Fate/Zero 2nd Season

Слуги сражаются с регенерирующим демоном у реки Мион, пока хозяева строят козни, а прохожие наблюдают.

Saber, Lancer and Rider struggle to prevent the demon summoned by Caster from reaching the shore, as it regenerates at an astounding pace, making it difficult to destroy. Kirei Kotomine and Risei Kotomine discuss plans to cover up the incident. As Archer and Tokiomi Tohsaka watch the battle aboard Archer's aircraft named Vimana, Tokiomi pleads with Archer to assist in destroying Caster, but Archer refuses after "sacrificing" four of his weapons to damage the beast. A pair of Mitsubishi F-15J Jets are caught in the battle while patrolling the area. One of them is consumed by Caster's demon, while the other is hijacked by Berserker, who engages in aerial combat with Archer. A crowd of bystanders begins to gather along the riverbank to witness the battle. Kariya Matou confronts Tokiomi over his treatment of Sakura, and is enraged when Tokiomi simply dismisses him by saying he wanted both of his daughters to become mages, instead of being a part of the "common masses". Ryūnosuke Uryū, watching from the riverbank, is sniped by Kiritsugu Emiya and dies. Caster senses the death of his Master and vows to fulfill the promise he made to him. Kiritsugu deduces that Caster's demon is an immortal being that will regenerate itself if even a small piece of it is left, and that Saber is the only Servant with a Noble Phantasm strong enough to destroy it.

Saber и Rider отступают от демона Кастера, пока Кирицугу координирует стратегию по его уничтожению.

As Archer and Berserker continue to battle in the sky, Saber and Rider are forced to retreat from Caster's demon to rethink their strategy. Rider proposes transporting the demon inside of Ionian Hetairoi, where his armies will hold it off as long as they can while Saber and Lancer find a way to finally destroy it. Kiritsugu calls and explains to Waver how they will defeat the demon and tells him to inform Lancer about Saber's Noble Phantasm. Lancer realizes what Kiritsugu means and destroys his Gae Buidhe to allow Saber's wound to heal and fully use her Noble Phantasm. Tokiomi defeats Kariya by burning him with a blast of fire. He falls from the building, and is later found by Kirei, who is on the verge of killing him but decides to heal him instead. Berserker destroys Archer's Vimana, but is drawn by the unveiling of Saber's sword and begins attacking her instead. Lancer and Archer attack him and destroy his jet. With the coast clear, Kiritsugu fires a flare gun to signal to Waver where Rider should transport the demon. With the demon in position, Saber uses her Noble Phantasm Excalibur to finally destroy Caster and the demon while the former has a vision of Jeanne before his death. With the threat over, Rider and Archer discuss whether Saber's life as king was incredible or tragic before both leave, with Rider hoping to duel Archer in the future and Archer now smitten with Saber.

Кейнет убивает Райси, Майя захватывает Сола-Уи, а Лансер умирает после сделки с Киритсугой по кэсу.

Kayneth visits Risei and asks for his reward for Lancer's role in defeating Caster. Risei agrees to reward Kayneth with a Command Seal, but after receiving it, Kayneth immediately shoots and kills him to ensure that no other Masters can get one. During the battle at the Mion River, Maiya finds Sola-Ui and cuts off the arm bearing her Command Seals, then kidnaps her. Kayneth scolds Lancer for not protecting Sola-Ui and mocks him. Saber and Iri, tipped off by Kiritsugu, arrive at Kayneth's hideout, where Saber and Lancer decide the time is right to finish their duel. Kiritsugu confronts Kayneth and, holding Sola-Ui at gunpoint, gives Kayneth a contract of geas that will prevent Kiritsugu from killing him and Sola-Ui if he uses his last Command Seal to force Lancer to commit suicide. Desperate, Kayneth agrees to the deal, causing Lancer to curse everyone around him, especially Saber, before he dies, impaled on his own lance. But the contract only binds Kiritsugu from harming them personally, and immediately after Maiya shoots Kayneth and Sola-Ui. As Saber ends Kayneth's suffering, she confronts Kiritsugu for the terrible and dishonorable things he would do to win the grail. Kiritsugu counters that there is nothing honorable about chivalry, as all war is hell, and he will do anything, including great evil, to realize his wish to save the world. As Kiritsugu leaves with Maiya, Iri collapses from exhaustion. (Source: Wikipedia)

Токоми предлагает союз, а Кирей убивает своего отца, чтобы обеспечить новый контракт.

After Tokiomi hears from Kirei about Risei's unexpected death, he proposes forming a new strategy. Archer believes that Kirei is furious upon missing his chance to be the one to murder his own father. Irisviel and Saber, being informed by Maiya, head to the church to discuss with Tokiomi his proposal to form an alliance. Tokiomi visits his daughter Rin, giving her a magecraft book and some wisdom before going to the church. During the meeting, Tokiomi suggests a temporary alliance to defeat the other Masters first. Irisviel agrees only to a temporary truce, provided that Tokiomi complies to having Kirei leave the country and be no longer involved in the war. As they depart, Irisviel reveals to Maiya that she is the embodiment of the Holy Grail in human form and will soon die to create the Grail near the end of the war. Maiya promises to protect her until that time comes. Meanwhile, Kirei reveals to Archer that his father's dying act was to leave Kirei the remaining Command Seals, restoring Kirei's ability to contract with a Servant. The secret reason behind the war is that the Holy Grail can be activated only if all seven Servants are sacrificed. Tokiomi has been reluctant to use his Command Seals, as he needs at least one to force Archer to commit suicide. Furthermore, Kirei still wants to explore his dark desires, and Archer yearns for a more stimulating Master. Later, Kirei meets with Tokiomi, who entrusts him with the guardianship of Rin should anything happen to him and an Azoth dagger as a symbol of his completed apprenticeship. Kirei stabs Tokiomi in the back with the dagger, saying even his own father and master never really understood him. With Tokiomi dead, Kirei and Archer form a new contract as Master and Servant.

Детство Киритсугу на острове Алиманго с отцом Норитакой и Ширли

When Kiritsugu was a child, he lived on Alimango Island in the Philippines with his father Noritaka Emiya and his father's assistant, a local girl named Shirley whom Kiritsugu was smitten with. Noritaka conducted research on immortality using plants, which had Shirley convinced that this would one day change the world, as she hoped that Kiritsugu would follow in his father's footsteps. Before leaving one morning, Noritaka tells Kiritsugu to stay in the house, after the former believes that someone went into his lab the previous night. However, Kiritsugu went out to search for Shirley instead, only to find her at her house in a frenzy, devouring live chickens. Shirley revealed that she went into the lab and used the immortality formula on herself so that people could appreciate Noritaka, which turned her into a Dead Apostle, a vampire caused by magecraft. Shirley asked Kiritsugu to kill her before she could infect others, but unable to do it, he instead fled to alert the Church, allowing her to infect the entire village. As chaos spread across the island, the Church Executors and the Mage's Association Enforcers arrived to stop the outbreak and cover up the incident. Kiritsugu was saved by a mercenary named Natalia Kaminski, whose mission was to eliminate the mage responsible for the outbreak. Kiritsugu confronted Noritaka over his work and its consequences, but the latter simply shrugged them off as an accident and planned to continue his experiments elsewhere, leading Kiritsugu to kill his own father as a result. Emotionally broken and with nowhere to go, Kiritsugu agreed to escape with Natalia, his ideologies having taken shape. (Source: Wikipedia)

Киритсугу и Наталия выполняют задание против мертвого апостола, пролетая над Нью-Йорком.

After leaving the island, Kiritsugu began living with Natalia, who trained him to become a mercenary like her and travel around the world as a hired gun. Due to his unique magic, Natalia removes several of Kiritsugu's ribs and uses them to create sixty-six magic bullets that have a devastating effect against magi. Natalia and Kiritsugu are assigned to kill Odd Dvorak, a Dead Apostle mage who controls bee familiars that turn their victims into Ghouls. While Natalia boards the plane that Dvorak is taking from Paris, Kiritsugu heads to his destination of New York to kill the mage's associate there. Both Natalia and Kiritsugu successfully eliminate their targets. However, Dvorak was concealing bees in his body which turn all the passengers and crew into ghouls. Natalia manages to get into the cockpit safely, but with the plane filled with ghouls, she asks Kiritsugu to do something for her. He surprises Natalia by saying he already has something planned. As her plane draws closer to New York, Natalia and Kiritsugu talk via radio, reminiscing about the time they spent together and the bond they shared. When her plane is in view, Kiritsugu does what he believes will save more people: to prevent a Ghoul infestation, he blows up the plane with a Stinger, killing all the Ghouls on board and Natalia along with them. Before he pulls the trigger, he tells her he was glad to have her as his mother. As the plane explodes, Natalia is seen smiling. Kiritsugu collapses in grief over losing another loved one.

Киритсугу убивает Токиоми, пока Райдер похищает Ирисвиль, а Сэйбер преследует

Back in the present day, Kiritsugu visits an ailing Irisviel in the storehouse. She gives her husband the scabbard Avalon and asks him to bring their daughter Illya to see Japan once the War is over. Learning from Maiya that Saber has gone to battle Rider, Kiritsugu assigns Maiya to protect his wife while he goes to assassinate Tokiomi. Meanwhile, Waver heads to the forest where he summoned Rider in order to replenish his mana before Rider's intended fight with Saber, whom he wishes to battle to set her straight on what it means to be a king. Kariya has a nightmare in which Berserker speaks to him before awakening chained in the cellar of the Matou house. To heal Kariya, Zouken Matou forces him to swallow the crest worm that first tasted Sakura's purity. Irisviel talks with Maiya about the latter's past as a child soldier and implores her to live her own life after the war. She then tells Maiya of her wish that this war will be the last so that Illya can live a normal life. At the same time, Kiritsugu arrives at the Tohsaka mansion, only to discover that Tokiomi is dead. In the interval, Rider attacks Irisviel and Maiya. Kiritsugu uses a Command Seal to order Saber to return to the storehouse, where she finds Maiya injured and Irisviel abducted by Rider, prompting her to give chase on her motorcycle. On reaching the storehouse, Kiritsugu finds the dying Maiya and comforts her in her last moments through his own tears. (Source: Wikipedia)

Saber вступает в бой с Rider, пока Кирицугу раскрывает правду похищения Ири

As Saber chases Rider through the city on her motorcycle, Kiritsugu investigates and concludes that Rider was not responsible for attacking Iri and Maiya. Saber catches up to the real Rider and Waver, and the two Servants duel, resulting in the destruction of Rider's chariot. Meanwhile, concluding that the Matous were behind his wife's kidnapping, Kiritsugu tortures Kariya's brother Byakuya, who reveals that Kariya was working with Kirei. Kirei made a deal with Kariya to kidnap Iri using Berserker's Noble Phantasm, which allows him to disguise himself as another hero (in this case Rider), in return for the restoration the two Command Seals this consumed and the promise of a duel with Tokiomi at the church. When Kariya leaves, Kirei orders Zouken, who has been hiding and watching them, to show himself. Zouken remarks that he and Kirei are the same in their enjoyment of watching Kariya suffer, before he is driven away by Kirei. Kariya arrives at the church to duel Tokiomi only to find his corpse. Aoi arrives at the church soon after, and on seeing the two of them believes that Kariya is her husband's killer. As Aoi weeps for Tokiomi, she angrily asks Kariya if he is happy now. A confused Kariya attempts to explain the situation and places blame on Tokiomi for his treatment of her and Sakura, but Aoi reprimands him, stating that he doesn't understand her and that he's never loved anyone. Kariya snaps and strangles Aoi. By the time he comes to his senses, he has killed her. As Kariya stumbles out of the church in despair, Archer and Kirei are shown to have been watching from the balcony, enjoying the tragedy as it unfolded. (Source: Wikipedia)

Уэйвер и Райдер сталкиваются с Арчером, пока Кирей убивает Ирисвиль и устраивает ловушку для оставшихся Мастеров.

Waver returns home to the Mackenzie household, and is greeted by Glen Mackenzie, who Waver put under a spell, along with Martha Mackenzie, to make them believe he was their grandson. However, Glen notes that he and Martha are aware that Waver is not related to them, but still enjoyed his and Rider's company. In Caster's lair, Irisviel is interrogated by Kirei, who believes he is like Kiritsugu, but Irisviel states that an empty man like Kirei has nothing in common with Kiritsugu, who is fighting for the Grail to wish for eternal world peace. Disappointed, Kirei snaps Irisviel's neck, killing her, and vows to destroy Kiritsugu's dream. Later that night, Waver and Rider see magical flares sent up near the theater, meant to lure them into a duel with Archer. As Rider summons his horse Bucephalus, Waver decides to use all of his Command Seals to give Rider the power he needs to win and conquer the world, as he feels he is no longer worthy of being his Master. Instead, Rider tells Waver he considers him a friend and wants him to ride with him into battle. Kiritsugu and Saber see the flares as well, aware they are a trap meant to gather the remaining Masters and Servants in the same area. Having sent out the flares, Kirei prepares for his fight with Kiritsugu, sending Berserker to deal with Saber and Archer to face off with Rider. Meanwhile, Irisviel's soul makes contact with the spirit within the Grail, Angra Mainyu before disappearing. (Source: Wikipedia)

Кирисугу встречается с Киреем, Сэйбер сражается с Ланселотом, а Райдер дуэлирует с Арчером

As Kiritsugu and Saber arrive at the theater on separate paths, Saber is attacked by a gun-wielding Berserker in the underground parking lot. Meanwhile, Rider and Waver encounter Archer on the bridge. As they share a final toast before their duel, Rider asks Archer to join forces with him and conquer the world and beyond, but Archer politely declines. Saber manages to destroy Berserker's gun, but is startled to find he knows the exact length of her sword. She ask for his true identity, and Berserker removes his mask to reveal Sir Lancelot, one of Saber's most trusted knights, gravely shocking her. At the same time, a dying Kariya begins hallucinating due to his guilt over Aoi. Rider summons Ionian Hetairoi and he and his army charge at Archer. Archer pulls out his sword Ea and uses his Noble Phantasm Enuma Elish to destroy Rider's army and Ionian Hetairoi, sending them back into real world. Rider asks Waver if he would like to become his retainer, to which he agrees. Rider pulls out Waver from his horse and orders him to live on and pass down the tale of his final battle. Rider charges at Archer and is slain by Ea, but not before Archer tells Rider that he respects him as his equal. In admiration of his loyalty to Rider, Archer spares Waver's life and departs, leaving Waver mourning. Kiritsugu finally reaches Kirei, who has laid out his wife's body on the theater's stage.

Киритсугу отвергает предложение Грэйла о глобальном геноциде

As Kiritsugu and Kirei engage in an intense duel, Saber shares a last conversation with Berserker before he dies by her hand. As Kiritsugu and Kirei both prepare to deliver the finishing blow to the other, a black ooze pouring from the Grail crashes through the ceiling and covers them. Kiritsugu finds himself in an illusory world where Angra Mainyu, taking the form of Irisviel, tells him he is worthy of using it to make a wish, making Kiritsugu the winner of the war. However, Kiritsugu is shocked to find that the Grail has been corrupted, and watches it deconstruct his belief in killing the few for the sake of the many and being told no one can "save the world" and end conflict without killing off all of humanity. Angra Mainyu attempts to convince Kiritsugu to make his wish by assuming the forms of both Irisviel and Illya and promising he will be together with them again at the cost of everyone else. However, Kiritsugu rejects the Grail, declaring he will not sacrifice the rest of humanity for the sake of his personal happiness, and realizing that the Grail has been corrupted and now seeks only to turn victors' wishes into global genocide. For this, he is cursed by Angra Mainyu, shortening his lifespan. Back outside, Kirei scolds Kiritsugu for refusing the Grail and wasting the wish. Kirei pleads with Kiritsugu to give the wish to him so that he may find the meaning of his existence, but Kiritsugu shoots him. Saber soon arrives at the Grail's stage and encounters Archer, who demands that she surrender and devote herself to him as his wife. Kiritsugu appears in the middle of their exchange and, to the horror of both Servants, uses his two remaining Command Seals to force Saber to destroy the Holy Grail with Excalibur.

Киритсугу берёт Сирою на воспитание, пока Кирей и Сэйбер размышляют о трагических последствиях Грааля.

The theater is demolished after Saber destroys the Grail, but Kiritsugu is shocked to see the Grail's black ooze pour down from the sky and flood the city, destroying everything it touches and engulfing Archer. Kariya is seen leaving his basement to finally reunite Sakura with Rin, but in reality, he collapses down the stairs and is consumed by the crest worms below, leading Sakura to accept her fate. Kirei awakens to see that the Grail has resurrected him and granted Archer a mortal body. Seeing that his wish of destruction and tragedy has come true, Kirei laughs hysterically at his own lack of humanity, but he seeks to fully understand his desire, and Archer agrees to follow him. In the aftermath of the destruction of the Grail, Kirei briefly notices Kiritsugu desperately searching for survivors in the burning rubble, and becoming overjoyed to find a young boy named Shirou still alive. The next day, Waver asks Glen and Martha to let him stay with them a while longer as he earns money to travel around the world and find his own path. After presiding over Tokiomi's funeral, Kirei meets Rin and her mother Aoi, who has survived but suffered severe brain damage and does not comprehend that her husband is dead and Sakura is gone. Kirei gives Rin the Azoth dagger and relishes in her grief. Saber, having become a Heroic Spirit again, relives her final moments on the battlefield during her life and remembers Lancelot's final words to her as he expressed his regret over having betrayed her and falling in love with Guinevere. Saber grieves that she does not understand anyone and weeps for having seemingly failed as a king, promising to win the Holy Grail in the next war for their sake. A voiceover by Kiritsugu reveals that he attempted to return to the Einzberns many times, but Jubstacheit von Einzbern, the head of the family, refused to open the forest's barrier since Kiritsugu did not return with the Grail, and thus he never saw Illya again. Instead, he decides to live in Fuyuki City and adopt Shirou. Five years later, Kiritsugu tells Shirou one summer night how he once wished to be a hero. Shirou promises his father that he will fulfill that dream for him, and Kiritsugu, due to the Grail's influence, quietly passes away, reminiscing about the time when Shirley asked him what he wanted to grow up to be and concluding that he still wants to be a hero.
