* HonorBeforeReason: Even when Saber points out it is logical for her to carry the group's bags because she has SuperStrength, Shirou insists on carrying them because [[MartyrWithoutACause he's Shirou]]. Later, when Caster holds Taiga hostage, he insists on surrendering Saber to her to save Taiga, despite Saber and Rin pointing out they have so many other options. He later lampshades his stupidity.

* AdaptationalDumbass: Canon Atrum wasn't smart, but more in the sense that he didn't bother to reign in his ego to [[BullyingADragon stop ticking off Caster]], and [[SuicidalOverconfidence underestimated her abilities such that he wasted Command Seals in his attempts to control her]]. This Atrum is even dumber, with decisions brought about by his pride being changed to be caused by cluelessness, and he never even bothered using Command Seals despite still ticking off Caster in the same ways.
* InUniverseFactoidFailure: His belief that Caster could summon and control the dragon of Colchis is emphasized as dumb, as she had no control over it in her myth and such an ability would be more suited to a Rider Servant.
* KillItWithFire: Caster burned his body to a crisp while his mind was trapped in a nightmare of being stuck in a labyrinth.
* PosthumousCharacter: He is long dead by the events of the series, with Caster telling Archer about him (and Archer wishing she had eaten his soul).

* FootballHooligans: Losing at batting causes her to go into a British-accented tirade and attack Rin, for which she later semi-apologizes.
* KleptomaniacHero: She jumps at the opportunity to steal people's sandwiches "for the cause", or so she claims.



* TookALevelInJerkass: As a result of the TraumaCongaLine known as the Fourth Holy Grail War, Saber is less willing to follow by the code of chivalry and is more interested in just winning the war as quickly as possible as to avoid potentially being scarred further. The best example of this is with Berserker, whom, instead of doing the honorable thing and announce her name before battle, she tried to kill quickly just to avoid dealing with the possibility that she was fighting a Knight of the Round Table... again. She does eventually grow out of this due to growing genuinely fond of Shirou, which baffles Archer, since he came from a timeline where he was unable to win her heart.
* TotallyRadical: Her attempts at modern language takes a while to get down.
