The most chilling scene I had watched as a new viewer to Fate. Hooked me immediately towards hating the antagonist. By giving such a crazy emotion range, it allows the viewer to clearly root against a specific antagonist in a show that has no clear protagonist. Fate is an excellent series, for the reason few other shows can boast as a quality, because there is no clear protagonist. Everyone is in to win and the story is spread evenly amongst all characters that you can root for anyone based on their morals. Instead, it aims more towards who you hate the least. And this scene instantly provides you with a clear and present danger with someone who is unredeemable. Providing such an antagonist allows the show to grow it's characters so the viewer can start to learn and cheer for different characters instead of taking them on face value and rooting for them the whole way through.
Is it weird that I actually enjoyed the time he was on the screen the most
@@poisonedward7104 no in fact those two where the best duo
if you enjoy typemoons darker storys you should also watch garden of sinners!
This duo have the paradox of together being the darkest and most "true evil" characters not just in Fate/Zero, but at the same time, a lot of their screentime is funny and absurd, and releases the tension in the viewer. It is probably the least intuitive choice made in the creative process of F/Z, but it works SOOO well.
What is sad, amazing and horrifying is the fact that this duo where the only master and servant that died happy and fulfilled. They were happy in a strange way even in death and with how they lived their lives
That is my one and only complain with this series... It made me soooo angry
He is the greatest COOL.
I love how even the most simplistic duo of this series had an in depth conversation about God and his nature and they’re place in the world shows this shows quality
This is literally the only time ive gotten terrified by an anime
So true . It broke me
I think Ryuunosuke is allergic to well-lit rooms.
Legit doe, I just came out of having my friend watch this episode and it’s one of the few times I actually had to turn the lights off when watching something
These guys are like the definition of chaotic evil, which is why I love them. I tend to really like powerful insane villains because their stories always add a sense of unpredictability to the plot.
hard to write a good chaotic evil they succeeded bigtime here
For me, the most horrific part about this scene was when the kid was being torn to shreds by the demonic monster off screen. By not showing us just how the kid dies, the sounds in the background make viewers imagine what’s happening. The fact that the kid was screaming for so long, even as the sounds of flesh and tissue being consumed continue, meant that the boy’s lungs, voice chords, and head were left intact until the end. In other words, Caster made sure the boy felt as much fear and pain as he could before he died.
In manga they show how the kid dies
I cried and hugged my nephew . This scene made me weep alot
That's bcz those tentacles had razor sharp teeth .
The kid actually suffered horrible agony . I cried . Fate zero manga its just terrible
Excellent video, love the Fate/Zero content!
I really do love the Caster Duo, they're both horrible and wretched but they have this charismatic back and forth reminds me of a twisted Rider/Waver relationship
Thoose screams are so awful. Caster saying "the best fear is fresh. You have to give them hope and continuously take it away until that hope turns into anguish and they are ledt with nothing but fear." You can hear in the screams how they start and stop seems to imply that in that short amount of time caster kept giving the boy an escape only to take it away as was hoping to get away. Then the screams intensify each time. Chilling
I adore this show honestly, can't count how many times I've rewatched it or written blogs singing its praises. Great video.
Still 0 dislikes almost a year later, Congrats!
I was going to sigh in relief for the boy but "Cthulhu"? Yeah, kid's life after that point was on a short countdown
What I've found interesting about the masters is that only the ones that have given in to their darker urges and mindsets have actually a sense of acceptance and happiness
What always struck me about Ryuunosuke was how innocent and childish he talks. The naive way he talks about god and during the scene on the bridge, the way he yells and waves at Caster standing on the river like a child would in that situation.
In many ways, Ryuunosuke is just a little boy himself. And from how ironically shocked he is when his "work" was destroyed, you get the sense that he doesn't think he's doing anything wrong.
Caster supporting and consoling him also shows that he *can* be empathetic.
With Caster you get the sense that he knows what he's doing when he basically taunts Saber by killing children in front of her eyes. And while Ryuunosuke definitely acknowledges that he's hurting and terrorizing people, he seems to think that in the grand scheme of things it's an okay thing to do.
I'm in love with your analysis! This one made me appreciate more nuances in Fate/Zero's direction that I couldn't notice before. I hope you'll do something about Kirei's character arcs in Fate/Zero and Fate/UBW & HF, I think there's enough hot material for you to delve in. Either way, I'm looking forward to more videos in general, I think all of your focuses have been spot on so far.
Kirei is one of the best antagonist of anime I ever seen along with Meruem, Gilgamesh, Chrollo Lucifer, John liebert, etc.
Literally just finished watching Fate/Zero and was going through your videos on it, excellent vid!
Dude, your script is soo good. Why don't you have more subs?! You deserve it!
i already knew the moment,but it is still pretty powerful. i actually thought caster was a demon because i did not know a lick of history before fate/
@Alvi Syahri well I’m in life Giles was a demon
Honestly Zero is the best Fate series
and speaking of Fate series I recently watched Extra. Was kinda sketched at first but I ended up actually really enjoying it. Then again I'm a Prisma fan so i guess I have no taste.
The Fate/Stay Night visual novel is alot better than Zero
though it is a shame it can't be adapted properly due to paragraphs of Shirou's internal dialogue.
Agreed
You left out one of my fav parts of this. The speech Caster gives on terror.
This scene made me cry
This scene literally terrified me. That's never happened while watching anime. Still is an iconic moment in anime for me ever.
That evil duo had the most wholesome relationship out of everyone else which i found funny
Nope . More like torturing
Never Waver and Rider's >>>>>
caster duo fans : we are so evil!
cioccolata and secco: yes yes, hold my beer
Once again, great video! I really enjoy all your Fate/Zero analyses, and was wondering if you'd move on to UBW and HF after you're done with Zero.
Can't imagine I wouldn't - I haven't seen the HF movies yet (just gonna wait for them all to be out on blu-ray so I can go watch in one fell swoop) - but I really enjoy UBW, at the very least I'd love to talk about a few scenes from the ufotable adaptation.
@@ReplayValue I've seen the first movie (the second comes out on Blu-ray in six months or so) and it's GOOOOD. I especially think the music is so much darker and more unique and menacing than the soundtracks of any other fate anime. The soundtrack "The Flower Will Bloom" sticks out in my mind especially.
@@DJayPhresh It's a shame that they cut out Illya's scenes though, making me think that they'll go with the normal ending of the VN rather than the true ending.
@@redthief4623 They also cut kirei kotomine's scene also. I think they try to focus on sakura only.
@@ReplayValue Still anime cut many content. If you can. I would recommend you to read ubw route of visual novel. It gives you deeper look of every character especially rin and shirou like fate zero. Ubw anime is also good but don't able to portray the potential of ubw.
Love these guys, they are truly one of the best duo’s ever. And they do all these cool things
Now I wonder what was Ryuunosuke's educational degree.
First time I Saw his face and his twisted eyes I knew he was insane and crazy madness type character, but he actually was kinda funny as well
I have watched dozens of anime and this scene has one of maybe 5 jump scares that has actually worked
God yes, this scene still scares the hell out of me every time I watch it. I don't think I've watched it a single time without jumping
I love him so much! He's my perfect favorite character!
This show was so good, and i really liked this introduction. The duo are not complex characters, and this scene is so good at giving the audience a clear understanding of who they are, and their motivations. Very effective use of screen time
This screen is so well done that even though I already read the novel and already know what happened. It still got me pumped when i watch the anime even though the novel describe it way better.
Fun fact in episode 1 When Waver is sitting at the table with the seniors you can hear a report about his killing in the background
In the novel the old couple also warn him about being out at night referencing a serial killer
Yes! There is never too much fate/zero! :)
I can still hear the screams
Always loved this scene.
Thank You Caster, Very Cool
Hell yeah the legends!
I've been waiting for this
Am I the only one who wants to actually see what happens to the kid? I feel horrible for him, and the noises and especially his screams, chills me to the bone, but i still really want to see it. Do we have any idea what actually happened? It didn’t occur to me that he might have been getting eaten....really brutally. From the very fast and large amount of the sounds being made, and the length he was still alive and the way he was screaming, it’s a little hard to guess. I kinda figured he was getting ripped and peeled, something that could last that long, and the climactic last scream being “the rest”, or the face, or something final. Lol and don’t judge, people, I’m just saying what everyone has wondered, whether briefly, or more in-depth.
great video on my favorite f/z team
As long as the watcher doesn't know Cthulhu of course. They know better than to have hope.
Strong video.
MOAR!
Are we getting a Heavens feel version?
Moar Fate
This scene gave me *nightmares* the first time I watched it...
To this day that thing still making me jump a little
