10 episodes and this anime is not that boring but not that good.

The battles are coming, I think they are going to do a good job to entertain me. I just hope so.

No fight this episode. We get to see how the loli and Shirou develop a relationship (lol). I wish that I had an imouto like that.

Ilya's kinda sweet without Berserker (with him she's like some kinda freakish lolita to me). ROFL.. LOVE THE BATH SCENE BETWEEN SHIROU AND SABER.. HILARIOUS.

Well this episode was called "The Calm Interlude" which suggests that the ruckus is about to start up. :)

Hopes this episode foreshadows a new skill. Maybe Shirou's talents lie in tracing.

Oh a fillerish lite episode... Liked it... Had humor.... Had character development, had fights between characters, had lots of words between the characs.... The anime is good so far... not great... There's something that is being left hided... I feel that... Not so sure if that's happening.... But indeed the future is promising, so I'll be sure to end this thing in time :P... So Shirou receives an upgrade this time.... Sword fighting.... A ruby from Tohsaka, who's getting to attached to him, and info on Ilyasviel von Einzbern....

Ilya.... Man.... I knew since the first moment that she wasn't a magician... she has great control, but she doesn't like like trained... and even less as such young age... She's a full fledged lolita!!! BTW... Poor girl... She's lonely... I just hope she somehow receives some love.... Managing Berserker is a pain for sure

Oh and Archer... Why he always appear by the end of the episodes???? Hahahah What's up with him... Mirroring Rin's feelings? I wanna proceed to the middle point! HUZAA

Not too bad of an episode....

I actually like most part of this episode. Though Shirou's blind determination/belief still bugs me.

This.

And well, I loved Shirou getting his ass kicked by Saber. She finally realized how stubborn he was and that the only way to make him see how inapt he was for fighting in her place was to show him with the training.
The bath seen was amazing.
I guess Rin lied to Shirou. I don't think she's playing on both sides now but if she manages to fool Shinji into believing she's with him that'll be a nice move. Gotta wait for the next episode to see.

Yeah, pretty well the same.
And Shirou walking in on Saber is priceless. Her not being embarrassed even better.

I wouldn't be surprised if Illya was messing around with Shirou.

Bath scene gave me a chuckle.

I guess Archer was trying to tell Shirou that he has to learn how to project a weapon to defeat the enemy (even though that would defy the fact that projections cannot be weapons).

Archer uses projection too. Shirou's projection, his tracing skill, is naturally high-level which means it can be used as weapon. It'll always be 1 rank below the original, since they are copies.

Also, rewatching this scene it is a bit neat that they hint who Illya's dad is even though the Fate route never outright reveals it to you either. Pay attention to the guy next to Illya and then Shirou's recollection and you can easily see it. In the game you get the hint during the last route, and you're only outright told in Fate/Zero I think.

Not sure which route we are on, but at this point it could be either Saber or Rin. Sakura seems to have dropped out of the picture. I'm going to either have to find a translated source for the VN or LN, or else speed up my studies of Japanese.

This is Fate's route which means Saber's. You can tell quite early too since the Rider scenes and Saber's reckless assault against the temple (and fight with Assassin) are all from Fate.

Thanks. I've just added the VN to my wishlist at J-list. It looks like there is an English patch available as well. Still pricey at $115, but I might just have to spring for it.

Yes, Mirror-Moon offers a translation which is pretty good. There's also an unfinished Realta Nua patch that adds almost all the CG's and a fair amount of the new music to the PC game and I'm fairly certain there's also a patch that lets you take out the H-scenes (though it doesn't add the Realta Nua soft-core replacements yet).

I wonder if Illya was being honest with Shirou or not. As I haven't read Fate/Zero I don't know the details but this kinda makes me wonder if she knows Shirou. That's quite possible. Also, I liked Illya's flashbacks. Her whole situation makes it seems like she was separated from her father.
For some reason spoiler tag won't work. :/

Gosh... What was the purpose in showing Saber naked anyway?

I want fights. I want to see more of Saber and Archer background, maybe a little of Sakaki Kojirou too. -_-

Pretty good episode, I feel that if there was a master that was completely sinister, he/she could have probably killed off like half the other masters already.

There are 2.But both of them prefer watching others suffer than killing them.And one of those 2 isnt even shown in the anime.And Lancer's

Pretty much, That Master was pretty ruthless, kinda like Kiritsugu but without all the "superhero" baggage.

82% with around 54% validated. Plus they have to do programming and shit so expect a full patch to come out in 2040... It's probably easier/faster to just learn moonspeak and play the raw version.
As a child, I was told that society is a melting pot of talents; knowledge and experience combined to form important alloys that will contribute to mankind. When I got to highschool, however, I thought that it's more like a river in which the water represents our peers while we ourselves are the stones in the river. Constant erosion by mindless majority sheeping has made us lose our unique edge. After I hit the age of 18, I realized that I've been wrong all along. Society is no melting pot. Society is no river. Society is a person, a very skilled rapist, and he has fucked us all.
