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

P.S.: This seems a bit long. The next chapter should be enough to finish it. I'll see whether to write about Black Archer or Heaven's Feel first then.

Chapter 300 Young Master Emiya: I won, Archer!

Magical Girl Illya World

Seeing the self-contradictory Red Archer, the great hero Emiya couldn't help but shake his head, "Compared to Shirou Sesshomaru, the Heroic Spirit Emiya is unable to accept himself and hates himself!"

"In order to determine whether this obsession was wrong, he began to provoke Shirou Emiya and confront his beliefs. This is also the reason why he was reluctant to take action. The Heroic Spirit Shirou himself had not given up his original intention, but just wanted to confirm and find the dream he had forgotten."

As he put it, there's a feeling that taking a step back could lead to defeat in a decisive event, which is a matter of principle.

Sometimes, there are things we can't back down from, but isn't that a characteristic unique to human beings?

Knowing victory is impossible, knowing it's meaningless, the act of relentlessly challenging myself is none other than the mistake I made. That's the truth, so why...?

"No, you will fall into despair just like me!!"

Four longswords projected around Red A and sped away at an incredible speed!

"Bang! Bang!" Seeing this, Shirou Emiya could only try his best to swing his Gan Jiang and Mo Xie swords to block the attack! But he was still knocked away.

He crashed heavily to the ground, his Gan Jiang and Mo Xie swords breaking in two, and Shirou Emiya's left hand twisted in agony.

[Red A calmed down, "How ironic! Before your heart, your magic ran out first, leaving you with only that weapon." 29]

29 [“Regardless, Shirou Emiya’s battle ends here.” With that, even more blades projected around Archer.]

“Yes, your idea is absolutely correct. My idea is just superficial!” Shirou Emiya, panting heavily, didn't deny it, struggling to stand up again. “But I can feel its beauty.”

Upon hearing this, Archer visibly paused for a moment. Shirou Emiya continued, "I already know that caring more about others than oneself is hypocrisy, but...!"

"Even so, how wonderful it would be to live like this! I've longed for it so much, even if my life is a facade."

"The wish for everyone to live a happy life is a beautiful one, and I will not give up on it! Although it may seem foolish, I will never give up on it."

"This dream will never... even if I know it will all turn out to be a fake in the end, I will never!! Because it can never be wrong."

[Shirou Emiya loudly proclaimed his ideals to Archer, and Shirou's conviction caused a clear blue sky to appear behind the Reality Marble.]

"Perhaps his ideals were borrowed, but his desire for everyone to be happy was definitely genuine."

Ultimately, it all stems from a benevolent beginning, so it cannot be wrong. Even if one's actions are merely a hypocritical act of self-gratification, even if what one arrives at is only an end where no one can be saved…

But! ...At that time, a pure prayer with good intentions was absolutely not wrong.

Type-Moon Chaldea

“Emiya, you are wounded and exhausted in pursuit of your ideals. But you seem to have forgotten the most important thing…” Dr. Roman put down his coffee and watched their battle.

The fact that the Heroic Spirit Emiya ignored his own existence proves that Shirou Emiya persisted in his ideals and became a hero like the King of Knights!

[Red Archer watched as Shirou Emiya strode towards him, a past scene flashing through his mind, but he gritted his teeth and launched an attack, "Disappear!!"]

[Clang—] The fatal blow was easily deflected by Shirou Emiya. Shirou, who hadn't been able to withstand even a single attack until now, had effortlessly parried Archer's all-out attack.

"This dream..." This shock resulted in Shirou Emiya breaking one of his arms and legs. His sense of pain hadn't been numbed; faced with excruciating pain that could cause incontinence, he could only suppress it with rage.

"There's no mistake!!" Shirou Emiya roared, slicing through the incoming blade. He had reached his limit; even the sword in his left hand was merely emitting blue magical energy, not yet fully formed!

[Absolutely...not wrong! This was the only thought in Shirou Emiya's mind. Even if Shirou Emiya was a fake, this was the only thing that was certain.]

This kind of relationship is the ideal that everyone hopes for. Therefore, there's no turning back!

[Now Red A's left chest is wide open. With half his body broken, what follows is his final strike.]

"Ugh!!" Shirou Emiya roared, his mangled arm flailing wildly, tearing through the obstacles in his path, completely lost in the moment, straining with all his might.

[Red Archer silently watched Shirou Emiya charging towards him, lost in his own world. He remembered the promise he made to Kiritsugu Emiya under the moonlight, raised his blade high, but hesitated to strike...]

This is really going too far, showing me my past self.

[Shirou Emiya, with unwavering determination, delivers a powerful strike towards Archer, proclaiming his resolve!]

"Thud—" Shirou Emiya pierced Archer's chest. An attack that Archer could have easily deflected, he instead withstood.

Within the bounded field, the misaligned gears abruptly signaled the end of the battle, and, accompanied by a bright light, returned to the grand hall once more.

[Shirou Emiya, using his only intact right leg, braced himself against his swaying body. The sword in his hand had indeed pierced through Archer's chest. "I won! Archer…"]

[Red A remained motionless. Even with his chest pierced, as a Servant, retaliating would have been easy. However, his hands hung limply at his sides, completely still.]

Instead of attacking, Red A seemed to be saying to himself, "Yes... this is my defeat too."

"In the end, he just couldn't bring himself to do it, Heroic Spirit Emiya... In the end, he admitted his defeat!"

The Heroic Spirit Emiya saw his own past in the seemingly foolish Emiya Shirou, and recalled his own feelings back then. In the end, he agreed with Emiya Shirou's ideals and accepted his own past ideals.

Although he was not saved, nor could he be saved, he still found the answer.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stellar Cross

"This battle isn't about strength or intelligence, it's about ideals and beliefs." Although the battle seemed a bit drawn out,... Joestar saw the brilliance shining within it!

Shirou Emiya saw his own future in Archer and re-examined his ideals... Archer rediscovered his ideals because he saw his past.

Because of the past that had been worn away by the long-term suppression missions, he found that little spark of light that he had forgotten. In the end, he was defeated by his original intention.

Type-Moon Fate/Zero World

"The Reality Marble is a manifestation of the mind, and the scenery of the Reality Marble changes from time to time during the battle... In this battle, Shirou Emiya has indeed won!" The King of Conquerors is quite familiar with the Reality Marble, and the changes in the mental image of the Heroic Spirit Shirou are enough to show that his belief has been defeated.

Emiya, the Heroic Spirit, rediscovered his original ideals through his constant battles with Shirou.

……

"That's really too much, making me see my past self." Red A's words had been quite saddening for Artoria beside him... Why make someone powerless look at their youthful ideals!

She herself regretted pulling the sword from the stone. If she could go back in time, would she tell the girl named Artoria not to pull that sword? Would she listen...?

Impossible! When I drew the sword back then, I had already foreseen 387's future, yet 387 still drew the sword from the stone without hesitation!

But why did I forget?! The surge of emotion I felt when I drew my sword, that beautiful wish... to bring Britain to peace!

Saber, who was beginning to feel relieved, also began to understand and gradually smiled. "Seeing them like this... is like seeing myself now, denying the beautiful wishes of my past self."

Perhaps in the future, Shirou Emiya will be able to summon himself, because in some ways, the two have something in common.

Type-Moon Chaldea

"Emiya finally remembered that long-forgotten vow made on that moonlit night!"

"That face he once longed for, Kiritsugu Emiya's ideal, was because he saw his past self in it. He understood! In fact, the answer had already been found long ago!"

"Even when he sees the end of his ideals, he will not give up. That's Shirou Emiya!!"

Da Vinci rubbed her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. This battle of beliefs was so fascinating that she was completely absorbed in watching it.

……

Merlin in the Seventh Singularity seems to reminisce, "Shirou Emiya and Ria are really alike... They both knew they would meet their end, and then, for their ideals, they resolutely drew their swords."

Then, Merlin stroked his chin thoughtfully.

If the previous Emiya Giant Hero was created because Miyu was portrayed as Emiya Giant Hero on screen...

This young man, knowing his future clearly, still persists in pursuing his ideals! He can lose to anyone, but he absolutely cannot lose to himself. Could we perhaps call him—Emiya Shirou, the young hero?!

P.S.: I'll just put this broken bowl here first... how about some monthly votes or something?

I've been busy with ancestral worship these past two days, so I could only do my best. It might not be very well written, and it seems a bit rambling and long.

That's all for now, young Emiya! I'll see if I should write about Black Archer first, or the great hero...

Chapter 301 Emiya Alter! A Martyr Gazing at the Stars from Hell

The battle between Archer (Red Archer) and Shirou Emiya, a clash between the beliefs of abandoning ideals and upholding them, ultimately ended with Archer admitting defeat...

But! The figure that appeared on the screen next and the deep voice that came from it startled everyone. The screen, which had gone dark, suddenly displayed a new image.

[Review: Emiya Alter! A martyr gazing at the stars from hell.]

[It's not society that creates namelessness, but rather the heartless executor who has abandoned themselves and fallen into depravity. Their memories are damaged, and they have lost their past. They have abandoned morality, scorned family ties, and constantly mock their own lives as if they were walking corpses.]

"Emiya?! Is the Hall of Heroes their family's property? They're practically a family of loyal martyrs. And now there's another Emiya Alter."

The group looked at the newly appeared text on the screen with slight confusion. Emiya Alter's introduction didn't seem like that of a good person.

Look at him, abandoning himself, abandoning morality, and disregarding family ties... This is completely different from the image of Shirou Emiya they had of him, the foolish and idealistic one. Could he be Shirou Emiya's child or something?!

Type-Moon Fate/Zero World

Alicefell silently counted on her fingers, as if counting something, then asked with a puzzled look, "Kiritsugu, Emiya family... how many people are there?"

Emiya Kiritsugu: "...!"

He really wanted to say that he didn't understand why someone named Emiya would pop up every now and then.

However, it seems this newly emerged Emiya has suffered a rather tragic fate, a martyr gazing at the stars from hell...

Type-Moon Fifth World War

"Hey, Archer! Do you know this guy named Emiya Alter?" At this moment, Rin Tohsaka, who had summoned Archer (Red Archer) to deal with the Holy Grail War, looked puzzled after seeing the name.

However, she did not connect him with Emiya Shirou, after all, judging from the description, he had nothing to do with Emiya Shirou.

"Rin... To be honest, I don't know either. To be precise, I have no recollection of her." Archer frowned slightly upon seeing this. As a fellow executor of the Counter Force, he seemed to have no memory of this person.

The first person to appear before them was a man whose entire body was dark, but covered in strange golden markings. He held what looked more like dual pistols than a sword.
