C.I has been nudging me to play the Fate/Stay Night visual novel since I can’t remember when, and he passed me a copy of the game nearly 2 months ago. I clearly forgot about it and never touched it, leaving the installation files sitting on my hard drive.
It was until today when I decided to make good use of my time during a lecture to install the game. My friend sitting beside me saw that I had the game and requested for a copy. And so, we both started on the VN installation, in the lecture hall. He complete his installation first and proceeded to start up the game.

Mana has a dark past which she conceals from Shinji, and coincidently happens to be a child pilot of another type of robot, which is somewhat similar to what Shinji is. She was supposed to spy on Shinji and Evangelion Unit 01, but with her other friends who are child pilots running away in the robots from the organisation they were from, she gets into trouble and is hunted down desperately by the organisation.
