Hmm... to put this in basic terms: Do we want the significant extra firepower Sakura can bring to the table in the quickly approaching end game, with the caveat that we'll need to keep an eye her. Or, do we want her here, safe and on the road to recovery, but likely unable to participate in what's yet to come. That's what this reads like to me, along with the obvious characterization stuff.

We like, really need all the help we can get.
Results so far, peeps enjoy?
Yep! I didn't have as much fun as Circe did, but she's been waiting for something like this for centuries fir Medea. I can't match that kind of anticipation. But as for what Taiga did, I'm probably about as happy as Raiga.

Given Shirou just said that he wouldn't risk one person to save others...

...this one seems apt. Also, Sakura deserves a break.

Sakura's mental health eh?

Naturally we care about Shirou's Kouhai, Friend and Future!GF

Poor girl already suffers A LOT in canon, even in her route. If we can save from all of that...well, is not really a choice

Also, Taiga being an absolute Badass activated my Neurons. No way something won't be revealed between her and Shirou after we are done fighting Death Battles

And besides, EMIYA is an average Servant whenever he fights those he isn't familiar with.

EMIYA is a literal swiss knight that more often than not is overwhelmed by the sheer specialization of most warrior-type Servants.
 
Medea's hand grabs you by the chin and turns your head to face her again. "Shirou, do you love me?"

"Yes." You answer without a moment's hesitation.

Medea pauses at that, her movements stopping. Then she smiles, it's a small smile. It's a faint blush to her cheeks, a genuine joy that seemed to radiate out from her.
Cuuuuute. Caster has been un-jaded into an energetic young lass, her young boyfriend can barely keep up. And Circe is right, she should be honest. She's been looking to bounce on it for so long, it's about finally getting an opportunity not taking a preemptive one. But also Circe
when Circe joined in a moment later, bodily throwing Medea into the pool so she could claim her stake.
Rude. May have been needed in order to tap-in, but still.

Overall, fun chapter. Didn't expect this direction with Taiga vs Raiga. Big sister finally utilizing some aspects of having a servant. Wonder what Shirou would think about this whole situation with him the one being argued about.

Also, those choices, worrying. I think I'm going to fight the urge to pick the option that includes her more in the plot and prioritize what'll be most likely to keep her alive. Not having her + archer will be difficult, but a Sakura like Shirou sounds TOO self-destructive. Plus she's in the story for the long haul at this point.

Cause let's be honest, with how much of a clusterfuck this war is, she's not safe staying in the castle either. Better to stay with the rest of the group.
