Cast[edit]

Main characters[edit]

Shirou Emiya (衛宮 士郎Emiya Shirō)

Voiced by: Noriaki Sugiyama (Japanese); Bryce Papenbrook^[13] (English)

The main character of the trilogy and the master of Saber. Shirō is a survivor of the Fourth Holy Grail War and is adopted by the magus Kiritsugu Emiya. Following in the footsteps of his adoptive father, Shirō decides to be a hero of justice. As the story progresses, he falls in love with his friend Sakura and, after learning of her past, ultimately forsakes his ideals to protect her - despite the risk she poses to Fuyuki. He later bonds with Illya and loses his left arm protecting her from the Shadow, resulting in the dying Archer transplanting his own arm to save him.

Sakura Matou (間桐 桜Matō Sakura)

Voiced by: Noriko Shitaya (Japanese); Cristina Vee^[13] (English)

The main heroine and the driving force of the story. She is Shirō's long time friend and the true master of Rider. She has been visiting his house very frequently since they met and helps him the house work, especially when it comes to cooking. Sakura endures an abusive relationship with her brother, even though she tries to hide it. She is later revealed to be Rin's younger sister, given to the Matou family by Rin's father as magi families are only allowed one heir each. She was then converted by Zōken into an artificial Grail Vessel, meant to subvert the Heaven's Feel system - and unwittingly connecting her to the corruption in the Grail, which manifests through her as an entity called 'the Shadow.' She eventually becomes Shirō's lover but, as her sanity erodes, she tries to protect him by leaving. After snapping and killing Shinji, the Shadow corrupts and fuses with her.

Rider (ライダーRaida)

Voiced by: Yuu Asakawa (Japanese); Melissa Fahn^[13] (English)

Just like Saber was the focus in Fate and Archer was in Unlimited Blade Works, Rider is the servant protagonist in Heaven's Feel. She is Shinji's servant, summoned to fight for him in the Fifth Holy Grail War. Rider bonds with Sakura and seeks to protect her from her abusive family. Rider's identity is revealed to be Medusa, the Gorgon monster of Greek myth. After Sakura is revealed as her true master, Shinji permanently loses his contract to her and Rider exclusively defends Sakura. She later moves into the Emiya household with Sakura and Shirō, acting as its guardian in place of Saber. Eventually becoming the only surviving Servant outside Zōken's control, Rider is ordered by Sakura's final Command Spell to protect Shirō before succumbing to the Shadow.

Illyasviel von Einzbern (イリヤスフィール・フォン・アインツベルンIriyasufīru fon Aintsuberun)

Voiced by: Mai Kadowaki (Japanese); Stephanie Sheh^[13] (English)

The secondary heroine. She is one of the seven participants of the Fifth Holy Grail War and the master of Berserker. She plays a vital role in the war and seems to have a past relationship with Kiritsugu Emiya, Shirō's adoptive father. At first, Illya appears to be an enemy to Shirō and Rin but later became very close to the former, forming a sibling-like bond with him. Following the destruction of her castle and the loss of Berserker, Illya takes shelter with Shirō and Sakura.

Rin Tohsaka (遠坂 凛Tōsaka Rin)

Voiced by: Kana Ueda (Japanese); Mela Lee^[13] (English)

Rin is a model student and idol of Shirō's school. She is one of the seven participants of the Fifth Holy Grail War, being the master of Archer. Even though she starts as an adversary, Rin is Shirō's most prominent ally during the story, as both the one to revive him from Lancer's deathblow and the one who introduces him to the world of the magus. Rin and Sakura tend to keep an eye on each-other from afar, due to the fact they are actually sisters, but eventually Sakura's unstable state makes Rin consider killing her to protect Fuyuki. When Shirō refuses to let Sakura die, Rin briefly dissolves their alliance but is forced to rejoin him after losing Archer to the Shadow.

Saber (セイバーSeibā, lit. 'Saber')

Voiced by: Ayako Kawasumi (Japanese); Kari Wahlgren^[13] (English)

Saber is Shirō's Servant for the Fifth Holy Grail War. Loyal, independent, and reserved, Saber acts coldly but is actually suppressing her emotions to focus on her goals. Her class is considered the 'Most Outstanding', with excellent ratings in all categories. Since her Master cannot effectively provide her with Mana, she minimizes her activity to preserve her energy. Saber is frustrated by Shirō's 'protective' tendencies, believing his erratic and reckless behavior will jeopardize their chances of winning the Holy Grail War. She ultimately is devoured by the Shadow during her fight with True Assassin and, while trapped inside it, is confronted by a tainted copy of herself.

Saber Alter (セイバー・オルタナティブSeibā Orutanatibu, lit.'Saber Alternative')

Voiced by: Ayako Kawasumi (Japanese); Kari Wahlgren^[13] (English)

A black-clad, corrupted version of Saber that confronts the original within the Shadow, bearing inverted morals and a cold, nihilistic disposition. She is the embodiment of Saber's darker nature, born from the despair she experienced in both her life and in the previous Holy Grail War. She becomes an antagonist for the second and third film, serving as the primary enforcer of the Shadow. With the tainted Grail's immense power and her sense of restraint gone, she is strong enough to face even Berserker head-on.

Zoken Matō (間桐 臓硯Matō Zōken)

Voiced by: Masane Tsukayama (Japanese); Michael Donovan^[13] (English)

Zōken is a shrewd, powerful, and ancient sorcerer who is patriarch of the Matō family and is known to be the grandfather of Shinji and Sakura. He is the primary antagonist of Heaven's Feel. He was originally a Russian magus under the name Zolgen Makiri and one of the original three Magi to propose the Heaven's Feel Holy Grail system, being the designer of the Command Seals. He has amassed a large and extensive library of sorcery knowledge, yet his lessons are strict and harsh. Zōken considers Shinji to be a disgrace of a sorcerer, believing Sakura may have more potential than her brother. He is the master of True Assassin and later manipulates the Shadow to control Saber.

Shinji Matō (間桐 慎二Matō Shinji)

Voiced by: Hiroshi Kamiya (Japanese); Kyle McCarley^[13] (English)

The supposed master of Rider and Sakura's older brother. A very vain and self-assured person who prides himself as being an equal to Rin. He was once a good friend of Shirō's, but became more distant after Sakura started spending her time with the latter. He is later ousted as a false Master, as his spellbook is burned and Rider returns to her true Master; Sakura. After Rider permanently dissolves their contract and leaves him, Shinji attempts to blackmail Sakura into leaving Shirō with knowledge of his abusing her, causing Sakura to lash out and kill him.

True Assassin (真アサシンShin Asashin)

Voiced by: Tetsu Inada (Japanese); Patrick Seitz^[13] (English)

Summoned by Zōken Mato, bursting out from within Assassin's flesh when Zōken uses the dying Servant's body as the catalyst to summon him. True Assassin manages to defeat Lancer by blindsiding him while the spearman is occupied by the Shadow, gouging his heart out and devouring it in order to increase his own mental acuity. He uses this same tag-team method to defeat Saber. Though she succeeds in slashing right arm off before he can remove her heart, it proves in vain as he manages to re-attach the limb while Saber is ultimately devoured by the Shadow. He attempts to kill Shirō immediately after but is defeated by Rider, who comes to Shirō's defense. After Berserker is defeated, he is ordered to abduct Illya but is injured and driven off by Archer.

Kirei Kotomine (言峰 綺礼Kotomine Kirei)

Voiced by: Joji Nakata (Japanese); Crispin Freeman^[13] (English)

The church priest and the mediator of the Fifth Holy Grail War. He is close to Rin as her personal mentor since her father's death. He is the master of Lancer and a former participant of the previous Holy Grail War, where he fought Shirō's father Kiritsugu. He later saves Sakura's life after her powers go out of control, as he is curious to see how far Shirō will go to protect her.

Supporting characters[edit]

Archer (アーチャーĀchā)

Voiced by: Junichi Suwabe (Japanese); Kaiji Tang^[13] (English)

Servant of Rin. He is injured early in the war by Saber, forcing Rin to sacrifice the second of her three Command Spells to save him and form a truce with Shirō. Archer harbors a desire to kill Shirō, but abandons his goal when he learns of what contaminated the Grail. He is then mortally wounded protecting Rin, Illya and Shirō from the Shadow, though he lives just long enough to graft his left arm onto Shirō after the latter loses his own.

Berserker (バーサーカーBāsākā)

Voiced by: Tadahisa Saizen (Japanese); Michael McConnohie^[13] (English)

Servant of Illyasviel von Einzbern. As a powerful brute, he is nearly unstoppable. Waiting for Shirō and Rin to exit the church, he takes this opportunity to attack them. Saber intervenes and is almost defeated by him until Shirou takes a hard blow for Saber. Due to Illyasviel's confusion, they leave. When Zouken confronts Illya, Berserker fights and is ultimately overpowered by the blackened Saber Alter, shortly before he is consumed by the Shadow.

Gilgamesh (ギルガメッシュGirugamesshu)

Voiced by: Tomokazu Seki (Japanese); David Earnest^[13] (English)

Unknown to everyone, Gilgamesh is a servant. Seemingly out of nowhere, he pops up into the church while Shirou talks to Kirei. He is later seen standing in front of Sakura, chatting to her. Eventually he attempts to kill Sakura, but she manifests the Shadow and commands it to devour him, resulting in his death.

Taiga Fujimura (藤村 大河Fujimura Taiga)

Voiced by: Miki Itou (Japanese); Julie Ann Taylor^[13] (English)

Shirō's homeroom teacher and legal guardian following Kiritsugu's passing, whom Shirō regards as an older sister. She is aware of how close Shirō is to Sakura and encourages - or occasionally teases - him to be more open to her about it. She later comforts Sakura when she worries about Shirō and unwittingly helps Illya to forgive Kiritsugu.

Caster (キャスターKyasutā)

Voiced by: Atsuko Tanaka (Japanese); Megan Hollingshead^[13] (English)

Servant of Souichirou Kuzuki. First seen in Ryuudou Temple with her master. She leaves to go check on Assassin who is watching the gate. When arriving, she sees his sword at the bottom of the steps as it disappears. She returns to the temple as she sees her master maimed by True Assassin. Threatening to kill her master, she is told to use her Noble Phantasm, Rule Breaker, on herself. After doing so, True Assassin stabs her and kills Souichirou. Zoken's bugs drag her body away, later to be reanimated and used to fight against Shirō, Rin, and Saber.

Souichirou Kuzuki (葛木 宗一郎Kuzuki Sōichirō)

Voiced by: Kazuhiro Nakata (Japanese); Lex Lang (English)

Master of Caster. A teacher at Homurahara Academy, the school where Shirō, Sakura, and Shinji attend. Meeting Caster at Ryuudou Temple, he is sliced up by True Assassin. As his limbs and head are cut but not severed, he is used as leverage for True Assassin against Caster. He is later killed once Caster uses Rule Breaker on herself.

Assassin (アサシンAsashin)

Voiced by: Shin-ichiro Miki (Japanese); Todd Haberkorn^[13] (English)

Servant of Caster. When first shown, Assassin has dropped his sword down the steps of Ryuudou Temple. Bloodied and on the ground, True Assassin explodes out of his body. Later, his body disappears into a shadow.

Lancer (ランサーRansā)

Voiced by: Nobutoshi Canna (Japanese); Tony Oliver^[13] (English)

Servant of Kirei Kotomine. Obeying orders from his master, he follows Zoken to the Ryuudou Temple, where Caster is located. He sees True Assassin killing Caster as well as her Master. He pursues True Assassin through the city and to a lake, where he falls for True Assassin's trap. The Shadow holds Lancer down long enough for True Assassin to gouge out and consume his heart before the Shadow finishes him off.

Sella (アサシンSera)

Voiced by: Haruhi Nanao (Japanese); Julia McIlvaine^[13] (English)

One of Illyasviel's retainers. She is staunchly protective of Illya and often chastises her companion Leysritt's behavior.

Leysritt (リーゼリットRīzeritto)

Voiced by: Miho Miyagawa (Japanese); Brianna Knickerbocker^[13] (English)

One of Illysviel's retainers. She is far more relaxed then her companion Sella, often earning a rebuke from the former.

Voiced by: Miho Miyagawa (Japanese); Robbie Daymond^[13] (English)

A friend of Shirō's and the student body president of his school. His father is the head priest of Ryūdō Temple, where he and the other monks are left unconscious after True Assassin's attack on Caster and Kuzuki. Issei is later questioned by Rin in the hospital while mourning Kuzuki, whom he respected greatly.

Ayako Mitsuzuri (美綴 綾子Ayako Mitsuzuri)

Voiced by: Mizusawa Fumie (Japanese); Brina Palencia^[13] (English)

The captain of the archery dojo and senior to Shirō, who often wishes him to return to archery after his injury.

Critical reception[edit]

Presage Flower[edit]

Niki lauda. Kim Morrissy from Anime News Network gave Presage Flower an overall grade of 'A', calling it a fine work of cinema and the best Fate adaptation yet.^[24] As the movie focused more on Sakura, the Fandom Post stated that her interactions with Shirou make the best scenes since Shirou's personality did not differ too much from Unlimited Blade Works.^[25] In another review, the Fandom Post enjoyed how Shirou's posttraumatic stress disorder over the fire in his city is shown connecting the story with the ending of Fate/Zero, thus exploring deeper area of his past. While the writer enjoyed his interactions with Sakura and Saber, he did not find him as engaging as the Shirou from Unlimited Blade Works persona.^[26] UK Anime Network criticized his traits, finding them 'bland,' but they also thought that the anime adaptation was able to properly capture Nasu's writing.^[27]

Kim Morrissy from Anime News Network also listed it as the best film from 2017.^[28]

Lost Butterfly[edit]

Kim Morrissy from Anime News Network gave Lost Butterfly an overall grade of 'A', calling Lost Butterfly 'even better than the first film', and that the film 'amped up the stakes considerably'.^[29]
