What's Archer using for random thunderbolts?

We also see EMIYA Shirou saving Emiya Shirou.
Who else did notice the Japanese yeti Shinji?
Archer mentiones Innate Time Control when faced with Caster's teleportation, which I found very nice, since...
Archer is Shirou and ITC is Kiritsugu's spell.

Another good episode. The consistent quality of the last few episodes has definitely edged Fate/Stay Night ahead of Log Horizon for me this season.
I especially liked that Archer actually thought about Caster's offer, it was a nice contrast to Shirou's instant refusal. The jaded good versus the youngster's idealism.

As Fan_Fic_Reader pointed out over on SB, there are a huge number of paralels to Fate/Zero.
Ufotable Emiya Parralels

You know, it's really convenient that Archer doesn't manage to kill Shirou right then and there. It's really convenient that Assassin is honorable enough not to attack Saber and Shirou when they're in very vulnerable position. Contrast that with Archer letting Caster live, which is perfectly in line with his goals.
Archer notes that he has no idea if his plan will work, just hope, and that he figures killing Shirou himself will probably maximise the chances of a paradox if one is possible.

You're calling Muphrid with that spoiler. The entire thing's blue and brings up his username when you click it.

That's quite cool. I must have stuffed up when quoting Mizu. It's fixed now.

Now it's happening with my own quote. Odd.
Shirou getting lucky and managing to survive I'll grant you, but what Assassin did is completely in line with his goals and not simple honor. Saber dying of something like her Master getting killed would screw him out of his only wish, which is fair fights with worthy opponents. Kojirou doesn't give a shit about anything else, though I believe the why is spoilers still.
Unless you mean actual convenience instead of sarcastically implying deus ex machina like you seem to be doing. In which case it would be considered conveinent that another character has goals that require Shirou to keep living.

Yes, good thing Archer never used any of his one hit kill abilities like that arrow, or used his inhuman strength to cut Shirou in half, or anything.
Just a casual slash to the back, just shallow enough that it didn't cut anything important and could be safely taken care of with mere bandages. I think his sudden and inevitable betrayal wasn't terribly well thought out.

I just realized that the assassin saber fight happens differently than in the VN. In the VN while we don't see the first fight in the second fight it is stated that Assassin could not do the perfet tsubame gaeshi and only did 2 slashes(the horizontal and vertical) allowing saber to dodge. But here he did the perfect move and did all three slashes and she still dodged.

True. I even believe Assassin was only able to do two in the VN due to the higher footing he was on. Been a few years since I've read the VN though, so I could be wrong.

because that's his entire reason for joining the holy grail war.
Yeah. Tsubame Gaeshi needs flat ground for the perfect move I believe. It kinda weakens tsubame gaeshi though since apparently even the 3 version is dodgeable when its not in the VN(saber chips his sword to dodge it).
Most likely. Just like beserker getting hurt from the invisible air slashes and saber killing him with excalibur.
