Two years before the events of Fate/stay night, after Shirou was injured in an accident, Sakura gathered enough courage to approach and help him she has visited him ever since to assist with daily activities. She joined the Archery club in order to be closer to Shirou watching him from afar. The inspiration she found came from watching him persistently attempt to jump a bar during a track-and-field practice session. Sakura drew her strength to endure such hardships from Shirou, whom she admired for his dedication. However, she still kept the ribbon Rin gave her. For the eleven years after her adoption, Sakura grew to resent Zouken for his cruelty, Tokiomi for sending her away, and finally Rin, for never coming to save her.

Sometime after the death of Byakuya, Shinji began raping her.Īlthough castigated and humiliated on a daily basis, Sakura maintained her bearings with great stoicism. Because Sakura was apologetic and expressed pity toward him, Shinji took that as Sakura submitting herself to him since she displayed no emotion. This ended the day Shinji found out that Sakura had become the heir to the Matou family instead of him and he became harsh with her, just like everyone else in the Matou house. Though he later came to love and accept his new sister, he bullied her. Sometime later, Sakura met her new brother Shinji (who was studying abroad at the time of the Fourth Holy Grail War) when he returned to the Matou house. He implanted these parasitic worms into Sakura's body, which drain her Magical Energy but feed on her carnal impulses. His death demoralizes her, and she convinces herself that she should not attempt to fight against Zouken.Īfter gathering the tainted fragments of the shattered grail from that war, Zouken hybridized the collected black ichor with several of his Crest Worm Familiars. Unfortunately, Kariya died in his attempt and Sakura was unable to understand Kariya's motivation for trying to rescue her. When Kariya Matou, Sakura's adopted uncle and her mother's childhood friend, learned of Zouken's intentions, Kariya attempted to win the Fourth Holy Grail War in hopes of liberating her. Having to endure the cruel training under Zouken and Byakuya Matou, Sakura became an empty and emotionless shell resigned to her fate. Zouken Matou, an ancient ally of the Tohsaka House, offered to adopt Sakura with the intention of training her as the successor of the Matou's Magecraft as his own heir, Shinji Matou, was incapable of Magecraft.Īs a result of her natural abilities, Zouken sought to use Sakura as one of his future vessels, empowered by the Angra Mainyu. Like most Magi, her father chose only one daughter to carry on his family's tradition as he believed raising an additional child would introduce competition. Born as Sakura Tohsaka (遠坂桜, Tōsaka Sakura ?), she is the biological younger sister of Rin Tohsaka and daughter of Tokiomi Tohsaka and Aoi Zenjou.
