Okay so we see how Heracles was summoned normally and was altered. I take it wasn't just command spells that corrupted him.

Really interesting that the young shounen will become the lancer rather than summoning lancer himself. His whole aesthetic really screams Kiritsugu, so maybe hes his and Maya's unknown son? (please don't confirm if I'm right, just sharing my thoughts)

Really solid series so far, looking forward to next week already.

Still a great episode but it's really starting to show that they had to cut and speed through some scenes to make it fit in 13 episodes. Heracles' and Prelati's summoning sequences were much more poignant in the light novel and I really wish Prelati's summoning chant was animated because it really expresses her attitude towards magecraft. I recommend reading both of their summoning sequences in the light novel if you guys can.
