Everyone has waited long for the publication of the second volume of Fate/zero.Compared to the small struggles of the prequel-- from this volume of increasingly intense battles on, the Grail War has finally officially begun.The many stories surrounding the event of Kiritsugu destroying an entire building, mentioned in the glossary of Fate/stay night, and the constant mentions of the Fourth Heaven's Feel in Fate/hollow ataraxia, have also gradually come to light.For example, in Fate/hollow ataraxia, Saber had said something like this; does everyone still remember?"U-unless this is the octopus Shirō and the rest were talking about? I can't imagine that sort of magic fish!...what? You mean that planar monster that cannot be cut up no matter how one tries to do so, you would go so far as to make me eat that!" (From Fate/hollow ataraxia)Needless to say. What is mentioned here is the battle against Caster in this volume. Then "in reality Saber, what you eat is actually what comes out from inside that thing." If one were to say this. She would certainly be very angry. It’s definitely going to give her a huge shock.And many other stories related to the Fate series, when readers reach that part of the game again after having finished reading this book in its entirety, will certainly incite interest.Then, though this should not be said in front of readers, but everyone probably already knows this anyway-- the ending of Fate/zero has already been decided.Only Emiya Kiritsugu survives, and all the other people are sacrificed.Though Saber emerges victorious, she is unable to obtain the Grail.
