"I shall not swing my sword at an unarmed man, for it breaks my pledge as a knight. However, should you order me to do so, I shall obey your orders Master."

These words are made of pure respect, I have never knew such great quotes before.

Being her true form as a knight with a sword, we all should know that she is King Artorius, King Arthur, the one true king and wielder of Excalibur

I think, as the story unfolds now, I wonder what would make Shirou fight for, would he choose to fight in his naivette thinking?

One thing bugs me, who is Sakura? How is she related to Rin, they seemed very close together...
She seems to know her well enough to make her awkward, "the smell of blood" she mentioned, what was she talking about?

Oh, and the scene where Saber stands with her sword, with her wound ripping like that was an amazing scene, someone should take the screen cap and make a vectorized wall out of it. It is so cool! We now know that Berserker is Hercules, so I think it will be wise to assume that he is also not as demonic as he looks, he is a demigod, I wonder would that affect him being a servant? I wonder as well, just how powerful is Ilya, and she seems to be related to Rin, Rin seems shocked when Ilya revealed her name to her.

Hercules has long since lost practically all his sanity. More info:

Ilya forces Hercules to use the skill "Mad Enhancement" over and over to increase his power so that he cannot truly control himself ever. Before he actually became a servant, he often went mad and went on killing sprees because of Zeus' wife, Hera, who throughly hated Hercules for being a half-god, often ruined his life by making it extremely traumatic for him. (Making Hercules going insane and killing his wife and children, getting poisoned by his wife, burning himself right after..) In the Heaven's Feel part of F/SN he becomes Black Berserker by being possessed by the Shadow but seems weaker than his counterpart as he loses his sight and hearing, and his power is lowered by being the opposite affinity of the Shadow. If you want to know about the Shadow continue on to the next spoiler...

Rin and Sakura are sisters. I'll try not to give away too much info. Anyways, in the Heaven's Feel synopsis Sakura is the Shadow and this is her Dark side. The Vessel of the Holy Grail was planted as a worm inside her by Zouken when she was born. Sakura is actually EXTREMELY strong Ilya is----(another spoiler coming up, just a heads up to those who only wanted to know Sakura's identity.)
Ilya is the Holy Grail. Sakura takes Ilya after she truly becomes dark and attempts to complete the Holy Grail. Since I don't want to spoil you guys to death, I'll stop here. =]

Just watched the 4th episode... the show is off to a decent start. I hope the show can carry all the way through and provide a strong ending, something that animes have seem to be lacking recently. The action scenes though are pretty nice.

I dont no much about the game. but the anime so far is pretty good. i mean the begining was so cool. just like all anime the first person that you see in the anime that is a guy is usually really stupid. hahaha but i recommend the anime

The show is pretty good so far. I've watched 4 of the episodes so far and its alright. I like the fight scenes, and the theme and plot of the show I guess... I just don't understand why there is a huge battle over the holy grail... why the holy grail ?!?!? o.O Doesn't make much sense to me there, but its a cool show. I love the animation, it looks just like Shakugan No Shana ^__^. Its promising, and I really hope it turns into a great series.

why the holy grail ?!?!? o.O

simple.. to have their ultimate wish granted =p

Omg so many spoilers x_X i just finished watching ep 4 and all i've got to say is.. WOW awesome animation and dialogue plus alittle more character development for Saber

SPOILER (click to view)

i was so shocked when Shirou took that hit for Saber but at the same time i felt as if i'd do the same thing in that situation. but now im thinking nah :P

one thing that bothered me was that eclipse-fansubs spelt Hercules as Heracles XD oh well. I can't wait for the next ep. each one's always leaving me on the edge of my seat.

SPOILER (click to view)

i also like the humor implemented at the end between Shirou and Saber, the whole "you have many enemies don't you?" thing cause Saber was like "an empty stomach is an enemy" or something :P sorry i can't remember XD

I think im gonna go watch this episode again, just amazing. Shirou x Saber forver XD

Thanks for the info, i actually love being spoiled so I would not mind, however, the ones you mentioned will depend on what ending it will follow, however, the fundamentals of which you mention is indeed informative.

I come to regard FSN as very confusing, so far, (if you are not like me who loves spoilers) you will realize that the terms used and the story explained is not really all that clear. Of course, I hope that they will clear up over a span of episodes that are to come.

for example, I hope to see more of the following, such as Berserker's more human side, than that barbaric side of his, it appears that since he is Hercules, and once demigod, so well, there was a time when he was at peace with himself, I am not sure if it will happen, but i surely hope to hear more from him than grunts and groans.

Very nice episode 4 is, i like the part where she is struggling so hard to stand up, that part, is indeed a wonder, makes me feel sad and respect for her honor and pledge as a knight.

one thing that bothered me was that eclipse-fansubs spelt Hercules as Heracles XD oh well.

actually both are correct.. "Heracles" is what the Greeks pronounced his name as.. while "Hercules" was how the Romans pronounced it..

lol thanks for clarifying that up ^^

Yes i heard about that and i am looking forward to watch it. the graphics are good. I heard that it is about mages battling with each other!

Im interested in what all is going to happen with the girl with the purple hair, because it is pretty obvious she will have a role in the battles with her whole comment of being able to smell the blood on rin, kinda wierd, even though my favorite character is saber, i also really like the character of the girl who is beserkers master, she has that really ruthless yet innocent personality that gives the feeling she has a lot of dirty tricks up her sleeve.

I can safely say.. that when the series comes close to the end... you dedicated viewers will all be surprised at the twists =p

Actually I'm kinda thankful that they didn't go into the whole sex/power thing especially with that little girl and Hercules haha. I love the whole "servants based on historical/fictional figures" thing. The only thing that ticks me off is the main character's attitude. Heck I don't even like his character design. Other than that, this is shaping up real well. Maybe FSN will be the anime of 2006.

From what ive heard from my friends they say this anime is pretty good, and ive watched a few episodes and so far ive rlly enjoyed it. =D
