| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) | comment |
Fate/hollow ataraxia is the fandisc pseudo-sequel to Fate/stay night and one of numerous works that take place in the Nasuverse. It is based on an unusual version of events: The Grail War has ended, Kotomine and Gilgamesh have been defeated and all is well. Only... all the Servants are still around and everyone seems to be alive. Well, okay, reasonable enough if you can't follow just one ending. But it's not that simple: Apparently thanks to Tohsaka's attempts to create a magical item based on dimensional hopping, all the different continuities have been mingled including ones we never saw. So what really happened and what's going on?And that's not all there is to it. While Shirou and the Servants and Masters are leading their oddly domestic lives together, something darker is going on. Strange beasts are spotted and an unfamiliar magus appears to have restarted the Heavens Feel. That said, none of the Servants seem to actually care since they've settled into their new lives. Yet while this is going on, time seems to be looping in an odd manner, lasting four days before the world resets back to the first day with no apparent sign of any continuity between cycles.On top of all that, no one seems to have informed Bazett Fraga McRemitz that the Fifth Grail War ended six months ago. She's not really sure why, but rather than the Servant she intended to summon she seems to have ended up with someone... darker. Meet the eighth Servant whose identity was only hinted at in the first installment: Avenger, the Spirit of Vengeance. Avenger seems completely psychopathic but utterly weak... but is that really all there is to it?After years in Development Hell, a finalized and complete Fan Translation was finally released in November 2014. Please do not add details that relate to Fate/stay night and reserve this page for those dealing only with this story.An Updated Re-release was also released in Japan in November 2014 for the Play Station Vita, with anime cutscenes done by ufotable and full voice acting. The unlockable minigames in the original were also given an update, as well as the addition of a full-fledged Tower Defense/spoof game titled Capsule Servant. | |

Look Behind You | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_112f8ee1 | comment |
Look Behind You: Shirou proclaims that there's a giant cake outside the school while being chased around by Sella and Leysritt so he can get them out of his hair. Sella immediately falls for it, rambling about what kind of traits it should have before going into a tangent about an alleged cake monster that attacked Athens in ancient times. It takes Leysritt to point out that this was a lie. | |

Instant Expert | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_13f7da6 | comment |
The Kaleidostick. An 11-year-old Rin wanted to be a better singer and used the Mystic Code to temporarily give herself the skills of a "Tohsaka Rin who's good at singing" from a parallel world. Ruby fulfilled this wish by granting Rin with the skills and personality of an Alternate Self of hers who happened to be a super Genki Girl Idol Singer. While in her "Prism Trance", Rin hijacked a live performance in a nearby park and sung for the surprised audience "like an idol from the eighties". Rin is very bitter about this and the fact she had to reset her network of friends in middle school because no kid had the guts to speak to her afterwards. | |

All There in the Manual | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
Rider gets a little bit of it — F/HA rather implies, logically, that most of her actual career as guardian of the Shapeless Isle was in the form we know Rider in today, that when she was a "child" she looked much more like her sisters (character material guides would provide an illustration of this), and that when she went "full Gorgon" and murdered her sisters, she was kind of a pillar of snakes. Grand Order would go on to expand on this, both showing how "Rider" was more like a Lancer early in her career, how her outfit and appearance in that period was much different than that of her sisters, and showing that her Gorgon form was more complicated than just the snake pillar we briefly see, though that is part of Avenger Gorgon's Noble Phantasm. | |

Bridal Carry | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_187228e0 | comment |
Bridal Carry: Shirou does this twice for Tohsaka. The first time at school after she collapsed because her Magic Crest started to act up and he carried to the infirmary so she could rest. This gathered something of an audience and some gossip about them. The second time happened at her place the next day, after she lost consciousness during a phone conversation with Shirou as her condition worsened. He panicked at the idea that an enemy could have attacked her while alone just like late in the Fate route of the original visual novel. He ran to her house, finding her half-conscious on her sofa and he ended up carrying her to the bedroom. The newlywed imagery didn't go unmentioned. | |

The Devil: Subverted. Avenger states that his identity is that of Angra Manyu, but that he is not the demon god of legend. Rather, it's just a title that was given to him when his old name was taken away. He says he would rather be the god of something more mundane like pots or something since he isn't that special. | |

Mutual Envy | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_1df0cf05 | comment |
Mutual Envy: Saber and Rider admit as much when they see each other in their swimsuits at the pool. Saber admires Rider's perfect mature beauty, which makes a lot of sense once you consider that even in life she was stuck at an adolescent age. Rider's Internalized Categorism about what's cute and what isn't is such that she truly doesn't consider herself beautiful and has something of a ramped-up Huge Schoolgirl complex, instead admiring petite and youthful beauties like Saber. | |

Back-to-Back Badasses: Assassin and Souichirou in the final battle and the opening sequence by Ufotable. Both a group of the Association's Enforcers and the Church's Executors were sent to stop the same magus that was using corpses in an attempt to revive the soul. All but one of each group were wiped out and they decided to cooperate in order to survive despite the fact each of their organizations is the other's ideological antithesis. This is how Bazett and Kirei Kotomine met. | |

Black Comedy | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_222dc873 | comment |
Black Comedy: Shirou and Shinji finding Sakura's diary, which details Sakura's crappy everyday life with Shinji and Zouken. It's obviously terrible considering what we know from stay night, but then her diary talks about how Shinji has been acting bratty towards Sakura (like throwing away the food she cooked because something about "commoners, commoners, commoners" or eating it all and leaving nothing for her or generally just having bad manners) or Zouken complaining about how he should've picked her older sister (including one occasion where he was pressing his buzzer in the middle of the night while half-awake and he was sleeptalking about this), playing pranks on the new housekeeper until she cries, or barfing in his sleep, while each entry gets progressively more bitter over more minor contrivances like Zouken leaving one grain of rice uneaten or Shinji having bad posture while he eats. It almost makes you think that this is a comedy show about a little girl having to be the adult in her family while her older brother gets to be a dick and her grandpa is a whiny old dude. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Sakura gives an almost perfect description of Akiha and even says the person she's talking about is named Tohno. She's actually talking about Tohsaka, but it's amusing nonetheless. There's also a scene called Kagetsu Tohya, though it has little relation to that story. Neko-Arc is also referenced as the title of a completely nonsensical movie that is currently showing. Saber likes takoyaki. Or at least she does until she finds out they're made of octopi due to tentacle-related reasons. | |

Verbal Tic | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_26d1f65f | comment |
Verbal Tic: Normally averted, but when the crowd gets a hold of some Einzbern spirits, each drinker gets a verbal tic based on their preferred animal. Rin talks like a cat-nya and Saber like a lion-gao. In general, though, at least in the original Japanese, one can reliably distinguish almost every character simply by their natural speaking patterns, without needing to involve a lot of odd speech or particles (Himuro's odd use of archaic honorifics notwithstanding). | |

Limited Wardrobe: Almost everyone has, at most, two sets of clothes (typically school, armor, armor/casual, or school uniform/casual, or in Illya's case, cold-weather/normal). Other non-standard outfits are Dark Sakura, Illya's Dress of Heaven, Rin's bedclothes, and the occasional birthday suit. Lampshaded in the Developer's Room where the staff apologizes to Illya for giving her exactly one new outfit: her swimsuit. | |

Undead Tax Exemption | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_2d407620 | comment |
Undead Tax Exemption: Averted. As summoned individuals, Servants have no legal identity nor employment history. Rider and Lancer get around this by holding part-time jobs, Archer simply Projects whatever he needs and remains in Spirit Form the rest of the time, Gilgamesh is just so filthy rich that can throw money at any problem he may have, and Assassin and Berserker are unable to interact with regular people in the first place. Caster is a special case who actually had to buy a forged identity from the "supervising young lady", while pointing out that it didn't come cheap, so she and Kuzuki could get married. Saber… well, Saber basically embraced her Pretty Freeloader-ness and a scene has Rider and Caster shooting potshots at her for it. Most of Bazett's ending and epilogue content discusses the fact that she's considered legally dead by the Association and wants to figure out a way to secure employment in normal society. The others point out that she doesn't actually need to bother when she has literal suitcases full of cash lying around from her old job to provide a cushion for her, but dammit, it's the principle of the thing! | |

Sadly Mythtaken | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_2ec87029 | comment |
Sadly Mythtaken: Fate in general takes a fairly Broad Strokes approach to mythology, but there's at least one outright mistake: Rin wonders if Saber's Idiot Hair is her "reverse scale", so she cuts it off to see what will happen, resulting in Saber transforming into her Alter form. However, reverse scales are only a feature of East Asian dragons — a scale on the underside of their chins that causes the normally benevolent Eastern dragon to go berserk if agitated — while Saber was infused with the blood of a Western dragon. Although this one could be chalked up to Rule of Funny. | |

Older Than They Look: Saber, who is said to look a couple of years younger than Shirou, but is actually around seven years his senior due to the age-stopping effect of Avalon when possessed by its rightful owner. Gilgamesh also appears in child form, and Illya is a homunculus with 'unusual growth patterns' that make her look around ten. | |

The first two are explained from having emotional connections to Avenger as his Master and his love interest, but he's surprised the third can actually see him as someone besides a shadowy silhouette. He chalks it up to their similar natures at that moment. | |

Noodle Incident | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_3c0a4666 | comment |
Noodle Incident: The scene where Shirou and Rin get trapped in Zelretch's chest and try to call for help by phone provides several when they end up contacting people from parallel worlds. Like whatever Shirou's Alternate Self did to become Sickeningly Sweethearts with his version of Rin, or how another ended up working with Luvia, or whatever happened to make that version of her and Rin jump off the Tower of London together while on the run from the Clock Tower. In a rare not-totally-hostile moment, Archer advises Shirou to avoid sightseeing with "you-know-who" in bridges "that might have songs written about them" and that "it's be to [Shirou's] benefit to train [himself] into a really good swimmer". The implication is that something happened in Archer's past that could still happen in Shirou's future involving Rin, London Bridge and having to swim in the cold waters of the River Thames in winter. If "Tower of London" and "London Bridge" means "Tower Bridge" in this context, it's possible that this Noodle Incident is the same than the one above with Luvia and Rin. Shirou's part-time work boss, Neko, and his teacher/legal guardian, Taiga are friends but only discovered they were mutually acquainted with Shirou one year ago prior to this game when Taiga asked Shirou to fetch some sake. He went to his workplace since he figured they would look the other way at selling liquor to an employee not of legal drinking age. What went down that day when the two met through Shirou was apparently quite nasty and would have been even worse had Shirou not intervened. | |

Bad Date | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_3cb287ce | comment |
Bad Date: While we don't get to see it first hand, Shirou and Rin's first real date after the Holy Grail War was a shining example of Murphy's Law. While their dinner at a fancy restaurant went off without a hitch, their plans for a redo of their less-than-ideal first time during the Unlimited Blade Works route certainly didn't. They reserved a luxurious room in a Western-styled hotel, but Rin's Hopelessness With Tech kicked in and she messed up the AC setting and somehow destroyed the remote control in the process, leaving the couple stuck in a too-cold room for any kind of romantic mood. They persisted, but then Shirou accidentally tore open a small scented pouch that Rin sewn to her clothesLong story short she has to take medicine for her Magic Crest that makes her exude a distinctive herbal smell she's self-conscious about and she hides it with perfume, releasing the chemicals to the air and saturating the room with the odors of the undiluted compounds. Amazingly, they still managed to get it on that night — no survivor of the Holy Grail War is a quitter, you see. The third attempt doesn't start very well either but is ultimately far more successful. | |

Then they hear Taiga approaching the room and he freaks out at the prospect of their Unwitting Muggle Friend seeing Saber in her magical Battle Ballgown and pushes the latter into the closet. For a moment it seems like his fast-thinking is working until Taiga points to Saber's usual clothes neatly folded into a pile (from when she tried her swimsuit on) and gets the idea that something a lot less wholesome was just happening. Needless to say, Hilarity Ensues. In the Eclipse scene, Shirou and Sakura remember one time they were, ahem, together in his bedroom when Rider suddenly came in at midnight with no warning. Sakura reacted fast enough to hide in his closet before she noticed, but yeah… awkward. | |

DestructiveSavior | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_3f4ec001 | comment |
Destructive Savior: Illya's main contribution to the final battle is to run around Shirou's house and start smashing the place up with Berserker while killing monsters, not caring about the damage. Sakura even observes that she's not sure if Illya is even here to help. This is in spite of saving Sakura at the last minute from Avenger's Shades. | |

Flower Motifs | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_40cad744 | comment |
Flower Motifs: A white Hydrangea thematically connects the trio of new characters as a recurring motif. Caren's last name is derived from a different name for the same flower, Avenger plays with a sliding tile puzzle that depicts the flower when put together, and Bazett is depicted standing in her own field of hydrangeas. Both original and ufotable openings depict the hydrangea as a recurring visual element. It indicates Caren's importance to the two as Bazett's rescuer and Avenger's love interest. | |

"Not If They Enjoyed It" Rationalization | |

"Not If They Enjoyed It" Rationalization: Avenger rapes Caren, but this is not addressed much by either party, and they both seem to come out better people for it. Caren 'begins to consent' halfway through, and doesn't seem particularly upset about the encounter afterward. They even have a romantic and touching moment later on... | |

All of the heroines have somewhat of a jealous streak, so many a moment is killed by all of them. Like when Saber and Rider spied on Sakura's date with Shirou at the pool, and when Rider outright crashed on Rin's. | |

However, Yukika points out that it's not the kind of story you just tell casual acquaintances, something Ayako doesn't deny. | |

Alternate Continuity | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_450c5a85 | comment |
Alternate Continuity: Essentially all routes and endings of Fate/stay night have been mixed together. So for the final battle Saber beat Gilgamesh and Shirou killed Kotomine. However, Rin's command seal was the one used to destroy the Grail and Saber is still around. Just like HF, Sakura's free from Zouken's control, the great Second Sorcery was projected in Shirou's shed, among others. It follows on from the ultimate happy ending the original game never actually had. | |

Characterization Marches On | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_479f9ad0 | comment |
Characterization Marches On: Actually less than one might think — this is the game that helped flesh out all the "Stay Night Seven" after F/SN itself, and even solidified Angra's characterization for later appearances — but there's still a few odd examples that will stick out to newer fans in a post-Fate/Grand Order world. The biggest are Euryale & Stheno. Here, they're almost completely interchangeable, they both share the same outfit and nearly (but not quite) the same sprite and it's very difficult at times to differentiate one from the other; this is where, and why, they picked up the gimmick of referring to each other as "me". Grand Order would go on to differentiate their personalities and appearances significantly (Stheno being calm & collected and Euryale being energetic & flirty; Stheno's is closer to the personality both have in F/HA), and even give the two different classes (straight down to Euryale getting mixed up a bit with Eros and gaining Archer abilities). Rider gets a little bit of it — F/HA rather implies, logically, that most of her actual career as guardian of the Shapeless Isle was in the form we know Rider in today, that when she was a "child" she looked much more like her sisters (character material guides would provide an illustration of this), and that when she went "full Gorgon" and murdered her sisters, she was kind of a pillar of snakes. Grand Order would go on to expand on this, both showing how "Rider" was more like a Lancer early in her career, how her outfit and appearance in that period was much different than that of her sisters, and showing that her Gorgon form was more complicated than just the snake pillar we briefly see, though that is part of Avenger Gorgon's Noble Phantasm. We very briefly get a glimpse of Perseus at one point during Rider's flashbacks. The Perseus Rider that's been teased in Fate/Prototype material looks significantly different to the one in F/HA, though his appearances have been brief enough so far that it might just be him not having time to showcase his armor and whatnot. | |

Power Perversion Potential | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_4d070ee3 | comment |
Power Perversion Potential: Rin resorts to the same gravity-dampening spell she used to jump off a rooftop and over the security fence in Fate/stay night (and her father before her used to gently descend to his battle with Berserker's Master in Fate/Zero) during her Optional Sexual Encounter with Shirou. Her motive to cast it on herself is surprisingly un-perverted and pragmaticif you want details… In a Subversion of Idealized Sex, due to her inexperience Rin simply couldn't spare the concentration to not put too much weight on her elbow and Shirou's stomach while blowing him in a sixty-nine position.. Illya tries to use her Hypnotic Eyes to make Shirou agree to "become hers." Subverted when he remembers the time he almost fell for it in the Fate route and then he uses her words against her by asking her "if she would become his if she likes him", which leaves her a blushing mess. As in the Heaven's Feel route, Rider uses her Breaker Gorgon to give Shirou an Erotic Dream. This time, one about Sakura specifically intended to motivate him to be less restrained in bed so Sakura will feel less self-conscious of her overdeveloped libido. Think of it as an Intimate Psychotherapy scenario intended to Invoke another Intimate Psychotherapy scenario. This ends up backfiring spectacularly on Rider when Shirou counters her Noble Phantasm with a projection of the same, making her lose control of the dream to her subconscious, which spills the beans about the frankly huge crush she's got on the guy she had managed to keep secret from him until then. | |

Wham Shot: Shirou taking out his swords to fight monsters at Ryuudou Temple. They're not Kanshou and Bakuya, the signature weapons associated with him by way of Archer. They're the same swords Avenger wields when fighting with Bazett. Shirou and Avenger have not met at all, so this is the first blatant indication that something strange is going on behind the scenes between the two. | |

Jackass Genie: The Holy Grail, due to Angra Manyu's influence, will twist any wish made to it in a way that will kill or hurt as many humans as possible. The Servant Angra Manyu himself doesn't qualify: his will to realise truly one wish is why Bazett survives. The Kaleidostick. An 11-year-old Rin wanted to be a better singer and used the Mystic Code to temporarily give herself the skills of a "Tohsaka Rin who's good at singing" from a parallel world. Ruby fulfilled this wish by granting Rin with the skills and personality of an Alternate Self of hers who happened to be a super Genki Girl Idol Singer. While in her "Prism Trance", Rin hijacked a live performance in a nearby park and sung for the surprised audience "like an idol from the eighties". Rin is very bitter about this and the fact she had to reset her network of friends in middle school because no kid had the guts to speak to her afterwards. | |

Bucket Booby-Trap: Bazett sends Avenger to investigate a manor and her Servant gets splashed with a bucket of milk for that trouble, which she finds hilarious as Avenger gripes about the indignity. When Shirou and company go to clean up Rin's house, they find the bucket she set up to prank people who tried to come into her house while she's away had fallen some time ago to their amused confusion. This is a hint that Bazett and Shirou only narrowly avoided each other by operating at separate times in the day. | |

Unwanted Harem | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_71019994 | comment |
Unwanted Harem: The story does not have Shirou paired off with any one character. Instead, he now has Tohsaka, Saber and Sakura, plus Rider and Illya while Ayako and the three track girls also seem attracted to him to varying extents. A particularly entertaining scene opens up in Eclipse after you get 100% Completion, where Bazett and Caren both also try to move into the Emiya household, and each of the heroines vigorously protests. Averted with Bazett; even if the heroines protest about her moving in for a week, it's clear she's in love with Lancer. Caren, on the other hand, seems mildly taken with Shirou's resemblance to Avenger. This IS still an aversion, since it's mostly Avenger. | |

Bleached Underpants | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_72526173 | comment |
Bleached Underpants: Like the Realta Nua port of Fate/stay night, Hollow Ataraxia's Vita port removes all the naughty and erotic bits from the original PC port and either replaces them with much tamer, non-sexual alternate scenes, or heavily tones them down. Caren's rape at the hands of Avenger is replaced with a different scene that plays out similarly to Realta Nua's version of Sakura's love scenes from Heaven's Feel. | |

Idiot Hair | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_7289a350 | comment |
Rin wonders if Saber's Idiot Hair is her "reverse scale", so she cuts it off to see what will happen, resulting in Saber transforming into her Alter form. However, reverse scales are only a feature of East Asian dragons — a scale on the underside of their chins that causes the normally benevolent Eastern dragon to go berserk if agitated — while Saber was infused with the blood of a Western dragon. Although this one could be chalked up to Rule of Funny. | |

Infraction Distraction: An accidental example. When Rin searches through Shirou's room looking for his Porn Stash — see The Bet above — she and Saber find a risque magazine that turns out to be Shinji's. In the aftermath, Shirou silently thanks the heavens and Shinji that the girls stopped looking before finding his actual Porn Stash. | |

Will Not Tell a Lie | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_76c30df4 | comment |
Will Not Tell a Lie: Shirou says that he's learned that Servants generally never lie outright as a matter of pride. If you look back at Fate/stay night you'll see the evidence supports this conclusion. Even Archer, who says he has no pride at all, doesn't care for lying so much as being misleading. Of course, while they won't lie, there are other ways of keeping secrets. | |

Wacky Marriage Proposal: When Illya's head maid complains about the impropriety of her planning to have a day at the pool with Shirou, she nonchalantly declares him her "future consort" and says that should make it okay for him to escort her. Sella's eyes go red and glares at Shirou in barely-restrained impotent fury. | |

Merging the Branches | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_949291d1 | comment |
Merging the Branches: Fate/hollow ataraxia is a sequel, not an adaptation, but it essentially mashes together parts of all the routes in the original, while removing or ignoring things that would be contradictory or difficult to handle on a fandisc, such as most of the traumatic bits of Sakura's backstory mostly being glossed over. This is probably justified by Rin accidentally almost merging all realities a month before Ataraxia takes place, as well as the nature of the "Groundhog Day" Loop occurring in the story. | |

While he technically owns every legendary weapon, this is one of his few genuine Noble Phantasms and is the key to his treasury, allowing him to remove weapons, wealth, wine and divinity-sealing chains. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: All the horror stories told at the Ryuudou training camp come up in the plot. Saegusa's stories are about a woman's ghost on the second floor of a western mansion and a string-like thing hanging in the sky over Shinto. Rin dismisses the first as slander about her house, but it becomes a plot thread where Shirou finds out the house is real and investigates it. It's the house Bazett is operating out of. As a Brick Joke in the ending, Bazett thinks she'll play a prank on Rin and pretend to be a ghost. The second story is about the stairs Avenger must ascend in order to reach the Holy Grail. Rin and Mitsuzuri both talk about some figure on the Center Building roof of Shinto, with the former thinking of a shadow and the latter thinking of a red person. The shadow is Avenger trying to end the Holy Grail War and the red person is Archer sniping Shirou whenever he tries to cross the bridge. Himuro refers to a mirage in the Shinto sky. It's the Holy Grail that appears on the fourth night that Avenger/Shirou must figure out how to reach. Issei's story is not a direct plot point, but thematically relevant to the ending. His story ends with the moral that "only the living can revive the dead", as the dead working towards the same only creates more of its own kind and cannot bring others back to life. As a Servant, Angra Mainyu does not have the power to bring Bazett back to life and could only keep her in suspended animation before the brink of actually dying. It requires Caren, a living human, to come by and nurse her back to life. Avenger's efforts to keep her alive in the closed loop results in endless monstrous dead versions of himself being spawned with each cycle. He directly reminds Bazett of this at the very end before revealing Caren has kept her alive. While Avenger waits for Bazett to wake up on the first night, he spends most of his time playing with a simple sliding piece puzzle to occupy his time. Bazett wonders why Avenger is so fixated on it since he could have simply solved it ages ago if he was playing with it for so long. The puzzle represents the central conflict at the heart of the story as the various arrangements from sliding tiles around are all the possibilities that can be observed in Fuyuki. Leave it alone and nothing ever changes, like Bazett's eventual wish in the third act so she won't die. Keep playing with it, as Avenger does, and see everything that could happen in these four days. Or finish it and complete the picture, like how Avenger must return to the Holy Grail to bring everything to an end. Avenger is idly playing around in daytime and extends the War by doing so, like how he plays with the puzzle night after night. He leaves behind the completed puzzle at the very end as a symbolic gift to Bazett. | |

Filler: A large amount of scenes have little to do with the main plot. For example, scenes with Rider flirting with Shirou, developing the track girls from the school or slice of life with Sakura. The story takes a while to kick into gear on the Shirou side of the story, with actual plot events being tracked ingame. This is because the game is a fandisc mainly devoted to harem antics with Shirou and many a Fandom Nod. | |

Production Foreshadowing | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_9eca61c8 | comment |
Production Foreshadowing: Fate/Hollow Ataraxia was released more than a year prior to the publishing of the first issue of Fate/Zero, making any apparent Shout-Out to the latter an example of this trope instead. For specific examples: Fate/Zero logo appears as a movie poster when Shirou and Rider go to cinema. Illya and Sella drive the same Cool Car Irisviel brought with her to Fuyuki. Saber really hates creatures with tentacles, to the point she's disgusted to learn takoyaki contains octopi. The previous Servant Caster is to blame for it. Illya tells Shirou about how Kiritsugu used to cheat at their walnut counting game. The moment she figures this out is told in detail in the first Fate/Zero novel. Shirou mentions that Taiga's grandfather had him working on "that monstrosity of a motorcycle that [he] can't even lift if it were to fall." It seems Raiga picked up an interest in over-powered motorcycles after Kiritsugu arranged for the custom Yamaha V-Max Saber would ride in the final Fate/Zero novel. Sella the homunculus maid is mostly indifferent to humans, yet she goes out of her way to antagonize, belittle and Be as Unhelpful as Possible to Shirou despite Illya's orders. It's heavily implied that she's like that because Illya's interest in Kiritsugu's son is too reminiscent of Irisviel's devotion to her husband, something that didn't end up well neither for Illya's mother, nor for the Einzbern family as a whole. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: The appearances of Rider's sisters in her backstory, where they are initially shown bullying her terribly in scenes that are played for laughs, but then comes the harsh reminder that Medusa turned into a monster and devoured both of them. Her memories of being bullied by them are the fondest ones she has. A more light-hearted example from Rider's backstory is a grim scene of her stalking through her temple, examining the statues left by the warriors she's turned to stone over the years. She drives her chain-dagger weapon into two of them... then uses the stretched-out chain as a clothesline for hanging laundry on. An In-universe example occurs when the girls are swapping stories about growing up with their own elder siblings. Saber tells a fairly heartwarming story about her foster-brother Sir Kay. Sakura goes next. We don't actually hear her story, but it leaves everyone feeling "numb and lifeless." Shirou feels some apprehension about visiting the basement at Tohsaka's place, wondering what kind of magical rituals have took place in there. When he actually goes in, he instead finds a bunch of athletic equipment, like dumbbells, a punching bag and a kung-fu wooden dummy. | |

Familiar: All the Servants are a type of Familiar. Shirou wonders why Lancer is still around since his Master died. As established in Kagetsu Tohya only the most powerful familiars can stay alive even a little while after their master dies. Turns out he and Kid Gilgamesh have a new one. | |

Idealized Sex: Shirou and Rin's adorable "cat-pajamas" love-scene. It is for all intents and purposes a complete reversal of their very awkward sexual encounter from stay night; just about everything that went wrong back then, goes right here, and it ends up being a throughly enjoyable experience for both parties. | |

When Himuro — the girl with glasses from the track-and-field trio — comments about an ineffable discomfort she wake up to about how her own memories doesn't feel as familiar as they should (possibly due to the true nature of the "Groundhog Day" Loop), Shirou asked her if it was like "just waking up to find yourself turning into a bug." | |

The Bet | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_b5b4b485 | comment |
The Bet: Rin dragged Saber into a bet about whether Shirou has a Porn Stash in his room or not. Rin thought herself to be the winner when they find an adult magazine in an old candy box, but Shirou then enters the room, catching them red-handed and truthfully explains it actually belongs to Shinji. He left it behind during a visit and Shirou decided to store it away in his room so people wouldn't find the magazine by mistake. Rin tries to argue she didn't lose the bet by saying that they did find porn in Shirou's room even though it wasn't his, but Saber isn't having any of it and expect her payment in the form of dorayaki. Shirou's inner dialogue reveals that he does have a better hidden Porn Stash, but thankfully for him the girls ran into Shinji's magazine before finding it. | |

Sadistic Choice | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_babc974 | comment |
Sadistic Choice: Avenger and Bazett created a combo using the former's Noble Phantasm and the latter's Fragarach to put the enemy into a tricky situation; if they attack Avenger with a normal attack, he will just reflect the damage done to him back to them. If they choose to use their Noble Phantasm to kill Avenger before he can activate his own Noble Phantasm, that will just trigger Fragarach and kill them instead. While it isn't an unbeatable combo as the two can and do die in certain situations, the two are able to kill every participant of the 5th Holy Grail War at least once thanks to it. | |

No Romantic Resolution | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_bf00b603 | comment |
No Romantic Resolution: In this continuity Shirou does not seem to have settled down with anyone in particular, though sex scenes are still implied to have taken place. It should be noted that Hollow/Ataraxia is a mess when it comes to this. Some scenes - most notably, the pool dates - take place in scenarios where Shirou has clearly gotten together with a particular girl. The same applies to some other events that have a romantic nature, such as Shirou's date with Sakura at the castle, Rin inviting Shirou to have a drink with her, and Saber and Shirou discussing going on a trip together. It is even possible to, say, go on a pool date with Illya on the second day (and witness Shirou telling Illya they are going to show everyone the "power of their relationship") and then, on the final night, have dinner with Sakura at the Einzbern castle. | |

When Rider's long hair becomes too disheveled, she can fix it by shifting into Spirit Form and back, which resets it to its default form without having to go through all the hassle of combing it. Somewhat Subverted in that she doesn't resort to this much because she doesn't want to be a burden to Sakura who provides her with magical energy for something trivial like that. | |

Fan Disservice: Caren's eroscene. Angra Mainyu, in the form of Shirou, suddenly forces himself on her and rapes her, out of a combination of lust and raw sadism. The act causes her immeasurable pain because of the way her body reacts to demons, and she spends the entire scene trying to keep her body from violently erupting and killing him, with parts of her body being torn apart internally as she does so. She actually starts to enjoy it towards the end, but by then Angra Mainyu has reverted to his black beast form! | |

Shout-Out | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: When Shirou goes to clean Tohsaka's house alone while she's away, he remembers her joking that if he ever becomes her live-in apprentice, he'd have to sleep in the storage room under the stairs. Shirou then wonders whether he'd count as "some kind of boy wizard" in that case. In the scene where Shirou gets Amusing Injuries after being used as the rope in a non-romantic Lover Tug of War, the latter says: When Himuro — the girl with glasses from the track-and-field trio — comments about an ineffable discomfort she wake up to about how her own memories doesn't feel as familiar as they should (possibly due to the true nature of the "Groundhog Day" Loop), Shirou asked her if it was like "just waking up to find yourself turning into a bug." When someone suggests that Shirou/Ayako may be a thing, Taiga explodes and goes into a rant that compares the living arrangements at his place to a certain "hot springs boarding house". Luvia mentions during the alternate world phone call that her and Rin's nicknames in that timeline are respectively "Mary of July" and "Poppins of July". | |

Hand Wave: There's a scene aptly named "Memories" where Illya tells Shirou about Saber, Kiritsugu and Irisviel about halfway through the game that devotes itself to tying up the canon neatly and prepare the way for the yet-to-be-published Fate/Zero. Particularly the parts that made no sense, such as Saber and Kiritsugu never talking, Saber not recognizing Illya despite having met her and Irisviel not only going unmentioned in the original game but also the implication that she wasn't even in town then. Some of the explanations are better than others. These inconsistencies may be why it was clarified that Zero is not the version of events preceding stay night, but an Alternate Timeline. | |

| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_df582b0b | comment |
Continuity Snarl: If you keep track of everything that is mentioned in the story, you'll note that Shirou has to remember an impossibly complicated and possibly contradictory series of events. For example, he remembers Tohsaka beating Caster in close range combat in the church like in Unlimited Blade Works but he also remembers her being impaled by Gilgamesh outside his house as she was in Fate. Thankfully, this is the Nasuverse, so all routes are canon (even ones that were never shown, like Illya's route). Though ultimately this is also a major hint that something very weird is going on. | |

Please Put Some Clothes On | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_e0d0fb13 | comment |
Saber asks Shirou how a swimsuit set looks on her, but he's too embarrassed to even look at her and all but begs her to summon her Instant Armor. Then they hear Taiga approaching the room and he freaks out at the prospect of their Unwitting Muggle Friend seeing Saber in her magical Battle Ballgown and pushes the latter into the closet. For a moment it seems like his fast-thinking is working until Taiga points to Saber's usual clothes neatly folded into a pile (from when she tried her swimsuit on) and gets the idea that something a lot less wholesome was just happening. Needless to say, Hilarity Ensues. | |

Bag of Holding | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_e3226029 | comment |
Bag of Holding: It's noted that mages have a technique called 'capacity distortion' for making luggage carry far more than they were meant to hold, with Shirou recalling that Kiritsugu often used it whenever he went on excursions. However, Rin did not use it for her trip to London because she wasn't sure whether the spell could be maintained by her on the way there or back, fearing that her suitcase would simply explode from no longer being able to carry everything (this fear handily conveyed by an Imagine Spot where even Saber was stuffed in there). | |

Innocent Inaccurate | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_e598d4ac | comment |
Innocent Inaccurate: Shirou remembers seeing Kiritsugu off at Fuyuki's harbor due to his frequent travels overseas. He never thought much of it until recently when he connected the dots and figured out that his father was most likely illegally leaving and entering the country by sea on a regular basis. Given that his old man took down an airliner inbound to New York with a surface-to-air guided missile in Fate/Zero, it isn't surprising he'd be extra careful of airport security. | |

GameplayAndStoryIntegration | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_e6630c8b | comment |
Gameplay and Story Integration: Unlike the others, there are several different ways to unlock Rider's Eclipse scene. First, you need to have already seen Sakura's Eclipse scene. After that, you can either unlock a series of Slice of Life scenes until reaching the one where she and Shirou have a date at the shopping mall, or find and read each scene exploring her past and her nature as a monster. This makes a lot of sense when you read the extended version of the scene "Monster" titled simply "Not" and realize that the point the novel was trying to make is that the two of them are Rider's true natures existing right next to the other: the socially awkward yet caring protector, and the homicidal monster that takes delight in its killing. | |

Moment Killer | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_ece6f910 | comment |
Moment Killer: Sakura does it all the time for Rider, killing many a moment with Shirou. All of the heroines have somewhat of a jealous streak, so many a moment is killed by all of them. Like when Saber and Rider spied on Sakura's date with Shirou at the pool, and when Rider outright crashed on Rin's. | |

Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick: Sakura's book collection is about what you'd expect it to be- home economics, stress relief, cookbooks, and familicide. | |

Mundane Utility | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_eff83d77 | comment |
Mundane Utility: Lancer picking flowers and showing off for girls with Gae Bolg, an Imagine Spot of Rider petrifying policemen who are after her, Saber unleashing the Barrier of the Wind King when Shirou teases her about her stuffed lion and more. Caster has her clothes enchanted with water/stain/grease-repelling magic and she also wield an antibacterial protective shield. You could say that cooking for her husband is Serious Business for Caster. Archer can use his Projection magic to imitate every legendary, immensely powerful weapon he's ever seen. He can also use it to make a modern, top-of-the-line fishing rod. When Rider's long hair becomes too disheveled, she can fix it by shifting into Spirit Form and back, which resets it to its default form without having to go through all the hassle of combing it. Somewhat Subverted in that she doesn't resort to this much because she doesn't want to be a burden to Sakura who provides her with magical energy for something trivial like that. Bazette using Fragarach to win a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors. | |

Verbal Backspace: When Shirou goes to the pool with all the main female characters, he's surprised to find Kid Gilgamesh there and complains that even the owner of the resort shouldn't crash other people's parties like that. Shirou then does a 180-turn in utter gratitude when Gil says he kept Archer and Lancer from trespassing on the premises. | |

The appearances of Rider's sisters in her backstory, where they are initially shown bullying her terribly in scenes that are played for laughs, but then comes the harsh reminder that Medusa turned into a monster and devoured both of them. Her memories of being bullied by them are the fondest ones she has. | |

Alternate Self | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_fceae121 | comment |
The scene where Shirou and Rin get trapped in Zelretch's chest and try to call for help by phone provides several when they end up contacting people from parallel worlds. Like whatever Shirou's Alternate Self did to become Sickeningly Sweethearts with his version of Rin, or how another ended up working with Luvia, or whatever happened to make that version of her and Rin jump off the Tower of London together while on the run from the Clock Tower. | |

Brick Joke | |
| Fate/hollow ataraxia (Visual Novel) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Saegusa's stories are about a woman's ghost on the second floor of a western mansion and a string-like thing hanging in the sky over Shinto. Rin dismisses the first as slander about her house, but it becomes a plot thread where Shirou finds out the house is real and investigates it. It's the house Bazett is operating out of. As a Brick Joke in the ending, Bazett thinks she'll play a prank on Rin and pretend to be a ghost. The second story is about the stairs Avenger must ascend in order to reach the Holy Grail. | |

My Future Self and Me: Trapped inside a pocket dimension, Rin and Shirou try phoning for help- and end up talking to alternate versions of people they know, including Rin's future self, who is madly, hopelessly in love with Shirou. Present Shirou wonders what he could have done to make her so lovey-dovey, while Present Rin is seemingly astounded that anyone would fall for him in the first place. Overlaps with Other Me Annoys Me, although Rin doesn't recognise her own voice and assumes her future self is just "some strange woman" Shirou is going to meet. | |
