** It wouldn't be surprising if they had emotional baggage attached to their names, or thought they'd draw too much attention if used in public. Most of them see their time in Fuyuki as a vacation from their usual lives, and personal names could disturb that illusion.

** We know he’s hard-working, he's dutiful to any task given to him, and he can be very charismatic when he wants to be. Plus, he’s got the superhuman Servant strength. While he’d have a touch trouble with legal documents, he seems like the kind of man who could pretty easily get a small job anywhere.

* How does Gilgamesh know things about Shirou's personal life? Between ''Fate'' and ''UBW'', he only saw Shirou a handful of time and all he should know about him is that Shirou had a thing with Saber, that he uses projection magic, and about Unlimited Blade Works. He shouldn't know anything about Shirou's personal life or his training routine.

** Gilgamesh's Sha Naqba Imuru Noble Phantasm grants him an advanced form of clairvoyance. It is likely through this that he knows so much.

* Why are the Servants still going by their job titles? I could get it with people they aren't close with (i.e Shirou to anyone besides Rider/Saber) but even after all they have been through you still have Sakura addressing Medusa as Rider, Shirou calling Arturia Saber, and Medea's HUSBAND calling her Caster.

* How did Lancer manage to get even a single job, let alone enough for his changing jobs to become a running gag? As a Servant, he has no documents, no job experience, and no resume. He doesn't even have a Master to pull strings for him. Who the hell was willing to hire him?

* Why would Saber even have a gekirin? That's a trait of Oriental dragons, whereas she is infused with the blood and power of a European dragon.

** At one point in the original game it was mentioned how Caster was draining people as a precaution so that she had more than enough excess magic to rapid fire all her super high power magic as much as she wanted. It was implied to be like Gilgamesh who didn't need all the power from the orphan batteries but used it so he had enough to pull out Ea whenever he wanted. It was also mentioned that Assassin's actual master in the land moreso than Caster so he may have some funky rules when it comes to how he gets the mana he needs.

** Also, the main reason for her mana-draining was so she could become powerful enough to fight the other Servants. If she doesn't need to blast people every other day, she doesn't need nearly as much mana.

** I assume her case is similar to that of Saber in the Fate route. Presumably, she's already got a sizeable amount of mana stored in her body and keeps the levels by eating, sleeping or just some old fashioned "mana transfering" with her master.

* How is Caster still around? One of the big problems with Team Caster in Fate/Stay was that she was lethally draining mana from the surrounding townspeople to fuel her and Assassin's needs (both for combat and day-to-day functionality). Now that she's not doing that, where on earth is she getting the mana?
