater huh. He traced Caliburn at the end did he not? Archer should have traced one of his swords too. |
 |
| saber unit lion GO!!!!!! Saber was awesome and cute and Rin was cool and cute really great episode and the return of berser-car!!!! |
 |
| Trace ON.. LOL, what a cheater.. We want.. our money back ROFL. I Literally ROFL'd when i saw the temple inside Assassin's car HAHAHA, that made my January. |

Leon-Gun said: I actually hoped Gil would counterattack with GoB when Archer was tracing swords and firing it at Gil back in the middle of the race. Would have been a fine battle there. Still, Gil has some good riding skills. I'd rank it B or A.Assassin was carrying the temple gates, not the whole temple. Still lol, he really loves his gate. And also, Shirou, you really are quite the cheater huh. He traced Caliburn at the end did he not? Archer should have traced one of his swords too. |
| |
| Friendmaker huh? Guess the one they used in School Days didn't work right. Best one yet. The return of the BerSerCar, the GilGilMachine, and yeah was looking for Rider to win. They may as well have one episode devoted to Assassin though.. Everyone else had one already. (or do I just watch the raws?) |

| Wow that was more intense than Redline, haven't laughed that hard in a long time! If only they made all the episodes a parody of the holy grail war as game shows, this and episode 1 are my absolute favourites so far. |
 Tonight... we are young... so let's set the world on fire, we can burn brighter, than the sun... |
| Aw come on, I wanted Rider to win that. The poor girl deserves that. Poor Lancer dies again. This guy doesn't take a break from dying. And we need more Assassin, that due almost never appears. Shirou, you are a cheater. Never expected that from you. |
| Lancer Died!! You aren't human! never gets old ^_^ Where's the new Phantasmoon show preview ? they showed a little bit of it last ep. |
| Damn this episode! Got my stomach hurting after laughing out hard the entire time...Worth the wait for this one!!! :D |
 |
| Gilgamesh totally stole Saber's ride |
  |
| epic win is epic haha~ |
 |
| The Berser-Car comment after the transformation really cracked me up. This was hilarious. |
| My god was this hilariously entertaining. The vehicle choices were superb and I just loved Saber's choice and how happy she was when she called out to Shirou for money. The Berser-car thing never gets old either. |

And I half-expected an UBW vs GoB fight too but Gil apparently was too cool to even bother with it. Looks like those 10 years weren't a waste for Gil as he found ways to amuse himself. Reading magazines, playing games, building models, all about motorcycles. Time well spent. Actually, I've been wondering how Gil spent those 10 years before the 5th war as he's pretty easily bored. |

belatkuro said: Ah that, well, most side material and such answer that Gil drank a bit of his Elixir of Youth (the same way he did in Ataraxia) and aged normally which is why he was inconcpicuous during those 10 years. Why was that not said in F/SN? Because it was probably thought up after the fact, why else.Leon-Gun said: You're gonna take those words back come Spring ;)Actually, it's sad Gil has better Riding skills than Saber does considering Saber actually has a Riding skill.

|
| And he just roamed Fuyuki like that in 10 years? Can't think how Gil did that given his attention span. He's bored of Tokiomi after just 4-5 days of the 4th war after all. Oh well, was just wondering. |
| |
Best one Yet!  |
Leon-Gun said: And I laughed about the whole 'inconspicious' thingy because, uh, I can't think of anyone with naturally red eyes (and, if we are to believe F/Z his pupils are vertical to boot) having a chance to be inconspicious in the society even if they tried... I seriously doubt Gil, being Gil, can be bothered to actually try to be as incospicious as possible.... and considering it's Japan we're talking about, a golden haired guy among naturally black haired and black eyed Japanese people is bound to stand out whether he wants it or not. Add to that his monstrous divine and royal charisma and his addiction to alchoholic beverages (a teen drinking wine and sake by bottles is a sight to behold I imagine), and you'll kinda get that there's no way he could blend in with the crowd no matter teen or adult version.Ah that, well, most side material and such answer that Gil drank a bit of his Elixir of Youth (the same way he did in Ataraxia) and aged normally which is why he was inconcpicuous during those 10 years.

| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| GILGIL MACHINE! <3 Also Lancer's death was expected! xD |
 |
| This and the first ep should be shown to my friend who's in the middle of Fate/Stay Night. I think the people around me were wondering about my sanity because I had headphones on and had to try as hard as I could not to burst into laughter every few seconds. Assassin's proposal was the best. |
