It's probably just Archer Emiya, but of Assassin class instead.

So what is Assassin Emiya anyway? Shirou with Kiritsugu's magic crest?

General theory I've seen is that it'll be an alternate timeline EMIYA that fully embraced Kiritsugu's methods in addition to his ideals (and possibly receiving more actual training than Shirou did). The crazier guess is some version of Kiritsugu himself. Either way, if they have knowledge of the end of the fourth war, it would 100% explain them going after Irisviel. They know how dangerous the grail is and that it must be destroyed, no matter the cost.

Orrrr...it could just be same character summoned as a different class, like with Cu Lancer and Cu Caster.

Either way, the matchups here, with EMIYA in the 4th war, Iskander and Darius fighting, Old Waver and Kayneth, and Mashu/Lancelot are all stuff that fill me with fanboy glee. I'm just disappointed this is a temporary event for a cell phone game and not a longer, fuller scenario.

People have been making dad and son jokes, I also expect them to follow through on having some scenes of significance there too. Especially since Lancelot was such an important part of F/Z and how they touched upon Aurthurian legend, so Mashu/Galahad's gotta fit in somewhere with this event.

This bothered me so much I upgraded my CE storage to 115 after the Christmas event. It was a huge waste of quartz that could have gone toward not rolling anything loving good.

There is no watch guide for Tsukihime, FSN has two watchable anime (Fate/Zero and Unlimited Blade Works), and Kara no Kyokai has 8 movies. FSN is going to have Heaven's Feel movies popping out here and there, but it'll be a while before those hit.

I get the impression that they don't really care/it's not really necessary at this point. But hey, who knows?

The new animations for Gil and Arturia are really nice. I won't roll for them though and I have enough F/Z centered Servants for the event.

The fun part about going through the early story chapters again is that the power scaling is so hosed now I basically just have one decent servant and an overpowered support character murder everything while the other four just stand there and grind Bond XP.

I've been dragging three separate Cu Chulainns through Orleans and they are going to love me for it.

Carnival Phantasm, but you might want to read the Tsukihime manga first. Then wait for fate extra anime and the next fate movie to come out.

I still feel like all watching Fate/Zero first does is give you a really weird view of what the Fate series is actually like.

Unless you mean "her voice is awful", then not really because the actual Orion is seriously hoping she'll let go of him and latch on to you.

But again: awful voice. And character design.

Did anything ever come of that announcement that Shielder's VA was involved in some Fate-related anime by ufotbale (so it wouldn't include the EXTRA anime), or am I just badly misremembering things? Reading that Nasu interview makes me think there's plenty of plot in Grand Order and it could be adapted into an anime fairly easily or something.

Also, reading that interview was pretty funny because Nasu is just a naturally long-winded guy, and I can sympathize.

To the man who loves art for its own sake, it is frequently in its least important and lowliest manifestations that the keenest pleasure is to be derived.
Same for Shaft with apparently unlimited budget.

2017 looking to be a good year.
