    There's also Okita, but I'm not sure that katanas are sabres per se?

    Really, though, most of the class names are somewhat inaccurate. Sabres don't use sabres, Archers often aren't, there's only two Lancers, Riders generally have a mount but there's a couple exceptions there as well, Assassins also include a bunch of serial killers, Casters include the magic of ~art~, Berserkers... I think Erik Bloodaxe is the only actual Berserk? It's the "crazy people" class, in any case.
    Extra classes are better, for the most part, but "Ruler" is kind of weird since it's a very nonstandard usage of the term.

    It's just Engrish, really, and somewhat specific class titles that make less sense when taken beyond the limited confines of Fate/Stay Night etc. (While "Lancer" is still a bit weird, Japanese doesn't make the distinction between lances and spears that English does and "Lancer" sounds better with the rest of the classes than "Spearman" would.)

    I'm disappointed.

    Victory 2:To die from being killed...you lucky bastard.
    Is that really what she said? I'll save any other questions until the profile comes out.

    They're both curved single-edged swords, but that's about it.

    Qin has more firepower, Yu's advantages are being immortal and has unlimited mana.

    She blows herself up, makes it rain blood, then reforms her body, which is why it removes all her buffs and debuffs.

    2 things

    hos likely are we to get a kirei kiritsugu fight or Gil admonishing Kirei in a LB?

    do you think 7-8 lostbelts will be enough to fully develop Bitch, Kirei and Douman as characters? (then again Douman is in Shimousa)
