The Future of Fate/Stay Winter (Update Post)
I said the Fate/Stay Winter schedule was unsustainable...and it really is. Okay, I need some brutal honesty again. I mentioned in this post I'm job hunting - the agency didn't give me much choice, because I only volunteer 15 hours a week and the requirement for the volunteering option is about 10 higher than that...and...

Fate/Stay Winter: People Die When They Are Killed
That's one thing I say in the notes a few times, since Shiro is the origin of the meme (from Deen/Stay Night). Since I cut the previous post into two and squashed it on top of the next one, this has 2 double episodes and 7 episodes total, so it's 9 episodes' worth of Unlimited... Continue Reading →

Fate/Stay Winter: All the Pretty Screenshots
Synopsis It's getting time-consuming to write a synopsis for each episode, considering I fell behind pretty quickly (it is premiere season, after all), so I guess it's one big synopsis this time. Fate/Zero eps. 13 - 16: Essentially, all the Servants (bar Assassin) square off against Caster's huge monster and Saber and Lancer finally get... Continue Reading →
Fate/Stay Winter: Let the Pain Train Continue!
Synopsis Fate/Zero eps 9 - 12: Ep. 9: Half an episode on Lancer/Kayneth, half an episode on Rider/Waver. Turns out Assassin isn't dead yet...and apparently there's 4 of them?
