Fate stay night: Difference between revisions

Then there is Saber, the Servant Spirit who gets bonded to him. Her true name is unknown, but she has the mannerisms of a knight and the appearance of a young woman. Add to this an [[Tsundere|aloof girl]] named Tohsaka Rin, a rival Master and schoolmate who finds him [[Not Worth Killing|too pathetic to kill off immediately]]. Rin is a professional mage who knows the Grail War rules, but her conscience results in her helping out, despite her protests to the contrary. There is also her mysterious Servant, Archer, [[Easy Amnesia|who claims to suffer amnesia in the beginning due to his botched summoning]]. In addition, Shirou has to protect his "family" -- his self-appointed "older sister" teacher Taiga Fujimura, and his [[Sempai-Kohai|kohai]] Matou Sakura, who has an obvious (''[[Oblivious to Love|to everyone else]]'') crush on him.

 

 

 

 

 

* Furthermore, there are three more [[Video Game|video games]]:

** ''Fate/tiger colosseum'' (and its expansion ''Fate/tiger colosseum UPPER'') is a PSP-exclusive 3D [[Fighting Game]] and [[Parody|a lighthearted parody]] of the series (with some [[The Cameo|appearances]] by ''[[Tsukihime]]'' characters).

** ''[[Fate Extra|Fate/EXTRA]]'' is an [[RPG]] for the PSP who takes place [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future|in the near future]] [[Cyberspace|inside a large, virtual environment]] known as the SE.RA.PH.

*** The [[Multiple Endings|Normal End]] is a [[Downer Ending]].

* [[Blatant Lies]] - ''"All characters appearing in this game are over 18 years of age."'' [[Double Subverted]] -- the fact that a certain character is actually over 18 is a plot point, but this also means that the other main characters are underage, considering the character in question.

** It's even kind of jarring in the UBW movie -- they preserve the emotional context surrounding the Rin/Shirou scene while replacing the [[Deus Sex Machina]] with a comparatively tame 'transfer ritual', making Rin's reactions (entirely in-character with respect to the original scene) seem bizarre and pointlessly angry.

* [[Blood From the Mouth]] - Shirou [[Averted Trope|averts this trope]] after {{spoiler|flushing out Ilya's binding spell}}, noting as he does that such an injury is light.

'''Shirou:''' "I didn't say anything about it being pretty -- huh? What did you say, Tohsaka?" }}

* [[Did Not Get the Girl]] - {{spoiler|In the ''Fate'' route. [[Multiple Endings|The only ending in which Saber stays]] is the ''Unlimited Blade Works'' "[[Double Entendre|good]]" ending. That would be [[Bi the Way|Rin's harem, by the way]], as she likes to make perfectly clear.}}

* [[Doorstopper]] - The [[Visual Novel]] is about a million words long in English.

* [[Downer Ending]]

'''Kotomine:''' {{spoiler|But I'm still evil somehow, right?}}|'''END.'''}}

* [[The Electric Slide]] - Saber does this one during her first fight with Berserker.

* [[Eleventh-Hour Superpower]]

** ''Fate'' and [[Anime]]: {{spoiler|Caliburn, Avalon}}
