An Analysis of Two Different (Yet Complementary) Endings: UBW in the VN and the Anime; and What They Mean
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So I recently finished my re-watch of Ufotable’s unjustly maligned 2014-15 adaptation of Fate/stay night’s Unlimited Blade Works route; I thoroughly enjoyed myself, which wasn’t shocking at all—Rin/Shirou is only my favourite fictional relationship (not just romantic, but any kind of relationship). It did however induce to more thoroughly and exhaustively compare the anime original conclusion to the two’s story with the original ending as presented in the VN, if only because I suspect that a careful reading of the nuances of the characterization of both will yield some very fruitful results. It might seem a bit paradoxical at first, but I’ve come to find these two scenes while seen incredibly fondly by most Shirin shippers are in fact quite underappreciated—because there’s just so brilliant and intricate in the subtle ways in which they manage to weave in so much depth and substance into exceedingly simple and seemingly plain plot developments. They are insanely thematically rich, and people often are left far too dazzled and enchanted by the magic of the superficial writing that they miss the genius hidden beneath the surface.
We’ll start off with the comparatively simpler part of the analysis: the original conclusion to Rin and Shirou’s story.
The Ending in the VN
For the purposes of this analysis, I will be skipping all of the epilogue sans the final classroom scene; the reasoning is quite straightforward and should be readily obvious—most of what is of relevance to this analysis is basically confined solely to Rin and Shirou’s final conversation. This disclaimer might appear to be superfluous to some, but I decided to include solely due to my recognizing an asymmetry in the structure that I chose to employ herein—because the section posterior to this one will have to deal with comprehensively picking apart the entirety of episode 25 of the anime. There was a distinct possibility some readers might find the decision somewhat puzzling, so I think it would be no great harm to tell people what precisely they are getting into, though I consider the content itself will be perfectly sufficient in providing people with an understanding of the thought process behind it. So without further ado, let’s finally begin.
The crux of the conversation between Rin and Shirou that caps off UBW is her invitation to him to tag along with her to London as she goes to continue her training in becoming a proper magus—and Shirou’s reaction to her doing so. I will now post all of Shirou’s key internal monologues relating to the matter during his initial contemplation of the matter, omitting all of Rin’s elaborative comment interspersed throughout Shirou’s thoughts for comedic effect, in order to allow us to better understand what precisely the story is trying to communicate here.
She speaks casually, but I'm sure it's an amazing thing. …But London, huh? …That's certainly too far away. My father wasn't in the Magic Association. I'm just like him, and I don't like formal stuff.
[...]
…But I might be able to move there. I can start working more, study English, save up traveling and living expenses, and find a job over there…
[...]
No, no, let's say I am able to rent an apartment there. I don't know what kind of a place the Clock Tower is, but I'm sure Tohsaka will get even busier. …Then it should be better for me to go there after I become a proper magus by myself. Yeah, that sounds good. First of all, London isn't suited for me. I bet I'll faint if I go there and if it's filled with people like Kotomine———
It is at this point that Rin finally notices Shirou has wandered off in his thoughts and thus not paying attention to her—subsequently presenting what amounts to an ultimatum to him. But before we go into that, let us more carefully and studiously parse what we have been presented with here: a dialectic. A dialectic meant to represent Shirou’s inner conflict—an exceedingly minor and trifling conflict, no doubt!—between his ideological aversion and distaste for formal magecraft and the sorts of individuals drawn to it, and his curious desire to nonetheless follow Rin wherever she goes. For literary effect, the text chooses not to immediately explicitly reveal what might be behind this willingness to nonetheless move to London despite his misgiving, but anyone who has been paying even the tiniest bit of attention can easily deduce what might be the cause. Nevertheless, the story firmly establishes a key piece of information going forward—Shirou is not fond of the Mage’s Association. He would certainly not choose to associate himself with them of his own volition.
But now that we have the set-up, we are almost immediately greeted with the pay-off—the previously posted CG of Rin’s brilliant visage in an adorable hunched over position and adorned with a radiant, loving smile, accompanied by the following text: 
"So, what will you do, Shirou?" She asks me gently, with eyes that see through me. "——————" My face turns red. Her words and expression blow away my humility and my dislike of the Magic Association. …This is what I mean by Tohsaka holding my weakness. I can't help it if I fell in love with her.
“Oh, why go silent now? I haven’t heard your answer yet.“
She keeps smiling mischievously. She knows what my answer is, but she's mercilessly attacking me. "Uh… I, um…" To be honest, London is too far away, but I can't imagine myself being taught by anyone other than Tohsaka. And I never even thought about parting with her. Most of all, I want to be with Tohsaka. "Be clear, this is important. Will you still come with me, even if it's as my assistant?" She looks up into my eyes. She looks so attractive that I feel like my heart will pop out of my mouth. "S-Shut up, you idiot…! You idiot, idiot, idiot! I-I-If it's so important, tell me about it in a more appropriate place! I can't answer you when it's so sudden…!!!"
I don’t know what’ll happen to me if I keep staring at her, so I look away. ...I still feel Tohsaka’s presence.
She’s happily watching my reaction.
"Hey, Shirou. What's your answer?" She murmurs gently. ………She's got me beat. Is it this hard to nod and reply honestly? "………" But I can't turn around unless I say it to her.
"……You idiot. Don't ask me such an obvious question." I meet Tohsaka's gaze and tell her my honest opinion. Her smile broadens at those words.
“And I never even thought about parting with her. Most of all, I want to be with Tohsaka.” That’s the key portion here. The internal tug of war between Shirou’s deep-seated hatred for the common amoral magi and the stifling environment of Clock Tower on the one hand, and his unbridled love for and admiration of Rin is decisively and unquestionably resolved in Rin’s favour. It was barely even a contest. Returning to previously discussed dialectic, it is noteworthy how Shirou considers moving to London at a later time than Rin so that he wouldn’t represent a burden for a Rin less likely to be able to spend precious time with him. Hell—the guy already starts making plans about how he’s going to move there without her even inviting him or expressing that she wants him to go with her! He’s so lovestruck that the mere mention of her moving to London has his immediately making preparations so that he can be with her. It’s odd to think that Shirou could possibly find some way to work more than he already does, but that’s not stopping him. Shirou’s internal back and forth weighing his options, contrasting his reservations towards moving to London with his obvious preparedness to go there for Rin’s sake, is presented as barely even really being a proper conflict; the outcome was determined from the very start. There was simply no other way this could have been resolved—Shirou wants to be with his Tohsaka.
But why is this the conclusion to UBW? Why precisely was it so important to finish the route like this, with this particular scenario, with this particular character dynamic? It might seem like this is just the logical conclusion to how the story should be: it’s hardly in-character for Rin, someone who is portrayed as someone who loves magecraft and finds it fun, to not eventually go to Clock Tower, given that one of the themes of the route is her and Shirou’s learning to walk their chosen path out of their own love for it and on their own terms; it also helps reaffirm Shirou’s love for her. But how exactly does this help cap off Shirou’s character arc? How does this serve as a fitting conclusion to his character arc taken in its entirety, including his conflict with Archer? The essential element here is Shirou’s invocation of Kiritsugu, prefacing the rest of his comments elaborating on his opposition to the Association; Shirou’s refusal to move to London is symbolically associated with his ideal. The core question of UBW of course is “Will or will not Shirou become just like Archer?” He is after all walking on the same path, headed to the same direction. What makes him so different? This scene is meant to answer that: his love for Rin. The entire scenario is a microcosm of Rin and Shirou’s relationship, showing why he won’t become Archer: he loves Rin more than he wants to pursue his ideal. Of course Shirou wants to become a superhero—but he wants to be with Rin even more.  Shirou will always treasure the precious time he spends with Rin far more than he does his adventuring. Whatever corner of the world he may be in, whatever conflict is afoot, no matter how faraway he may be—he will always find his way back home, the place where he truly belongs: with Rin. The girl who loves him, and whom he loves back.
And I really cannot think of a more fitting poem to end that scene than...
Tumblr media
The Ending in the Anime
In episode 25 of the 2014 UBW TV anime adaptation by Ufotable, we finally get to see Rin and Shirou’s life together in London.
It makes for incredible fanservice, to say the least.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
He’s giving her a headpat—SHE’S SLEEPING ON HIS SHOULDER!!! Thanks for humouring my pic dump; now, onto the analysis.
Within the confines of the anime, the classroom conversation between Rin and Shirou is quite heavily abridged, positioned very deliberately so that it may be carefully instrumentalized for the specific narrative purposes of the broader narrative of the London epilogue it is situated in. It is in short repurposed. We will have to return to the specifics of that later. For now, let’s begin analyzing how the narrative unfolds.
The epilogue has a three act structure, divided over three in-universe days. The first day acts as the set-up; the second day as the elaboration; and the final day provides us with the conclusion. Now, the first day is mostly fanservice, and this is not without reason: while it lays the foundation for Shirou’s inner conflict that we see unfold over the next two days, it is a mostly laidback story that simply invites us to enjoy Rin and Shirou’s nearly idyllic life in London. It’s a way to frontload almost all of the pure, unadulterated fanservice so as to allow for more narratively relevant elements to be positioned at the very end, which is precision-focused to delivering a fitting conclusion to Emiya Shirou’s arc—which isn’t to say that the latter portions of the story lack fanservice, or that the frontloaded fanservice has no purpose whatsoever; rather, the later fanservice simply has more thematic depth to it. The early fanservice meanwhile serves mostly to establish what Rin and Shirou’s life in London is like; it’s purpose is to establish what is at stake. Many have lamented that Ufotable cut a lot of the elements which were included in Nasu’s original script (most likely rejected due to the Ufotable animation staff’s qualms with having to do another exhausting 45 min episode), but ultimately it was for the better in my estimation; it resulted in far more focus. Instead of wasting time on the total mediocrity of a character that is Luvia, the existing story utilizes her wisely for a specific purpose—to establish just how much Rin has changed over the narrative. I mean, the girl went from freaking out at the suggestion she might be fond of a certain redhead to being so openly enamoured with him that’s she willing to throw down with other girls for flirting with him! The idealized portrayal of Shirou’s new idealized life with the girl he loves is interspersed with discussion of his receiving an invitation to join the Association—and the implications of that. The day ends with Shirou’s mentioning that his heart lies elsewhere; in his pursuit of the ideal.
The next day is fairly laidback as well, but also a bit more... contemplative. Rin and Shirou’s ruminations on the Holy Grail War and what they learned from it during their visit to Glastonbury aren’t exactly directly connected to the central conflict of the narrative, but they nevertheless help portray just how much more mature these characters have gotten, how much they have changed since the events of HGW. It’s important to have Rin portrayed in a much more serious light; after all, the beginning of the episode had her used as comedic relief. Yes, it’s a perfectly fine way to establish just how much Rin truly loves Shirou, but the conclusion to the episode ultimately relies on her being both loving and mature; she’s always been the more intelligent, level-headed and wise of the two, so it stands to reason that it would be quite prudent remind the audience of that as it becomes important once again. Once more, we are treated to a dialectic; the hopelessly in love Rin of the first day meets her antithesis in the wise, contemplative Rin of the second day, ultimately resulting in the synthesis we encounter in the final resolution to the narrative. Having Rin portrayed as being both more mature yet also more fun than Shirou also reinforces just how much more at ease she is at Clock Tower than he is.
Tumblr media
On the ride back home, Shirou has a flashback. And we suddenly find ourselves back in Fuyuki, two years prior.
Tumblr media
Cute.
Anyway, we return to our repurposed classroom scene.
Tumblr media
What exactly is the goal of this scene? Shirou’s monologues, so crucial to the scene in the VN, are wholly excised. We can see Shirou’s blushing like crazy (I can’t blame him...), but we are otherwise left clueless as to his considerations whether or not to follow Rin to London. The thematic relevance of the scene in the VN is gone; no-one, going based solely on the anime, could possibly have realized that this particular scene was meant to be a microcosm of their relationship, showing my Shirou will not become Archer. If anything, it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch to say that the scene is just there to fill in the gaps about what happened in the immediate aftermath of the events of Fifth HGW and act as more Rin/Shirou fanservice. It’s the final episode, so why not just give your audience diabetes ten times over? Just look at it!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
God, I’m really sorry if this many images bothers anyone—but I just can’t help it, it’s too cute and amazing.
But yeah... good fanservice. Doesn’t necessarily mean there’s anything thematically relevant or important to the characterization our heroes receive, right?
Well...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This... is what the episode is all about.
Shirou doesn’t want to betray Rin.
“Thanks for bringing me with you.“ Shirou is profoundly grateful to Rin for giving him this wonderful opportunity to be with her and spend time with her. He is so very happy to be able to cherish his time with the girl that he loves... but he can’t stay at Clock Tower. Rin is the only reason that he is happy there. He feels uncomfortable with the subject of his future there, too afraid to openly and honestly express his feelings to Rin, because he doesn’t want to break her heart. For all that Shirou has matured, he is still just a young man trying to find his place in the world, confused and scared; scared that he might have to abandon the girl he loves so dearly—scared of what she might say. He doesn’t want to spit all over her effort and hard work, all that she has ever done for him; fundamentally, Shirou’s conflict in this episode is about Rin. It’s about his struggling with the difficulties of maintaining the relationship that he has built with her, and his fears that it might not last. His fears that Rin wouldn’t understand what he’s going through, and reject him for it. And that in doing so... his fate will as Archer will be sealed.
But that’s not what happens. When he is finally forced to explain himself to her, he is surprised to hear that she isn’t mad at all. No, she’s wholly supportive of him! Encouraging, even! In fact... she’s the one reassuring him. Earlier in the narrative, Rin was Shirou’s foil as the down to the earth realist to his wide-eyed, idealism. Rin was the one with the self-esteem issues; Shirou was the one who kept charging at the impossible without a doubt in his mind about his chances of success. The confession was all about Shirou’s providing Rin with the necessary support to get back up due to his holding her in a higher regard than she did herself; to Shirou, she was always the amazing, incredible girl who never quits despite all the things weighing on her back. And now, in a beautiful symmetry... it’s her, the girl who didn’t think she had it in her to strive for the impossible, giving encouragement to him, the boy who never did quit, who now has doubts about his future... to never quit. Because she believes in him, just like he believed in her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
People tend to grievously misunderstand what Rin says in this episode—it’s responsible for like 90% of the stupid takes on this episode and the future of the Rin/Shirou pair. She never claims that she will always follow Shirou around; she quite openly states that she eventually wishes to settle down at Clock Tower, because pursuing magecraft is fun, it’s her dream, and it makes her happy. She just doesn’t think that is necessarily incompatible with her being with Shirou. Just like Shirou had made a temporary sacrifice coming to London to spend time with her, so too will Rin now make a slight detour from her path to accomplishing her dream to support the most precious person in her life. It’s why I find it somewhat regrettable that Shirou’s monologues were removed from the classroom scene; it would have been nice to have it be readily apparent within the show itself without recourse to the VN that there’s a symmetry between Shirou’s going to London with Rin and Rin’s going on adventures with Shirou. I understand the omission, given the excellent execution, but it was nonetheless an imperfection solution; perhaps the only one there was. But I can still lament, can’t I?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rin and Shirou’s relationship is going to face a lot of issues. It’s not going to be easy. A clash of wants is inevitable. But Rin is willing to make it work. She is going to make it work. For both of their sakes. The beauty of Rin and Shirou’s relationship is in its striving towards an ideal; it can never be perfect, but it still comes close to being so. Its imperfections make it more than perfect. Theirs is a relationship just like any other—filled with ups and downs. The proof of their love is not in the absence of problems, but in their having the patience, understanding and mutual respect to overcome them, together. Many people when praising the Shirin pair like to adduce its being the most “realistic” of the three VN relationships in its favour. I think such people are doing it a massive disservice by doing so. Shirin is wonderful because it’s a highly idealized version of a normal relationship. Just look at the episode! Their love story is a like a fairy tale! The entire story is about Rin and Shirou, partners in crime; just the two of them against the whole world. Falling love in the midst of a conflict filled with strange mystic mages and legendary heroes from the past. And yet... it feels so down to earth. It feels like something that could occur in your own neighbourhood. What makes me love it so much is this careful but amazing balance between reality and fantasy; it’s just the story of a boy and a girl falling in love... but it feels like a grand epic. Both of them are strange and downright weird people... yet they are also just two regular teenagers, doing regular teenage things. Two regular people, stuck in extraordinary circumstances where they don’t belong... and making the best of it. Together. And nothing exemplifies that more for me that this one final scene at the end of episode 25, perfectly encapsulating why they are so great.
Many people lament the absence of more physical affection between Rin and Shirou, in both the VN and the anime. I sympathize with such people; I myself wish we had gotten many more hugs, kisses and cuddling than we did. And yet... I feel as though in decrying what is not there, they fail to appreciate what was there. Because frankly, few things have made me as emotional as this one handshake.

Harem Poll 2/3 (do-over)
Since I've been doing content for Natsu's harem... I feel I should be equal opportunity here. (人◕ω◕) I'll pick... 3 smaller harems to do a similar infodump kind of thing. A way to get to know the characters better, and how the harems tick. And even better, for the time being I'll focus on harems I haven't brought up too much. ... So no Makoto or Hajime yet... But they get their day in the sun a lot. At least on my blog. XD
I'm gonna run some polls here. We will get to hear about all these lovely girls and how they get along with their man. (人◕ω◕) However, as I am in a generous mood, I will let fans elect who I focus on first. ... This may backfire, but I will attempt a democracy. The gist is, the winner will get a post where I elaborate on the ship, throw in some headcanons, and how they get along with the other members of the harem. All I'm doing is showing love for harems here; if you're a fan and want to support your fav characters, go on and vote. I'll keep polls open... for a week, cuz there's only the two options. If I only did a day, I'd imagine there wouldn't be many participating... So I'll leave the window open for a week. See who bites. (人◕ω◕)
Just speak up if you love a character and want to see them first. (人◕ω◕) I'll be getting to all of them regardless, there are no losers here~...
Author's Note: I messed up in the initial posting, didn't make it go for a week. :P I'm fixing it now. So, if you guys want to take another crack at this, go ahead. Apologies for the screw up. ... And ignore that first choice of a Lenny face. I don't know how that got there. Tumblr glitched up. @___@

The variations of White Knight in other media.
So I had an idea while I was having lunch, which is that I'm going to talk about, in my opinion, some ships from other media that remind me of White Knight. I hope you all like it.

When her boss gets sick at the last minute, photographer Kuchiki Rukia steps in to make sure the project stays on schedule. It's just a photo shoot, and she's a professional. It can't be that hard to take pictures of a bunch of firefighters for a good cause, even if they're posing shirtless.
She didn't really count on one particular firefighter being hotter than the fires he's supposed to put out...

An idea for a post Bladeworks time travel fic.
Tenish years post war Rin, Saber, and Shirou end up in Britain at the height of the round table.
Saber is afraid of being recognized but she's so so much different after 10 years of wedded bliss(also of not having to lead Jack or shit because Rin took charge because Saber and Shirou obviously can't lead shit just look at them) that the only people with a chance in hell of recognizing them are Kay and Merlin. Saber not knowing this leans into playing the part of a young maiden(because she also kind wants to wear the dresses from this time she never got too before) but because of the growth(well non physical growth) she's had over the past 10 years she goes way overboard due to her normal personality having changed and everybody in Camelot goes crazy over this amazing young maiden, the older generation thinking of how much she's like Igraine. People keeps saying it and Morgan gets passed and shows up to prove how she's nothing like her beloved mother and accidentally magically proves Saber is a CHILD OF IGRAINE. Everybody freaks out because this child is way too young to be Igrains child so how the hell...
Meanwhile while Saber is being a reality TV character and loving showing her love for her people without restrictions or responsibility. Shirou and Rin are busy saving Camelot and changing history no matter what bullshit the world throws at them because their giving Saber a happy ending this time damn it! (And if rin can make herself the middle of a Saver sandwich for saving the kingdom that fine too)

Yuma: ಠ_ಠ *thins lips in return* Yeah, no. You're better than me in every way. And I don't even know you. This is all my fault. ಠ_ಠ
Shiro: ಠ_ಠ I'm going to make this up to you and your girlfriend.
Yuma: ಠ_ಠ Not if I make it up to you and your sweetheart first.
Shiro: ಠ_ಠ
Yuma: ಠ_ಠ
Rin: Why are you the one apologizing for me, Shiro?! What the hell?!(╯°□°)╯It's this bitch poking her nose where she doesn't belong!!!
Waruna: Yuma, you gotta stop putting yourself down like that!!! (❋•益•❋) This tsundere is the one who can't or won't accept her true feelings!!!!!
Rin: Excuse me?! I'm not tsundere!!!!! (❋•益•❋)
Waruna: You shitting me?! You look up a definition in the dictionary, and there's a picture of you right next to it, bitch!!!!! (❋•益•❋)
Rin: >///////////////<*** Your boyfriend is a dwarf.
Waruna: >///////////////////<*** And yours is some boyband reject.
Rin: Boyb...?! Shiro would never be that shallow or put himself out like that!!!!!!! I bet your dwarf is looking up all the girls' skirts, though! :P
Waruna: (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑) You sure? How many girls does he got lined up?
Rin: . . . J-Just the two of us. >_____>***
Waruna: (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑) Oh, so you're monogamous? Reallyyy...?
Rin: I-I meant me and my sister, you bullheaded jerk!!! >///////////////<***
Shiro: ಠ_ಠ Rin, I know you don't like the others, but you know there's you, Sakura, Mitsuzuri, Illya, Luvia, Reines, Saber, and... Taiga-sensei. ಠ_ಠ
Rin: . . . D-D-Don't just broadcast your love life like that, you idiot!!!!!! >////////////////<*********
Waruna: (╬≖‿≖) Eight of you, huh. Yuma's much more restrained~
Yuma: ಠ_ಠ Uh. I'm pretty sure counting Shinigami there's eight of you, too, Waruna-chan. You, Yoshiko, Kurane, Kurumi, Pucci, Fubuki, and Guillaume. ... And Shinigami.
Rin: (╬≖‿≖)
Waruna: Ughhh...! Why'd you give her free ammo like that?! (╯°□°)╯
Shiro: I'll leave you guys to hash this out. (✿◠‿◠)* I'm gonna bring some complimentary drinks. On me.
Yuma: (✿◠‿◠)* Nonsense, they'll be on me... *speed-walks to the bar with Shiro*
Rin: Ugh... Why do boys have to be such idiots?! ಠ_ಠ
Waruna: I think it's sweet they're such gentlemen. (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑)
Rin: >______>*** You eyeballing Shiro now, skank?
Waruna: Guys can be gentlemen even if you're not dating them. (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑) You're oddly possessive for someone who's so quiet about their love life.
Rin: (⊙▂⊙✖ ) That's not...! I'm not...!!! >________>*** Just shut up. Shut. Up.
Waruna: I betcha a mil that I can propose to Yuma before you do. (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑)
Rin: What kinda wager is that?! Σ('◉⌓◉’) Shiro would be devastated if he's not the one proposing to us...!
Waruna: Is that your excuse? (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑) Shiro's gotta juggle eight of you, so you're just gonna let him do all the legwork for your marriage? Suuure, that sounds fair and proper. (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑)
Rin: (人◕_◕) . . . . . . . . . Are you calling me a lazy-ass?! (❋•益•❋)
Waruna: Well, I'd never invite you over for dinner. Freeloader. (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑)
Rin: (❋•益•❋) You bitch!!!!! I'll give Shiro the awesomest wedding ever!!! You'll be the dirty, rotten cheapskate eating my dust!!!!! (❋•益•❋)
Waruna: (❋•‿•❋) Good thing I have real friends to depend on~... I'll do a joint proposal with Yoshiko, Kurane, and Kurumi. (❋•‿•❋) That one mil is mine.
Rin: W-Well, I'll...! . . . ;;;>______> **I know Sakura will help me out... Maybe Mitsuzuri.... But if I start talking with any of them about wedding stuff, I know Illyasviel, Luvia, and Reines are gonna conspire against us...! And Taiga-sensei and Saber will just butt in!!! Ugh...**
Makoto: ಠ_ಠ *at the bar with Sayaka, watching Shiro and Yuma try to outdo each other with their orders* ... *opens his mouth*
Sayaka: *clamps his mouth shut with one hand* Makoto, don't you dare take responsibility for their girls' shenanigans. (✿◠‿◠)***
Makoto: ಠ_ಠ But I can help...?
Sayaka: I said no. (✿◠‿◠)***

A new plot bunny enters the fray
MHA/Fate plot bunny
Mineta is replaced by Shirou (already, an improvement).
Shirou's quirk, Round Table, at first appears to be summoning knights of the Fate round table, with Artoria being his first summon. Cue her introducing herself as "ARTHUR, KING OF THE BRITONS". She doesn't know the reference.
Izuku is still very much like canon at the start of the series, and Shirou does not come in at Aldera. Things really start to change at the entrance exam.
Due to a misunderstanding (and maybe a bit of Nezu sadism?) Artoria isn't allowed to join the exam and has to sit this one out. Of course, she expresses her displeasure in a manner befitting her royal standing (she is NOT pouting).
Shirou summons Gawain and Lancelot for the exam, and they promptly start stomping all the robots into the ground. Of course, there is tension between them, but they manage to keep it to jeering and snarking.
Because he needs to be taken down a peg, Bakugo is in the same arena as Shirou. So he has to share his pool of robotic victims with two knights in shining armor (very litterally in Gawain's case), all while Shirou (being much more well adjusted than in the VN/anime) helps people around.
so, the result is Bakugo landing, like, 3rd in the exam, with Shirou somewhere around 8th. He's good, but he's not OP (that's the knights' job).
Due to the increase in costs associated with the Knights being there, the Emiya household needs more funds. Retired underground hero Kiritsugu doesn't have enormous savings, and Irisviel's car racing is not a very regular source of income. It is, however, a regular source of costs. Between her tunning habits and her wreacking cars ... The only one to really bring regular income is ... their third(?) Maiya with her job in private security.
So, Artoria saves the day by ... writing books. On how life was in 5th Century Britain, on the religious and cultural context of the time, and of course transcriptions of plays and treaties lost to time. She makes a pretty penny off of that, and of course gets tear stained letters of gratitude from historians every week.
Her existence does cause a fair bit of a stir in Europe mind you ...

I wanted to try a new Shirou and Rin costume pairing with a working in a night club feel. Although the emphasis is more on Rin. 😂
My MFC post is here:
