Kotomine, Kirei

Summary

Kotomine Kirei, born on December 28, 1967, serves as the overseer of the Holy Grail War, residing within the church situated atop the hill. Standing 185 cm tall during the events of Fate/Zero and growing to 193 cm by Fate/stay night, he weighs 82 kg and possesses a B blood type. His personality is defined by a callous and sarcastic demeanor, underpinned by extensive knowledge. He holds a peculiar fondness for misfortune while harboring a deep dislike for trust. As the supervisor, his responsibilities include enforcing the rules of the Holy Grail War, concealing any incidents that might reveal the War to the public, and offering sanctuary to Masters who withdraw. Although Tohsaka and Shirou appear to detest him, their actual feelings are not entirely negative. Kotomine maintains membership in both the Mage's Association and the Church, an unusual dual affiliation that likely led to his selection as overseer despite the enmity between the two organizations. He plays a significant role across all narrative routes, with his involvement becoming most prominent in the final route, Heaven's Feel, where he takes an active part early in the story. His philosophy is encapsulated in the sentiment that while the past cannot be changed, individuals must accept their actions and choose how to perceive their history, allowing it to inform their future.
