Is this cartoonist mentally ill?

“…Tonight is the finale of Fate Zero.”

A colleague who worked with him said to Zhou Wenwei, “Fortunately, I don’t have to work overtime tomorrow. I can watch anime and play games in the evening.”

“That’s right. I really have to thank Brother Tian.”

Zhou Wenwei said thankfully, “If it weren’t for Brother Tian’s help, I might have to work overtime tomorrow to catch up on the project.”

Although the overtime pay in this parallel world is very high, they are obviously unwilling to sacrifice their personal time to work overtime.

Fortunately, the technical senior manager in the department, who is called “Brother Tian”, took action, so that they were not in a situation where they had to catch up on the project on the weekend.

Zhou Wenwei also chatted with his colleagues and went to pick up Ke Xinjie after get off work.

The life of ordinary people is so plain and happy.

After Zhou Wenwei and Ke Xinjie went home after work and cooked together, they ate together.

Then they went to read their own comics and play their own games.

After the honeymoon period, although the feelings still did not fade, they began to no longer deliberately stay together, but lived together more normally.

It was just because they all had the same hobby, because before midnight, they sat on the sofa in the living room again, sitting together and clicking on the latest episode of "Fate Zero".

"Tonight is the finale..."

Zhou Wenwei couldn't help but say with some emotion, "I've finished watching another show."

Mainly because he felt that "Fate Zero" was better than other shows, even compared to other shows with Lin Qingshan as the original work.

Except for "Chainsaw Man".

In fact, it was indeed the case, especially since Lin Qingshan regarded "Fate Zero" as the origin of the Fate series.

This is just like the previous "Edgewalker" as the origin of cyberpunk works, although it is not as famous as the founder of cyberpunk.

But "Fate Zero" as the origin of the Fate series will have a better reputation.

And "Fate Zero" itself is a masterpiece with a high reputation of Old Kyon, which itself is also very interesting.

So Zhou Wenwei was actually reluctant to part with it.

But...

"What finale? "Fate Zero" hasn't had a finale tonight, okay?"

Ke Xinjie suddenly said strangely.

"Ah?"

Zhou Wenwei widened his eyes and asked, "Isn't this episode 24? It's the finale, right? Aren't all half-year series ending in 24 episodes?"

"It shouldn't be. The official website said that it seems to end in episode 25."

Ke Xinjie thought for a while and said, "It's probably one more episode to lay the groundwork, and then the final battle in the final episode 25."

"So that's the case... But it's true, it's not good to have a rushed finale."

Zhou Wenwei looked at the time again and said immediately, "It's twelve o'clock, twelve o'clock! Updated!"

He immediately picked up the remote control, clicked to enter the "Fate Zero" interface, and then saw the updated 24th episode.

"Fate Zero" Episode 24, click to play!

Zhou Wenwei and Ke Xinjie immediately focused on watching the show.

In the last episode, the emperor died and left the stage, but the "semi-finals" between Saber and Lancelot, whose true face was completely exposed, have not yet been decided.

Just when the audience was looking forward to the battle between Saber and Lancelot.

At the beginning of this episode, Saber's master Kiritsugu and Gilgamesh's current master Kotomine Kirei confronted each other!

The two held different weapons, and it was about to start!

But at this moment, the opening credits lit up.

But it doesn't matter, C station's built-in skip opening and ending function will take action!

Sure enough, the opening credits only lit up for a moment, and then it was skipped, and then it finally switched back to the most anticipated part of the duel between heroes and spirits.

Saber, however, was reluctant to take ruthless action because the opponent was her former best friend Lancelot.

Instead, the crazy Lancelot suppressed her.

At the same time, it switched to Kiritsugu and Kotomine Kirei.

Although Kiritsugu used a gun.

Seven steps away, the gun is fast.

Within seven steps, the gun is accurate and fast.

But that is equivalent to an ordinary world without magic.

The world set in "Fate Zero" has magic and magic. Kotomine Kirei uses black keys and Bajiquan as means of attack, and Kiritsugu is at a disadvantage for a while.

On the side of the Heroic Spirit, Saber is suppressed by Lancelot due to psychological reasons.

On the side of the Master, Kiritsugu is also suppressed by Kotomine Kirei.

It seems that they, as the protagonist camp, will be defeated.

But Kiritsugu directly turned the tables with his inherent time system and origin bullets, as well as his excellent killer experience.

Then, facing Kotomine Kirei who rushed up, he was about to pull the trigger.

In this way... Kiritsugu can win.

Because without the Master, Gilgamesh will die no matter how strong he is.

But at this moment...

For some reason, the Holy Grail that Kiritsugu's wife Aili turned into, which was placed on the long table above their heads, spread out countless blood-like liquids out of thin air.

Even... it spread beyond the Holy Grail, flooding the entire auditorium like a blood-red torrent.

Then, when Kiritsugu was about to pull the trigger and kill Kotomine Kirei.

The ceiling above suddenly exploded, and a blood-like liquid flooded them!

Because...

The other side.

In the dark corner, the pitiful man named Kariya was in such pain that his eyes completely lost color.

Then he fell down weakly.

"Kariya... just died like this?"

Ke Xinjie was a little confused, and then felt very uncomfortable.

It can be said that the reviews of each character in "Fate Zero" are not one-sided. Some people like and some people hate many characters.

Just like Gilgamesh, even if most viewers hate this character, some people will like this character.

I like how powerful he is, and I also like how sympathetic he is to the king of Iskandar the Great.

Even the two protagonists on the protagonist side, Saber and Kiritsugu.

Everyone has their likes and dislikes.

Take Saber for example. Some people think that the emperor's evaluation of Saber is right. She is too idealistic and too much like a holy mother.

That's why she caused the Kingdom of Camelot to fall.

However, people who like Saber feel that a holy king like Saber is right. Although the ending is not very happy, you can't just blame a good person.

Should good people be held at gunpoint?

It doesn't make sense.

As for Kiritsugu, let alone that.

From the moment Kiritsugu planned to kill Zhao Yun and Kenneth, his reputation has been completely polarized.

Some people think that his realistic and unscrupulous ideal style is the right one. There is no such thing as nobility and reputation in reality.

Especially since his starting point is good, he wants to use the Holy Grail to achieve world peace, not because of selfishness.

But at the same time, some people feel that no matter what his starting point is, his behavior is despicable and dirty, and he will be cast aside.

So the characters in "Fate Zero" basically have two sides.

Only the character Kariya is considered miserable by everyone.

Ke Xinjie, a soft-hearted person, felt extremely sad at this time.

At this time, Zhou Wenwei comforted his girlfriend a little, and then said with emotion, "But... maybe Yan Ye dying like this is a relief for him."

"Yes...death is already a relief for Kariya."

Ke Xinjie thought for a while and said.

After all, after Kariya personally killed his beloved Shi Aoi, there was no possibility of him being saved.

At the same time, Saber and Lancelot actually decided the winner directly.

It's just...it wasn't because of Kariya's death that Lancelot lost his magic power supply and died.

But...

Saber finally picked up the Sword of Victory and pierced... Lancelot's heart.

Her eyes lost all luster at this time, and then she said numbly, "Even so, I still want to get the Holy Grail."

"If I don't, there's no way I can make it up to you."

The tragedy of Lancelot and the Kingdom of Camelot is all because of her, so it is precisely because of this.

She became more determined to get the Holy Grail, and then made a wish to the Holy Grail to change the beginning of all this tragedy.

As long as...she doesn't become King Arthur of Camelot, everything can be rewritten.

The tragedy of Camelot, the tragedy of Lancelot, the tragedy of Guinevere... they can all be saved!

However……

Lancelot fell weakly on top of Saber, but suddenly regained his composure and said, "Even now...are you still raising your sword for this reason?"

"He is such a headache for me..."

He actually didn't want to take revenge on Saber at all. He participated in the Holy Grail War this time because he actually just wanted to be punished by Saber.

He believed that he was largely responsible for the tragedy of Britain. If it were not because he fell in love with Queen Guinevere, Saber's dignity as king would not be compromised.

Mordred's rebellion would never have happened.

So he hopes that Saber will take revenge on him as the Punisher, so that he can get spiritual salvation.

But this time, he finally got his wish and died under Saber's holy sword.

But... Saber felt even more painful about this.

She also became more determined to win the Holy Grail and change everything.

The audience felt a little emotional when they saw this plot.

"Isn't it possible that all of Great Britain in ancient times are some twisted Saber fans?"

Ke Xinjie said with some confusion, "I thought Lancelot came for revenge, but unexpectedly... he felt sorry for Saber and wanted to seek his own death."

"As a Holy King, Saber is relatively difficult to approach and is not as approachable as the Great Emperor."

Zhou Wenwei felt the same way and said, "But it must be very impressive to my subordinates."

If such a saint appears in reality, people may find it difficult to get close to such a saint, but they will definitely admire such a person from the bottom of their hearts.

And after the drama between Saber and Lancelot has passed.

But the scene changed...

It turned into Kiritsugu and... Airi on the beach of an island.

Ellie?

Isn’t Ellie dead?

And wasn't Kiritsugu still fighting with Kotomine Kirei just now?

Although it was submerged in the "holy water" of the Holy Grail, it couldn't appear on an island, right?

wrong……

"Is this the island that Kiritsugu remembers as a child?"

Zhou Wenwei noticed it and said.

"So this is another hallucination or something."

Ke Xinjie also understood very well and said, "Teacher Qingshan really likes to use illusion as an expression technique..."

"That's...after all, mental patients should be very familiar with hallucinations."

Zhou Wenwei complained with a smile.

In the anime, after Eri suddenly appeared next to Kiritsugu, she smiled and said, "This is the place where your wish can come true. It is the inside of the Holy Grail you are looking for."

Black rain was falling in the sky, but Kiritsugu saw that round of... black sun in the sky.

"That's the Holy Grail, even though it's not yet formed."

Ellie continued, "But the container has been filled. All you have to do is make a wish to it. Only by doing so can it come to the outside world."

"So, please, give it a shape as soon as possible."

The black sun was trembling strangely, spinning like a black hole.

And Ellie was still saying, "Kiritsugu, only you are qualified to define its form."

However, Kiritsugu looked at this "Eri" expressionlessly and asked, "What are you...?"

The Ellie he knew would not say such a thing, and as the container of the Little Holy Grail, Ellie should be dead now.

"I'm Irisviel."

However, "Ellie" said this to him.

"No, if the Holy Grail is about to be completed now, then she has already..."

Kiritsugu directly raised the pistol in his hand and said, "Answer me!"

Immediately, "Ellie" admitted this, but she still said that she was also Ellie and the Holy Grail itself.

She knew everything about Ellie's personality and memories, so she also knew what Kiritsugu's wish was.

So Black Ellie began to trick Kiritsugu into making wishes.

"Impossible! Then let me ask you!"

Kiritsugu still didn't believe it and asked directly, "How can the Holy Grail fulfill my wish?"

"This question... Kiritsugu."

Black Aili looked back at him and said, "Shouldn't you know better than anyone else?"

"What did you say?"

"Don't you already know how to save the world?"

But Black Ellie stepped forward and hugged Kiritsugu, looked at him and said, "So, I will use what you have always done, inherit your principles, and fulfill your wish."

"What are you talking about?"

Kiritsugu asked confused.

"There is really no way..."

Black Aili smiled softly and said, "The next question can only be asked from your heart..."

Then the scene changed again, and Kiritsugu turned around and found himself in a hotel room.

Just when he was at a loss.

The TV in the room began to make sounds, and two ships traveling on the sea appeared on the screen.

"There are 300 people on one boat and 200 people on the other boat..."

"What?"

Kiritsugu looked at the TV.

However, the TV continued to play——

"There are 500 crew and passengers in total, plus Kiritsugu Wei."

"Suppose these 501 people are the only remaining humans in the world, and a large hole is broken in the bottom of the two ships at the same time, which will lead to the sinking of the ship..."

"The only one who can repair a ship is Kiritsugu..."

"So which ship would you choose to restore?"

…

Seeing this, Zhou Wenwei suddenly clicked his tongue and said, "Good guy! This is the tram problem!"
