Hmm... I would be lying if I said I was totally satisfied with this. I'd say the fight started very promisingly by their coordinated combo, but the finish was kind of unfulfilling with summoning multiple Excaliburs and then shooting a megabeam. I suppose it was quite similar to the sort of lowkey way of Berserker perishing in the Fate route of FSN, which was vastly more anticlimactic than the insanely cruel UBW scene.

Another thing I'm not so happy with is Miyu turning so singularly possessive and hostile towards anybody but Ilya. Not being social with anybody but Ilya makes sense with her weird personality, but I think she took a too long step over the line. If it was meant to be comedy, the humour was lost on me. I guess this will have the work cut out for Ilya in the next season: to make Miyu less of a frozen douche.

Although it's not much of a point in this story, but I'd have liked to see, in a very short scene, how Shirou and Iris interact.

Well, despite all that complaining, I liked this show well enough and will most definitely watch the continuation as well.
