So I finally got to watch the Prologue today. Yay for calling in from work due to ILLNESS.
Owwwww, hope you get better soon.
Anyway, if anyone cares, my random thoughts:
Wow, the Stately Tohsaka Manor isn't very stately anymore and is starting to look like parts of South America.
I actually like the Manor's design here, though then I'm a fan of old mansions like this surrounded by nature. Probably doesn't make a ton of sense in context, though it's possibly justified by the mansion getting overgrown over the years.
WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE KITTY PAJAMAS?!
I actually wondered this too. I want a pair of those, they look so comfy. :< Not that I don't already have kitty pajama bottoms anyway, it's just I could do with more.
Oh, now I remember why I ship Rin/Archer so hard now. They're fighting like a married couple.
It is adorable, no?
Archer you are tsundere as well and a curmudgeon. That's okay, that's part of the reason that I love you.
A curmudgeonly curmudgeon.
He's so moe and butlery in this, it's great.
Where's the talk about Reality Marbles?
I think they cut it for time and to streamline things. It should hopefully come up again later in the adaptation. Hopefully.
A Wild Celt appears!
Wild LANCER used AGILITY! RIN dodged the attack!
Lancer smack talk! He calls Archer "old man". Which makes me wonder how young Lancer is suppose to be and how old Archer physically is as a Servant. I mean, since Servants are summoned at their peak, wouldn't Archer be the same age as when he formed the contract?
Lancer I think is my age physically, so Archer's probably a bit older than that at least. Probably late 20's, early 30's.
Archer's being super aggressive during this fight. And holy shit does it look amazing. I wonder if part of the Archer/Lancer rivalry is because Archer still holds a grudge from when Lancer heart-shived him as a kid.
Probably. I imagine heart-shivving is not the easiest thing to forgive.
Oh cool, there's the snake skin with the pendent.
Does it explain why she didn't use it?
It's because the skin is half shredded, rendering it useless.
