Always loving seeing these! These videos are the only place I like to get direct about stuff, so here we go! 4:30 - Lancer doesn't know he and Gilgamesh have the same master. He would assume Gilgamesh's master is Shinji at this point if he saw him. 6:50 - Semantics here, but "best at killing humans" and "greatest natural enemy of regular humans" are two different categories. 8:05 - I feel like their relationship in CP is already what you're looking for lol 12:50 - Saber. 16:24 - in the Fate route Lancer holds off Gilgamesh for a full day before Gilgamesh finally overtakes him. His Protection from Arrows was instrumental in doing so. If you've only seen the Dean adaptation they did that feat really dirty. 17:04 - Please see episode 1. 17:28 - Other way around. Archer's telling Lancer what he's trying to do to Caster. EDIT: You got there! 18:14 - There's actually another layer to this. In Lancer's period of history potatos weren't actually common (or really present) in Ireland. Archer doesn't directly know that. It's a hilarious insult because Irish, but Lancer doesn't respond to it because that particular quip doesn't mean anything to him. 20:30 - Apart from being such a great song, Stranger I Remain says a ton about Archer. We include our Insert Songs only if they both feel right and say something about the characters. 24:10 - Copyright bots do be that way. 24:50 - He's having his first genuine emotion in the show, effectively. 26:50 - In terms of winning the war he's correct. He's assuming that if Kirei is dead then Gilgamesh's overall plan will have changed (and Gilgamesh isn't showing an interest in Saber in this path). 27:50 - Our Archer is from the past Nasu describes him as being from - one similar to the Fate route, where he understood Saber but failed to save her from herself, so she went on chasing her wish. 28:47 - In a previous episode Shirou delcared he was the Robin to Archer's Batman. 33:03 - Seethe. Yes. Yes good. Despair. 35:00 - You might be unaware of the minor detour the anime takes before the battle you're thinking of.

More so if you realize this was likely him finally clicking in that Archer isn't just future him, but _alternate_ future him.

27:26 I believe this is the official stance on what timeline Archer comes from: Q: What was the Fifth Grail War that Heroic Spirit Emiya experienced in his lifetime like? Was the Archer summoned there also Emiya? Nasu Kinoko: It was a world where the conditions at the beginning of the war were mostly the same, but something was missing. Shirou summoned Saber and fought until the end, didn't save Saber's heart but understood her, and they destroyed the grail together and parted... that's the image I have. Takeuchi Takashi: Ahh, so something like a Fate route Good End we didn't make in the game?! Nasu: Yeah, probably. After that, it is believed he cooperates with Rin who survived, and heads to London. Q: In the Fifth Holy Grail War that Archer was retracing, were the inner dealings of the Matou clan or Sakura’s circumstances known? If he had known, how did Sakura look through Archer’s eyes in this particular Holy Grail War? Nasu: That Archer only has “memories of Saber” when it concerns the Holy Grail War. When he was summoned, seeing his summoned before him, he started to acknowledge things around Rin as “his own things.” The inner dealings of the Matou clan is something he didn’t know before turning into a Servant, and Sakura’s current circumstances were something he deduced after being summoned for the Holy Grail War. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that he would assist Sakura. Archer is Archer. It’s not the guy. Takeuchi: He remembers just Saber… you’re talking about the opening scene in the original game. Nasu: It’s not that he clearly remembers details. His memories are vague, and at the point where he was assigned as a guardian, his memories are all blended together chaotically regardless of past or future. So, he no longer has the sensation of “what he feels is beautiful” anymore. Just think the “first contact with Saber” was something engraved into his soul as an Art Graph. Also, how that young man met Saber and how he was involved is something completely different from that in stay night.

3:52 yes Cu did accidentally killed his son, because the boy’s mother put a curse on him to never say his name if ask. She was mad that Cu didn’t marry her. Cu had his heart set on marring a different women. 12:55 he means saber , he from the Fate timeline. 16:42 Cu fight Gill for a full day.

Fun fact: The Causality Reversal is NOT the power of the Gae Bolg spear. It's ONLY a spear technique NP. This is why Scathach cannot use that ability. It's actually just a spear technique at the level of True Magic just like how Kojiro's Tsubame Gaeshi is a sword technique at the level of True Magic. The Spear actually only has two powers: 1- Anti-Healing curse; 2- Curse of Instant Death if the heart is pierced. This curse is powerful enough to defeat Arcueid if she was hit in the heart with it even though she lacks the concept of Death. The spear throw is also just a spear technique, with most of its power coming from Lancer rather than from the spear. And the throw was powerful enough to sheer through Rho Aias.

While Gae Bolg itself lacks the reversal of causality, it does actually actually seek the heart when thrown, that's how it's anti-army deployment works. It's scans the amount of enemies, splits into multiple copies for the number of targets verified, then seeks their heart for maximum effect. That's the reason Archer chose to block with Rho Aias instead of countering, he canceled out "seek the heart" with "block all thrown weapons"(think of the unstoppable force vs immovable object paradox). The anti-healing curse is the actually same as the instant death curse. When someone is pierced by the spear, it sends a curse in the form of thorns throughout the target, which prevents healing of the wound. If the targets heart is pierced, the curse can spread throughout the entire body, guaranteeing death.

Compared to that, here she switches instantly (at least in Abridged, original UBW took more time too). Also Archer is more or less the same person in every VN route - ever-maidenless protag of almost-Fate route, where Saber didn't reciprocate

16:23 To answer your question, Archer is referencing Lancer's fight with Gilgamesh in the Fate route, specifically in the VN where it says it lasted 24 hours. The Deen adaptation left that out and made the fight last mere moments instead.

I would feel bad if this is Saber route, but this is UBW/Rin's. No romantic feeling to be had with him contractually bonded to Saber Imo.

27:49 In every Route, Archer comes from the same timeline, he simply approaches the situation differently (out of commision for the most part in Fate, Shirou Hate and Self- Loathing at 500% in UBW and Unkown territory in HF due to the shadow and Shirou's change of heart). The Route from were Archer comes from is most similar to Fate Route, *almost* identical, and even though he and Saber "won the war" by defeating Kirei and Gilgamesh, he couldn't reach her heart, she would keep on pursuing her desire to obtain the Grail and seeing herself as failure. Also, there are lots of moments were (while not saying it flat out) it is implied that Archer holds affection and respect for Saber and his knwoledge of the war matches for the most part the events of Fate Route + the fact that UBW must come after Fate in the reading/watch order is in made for us to realize that Archer is a Shirou that fought alongside Saber: he came to admire and love her, but wasn't able to understand himself and her in a way that would end up in their mutual salvation through their bond. PS: Loved the video man, your reactions are always a joy to see. Keep it up!

The EMIYA that became Archer is from the fate route, but in his timeline he failed to awaken Saber's humanity. It's an unreleased timeline.

22:45 no. Archer’s whole plan was to Skrew over caster. Kirei was nowhere in the plan. Even if he was, Kirei barley supplies Cu with anything. all the shit he does is mostly through his own reserves. On top of that, Kirei’s magic circuits are nearly comparable to shirou’s cause not only did he get them through mutation, but he didn’t use them for most of his life. So to compensate his lack of prana output, he uses command seals to super charge his magecraft or blades when necessary.

I see all the Airier Moments have been addressed by others so I'll just add that Cu is a 5* in a 3* package and this is a hill I (and MANY others) are going to die on. If I had an option to take a lancer to the Grail Front, you bet it was going to be him. Between Herc and Cu there really wasn't much left of the opposition afterwards.

Haven't finished the video yet so I'm not sure if you end up remembering or not, but if I'm not mistaken, the "no wonder you lasted a full day against him" is a reference to the Fate route. IIRC at one point Lancer turns on Kirei and Gilgamesh to give Saber and Shirou a chance to escape from a confrontation, while Kirei lets it go on without using his command seals because...well...who's going to tell Gilgamesh he can't have his fun? Lancer proceeds to go 1v1 against Gilgamesh for a full 24 hours before eventually being overwhelmed. A good example of how the Hound of Ulster, when allowed to go all out and not being nerfed by the plot, is a pretty freaking impressive Servant.

3:19 your thinking of The Day the Earth Stood Still. and that is Klaatu barada nikto. which is refrenced in many things from army of darkness to star wars. what lancer used was the universal Greeting from the 80's transformers movie.

I was waiting for this…now I can finally rest and relax. Also I felt kinda bad for Shirou after Saber became Rin’s servant. Also Cu being the bro as per usual.

The line "we both drew from the earth a responsiblity we have no way of understanding" is amazing. Because artoria (saber) literally drew excalibur from the earth and shirou(counter force archer)drew a contract with Alaya the will of the earth which they both have regretted doing so.

3:20 Do you mean The Day the World stood still ? (2008 American science fiction film serving as a loose adaptation of the 1951 film of the same name (which itself was based on the 1940 short story "Farewell to the Master").)

@Airier Archer in this is supposed to be Archer from the Fate Route which is why whenever they have "flashbacks" it shows the Dean Fate/Stay Night Clips which covers the Fate route. Him "preferring blondes" is a reference to the fact that Shirou ends up with Saber in the Fate Route.

The Corinne Sudberg cover of Brave Shine is what you are looking for.

If i understand it correctly , Archer is from the Fate route , but failed at the emotional finale with Saber . Meaning while we get the emotional closure , he never gets that far , even if he managed to finish it without dying .

The Day the Earth Stood Still, is the name of the classic movie. The line is "Klaatu berata nikto"

They used Metal Gear Rising music before. They did Red Sun when Shiro first conjured the two swords a few episodes back.

The thing about Lancer lasting a whole day against "him" is a reference to Lancer in the FATE route where he betrayed Kirei, and stopped Gilgamesh from going after Shirou, Saber and Rin for 12 hours of nonstop combat. We don't know how he lost in the end, but it's assumed to either be from having no mana left or from EA. HOWEVER, Gil would've likely gotten pissed off long before the 12 hours mark and would've actually started using the NPs of his weapons soon enough. Gil likely tried to use Enkidu as well, since Cu is a demigod, but it wouldn't have worked either since they function as projectiles.

The funniest part about the Nightwing thing is that Batman straight up says he looks to Dick when trying to be a hero.

I was literally searching this!

Anyone having an issue where the video and the audio are de-synced? Edit: happens to me when caster dies (specifically after kuzucchini, because the audio is at archer talking about "kuzuki wanting to get his smooch on" but the visuals where at when caster was in the middle of dying (showing her heels) so...)

@@Airier thought so. Thanks.

I think the reference Cu brought up in the beginning is one about his uncle and adoptive father. Conchobar (Cu's uncle), was an ally of Fergus (Cu's adoptive dad) but he betrayed his trust by having his son killed trying to defend Naoise, the lover of Deirdre. (Conchobar's adoptive daughter)

Has anyone realized the sounds effects they put in every time Lancer makes a movement because his spandex is super tight? XD

Quite late, but I believe the old movie you're thinking of is "The Day The Earth Stood Still", which had a remake several years ago starring Keanu Reeves.

I can’t wait to see your reaction buddy. 20:21 I knew Archer sided with Caster to help Rin and maybe Saber, but for the life of me I couldn’t exactly how. Thanks to this I can now tell ya, LOL. Although I think in the original Archer really thought it would hold. 1:38 OH YEAH, hahaha I forget Rin & Shiro are teenagers and thus are prone to freaking out as such, LOL. 2:39 That IS the Universal Greeting, but from the animated Transformers movie from 86. 27:03 I thought Saber didn’t come into her humanity until after she got back to England and died.?.?.? maybe I’m misremembering it. 27:15 That was always my assumption as well.

@Airier The Universal Greeting is from the original Transformers movie from 1986.

As others said - the Archer who appears in UBW is the Shirou from the Fate/stay night timeline who romanced Saber - that's why he prefers blondes XD And the "lasted a whole day against him" line is also from Archer's timeline where Cu lasted a WHOLE DAY against Berserker Herc.

This is a bad timeline FATE Shirou who didn’t have Saber reciprocate his affections enough to trigger the Avalon ending like main Shirou did

Thanks for this reaction :) . Everything's already been elaborated on, so not much else to say now.

Hey, he's the BEST ✮✮✮ in the game. His damage is the HIGHEST for ✮✮✮ too, and is better than some ✮✮✮✮ servants, not to mention you can solo a lot of content with the man once you've properly upgraded him!

27:50 I think Nasu said that none of the routes' Shirous would become archer, but that the Fate route one would come the closest. So I guess they went with one that was similar with some differences that might make him more like Archer.

16:42 he was talking about how in the saber route. Cu fought Gilgamesh and lasted a whole day against him before dying.

The Archer servant EMIYA is Shirou from a timeline that runs somewhat similar to the Fate route, but where he wasn't able to basically save Artoria's humanity, then went on to continue to follow his ideals, only barely avoiding being like Kiritsugu. Upon his death due to a betrayal by someone he trusted, he made a pact with the world and became a Counter Guardian, but then became frustrated with that and managed to fix it so he could be summoned in the Fifth Holy Grail War. Literally from the moment EMIYA was recorded into the Throne of Heroes is where Fate/stay Night begins because, after that moment, Rin Tohsaka cannot summon any Servant except for Archer EMIYA due to him carrying the pendant Rin saved him with until the day he died, thus ensuring that the pendant would become a summoning catalyst. All of this a long con to try and kill Shirou Emiya to prevent himself from ever existing.

That was a really old transformers reference. Like an 80s movie old. There were some autobots that ran into some other bots that talked tv, and gave them the universal greeting. It was the one with the planet deception. Haven't seen that movie since I was 5-8 ish.

12:56 he was talking about the first series alternate timeline saber

Archer was talking about saber, because he's from fate route

To fair, Lancer has no idea that Gil is Kirei's servant, He doesnt find this out until the basement scene in the fate route and he never does in this route

@@Airier Well when you compare him to the other lancers like Diarmuid Ua Duibhne, Cu Chulainn, and, Vladd III he ended on a good note and Kana said he was satisfied.

When Archer said he prefers blondes, he meant Saber. Cause the entire abridged, he’s hinting that he is the Shirou in the Fate route that fell in love with Saber and had hot steamy mana transfer.

So with the Blonde comment Archer is referring to his route where he and Saber were a couple, the "last a full day" thing was in Archer's original route where Cu fought Gilgamesh.

Can’t wait to see the next one tomorrow

8:00 see most people don't realise how dangerous Kazu... Kuzuki, whatever his name is, is. If that guy knew how to magic, Kirei would've forgotten about Emiya.

Ngl I was slightly mad, but after the high I thought "Nah that was an excellent way to end this since the mic drops that happen after the Reality Marble that it'll make the video longer than it should be"

The line about Saber coming into her humanity isn’t so much negating the idea that archer is fate shirou it’s that a big part of fate was shirou trying to get saber to do things for herself and her own happiness. It wasn’t until the last couple of hours of the grail war where she let go of her wish of wishing someone better pulled the sword out of the stone (effectively erasing herself as she was in that moment from history) The only reason she managed to let go was because first and foremost she learned the grail was corrupted as such it effectively made her aspiration impossible But also because in fate kotomine offered to give Shirou and saber the grail (before they knew it was corrupted) Saber then realized that shirou had his own thing that from her perspective he should want to undo (the fire that killed his family and MANY others) but was floored when he rejected the idea of going back and wishing it away causing her to reevaluate her own wishes and desires The reason Archer is so FURIOUS at saber for coming into her humanity here is not only is it a COLOSSAL pain in the ass for him, but he is furious that it just happened here seemingly out of the blue, Archer could not get the women he loved no matter what his efforts to pursue her own humanity, to find her own happiness and have a goal that was something other then an elaborate suicide until there was literally the last hours they were together Now he sees this version of saber put aside her goal for shirou sake. It’s a pain in the ass but he is also jealous he is probably thinking “why couldn’t my saber have done this so easily”

Canonically, all the routes do not have a chronological order, and even if they do, Archer wouldn't be able to piece them together since from his point of view, he's experience an influx of memories from the him of the past, present and future, that's the reason why he is always confused and amnesiac at the start of the grail war, as he needs time sort his memories to a good enough extent to understand the situation. However, as for this abridged Archer, from the content of the dialogue, he might be the Shirou who didn't get enough affection points with Saber in the fate route, and Saber chose the Holy Grail over him during the church scene, and ended with a dead end with Saber cutting him down unintentionally due to her desires overwhelming her a brief moment. It's possible that Shirou managed to survive that with Avalon's regeneration, but, only waking up after everything is over, the exact events that led to that is up to your imagination.

You want to complain about Fate/Grand Order decisions, there are SO MANY. My favorite is Geronimo. They made him a Caster. He was an Apache warrior, so Assassin would fit best although he probably knew his way around a spear and bow so Lancer or Archer would work; he gave a speech swearing vengeance on the Mexican army, so Avenger would work; he's famous for riding his horse off a cliff and shouting his name to taunt the soldiers chasing him, so Rider would make perfect sense; the Mexicans also called him Bloody Devil after seeing him fight, so the argument could be made for Berserker. Saber and Caster are, like, the only two classes that absolutely DON'T work for him, and yet he's a Caster. He asks why in the game, like 'why am I a Caster? I wasn't a medicine man or shaman'. They're being dumb just for the sake of being dumb.

They’re going to have a hard time topping this one

"I prefer blondes" refers to saber, cause he's from the timeline in the VN where you choose saber, archer is exclusively the variation from fate, in ubw he realizes things are different so he takes it into his hands to try and stop shirou from becoming him, and in heavens feel shirou gives up his dream so he doesn't have a purpose in the war anymore

3:06 The day the earth stood still.

archer is a shirou who experienced similler events to fate route shirou the main difference being is that in archer world he couldnt save saber while shirou in the fate route he did

Archer was talking about how Cu fought Gilgamesh for about 12 hours

Lancer greening was from the 80 anime first Tranformers film (sorry if someone else informed you)

I mean, about Kirie, apparently it was his wish that wiped out everybody except Shirou.

No the “He’s the worst person alive” is a reference to how archer and Saber discuss him”

Also, when he says “I prefer blondes” he’s probably referring to Saber, as this Shiro might be from a failed Saber route

The reference to Archer I like blonds is his love for Artoria in the fate path and him lasting a day fighting was against Gilgamesh

Wish they would make an Archer's route one day.

Archer, lived through a timeline very similar to the Fate route, however he didn't reach an understanding with Saber in his version of events. Also, from what I can gather he retains memories of being the Archer of the Fate route, as first episode showed a flashback of a bloodied Archer fighting Berserker
