Emiya Kiritsugu-0

In the battlefield, there is no place for hope. What lies there is only cold despair and a sin called victory, built on the pain of the defeated.
~ Kiritsugu Emiya

Shirou, choosing to save someone means choosing not to save someone else. You see, no matter what your intention is, you can only save those who belong to your side. I know it should be obvious, but that is the definition of a Hero of Justice.
~ Kiritsugu to Shirou Emiya

Kiritsugu Emiya is the main protagonist of the anime, Fate/Zero, notable for being a collaboration between Fate's publisher/developer, TYPE-MOON, & collaborator, Nitro+. He is the father of Illyasviel von Einzbern, as well as the adoptive father of Shirou Emiya, who is known by the Mage's Association for being able to use the much lesser known "Sword" Magic.

Synopsis[]

Kiritsugu is known as the "Mage Killer" due to his skill and occupation in assassinating mages using unorthodox and arguably immoral methods, much to the ire of fellow magi. His wish and purpose in life was to become a "hero of justice" who would save the world and bring peace to all. He recognized the impossibility of his wish, leading him to seek out the Holy Grail in order to grant it. Joining the Fourth Holy Grail War on behalf of the Einzbern family, Kiritsugu eliminated foe after foe, before appearing before the Grail and realizing the corruption of the artifact and that his wish could never be granted. He then ordered Saber to destroy the Grail, unintentionally unleashing the curses within the Grail and setting the entire city of Fuyuki ablaze. Just when he had lost all hope, Kiritsugu found Shirou, a young boy who had survived the disaster and adopted him. Several years later, Shirou vowed to adopt Kiritsugu's dream as his own, after which Kiritsugu peacefully passed away.
