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

Next, I'll write about Academy City, specifically the weakest vs. strongest and Daihasei Festival arcs. After all, a sealed seal is still a sealed seal; it's quite interesting.

Chapter 325, the Great Hero Emiya arc, has ended!

At this moment, the black ribbons floating in the sky gradually disintegrated until they disappeared, and Sakura returned to her original form.

But as the ground trembled, Shirou Emiya looked up at the hole in the sky and the four enormous eyeballs, and a thought already formed in his mind: "Don't stop..."

A small black figure walked over and covered Sakura's body again, with a tiny light shining from her heart. Shirou Emiya smiled with relief upon seeing this.

"Shirou..." Rider, now fully healed, appeared behind them.

"Oh, it's you... You've come at the right time." Shirou Emiya turned to look at the newcomer, but his tone seemed to pause slightly. "Could you take Sakura and Tohsaka with you?"

“That…ri…ri…” The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn’t remember Rider’s name, and he had almost completely forgotten who she was.

Rider looked at Shirou Emiya in silence for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "I understand."

After entrusting Sakura, whom he was holding, to Rider, Shirou Emiya took a key from his pocket and handed it to him, saying, "And... give this... to Sakura..."

At this moment, Shirou Emiya's tone became hesitant and stammering, as if he could no longer even speak clearly.

“This should be your job…” Rider paused halfway through his sentence, but after seeing the blades emerging from Shirou Emiya’s body, he quietly agreed, “Alright!”

After Rider left, Shirou Emiya turned and walked towards the radiant Angra Mainyu, his gaze growing increasingly unfocused as he advanced.

"He probably doesn't remember Rider at all now. He had a vague memory of her after defeating Saber Alter, but his condition worsened again after projecting Lulu without getting tired."

"It has been projected four times already, and even its speech is intermittent. Its physical body and spirit are constantly collapsing, and even the sword blades that have grown out of its body have not yet been retracted."

Even so, he still had to deal with the last Angolan man, and he was even prepared not to come back. Perhaps this is what makes this man so charming.

Key 29 is proof of family 29. Giving the key to Sakura is to tell her that there is still a place that can accept her and she can go back to... Even though she has forgotten everything, she still remembers Sakura's name.

Magician Night

"There's no going back... This body is beyond saving." Aozaki Touko made a definitive conclusion; even the nerves in her brain had been eroded.

Honestly, the fact that Shirou Emiya still remembers what he's supposed to do is beyond her expectations. With Origin going berserk like this, he should have died long ago.

Not only the body, but also the mind and soul are dying. The current state is one of complete confusion, and the person is acting entirely on subconscious impulses.

Academy City World

"What an irony that world is! The ally of justice saved everyone, but couldn't save himself." Touma Kamijou felt a pang of pity for the boy who had given everything to end his life like this.

Even though all his memories were beginning to fade, he hadn't forgotten to save the world. Even as his eyes became blurry, he still subconsciously kept moving towards Angolan Mainyu.

Perhaps Shirou Emiya already knew he couldn't go back, which is why he entrusted the key to Rider. He still had to resolve everything here... Or perhaps he didn't even know who he was anymore, and was just acting on instinct.

Magical Girl Illya World

"As expected, Shirou Emiya is a complete idiot." Angelica, the "big sister-in-law," cursed expressionlessly upon seeing this. In the end, she was still a champion of justice at heart!

The innocent Shirou Emiya glanced at Angelica, the great hero who was being scolded. The word "partner of justice" had been a part of Shirou Emiya's life. It was also within his expectations that Shirou Emiya would stay and intend to solve the remaining problems on his own.

Since he wants to be Sakura's only partner in justice, he will definitely solve the problems left behind by Sakura, which can be considered a kind of redemption for Sakura.

[After walking for a while like a zombie, Shirou Emiya stopped. A figure was crouching on a rock in front of Angra Mainyu.]

"It seems we've all managed to hold on until now, despite the difficulties. Emiya... Shirou," Kirei Kotomine turned to look at Shirou Emiya, seemingly with some pleasure.

Shirou Emiya turned his gaze to Angra Mainyu, whose four large eyes were fixed on the creature. "Even if this thing were to come into being, your wish would not be fulfilled."

[Kirei Kotomine: "Of course it can be achieved. I have only one goal, and that is to bring this curse into existence."]

[Shirou Emiya angrily questioned Kirei Kotomine: "Why?! Why are you protecting him like this? He is evil itself!"]

"At this moment, he has neither done evil nor good." Kirei Kotomine began to slowly remove his robes. "Humans all begin with nothing. To learn what is right? Everyone starts from zero."

"If we're talking about responsibility, then it's only for the environment that nurtured that human being. If a life wants to hatch, then let it break free from its shell; that's true love."

"I only felt immense happiness from the misfortunes of others."

[Shirou Emiya disagreed with Kirei Kotomine's ideals, and the two gradually moved closer to each other. The moment Kirei Kotomine threw down the crucifix he was holding, he punched Shirou Emiya in the face.]

“Ugh…”

[Shirou Emiya also punched Kirei Kotomine in the face, and the two began to fight like ordinary people, exchanging blows for their own ideals.]

However, every time Kirei Kotomine attacks, he injures himself. Just like now, when he kicked Shirou Emiya, he was also stabbed by the blades that grew out of Shirou's body.

Seeing this, Kirei Kotomine couldn't help but retort, "This body is really troublesome; you getting hit actually hurts me more."

"Kirei Kotomine's theory clearly doesn't fit the fact that Angraman, though not yet born, manipulated Sakura to commit many sins. Doesn't that count as the second evil?"

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that the Origin Rampage would give Emiya Shirou a built-in anti-armor, and while he was being hit, it was Kotomine Kirei who was in pain."

The people of other worlds remained neutral regarding Kirei Kotomine's theories. Some of what he said was correct; something that hadn't yet been born couldn't truly be called evil. However, some of it was wrong, namely, that his theories clearly didn't apply to the current Angra Mainyu.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind

"Perhaps Kirei Kotomine believes that he and this thing are both born evil, and if this thing can be taught to be good after its birth, it means that he also has the opportunity to be good?!"

Even the exceptionally intelligent Giorno Giovanna couldn't quite guess Kirei Kotomine's thoughts.

Kirei Kotomine's view on evil is a way of thinking that first blurs the lines between good and evil and then reconstructs them. He believes that choice determines the value of good and evil more than human nature.

To be honest, Giorno Giovanna still thinks Kirei Kotomine's words make a lot of sense, namely that responsibility is related to the environment that nurtures humanity.

However… Giorno always felt that Kirei Kotomine was subtly changing the subject, and what he said at first made some sense, but as he continued, he clearly expressed his own serious distortion.

"To find immense happiness in the misfortune of others... that's a truly twisted way of thinking."

The two continued their battle, Kirei Kotomine's voice growing stronger with each exchange: "Ultimately, is killing evil?! You, who wanted to protect Sakura Matou, have the right to say that."

Kirei Kotomine punched Shirou Emiya, knocking him to the ground, and continued, "Evil people can suddenly show kindness, and saints can commit evil on a whim. This contradiction is what makes us human."

[Shirou Emiya spat out a mouthful of blood, along with a broken tooth, and, to Kirei Kotomine's shocked expression, punched him in the stomach.]

"But this thing was created solely to kill!"

The pain in his abdomen made Kirei Kotomine grit his teeth inwardly, but he didn't deny Shirou Emiya's point of view. "Yes, but whether he himself thinks so is still unknown."

Kirei Kotomine gripped Shirou Emiya's neck tightly with both hands, pushing him step by step towards the lava behind him: "If he is born, he will likely slaughter everyone, just as everyone expects."

"And when he's the only person left in the world, will he be able to let himself go? That's what I want to know."

"So, for this reason, they want to bring evil into this world? How twisted... Kirei Kotomine."

"In the end, Kirei Kotomine just wanted to rationalize his abnormality compared to ordinary people."

The people from other worlds finally understood what kind of person Kirei Kotomine really was...

It is purely for the sake of pleasurable pleasure, without any expectation of the goodwill or justice of others, but only for the sake of one's own obsession with evil.

Because this is where his pleasure lies, and it is also his value in existence. Just like Shirou Emiya's twisted sense of justice, it is more like a flaw in his personality. The conflict between his sense of morality and his innate desires has never changed until it has developed into this twisted personality.

[For this reason... Shirou Emiya was utterly enraged. His sword blade lengthened once more, and he headbutted the attacker, shouting, "You bastard!!!"]

And so, under the watchful eyes of Angra Mainyu, the two people with completely opposite stances continued to fight back and forth, with Shirou Emiya spitting out a large amount of blood.

At this moment, the swords around Shirou Emiya grew increasingly dense, and even his face began to sprout blades. "Yes, I see. We all consider ourselves sinners. To rid ourselves of this thought, we uphold this belief to the very end. How could we possibly back down?"

"I confess... this is actually also a form of displaced anger," Kirei Kotomine said, revealing his true thoughts.

[And so, the two of them simultaneously took a step forward, throwing their final punches with unwavering conviction, but Kirei Kotomine's fist stopped right in front of Shirou Emiya.]

"I never imagined it would only be a little short in time... You are the last Master now, shoulder your responsibility." Kirei Kotomine finished speaking and collapsed.

"The heart was already polluted by the black mud, and it's just pretending to be strong now. It seems that it has finally reached the end."

Seeing this, people from other worlds are starting to have trouble understanding Kirei Kotomine; he really is a rather contradictory person.

Knowing that one's true nature is evil, yet still having to act to maintain a certain image because of one's social standing—this is living for the "audience."

He subconsciously judges how the audience perceives him, and then reacts according to the surrounding environment, while he himself is without thought or purpose.

Soon he will lose himself and fall into nihilism, nothing can stimulate him, he will become a puppet without a self and have almost no emotional experience.

Type-Moon Fate/Zero World

"Hahaha, what a show this king has been watching! Kirei Kotomine, I knew I hadn't misjudged you." Seeing this, Gilgamesh burst into laughter, completely out of place with the atmosphere.

Kirei Kotomine understood what he had told him: it is human nature to seek pleasure and gratification.

Kirei Komine, purely for his own pleasure, wanted to bring evil into the world. Thus, these two people, standing on opposite sides, fought each other to determine the victor, much like in the Colosseum of ancient Rome.

This 983 also gave this oldest chuunibyou king of 983 a different feeling, making him feel very happy.

After Kirei Kotomine collapsed, Shirou Emiya continued to stumble toward Angra Mainyu, clutching his left hand. "This... is the last time."

"Projection manufacturing..."

"Is this all there is to it?" At that moment, Shirou Emiya suddenly stopped, pressing his left hand tightly against his chest, the image of his own death in that desolate wasteland flashing through his mind.

"No... Shirou won't die." Illya's voice came from beside him. Illya, dressed in a white robe, appeared at his side. "I'll come and close this door."

Illya seemed to be walking on thin air, striding forward before stopping, turning around, and smiling at Shirou Emiya: "No matter what kind of life form it takes, after all, this is real magic!"

[Emiya Shirou's tears flowed uncontrollably. He wanted to stop her, but didn't know what to say... "Don't... worry about it... don't worry about it, come back!!"]

"Damn it... name... name... I can't remember..." His mind kept telling him to stop Ilya, but he just couldn't recall her name.

“You said that a brother should save his sister. I’m Shirou’s older sister! So of course I have to protect my little brother.” Illya turned and smiled at him one last time before walking towards the light.

Tears streamed down Shirou's face as he finally called out that name. "Illya...Illya...Illya!!!"

[In a burst of light, Ilya saw a familiar figure, and joyfully ran forward to hug Irisviel.]
