** He also asks why every Greek hero he's met is a total jerk, noting that back in his time, his enemies were much more polite. Except Medb, that it; she was a bitch.

* The FinalBattle in Chapter 43 sees the return of a nearly-forgotten RunningGag:

''(cut to Illya and Sakura lying in a pond)''\\

* Cu Chulainn saw his Caster iteration helping in the fight against Avenger and found it kinda brain-breaking.
** His reaction when everybody oppose [[spoiler: Medea Lily]] being a leader for being a dark sorceress? He remarks that they evidently never met Scathach.

* [[spoiler: Caster!Gilles de Rais]] is still his gloriously, creepy insane self who disturbs anyone he meets. Saber confesses she still likes meeting him now better than their last interaction.

'''[[spoiler:Gil]]:''' Yes, he is. He also has too much dignity to be carried like a sack of wheat, so please set him down.

-->'''[[spoiler:Gil]]:''' ''[Falls over]'' You didn't see that.\\

'''[[spoiler:Gil]]:''' Ah, my thanks, vassal.

-->'''[[spoiler:Gil:]]''' Do not doubt my royalty, peasant.

-->'''[[spoiler:Gil:]]''' ''[Falls over again]'' ...I also find my muscles to be quite numb. Please hold me upright. \\

-->''She stepped outside the manor, ignoring the tingling of the exceedingly barbaric bounded field Rin's ancestors had probably cobbled together out of fishing wire and rusty cans, and found a tree.''

-->''She knew Shirou had come for her[...] She could taste the power of the Servants that fought alongside him[...] She suspected Rin was probably around, too, though that hardly mattered.''

-->''For a moment, the world was right again, as his voice just melted away every last bit of fear and self-loathing and every negative emotion in her heart except the usual hate she felt for Rin.''

-->[[spoiler:Saber was King Arthur, the wielder of Excalibur, the sword of kings that could shatter armies in a single swing. It gleamed in her hands, a hungry darkness that devoured everything around it, like it was a black hole in her hand. It told the universe: ''[[BadassBoast I have crushed nations beneath my boot, and I am stronger then I was then. Kneel or die.]]'']]

-->[[spoiler:Archer was Gilgamesh, the king of heroes, first and mightiest. The light he emitted was not so brilliant as the perfect radiance of his adult form, but it still shone brightly enough to outline half the mountain in gold, vanishing only where Saber's darkness countered it. It told the universe: ''[[BadassBoast I am the barest fraction of what I one day will be, and my power can still shake the heavens. You are nothing before me.]]'']]

-->[[spoiler:Rin Tohsaka was a human, and she had never felt more human than at that moment. She looked back at forth between them, and said "We should run away." It told the universe: ''[[OhCrap Oh, shit]]''.]]

* [[spoiler:Kid Gil]]'s words of wisdom and statements of superiority during the Breather Episode.

* The way Illya's thoughts casually insult Rin in Chapter 35.

* In the prologue, after Shirou [[SpannerInTheWorks defies canon by making nice with Illya]], ''this'' gem pops up:

* In the prologue, after Shirou [[SpannerInTheWorks defies canon by making nice with Ilya]], ''this'' gem pops up:

* Chapter 18: Ilya believing an oversized trenchcoat and sunglasses are enough to disguise her quite unique appearance.
* Chapter 19, Saber makes a persuading explanation attempt to Shirou while leaving out important facts of [[spoiler:Ilyasviel]] in order to [[LockedOutOfTheLoop not raise questions about it]]. And when she finishes a paragraph...

* Chapter 23 is a much-needed BreatherEpisode after the last series of events, which of course means plenty of humour. Bright spots include Archer's [[KnightInSourArmour world-weary]] [[DeadpanSnarker snark]], Ilya's [[SitcomArchNemesis condescending to Rin about being from a "backwater" country]] (with the "peasant" Rin [[{{Troll}} rising to the bait]]), and, most of all, Shirou freaking out when he realises that he's been [[spoiler:taking Ilya on dates]]. It only gets worse for him when he tries (and [[NotWhatItLooksLike fails]]) to explain what was happening to [[{{Tsundere}} Rin]] and [[KnightInShiningArmour Saber]]. Ilya then [[NoSocialSkills voices her mistaken belief that]] he [[spoiler:''knew'' they were dates but didn't know she was 19]], oblivious to how that's [[DiggingYourselfDeeper making things worse]].
* Chapter 25: Ilya walks in on Shiro getting into the bath and is ''very'' forward in her advances on him. The dialogue is priceless.
-->'''Ilya:''' ''Hell''-o!

''[Ilya insults him]''\\

* The way Ilya's thoughts casually insult Rin in Chapter 35.

-->'''Shirou:''' Wait. First, where are Ilya and Sakura?\\

''(cut to Ilya and Sakura lying in a pond)''\\
'''Ilya:''' I hate your [[spoiler:girlfriend]].

* For that measure, his barely concealed anger every time he interacts with [[DirtyCoward Shakespeare]]
* [[spoiler: Caster!Gilles de Rais]] is still his gloriously, creepy unsane self who disturbs anyone he meets. Saber confesses she still likes meeting him now better than their last interaction.

* [[spoiler:Medea Lily]] has none of the memories of her other incarnations, so she's understandably confused when every main character and surviving Servant from the Fifth War all tell her that they: don't like her, don't trust her, and ''barely'' consider The [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt Apocalypse]] to be a serious enough reason to work with her instead of killing her immeadiatly.

** His reaction when everybody oppose [[spoiler: Medea Lily]] being a leader for being a dark sorceress? He remarks that they evidently never met Scatach.
* [[spoiler: Archer!Herakles]] sees Medusa in his [[EldritchAbomination Gorgon form]]. He asks her if she would like to be [[AmazonChaser his fifth wife]].
