Me watching Fate/Apocrypha ep 24
Anybody named Shirou in Nasuverse is destined to lament life in a burning landscape.
Wow Shirou talk about saintly heroic goal.
When a certain person aggravates you so bad, you see a mirage of him even inside the holy grail.
Back to Jeanne bullying session.
Shakespeare: “The waiting time is over!” *throws the pocket watch to a puddle* 
This man’s level of extra is just unbelievable
Shirou comes out like a fucking supermodel on a catwalk
His Yu!Gi!Oh! phase is over now he’s into Bleach
Um why does he have to make that “MY WISH IS GRANTED” declaration as soon as he comes up
Red faction? More like Extra faction.
Well I only have like the very slightest clue of what materialization of the soul actually is but he explains it like he’s gonna make humanity a line of cheap mass produced goods
Wow rare handsome Gilles- NOPE NOPE NOPE THAT FISH FACE AGAIN
…. Why does he have to bring Sieg out again to draw any reaction from Jeanne?
Gilles/Shirou: “It’s a paradise for humanity...” Jeanne: “Uh I’m confused you might be right..” Gilles/Shirou: “And about Sieg-” Jeanne: “Nope don’t touch Sieg don’t even mention Sieg it’s cancelled your plan sucks”
Seriously why does she seem to  worry only if Sieg’s mentioned when the entire humanity is at stake here?
Shakespeare, Shirou and Gilles sure are nice they wait for Sieg to run across the entire hall to reach Jeanne.
Jeanne: “You use your entire command spells?!” Sieg: “Uh yeah” Jeanne: “GODDAMNIT SIEG”
Guys save your cheesy romance for later THE ENTIRE HUMANITY IS AT STAKE HERE WE GONNA BE BODILESS BORING SOULS
Wow I miss Chiron and Siegfried :’
77 yo war leader and a 30s serial killer : “This world is evil” Toddler homunculus: “Objection”
Wow she is touched she even sheds tears aahaaahaaa...
THAT’S WHAT I’M WAITING, GO JEANNE!
Shakespeare’s copy of Gilles is way too real to be a copy and that’s terrifying.
Shirou you definitely haven’t heard that certain quote that says “We won’t know happiness if we don’t know sadness”
Hon, Shirou, you know the last person who wishes for his action to be the last murder on earth? He ends up killing the entire world in a dimension and actually causes a town-wide fire.
When your charisma is so strong your enemy’s servant copy actually joins your party.
Wow the music sounds good.
I still think she’s actually capable of coming to that conclusion herself with or without Sieg haha
Jeanne: “Stay with me,okay?” Sieg: “That’s why I’m here” Shirou: “ENOUGH WITH THIS SOAP OPERA!!!!” *raises sword*
Wowow she’s gonna do it she’s gonna do La Pucelleeeeee
“…I might have made a big mistake summoning Gilles. I should probably   not have done that.” -Shakespeare
Wow her prayer is beautiful
We as species do not deserve Jeanne D’Arc
“Well it’s been nice having romance and all but now if you’ll excuse me, I have a humanity to save” -Jeanne
THIS GIRL IS ON FIREEEEEE SHE’S WALKING ON FIREEEEEEE
…. Why does Jeanne transform into 3rd stage outfit?? Mordred did that too last episode.
What is this, a fucking magical girl henshin?
So Magical Girl Jeanne uses sword as wand to fight. As in, she fucking holds it by the blade and shoots fire. How metal is that.
On the other side, I’m fucking happy they get it right this time the flower on the pommel blooms and catches fire
On the other other side, a long-haired girl in white dress wearing stockings wielding a sleek sword with overpowered boyfriend? Hm I feel familiar.
Wow he cuts his own arm to make a black hole? Talk about weird power
Shirou: “Don’t underestimate the power of 60 years old keikaku!!!” Jeanne: “FUCK YOU AND YOUR KEIKAKUUUUUUU!!!”
So it’s actually snowing outside or it’s just ashes?
“In the last breaths I take, I find that I don’t appreciate this seer power of mine.” -Jeanne
Thank God Laeticia is dressed it’d be fucking awkward if she’s naked when Jeanne dies.
*Jeanne dying on crying Sieg’s hands* Shirou: “So, should I strike right now?” Shakespeare: “Are you kidding me? Don’t! Wait until she dies!" Shirou: “Is she dead now?”  Shakespeare: “Please just watch the spectacle, Master”
LMAO I feel bad for laughing
“I NOW UNDERSTAND BEING ANGRY AND I DON’T LIKE IT AND NEITHER WILL ALL OF YOU” -Sieg
Now in meme. Sometimes I think I’m funny, y’know.
Yay Astolfo AND CAULES enter the scene-
Astolfo getting chained, again
“I HAVE ENOUGH BEING CHAINED TWICE IN A SPAN OF MINUTES!!!” -Astolfo
Like I said, Semi deserves an applause to tank Mordred’s NP like that.
Semi: *Appears bloody, angry, screaming* Shirou: *is a confused husband*
Caules: “If you die, Astolfo will too” Sieg: “Well that’s why you’re present” Caules: “Fuck you I’m not a spare master”
I can imagine this exchange in A-1
Dude 1: "So what is for the climax of the story?" Dude 2: “Overpowered sword fight" Dude 1: "Easy peasy we did SAO we can nail it”
I like it that Shirou still fights using black keys.
Everybody: “What are you, Sieg!?” Sieg: I AM ANGRY”
Well that pissed off face is quite an improvement in emotion display, Sieg.
a flying FLOWER HOLY CRAP
OH SO THAT’S WHY CAULES IS THERE
SO HE CAN SEE FRAN FIGHTING ONE LAST TIME
AU where Fran’s lightning missed Sieg. But well he wouldn’t fucking survived his fight with Karna would he
“You were there. You were always fighting by my side all these times.” SOB I CAN'T
FRAN, CAULES, I LOVE YOU TWO
Wow it’s a flashy sword fight with a flashy debris and occasional flying swords and lightning
“WHY AM I FIGHTING DEAD PEOPLE!?” -Shirou
Shirou: “You are angry.” Sieg: “Damn right I am.” Shirou: “Angry is for kids. I discarded anger long time ago.” Sieg: “Then prepare to be iced by anger, you sonofabitch”
Is it me or a lot of the fighting dialogues are just enemies copying each other’s characters?
“I was shot in the heart by Reika, thrice. Don’t think a sword stab will do anything to me.” -Sieg
How to kick off Blasted Tree: Choke your enemy and declare they won’t go anywhere as they will be going to hell with you
Pros: Lots of aestethic scenes in this episode, CAULES AND FRAN, LA PUCELLE, pretty cool fight
Cons: Ep 22 is still the best
Sometimes I think SiegxJeanne is the more problematic version of ShirouxSaber which is kinda problematic too for some people idk.
NEXT: A Dragon Ball

Me watching Fate/Apocrypha ep 18
Previously on The Exorcist Remake
Well this ain’t the best weekend for Atalanta huh
Is that Medea Lily?!!!
IS THAT ATALANTA WITH A BUN HOLY SHIT SHE IS BEAUTIFUL
Yeah probably I’d be very weirded out too if I can look at myself from behind
Um anybody mind giving explanation what is this occasion with Medea Lily and Atalanta and the kids?
… Even if it’s humans or gods, being born as a woman is tough, huh.
“I was saved by Goddess Artemis. Though I still wish she didn’t turn out to be aggressive whiny stalker girl.” -Atalanta
Whose idea is it again that Artemis is like THAT?
Dude ,Medea Lily and Atalanta are total cutie pies
Sieg dude of course it’s not Trifas this is not a time for captain obvious.
Why that child looks more like Jeanne more than Jeanne (Alter Santa) Lily?
She is wearing make up… Don’t tell me she is… child prostitute…?
Holy shit I have never felt so bad at saying two words.
Look at both ways before crossing is valid even from 2 centuries ago
“IT’S RAINING CHILDREN HOLY SHIT WHAT THE FUCK” -Sieg
Sieg: “People help each other to live.” Victorian slums children: “OBJECTION!!"
Their point of view ain’t wrong, but ain’t the whole truth either.
Jack really doesn’t look human with that very big head…
Um I have a question what is the reason Jeanne not having her armor? I mean, it’s nice, but why again?
Jeanne, on spirits walking down the street: “Spooky. I saw the same imagery on Caules’s horror pc game the other day.”
“I may not have my armors but I can still glow the fuck up” -Jeanne
Meanwhile Sieg is already on the curled-up, stressedTM position.
Reika stop we have heard that in Zero you ain’t Black Irisviel
Wow that was a very quick, unpleasant visit Reika.
Sieg: *Gets interrogated ‘WHERE IS MY MOM’ by the children.* Jeanne: *Gets pestered *SAVE ME HOLY SAINT LADY* by the children*
Yeah this is why Jeanne doesn’t think she’s a saint #1
Jeanne: “Time to ghostbuster* Atalanta: “Not on my watch, you bitch!”
Meanwhile Sieg manages to pop up in the most tense moment
Classily avoid the famous greek archer’s shot #justjeannethings
And this is also why she doesn’t consider herself as a saint #2
Wow Saber Gilles looks so fine when he isn’t a murderous satanic pedophile.
“I was the vanguard. I gave the signal to attack the enemies. What part of sinless is that thing?” -Jeanne
Atalanta: “You dare calling yourself a saint?!” Jeanne: “Bitch I have told every single person I met to not call me a saint. It’s like being called a president when you’re not one.”
:(
Does Jeanne think it’s awkward to exorcise a girl who looks just like her younger self?
:((
Wow they animate it right down to the biting lip till bleeding part.
:((
… Dude, it’s revised, Jack is 134 cm, a whooping 25 cm shorter than Jeanne, that doesn’t look like 25 cm apart.
:(((
Man Saori Hayami is the best her cries is so
Jack: “Are you sad?” Jeanne: “No.” Jack: “Bullshit.”
Back to the Trifas!
Atalanta stop don’t go Ju-On here
Astolfo: “I’m here! Leave your problems to me!” Sieg: “Can I give you my existential crisis?” Astolfo: “Um…”
I forget, does the Black Faction already know who she is? If not, she’s way pass her sanity to spill out her name like that.
“Humans are capable of shit, and lots of times are shits. Every single one of us. But don’t give up on us please.” -Jeanne D’Arc.
And that is the reason why I love Jeanne.
WOW CHIRON YOU SLY HORSE THAT’S SUCH MOOD BREAKER
Sieg looks so confused she just lets his hands go like that
“Now now, don’t get all too hot and bothered at 6 AM, children.” -Professor Chiron, very proud at bursting through the roof and interrupt intimate moment.
Yeah you tend not to forget a scene with children falling down the sky Sieg
This episode is so hard to be made fun of because, you know, heavy stuffs that even I couldn’t crack a joke about.
This episode in the novel is also my favorite part of the book. Because it clearly shows just what Jeanne truly thinks of her image and the extent of things she would do. And it also clearly depicts how pure Atalanta’s mindset is, a thing that never goes well in Nasuverse.
NEXT: Incoming! One package of brand new existential crisis for ……...

Me watching Fate/Apocrypha ep 17
Fiore: “She’s late.” Caules: “If I didn’t know any better, I’d say he’s getting stood up.”
Jeanne: “Let’s go on a date!” Sieg: “You mean undercover?” Jeanne: “What’s the difference?”
Fiore: “Good luck you two!” Caules: “Nee-san are you blessing them for going on undercover or date?” Fiore: “Yes”
“It’s only been 2 minutes out of the castle. Don’t make me preach about that again Sieg.” -Jeanne
Jeanne: “Leticia thinks you’re hot, Sieg” Leticia: SAINT JEANNE NOOOOOOOOOO!!!
There is something rather sad that Jeanne always genuinely talks and prioritizes Leticia’s feelings but also all of that is also hers so…..
If I were involved in that grail war, I’d guess that Reika is also evil instead of, you know, what everybody in this show guesses…
“It’s our dream to have a family and play piano and get to kill people everyday” -Reika and Jack
HAHAHAHA VLAD SOUVENIRS
Jeanne: “So it’s only me who is interested in this date huh.” Sieg: “Well for the record I don’t know how to do anything that is not fight or rebellion.”
These two dorks omg they are working hard to make a good date undercover
Hm so does it mean that Sieg often asks Chiron philosopical questions and Chiron goes professor mode on him?
Wow Jeanne (sure as hell it’s not Sieg) has incredible social skills to mingle with local citizens I mean I can’t even talk to one whenever I have an outing.
Jeanne: “How nice, a wedding.” Sieg: *having existential crisis for 100th time*
Hmm I’m a bit disappointed that she didn’t say she was practically one of the boys
Wait how did he get that white rose? Like, did one fell on the wedding bouquet?
Oooo Sieg my boi “humans are amazing" you’re gonna regret that word soon
Jeanne: “How many times I have to say this please do NOT refer me as a saint it’s embarrassing.” Sieg: “But you’re literally canonized.“
“Sieg you’re like our baby we like to watch you grow and also worry a lot about it” -Jeanne
Sigh Jeanne, even if he’s like, that, and almost everybody dislikes him, he’s still Nasuverse protagonist he headbutts every problem without thought.
Life lesson from Jeanne D’Arc. You don’t get that everyday.
See, that’s what I like about her character.
Sieg: “You’re doing your best.” Jeanne: “I don’t feel well being praised by a person who is like 5 years old”
The hanging garden has literal gardens in it.
Shirou: “Whattcha doin?” Achilles: “Sitting.” Shirou: “I’m not fucking blind Achilles.”
Ah so this is the Achilles test people have been talking about?
The angrier Shirou becomes, the deeper his voice gets
Wow this is another mirroring huh, this time between Shirou and Jeanne
Both were executed. Shirou was all “I hate you God, I hate you people” but then he casts that hatred and pursues salvation for these screwed up humanity. Whereas Jeanne was “People are both good and evil. God was even crying.” and leaves it as it is.
Pretty beautiful comparison, if I may say.
“You’re insane. So you pass.” -Achilles
Achilles: “You’re aiming at me when I talk to Shirou” Semiramis: “Just doing my job as a servant” Achilles: “More like as an overprotective wife.”
Semiramis, the Queen of Assyrian, the oldest poisoner, angry at being called cute.
Semi you know who else hates being called cute by Achilles? *whisper* Pen-the-si-le-a
“IS EVERY SERVANT IN THIS PLACE SCHEMING TO TEASE ME?!!!” -Semiramis, at some point
The music is so good.
Thank God that stupid line doesn’t make it to the anime
I mean, it serves as shipping material, and that’s it..
But still, that kinda breaks the dramatic tension -_-
Those men be like “Wow boy that’s just wow” and I live with that
Astolfo’s working mood goes from 0 to 120 REAL QUICK.
Um, you two, maybe this time is the one right time to hold hands. The mist is damn thick.
THE ONE TIME IT IS RIGHT TO HOLD HANDS, YOU DON’T HOLD HANDS
Reika deserves an oscar with that acting
Reika normal people runs away when a person doesn’t die from 3 heart shot.
“I HAVE ENOUGH OF PEOPLE SHOOTING/STABBING ME ON THE HEART.” -Sieg
…. What are those dropping down? Teeth? Scales?? I have questions???
Jack: “You should’ve been mince meat by now.” Jeanne: “No if you’re a servant of God.”
That. That is one of the ultimate reasons why Jack is scary. She is a kid. She is the symbol of child’s suffering. But she ain’t friendly with kid.
Chiron, you had one job.
If Reika is not batshit crazy she’d make a very good mother.
Why is everybody in this show go for the heart rather than the head?? Like, why not the two of them, if heart is that important?
… For someone who just has been shot in the heart, Reika is talkative huh.
Jack’s crying is so sad :(
Even mama bear Atalanta has her limits
HOLY SHIT IT’S THE EXORCIST SHIT
ATALANTA ABORT ABORT
Wow Jack that’s fucking spooky eyes
Welcome to London 19th centuries, where it is not as dandy as Black Butler.
NEXT: Exorcizamus te omnis immundus spiritus

Me Watching Fate/Apocrypha ep 19
Come up with a plan crazier than “We will attack an ancient Babylonian flying fortress with Boeing 737s” I’ll wait
Astolfo: “I wanna be the pilot!” Fiore: “We prioritize safety above everything.” Astolfo: “Booo.”
Astolfo: “Man I wish I can remember my noble phantasm’s true name then it’d be all easy peasy we’d win right away” Literally everyone: “I have never heard a sentence more irresponsible than the one just coming out of your mouth."
Haha Astolfo be like “C’mon it’s not like I’m so hopeless at least I know the conditions to trigger my memory” and then everybody’s like “What are you? A self-aware amnesiac?"
Mordred is so cool resting her arm on Kairi’s shoulder such a proud child
Ah the culmination of Forvedge arc!!!! It’s also one of my favorite parts of the novels!
Fiore: “Caules goddamnit stop making me panic I’m screaming inside already” Caules: “If you’re already screaming inside with just me reciting everything that’s against us then you’re not fit to work under pressure.” Fiore: “You little shit.”
“Nee-san, choose. Become a cinnamon roll, or a sinnamon roll. You can’t be both.” -Caules
Wow that’s an incredibly humane answer from Fiore.
I like how Caules’s voice goes from cold to soft in 0.1 second
“Well you’re a rare 100% kind, normal sister in Nasuverse. I’d rather kill anyone than to let you stop being like that.” -Caules
And the mood is suddenly changed by the appearance of naked Astolfo and his man part.
“SHE HAS A DICCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK” -Jeanne D’Arc, The Maid of Orleans, on discovering a trap
Jeanne, my girl, I think you just have been… TRAPPED!
The castle of Yddgmillennia had never been shook so hard as it had been by Jeanne’s scream
Astolfo: “GYAHAHA she thinks I’m a girl all along! It’s hilarious!” Sieg: “Say that to the hundred of people who check on your typemoon wiki page because they don’t believe you’re a guy.”
In the novel Astolfo is annoyingly lavish he just buys anything he sees on street and Sieg regrets everything
WoW Mordred that’s a ton of food you’re eating
Mood: Mordred frowning at people while still munching a steak
I don’t understand why Jeanne is not in this room? Like, she helps a lot in this scene in the novel as well??
I think Gordes is also in this room too in the novel but let’s face it, it’s Gordes
Dude c’mon it’s not like she’s only there to brood over Sieg and Laeticia I’m disappointed
She guides Caules in his painful magic operation thing and lent him a holy shroud to ease the pain in the novel BITCH THAT’S A LOT TO DO.
Also I’ve always been curious at the shroud is that too much to ask :(
Chiron: “Usually this kind of thing is done little by little.” Caules: “Ever heard the stories of students finishing 8 essays in a single night? If they can cram that much, so can I.”
You know, I like this transfer ritual scene that happens in Caules’ mind so much. It’s like it so much when he says “I was there too.” I like it so much when little!Fiore hands him the leash of the dog, symbolising her passing the responsibility to him, and him accepting the burden of it.
Like, literally this transfer ritual does not have anything to do with the need of power up, family tradition, magic superiority and shits like that. It’s treated as accepting responsibility and all the pain that comes from it.
Tho I wish this scene has a flash back of little!Caules too haha
Fiore: “U ok?” Caules: “I aM FiNE bELiEVe mE” Chiron: “That doesn’t sound like fine. Here, drink this medicine.” Caules: “nO I aM a MaN I dO nOT TaKE mEDiCiNe” Fiore: “…Think maybe we botched it?”
“You said I’m a rare 100% kind Nasuverse sister. You’re also a rare 100% kind, normal Nasuverse brother. So I’m damn proud of you.” -Fiore
Astolfo be like “I appreciate you’re buying me a pie, Master, but still I don’t want to eat anything even my pie in front of this punk ass gluton”
Sieg: “What do you think of human?” Mordred: “Slightly cleverer than animals. Usually driven by lust, greed, or a mixture of two. Mostly they just do whatever they want. So yeah, slightly cleverer animals."
Mood #2: Astolfo frowning when slurping his entire orange juice.
Hm I think this cafe scene is way more tense in the novel and it makes way more sense than this but that’s just me I think?
Astolfo: “So you wanna be good king or bad king?” Mordred: “Good king, of course.” Astolfo: “THAT’S IT I KNOW YOU’RE EV- Wait what?”
I love how with just a glance we know that it is not Jeanne but Laeticia, their body languages is way too different.
Astolfo: “Sure you’re not hiding anything?” Laeticia: “Huh I don’t, what do you mean, of course I don’t hide anything” Astolfo: “Swear to God?” Laeticia: “Ugh that’s cheating”
“Well, I know you like Sieg, but since I too want to bang him, and you’re not even Jeanne in the first place, you won’t get much support from me” -Astolfo
Sieg be like “Hm since when you two are very touchey feely? Are you trying to make a new ship?”
I know someone somwhere is shipping Jeanne and Astolfo don’t lie to me
Hm I don’t know what to make out this they don’t make it clear that it is Laeticia whereas Sieg even addressees her with her name instead of Jeanne’s.
I just feel so blessed watching the Forvedge siblings bond it’s so beautiful and pure
Look at them they are both so similar to each other so stubborn.
Hm I kinda feel annoyed that they don’t state that Caules is also providing Chiron prana which makes him technically his master too but whatever.
Fiore: “You’re the one who taught Caules the cinnamon-sinnamon speech, aren’t you?” Chiron: “Well it’s the easiest way to make him understand your condition.”
Fiore: “I don’t have the guts to be a magus, huh?” Chiron: “You treated me as a human being. If it’s any consolation, the rest of black faction’s masters barring your bro did exactly the opposite. 4 died, 1 became a long running humiliating joke. So you did the right thing.”
OH MY GOD CHIRON IS SO SWEET FIORE YOU ARE SO LUCKY
Chiron don’t apologize pretty sure men today don’t have half of your courtesy so
If that scene with Fran and Caules does not make it to the screen I’ll rage quit- OH MY A FLOWER PETAL
SCRATCH THAT THIS IS ALSO SAD :(
The storytelling in the novel was incredibly sad but the anime take on is also clenching my heart
Tho I’d like the scene of Fran throwing the flowers while Caules looks from the windows that’d be so beautiful
But I’ll settle with this holy shit he’s like that it’s like she never goes anywhere all these times like ugh my heart
Caules goes from “I dunno man, I don’t even want to do a war” to “I’ll go through this war until the end, even if there is no business left for me in it”
Brooding Jeanne.
Jeanne that’s called “being in love” get over it.
Mordred be like “Damn that trap and that fake saber they give me contagious existential crisis”
Mordred: “I have no idea how to surpass the King of Knights.” Me: First, don’t have a clone of yourself. Or tens of clones, for that matter.
Kairi: “I know you both love and hate your dad.” Mordred: “WHAT- THE FUCK ARE YOU SAYING?” Kairi: “C’mon, your noble phantasm is literally named after your dad. Nobody names their treasure after the name of someone they hate.”
Kairi, for the 50th time, being a better dad to Mordred than Artoria ever was.
…I DIDN’T EXPECT AN ATALANTA AND ACHILLES SCENE HOLY SHIT
I don’t think he manages to console her in the novel? At least not onscreen. THIS IS MUCH APPRECIATED.
He looks very concerned of her :((
Well makes sense. He just gave her a disappointing answer. Probably noticed she is already corrupted too. And he can do jack shit about it.
Oh Karna if looks could kill yours would kill anyone a thousand times
Shakespeare is literally anyone who’s been working on something overnight: “MORNING HAS COME. THE LAST MORNING HAS COME. IT ALL ENDS HERE.”
Semiramis chilling in her garden, probably missing Shirou. Most likely.
While everybody has a scene in this ‘dawn before the last battle’, Shirou is nowhere to be seen
I’ll bet my money he’s still hijacking the system of the grail, with Rihanna singing ‘Work Work Work Work Work’ in the background
Mordred’s idea to name a plane is “Saber” in red paint. Now who’s going to tell her that there is another red Saber with the same exact face as her?
Personally I think this episode doesn’t really convey the intensity of both Forvedge Magic Transfer arc and Last Dawn arc like there are so many things that I love from the intensity itself that isn’t present in the anime but you know, novel > screen adaptation is a given.
Still mad Jeanne isn’t present at the magic transfer and only spends time brooding.
NEXT: Remember that crazy plane vs flying fortress? Let’s do it.

Me watching Fate/Apocrypha ep 15
Wow that’s how the fortress look like in bright day. It’s magnificent.
Meanwhile in Red household, Shirou and Semiramis have to face the rebellious phase of their adopted children Achilles, Karna and Atalanta. While useless uncle Shakespeare is nowhere to be seen.
Karna is just the best roast machine ever.
Semiramis getting roasted by Karna and she doesn’t take it well.
Atalanta: “I have no compassion for a weak master” Achilles: “I am strong. So you have a compassion for me?” Atalanta: “Please clean your ears.”
Shirou’s voice is incredibly sweet and silk like, perfect for a person like him.
Shirou: “Kids, let’s all sit down and talk about each other’s future dreams, okie dokie?”
Achilles wants to prove he is a hero without any deconstruction whatsoever in Nasuverse.
Semiramis: “Aw that’s bland” Shirou: “Sssh do not sass here, honey’ Achilles: “Yeah but I’ve got gigantic ego just like yours, mom” Semiramis: “Are you all inclined to roast me everyday?"
Atalanta wants to save children. Atalanta wants to be a mama bear.
Semiramis: “That’s pipe dream, Atalanta.” Me; That’s rich. You support a guy whose goal is save mankind.
Dude Karna is so fucking extra.
Karna wants to be loyal. And fights Saber of Black again. And burns everyone who stand  in the way.
Shirou may speak like that but his insides all make calculations of how to possibly get rid of Karna he’s too dangerous
Is Gordes only around to roar with laughter and say “Impossible!!” or “Stupid!!"?
Holy grail for dumb wishes. Wow that’s some self-awareness going on Mordred.
Yeah corrupted or not, the problem with the holy grail granting wishes is if the method of the fulfilment is a disaster to mankind we have a very depressing Fate/Zero episode just for that.
Caules forgetting Archer of Red is so cute
"Atalanta: The power woman" Short lecture by Chiron.
Mordred: “Yeah after I chop Sieg’s head off” Astolfo: *stand on chair* OVER MY DEAD FUCKING BODY” Caules: *for a split second* Please, not now.
Chiron's Papa instinct is tingling
FINALLY the Forvedges arc comes!!
Thank God they animate this scene in the same location as the novel
“Mages are sinnamon roll. But Fiore is cinnamon roll too pure for this world.” -Chiron
Little Forvedges!!!
CRAP LIL CAULES IS CUTE
Lil Fiore is loaded with cuteness 300% than normal child.
The novel explains that the dog is skinned alive in front of Fiore and Caules and that’s fucked up
Also it happens because their dad wanted to show what happens if their magic fails and that’s how Fiore becomes flawless in her magic because she is so afraid of the failure that could be. She is so traumatized in her childhood she needs Caules to hold her hands just to sleep, and will puke at the sight of meat. Honestly? That’s a shitton character background not to be shown.
“After that incident with the dog, I made sure she never touched, saw, or even heard of the Fullmetal Alchemist.” -Caules, probably.
Caules: “Why do you care?” Chiron: “Because I am eternally a teacher.”
I almost thought Caules just made up some cool shit but then I think a bit and yeah that’s right
OH MY GOD CAULES IS SO CUTE GRINNING LIKE THAT I CAN’T
Dude, Chiron is just the embodiment of ‘Learning is forever"
He brings up Fran again :(((((
What makes it so sad and ultra sadder in the novel is that the thing that makes Caules-Fran team so great is also the very thing that burdens him when she’s gone.
Hell the novel narrates simply that he regretted that his servant is Fran, because from the beginning to end they could and had care for each other and that didn’t allow him to just nonchalantly shrug everything away.
No Caules he’s Eternal Professor Chiron he can’t quit from that and he won’t.
Yeah sleep you deserve the rest.
Mordred: “I thought transferring command spells would AT LEAST involve sprouting gigantic wings and sparkles and catchy dance while you blow it away to my master’s hands!” Jeanne: “….. You watch too many magical girl henshin”
Mordred vs Astolfo: Trash talk edition
Jeanne: “Use it just TWICE. Do NOT use the last command spell, okay?” Sieg: “Why?” Jeanne: “JFC “WHY"? YOU DIED TWICE, TRANSFORM TWICE, AND THIS IS NASUVERSE MIRACLES AIN’T FREE SHIT HERE” Sieg: “Maybe I can cheat around it.” Jeanne: “HOLY SHIT LISTEN HERE U LIL SHIT”
Jeanne: “…I can’t believe I’m kinda rooting for these two idiots.”
Why does Jeanne like to hold his hands? Like this is too many times?
KAIRI BACKSTORY IS SUCH A STUD.
“My ancestors thought they could get around with a devil’s deal and imo, they were fucking stupid.” -Kairi
They didn’t explain more about Kairi’s short-lived marriage that is, personally speaking, completely fucked up
At least they explain about his stepdaughter tho.
That is such a beautiful father-daughter bonding they are so similar it breaks my heart.
Mordred: “You remember your dead kid?” Kairi: “I won’t ever forget.” Mordred: “Sold. You’re my father now.”
Wow that’s a lot of hair to brush Jeanne I’d love to brush it for you.
Jeanne D’Arc, 16, The Maid of Orleans, experiencing first love.
Gordes, training to be a decent person, finally.
“We just want to play honorable magic real-life chess, not things like saving humanity and eternal salvation!” -Gordes
Female Leader Homunculus is just composed of savage comments and roasts I love her so much.
I’d like an omake of Gordes naming each and everyone of the homunculus and ran out of idea so he asked Caules to open babynames.com
Useless uncle Shakespeare visits AKA team and brings drama to their chill
Atalanta: “So do you think Shirou’s nuts?” Shakespeare: “Do you care if your protagonist is nuts or not?” Atalanta: “I knew it, you are nuts.”
It’s chilling that everything Shakespeare says in this scene, as grandiose and dramatic as he spells it, is perfectly reasonable within the context of storytelling and to my horror, I do agree with him.
Broken hero? Check. Lost everything? Check. Named a saint yet not a saint? Check. Wants to save 6 billion people which is such a grand number? Check. Guess what, Shirou’s story is fucking interesting.
On a side note, the trio makes the balcony their favorite hangout space like?? It’s precious as fuck??
Shirou: *ominous monologue*
DUDE I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SHIROU’S COMMAND SPELL TO APPEAR IN THE TITLE.
I’ve always wanted to say this. Jeanne and Shirou’s ruler command spells each look like a pair of wings. While Sieg’s looks like a single wing. 
Next: Jack who?

Me watching Fate/Apocrypha ep 12
This week on X Files
Did Shirou ask Semiramis to include a church altar in her fortress?
At a glance, the Einzbern master and Past!Shirou look a lot like Irisviel and Kiritsugu huh?
I can never tire of Zouken despairing that shithead deserves suffering in every timeline
Shirou where the hell were you you are late to the tragedy
Well a Justiaze clone paired with a spiky dark haired guy would always be dying at his arms and not dying alone in a tank and I don’t know if it’s happy or fucking sad :(((
Semiramis lowkey places Shirou’s wish above everyone’s and even her own wishes and that’s pretty cute tbh
Like I said, for a fight to death, Karna vs Vlad is real polite with occasional savage burn.
Applause to Karna, for he is not in ‘Hit them when they gloat’ team
Darnic: *Argues* Vlad: *Argues* Karna: “Maybe I should get a popcorn”
Oh, in the end, Darnic’s view towards Vlad is not very different than Gordes’ towards Siegfried huh.
Yeah Vlad I know being a Lancer is suffering but hey at least you get to stab your own shitty master instead of yourself
Wow Darnic you’re a grade A asshole even Karna is judging you
Is it just me or Darnic’s voice is suddenly rather funny when screaming and gloating at high pitch like that?
I feel sorry for Vlad already
Um Karna maybe you should hit him when he gloats before…
Darnicula: “Now excuse me I have a grail to be won over!”
Darnicula: *trying to turn Achilles* Chiron: “NOT ON MY WATCH YOU BITCH”
Aw look Chiron and Achilles still love each other despite everything :’)
Chiron: *lecture* *lecture* “See, is that what you want to become?” Achilles: “No, Sensei.” Chiron: “Good.” 
Chiron be like “I didn’t get summoned into this world for a vampire apocalypse”
Jeanne: “Surprise, bitches! I bet you thought you had seen the last of me.”
In case you don’t like Caules already, dude gets on his feet to search for Fiore even with all that grief and broken glasses and lips and that doesn’t go unnoticed by Fiore like this is siblings goal in a fucking type moon series man
He still flinches at the mention of Berserker :((
I guess Celenike really doesn’t give a shit towards anyone and anything she doesn’t even bother to show up at family meeting
Gordes getting his shit together
Fiore as Commander #2
Jeanne: “I implore you guys to fight together against this vampire” Atalanta: “Oh, you asking as a Ruler?” Jeanne: “No, as a saberface.”
Karna’s “This vampire is the enemy of us heroes” is the best you know Boi you could be the Naruto of this franchise
It’s so satisfying to see servants team up they are like The Avengers but historical figures servants hm maybe The Servangers?
Karna: “To ashes, vampire.” Darnicula: “No fucking way” Karna: “Did you forget I can nuke with the sun?”
Oh I forgot Karna is already the Itachi
No AKA Team you were doing real awesome job :((
It’s a bit funny that Atalanta’s ears get wrinkled
Yeah in case anybody still somehow thinks Shirou is good guy, which is I’m certain is only 0.9%, here is a very suspicious scene
Jeanne and Chiron be like “Why are we two the only one sane enough to fight here?”
Jeanne: “Am I summoned because of the vampire?” Me: No babe Fate/Zero ain’t got a Ruler and you’re in for a very rude surprise
THE RETURN OF THE HOLY SHROUD :DD
Darnicula: “You’re from Fuyuki war! And why are your hair white?” Shirou: “Fashion.”
Wow Shirou that’s a very cold voice
You know the last person I know who chants exorcism rites with such an emotionless voice? Nobody. Not even the Winchester boys.
I feel a bit jumbled inside bc Vlad is powerful, Darnicula even more so the Servangers have to be formed to fight him, but he is killed just like that by Shirou and not because Shirou’s strong and such but because he’s got access on holy weapons and that is the power of resource I guess
Shirou did you just flirt with Jeanne??!
Haha Shirou be like “That’s no way to speak to your elder, Junior-chan”
Jeanne: “If you’re Ruler then why’re you breaking rules? There is a damn Rule in Ruler.” Shirou: “Chaotic good I guess” Jeanne: “Chaotic good my ass”
Honestly boy, if you say it like that nobody will believe you will actually save humanity.
Yeah The Holy Man Returns VERY Triumphant just look at that shroud and that smug smile
By the way why is the title template back to the old one? I don’t understand.
The Servangers and the Holy Shroud are the highlight of this episode
Tbh is it just me or is it always so dark I can’t see every action going on within the fights
NEXT: Remember when I say there are only two sane men? Yeah.

Me Watching Apocrypha ep 14
Avicebron having faith crisis
Why do a ton of people in Fateverse have hero complex like dude that never goes well
“This world is hell, therefore I will bring the paradise here” If this isn’t Nasuverse, this sounds so idealistic and hopeful. Otherwise, it’s just ominous.
Kairi: I wanna smoke. *take one* Kairi: “Wait this ain’t cool space to smoke” *pockets it again*
Kairi: “Child you feel funny after doing some good deeds?” Mordred: “Shut up I do what I want” Kairi: “That’s fine I feel awkward too after being good”
And that people, is why this team is decent from the very beginning. Even if Mordred runs around screaming and swearing.
Caules is a real nice boss I’d like Caules to be my boss
Jeanne: “SIIEEGGG-KUUUUNNNN” Sieg: “Oh shit”
HAHA Caules be like “Wtf did I just see? Is there something important happening between the two that I should have known??” I feel u bro
…. Does Jeanne have to corner Sieg in that position? Like? Huh?? Surely there is another more comfortable position than that to lecture him???
Jeanne: “War is hell” Sieg: “But I still have to do it” Jeanne: “Listen here u little shit that’s why war keeps happening”
Jeanne be like “Boi I can’t treat you fairly when I have this rather weird blossoming feeling thing inside of me”
Chiron: “Y’know, Avicebron wanted to sacrifice you to power up his noble phantasm” Gordes: “WHATT?! AND YOU ALL KNEW IT?!” Chiron: “Well you’re too incompetent so he dropped you.” Gordes: “WHAAAATT??!"
It’s chilling that Avicebron doesn’t have a slightest emotion in his voice when dismissing his own master like that.
Roche: “You betrayed me!” Avicebron: “Not really, I have no interest in the grail anyway” Roche: “Yeah but you’re killing me now so it’s BETRAYAL.”
“My master is nice to me. It’s just me that’s an absolutely awful human being.” -Avicebron, on why he kills Roche.
Avicebron takes avoiding eye contact to the next level: By wearing 100% covered mask. How does he even breath with that on?
Yo shut up you know he doesn’t even think of you betraying him because a) he really admires you and b) he is socially inept
Yeah Roche I too still wonder why he wants to make a human if he hates human.
But probably that is why Roche-Avicebron pairing ultimately fails, because not unlike Gordes-Siegfried, they don’t truly acknowledge each other as a person with a will of their own. All that links them is golem.
Or that’s my own opinion.
Um I imagined the garden that sprouts wherever Adam walks is the kind of real beautiful flower meadow. I’m pretty disappointed, actually.
SEE THIS IS WHY HERO COMPLEX IS BAD
"Yo Master let’s have some gay moment under the moon" -Astolfo
Astolfo: “So what did you talk with Jeanne before?” Sieg: “Just war-is-hell stuffs.” Astolfo: “Hmmmm, nothing else? Like, y’know, love stuff or something?”
I almost thought it was Kairi but it is Fiore, the proper lady of Yddgmillenia, firing some magic machine gun-slas-mechanical tentacle
Astolfo is funny doing the hand moving when annoyed thing
No Avicebron, Astolfo is right, that mud puppet doesn’t bring anything close to salvation.
OH GOD CHIRON YOU ARE SO SAVAGE I LOVE YOU.
In a sense, Avicebron dies, but he dies so happy because his wish comes true.. He wins his own war. I feel so mixed.
Adam: *howling* Everybody: “Goddamn his breath stinks”
HAHA that patting Hipogriff’s head is so cute
Caules: “ASTOLFO IF YOU DARE DROPPING MY SIS I WILL WRECK YOU”
I always like Jeanne-Chiron teamwork they are very level headed and efficient and less screaming more doing.
Fiore: “You have any item to beat it?” Astolfo: “Nope!” Fiore: “But you are the magic Doraemon!”
Chiron: “We need another servant” Jeanne: “Gotcha I’ll call Mordred brb” *phone Mordred* "Mordred come here we need you” Mordred: “Don’t wanna” Jeanne: “We have a monster to kill” Mordred: “Don’t go anywhere I’m coming”
Servangers 2.0: Let’s all be the best of friends for now
The command seal negotiation is funnier in the novel because Kairi urges Mordred to do that and she doesn’t even have a clue if the seal can be transferred or not.
Sieg be like "Mordred you’re the last member don’t go giving commands to us"
I kinda think Mordred is really cute in this episode. Like, drawn cute. When not screaming, anyway.
THE HERO WHO DOESN’T FEAR GOD THAT IS HIM, ASTOLFO!!!!
I never watch SAO, only seen some clips and openings, but pretty sure that double attack looks like something out of SAO than anything else.
….. Um, that looking away from explosion scene is way too awkward for me…
AAAAAH They censored it :(( Originally Mordred flips the bird instead of thumbs down and it is epic
Jeanne running into Sieg and holding his hands and Mordred looks at them both with a look way saltier than the sea.
“Wait you do romance stuffs? When? How? What? How?”
The scene pans out and magically Mordred is gone.
The fight scene is gr8, I like the focus on Jeanne, love it even more with Astolfo, but the looking away from explosion scene is just ???
Also look, I believe I am not as salty and quick to grab pitchfork when it comes to Jeanne x Sieg. In fact, I slightly like the pairing even with the bad writing.
BUT Just because you alter how they first meet doesn’t mean you can shove them towards each other in every single scene that’s NOT HOW YOU ROMANCE GDI.
The music is relaxing, the scenery is peaceful, but the tension between Kairi and Fiore is still as menacing as ever.

Me watching Fate/Apocrypha ep 16
Wow I didn’t expect the opening would be brutal interrogation by skimpily dressed 7 years old
Sakura Tange voices her and I can’t help but always thinking Sakura Kinomoto commits serial killing and that’s fucked up I’m
On that stick is written “Jeanne here, peace out”
Aww yes internal meeting between Jeanne and Leticia… that doesn’t involve being naked.
"That level of forgiveness is out of this world, Jeanne.” -Leticia
Leticia: “Was it okay to let Sieg join the battle after all?” Jeanne: “He’s a Nasuverse protagonist he’d mindlessly charge into any mess head first”
To be honest this scene is beautiful the song is hauntingly melancholic.
Sieg. Homunculus. Master. Part-time servant. Part-time nurse.
Sieg: “You look pale.” Jeanne: “I’m just remembering my internal crisis discussion with another girl inside me”
Wew blackening.
Chiron. Centaur. Servant. Teacher. Doctor. Father. Commander. Butler- Dude, just make a linkedin account.
Sieg: “You were right. Miracles ain’t free.” Jeanne: “YES THANK LORD YOU FINALLY GET IT”
Chiron: “Siegfried’s heart is eating Sieg.” Jeanne: “Dude you don’t mean he’d become Darnicula 2.0? That abomination was ugly as fuck” Sieg: “That’s what you’re worrying about?”
He looks so chubby in this scene (1)
Chiron: “Sieg you ain’t a magical girl. You can’t just henshin anytime, look frilly, and get to live.”
Chiron you such a papa. He be like “He’s a human being now. Let him grow.”
While Jeanne looks at Astolfo and for once they reach an agreement on how this would suck.
Astolfo: “Just stay put, alright?” Sieg: “But I’m the protagonist you can’t just keep me inside a room I have to save everyone.”
Astolfo be like “Dude don’t get arrogant when you’re technically 5 years old or something.”
Fiore is so damn cute omg.
“Ruler’s job is actually being The matron of all the servants. One go bad, spank them.” -Jeanne, probably
Seriously, Fiore is just way too kind for this wretched Yddgmillenia position.
HAHAHA HOLY SHIT THIS EPISODE IS LITERALLY TITLED JACK WHO
Everyone’s memory of Jack is blurred because of child protection censorship.
Oh okay, so from here on and probably until the end of the episode I actually have never read this part in the novel because no available translation.
Astolfo and his (in)famous purple outfit!
Does that mean Astolfo and Jeanne, two young, very pretty girl and girl-looking guy, go around investigating murder scenes and people don’t bat an eye?
CHIRON IN SUIT???!!! OMG DADDY
Oh-OH SHIT I forgot that Caules has the necromancy power that’s pivotal for the plot
Fiore” “Man this paperwork is so boring I wish something else can happen.” Jack: “Hehe”
OH OKAY CAULES U OK THAT LOOKS PAINFUL AS FUCK
Chiron of course his pain is immense he is screaming like a madman
Jeanne and Astolfo be like “Ew that’s some Exorcist shit 10/10 won’t watch it again”
He looks so chubby in this scene (2)
Is that the magus standard reaction to a ringing cellphone?
Fiore is so focused on her home works she doesn’t realise everybody’s been gassed to death outside her home.
Wait wait is that Jack with her cloak?!?!
Chiron to the rescue!!
Honestly Fiore handling phone is so cute
Sieg be like “I’m the protagonist here I won’t just sit down in a bedroom I will save everybody”
And Gordes has graduated into homunculi weirdly protective uncle
Um if you say the code out loud of course the murderer behind you would hear it
YES IT’S JACK WITH HER CLOAK
SHE LOOKS SO BADASS IN IT 100% SCARIER 100% CUTER
I am so taken aback at this scene I just got silent
I agree with Fiore. Jack is enjoying this. A lot.
She’s like that really cute kid and also really michievous you can’t help but adressing her “Cute little shit”
“You think it was a broomstick? Too bad it is my mechanical magical steel tentacles!” -Fiore
Jack’s golden shining eyes are so creepy
Sieg: “I AM THE PROTAGONIST MY JOB IS SAVING EVERYONE HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE TO SAY ITTTT??!!!!”
Jack: “Who are you?” Sieg: *silent* Jack: “That’s bad manners, answer if someone asks you”
Jack’s reaction is exactly like me when I literally just finish my task and new one comes in.
SIEG WAIT DON’T YOU HEAR WHAT CHIRON TOLD YOU MINUTES AGO?!
Wow Jack’s voice is full of resentment I love it
Um you guys made it in time, yes, but you two braided servants don’t actually do anything??
Chiron: “Thanks. Good thing I keep you in the castle, right?” Sieg: “YEAH BUT-“
“I don’t remember her face anymore but I’m sure she comes from hell” -Fiore
Fiore: “Let’s kill Jack.” Sieg: “Yeah let’s kill her.” Jeanne: “Yeah, in a non-suicidal way, right?” Sieg: “Um…”
You know, this episode wins because I haven’t read its second half in the novel but I guess it works Jack is just scary as fuck and I love it.
Chubby faces but i won’t complain it’s not in inappropriate scenes anw
Also finally I know how Caules’s necromancy works and it’s fucked up.
NEXT: Get the priest we have a loose satan here.

Me watching Fate/Apocrypha ep 13
With that piano intro, it feels like there is a narration saying “Once upon a time, in an ancient babylonian flying fortress”
If there is any book with that intro I’d read the shit out of it
Sieg be like “I’ve seen too many shit I should apply to become the new wonder of the world”
Sieg: “I’m sorry I was reckless” Astolfo: “bOI THAT WAS NOT RECKLESS THAT WAS STUPID AS FUCK AND THAT’S ME SAYING” Sieg: “But I have a wish I wanna save my friends in the middle of war” Astolfo: “oKAY COOL ME PROUD”
Shit the loony witch shows up
I made an entire post consisting of me contemplating the new op and ed bc it’s long and full of thought HAHA jk it’s shit
Hi kids welcome to the church in the fortress 2 weeks ago the cinnamon and the sinnamon met each other
Shirou: “We’re catholics, we should understand each other.” Jeanne: “Dude, just because I have the same religion as you, as 1.1 billion other people do btw, doesn’t mean I agree to everything you do, especially if it involves stealing most magical thing ever and smiling sinisterly.”
Wow Shirou raises his voice that’s 5* rarity
Shirou: “I didn’t have my master die in my arms, wait 60 years, and manage this dangerous team of nukes all by myself for being defied by a 16 yo rapunzel hourglass saberface”
Jeanne: “Goddamnit you’re a HEROic spirit be a HERO for once!” Shirou: “Nah, I’m outta the club I can do whatever I want.”
Semiramis: “Are you saying my master breaks the rule?” Jeanne: “Are you teasing me with that question or are you just deaf and stupid?”
Semiramis be like “What? You think me, a beautiful poisoner queen who murdered my husband slyly and got into his throne, as the one capable of corrupting an innocent-looking yu-gi-oh-haired young man like my master? I’m offended.”
Guys you’re late to Vlad’s funeral
Shirou: “It’s all peaceful, no fighting whatsoever with your masters.” The AKA team: “BULLSHIT.” Shirou: “But hey it was really no fighting!”
Get you a wife like Semiramis- No wait, don’t make her your wife just make her fall hard for you she wishes she was your wife
Karna’s level-headedness is truly something, I must say
Shirou: “Thank you very much” Karna: “Not now, bitch”
I still find it funny that Karna seems like the first one in AKA team to be fine with Shirou as his master but in the end he’s the only one who never accepts Shirou. My boy.
Shirou: “All of you, become my bitches now.”
Celenike have you learned nothing from Gordes’s experience?!
Wow scratching head until it bleeds is actually one of things I consider creepy and disturbing
But why does it sound like she’s breaking her skull instead of scratching and if she indeeds breaks her skull why is she alive?
You don’t wanna dirty your hands killing Sieg? Bitch you hold human entrails with the same hands might as well cut your hands right now
Astolfo: “There’s no point in me killing Sieg!” Celenike: “There is! I’m horny now!”
Too late, her brain moves to between her legs now.
Sieg’s fate is to be stomped by masters of Yggdmillenia
Grossest slasher movie idea: Celenike is jealous towards Sieg because Astolfo emotes so much around him instead of when she tortures Astolfo so she decides to stomp Sieg and force Astolfo to kill him while she gets hot watching it.
Wow that’s a very ugly face of dying. I’d make the same face as Sieg too.
I CAN HEAR THE CHEER OF PEOPLE FOR MORDRED AT THIS VERY MOMENT
It’s like Kairi and Mordred just drive around and happen to see the nasty quarrel and be like “well that’s one cockroach to kill” so they stop to behead Celenike and then goes off again.
I think servant disappearing into light is engineered to be as slow as it can to give them time to speak dramatic last words huh?
Astolfo: “I don’t wanna drag you into this war.” Sieg: “I already dove head-first to save my friends so technically I’m already in this war too”
HAHA WORLD RECORD OF SERVANT TRYING TO KILL THE MASTER Sieg you’re beginning to become a funny man
I don’t know if Achilles clicks his tongue because Chiron rejects Shirou’s offer to join red faction or Semiramis belittles Chiron but either way he really cares for his teacher :’))
Semiramis: “How about you remember you’re in my home?” Chiron: “How about you remember I can bomb your home?”
Remember 2 weeks ago when I said there are only two sane men on board? That’s excluding the attacked-by-headache red servants, but now you get why I say that.
Shirou: “Jeanne I don’t really wanna kill you actually” Jeanne: “Asshat your face looks like you really wanna kill me slowly”
Wow I don’t expect them to actually detail Karna’s gesture
Mordred, making the most grandiose entrance ever.
I was thinking, why would Mordred charge into an enemy fortress without her armor, like maybe she would but her master would not. So I just conclude maybe A-1 can’t afford to animate her armors ._.
Semiramis: “You wanna betray us?” Mordred: “You tried to betray us first!” Semiramis: “I will behead you, traitor!” Mordred: “First, it’s you  it’s you who is the traitor here. Second I beheaded someone on the way and I’m not shy to do it again!!”
Mordred vs Semiramis is kinda like a battle between parent and child with lots of foul languages
Seriously Mordred is the hero of this episode and her trashtalking doesn’t disappoint at all
Like I said, I’m surprised Karna’s gesture is detailed because it’s clear he realizes first hand than Mordred is coming and actually wants her to clear the mess and help Jeanne and Chiron escape and he doesn’t do anything to stop them and he smiles in satisfaction when it’s all done. Like, my boy. My dear boy.
Semiramis: “You think you can do something? Everything you can do, I can do it too!” Avicebron: “Well I do battles too, unlike your shit caster” Shirou: “He’s got a point, hon.”
A saberface stood in the middle of dead people on a war. Great, wanna bet Fate/Extra will have umu do the same thing too?
The wish of salvation is never wrong. The method you try to achieve it, however, often falls into the nope scale.
Wow I also didn’t expect they would include the crushed homunculus in this scene too.
When even Fiore tells you to shut up then you need to evaluate your life
I wanna laugh because Sieg is nonchalantly running into the room like he’s late for class but can’t give a shit to the professor in front of him
Ah I see, A-1 make a huge change in this scene.
Gordes: “Y-YOU!” Sieg: “Surprises bitch I bet you thought you had seen the last of me”
People die when they are killed is so last year, Gordes.
Sieg: “Guess who just became a new master?” Black faction: “No way!” Sieg: “That’s right! It’s me!”
Caules close up is always welcome, babe.
Astolfo is also nonchalantly late into the class and only bothered about how to pose.
Leader!Homunculus: “You keep surprising us” Sieg: “I died twice already and the surprise will just keep on coming, mate.”
Nice speech Sieg!! Cementing the fact that he is the anti-thesis of Shirou and that he is the main protagonist, in case anybody forgets.
Also it kickstarts Fiore’s existential crisis but hey that’s for another episodes okay.
Caules did you just tell Gordes to count to ten??? You. You are fucking perfect my darling.
Chiron: “Master, Caster betrays us. And he’s going to get Roche.” Fiore: “Wait that’s too many news for 2 minutes.”
I guess no matter how much of a genius you are, if you’re young and a shut-in you will always remain naive.
Originally in the novel, if I am correct, this scene is where Gordes shitting around and treats Sieg as Siegfried. Astolfo full-on roasts Gordes and pours salt on his wounds, and also makes jabs about the stolen grail. Fiore is suspicious that Astolfo might be the one killing Celenike, which is actually normal thing to do, but he might or might not even notice that. Caules honestly agrees that the homunculi’s lifespan won’t allow them to do everything they want, which is cold, but in line with the fact that he’s, at his core, blunt. I guess A-1 decides to change it so that Sieg has time to deliver the speech?
Well it’s a shame Astolfo roasting is skipped tho. But I think I like the speech. If that’s how they try to make Sieg likable (I heard he’s not very likable back before this adaptation?), I think it works with me.
NEXT: Servanger 2.0

Me watching Fate/Apocrypha ep 9
Darnic this is the 9th episode we don’t need any grail exposition anymore
Use Nazi to rob a mythical object. Sounds rad.
Does Nazi even believe in occult things in the first place?
I mean, is there even a nazi magus? They must be a colossal asshole.
Wow Zouken bleeding and writhing amongst penis worms. A very nice and precious scene.
Woow who is that mysterious person staring between fire who nonchalantly stands behind the church statue- Ha as if the foreshadowing isn’t enough already.
Darnic’s motto: Backstab everybody until nobody’s left to backstab but me
Holy grail? More like “Einzbern ideal naked bodies”
Darnic gets hammy.
BERSERKER!! SMASH!!! *swings mace down*
Shirou: “Will you come to my side?” Fran: Nah my otaku master is way better than someone with Yu-Gi-Oh-inspired hairstyle
Shakespeare: *enters dramatically* Ohoho Don’t fight me I can’t fight lol *exits dramatically*
Shirou, no means fucking no.
Shakespeare should be a narrator for every battle scenes in fate universe I’d watch that
Shirou stop dramatically unsheathing your katana this ain’t Bleach
Wow wow leaping like a squirrel
LOOK AT THAT SMUG SMILE no wonder Semiramis falls hard for him
Such lightning much wow
Jeanne no the priest ain’t on the fortress you’re going the wrong way!
Seriously if I were to ever go into battle, all I’m gonna do is fighting while whining like Astolfo
Bring a trumpet to a magic battle THAT SOUNDS SO LOUD AND ANNOYING IT OBLITERATES ENEMIES
He looks so proud of himself he’s so cute
The continuation of Bitchface Karna vs Uncle Drac
Karna apologizes for thinking Spartacus betrayed red faction. Karna understands Spartacus just goes back into his original rebel self. Karna is a fucking angel.
Karna-Atalanta teamwork is my new favorite thing
Atalanta the smug nee-san
NO ATALANTA THAT’S ACTUALLY A BAD MOVE AGAINST SPARTACUS
Wow the animation of Phoebus Catastrophe is amazing
Atalanta: I love the smell of Trifas in the morning. Except it’s night.
Achilles: “Sensei” Chiron: “Rider of Red” Me: Ouch.
It just goes to show that Chiron is indeed very mature and Achilles for all his feats is still youthful SNIFF
Meanwhile, Sieg casually ‘robs’ his former house amidst the war. And inserts existential crisis to his friends.
Not that it could ever be called his house tho
And yeah can’t deny existential crisis is also a thing to do when living
I just love everybody just jumps into conclusion that Semiramis is Caster of Red while she herself is Assassin of Red and the real Caster of Red is an useless drama king
Semiramis: Oho I just know a little bit of magecraft-THAT TURNS OUT TO BE GOD-TIER
Well she must use some magic to hold her dress on her boobs.
Astolfo is so full of magical items in store he might as well be Fate/Apocrypha equivalent of Doraemon.
I have a lot of questions regarding the spike on Semiramis’s hands. Can it be undone? Is it sharp? How does it even work? If she wants to hold Shirou is it on the way? Real god tier magecraft indeed.
Falling in front of the moon, Astolfo-style
They have so many blankets inside the castle huh
Astolfo be like “I’M A DAMN RIDER THERE IS NO WAY I’M GONNA BE HIT BY A DAMN CAR”
Somebody draw Mordred driving a tank into battlefield it’s hilarious
So Kairi’s role is pretty much drop Mordred to the battlefield, much like how a dad would drop his kid to the school. A+ parenting.
Astolfo knowing full well he is fucked but still summoning his lance anyway is such a courageous thing
Semiramis: Oh so this saint ain’t running Naruto style 24/7
OK somebody in A-1 MUST have a fetish for tying up Jeanne in chains SHOW YOURSEEELFFFF
I believe this is just an excuse to focus on her boobs eehhhhh???? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Caules you should meet the other Kotomine boy, he is a fucking superhuman.
Ah, the fun music!! Imma dance
First Folio should be called Dick Move
I don’t know anything about the actual Frankenstein literature, and not much about typemoon version of Victor Frankenstein, but to beat her just because she’s emotionless is a shit thing to do
Well to be fair she turns out having lots of emotions
I like their approach to show Fran’s thought with written words. Fitting for a Berserker with high intelligent.
Did I say dick move? Yeah dick fucking move.
FRAN OH MY GOD :’’’’((((((( I wanna hug her :((((
Look at mom Caules, immediately uses one command seal just to calm her down
He doesn’t blame her. He doesn’t raise his voice. He doesn’t regret using such a precious command seal. He even praises her. THIS IS HOW A MASTER SHOULD BE!!
Wow Mordred using Clarent while still in her civilian outfit. So cool.
MORDRED YOU ARE THE LAST PERSON WHO SHOULD SAY THAT you led a war that ended up destroying a whole kingdom because you believed that you were qualified as king, that your father sucked and on top of that you just wanted so badly to be recognized by your father. IF SIEGFRIED IS AN IDIOT THEN SO ARE YOU.
HOLY CRAP ASTOLFO GETS MAD
ASTOLFO I LOVE YOU THANK YOU FOR DEFENDING SIEGFRIED AND CALLING MORDRED DELIQUENT
Semiramis watching Jeanne: “Seriously why my master pays too much attention on this girl”
DISAPPEAR, HOLY MAIDEN OR WHATEVER is my new favorite trash talk.
Wow did she just full on nuke Jeanne hell hath no fury indeed
Semiramis: “How’s that, bitch?” Jeanne: “Ha, nice try, bitch.” Semiramis: “This bitch..!”
So the girlfriend tries to nuke Jeanne with ancient flying fortress and now the boyfriend tries to nuke Jeanne with servant bomb. Truly a match in heaven.
Darnic gets hammy, again.
Sieg: “YO BOI LET ME SHOW YOU I’M THE REAL PROTAGONIST HERE!!!“
I think they try hard to make awesome action scenes in this episode. Choreography is great. But in exchange, faces go ‘nyooomm’ a lot
So Jeanne suddenly stops doing naruto run and the main battle music isn’t played in this episode did someone from A-1 read my snarky comments last week???
NEXT: maybe some drama bomb will be dropped…

I’m so excited for the new op/ed I just straight up watch them before the sub comes up
OP
So Jeanne close up- wait isn’t this too similar with Fate/Grand Order op?
It’s like you only have one template for your opening A-1 c’mon
Okay main pair back to back, nothing out of ordinary
Mordred at Caliburn, mentally speaking to his blood dad: “Dad, I have a better dad now his name is Kairi he is huge unlike you”
HAHA Atalanta Chiron and Karna look like they are judging Achilles’s hobby of skydiving maniacally
Shakespeare so dramatic he might as well be a) presenting the stage for us or b) actually singing the opening
Wow the song is good
Shirou: *walks with shroud flowing* Semiramis, the ever supporting wifeservant: “Hell yeah”
But seriously that shroud is amazing
Shirou: “Yo this is my squad we hang out at ancient flying fortress everyday get rekt bitches”
Is Mordred vs Jack gonna ever end?
Why do I get this unsettling feeling that Jack’s booty is the focus for 2s I feel so sinful and I’m not happy
Reika be like “Look I’m relevant I love blood”
Commander Fiore and her lieutenant Caules, away to sigh at sky
Fiore: “Grandpa, you leave so many horrible reputation after you die. Who do you think will have to tidy up all that? ME. I’m so gonna kick your ass in afterlife.”
Astolfo jumps into the camera like he is aware he barely appears in the first opening
Astolfo vs Achilles for best rider
Siegfried is still relevant he appears in the op for 0.2s
Jeanne praying this adaptation won’t meet failure until the end
HOLY GRAIL EVOLUTION !!! -  HOLYGRAILMON
I mean dude, that sphere’s got 8 wings it’s angel-type digimon
Honestly the fighting scene in this opening is rather better imo
But why do I get the feeling I ever watch this kind of opening-
OKay that is sweet Jeanne and Sieg holding hands and their weapons crossed-WAIT ISN’T THIS SWORD ART ONLINE OP???
I like this opening better now that it’s not overcrowded. Only 1 con: No close up Caules anymore
ED
Animator Lead: “We need new ideas for ed. Naked Jeanne is already used last cour.” Animator1: “Emphasizes her sideboobs.” Animator1: “Great I’ll give you a raise.“
Oh the theme is raining.
Mordred: “See dad-in-the-sky, he’s a greater dad than you ever been he treats me orange juice and a meal”
*Atalanta and Achilles appears* Me: *raptor noise* MY FUCKING OTP IN THE FUCKING RAIN I CAN”T BREATHEEEEEE
I mean Achilles looks so blissful hOW
Also they are so in-character despite being paired
Do you even know how many hours I’ve spent looking for a fanart of these two???
100% sure Astolfo uses an umbrella simply because he wants to experience using an invention called umbrella
Chiron in the back like “Hm idiots don’t get cold so it’s fine to let him play in the rain”
I gotta admit, not counting the fact that they are insane with capital I, Jack and Reika are very heartwarming to each other.
Shakespeare sits in his dark room full of unread books and pondering about tragic stories that sounds like a tumblr user don’t you think?
S E X Y S O A K E D S E M I R A M I S I S L I F E
Karna: “This poodle reflects my figure beautifully. I’m but a normal being. Therefore this poodle is the one that is very beautiful.”
Shirou might be the child of miracle but even those miracle hands could not stop the rain without an umbrella
Sieg looks like he hasn’t seen a civilization with apparent life for 100 years
Sigh I thought he would either look back or look left/right and it’d be a homage for FSN/UBW (the former) or the first ED (the later)
I also thought Jeanne would smile huh
Wow the ending shot is everybody’s weapons sticking in the ground and Balmung as the focus nice to know THE GAR sword is still relevant
I still prefer the first ending song. But this one is also good, and the animation is very welcome, instead of, you know, naked Jeanne in space.

Now that Fate/Apocrypha 2nd Cour begins next week
I wanna talk to myself about the manga version. 
First of all, it’s fUCKING GREAT
You read it? You read it right?
What do you mean you haven’t read it go read it
Okay but real talk, at first I was pretty excited when the manga was announced then I found out the mangaka is Akira Ishida
Now I never know much about mangaka worlds and such so I only know Akira Ishida as the dude who draws the disastrous stage 3 designs of both Lancer Artorias
That moment I was solid frozen
But then I took a longer stare at my screen, 10 cm apart, and took a step away from booby Artorias, then I realized his designs and drawings are actually great
In fact personally I think it aligns well with Konoe-sense’s unique and expressive style. I mean, if somehow Kubo Tite draws Jeanne in Bleach style, wouldn’t that be out of place?
And it shows. I can feel the sheer bloodlust and authoritarian nature of Vlad III when facing against Spartacus from a single page
I mentioned that the anime was pretty clean when staking Spartacus. The manga wasn’t.
Haha like let’s be real the only reason I don’t talk about salt towards A-1 is because I already lowered my expectation to negative I just want to enjoy the show and make apocomments weekly
So far the manga is way more faithful to the novel than the anime is
Not in the caliber of Fate/Zero anime to the novel but you get what I mean
I mean there is Astolfo as a tree in the manga like that’s the quality content I signed up for
Okay half kidding but the manga includes the Vlad vs Jeanne debate, Jeanne visiting Astolfo (and Spartacus next door), and Jeanne exchanging words with the female homunculus leader
And still keeping in mind that Jeanne always thinks Astolfo is a girl and strips in front of him and he being well, Astolfo, keeps looking instead of going blush harem protagonist style
Forget Jeanne/Sieg or Astolfo/Sieg give me Jeanne/Astolfo
But that aside, glad the manga decides to have Jeanne strip her top to show the Ruler command spells (no, not for sexiness factors, not at all) because I remember the novel describes the command spells are on her hands under the gauntlet and the materials doesn’t even draw any tattoos on her hands so I’m confused
So satisfied that Vlad severely questions Jeanne’s wish considering her past and she serenely says she has none at all. That’s my girl
And that’s the point where her character backstory is fleshed out imo. And it’s truly beautiful.
Tho this exchange is left out and it’s a sin --> Vlad: “It seems that, even though we believe in the same God, we are incompatible.” Jeanne:“There are those who burned me at the stake even though they believed in the same God as me. So it’s only natural.” Girl you so savage
So in short, the manga is fucking great
