Heroes like fate arash and leonitus are remembered not just for there deeds but there willingness to sacrifice themselves for there people. They weren't all gods, monsters, royalty( except leonitus but he was a soldier as well). They were ordinary people who sacrificed themselves in near unwinnable odds. Hell look at jon of ark. He phantasms are the flag of freedom powered by the belief in it. And her burning flower, which is given strength by her belief in god righteousness and forgiveness to the world that turned on her. There legends begin and end with there love for the people and home
I love how simple Stella is compared to Rhongomyniad. It's not a magical pillar of light, just a single arrow made of a Arash's very will and determination.
Noble phantasm and other big magical swords are concept contradicting or meaning laden powers and achievements. Arash happens to have the words "peace for the common people" all over it.
It is inherently a noble phantasm that stops conflict. If it didn’t come at such a massive personal cost, it would be one of the absolute best defensive NPs in all of fate.
@@aredjayc2858 arash is such great hero that his name and fame is so high that if any persian government tries to suppress him or his legends is doomed to fall. It doesn't matter what is your religion everyone in iran respect him even the current government respect Arash or at the very least they are portending to respect him.
*O holy lord of the sun's rays; One who bestows all wisdom, majesty… and strength. O shining lord. My heart, my thoughts… and my accomplishments be examined. Come, you who created the moon and the stars. My deeds. My end. Behold, my Spənta Ārmaiti! As I unleash this final arrow, let my very being… be shredded into dust! Stella!*
The saddest part of his legend? He never lived in peace times He was born during the war and his death ended it. On top of that he's going to be summoned in either a HGW or as part of the counter forces' efforts to quell a threat, so he'll never live in peace even as a servant.
His and Tawaara Toutas noble phantasm (The lore one, not the one he uses in battle) are my favorites, due to the fact that they aren't soley for destruction. Arashs brings peace, and Toutas, helps those in need. True heroes.
"o holy lord of the sun's rays(father in heaven), one who bestows all wisdom, majesty and strength. O Shining lord( you who sacrificed everything). My heart, my thoughts and my accomplishments be examined(judge my very being). Come, you who created the moon and the stars( you who created everything). My deeds. My end. Behold, my spenta armaiti! ( behold the story of my life). As I unleash this final arrow, let my very being be shredded into dust!( as i surrender this ephemeral life, let there be a way for the future) STELLA! (lone meteor)"
For a human such as him to have that kind of power and using it only to save, not destroy. This man... is a true hero. The best thing to hope for him is that he knows his sacrifice gave Fukimaru the time he needed. So that he knows his sacrifice was not in vain.
I wasn't a fan of this movie but Arash left a big impression on me. He won me over even with his limited screen time and became my favorite character. A truly noble hero!
never have i thought my tears would drop seing Arash uses his NP after seeing him died many times from my 3turn farming in FGO..he is a strong servant, even though he's a 1* in game, his NP damage matched with some of other AOE NP servant, even some of the 5* servant
This scene is just the perfect representation of how powerful a human can be If we compare there isn't any shield in the anime or any barrier or any weapon in anime stronger than rhongominyad which can reveal the reverse side of world in just one swing at its prime except Ea but still a single arrow carrying Nothing but the stronger determined will of its archer who just wants to stop the devastation That single arrow neutralizes the judgement of rhongominyad Thats one of the most beautiful moments oF the whole anime series
Not just his damage; the suicide part of his AoE makes it so you can effectively expand a farming party’s number of Servants by 1. Can use 3 with batteries/CEs to use three NPs, 4 if you use the Mystic Code swapping ability, 5 if one of those is Arash used early.
What I love the most about Arash, he is one of the most 'F/SN' looking servants coming from FGO. Not only design but skillset. He doesn't have a very distinctive trait that tells away his identity like Saber's excalibur which she has to conceal with Gradation Air. Until he fires his NP that is, which normally he wouldnt in a Grail War because that means bye bye for him. In a world where servants go 'here is my identity you total stranger of a master I just met for 0.5 seconds', and have more outlandish designs/skillsets, he reminded of what compelled me to like the OG material of the franchise in the first place (and even then, in F/SN in the prologue 1 servant identity is almost instantly given away when Saber calls out Lancer). Another very nice touch is that his NP is mostly conceptual. In the game 'end all conflict' means yeeting a full wave of mobs while we farm, in here is to deactivate the actual tactical nuke that is Rhongo.
as an Iranian, Arash Kamangir has always been my favorite legend since my childhood. I'm so happy that he had a role in Fate Franchise. Btw I don't know why his NP's name is Stella, it isn't a Persian word, I expected it to have a Persian name. anyways, it's still so cool!
In Fate almost all heroic spirits noble phantasm has a meaning, like Arash here or another example is Excalibur: sword of the promised victory... like some of the characters in the franchise had said sometimes, the NP is like a resume of their legend
Well it's probably on you Persians for not writing down cool names for his final arrow in the legends. Japanese folklore gives lots of names for techniques, even just as simple as jumping over boats to do one sword swing. That's why Ushi gets Hassou Tobi and Arash gets Stella. Should've named his last arrow something epic.
@@straypaper @straypaper you're kinda right but I'm sure there was much more into our legends, though most of them are lost and forgotten these days, now we're under Islamic culture instead. Sadly.
Remember the apocrypha fgo event where chiron admitted that "in archery in no match for someone like arash kamangir" yep that's a literal demi God saying he's not match to a human in archery. That should give you an idea of how strong arash is.

One of the few moments that defines the meaning of Heroic Spirit, Arash sacrifices himself to fend off Rhongomyniad because he has faith in Humanity to turn for better which is represented by Ritsuka.
The war is it it's climax. He knows war, the fear, the pain of love lost. His body, his mind, his soul and the sacrifice of those lost are the catalyst for the arrow that ends it all conflict! Stella!!!!
Arash may not be the strongest, neither the smartest nor the most popular. But one fact that nobody can't and will never denied is That Arash is *INDEED* *The Great Persian Hero!*
Heroic Spirits are called Heroic because they Never give up. They strive to become the best of the best,while enduring the suffering in order to achieve that goal . But....... Even after their death they Never get peace
Thats a true Hero... And for me its one of the best NP in all of Fate. So Simple but its a NP that shows the True Meaning of a Hero... To give your Life for the innocent people....
Alot of Fate "fan" or "fanatic" will say only Ufotable can make great Fate series that has high quality animation and even if other studio manage to do the same it's only one scene and one scene alone. In they mind only Ufotable make the perfect full movie/series animation and deserve the main/darker series. This scene, this entire movie is a visual orgasm. IG never disappointed me.
@@feristrizaldi7376 This scene? yes Entire movie? also yes I understand, it's hard to look at other work when you been spoiled by Ufotable animation. Hell Madhouse and Kyoani even look like Studio Deen when compare to Ufotable these days.
