In UBW, Gilgamesh kills Archer. How come he's still around at the ending when
he helps Shirou?

How come Archer was still around?


Turns out, Gilgamesh doesn't actually kill Archer. Yes, he skewers him with
multiple weapons, but that apparently isn't enough to off him. When you see
Archer disappear after being skewered, that's him changing to spirit form,
rather than him dying and dematerializing altogether.

Kind of an unsatisfying explanation, but it is what it is.
