Heaven's Feel Movies

I'm going to say something extremely controversial:

I think skipping Illya's singing in ridiculously bad german was the correct choice for the sake of the tone of the movie.

[fumei]

It's just symbolism to represent he is tainting the idea of Emiya Gohan itself by even having the thought of using the knife to kill his loved one. Instead he should be using it to make a delicious dish.

You can even see it as if the knife itself is crying alongside Shirou, that's what the rickety noise really is. The kitchen utensil only stops to make the sound when its real function is restored.

It's a pure kino 10/10 metaphor. It also confirms that Emiya Gohan is the closest timeline to the trunk of the the tree of time. The proper course of human history.

How could I have been so blind

[Orivaa]

It happens with all weapons, in everything. Salter's sword makes the stupid metal clacky noise when she moves it as well.

Still better sound design than the Apocrypha anime.

Yeah, after my initial time watching the movie, I was really disappointed, as that scene was the one I was looking forward to the most in the 2nd movie (besides the Illya mikata scene,) but looking back, I think that Die Lorelei and the subsequent scene would distract from the movie's tone.

I do hope, however, that Sudou does a flashback or finds another way to incorporate that scene into the third movie, as Shirou and Illya's relationship is relatively underdeveloped in the movies so far. I also hope they manage to establish the relationship between Shirou and Kirei (which they should have started doing in the first movie,) for the sake of the parallels drawn between the two during the last fight.

They did show it. In the silent SoL tldr montage.

I'm aware they showed it, but there was no context. It's wishful thinking, but I'm hoping that somehow they find a way to go over the importance of Illya's singing as well as have Shirou's monologue about how it would be if Kiritsugu was with them. If they don't end up doing that, what I'm more concerned about is the part where Shirou asks Illya if she wants to live with him in order to make up for what they couldn't do until now.

She didn't Excaliblast till the end. All the other blasts were just her tossing mana around.

The first one is definitely EX btw, she destroyed the castle with it

All shafted for Shirou Sakura

I never thought about that!

I'm hopeful in thinking they'll keep everything from Kirei teamup to Nine Lives to the effects of his brain frying. They're all cool scenes that can't be ignored and are pretty significant moments to work off of with Kirei and Illya to make sense of their actions during the climax at all.

Dark Sakura’s dress looks great. The slimmer fit and abundant tentacles really improve the design.

Also is there an actual official explanation why Archers arm shrinks when attached to Shirou?

It doesn't. It's longer than his other arm.

[GarlandGreene]

That opening sequence is something else. I love the use of irony in Shirou's line as he goes out the door since the "enemy that he must destroy" is behind him all along, by his side. Then the opening shows the other side of the coin with shots of civilians and innocent bystanders of the war whose lives are all potentially in danger if he leaves the Shadow alone. It paves the way for Shirou's dilemma and the tragic nature of Heaven's feel and does it effectively within 5 mins into the film.

[SpoonyViking]

Die Lorelei has some thematic relevance to the story, but... Well, Ilya's voice actress isn't exactly a stellar singer, you know.

[Tobias]

You should hear taiga’s sing

ITS SO GREAT

[castor212]

GH resistance is 100%

Just attavck with 200% to pierce through, solved

[warellis]

You should hear taiga’s sing

ITS SO GREAT

WHERE DOES SHE SING!?

[castor212]

Also, while it’s not completely confirmed, some commentary on the godhand suggests it only builds resistance the one time

so hypothetically if an attack deals 2000 damage, and the god hand develops a resistance, making the next attack 500 damage, the next attack after that will still be 500, it won’t drop again to like 100 or whatever. Which is why opponents that are powerful enough can just keep battering through.

Ubw animation material says the resistance up is everytime after he recovers

Like i said above, imo its just upping the output of the attack everytime, basically powering through it

Oddly enough, it seems more relevant to Shirou and Sakura than to Illya. Maybe it would be different if she had her own route.

[Tobias]

WHERE DOES SHE SING!?

There was a drama CD or something verg showed me one time, and taiga’s VA is doing karaoke

she is kinda nervious at first, but about a minute in she is absolutely singing her heart out

ITS SO GREAT

[Kotonoha]

I might be remembering wrong/confusing it with something else but I think the audio of Illya singing was actually cut content and it was unvoiced in the VN proper (same with Sakura narrating her first murder spree)

[Altima of the Gates]

I meant the effect of the worms on Sakura specifically, not the worms existing.

Didn't they have those people who experimented on the kid in SF take cues from Zouken's research?

It's also hard to be a good singer, and also be a good singer while you're doing a ridiculously high pitched little girl's voice.
