After entering March, the temperature has increased significantly.

Soon, cherry blossoms will be in full bloom across the island nation.

It was at this time that the ratings, which had not fluctuated much for a long time, finally ushered in its second spring. After the seventh episode was broadcast, the ratings for episodes eight and nine continued to rise.

Although the increase is not very large, the average ratings have reached the level of 20%, and every decimal point breakthrough is regarded as a huge leap forward.

This situation made many people in TV Asahi who had been paying attention to the ratings quietly heave a sigh of relief.

After all, after the fourth episode was broadcast, the ratings curve, as Emiya had talked with Ryota before, tended to be flat. The average ratings of each episode were basically stable at around 21%, without much fluctuation.

.

Although this kind of achievement is indeed very good, a few years ago, when Shuji Suzuki was the dominant player, it would have occupied a place.

But people.

It is always better to hope that the curve rises a little higher.

Therefore, the outbreak of the epidemic once again put smiles on the faces of the leaders who were worried about gains and losses. Many of them even called Emiya several times and said that they would give priority to them if they were looking for a partner next time. Asahi

The TV station will never disappoint Emiya.

certainly.

To Emiya, these things were just polite words.

When working with capitalists, the most important thing is the immediate benefits.

Only under this premise can both sides have room for friendly exchanges.

So, it's okay to retaliate with some polite words, but if you really take it seriously, I'm afraid I won't even know how you died in the future.

"Supervisor Emiya, Mr. Mingren's preparations have been made. He asked what can he do to start filming?"

"Okay, wait another ten minutes and wait for the special effects team to test it again before we can start."

In the shooting base.

A shout interrupted Emiya's thoughts.

He raised his head and looked at the shooting base, which had been transformed into another scene similar to the war-torn Middle East, with desolate and cruel scenes after projection.

In the center of the field, Qianzi Mingren changed out of his red clothes and put on a black undershirt, standing there with a solemn expression.

Wei Gong didn't know what his father said to Qianzi Mingren half a month ago.

But when I saw Qianzi Mingren again.

Wei Gong discovered that Qianzi Mingren seemed to have undergone some inexplicable changes.

Even one afternoon.

Qianzi Mingren took the initiative to propose to Emiya to use the second system for filming.

The result shocked a certain Jin Pika who saw the joke.

Thousand Sons Mingren successfully projected the Infinity Sword System in one go.

"...Anyway, this is a good thing for the crew, especially the following plot, which is the home field of Brother Mingren. If he is not in good condition, the entire crew will be in a state of stagnation.

.”

Unlike the original work, Archer's experiences during his lifetime were only briefly skipped in a few scenes.

Emiya considered that in this world, there are no games with the theme of the moon as a basis. If the treatment of Archer's life experience is too simple, the final result of the audience may only be confused.

Especially the scene where the nuclear power plant signs a contract with the restraint force.

People who don’t know, might think something happened.

Therefore, for these reasons, Emiya decided to make a separate episode about Archer's life experience.

With this foreshadowing, the plot of the duel between Archer and Emiya Shirou will become more in-depth.

"Um?"

Emiya, who was walking towards the monitor, suddenly felt that Qianzi Mingren seemed to be glancing in his direction.

I don't know if it's an illusion.

Wei Gong always felt that Qianzi Mingren was always watching him consciously or unconsciously these days.

"This feeling seems to have first appeared when Brother Mingren was able to use the second system."

Emiya frowned, looking thoughtful.

He really didn't know what Qianzi Mingren wanted to do.

I wanted to ask several times.

But Qianzi Mingren avoided it in a very clever way.

It's really strange.

"I heard from my dad that after the filming here is finished, Brother Mingren seems to be going back to Tokyo? Could it be that he is a little reluctant to leave everyone and us as a crew? In this case, we should think more carefully about the farewell party.

Already…”

at this time.

A crisp voice suddenly sounded from my ears.

"What are you thinking about? How serious are you?"

"Um?"

Emiya raised his head and saw the black-haired girl with twin tails smiling slyly at him.

"cold…"

"Well, don't tell me yet, let me guess."

Tohsaka Rin clasped his hands behind his back, with a smile like a little devil on his face: "Is it because of what happened tonight?"

"Tonight?"

Emiya looked confused.

"...You guy, hey, you are worthy of it." Tohsaka Rin rolled his eyes at Emiya: "It's time for the tenth episode to air tonight."

"So what..."

In the middle of his words, Wei Gong suddenly remembered something quite important.

The tenth episode aired tonight, the main plot is about my sister.

"It seems that you have finally remembered. After tonight, your reputation will be resounding throughout the island country in another way." Rin Tosaka patted Emiya's shoulder lightly, covered his mouth and said with a smile: "

So, celebrate, Emiya, you will easily be able to do things that others cannot do in their lifetime."

"..."

Emiya suddenly felt a little pain in his head.

Although I really want to say that I am not the culprit of writing about Illya, I am actually a victim to a certain extent.

but……

No one wants to believe it.

Now I have to bear all the blame alone.

So tired.

I need a favor from Uncle Tokiomi.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Emiya felt that he was somehow going further and further down the path of the old thief...

"Hey, why do Illya have so many fans? I remember that a few days ago, TV Asahi held an event and conducted a ranking of popular characters. As a result, Illya, who has not appeared in more than a month, won directly.

He took the top three spots, and his popularity even surpassed that of my brother, which is really strange."

The temperature in Kobe City today was more than ten degrees, but Emiya Shirou didn't feel a chill rushing to his heart even though he was indoors.

He tightened his coat.

After looking around, he said something to himself.

"It seems that in the past two days, I have been wearing a mask or a hat when going out. Well, in this case, I feel safer..."

at the same time.

The discussion on the Internet continues to increase with the continued high-energy plot in the second half of the season.

From Saber being taken away by the rare witch Medea, to Archer's unexpected 'rebellion', every plot gives people the feeling that a storm is about to come.

As an employee of Videoresearch, Kazuki Ishimura took a day off today and said goodbye to the group of brothers on the first floor of the company who "shared weal and woe". He planned to enjoy the next visual feast at home in this comfortable environment.

"It's still early, let's check the message first before talking."

Kazuki Ishimura opened the 2CH forum on his mobile phone and clicked on the messages and private messages in his background.

Although he is not very active on the forum, a few weeks ago, he became quite a celebrity on the forum with a post that boldly speculated on the Fourth Holy Grail War based on a few meticulous details.
