* SpoilerOpening: There are some fairly obvious ones, such as Rin's WalkingTechbane moments and Berserker's new [[ButtMonkey Noble Phantasm,]] but there are parts where the credits show a series of blink and you'll miss it still shots of the current episode and future moments. [[spoiler: such as Saber dressed in {{Meido}}, thoough the jury is still out on that one.]]

Adding trope and getting rid of Genius Bonus since that\'s really a running gag that is pretty blatantly explained. And hopefully that clears the other YMMV tag.


** And when Sakura finally gets an episode to herself, it focuses more on Rider with the joke being that all Sakura has going for her is putting up with Shinji.



* GeniusBonus: Berserker treating Lancer like a puppy (i.e. bashing him up by accident) is funny in itself, but it gets really hilarious once you realize that lancer is based of Cu'Chulainn, which is old Irish for the Hound of Culainn.

** Caster, anybody? Being on the receiving end of Berserker's mach-smash (episode 1) and getting {{Goomba Stomp}}ed by the same guy in episode 5 surely qualifies. Her blue hair is a shade lighter than those three though, so maybe it's that?
