Shirou takes the day off to practice with Saber, and thinks he can butter her up by complimenting her clothes (even though they’re actually Rin’s clothes…). However, he’s wrong, and Saber owns him hard. After two hours of trying to molest Saber, Shirou decides to take a break and get some food. Saber does admit that Shirou’s strokes are very powerful and zealous… and mojotastic. We can guess what she wants from the Holy Grail.
As Shirou’s buying lunch, he is ambushed by Ilya. Ilya claims to have left Berserker at home, and is rather friendly and chatty. Shirou sees a way to get a quick buck, gives her some taiyaki, and snaps a ton of pictures of her eating for his loli website. The two of them chat a bit, and then it’s time for Shirou to go make Saber a meal. Saber gets him back for being late by showing Shirou what he can’t have. Then Shirou goes to get some jewels from Rin to turn on his magical circuit. You know it’s bad when you need that special jewel to get your circuit to turn on…
Shirou was definitely working the mojo, and it was interesting to finally learn what that weird circuit graphic was. The connection to Electrical Engineering had been hinted at in the previous episodes, but now it’s been confirmed. However, the girls are getting sneakier and sneakier in their attempts to seduce him, and I fear for his chastity. Nothing says bad idea like following jailbait to an abandoned park, where her big burly servant probably awaits. Or ingesting strange drugs from a girl with a clear crush on you. Of course Saber goes on the direct attack and just lets Shirou ogle her naked body. It will be interesting to see which route ends up winning Shirou’s love.
I thought it was funny that Rin turned down Shinji’s offer to share Shirou’s love. Rin plays to win, Shinji. Also… why don’t they show Ilya’s Dad’s face? I wonder if he turns out to be Emiya Kiritsugu, and we get a Star Wars plot twist.

Let’s all pray for Shirou’s chastity. Let the lord guide him away from these cunning temptress.
He needs to be fitted with a locked codpiece =D.
The jewel swallowing part was indeed funny. A lil’ mushroom seemed more appropriate to me. They’re all the rage in London
Isn’t it typical that the more a girl has a crush on you, the less you are aware of it? I’ve met some ol’ schoolmates just a month ago. Pretty girls, (couple of ‘em definitely sexy). They said “Oh, Vittorio [my name], we had this HUGE crush on you when we were in high school”. Crush? Who? Me? Wtf? They seemed serious, too ^_^;
I want to be in my 20s and back there to Wong ‘em all. Like the School Rumble ed says, it’s always a TIMINGU problem.
