I'm thinking of King Arthur and the sword Excaliber if that's what you're referring to. Funny (though not surprising) that couple people thought Saber's True Name was Joan of Arc.

I'll keep that in the back of my mind until it gets revealed.

Using mythology to drive a series is ALWAYS fine in my book...

Episode 4........whoa!

The battle between Berserker and Saber was REALLY brutal. I mean....GEEZ. Saber did her best to fight him, but in the end she got pummeled to a bloody plup. As Saber tried to get up, Berserker was about to swing his sword for the final blow. Shiro pushed Saber out of the way, and he took the hit. Ilya seemed to have gotten bored with the battle so she and Berserker retreated. Interestingly enough, a shadowy person in robes was watching the battle through a crystal ball; I'm guessing that's Castor. Oh yeah, Berserker's True Name has been revealed; it's Hercules!

The next day Shiro seemed to be fine because Saber used her healing abilities to help him (well that's what Rin said to him). Few moments happened like how Shiro feels he's not up to the task so Saber is making sure he's ready. Also Sakura's expression turned rather dark when she smelled blood off of Rin. Could she be involved in it somehow (well, duh)?

Ilya....wow! Talk about being an evil brat. WOOT!

Ah, episode 5. This was a rather light-hearted and entertaining episode.

Two comedic moments happened. One, Fuji-nee reluctantly challenged Saber into a kendo match (rather unfairly since Saber was unarmed). The reason for that is she doesn't like the fact that Saber is staying at Shirou's place. Well, after the "match" you can guess who won!

Second thing that happened is Rin decided to kill off Shirou the next time they meet. Execution-wise, it was done in a rather comedic effect especially when Rin and Shirou jumped off the stairway and landed way too hard; the impact was rather brutal!

Plot-wise a few stuff happened like Shinji and Ayako mysteriously disappeared, Rin was fighting off a bunch of skeletons, and behold she's going to make her appearence next episode!

You guessed it, it's HER!

One thing to complain about the episode, the character designs were rather off in certain places. It didn't really hamper my enjoyment, but they were noticiable.

Oh man! I think I understand why Rider is rather popular; she is seriously a prime example of a voluptious badass, and her chain spears and the ability to do concealed attacks makes her very vicious and deadly! And let's not forget she wears some sort of blindfold all the time.

In terms of plot, Rin decided to save Shiro once again form Rider's clutches and decided on a truce with him. Also when Archer escorted Shiro back, he pretty much challenged Shiro's "goodwill justice" ideals and pretty much laughed at the ridiculousness of them.

From what i've heard, Rider is Medusa or something like that.
