Fate/strange Fake (2024) s01e03 Episode Script
A Battle without Heroes
You didn't have to trouble
yourself with coming here.
I could have gone to you.
I am somewhat responsible
for shoving Flat onto you.
Honestly, the fact that you
keep harboring him
I am beyond admiration.
I'm frankly dumbstruck.
You said you were just going to stand by
and observe this Holy Grail War.
But what will you do about Flat?
I'd like to say it's
outside my jurisdiction
but he is still one of my students.
And the Holy Grail War
happening over there
seems to have some
strange things going on.
Strange?
No.
Perhaps the Holy Grail War
hasn't even begun.
The Overseer for the Holy Grail War?
How reprehensible.
I rushed to join this war
because I heard the
Church wasn't involved.
But in the end, this city is also—
You're too long-winded, damn corpse.
What is the meaning of this?
Mm my treat.
You should slurp it instead of
the blood of the guys around here.
I see, I get it! Your treat!
But this is the coffee they're handing out
for free at the information desk!
Huh?
I thought I would blow your head off.
But it's certainly quite hard.
A passing of the baton, so to speak.
I'll get rid of him.
Are you saying you're going to assist us?
Before I am an Overseer, I'm a priest.
But, well, there is something
I want in return.
Please keep how I just wasted
that coffee quiet from the Church.
I'm scared of getting scolded by Father.
I let my guard down.
Yes.
I let my guard down just now!
This must be what people call "hubris"!
Don't be so humble.
You didn't let your guard down.
You always go full throttle, don't you?
Are you an Executor?
I'm taking a break from being an Executor.
Today, I'm here as the Overseer.
What a foolish choice!
Defeating me means you are abandoning
your neutrality as Overseer!
Oh? I didn't hear anything about you
being a Master of the Holy Grail War!
I declared as such before
Assassin just now!
The Servant seemed like she wanted to deny
your entire existence, though, didn't she?
That is part
of the beauty!
Hah!
That doesn't answer the question!
Hmm?
What's that?
A Servant?
That's
the priest from earlier.
But the other one
Humph.
No clue!
I've no clue, but that's
certainly not a Servant.
Likely some sort of demon
or a type of apparition.
However, that priest
With his body as it is, he has yet to
completely become a tool for his god?
We have an audience, now!
What happened to you concealing
the Holy Grail War?
Something of this caliber
can be easily explained away.
More importantly
if you can't hit me,
I'll attack you, okay?
Is this your job as Overseer?
I am a Master, someone you lot
need to safeguard, you know!
The Church interferes to conceal Mystics
and protect the tranquility of humanity.
If a vampire were to get
ahold of the Holy Grail,
I'd be a failure of an Overseer, wouldn't I?
I didn't realize
you wanted to kill me that much.
Did a Dead Apostle kill your parents
or lover or something?
Well, they killed off my entire clan,
but I don't really bear a grudge over it.
No matter how I look at
you, you're a villain.
Are you dissatisfied with that reason?
All of your words and actions irritate me.
So, you're going to aimlessly
kill Dead Apostles
without feeling any particular belief?
Polar opposites from
that elegant Assassin!
How ugly!
I'll take this!
Damn you!
You have a prosthetic hand?
I have to deal with monsters
like you after all.
Seventy percent of my body is
made up of consecrated mechanical parts.
That wind earlier Is that your power?
Sorry, but I'm a coward.
I've no intentions
of sharing my grand insights!
I see, I see.
You're top tier among all
the Executors I've seen!
Perhaps you're part
of the much-rumored Burial Agency?
Burial Agency?
Me?
This corpse is spouting nonsense.
I am nowhere near them.
No
I wouldn't dare be even placed
on the same plane as them!
What?
It's true that
I can inflict the same
amount of damage to you
as nuclear missiles or chemical weapons!
But mere human weaponry
falls far short of such dignitaries!
They execute the works of God Himself
and annihilate evil
violating His territory!
A comparison is nothing
but an insult to their name!
You are a mere violation
to the realm of humanity.
Thus, I will
annihilate you with the power of humans!
I see. So, this is where things get real.
But it seems we're out of time.
I'll leave it to an
introduction for today.
I'm not letting you escape.
Too bad!
Huh?
Hey, boy!
Did you see anything?
A scary old man said, "Outta the way"
and everyone
Do you know which way he went?
I see.
I'm glad you're okay.
You're safe now.
It's me.
All hands are to surround the building.
He might try to mingle
among the evacuating crowd.
Make sure to catch anyone suspicious.
A Dead Apostle seeking the Holy Grail
This world really is coming to an end.
I wonder if the police are all right.
Yeah.
There are many injured, but fortunately,
it seems there are no casualties.
Please stop.
I'm terribly sorry
but I was told to check out any suspicious
individuals in the surrounding area.
GLOOM
Well you look a ton more suspicious.
Huh?
They're burning incense
for group hypnosis.
The Church is trying to conceal that
battle against the Dead Apostle, right?
So, you are a Servant and his Master.
Apologies for my rudeness.
Dead Apostle?
Basically, what your
society calls a "vampire."
There's the likes of those, too?
I don't want to get roped
into something troublesome.
I'll be going now.
Right. Let's get going!
You don't have to come with me.
Please come to the Central Church
when you have a moment.
The Overseer has something
to talk about with Masters.
I'm sorry, but I'm not a Master.
What in the world
am I supposed to do in this city?
Huh?
If it ain't that girl from the other day!
Oh
Hey!
Damages?
No injuries among the civilians.
Several Clan Calatin were injured.
Currently undergoing treatment.
You shouldn't overexert yourself.
We can take care of the rest.
No, I'll keep going! Please allow me to!
With those wounds?
You still have a future ahead of you.
You shouldn't needlessly let that go.
But I
I want to protect the future of this city!
Is there anything to guarantee
you won't just be a liability?
Well
if the only opponent we were
facing were Servants,
I may have been able to resign myself.
However, if we leave
such corrupt individuals like him be
what will happen to this city?
This isn't about me as a Mage.
I can't stand by and watch
as a police officer!
I accept the ardor.
But I can't allow a diehard
to expose everyone to danger.
If you're saying you can still fight
prove that you can handle a weapon
with one arm or with a prosthetic hand
John Wingard.
I'll do it!
It's me.
Hey, Brother! What a misfortune!
To think that was a vampire!
Surprised even me!
That said, you got a package
from a guy named Shishigou.
With this thing, I think you
can get to the heart
of your opponent even if he's a vampire.
I'll make it
for that young lad that got injured.
Using this Hydra poison
dagger as the base.
Looking forward to it.
I'm leaving you in charge here.
Where to?
I have to question the superiors.
If, under these conditions
they're still going to start
the other war as planned.
I hope the young lady Assassin
comes back soon.
We will bring you more coverage on the
terrorist attack near the police station
as information comes in.
Up next
My goodness, that Servant
who was giving a speech
Wasn't his charisma through
the roof, Mr. Jack?
I must say, calling out my
True Name so publicly
is rather concerning. More than that
if that is your impression of seeing
a Heroic Spirit that
you should antagonize
it gives me doubts about you as a Master.
I've been telling you,
we're not going to antagonize anyone!
We can all be friends!
I'm more and more uncertain
whether you understand
the meaning behind the Holy Grail War.
It's fine! I made sure to take a picture
of the Dead Apostle person!
This is valuable!
Everyone else was forced to erase
any pictures because of the hypnosis!
Please use your phone
quietly in the store!
Oh, I'm sorry.
What do you mean,
the Holy Grail War hasn't started yet?
I only have fragmented information,
but it seems that the United States
is starting something
behind the scenes of the war.
I gained this intel from a Mage
who has snuck into Snowfield.
Most likely the doings of a Heroic Spirit.
It's proof that multiple powerful Servants
have been summoned.
However, in the past few hours
the Leyline in Snowfield is once again
showing an abnormal swell in Magical Energy.
Despite the Heroic Spirits being summoned,
it is absorbing Magical Energy once again?
Exactly.
I just received additional data
from my collaborator.
This seems to be footage from a TV show
from a local station over there.
You say it's out of your jurisdiction,
but you really are a worrywart.
I'm finally done!
I can finally contact
my professor now, Mr. Jack!
Seeking advice from your mentor
for surviving the Holy Grail War?
More like, there's something strange
about this city.
There are illusions using Magecraft
quietly set up throughout the city.
And there's a strange fog drifting around.
Fog?
Besides, knowing my professor,
I'm sure he's really worried.
And I want to inform him about you
more than anything, Mr. Jack!
And
I wanted to ask how I can become friends
with the other Servants.
I took a picture of one other Servant
back at the police station.
H-Hold on a second there!
What do you mean, another Servant?
Oh, right.
Your attention was glued to the battle between
the priest and the Dead Apostle,
so you didn't notice.
Why didn't you say something?
Well, I mean
if I kicked up a fuss and he noticed,
I'd likely have been killed in an instant.
What?
I've never seen such an amazing
cluster of energy like that.
I think I'd be dead meat
the moment they noticed.
I thought you just a fool
yet you are practical
in the strangest way.
You thought I was just a fool until now?
Are you angry?
No, I'm actually kind of happy instead.
From when I was a child, people were
scared of me and avoided me all the time.
There were few
who'd actually scold me to my face.
I see.
The only people that would
were my professor,
his little sister the princess
everyone in my class, also the alumni.
No, wait. Isn't that quite a few?
Huh? Is this TV?
Wow! I wonder if the professor
and Reines are watching this!
Both mentor and apprentice
join the Holy Grail War, sneaking
behind the backs of their professors.
I guess recklessness
is part of what is being taught.
I have no words of rebuttal.
Excuse me.
Hi, Professor!
Thanks to you,
I was able to summon the
best Heroic Spirit ever!
Say hello to the one and only Berserker!
You ingenious idiot.
Here's a picture of the Heroic Spirit
I saw in the city!
What should I do to befriend them?
Impossible!
Hah!
Even simply comparing how
the streets and buildings are lined up
the city of Uruk is more beautiful!
My king
I hear that the Holy Grail Wars of yore
had cases where entire
buildings were annihilated.
They may come to destroy
the Crystal Hill entirely, too.
That is not even an issue for me.
However, I am the one
who beckoned you here.
I will make a special case
and at least get you a parachute.
O-Okay.
So, Tiné
You want to regain this land, do you not?
Of course!
Then wouldn't it be the fastest
to take this mediocre scenery
and clear the land, usurpers and all?
S-Surely you joke.
A joke?
That is the closest answer
to what your ancestors eagerly wished for, right?
What difference is there
between the lives of the clown
who first summoned me
and the mongrels of this city?
Committing such savagery will make us the
same as the Mages who pilfered this land.
A model answer.
But that's not enough.
That is not a solution that you personally
came up with yourself, now is it
Tiné Chelc?
Personally?
You finally have doubt.
Then all is well.
Huh?
Doubt is the foundation
by which you break through blind faith.
Worry not
it was because you had
such a depressed look on your face.
I was merely teasing you a bit.
What's wrong?
Have you finally realized
that the most supreme
recreation in this world
is to behold my glory?
It is fine, I shall allow it!
Gaze upon me to your heart's content,
then pass the story down the generations!
That is a Saber!
This cannot be!
Indeed.
I've never heard of a Heroic Spirit
who gives a speech on TV.
That's not it.
The land started emitting Magical Energy
at about the same time
as this live broadcast.
It's as if
the Holy Grail is starting
to summon seven Heroic Spirits.
What?
The States had called this
a "Fake Holy Grail War."
Six Servants, with no Saber.
I didn't understand what
they meant by that.
It can't be!
Is this Saber the first one?
If the six already summoned
were only catalysts
for the actual rituals to be held
It's time.
For the elements, silver and iron.
For the foundation, stone
and the Archduke of Contracts.
new Heroic Spirits
will be summoned to Snowfield!
Come forth from the circle of binding
Guardian of the Scales!
Huh?
It failed?
It's me.
Yes, it was a failure.
Ultimately, seven of them is the limit
for materializing at the same time—
