Kiritsugu Emiya... his legacy shaped the course of Fate/Stay Night. A tragic man who wanted to be a hero only to watch as his ideals failed him and took away everything he loved, leaving him a broken man who passed along his flawed ideals to the one person he saved from that hell
We know that his grail war was somewhat like the events of the FATE route, there were major differences of course. One of them was that he could not save sabers soul. Since he had nobody by his side. He was utterly alone, without the answer that UBW shirou had, or the love of saber in his memories. He did have Ilya for a bit though. This explains his fondness of her throughout the novel.
Possibly. Like I said we really don't know. It's fairly obvious they grew distant after the grail war though. If she even survived it that is. It's been implied that his pact with alaya caused his hanging but we're not sure why. Despite my anger at UFOTABLE for animating fate in the wrong order. They have created a situation where an archer route is a possibility after they finish heavens feels. Since its a alt fate route with possible bits of the missing Ilya route attached, it would provide a new route with information from the old ones while still being fresh.
Funny I always see FZ and UBW as criticism of perception of heroism and redefine what heroism is. FZ criticized heroism for their idealistic utopia of creating a perfect world because the reality a perfect world only exist when you make a lot of sacrifice which defeat the point of a perfect utopia. Only at the end Kiritsugu become a true hero by saving one person. Kiritsugu action inspired shirou to carry on his legacy and continue to become hero by saving other which whole point of UBW is that heroes does not create a perfect utopia but who focus on doing good and save other which inspired other to follow his path. In a sense it was a criticism toward characters like Batman, sasuke and other edgy type that tried to change the world and more praising people like Superman who simply save other because he can.
@FBI Actually if he was anything like the EXTRA Archer then he likely had a loved one. His regret happened after death, not while alive. Archer even says as much, that he did not regret a single thing in his lifetime. When Shirou sees the valley of swords in the VN he mentions that he didn't saw a broken man who was betrayed, but a man who accepted even death because he had kept saving others to the very end. The regrets come from the murders he had to commmit as a Counter Guardian.

In Nasuverse, its dark and cold. The reality that we know whether from the mundane or in the moonlit world. All around vestige of cruelty and beast all alike. For Gaia, the will of the planet, sought humanity destruction upon her pleading to the Ultimate One, Crimson Moon. But hope not lost when humanity collective will Alaya presents the heroes of old to defend us from the darkness and extinction. Still it won't go away. The ill fates destined to sought and wrought us into a hopeless and broken existence. Sometimes we all need a little push, a little hope, a glimmer of light that would bring us peace. One was born from that day upon curses, brimstone and fire. A boy so broken that he die that day but brought back upon a man that caused it. Never again the boy the same for he cannot be again the same he was. Like nothing just to fill the empty void. He relived the man's ideal to become the hero of justice. Even though it would bring destruction and regret.
@jeremy argha no, actually. shirou is a simple minded guy, he said it himself. he's not a schemer and only faces whatever is in front of him at the moment.
The fact that humans continue to wage wars is indeed confusing because this is the most primitive nature of human beings. No one can change it. But how great it is to save lives. Not everyone can be a hero, but I believe everyone has a righteous heart to face the corruption in this world
Oh boy, if only you've seen the show. If only you've seen what kind of life a man named Emiya Kiritsugu had been through. This music is the perfect description of it.

@@rogueascendant6611 Beautiful. It sums up the feeling of the Nasuverse quite well. We see in the tragedies that befall heroes, the cruelty of the world, leaving no good unpunished. Yet within those heroes, we're shown the earnesty of mankind, struggling with an impossible selflessness. Together, they form a mesmerising juxtaposition, that reads like a sunset. Two opposite concepts in the same space, defining one another in ways unseen alone. Light and dark. Hope and despair. And the beauty in between.

Not by a 'Hero', anyway.* ...Well, you might call the people who helped you a Hero, and you may even honestly believe that they are, which is fine. ...But even in that case I've never even had that much. The most I can say was that ordinary people sometimes helped me out from time to time and that's it. Really though... It'd be ludicrous to think I'm anyone's 'hero'. ...I couldn't even make one person legitimately happy since the day I was born. Now, don't misunderstand me.

You my friend, have quite the flare for drama. Ever considered writing? That aside though, if one were to take this seriously, then the simple answer is no. It aint wrong to believe that, however, wanting to earnestly help people and wanting to be a Hero are two different things, and both are byproducts of the other. Spending a life earnestly wanting to help people and doing so is admirable, and is more than enough for people to call you a hero. There are people like that in the world. Who honestly care and help because they care. Everyone meddles in others lives in some way, these kinds of people just want to make sure you do ok as they do so. Wanting to be a hero is different. Helping people is the byproduct. Sure you may want to help people, but ultimately the motivation for wanting to be a hero is to want to live by the ideals of justice and benevolence. Thats doesn't mean you don't genuinely care for people, just that you want to uphold your own ideals of justice and love. Its never wrong to want to spend your whole life helping people, but you must know for what reason you do so. For others, or for yourself. Neither choice is wrong, but its still something you must know otherwise you may end up regretting it for the rest of your life. Kinda like Archer

I help people a lot, not because I want to but out of obligation. Theres only 1 person I earnestly want to help to the very end. I'm no hero but rather someone that hates doing nothing.
I didn't payed attention on ost when i watched Fate series but instantly when I finished the shows I searched the ost and I was blown up these songs are great.
Somehow that place in that image is familiar. Something that I kept seeing in my dreams. A peaceful dark world, with a night sky and white illuminating pillar of light that reaches above the world that is eternally dark. The trees that is barely alive with snow covered over it. Just like how I am alive in this world.
i love this song and how it sounds. it sounds like the scene and almost visually remakes the scene alone. if you could please just close your eyes and imagne the sounds as waves

@@King_Of_Lolis You can't tell me you kinda wanted to scream YES when shinji died in HF. (the joy of the moment wasn't as big since psycho sakura but still) In UBW he lives and becomes a better person, but he still suffers a lot and you can see him get punched by lancer.
@@noble7065 he died waaaay to fast in heavens feel We talking 1 cut and he died That wasnt fun at all As for ubw You really think he became a better person? This is shinji we talking about
Demon Slayer has great animation I will not doubt that, but it‘s story was a real letdown especially towards the end of the manga. But I will not fault the writer here, he was on a super tight schedule and had limited chapters to work with so everything felt rushed. Fate doesn‘t have this problem and when I read through the VN everything just fit neatly storywise...although Hollow ataraxia still throws me out the loop(pun intended)
Its hard to compare them. Demon Slayer is a shonen anime, made for a younger audience. Fate is more mature, deals with dark themes and tragic stories. Both are good in one way or another, but for me Fate is the best piece of fiction ever created. Sorry Tolkien.
ahh same composer as sao wonder why i semi recognized the ost that being said i love the fact that they added references to fate/zero in ubw i really do feel bad for kiritsugu but what happened to him is realistic you can save someone without killing another someone will get hurt by saving someone its just human nature and he tried to fight with human nature which is what destroyed him a human going against his own nature can never work the only way to stop human natue is by killing all humans and ending this disease fate is an anime that really is just that amazing
sleepyprinny Emiya Kiritsugu An example of a truly beautiful failure and a testament to the hypocrisy that is human nature born of a genuine wish to save people. A tragic irony that borders on heartbreaking...so much so that one can't help but cry for the poor fool...envy that fervent and grandiose wish and condemn him for his delusions as a ridiculous farce. Indeed, a real sense of catharsis can be seen in the guilt ridden to the point of broken son Shirou whose life ends just as pathetically betrayed in life by his own actions and the very people he'd save only to willingly damn himself to ean eternity of "saving" mankind by mercilessly ending their lives all because we are disgusting and near irredeemable mistakes to a planet that should've purged us outright. No wonder then that the guilt drove Archer further to despair, so much so that he thought killing himself would end his torment in a last twisted, yet understandable, act of salvation to his younger self... Add to that Shirou coming to terms with all by admitting that it is all a lie and yet pressing forward regardless showing a strength that may actually let him become a hero... Still, the price he paid to get there....I wonder if anyone could pay with that level of conviction. ..
Yes you are right. I really like resolution of shirou's dream. I think shirou's ideal was not childish. It is like us humans who dreams a utopian world where everyone can live happily, freely and equally without any dispute but it is impossible. It doesn't mean we disregard this dream. We humans still chase this ideal, causes us to improve and make a better world to live. It is impossible to create perfect world but idea of perfect world forces us humans to improve in whole human history. This is also adopted by shirou. He can't make a perfect world but he can make better place for people. He will try to save as many people as he can but he will not regret for anyone which he can't able to save. Archer kills many people but he forget that he was able to create a better place for humans to live. He forget the joy for saving someone even it cost someone. It is the biggest resolution of shirou of his ideal in unlimited blade works.
u all didn't get the meaning.. if u die because u are killed by someone, it is a REAL death. your soul killed by another soul.. how weak u are.. how shame.. but if u die because natural cause, it is different. that's what shirou meant. this meme is going too far away and always repeated over and over on internet. i'm tired of this shit. the only funny quote is the rin's quote about "archer class really made up from archer". but rin did that on purpose.. she can't praise someone directly. soo she use sarcasm or something like that to praise archer's competency. soo it's not funny
You'd think he was merely "stating the obvious", but ask yourself this. Do you actually understand that ppl die when they're killed, or do you only rationally and theoretically understand the concept of ppl dying when they're killed? Shirou was bathed in a sea of death and flames as he watched ppl die, left others to die, and was himself dying. For the rest of us, death when ppl are killed is mere hindsight in many cases. It's distant and abstract until you see it for yourself. Distance is everything as far as context is concerned.... all the more poignant when you're a part of that context. It's less Shirou being dumb and more to him laying out in no uncertain terms the finality of confronting death by the hundreds only to nearly die yourself. Trauma and survivors guilt left him pretty messed up.
Since Kajiura realized SAO was gonna be some shitty A1 - Shonen adaptation she got lazy and decided to remaster some of Fate/Zero's OSTs for it. F/Z is the Prequel To F/SN. Listen to "Rule the Battlefield" and tell me what does this remind you of. Here's the Link: ua-cam.com/video/PxZov8-DBHo/v-deo.html
It isn't even that tbh Kaijura's more recent stuff since after Madoka and Zero have mostly just been redones of her tracks to those so they sound very alike it's called the 'Kaijura effect' Not that it matters because each track has a semi-different flair and still sound amazing.
Tony Redgrave yeap,, the heavens feel trilogy soundtrack had huge throwbacks to zero, had dashes of kara no kyoukai,, and the battlescene music was... well... find “she rules the battlefield” and “he rises again and again”. Lets just say, I am in utter jealousy at the people who watched lost butterfly in theatres😂😂😂
@@siphemanana2551 I kinda cringe at what I said here tbh The major reason to those ACTUALLY wondering is that Kajiura around this time in particular was inspired by her own music an example of this is Fate/Zero's OST and the tracks she wrote for it made her want to do full versions of motifs she had in it in SAO itself. You can usually draw similiarties to many of Kajiura's works because of this as each project she does tends to be the inspiration for the next.

1:54 the track real begins 😍
Whenever I see fate fans get so poetic in the comments, it always makes me cry
This is my favorite song in my entire life.
Listening to this always has me feeling emotional man, such good music
*3:21** My Favorite Part! ♥️🔥*
Mine two. Would really wish for a Long piece with this on repeat
i love this song and how it sounds. it sounds like the scene and almost visually remakes the scene alone. if you could please just close your eyes and imagne the sounds as waves
Hey!!.. thats hell you're walking into
In Nasuverse, its dark and cold. The reality that we know whether from the mundane or in the moonlit world.
All around vestige of cruelty and beast all alike.
For Gaia, the will of the planet, sought humanity destruction upon her pleading to the Ultimate One, Crimson Moon.
But hope not lost when humanity collective will Alaya presents the heroes of old to defend us from the darkness and extinction.
Still it won't go away. The ill fates destined to sought and wrought us into a hopeless and broken existence.
Sometimes we all need a little push, a little hope, a glimmer of light that would bring us peace.
One was born from that day upon curses, brimstone and fire.
A boy so broken that he die that day but brought back upon a man that caused it.
Never again the boy the same for he cannot be again the same he was.
Like nothing just to fill the empty void.
He relived the man's ideal to become the hero of justice.
Even though it would bring destruction and regret.
Why hell?... I just don't get it
@@namesecondname8697 umm... because it's a never ending labyrinth of sufferings... and the tale of ideals not being able to realize the dreams of peace and prosperity... wait you're asking this with an Illya dp? 😅
@@uselesshero.official XD... dunno XD
Its raining right now
And this song hit my feeling hard...
fate is the ultimate cure to "chuunibyou", or you may say, those naruto-running weaboos and something along that line.
it makes me randomly chant noble phantasms on the street, a true cure
Naruto can never match fate.
Maybe I love Naruto but my love for fate is way intense
@@aaradhyasrivastava2400 same man. Fate is better than Naruto imo, but Naruto has a special place in my heart because I grew up with that anime.
NGL I cried for this episode, you did amazing herc
To love someone that will never be yours is very painful, and it is a lot more painful when that someone is always be with you
This OST is the best
very good quality. *gives thumbs up*
There is such sadness in this music
I miss masters from zero
They were all awesome in their own way even waver
And there was no shinji back then
Ahh good ol times
But the fact that Shinji exists means that you can watch him suffer.
@@noble7065 in first route he dies off screen
In ubw they save him sadly
In heavens feel he dies too quickly
There wasnt much joy
@@King_Of_Lolis You can't tell me you kinda wanted to scream YES when shinji died in HF. (the joy of the moment wasn't as big since psycho sakura but still)
In UBW he lives and becomes a better person, but he still suffers a lot and you can see him get punched by lancer.
@@noble7065 he died waaaay to fast in heavens feel
We talking 1 cut and he died
That wasnt fun at all
As for ubw
You really think he became a better person? This is shinji we talking about
@@King_Of_Lolis I mean he did because the author said as much.
Fate is better than Demon Slayer
Change my mind
That isn’t an opinion just fact.
Demon Slayer has great animation I will not doubt that, but it‘s story was a real letdown especially towards the end of the manga.
But I will not fault the writer here, he was on a super tight schedule and had limited chapters to work with so everything felt rushed.
Fate doesn‘t have this problem
and when I read through the VN everything just fit neatly storywise...although Hollow ataraxia still throws me out the loop(pun intended)
Its hard to compare them. Demon Slayer is a shonen anime, made for a younger audience.
Fate is more mature, deals with dark themes and tragic stories.
Both are good in one way or another, but for me Fate is the best piece of fiction ever created. Sorry Tolkien.
@@aaradhyasrivastava2400 because seinen>>>>shounen
@@aaradhyasrivastava2400 just my personal opinion 😅😅hope i didn't triggered anyone 😂
maybe? maybe in another life we shall meet
Thank you very much, Mr_MoMo! 🙏
Why is this anime underrated in India😭
ahh same composer as sao wonder why i semi recognized the ost that being said i love the fact that they added references to fate/zero in ubw i really do feel bad for kiritsugu but what happened to him is realistic you can save someone without killing another someone will get hurt by saving someone its just human nature and he tried to fight with human nature which is what destroyed him a human going against his own nature can never work the only way to stop human natue is by killing all humans and ending this disease fate is an anime that really is just that amazing
sleepyprinny
Emiya Kiritsugu
An example of a truly beautiful failure and a testament to the hypocrisy that is human nature born of a genuine wish to save people.
A tragic irony that borders on heartbreaking...so much so that one can't help but cry for the poor fool...envy that fervent and grandiose wish and condemn him for his delusions as a ridiculous farce.
Indeed, a real sense of catharsis can be seen in the guilt ridden to the point of broken son Shirou whose life ends just as pathetically betrayed in life by his own actions and the very people he'd save only to willingly damn himself to ean eternity of "saving" mankind by mercilessly ending their lives all because we are disgusting and near irredeemable mistakes to a planet that should've purged us outright.
No wonder then that the guilt drove Archer further to despair, so much so that he thought killing himself would end his torment in a last twisted, yet understandable, act of salvation to his younger self...
Add to that Shirou coming to terms with all by admitting that it is all a lie and yet pressing forward regardless showing a strength that may actually let him become a hero...
Still, the price he paid to get there....I wonder if anyone could pay with that level of conviction. ..
At least Kiritsugu got to die and rest in peace while his son was doomed to become a counter-guardian forever.
Yes you are right. I really like resolution of shirou's dream. I think shirou's ideal was not childish. It is like us humans who dreams a utopian world where everyone can live happily, freely and equally without any dispute but it is impossible. It doesn't mean we disregard this dream. We humans still chase this ideal, causes us to improve and make a better world to live. It is impossible to create perfect world but idea of perfect world forces us humans to improve in whole human history.
This is also adopted by shirou. He can't make a perfect world but he can make better place for people. He will try to save as many people as he can but he will not regret for anyone which he can't able to save. Archer kills many people but he forget that he was able to create a better place for humans to live. He forget the joy for saving someone even it cost someone. It is the biggest resolution of shirou of his ideal in unlimited blade works.
Still here .. in 2024..
"People die when they get killed"
Thanks for the info Shirou
u all didn't get the meaning..
if u die because u are killed by someone, it is a REAL death. your soul killed by another soul..
how weak u are.. how shame..
but if u die because natural cause, it is different.
that's what shirou meant.
this meme is going too far away and always repeated over and over on internet. i'm tired of this shit.
the only funny quote is the rin's quote about "archer class really made up from archer". but rin did that on purpose.. she can't praise someone directly. soo she use sarcasm or something like that to praise archer's competency. soo it's not funny
He's stating that's how things should be, since people certainly don't die when their killed in the VN. Especially not him. He's being wise not dumb.
and until now, this meme still exists on internet. my question is, who is dumb. shirou or ppl that think this quote is funny?
Dzulfiqar Bagas Tito people
You'd think he was merely "stating the obvious", but ask yourself this.
Do you actually understand that ppl die when they're killed, or do you only rationally and theoretically understand the concept of ppl dying when they're killed?
Shirou was bathed in a sea of death and flames as he watched ppl die, left others to die, and was himself dying.
For the rest of us, death when ppl are killed is mere hindsight in many cases.
It's distant and abstract until you see it for yourself.
Distance is everything as far as context is concerned.... all the more poignant when you're a part of that context.
It's less Shirou being dumb and more to him laying out in no uncertain terms the finality of confronting death by the hundreds only to nearly die yourself.
Trauma and survivors guilt left him pretty messed up.
Good
Bro where can I get this wallpaper...
Script.
Hypothetically, he would kill his wife and daughter if it meant he could save the world.
The tragedy is that that sort of opportunity doesn't exist.
For some reason it reminds me of SAO, god what a beauty
its because yuki kajiura composed this and sao soundtrack !!
You got my sub
0:00
Ow thank you so much this helps XDD WHAT IS THIS
Are you sure this track is official? I can't find it among Yuki Kajiura's OST.
美しい
when ubw use this sountrack?
Shirou flashback when he got adopted
abajo en el cero
숨지마라 루미아
2022.11.3
Sounds like SAO sad music
Both from one composer, Yuki Kajiura
Wwwww
when was this played? I don't remember
In the first episode for sure when Shirou was walking around town before work and was reminiscing about the day of the fire and Kiritsugu saving him
I am like 2,000 XD
Sounds like sword art online?
Since Kajiura realized SAO was gonna be some shitty A1 - Shonen adaptation she got lazy and decided to remaster some of Fate/Zero's OSTs for it. F/Z is the Prequel To F/SN. Listen to "Rule the Battlefield" and tell me what does this remind you of.
Here's the Link: ua-cam.com/video/PxZov8-DBHo/v-deo.html
It isn't even that tbh Kaijura's more recent stuff since after Madoka and Zero have mostly just been redones of her tracks to those so they sound very alike it's called the 'Kaijura effect'
Not that it matters because each track has a semi-different flair and still sound amazing.
Tony Redgrave yeap,, the heavens feel trilogy soundtrack had huge throwbacks to zero, had dashes of kara no kyoukai,, and the battlescene music was... well... find “she rules the battlefield” and “he rises again and again”. Lets just say, I am in utter jealousy at the people who watched lost butterfly in theatres😂😂😂
@@TheDragonsPit people call it the 'Kajiura Magic' lol 😂
@@siphemanana2551 I kinda cringe at what I said here tbh
The major reason to those ACTUALLY wondering is that Kajiura around this time in particular was inspired by her own music an example of this is Fate/Zero's OST and the tracks she wrote for it made her want to do full versions of motifs she had in it in SAO itself.
You can usually draw similiarties to many of Kajiura's works because of this as each project she does tends to be the inspiration for the next.
It's a masterpiece
