This conversation is hard to read enough as it is without it drifting into personal attack territory. Watch it.
And whose that left arm belong to again? A servant.
That statement doesn't contradict anything previously linked that shows the weapons that Shirou projects do act based on their inherited memory and whatnot from Shirou's projection steps.
From that very scene, seeing as you didn't feel like copying the full text.
To cope with his inability to use the weapon he projected, Shirou had to rely on strengthening to empower himself. Even then, the act of projecting such a weapon is killing him.I stare at it.
I see through his giant sword.
I open my left hand and grasp the imaginary handle of the weapon that has yet to exist.
An extraordinary weight.
Emiya Shirou cannot handle this giant sword.
Butmy left arm [ARCHER'S ARM] will definitely reproduce the strength of my enemy.
"Here I come"
There's no need to worry.
will reinforce the broken parts.
I will give my undivided attention to killing him for certain.
This is why Emiya doesn't just project Herk's axe sword and try to melee everything to death, instead preferring to modify weaker NPs to be bombs and attack from range.
But the swords do move on its own in other scene.
Hmmm.
Maybe in this scene, producing the strength of Herc means the strength of the swings, not necessarily pure raw arm strength.
How do i say this
Like, copying this technique, however imperfectly, still requires Herc strength. But the technique itself is definitely not Shirou's, but a projected technique.
I mean, at the very least didnt you already agree that in projection, Shirous whole ability to act is really only following what the sword does?
The sword definitely doesnt magically moves on its own, but i figure projecting a technique, be it imperfect nine lives or simple parries, is not just on the sword but on the arm that holds the sword as well, as well as the arm strenght.
At any rate, we do have scenes that shows the sword moves while dragging Shirou's hand. And the more complicated techniques are definitely not Shirou's.

Actually i should just drop out and go to sleep because im convinced enough already that projecting Achilles running form with the spear is quite unlikely.

Currently (like, actually) finishing Apocrypha 3
I'm not saying Caliburn will magically function like a Dancing Sword. It needs someone to hold it to do anything. However, once held, it will act as it remembers being used, so better hope your arms don't get ripped off in the process.
I always thought of it as the sword sort of taking over his body and moving it on his own.
He never sleeps. He never dies.
Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.
what are Avenger class skills again? And what means "oblivion correction"?
This is always what I took it as. You're replicating the sword's will and history. So that history includes the force by which it was swung, the way it was swung, and the emotions that poured into it as it was swung. Which is what Shirou replicates. He's replicating the image, and that image is of a sword that swings like this. And K&B are his best default weapons since they don't have any images beyond "blacksmith made them to be peak smithing."
He's not literally making himself stronger, he's imagining and copying what is strong. You know.
aaaaand then his arm breaks
Localizationing stuff
So it's Sasuke?
He never sleeps. He never dies.

Thanks
Something weird I noticed today, Emiya was talking about how he was a distorted spirit while beating Cursed Arm. He and Medusa both had an easier time with Cursed Arm than Saber and Lancer, so does Cursed Arm have some disadvantage against distorted spirits that I missed?
They had an easier time because anti-heroes like them get a degree of passive resistance against the shadow, and that is what did all the heavy lifting.
The shadow wasn't there when he fought Rider, but the bit about being a distorted spirit wasn't mentioned there either.
