Can't we just go with the 'blah blah blah Gil's fate is to win, but he has A-rank luck, which allows him to defy his fate at every critical point' joke and be done with moaning about how he lost when the odds were so far in his favor?

Insert something about how I'm too busy playing HSR to post here.
Nah, the convenience part was definitely Archer's EX Rank Battle Continuation.Originally Posted by Christemo
If you want to go with that it sure was convinenet Shirou ran out of mana and teleported a few meters back just as he was busy chopping Gil into tiny pieces.

"We have entered an infinite recursion of Saber."
He didn't run out of mana and teleport back or whatever in the VN, though.
That's beside the point, I didn't say anything about plot convenience, only that he brought up something from the anime in a discussion about the VN.
But if anything there's less "convenience" for Shirou in the VN considering Gil doesn't stand there for half a minute with GoB open staring at Shirou till the Grail tries to swallow him.
Wait, wasn't the black hole appeared directly after UBW ends in the VN? I forgot about that part.

Oh I misinterpreted your post. My bad.

Oh dear, you killed badass vs
What if the Counter Force helped him?
The priest was waiting for the arrival of the princess, who was only an enemy of all of them.
For the priest, the golden princess was the one and only main heroine.
Everyone else was unworthy of his respect, no matter how strong they were.

Then he would kill everyone.

We can't tell when the subtle CF is at work or when it isn't.

Except you can because Archer is a counter-guardian so if he was there because of counter-force he would've killed everyone. That's why he's emo Shirou.

The CF doesn't respond to every threat with something Counter Guardians. That's only for when shit hits the fan. Before it reaches that stage, it subtly manipulates events to ensure nothing bad happens to humanity (refer to KnK), responding with minimal force to only erase the threat. Nasu himself said the CF might or might not have been at work when Gilles summoned his interdimensional monster. If Gil trying to release grail mud into the atmosphere to ensure complete global saturation doesn't at least trigger the subtle CF, I don't know what will.

Isn't that the point of subtlety?
In a way, the CF is always acting. That's kinda the entire point of the CF, it's meant to be mankind- as in, you. You literally can't act without the CF acting in some way, and even when you're actively trying to cause the death of mankind, or to punch a way into the root, the CF is aware of that because you're aware of it. It's meant to be a subtle thing, something you can't detect because it's the way everyone would act anyway. Right up until somebody's slightly stronger, slightly faster, slightly smarter than they should be, and foils the attempt to destroy humanity, or weird ghost things show up and nuke Atlantis or whatever.

Whether or not the counterforce was involved could turn into one of those endless arguments... -nasu
It's a cheap thing though. A fancy explanation for plot hax.

Not if it's a major plot element. Araya built and warded his entire hotel complex because he wanted to make sure it didn't interfere. And then it did, through the one path he'd deliberately left open but not realised it could affect: Ryougi.
