The conflict between Lily and Rin has been going on for a long time, and it is normal for them to quarrel with each other in private.
In fact, the relationship between the two girls was pretty good at the beginning.
No, it should be said that the relationship between the first few girls was very good.
But ever since Rin sneaked away on Nanaya, the relationship between everyone immediately became delicate.
As the saying goes, what is worrying is not the scarcity of wealth but the inequality of wealth.
Originally, everyone was starting from the same starting line, so no one cared too much. Anyway, Nanaya's pot of soup was just there and no one drank it.
As a result, Rin managed to sneak away and brought the soup directly to her room.
Now the other girls were not happy about it.
We agreed to have soup for everyone to drink.
Pooh.
We agreed on fair competition, but your drunk driving once determined the outcome?
How the hell can you tolerate this?
Everyone says that going half a step beyond is a genius, and going one step beyond is a madman.
This argument also applies to relationships between men and women. If they go beyond a little kiss, they can still be considered lesbians, but if they just hug each other, they are the big devil, an enemy that must be defeated.
Well, this theory was put forward by Lily herself.
Anyway, as long as her sister is the final winner, Lily won't care too much no matter how many steps ahead others are.
But Lin really exceeded too much at once.
Lily knew that Oriental people were relatively conservative, and Nanaya was not a very proactive person to begin with.
Unless there is an irreconcilable conflict between Nanaya and Rin, Nanaya will probably continue to live like this with Rin.
How is this possible?
Lily would not let this cooked brother-in-law fly away.
So during this period of time, she invited Nanaya to attend her sister's birthday party, and she also personally went to the audition in London with Nanaya.
In addition to increasing the favorability of her sisters, it was also to distance Nanaya from Rin as much as possible to reduce the favorability between the two.
But things are sometimes not as beautiful as everyone imagines. Just when Lily tried her best to ruin the relationship between Rin and Nanaya, the operation said that she and Rin needed to show their love in front of everyone.
In order to cooperate with the UBW promotion, Trier's operation arranged a micro-yuri CP strategy for Rin and Lily very early on.
It cannot be said that it is to cooperate with the film promotion. It should be more that the operation hopes to use Lily's light to allow Rin in Trier to enter the international market.
The previous sister CP operation of Rin and Sakura was also laying the foundation for this CP operation and can be seen as an exercise.
Judging from the results, the [Tohsaka Sisters] plan has received a good response, except that Rin is very unhappy about having a 30-year-old sister now.
This time, it's Lily's turn to be depressed in the Black-Gold CP.
If it was a year ago, she might be happy to be good friends with Rin.
The two of them are in a competitive relationship now, how can they...
[Hmm... Do we two look so obviously like a couple? In the movie, didn't Artoria and Shirou have a stronger connection?]
Watching the screen, Lily couldn't help but feel a little depressed as she saw Saber, who didn't even bother with her current Master Rin in order to witness the outcome of the battle between her former Master Shirou and Archer.
Of course, it would be even more difficult for her to accept if the management arranged for her to be a screen couple with Sugiyama.
Performing in front of the camera is one thing, but promoting it as a couple is another.
Apart from the director Nanaya, Lily had no intention of pairing herself with anyone else to form a fake couple for publicity purposes.
As for why Nanaya is okay, of course it’s because he is her future brother-in-law, and she must keep a close eye on him before her sister develops feelings for Nanaya.
As for Rin, the other person who will be the target of publicity, she is full of expectations for this publicity.
Ever since her relationship with Nanaya was exposed, this little girl began to hide from her frequently and often planned private activities between her sisters and Nanaya.
Rin thought this was a very good opportunity to understand her competitors and also to throw some eye drops at the same time.
She did not expect to persuade Lily to join her side, but if she could inspire Lily to be more competitive towards her sister and break up the two sisters, it would be beneficial to her.
As for the fact that doing so might result in adding Lily as a competitor, Rin didn't really care.
There are so many women competing with me for men, so this little golden-haired girl won’t make a difference.
[Compared to this product that has no breasts, no butt, and no long legs, that woman is the one who needs more attention. ]
Rin cast her gaze on Shion who was sitting with Nanaya. Although the young lady seemed to be sitting upright on the surface, the fact that she was tightly holding Nanaya's hand could still tell a lot.
Perhaps noticing Rin's gaze, Shion turned to look at the little idol under her command——
"Hmph~"
The standard sneer from Shion covering her face.
【This old witch!】
Although Shion was not much older than himself, Rin still gave her this name in his heart.
Most of the audience were unaware of the open and covert fighting among the girls in the theater, as they had already been deeply attracted by the story of UBW.
Especially since the defeat of Caster's group, Archer's identity has changed several times in these few short minutes, from a ruthless traitor to a dedicated undercover agent, to an enemy who wants to kill the protagonist, and finally to the protagonist Shirou Emiya from the future.
This series of reversals far exceeded the audience's expectations, but if you look closely, you will find that every reversal of Archer's identity by the director was hinted in the previous plot.
Now that Archer's story has come to an end, he will have to face his past self, which is also the nightmare of his life - the young Shirou Emiya.
"Today, I will kill you here! I will put an end to Shirou Emiya's ridiculous dream with my own hands!"
There is a reason why Archer hates Shirou Emiya, even though he knows that doing so will not solve anything and he cannot free himself from his role as a guardian.
But he did it anyway, not because he wanted to change his future, but because he wanted to change his past.
What Archer hopes is that Shirou Emiya can take a completely different path from his own.
It's just that his way of educating himself was rough and dangerous. If Shirou Emiya was not aware enough, he would kill him without hesitation.
Shirou Emiya had the same idea when facing Archer. Having experienced the Holy Grail War, he had already realized his own [lie].
Emiya Shirou, who understands his own physical [defects], needs to complete himself in this battle with Archer.
Perhaps he didn't know that this battle was for him to transform himself and become a "perfect protagonist", but he knew one thing very well -
You can lose to anyone, but not to yourself.
Thus, the battle between Emiya Shirou and Archer broke out, and the battlefield was in the hall of the abandoned castle of the Einzbern family!
This is a battle scene of Shirou Emiya's growth.
Although there was no earth-shattering destructive power like the previous battle between Hercules and Gilgamesh, nor was there a competition of fighting skills like the one between Archer and Lancer.
Shirou, a combat rookie, appears to have very crude attack methods, while his opponent Archer is unable to exert his original strength due to the loss of his Master and his own injuries.
But the impression this battle left on the audience was far more profound than any previous battle.
Because this is a battle between oneself and oneself, which is unique in previous Hollywood movies.
Generally speaking, when European and American literary works or movies involve plots about the past and the future, they always use a fatalistic tone to express such stories.
Whenever someone travels through time and space from the future to the real world, whether the goal of these characters is to modify history or to protect history, the end result is to create and correct history.
The most typical examples are the "Terminator" series and the "Back to the Future" series, both of which follow similar plot lines.
It is like Shakespeare's Macbeth, where intervention is made to destroy the prophecy, but in the end all actions serve only to facilitate the prophecy.
Such a plot has become a formulaic routine, or a conventional plot, but none of the viewers who are watching UBW hope that it will actually happen.
Because if Shirou Emiya's final ending was Archer, it would be too tragic.
Although many people thought that Shirou Emiya was too naive when they first got to know him, no one thought that it was wrong to yearn for justice.
So when Archer showed his future, and when people learned that this young man who yearned for justice had such a tragic ending, everyone felt sympathy for Shirou Emiya.
Is it wrong to dream of saving others?
Such a good dream, such a good wish, but in the end, nothing was achieved.
If this is the future, then let's just destroy it!
"To become a partner of justice, this is the dream that Dad entrusted to us!"
Shirou, who was already seriously injured, used all his strength to stab the red figure with his sword.
"This dream! Absolutely! Is not a mistake!"
Emiya Shirou shouted at the red Servant.
"Come on!"
"Don't lose to yourself!"
"Show that stinking fellow your awareness!"
As if in response to the audience's cheers, on the screen, Shirou Emiya's sword pierced Archer's chest.
Emiya Shirou defeated himself.
