In the first 13 days he was teaching at school, or he was sleeping or chatting with Caster at the temple. He was not very interested in the Grail, after all. Then he and Assassin are butchered by Gilgamesh, so Caster decides to steal Saber. Then she is killed too, by Gil again.

Yeah the actual problem is that she shouldn't be able to make an Excalibur copy as strong as the original, let alone stronger, let alone stronger than one with Saber Alter mana behind it (if that's supposed to be similar to the real Saber Alter). Then again, wonky doujin mechanics I guess Ilya is just better than all the servants.

Ok having never really watched that show, beyond that fight and a couple other scenes, but I think I can still give a Nasuverse answer.

Ilya much like saber has a gigantic magic circuit, but she has the added bonus of being a holy grail. Now I'm assuming that the heroic spirits (or what was left of them) that she defeats during the series get pulled into her, thus turning her into a perpetual motion machine for mana generation. Also because the heroic spirits are but shadows of their former selves, the part where she eventually breaks down and dies is probably avoided.

So basically with the crazy big magic circuit she has and the added bonus of being able to access holy grail levels of mana, she can basically pull off OP as all hell attacks if she were to transform into a heroic spirit.


TL;DR Ilya is a magical girl and friendship wins in this type of show.

Now lets talk about something other then Prisma Ilya, please.

It's simpler, she's literally channeling mana from parallel realities with Zeltretch's gem wands.

Are we ever going to see an english translation to Witch on the Holy Night? Also what ever happened to that Fate/Hollow Ataraxia voice patch that some crazy person was working on?

Also still waiting on that Heavens Feel movie or movie series, I really hope it'll be a series of movies, like Kara no Kyoukai.

I don't understand why Rule Breaker transfers ownership of a servant instead of just making the servant ownerless. Also it gives 3 command spells so with 2 people swapping back and forth you could have infinite.

Well they need more then one movie what with all the content in Heavens Feel. I'd prefer three movies to be honest, though I don't know how that would work, like how they would split the story up.

I think that's just a quirk of Caster being an extraordinary magus. It's not like Shirou took a hold of Avenger after stabbing Sakura.

The second movie would suuuuuuck, though. Unless it's literally mapo tofu scene stretched to an hour and a half.

hello
They can include all the dead ends and Taiga dojo scenes. In UBW there were scenes like Caster holding Taiga hostage that would have been cool to see the dead end. It's much more horrific knowing that everything Caster promises Shirou is true instead of assuming she's spouting generic villainous lies.

An hour and a half of intricately detailed shots of mapo tofu followed by a rundown on the entire history of the dish and several recipes would be rad and totally up Nasu's alley.

That dead end in particular is one of my favorites. If you don't choose the right option in that scene, it leads to Shirou being captured and put in some really sick incubator-thing for an unspecified amount of time until Rin comes to bail him out, and after seeing his pathetic body crumpled on the floor, she decides to leave him alone and continue the war by herself.

The best dead ends were always the ones that had super elaborate scenes before the ending, like the one in Fate where if you decide not to investigate the basement of the church, Kirei eventually makes a house call and shows Shirou the body of one of the kids in the basement before killing him, while Lancer is fighting with Saber.

No, Rin knew Shirou would die outside of the incubator/tank thing. She was mercy killing him.
