She was?
When she was transported back in time to the moment right before her ascension

In order to get answers to questions like those, you'd need F/SN to actually be competently written, I think. Because yeah, as I said some of in my last post, those are very good questions. Does the franchise have any answers for them? If so I don't know it.
I do recall the point about
her being in disguise as a man as King Arthur
Word of Nasu (bullshit as it may be) says
Merlin, being a magus, disguised her gender from others with magic.

Just because the author didn't think about it doesn't mean it doesn't matter.
Also, seriously, having a person in disguise as a man not actually have any kind of disguise at all and obviously be a woman makes no sense at all, to say the least.
I do remember something about Saber being in hiding a lot of the time and people rarely seeing her, or something, but still, she had to go out sometimes, such as in battles, and dressed like that, no one would be under any illusions about her true gender.
Then it should actually be disguised, at minimum in that ending scene.

...why?
That looks ridiculous.
Fate/Stay Night 23
The Azoth dagger reappears! Fitting to see it return like this. Kirei's curse was the reason Kiritsugu died too? Fuuuuuuuuuuuck.
This episode was really cool as it's the realization of the character arc established about Kirei in Fate/Zero. His speech wouldn't have had any real context without the F/Z stuff nor would the "what it means to be king" stuff between Saber & Gilgamesh.

Her hair has the power of 5 Kirbys!
welcome to the future of anime
Bad.
Bad.
That hair is incredible.
Whether that means incredibly awful or awesome is up to interpretation.
I want those drills to come alive.

Thats one figurine I have no desire to own.
However that Penguindrum princess figure is totally a must buy.
Still undecided about Ohana though.

Worst beach episode ever. Sasahara's whore of a sister was back for this episode but who cares. This episode sucked.
Ohno didn't get the memo that this was a beach episode.
I should just watch this anime instead.

P&S ep 4: High School Nudical: weve achieved flaccid status.com (funidub)
The first one was actually pretty forgettable and terrible, but the second one was pretty hilarious and epic. It was so good once they stopped sitting home on the weekend jacking off to machinery.
Im starting to like the ending song and whatever song it is whenever intense things happen and it goes like fly away now.
Still the anime is really only actually decent when Brief is around :/

Kujibiki Unbalance is actually alright, mainly for the god-tier earworm main music.
The manga makes no sense though which is why I'm glad I have it.

She probably doesn't even swall- nope, can't do it.

I'm gonna watch it after I finish with the first season of Genshiken.
The in-show Kujibiki Unbalance is way better than the actual released dvd series.

Kids on the Slope: Episode 10
Kaoru's scream when Sen came down into the basement was fantastic.
Glad to see them (sort of?) finally wrapping up some of this relationship stuff. Too bad the penultimate episode looks like it will be a big "WE GOTTA GO TRACK SENTARO DOWN!"
That final performance for the talent show had better be incredible, because it's been too long since we had a great sequence.
Oh, and Kaoru's crawling to Ri'ko was one of the most pathetic things I've ever witnessed, hahahaha

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
I did make it to
Last Episode. It was a nice little epilogue, just wish Saber ended with a more worthwhile protagonist. >>;
So that was a hallucination? I thought it was Shirou's dream, but maybe they are one and the same?

Fate/Stay Night 24 FIN
What a great finish...
is what I would say if it ended with the final resolution before things went back to normal.
God damn it.
So yeah, this is a terrible show that was actually elevated to just bad status thanks to the existence of Fate/Zero.
The harem antics were grating, the action was pretty bad, everything about the show being filtered through Shirou was annoying, and the Saber/Shirou stuff was bothersome (although I did get over that part at least). It had some high points at least like episodes 14 & 23, an enjoyable soundtrack, and the brisk pace it moved. Even at its worst, the show tended to fly by which, defying all reason & logic, left it rather watchable. On its own I don't think I would have finished this. As a companion piece to Fate/Zero, it's troublesome and probably not worth either the time or the effort but there was some satisfaction derived from seeing how the two series were connected, familiar locales, and similar plot points. It sorely needed Servants with character though as they were mostly accessories to their Masters. Even Saber being more contemplative due to her time spent with Kiritsugu the previous war would have gone a long way but, alas, that's thinking after the fact before any of this was defined and Kiritsugu wasn't a full character himself.
And for those that wanted my Archer prediction, I'd like to make some batshit guess but figure it'll just end up
I had to go through that to get superior hair down Gilgamesh?? His finals words to Saber were so great. Such a boss. el oh fuckin' el at Kirei recognizing the dagger he gave up on a whim 10 years prior too.

I came for the conclusion of the Kirei/Gilgamesh stuff and I left rather satisfied.

an idealized Shirou that earned the right to be an Epic Spirit thanks to his involvement in the Holy Grail War.

Panty & Stocking 5 -6
What the french toast, indeed
! Brief being awesome and amazing visual quality with all the animation stuff during the action scene in 6. First half was boring (she was ranked 69 on bj.com) 
but the second half was decent.
What the french toast, indeed
what the demon sisters said when stocking reflected all the bullets
but the second half was decent.unfortunately for you, Brief's appearances are very brief.... in most eps
That's how it starts out. And then it turns into...
Bad stuff.
GET HIM!
