Shirou is someone who at the start doesn't know exactly what he wants. He has a superficial view on being a hero, and who actively gets challenged along the way of the story through various ways. Being inexperienced in life, he harbors a very dichotomous view on the world, wherein people are easily distributed into either being "good" or "bad". His scene with Caster on the bridge displayed what that ideology gave him and ended horribly, which he reflects upon in Ep 13. It is a simple belief that he harbors, but to him that is what he thinks (and possible the only thing) he sees is able to bring him fulfillment in life.
However, he isn't an idiot for it. He is aware of what his ideals means and not having regrets is a lose belief system (he states this himself in Ep 13). It is an admirable ethical view that he holds, but as the show tries to tell with him (and many other characters) is what happens when you harbor such stark views without room for other frameworks to fit into their belief system (and Shirou, as can be seen in Ep 16 is mentally unstable)
Honestly, Shirou doesn't seem changed at all from EP13.
It's like he learned nothing from the bridge.
And "having regrets" is not something you can really control.
You can keep telling yourself you don't have regrets, but that would not be true
Retour en haut
