For the 10th Anniversary of Ufotable’s Unlimited Blade Works they dropped a lot of illustrations. This one is a banger 🥰

Also this Archer is so soft. He’s so handsome.

just another day in the emiya household

[hawkgirlz]

shirou’s real last name is never revealed, similar to how shiki didn’t know his own last name for a while in tsukihime. both of them were forced to adopt the name of their adoptive parents due to circumstances beyond their control—shirou takes on the emiya name to inherit kiritsugu’s dream of being a hero, while shiki is given the tohno name after the real shiki tohno’s death.

they’re both essentially actors, using these inherited identities as empty shells to push themselves forward. the emiya name is a curse, just like the tohno name. archer and SHIKI!roa both blame shirou and shiki for ruining their lives, for being frauds who stole something that wasn’t originally theirs (kiritsugou's ideals & the tohno identity).

but there’s a key difference—archer discards his name entirely, becoming heroic spirit EMIYA, while SHIKI’s identity is outright stolen when he is forced into the tohno role. and yet, the accusations of being fakes never stop.

shirou also barely remembers anything from before the fire. similar to how shiki doesn't remember anything before the murder because the tohno father erased his memories.

"but he left you that curse." (fate stay/night) / "...the tohno family is cursed." (tsukihime: a piece of blue glass moon)
