    EDIT: I think you should consider the rest of the chant "offscreen", in that scene.
    If I do that, it should be the same as Shirou's.

    There's that "square smudge" thing on that last picture, which is reserved for "things Shirou cannot make out".
    Oh I see.

    This is after the first two screenshots
    His spell echoes through the temple.
    …There's no change.
    A long spell like that should affect the surroundings.
    Magic influences the world.
    But his spell does not affect the world, but instead
    I mean, if it was only 2 lines "long spell" it's a bit overboard.

    Shirou
    「――――I am the bone of my sword.(体は剣で出来ている)」
    「―――Steel is my body,(血潮は鉄で) and fire is my(心は硝子) blood」
    「―――I have created over a(幾たびの戦場を越えて不敗) thousand blades.
         Unaware of loss.(ただの一度の敗走もなく、)
         Nor aware of gain(ただの一度の勝利もなし)」
    「―――Withstood pain to create(担い手はここに孤り。) weapons.
          waiting for one's(剣の丘で鉄を鍛つ) arrival」
    「――I have no(ならば、)regrets.This is the(わが生涯に意味は不要ず) only path」
    「―――My whole life was(この体は、)“unlimited blade works”(無限の剣で出来ていた)」


    Archer
    ―――――体は剣で出来ている。(I am the bone of my sword.)
    血潮は鉄で(Steel is my body,)心は硝子。(and fire is my blood.)
    幾たびの戦場を(I have created over)越えて不敗。(a thousand blades.)
    ただの一度も敗走はなく、(Unknown to Death.)ただの一度も理解されない。(Nor known to Life.)
    彼の者は常に独り(Have withstood pain to) 剣の丘で勝利に酔う。(create many weapons.)
    故に、(Yet those)生涯に意味はなく。(hand will never hold anything.)
    その体は、(So as I pray,)きっと剣で出来ていた。(unlimited blade works.)
    Shirou's is 2 verses longer.

    "Nor aware of gain" and "waiting for one's arrival" are separate lines?

    Looks like line break matters.

    The quotation marks do not mean everything inbetween is one verse.

    The quotation marks are there because the speech had to be interrupted to make room for narration of the action.

    I'm not really sure how much this "line" thing holds water seeing as how Shirou's chant is only four words longer than Archer's. Are there any rules as to how many words a line should have?

    While you can't see it in them pictures but during the parts that are missing the screen actually turns black on (but since there's no text on the black screen they wouldn't screencap it). So ya, non high speed is still plausible.

    doesn't it apparently only take them like 10 seconds to chant the entire thing anyway?
    Or how long was it again? It was up somewhere

    If you "hard-cast" it, the standard is roughly one second per verse.

    But hard-casting is for n00bs.

    So, I was rewatching the Kara Remix movie thing, and that gigantic metal spiral thing at the end... any interpretations of what it might be other than eye candy?

    Would Kiritsugu's Origin have been effective against a Servant like Zero Caster, if it came down to it?

    That just reminded me that we never found out what that double helix thing in the Fate/Zero PVs was supposed to be. Guess that was just eye candy.

    The people with large post counts actually spend very little time on the forum and are just super fast typers. Get on their level.

    People assumed that like regular body parts, they degraded with complete lack of use. Then a few authors used it and it is now rooted in the minds of a lot of fsn fans.
