Manga: Fate/Kaleid Liner Prisma Illya

Gil did say that he wasn't at full power though, like he was only able to half incarnate

Overpowering a half power Ea is still impressive though

That is true. That was some powerful blast.

Wonder what the parallel world is going to be like?

(we can stop with the spoilers now right?)

A half power enuma elish, that's still better than Excalibur.

That thing with converting body into temporary magic circuits, didn't Shirou do something like that at the begining of Fate Stay/Night?

So, we have 2wei in its entirety... Who's going to bring the page up-to-date now?

Wow. That was certainly an epic-feeling chapter. Ea vs Ilya was unexpectedly awesome.

Everything about this manga is unexpectedly awesome

Also omakes are out for those who are interested

where can they be found?

Those omakes were hilarious. (Fourth wall? What fourth wall?)

I was a little confused by the part with Shiro. What WAS he cleaning anyway?

I think it was some sort of cable.

Looks like his bow

"Polishing his bow", if you know what I mean...

(Does an innuendo count as failing if it's based off something that was intended to be innuendo anyway?)

Is Kuro's given name spelled "Kuro", "Kuroe", or "Chloe"? Or is "Chloe von Einzbern" just an alias for public identity purposes (including fooling Shiro), and her proper name is "Kuro" due to her darker skin color in comparison to her template Illya?

"Gawd, I'm getting confused by all these Illyas! Erm... Black... Kuro! You're a black Illya, that's we going to call you" - Rin

So it's Kuro, based on her darker skin.

Rin, Whitest of the White Women!

Even if she's Japanese.

Well, it's possible that the Tohsaka's have European ancestry in them, given that they were founded by Japanese Christians... unless the latter were just as ethnically xenophobic as the rest of the Japanese back then?

It's more than hinted that, at least in Prisma Illya, that Rin is of mixed-heritage and Tokiomi married a Westerner instead (meaning that she and Sayaka really don't share a mom). So there is some truth in that supposition at least.

I read a somewhat convincing theory before that the Tohsaka mage in the third grail war married one of the Edelfelt twins. Can't find it now though

Kuro:Chloe::Illya:Illyasviel, as far as I can tell.

クロエ is what she used when she introduced herself to Illya's classmates under the pretext of being her cousin, and is how her name is formally written on cast lists like on the Drama CD. The most basic rendering of that katana would be "Kuroi", but Chloe fits and is an actual proper English name, which makes more sense in this context. クロ appears to be the shorthand form that people actually call her informally, following Rin's initial moniker from the interrogation, though I'm not 100% sure on this as I don't feel like hunting down all the raws just to verify this.

It certainly make more sense to use 'Chole' as a name, rather than introduing yourself as "Black von Einzbern".

Isn't the basis rendering of クロエ 'kuroe', while クロイ would be 'kuroi'?

Whoops, yeah. Dumb brain fart on my part, there.

First Chapter of Drei has been translated at last.

Illya wakes in the parallel world to find the town destroyed, an amnesic girl and is attacked by one of the people who took Miyu

Where?
