"I am the bone of my sword.
Steel is my body, and fire is my blood.
I have created over a thousand blades.
Unaware of loss.
Nor aware of gain.
Withstood pain to create weapons, waiting for one's arrival.
I have no regrets, this is the only path.
My whole life was Unlimited Blade Works."

Did they completely toss this out the window?

Do you believe it is better to strive on without any regrets, blazing toward your hopes and dreams with self-confidence, or should you constantly evaluate every step in your life?

I think DEEN decided that the voice actors could not speak English for shit so they tossed out 90% of the incantation.

I live by logical, calculated decisions. I SUPPOSE THAT'S WHY I'M A NEET.

But this was supposed to be in Japanese in the first place, AND they did an English version anyways in the fighting game already.

First one, I do the second.

Didn't it flash on the screen, just the writings though? It was pretty much pointless anyway, there was so little buildup on the similarities and differences between Archer and Shirou that it doesn't make any difference.
The whole theme got thrown out of the window in favor of shiny sword-kamehamehas.

>Do you believe it is better to strive on without any regrets, blazing toward your hopes and dreams with self-confidence, or should you constantly evaluate every step in your life?
The former, however, realizing it doesn't make it any easier to actually do it.

I don't remember it. If you mean during the Archer/Shirou fight, what flashed was, at least in the subs, the literal translation of Archer's UBW. Something along the lines of:

His body is made out of swords.
His blood is of iron and his heart of glass.
He survived through countless battles.
Not even once retreating,
Not even once being understood.
He was always alone.
Intoxicated with victory in a hill of swords.
Thus, his life has no meaning.
That body was, certainly made out of swords.

I still don't see what the deal with that ending is. Plenty of characters did the whole "I must kill my loved one" better than Shirou in that snippet.

>> No.6231847

>>6231841
You people are aware that he accepted that he culdn't save everyone and took the fastest and most direct method of getting things done in that ending, right?
Also, Kiritsugu's ideal is not the same as Shirou's. They may have had the same dream, but otherwise Shirou stepped it up.

...But that -is- Archer's chant for it, in the original Japanese.

Your body will never be made of swords ;_; sadfrog.jpg

Yes, it was shown twice.

I was talking about Shirou's chant being missing.

personally i just like the name of it.

So sick of you Shrarcher faggots. Don't you realize you can solve all of FSN without that piece of shit theory? Yes, including UBW.

Did you actually believe Archer when he said that crap? You know what a troll he is, right?
