Memorable scenes from various anime and manga crossovers: Starting with Emiya the Great Hero

It is because of that experience that I understand this feeling! That's why I can appreciate how much someone who has experienced despair longs to be saved like him.

But because of his own powerlessness, he chose to turn a blind eye and live alone, so his conscience was tormented and he felt guilty! He didn't want his conscience to be tormented by guilt again, so he hated not saving others.

That's why he longed to become someone like Kiritsugu! That was my answer at the time, but…

I'm sorry, Kiritsugu. I abandoned the survival of my race. I... failed to become a righteous partner to save everyone!

I chose Miyu's safety, and even if this path is wrong, I will resolutely continue down it.

Saber watched quietly from the sidelines as the two men battled for their beliefs, without intervening.

"That's..." On the sword mound, as Shirou Emiya's resolve wavered, Archer's sword had already embedded itself into Shirou's blade, seemingly about to be severed!

[Then Red A's deep voice continued, "A partner of justice? Don't make a fool of yourself. Living for others?! That's not the kind of ideal you aspire to."]

"For a man like that to claim he can help others is utterly arrogant!"

[As Red A finished speaking, he forcefully severed the sword projected by Shirou Emiya, then plunged it deep into Shirou Emiya's thigh!]

"Ah!!!" Emiya Shirou let out a painful scream before collapsing to his knees.

[Red Archer frowned as he looked at Shirou Emiya. "The desire to help others was something I admired because of beauty! Therefore, it wasn't an emotion that came from within myself!"]

[Red Archer launched an enraged attack on Shirou Emiya, relentlessly slashing at the sword that Shirou Emiya had re-projected!]

"If this isn't hypocrisy, then what is it?! Driven by the compulsive notion of living for others, one marches forward with arrogance."

[As Red A said this, he angrily stabbed Emiya Shirou in the abdomen, "But, after all, it's a fake. This kind of hypocrisy can't save anything. No… it couldn't even decide what to save in the first place."]

"See? This is the final result." Blood gushed from Shirou Emiya's abdomen, staining the earth.

"You didn't know how to save others from the start, nor did you have anything to save. Watch closely. This is the fate of those who are ugly, self-serving righteous opportunists."

[As Red A finished speaking, he pulled his sword from Shirou Emiya's body, forcefully shattered Shirou's blade, and sent him flying.]

Puella Magi Madoka Magica

"Shirou Emiya's true nature is to help others. This ideal is by no means unrealistic; in fact, it is very easy to achieve." As they talked, Madoka gradually understood the source of their contradictions.

What truly surprised Emiya was that, while helping the majority, he would have to sacrifice a small number of people. After becoming a Guardian, he didn't even have the freedom to choose.

That's why the Heroic Spirit Emiya suffered a mental breakdown and wanted to dismantle his past, flawed beliefs...

Magical Girl Illya

"I'm afraid only I, as Shirou Emiya, truly understand what the Heroic Spirit Emiya said..." The great hero Emiya frowned slightly as he watched this scene.

Kiritsugu Emiya's dying wish solidified Shirou Emiya's resolve to embark on a journey of atonement as a partner of justice!

Red Archer's hypocrisy stems from the fact that Shirou Emiya wants to save specific individuals, while the Guardians' acts of slaughter always involve abandoning those individuals.

They failed to save those who truly needed help, and couldn't even save themselves.

"As a guardian, you couldn't even make a choice, but I'm grateful that you answered my prayers back then..." Emiya expressed his deep gratitude to Archer for responding to him at that time.

After all, ever since she called me "brother," I swore I would protect her!

"I'm sorry, Kiritsugu, I can't be a hero of justice like you. In the end, I'm just a selfish person who wants my family to be safe and sound..."

Chapter 298 Hey! Hell is ahead!

"That ideal is shattered; the idea that others are more important than oneself, and the wish that everyone can be happy, are just a pipe dream."

[Red Archer angrily told Shirou Emiya, "If you can't live without this kind of ideal, then drown in your ideals."]

[Lying on the ground, Shirou Emiya seemed to have lost consciousness. The swords projected from his hands vanished as specks of light, and blood continued to flow from his pierced abdomen.]

"Shirou Emiya's defeat was due to his inner surrender, which made the projected weapon not strong enough."

However, despite many disappointments, this is an essential part of growth. In his life, the Heroic Spirit Emiya's unclear definition of a ally of justice led him to forget his true self and ultimately collapse.

The Seventh Singularity: Absolute Demonic Front

"Is this the end..." Merlin looked at the amount of blood flowing from Shirou Emiya's abdomen; for a human, it was already at a fatal level.

"The end?! It's too early!" The Wise King smiled knowingly. "The boy named Emiya Shirou is a twisted person. If he's only this bad, then he won't become the Heroic Spirit Emiya in the future!"

Red Archer (Emiya Shirou) understood one thing: he wanted Shirou Emiya to find what he wanted to do and move forward according to his own ideas. Drowning in unrealistic ideals would only lead him down the same path as Red Archer!

"Really?!" Although Ishtar didn't quite agree with Shirou Emiya's ideals, perhaps influenced by his possession of another body, she found his unwavering commitment to his ideals to be incredibly dazzling.

[Lying on the ground as if unconscious, Shirou Emiya, in a daze, still heard Archer's questioning. Looking up at the twilight sky, Shirou thought, "His words, while mostly correct,... I feel like I've forgotten something."]

"I saw hell..."

[As Shirou Emiya enters his memories, the scene shifts, and Shirou's figure appears in Archer's previous memories, witnessing Archer killing a minority in the name of justice to save the majority.]

"I saw hell..."

[Shirou Emiya reappears in another scene, where the ground is littered with the corpses of Archer's slaughter, and countless flies swarm around them, greedily feeding on them.]

"I saw hell... I saw the hell that everyone was bound to reach sooner or later." The scene of Archer (Red A) making a contract with the Counter Force appeared before everyone's eyes, but this time, Shirou Emiya was standing behind them, silently watching the scene.

[The scene then shifts, and Shirou Emiya sees a figure with his back to him atop the sword mound—it's the future Archer. "You...you're absolutely right!"]

[As if he heard Shirou Emiya's words, Archer, with his back to him, said, "I'm not very good at adapting."]

[Shirou Emiya's eyes were fixed on that lonely figure. "It seems you've lost a lot."]

Red A didn't turn around, his voice calm. "No, it's precisely because I firmly believe I haven't lost anything that I'm here. I haven't lost anything."

"Yes... that scene was nothing short of hell for Shirou Emiya. It was the hell he had reached through the ideals he had always believed in!"

Seeing this, everyone fell silent. Although Shirou Emiya's ideals could be considered foolish, they were by no means unlikeable.

"He's talking to his future self... Saying he saw hell three times represents a different perspective."

The first time I said I saw hell... it was because this was truly the end of my ideals!

Seeing hell for the second time... it's more like seeing the twists and turns and hardships of this path.

The third time he saw hell... was because Shirou Emiya saw that at the end of the road there was no happiness, only endless despair.

Magical Girl Illya World

"When Shirou Emiya said to Archer's back in the future, 'You're absolutely right!' it was because he too had begun to doubt, and his beliefs were starting to waver."

Perhaps because it was the same person, Emiya had a deep understanding of the conversation between the two, so he was able to hear the hidden meaning in it.

Red A's statement, "I'm not very adaptable," actually means that this is my ideal, and he will continue to pursue it.

Because I firmly believe in it, I have not lost anything... but I still hold on to my ideals, and having my ideals is enough for me.

So, is my future self teaching me to stick to my ideals...? That's quite a contradiction!

"But... I have indeed forgotten something."

[As he spoke, the scene returned to the inferno ten years prior, where young Shirou was weeping as he walked towards him.]

"Hey!" Shirou Emiya called out to his younger self who was crying, "That's hell ahead!"

[Emiya fell to the ground, but gritted his teeth and got up...]

Looking at that frail figure, Shirou Emiya's inner monologue echoed once more, "Why did I survive that hell?! Until my death?"

At this moment, the iconic background music "Aimer" started playing, and the audience outside the video were also somewhat infected by the music!

[In the scene, Shirou Emiya sees Kiritsugu Emiya trying to save him amidst the ruins. Just as he's about to rush forward, he's stopped by the future Archer behind him!]

"Hey! That's hell ahead!"

[Shirou Emiya gradually remembered what he had forgotten, and a slight smile appeared on his face. "This is what you have forgotten."]

"It certainly started with longing, but ultimately it was a desire in my heart. A desire to overthrow that hell. A desire to become a source of strength for others."

"In the end, the man achieved nothing; his wish remained unfulfilled."

[Shirou Emiya silently gazes at Kiritsugu Emiya, who is weeping amidst the ruins for saving him. Then, a burst of light erupts, and a scabbard gleaming with golden light appears on the screen—Avalon, the land far removed from the world!]

[Shirou Emiya places his hand on his golden heart! He resolutely walks forward, towards the mound of swords, where a longsword, radiating loneliness, rests.]

Red A's illusory figure appeared behind him, questioning, "Even if your life is treated like a machine?"

“Yes, even if my life is full of hypocrisy!” Shirou Emiya placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, a dazzling flame appearing in his hand, his eyes filled with unwavering determination. “I will still insist on being a champion of justice.”

[Then, with unwavering resolve, he drew his longsword!!]

"The present Shirou Emiya wants to call out to the past Shirou, and the future Archer wants to call out to the present Shirou... Hey, hell is ahead!"

"Holy crap!! That sword-drawing scene was so cool!"

Everyone looked at Shirou Emiya with admiration as he resolutely marched towards hell, knowing full well that the future held no hope. How many people could do that?

Shirou Emiya finally came to terms with himself. He felt admiration and gratitude for Kiritsugu Emiya saving him, but he also realized that saving others was a genuine desire from his heart, not something borrowed.

Looking at Kiritsugu Emiya, who was crying tears of joy, Shirou Emiya wanted to tell Archer that what he had forgotten was that when he experienced that fire, it wasn't just him who was saved, but also... Kiritsugu Emiya!

Red Archer believes that the path of the righteous are wrong and does not want Shirou Emiya to repeat the mistake of killing fewer people to save more!

Shirou Emiya also agrees with Archer... But, have you forgotten something?! Without that ideal, you wouldn't even be yourself.
