Just makes rewatching 3rei all the more tragic. Died like that and then brought back as this messed up puppet. Though I suppose it could be worse. Could have been turned into that puppet with her rationality intact, but still forced to nearly kill someone she cares about.
In a sense the whole cards thing really works. Shirou is the type of character that ends up putting himself on the front lines anyways. At least in this situation he can actually take care of himself and face opponents on a similar level.
As a whole I still really like this movie. It develops Shirou nicely through a good stretch of time, has some emotional gut punches (Miyu's capture and Sakura's death), and ends on a pretty good bit of self-sacrifice by Shirou. I like this version of Shirou more than most that I've seen. I get where he's coming from and his arc ends in a place that I can respect.
