Run, Cu-chan!
In any case, Shinji racked his brains trying to find the right actress, and almost went so far as to have Yan Qing dressed up as a beautiful woman so that Shirou could sexually assault her on camera.
Fortunately, Little Yi Ge remained loyal and unyielding, refusing to comply even at the cost of his life, repeatedly stating, "Unless you use two Command Spell, Master, I will never do it, even if it means my death."
Finally, the Second Master calculated that exchanging two Command Spell for one bonus scene was indeed not worthwhile, so he gave up.
Of course, this is also related to Shinji finding a suitable candidate from among the actresses who were willing to take their clothes off; otherwise, he might have really had to make do with Little Yi Ge.
As for Enkidu, another Heroic Spirit who could dress up, Shinji never even considered it.
Bullying Yan Qing, who is all alone, is a completely different matter from bullying Enkidu and Gilgamesh, the two brilliant duo.
Although this actress, discovered by Shinji, is not quite as beautiful as the three main heroines of Fate, she is definitely a beauty, and more importantly, she has a really good figure.
How to describe her curvaceous figure...? Probably not inferior to Saigyou Zanpakuto, not inferior to Lancer Artoria, and even if Minamoto no Raikō's mother came, she probably wouldn't be much better than her.
Compared to Rin's slender figure, which would definitely starve a child to the point of being skin and bones, the difference is like night and day.
Of course, although the Second Master changed the plot, he did not spare his childhood sweetheart with whom he had a love-hate relationship and his beloved younger sister.
In the final seconds of this erotic dream, Shinji still managed to bring Rin and Sakura into the frame.
To paraphrase Shinji, although the woman aroused Shirou Emiya's physical desires, he ultimately faced his emotions. Thus, the woman's face in his dream jumped from a stranger to the person he admired (Rin), and then to the person he liked (Sakura).
Because the scene only showed their faces for a few seconds, with their bodies below the neck not appearing on screen, Rin and Sakura reluctantly agreed.
However, despite agreeing, Rin and Sakura were still quite dissatisfied with Shinji's decision.
"Is that all you have on your head?! Shinji, you might as well just die!"
Rin complained.
Don't think Rin doesn't know what Shinji is implying; physical matters are a required course for Magecraft.
Shinji was mentally prepared to be given a Baji Quan by Rin. After all, he had been a punching bag before, and he could use a body -Reinforcement Magecraft the moment he was hit so that not even a bruise would be left.
After all, these days you always have to pay a price to get something; even Magical Girl don't gain power for no reason anymore.
You agree, right, QB?
To Shinji's surprise, Rin's fist didn't land, and he escaped unharmed.
However, Shinji now understands why Rin would let him go.
"I was so stupid, really."
Shinji lowered his head and muttered to himself.
He was kneeling on the floor of his house, with several thick books on his knees.
"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have stayed home watching DVDs. Was this all part of your plan... Tohsaka Rin?!"
Sakura, sitting on the sofa, glared at him and said coldly, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
There's nothing there!
Sakura's eyes were fixed on the TV, and she sneered, "Tohsaka. Even if I'm the female lead, I still have no presence? Or do you think Tohsaka- senpai is better, brother?"
Shinji retorted instinctively, "Her ass! She's got nothing but legs, unlike you who's so chubby."
Sakura's expression instantly turned cold. "Emiya- senpai, aren't you going to give it your all?!"
"Yes, sir."
At this moment, Shirou strong survival instinct, showed his sycophantic side, continuing to stack books on Shinji's lap.
"I'm sorry, Shinji."
Shirou's act of apologizing while simultaneously taking action made Shinji roll his eyes.
If you know you're sorry, then please don't take out the heaviest books from my house!
Of course, Shinji knew it was still his own fault. If Sakura hadn't suddenly become gentle these past two days, he wouldn't have fallen into this simple trap.
Looking back now, I realize that I softened myself with a gentle approach a week in advance, all because Sakura was just too terrifying to punish me today.
Compared to his miserable self, Shirou was much luckier. All he had to do was move books, and he even got to linger with the beautiful woman in the video.
"Tsk, I'm so jealous."
Shinji glared at Shirou and said.
Shirou retorted, "I'm actually jealous of you. I don't have your luck with women."
Shinji gritted his teeth and said, "What good is luck if Sakura is watching me and I can't do anything? If it weren't for Sakura, I would have already had several Mordred with Artoria."
"..."
Artoria glanced down at the Curry Stick in her hand, which was enveloped by the Gales Domain, and said nothing.
"Shinji, stop bragging and show some of the courage you had at the Clock Tower," Shirou said coldly.
"Your sister is like a ghost, always appearing as a third wheel whenever you're trying to pick up girls. No matter how good you are at flirting, you can't resist her!"
"..."
Sakura, who overheard their conversation, looked at her fist, lost in thought.
However, Shinji had forgotten about the people around him and blurted out, "Seriously, if Sakura wasn't watching, the Heroic Spirit would be easy to deal with. Servants like Medusa, who have Doberman-like traits, just need a little pampering."
Although Shinji was referring to the original design of Type-Moon, the way he said it sounded off, naturally causing dissatisfaction among the designers.
"..."
Several veins seemed to throb on Medusa's forehead, and she gripped the chains tightly.
"Ahem, we've run out of books, I'll go get some new ones."
The usually simple-minded Shirou displayed a rare survival instinct at this moment. Despite the oppressive gazes of the three women, he rushed out of the room.
At this point, Shinji realized he had talked too much nonsense.
He wanted to escape with Shirou, but the book on his knees forced him to stay put.
"Brother, do you have any last words?"
Sakura gently stroked Shinji's hair and said with a bright smile.
"... Please be gentle, I'm afraid of pain."
"I will grant your request, Master."
Artoria nodded and raised her hands.
◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆ (Separation line for excessively gory scenes omitted) ◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆
While Shinji was suffering and unhappy, the first viewers to watch the second episode of HF were still reminiscing about the already concluded beginning.
The male audience members at the Magecraft's Club were in a very conflicted state of mind. On the one hand, they hoped for more of these kinds of shots to get more "fan service"; on the other hand, they also hoped for fewer of them to avoid being disliked by the girls around them.
Regardless, the opening of the second episode whetted the audience's appetite and gave them plenty of anticipation for the upcoming plot.
However, these viewers were unaware that the opening scene was already the most erotic and explicit scene in the entire episode.
Although there are more stimulating nude scenes later, those are scenes of the Grandpa Bug plundering flesh.
The first physiological reaction viewers will experience is a surge of adrenaline, not hormones.
If any viewer actually manages to use that scene to upgrade their XP system, Second Master promise I'll give it a thumbs up and then call 110 (the police emergency number).
Chapter 151 Run, Wang Jiang!
"How many Servant do you think will die in this episode?"
Although the beginning of HF was mouthwatering, the boys felt that it wasn't right to just keep swallowing their saliva and not saying anything.
If I just stand there and stare without saying a word, the girls around me will definitely categorize me as a pervert or a creep.
To avoid getting embarrassed and to cover up the awkwardness of seeing suggestive scenes, the boys started discussing the topic.
"In the last episode, Kojirou and Medea died, but Hassan was added, so there should be exactly one less."
Shibamatsu counted on his fingers and said, "The Heaven's Feel version has a total of 6 episodes. Following the tradition of leaving only Saber to destroy the Holy Grail in the end, including the newly added Hassan, a total of 8 Heroic Spirit will die."
"Eight?"
Shibamatsu retorted, "Originally there were seven, plus Hassan and Gilgamesh. My math wasn't taught by a Mandarin teacher, thank you."
"Rider and the two from Ryuudou Temple have already died, leaving five. On average, it should be one death per episode from now on."
The other person didn't seem embarrassed at all, and even took the opportunity to show off their elementary school math skills.
"So who do you think is next?"
"Who else? Let's start with the characters who have little screen time and aren't important to the plot. I think it's probably that Big Dog."
(Achoo! Cú Chulainn sneezed, far away in Fuyuki City.)
Shibamatsu asked curiously, "Hey, isn't that Doggy pretty resilient? Whether it's UBW or the movie version, he survives until quite late in the story... even though his screen time is indeed limited."
(Achoo! Cú Chulainn sneezed a second time.)
"Think about it, the main characters of this movie certainly won't be reduced to fewer members so quickly. And Matou Family and the Ryuudou Temple group have already left, that leaves only Illya and the Blue Doggy."
"Unless that Golden Gil comes to cause trouble again, they'll definitely start with the simpler ones. So if it's not Doggy who dies, who will?"
(Achoo! Cú Chulainn completed a triple sneeze.)
After listening, Shibamatsu nodded thoughtfully. "So, the next one to die should be Lancer?"
"Most likely," the other person said smugly. "After that, it should be Heracles, Heroic Spirit, and this Hassan Emiya. Gilgamesh will undoubtedly be the final boss again. I've already figured out Shinji Matou's tactics."
"Really?"
Shibamatsu was deeply skeptical of this. Last time they watched UBW, they thought they could guess the plot developments, but in reality, Shinji Matou's plot developments always exceeded their expectations.
But if you're saying that Shinji Matou deliberately creates unpredictable plot twists to keep everyone guessing, then this Director always cleverly embeds the underlying storylines within earlier plot developments.
"I don't think it'll be that simple..."
Shibamatsu's hesitation failed to sway the other party's confidence. "Just you wait and see, I'm sure I can guess right."
Unfortunately, the plot didn't unfold as quickly as everyone expected.
The first half hour of the second episode consists of various expositional scenes and romantic subplots between Shirou and Sakura.
The dialogue scenes essentially establish that the main characters are aware of what happened at Ryuudou Temple and have developed their next battle plan.
However, this part that seriously follows the plot is less than 10 minutes long, and most of the dialogue scenes are still focused on Shirou and Sakura's love talk.
Shinji to include so many romantic scenes between Sakura and Shirou was deliberate.
Most viewers watched UBW before watching HF, so they are well aware of the importance of the ideal of "becoming Hero of Justice" in Shirou Emiya's mind, and it is no exaggeration to call it his spiritual pillar.
The most compelling aspect of the character [Shirou Emiya] in the Heaven's Feel route is that he abandoned his ideals and chose the person he loved.
Regardless of whether the audience likes this change, from a script perspective alone, Shirou Emiya's change is very important to the overall direction of the story.
Because it is important, this transformation must be logical and reasonable; otherwise, the entire story will collapse due to the illogicality of this transformation.
For viewers to believe that Shirou Emiya's decision to "give up his ideals and choose Sakura" is believable, they need to understand just how important Sakura is to Shirou Emiya.
Sakura and Shirou's repeated conversations, and their repeated expressions of affection for each other, all motivated Shirou Emiya's change of heart.
Of course, Shinji is certain that some impatient viewers will fast-forward through this dialogue section and go straight to the action sequences.
These people will likely also say things like "the character is out of character" or "Shinji Matou messed up the plot" online. Some might even go so far as to shout out outrageous statements like "Shinji Matou is just a movie director, he doesn't know anything about Fate."
Shinji wouldn't bother with these people; it would be beneath him to personally engage with them.
Shinji didn't think he needed to do such a small thing himself; his core fan base would list out reasons to refute the haters' claims.
The saying goes, "An army is trained for a thousand days to be used in one. "Shinji had always cared for Miss Alice's team, precisely so that they could be put to use in times like these.
However, these core fans who should have been cheering for Shinji were unable to understand Shinji's "good intentions" at this time.
Faced with one romantic scene after another, many people felt a little impatient.
"I strongly suspect that Shinji Matou's love life in real life has suffered some kind of trauma, otherwise why would he feed us so much dog food!" Shibamatsu complained while eating snacks.
He knows it's bad to eat late at night, but if he doesn't eat snacks, he'll be stuffed with dog food.
"Wait a bit. Based on the structure of the first episode, the action scenes should start in about half an hour."
Azu's guess was clearly much more accurate than the other guy's wild guess.
Well... that's not entirely true, because Lancer actually did make an appearance.
