Line 523:
* [[Spontaneous Weapon Creation]]: Archer can create weapons out of thin air. It's the same for {{spoiler|his past-self Shirou, who can "trace" various historical and mythological swords, creating inferior copies of them to use in battle}}.
* [[Star-Crossed Lovers]] - {{spoiler|Shirou and Saber in the ''Fate'' route}}.
* [[Start of Darkness]]: The backstory suggests that the Holy Grail underwent this around [[World War
* [[Statistically Speaking]] - [[Averted]]: The stats of the Servants seem to have little, if any, bearing on their actual abilities. Archer is able to hold off Lancer despite being statistically inferior to him in practically every way, and {{spoiler|True Assassin and Gilgamesh}} get defeated by humans they should, by all accounts, outperform several times over. Although, this is due to the circumstances rather than them genuinely being weaker. Indeed, the only stats that ever seem to come into play are Saber's B-rank Luck and Magical Energy, which allow her to withstand Lancer's ''Gae Bolg'' attack, Archer's {{spoiler|Independent Action Rank B}} and Rider's {{spoiler|Eyes of Petrification}}. Of course, when you get down to brass tacks, the stats honestly ARE meaningless- the game is a [[Visual Novel]], not an RPG and the stats are only there to add flavour.
* [[Stay in the Kitchen]]
Line 556:
** In the ''Heaven's Feel'' route, "Light and Darkness" (''Hikari to Yami'') plays during the last battle, between {{spoiler|Shirou and Kotomine}}. Or rather, ''half'' of the song plays at first, giving a tense techno beat while {{spoiler|Shirou's getting his ass kicked. It's only when [[My Name Is Inigo Montoya|he reflects on]] [[The Power of Love|Sakura]] [[My Name Is Inigo Montoya|and pulls off a frenzied counterattack]] that the second half of the song plays}}.
* [[There Can Be Only One]] - The very concept of the Grail War. {{spoiler|At least, that is what they want you to think, even if the actual goal of the Grail War is still something really different.}}
* [[Those Wacky Nazis]]: They pop up in the backstory as the Nazis sent in their [[Ghostapo|own "representatives"]] to the Holy Grail War at one point. Justified in that said war took place around the same time as [[World War
* [[Talking Is a Free Action]] - In two forms:
** [[Talking Is a Free Action]]: mostly [[Averted]], but spell-casting is pretty much done at the speed of plot. The notable exception is Caster who has an unfair [[Justified]] advantage, but sometimes the characters can even cast complex spells in less time than it takes for an already incoming blow to land.
