    Yeah, it's pretty much just a fun way of referring to Gil's almost-supernatural perceptive abilities. Apparently he can perfectly gauge an opponent's strength by looking at them, too, which is the real way he'd avoid Tsubame Gaeshi if he ever fought Kojiro -- that is, he would know better than to try to fight him with swordsmanship in the first place.

    Shirou would love playing Mega Man Zero 3, and the ending would be his favorite video game ending ever.

    Rider (Medusa) have similiar ability. In the end of 15th, if player chooses "fight back using projection", she is able to understand what Shirou is going do, when he just activates his circuits. When she comments what this ability has no use for her and promptly leaves.

    Side-effect of being divine maybe?

    I don't remember that at all. That sounds more like Medea.

    Araya, where do you seek it?

    Rider has "magic sense". It is one of her ways to compensate for lost vision. She can sense the disturbance in mana or circuit activation.

    Also, there are subtle physical signs of magecraft activation. Rider can probably detect those with her heightened senses as well.

    Anime logic. The blind sees more than the normal.

    HF, 15th day, Rider's question scene. Three choices: answer her question, escape to shed, fight back via projection. Normally, you should choose first option, escape and fight back lead to Sparks Line High dead end.

    Rider has "magic sense".
    Well, maybe Gilgamesh also have it?
    Both scenes are just quite similiar, since Servant shown an ability to see exactly that Shirous is doing to his surprise.

    An Asa Shigure or Nerine Forbesii is always fine too.

    That or the Lisianthus Eustoma or Kaede Fuyou pack.

    Y'know after quickly reading Notes it got me thinking.
    If Gun God shot Zero Caster's Cthulu would it become a "human" identity?
    Cause Venus just says she can outright move her corpse if she wanted to, but didn't.
    So maybe the concept of life given by the gun is actually human life? Rather then giving life so that it can be taken... or both?

    It's not "human life". The Concept is "a finite life span", or "天寿". In other words, Black Barrel forcibly inserts "Death" into something that simply cannot die. That's how Gun God "killed" Venus. Also, there's the "Fifth True Theoretically Element" (the stuff Black Barrel is made of), which totally screws up anything that's made of Ether.

    Black Barrel may or may not be the silver bullet for Cthuhlu, depending on what its true nature is. Cthuhlu may actually have a lifespan, and it may not be made of Ether. Then Black Barrel is kind of useless. It would be just better to fry it with a large beam.

    Speaking of Sion, What would happen if she used Overclock for a lottery?

    And here's one. What would happen if Sacchin was the most popular and everyone was secondary chars while she is the main char?

    It's easy, just replace everything that wingman says with screams of sociopathic rage, and there you go.

    Fixed. Because planes means Lancelot.
