Summary
Shinji Matou is the apparent Master of Rider in the Fifth Holy Grail War, taking over for his younger sister, Sakura in the Fate and Unlimited Blade Works routes. Born in a generation where the Matou family was no longer able to produce heirs capable of using magecraft, Shinji has no aptitude for such things. Despite knowing this, Shinji still thought of himself as special and as the rightful heir of the Matou bloodline, but after learning why Sakura had joined the family, he became bitter and began to take out his frustration on his younger sister.

- The Book of False Attendant: A book created from the Command Spells of Rider's Master, which Shinji must use instead of actual Command Spells to control her. As it is not a true Command Spell, it will burn up if Shinji pushes it beyond its limits in his incompetence, and it can be used to materialize shadows that he can use to attack his opponents.
Intelligence: While fairly cunning and intelligent, especially when it comes to deduction, Shinji is haughty, arrogant, and overconfident, tending to make foolish decisions when he thinks he's in control.
Weaknesses: Shinji is overconfident, cowardly, arrogant, and foolish, and because he is not a true Master, he cannot use the Book of False Attendant to the same extent as an actual Command Spell, as it will burn up if he pushes it too far.
