Rider's (Fate/Zero) Noble Phantasm - Ionioi Hetairoi.mp4

[GMI5]

The face of Iskandar on 3:48 ... "BITCH PLEASE!" XD

[FiShar11]

Rider will win for sure if not for Goldy's Hax Weapon.

[mingzl81065]

@FiShar11 Yea...if Fate is a mmorpg, the heroes will be the regular players, each of them possess one unique hack(noble phantasm) that does stuff that's otherwise impossible. And Gil will be that rogue GM who has access to the whole hack archive and his own master hack that does a .killalltargetsradius5000yard command. Nobody could do a damn thing about him because he also owns the servers and the game publisher company.

[IEATFOOOOD]

FUCKING AWESOME! RIDER, OR SHOULD I SAY, ISKANDER KING OF CONQUERORS! NO! ALEXANDER THE GREAT! YOU ARE ALL AND MORE THAN IS MAN! YOU ARE BEYOND ALPHA! YOU ARE BEYOND BADASS! YOU ARE BEYOND MANLY!

YOU!

ARE!

KING!

HAIL TO THE KING OF CONQUERORS!

[FurnaxIkki]

Holy fuck. A friend of mine said he only watched Fate/Zero for Rider and now I understand.

[NicholasGeschke]

Rider - AKA, the Great Alexander of Macedon. What a simply marvelous man.

[nicolasmonoxd]

Knowing what kind of ass Gilgamesh can be, i could actually see

1:42

Gilgamesh: They are your treasure? Since every treasure in the world is mine, they belong to me

>:3

[AlucardHellsing97]

@nicolasmonoxd Funny thing, I don't know if its in the anime yet, but Gilgamesh proves hes superior to Rider later. He even lets him use his noble phantasm, then proceeds to wreck the entire army xD

Rider's still more badass IMO.

[0megaD]

@AlucardHellsing97

He did lose his chariot before the fight though iirc, which gave him quite a disadvantage.

[otakuoverdrive]

HAIL ISKANDER, KING OF CONQUERORS!

BRO☆SKANDER FOREVA XD

[isendono]

3:04 The king drew FIRST BLOOD.

[EmilBuenafe]

I was expecting atleast 1 dislike from Leonidas... XD

[mingzl81065]

@EmilBuenafe I expected: 80 dislikes from the Assassins, one from saber, 10 million from the Persians, and 301 likes from Leonidas and his 300 Spartans.

[GUNDAM00745]

seriously. When will they release the FKING ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK!!!

[zaberfang]

RIDER : HAIL TO THE KING BABY!!!

[Pitalla]

who the fck is that? Alexander Nevsky?

[wisefelipe]

@Pitalla

Alexander the Great, King of Macedonia.

You were asking seriously right?

[nikgokuhil]

First Berserker now Iskander...this anime is full of epic soundtracks! I can't wait for March 7

[zaberfang]

Now I wonder if The Servant Summoned for the Grail War was the Spartan King Leonidas ... with his 300 soldiers... : )

[payasofobia]

@zaberfang

It actually was Alexander the Great, but whatever. Not much of a difference. 

[zaberfang]

@payasofobia Then allow me to rephrase, what would be the situation like if the Servant summoned is King Leonidas with hispower Reality Marble, Thermopylae, along with his 300 badass Spartans. : ) Peace dude! 

[Anvica]

@zaberfang The principle of Spartans who thrived in a culture of combat vastly differs to the men who willingly lay down their lives to accomplish their king's dream, reality marbles are portraits of a person's soul,usually accompanied by magical talent.This makes the formation and existence of Ionioi Hetairoi more amazing in the fact that it is only possible as the king's and his men's hearts are one; in their goals and dreams.Ever since I played FF9, I researched about Alexandria xD

[zaberfang]

Alexander's Seiyuu sounds like a certain Tactical Espionage Character and/or a Brutal Decathlete highschool teacher

[JamesSarrow]

@zaberfang Funny you should say that He's done snakes before... But I like him in Mobile Suit's personally....

[zaberfang]

Somehow. his Costume is reminiscent of the Thundercats' Lion-O

[DaGavinX]

After verbally owning Saber, he does this. Rider is beast.

[LightxYuna]

gilgamesh is acting all cool and calm but in his mind hes thinking "oh shit how am i gonna beat this thing???"

[Mindpovver]

@LightxYuna

Indeed Iskandar is only "worthy" opponent to Gilgamesh but Gilgamesh slaughters him with his hax weapon Ea

[jeezy395]

@LightxYuna nah Gilgamesh doesn't fear nothing. We all know how hax he is.

[mhwk13]

@payasofobia I think he might be Waver. Look him up on Google and go to the Type/Moon wiki. He becomes Lord El-Melloi II, or the 2nd. His grown up pic looks almost identical and in the game Waver becomes Rider's servant right before the end of their battle. I honestly hope it is Waver because he's such a badass as a Servant.

[mhwk13]

Who is the guy at 1:31-1:33? He looks like a badass.

[payasofobia]

@mhwk13

Read about Alexander in History books and you should get an idea about who he is.

[NicholasGeschke]

Iskander. AKA. The Great Alexander of Macedon. Arguably the greatest conqueror who ever lived. His character is Rider. He is huge, powerful and physically imposing.

Plus, I kind of like his outfit.

[666Beefman]

i think that he tried to say αιώνιοι eonioi (immortal the one who cant age ) and not ionioi (ionians ) hetairoi (cavarly also εταιρος hetairos mean friend and coworker

[wisefelipe]

All Hail the King of Bros!

[Ezekratos]

@wisefelipe He should has the Skill: Bro's Aura Rank EX

[MentalNinj4]

@wisefelipe Hail! The Bro King will reign upon all land and sea, and all the nations shall bro down to him!

[wisefelipe]

@MentalNinj4

"bro down"

I see what u did there :P

[megamanbluemoon]

Only bad part Fate Zero is towards the last few eps ( mainly this one ) the animation quality dropped significantly. The first 5 episodes had better animation than Guilty Crown. Still pretty epic though, I hope the break will make sure the animation quality for the 2nd half stays good.

[wisefelipe]

@megamanbluemoon

That's why they had the break to begin with :P

They do say that the Blue-ray version of this episode is completely reanimated though,

[iaren0good]

Gilgamesh is sexy in fate zero c:

I guess I'll cry in season 2 if.........

Holy *shit*, the horse is a Heroic Spirit, too.

[nickranzeru]

FUCKING AWESOME!!!

[gigaganon]

can't wait for the ost!

[mbatuna]

Iskandar is one bad ass mother fucker in this episode!

[Thundy89]

What is the name of this ost? or isnt it out yet

[Happymasks]

This right here is the true essence of a king. Why the hell can't the world be like that for real?

[darkwind212]

@Happymasks It was, 2000 years ago.

[UltimaShadow]

@Happymasks

Agreed. And F/Z Rider actually stays true to the real Alexander the Great in what he says during this scene.

Alexander the Great was a king who not only charged into battle along with his soldiers, but also drank, chatted and spent much time with them. He was their king, but he was also their friend. And his army stayed incredibly loyal to him for this reason.

[Nuvenim]

@UltimaShadow 'And his army stayed incredibly loyal to him for this reason.'

If this is true, then one wonders why they diced up his empire and fought for power over his lands nearly immediately after his death.

[UltimaShadow]

@Nuvenim

Well, to simply quote Wikipedia:

"He had great charisma and force of personality, characteristics which made him a great leader. His unique abilities were further demonstrated by the inability of any of his generals to unite Macedonia and retain the Empire after his death – only Alexander had the ability to do so."

So basically, they were loyal to Alexander, not his generals. So when Alexander died and his generals took the command, things didn't go well anymore.

[CreepyQuietKid]

Wow... even Gilgamesh couldn't talk shit.

[TheHmongGamer]

@CreepyQuietKid Gilgamesh still crushed it, in the novels.

[Nuvenim]

@CreepyQuietKid He was a lot more verbose in the novel, they probably cut it when it was aired.

[larze85]

Truly the greatest treasure a king could have.

[MrsJazzberry]

Epic... ;~;

[itsaraofgod]

ใช่ ใช่ ใช่!

[keyinregulus13]

Love the part where he screams "YOOOOOOO!"
