Fate/Stay Night UBW Abridged - Ep4: Ideal Archer 

So... is this beautiful series dead? :(

I checked and their working on getting voice actors for episodes 5 and 6

I volunteer as tribute!!! ❤️🦊❤️

@@Spicystachegamer i mean.. half a year is over but hell yea. i would love to see more of this

@@Fence07 same i love this so much

Meanwhile in Apocrabridged (not really though) Sieg: *sees jeanne* Saber? Jeanne: does my chests look that flat to you? Sieg: good point ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Well at one point the French and the British did had a sort of rivalry

Which is strange because she is from Welsh tales.

​@bryan diaz varela Wales didn't become part of England till over a millennium after the tales of Arthur were told. Also, a Welsh accent and a British accent are completely different sounding.

@bryan diaz varela Unable to use a search engine and losing some memory, I guess so.

have you heard the diss that lancer dropped in the latest episode?

*I mean, how many man can say they gave king arthur 2 orgasms*

​@@avroarchitect1793I mean, Cu Chulainn _is_ a womanizer.

@@davidajayi6516 oh night God I right know?

Am I only the one thinking the Pocket Monsters Musashi and Kojiro get their name from Musashi Miyamoto and Sasaki Kojiro? This comment sounds random srry hahaha

She saw what happened with Mordred maybe she trying to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Especially with her... complicated history with his adoptive father. It also makes it much sweeter that she's actually trying to take care of someone after she both didn't have the chance to _and_ failed to do so once she did with Mordred. I like to think once Artoria learns to open up to allowing herself to be a _person_ instead of a king she'd begin to see the parallels between Shirou and Mordred.

Well in her day, long life was not common. Perhaps concept of 16 and 20 year old was more common? Look at the old ways of basically selling your daughter for s pig or other item. Best I can tell it was not commonly like age to future husband. Plus chivalry way of handling women was not the fallacy people believe today.

Didn't she stop aging at 15 when she drew the sword from the stone?

@@pavelbinnell1324 Yeah but she's still 35 if you exclude the time since she "died" and Shirou is 17 soooo Saber was cradle robbin'

He's feeling a very complicated version of hatred.

@@Ian-wn5lc that's how it is when you hate yourself.

Archer: Shut up Shirou

@@hellborne7995 but it's not just hating yourself, its hating a part version of yourself in a different time while also hating the current version of yourself. Slightly more complicated by the fact he probably cant tell if he hats him on his own merits or just becuase he is himself.

@@Ezekiel_Allium basically an amplified cringing on your early years

@midgetydeath why not both

@@alexanderjohnson3014 both is good

@midgetydeath except this is the servant who needs two command seals for absolute obedience, so I doubt 1 "no" can stop her

i read someone saying that it's because in the old celtic language, king's arthur's legend is , supossely, based in part from celtics , there was't the word "no", they used to use something like "isn't or aren't"

You forgot "let me fuck you harder daddy"

I laugh every time. XD That’s a low blow troll jab at Archer.

Also indirectly calling saber a bad teacher

@@wyatthatch1952 or just calling archer a bad student. Which is even more insulting as he's basically being told he didn't keep up his training IN FRONT OF HIS TEACHER. WHOM HE IS IN LOVE WITH!!!

@@VitaeLibra that's even better

@@wyatthatch1952 kinda stole some of it from another comment but glad you like it

I fell like "His swordmanship is lacking" hurt on a much deeper level

@@GigglesClown how?

@@myoldchannel0 because he was trained by saber, the person he loved who was also watching and probably thinking the same thing or at least thats my take on it, could be his swordsmanship is an integral part if his being after so long

@@GigglesClown pretty sure archer EMIYA has his own style, didn’t saber make a big deal about that in UBW

@@superkc2557 He does have his own style, which he knew how to develop thanks to being trained in the first place. You kinda need to have good training in using swords first if you want to develop a good unique style.

And then he immediately comments on what a terrible line to come in on that was.

@@serendipitousdestruction5266 A very good detail. It does show how Shirou and Archer are exactly alike, but Archer (Emiya) has grown out of some things. He became a hero, and he doesn't have to tell himself or the world that he's a hero.

@@knightofsteel2783 ...i dont get it plz explain

@@kingofthejungle5338 kiritsugu used guns and saber thought shirou was using his dad's Magic and she hates kiritsugu

@@Fedorchik1536 his bullet magic manifested his Origin inside his enemies, in that it manifested Severing and Binding, his other magical specialty apart from time magic. If I remember correctly that's what it was.

Shh don't tell her

I laughed so hard knowing what becomes of Ron and hermione

It's also based in canon - when Rin mentions wanting to take Shirou on as an apprentice, his first thoughts on how his living arrangements will change is he'll be stuffed into a cupboard under the stairs.

That freaking dadceloth and his secret ruler class was a pain and Mordred spamming like a yandere on steroids or that sun guy I'm havinga flashback .... I hated that singularity it went from chill game to hey hello and your dead Amazing story though

Before Camelot: I kill everything Camelot: Everything kills me

Do what I did I got my Vlad berserker my mash at 60 with her abilities above 6 and a borrow Merlin first two with np charge C's and the Merlin if possible with kaleidoscope / 2030 / or anything with np charge and just do art chains when they pop mash defense plus Merlin's healing keep alive you main attacker and after mash evolves at around chapter 15 she gets attack buff on the np it's a bit slow but one of the safest and reliable ways to beat them Also it gets worse on Babylonia 😢😭😭😭😭

Babylonia is not as bad as Camelot admittedly.. In terms of sheer ridicule that some bosses had.. This was where reading to cutscenes actually led to helping with the right dialogue options and had some form of countermeasure in place.. I got destroyed in a few turns for agreeing with a Lucha Libre Goddess of Wrestling.. No really..

There is another theory the Koijiro was dead when musashi showed up and had been assassinated for political reasons and musashi said he killed Koijiro to save him from dishonorable death.

John Kubiak huh...I’ve never heard that before. Interesting.

Anyone know if there’s any interaction between Kojiro and Musashi in FGO?

@@manwithabasicprofilepic yeah in shimosa they throw down Koijiro wins and the player warps time and changes what happens so musashi isn't killed. Koijiro stops the fighting and walks away.

Funny thing is, I literally only get this reference because of Epic Rap Battles.

Her harem is larger than Shirou and it includes her own sister

@@tonyinfinite5174 And yet her harem doesn't include her actual wife.

@@tonyinfinite5174 I bet it includes her son, too. Who is also a woman.

@@patrickfrost9405 checked the replies just for this comment.

Rin wants her, Shirou gets her, Caster wants her, SAKURA GETS HER, even after her route she's still at the center of things

the best part is that the Shirou in him actually comes out HARD there.

What's his name other saber Whispers it's shirou It is shirou

and through Shirou's stupidity

Forplay for servants

Your Everyday Protagonist He's not stupid though, just extremely lacking in self-worth.

@Grass No. He's damn stupid as well. He would rather attack Berserker in melee combat with a strengthened stick to save Rin, something that had 0 chances of success, if Nasu wasn't a hack writer, than attacking Illya, who, as far as he knew it, was a defenseless little girl without her servant. He frequently endangered his own allies with his reckless behaviour, not to mention countless civilians. He is stupid and inconsistent, just like the plot itself, for the most part. Nothing meant shit because Nasu would rewrite the rules of his own damn universe every second turn for Shirou to make it to the end. The thing with Shirou is... he should have died, the end.

IchCharacter He primarily went after Berserker because of his lack of self worth. When Shirou sees someone in danger, he's instinctively compelled to help them. Even if it means endangering or hurting those that care about him, he has a compulsive need to help others. Selfish? Sure, that's something Archer mentioned during their battle in the UBW route. Mentally unstable? Why of course, that's why he has a Reality Marble. I certainly wouldn't call him dumb though. As for Nasu being inconsistent, I've got no rebuttal there. He constantly changes how stuff works, creating literal wars between lore nuts over what's canon and what isn't. The story of Fate/stay night is FAR from being a masterpiece, but I personally really enjoy it for what it is.

Pretty sure Logan does voice Kiritsugu and Future Shirou.

Caster's performance is 110% too

My favourite is Assasin, hands down. I still come back here to listen to "Ah, King Arthur".

I mean, shirou is always right foundation for those who get what I'm referencing

H.L He plays the Emiya. The Father, The Son and the Heroic Spirit

I don't get it, whats the joke?

@@MJ-pu5lf One of her Noble Phantasms is called Rule Breaker, which allows her to break pretty much most rules... and servant contracts.

Ba dum tss.

Don’t you mean romance?

No bromance

Ikr? This version does some much justice to Other-Saber!

This bromance and the bromance she had with lancer in Zero are sweet. Sadly the latter was ruined by cruel realism, but I don't hate Kiritsugu for that.

"I certainly picked the worst words to come in on!" I'd say that is the part that truly got me

Shirou: so I noticed you shouted my name when you used your final attack on Caster. Should we talk about that?

Oh I wish they included that

He didn't hear Archer. He was being thrown around by waves of magical energy at that moment.

@@BlazingAzureCrow Oh yeah, forgot that tinnitus was a real thing.....Stupid anime logic making me forget about real consequences

Yes it is

@@Petrico94 dont you mean waaay wierder

@@hihelo5131 Yeah but i don't want to spoil the thing about the arm, just leaving it vague enough anyone who hasn't read the VN can be shocked how weird it gets

At which point it will turn into the "I have that." (comment from an earlier video.)

@@Ian-wn5lc really

I can't wait to see Rin saying: "So this is Hell""

The funny thing is, Unlimited Blade Works is LITERALLY that. And I love it.

Then there is Archer: "No you DONT!" Swings sword

I second this very strongly. My hat's off to Logan - he does a fantastic job every time he shows up! I never thought there would ever be an English-speaking dub where someone could remotely even compare to Suwabe Junichi... but 5 abridged episodes in and I have to say Suwabe-san has an equal.

Show should technically be about him, the fact that we are able to understand how he knows certain things help a lot

The best part is, if Saber actually convinced Rider that Other Saber was summoned in the Saber Class (And therefore has a decent Mana score at the very least), she'd be saving him from being insta-killed by Rider's petrification eyes, which would have been the easiest battle every if Shinji wasn't such a terrible master.

True saber and false saber. Fate strange/fake.

Slimeustas The Slime King * only one saber in strange fake *

@@genner108 Maybe there is a second one. We don't even know the true name of true berserker.

Also worth noting, if you take the lip flaps as indicating when he's actually speaking aloud rather than thinking it, he says "Feel the wrath - Fucking Emiya", making it just barely possible for Shirou to interpret that scene as the sequel to "Get wrecked Shirou".

I actually use this from time to time whenever I need to emphasize how different things are.

@@lizardperson9648 this is why

While this series makes frequent references to FSN and Fate/Zero, I think referencing FGO is a bit too obscure and would require some explaination.

@@adenbishop9683 During the early days of FGO, Kojirou was a effective unit to use againt wyvern enemies due to those being classed as rider-type enemies (FGO has rock-paper-scisors mechanic) and due to the fact that he was a easy unit to evolve to max level. Since the first chapter of FGO (happens in France) has a lot of wyverns, this ended up resulting in a meme where Sasaki became know as the saviour of France. From there a lot of other memes startep poping up, including the whole "Dragons are just bigger swallows".

@@adenbishop9683 This went even further when there was an event which has Saint George (famed as a dragon slayer) and Saint Martha (famed for taming a dragon-like monster) just hanging out eating stolen food with none other than Sasaki "Regend" Kojiro.

@@robospacekitty2007 Give me three things wrong with it. Try it.

I mean. I HOPE fat lesbians can enjoy it. The deserve to laugh same as anyone else.

The writing is better than in the actual show because they aren't trying to fit in source material with more words than LotR into a two-cour anime. F/SN will NEVER work perfectly as an adaptation, just because of how dense with information the VN is. Instead, they took the entirely sensible approach, worked off the assumption that anyone watching will be at least vaguely familiar with the Nasuverse, and crammed this bitch full of references while keeping to the proper story beats. It was a very smart way of taking on the series.

Yep the actual show has to introduce everything. The abridged has the luxury of 8 times out of 10 if your watching it you have basic lore knowledge

My lord, we really need you to get off the throne. Or at least install a damn text to speech device.

@CyanMedic The source material barely contains actual information either. For the most part, it's just Shirou monologuing about how he must be a hero and how Saber shouldn't fight. If you get down to the bottom of how little development actually happened in F/SN, you'd be shocked.

@@Mythos66 Yeah, Fate route. Other routes are more tolerable, but still rather lacking, for the most part.

@@BlazingAzureCrow all I'm saying is did a surprisingly decent job holding his own.

I do agree with that~ It's just not his swordsmanship that's doing the heavy lifting.

@@BlazingAzureCrow fair enough

@@BlazingAzureCrow Well if we go by that logic, then saber isn't that skilled in swordsmanship either. She has skills like Instinct and Mana Burst on top of her high stats( when under a good master ofc). In fact, Sasaki who is far inferior as far as parameters are concerned is giving her a lot of trouble(though he did have the advantage of the higher ground) and in Heaven's Feel, freaking HUMAN Shirou with archer's arm managed to defeat her with Triple-linked crane wings...And no, excuses like(oh her instinct skill and agility were lower bc she was blackened are not valid for the same reason you mentioned that archer's mind's eye is doing the heavy lifting).Admittedely, she didn't use excalibur and she may have been going easy on him but that DOE NOT completely justify her loss by any means. She was also bested in the first encounter with Diarmuid from Fate Zero. All in all, I wouldn't call Saber( who is not only supposed to specialize in sword combat but is also supposed to be ONE OF IF NOT THE BEST AT IT) a great swordswoman either. Not to mention the time when she got her ass destroyed by a freaking human teacher(yeah I know that he was super buffed by caster and yeah I know that he had the element of surprise and that he was a highly trained assassin blah blah blah but honestly it still doesn't justify the fact THAT FREAKING ARTURIA GOT HER ASS DESTROYED BY HIM). On the contrary, Archer killed Kuzuki with just two hits....Even if Kuzuki didn't have the element of surprise this time( or the buff from caster which didn't matter at that point brcuz he didn't managed to land a single hit) should still be considered kind of impressive. So overall, Archer is FAR FROM INCAPABLE at sword wielding even though he doesn't specialize in it. Also he has never actually been stated to be one of the most inexperienced sword wielders....Quiet the opposite actually if you read some of his profiles(from the vn, extra games, wikis etc)
