History YMMV / FateEXTRA

* HoYay: Some minor examples between a male MC and Archer, such as Dan's Archer making pointed comments about 'domestic strife' and the Week 7 Day 2 scene still playing out like a LoveConfession, though it's downright mild compared to the below; possibly [[spoiler: between a male MC and Julius in the latter's last scene]], if you've got your ShippingGoggles on. Ronnie's Lancer, on the other hand, is as forthright with the Ho Yay - upon being confronted with the playable Archer - as you'd expect from his other lines.

* HoYay: Some minor examples between you and your Servant if you pick Archer with a male MC, though it's positively mild-to-nada compared to the below; possibly [[spoiler: between a male MC and Julius in the latter's last scene]], if you've got your ShippingGoggles on. Ronnie's Lancer, on the other hand, is as forthright with the Ho Yay - upon being confronted with the playable Archer - as you'd expect from his other lines.

* GeniusBonus / BilingualBonus: Red Saber calls her master "Sousha," in game this is translated as [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Praetor Praetor]], however a literal translation would be [[http://www.freedict.com/onldict/jap.html Conductor]], as in one who conducts music in theatre. [[spoiler: Musical theatre being something of an obsession of hers.]]

-->'''Lancer:''' Is it not fateful, stiff-backed archer?
-->'''Lancer:''' That noble stare of yours outshines the moon. You are the Apollo that I have been searching for!
-->'''Lancer:''' I long to pierce that supple body of yours with my spear. You compel me, you, you-- You '''''supremely gorgeous creature.'''''

** One of Archer's last lines, particularly if you've gone through the Unlimited Blade Works path of FateStayNight:
-->'''Archer:''' "[[spoiler:Leaving the future to your real self once you wake up, huh?]] I see... I guess we're more alike than I thought."

* LesYay: The female protagonist [[PurelyAestheticGender reacts very similarly to how the male protagonist acts]] when it comes to interacting with other girls, including being awed by their beauty. The scene in which [[spoiler: ]] plays out ''exactly the same'' with a female protagonist as it does with a male protag.

*** [[[spoiler: Except maybe the Fourth Round teams.]]

* TheScrappy: Gawain, for [[http://i.imgur.com/GM5Ls.png being a real dick to all three playable Servants.]]
** Of course he does have his fans who like him [[DracoInLeatherPants because he's a jerk]] and his insults are somewhat based on fact. [[spoiler: Saber/Nero suffered a HistoricalVillainUpgrade InUniverse, Archers were not looked on kindly by knights during the time Gawain comes from, and Caster/Tamamo, when summoned by someone with an evil heart, comes forth as a demon.]]

* UnfortunateNames: Though GratuitousEnglish is to be expected, who in their right minds would call their kid Twice?

** [[spoiler: Any of the playable Servants' pasts qualify.]]

* AndTheFandomRejoiced: A whole ''year'' after its Japanese release, with nearly no hope whatsoever of it being localized, Aksys Games announced it out of the left field at Anime Expo 2011.

* TheScrappy: Gawain, mainly for deriding fan-favorites Nero and Tamamo as the "Whore of Babylon" and a "foul demon woman", respectively and telling Archer to "cower as an archer should".
