| Cool but confusing as hell. Do I have to watch Fate/Stay Night to understand this fully or it has nothing to do? |

ridley388 said: Cool but confusing as hell. Do I have to watch Fate/Stay Night to understand this fully or it has nothing to do? Not really no. While knowing FSN stuff is beneficial, FSN anime stuff won't help with that. Story wise this is completely separate work. |
 |
| Was pretty good if I say so myself. Then again, I like most Fate stuff since it never bores me. Also (UTW subbed it, but don't ask where to get it) |
 |
| The last third was the most interesting bit. Fate's first episodes are always filled with relatively stale exposition, but it always ends up picking up so I'm used to it. Last bit was best.

I know I have a pretty bad attention span, but I'm still not sure how all of you mates manage to stay focused while tons of character (dat designs...) and lots of stuff get introduced all at the same time. I don't blame you one bit lol At least it wasn't an hour like F/Z's was. |
| That was a pretty great start. The opening moments were awesome, the action is really nice and flashy, I hope they keep up that quality for the remainder of the series. Rest of the episode was mostly just setup and establishing the setting of the Great Holy Grail War. The servant summoning at the end was great, Mordred. :D Huge props to UTW for rising out of the ashes to give us this sub. XD |
 |
| The entire episode was boring until the last few minute when they summon the servants. 5/10 so far. I will see how the next episode goes. Hopefully I won't struggle to try not to fall asleep like this episode. |
| I know this is probably a really stupid question... But i have yet to watch any of the fate shos yet (I do plan on it though) But this looks pretty fun, so is that something you can watch without seeing any of the other shows? |

Thanks a bunch! |
| they failed the sound effects heavily lol .. also the art style kinda reminded me of an 2006 anime (which is not a necessarily a bad thing) First episode was cool i'll definitely continue watching |
| "Sisi" means Lion. Ok I'm so triggered by this. |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| I'm confused, which side are we supposed to root for? is the MC part of the Yggdmillenia faction? if so, why did they appear like the bad ones? xD |
| Excellent start. Good that this is a 2-cour so hopefully nothing will be too rushed. Looking forward to more epic stuff. |
| UTW is back doing fansubs, we have been blessed!! very top tier animation, makes one think back about the glory of f/z season 2... |
 hello, hope's peak academy ✧ |
GangsterCat said: better than I expected, 7 vs 7 war, cool animation, cool designed characters and familiar top notch seiyuu whats with the backstory setting? there is kotomine-like shirou and his servant has pretty familiar seiyuu and fuyuki war is 60 years ago??? is it distant sequel or alternate universe where that immortal guy won the fuyuki city grail war? This is an alternate universe where the Greater Grail is stolen at the end of the Third Holy Grail War (1930s). This takes place after Fate/Zero since Waver is older (though the events of Zero did not happen, there was still another HGW where Waver got Iskander). |

| First great impression. The fight in the beginning was epic. So Mordred was summoned. Loving her already. Also Jeanne d'Arc is joining in. Nice to see Waver. He still has that long hair. Glad this is 2-cour. |
 |
| Pretty nice first episode in my opinion. The fight at the beginning had some really neat animation. Considering this will be 25 episodes, I'm expecting a nice ride, or at least a decent one. |

Drake1000 said: Similar start to F/Z with a bucket of exposition, not that I care. I expected a lot worse from A1 but they've done a decent enough job with the presentation and animation from what can I see with this first episode. I heard the source material is trash, I hope they go anime original and tweak it in that case. The Masters on both sides look so fucking bland, especially on the Red side, it seems obvious that aside from Modo reddo's master and church boy the other 5 will just get shafted or replaced, or placed in the command of someone else. Apo's main draw is servants fucking shit up. Masters are there as a window dressing at most. |

| Wow, this was probably the worst first episode I've seen in a while and that's saying something with garbage I've been unlucky to stumble upon in recent seasons. There wasn't a single good thing about it. Hell, even Viral's VA sounded like crap. It takes some skill to ruin such awesome voice. And that's before mentioning what a fucking piece of garbage MC boy is. Holly shit, I hated him the moment he opened his mouth and every single line he uttered afterwards made me despise him even more. Compared to that the whole pointless battle nobody gives a shit about cliche at the start was nothing. All in all, someone should have his fingers broken for making this abomination. Mind you, I'm not even a Fate fan, it's just that shit purely as some random title I decided to check out. |

| A nice first episode. I liked Mordred's armor with her Iron Man's armor. A good introduction, looking forward for the next episodes.

| That was a pretty good start, a lot of cool and interesting characters. Tried manga, but couldn't get into it, i think in the animation it looked much better, kinda obvious but expect lots of crazy fights. It has been a long time watching anime for 2 seasons. |
 |
| First off: poor souls are those people who didn't get all the references... I'm glad they decided to continue the tradition and we see again the exclusive Fate "Cigarettes". ITS FINALLY FUCKING HERE !!! - Best Ship (no not "fake hero of nibelung" and Jeane) of the season ! - Best Waifu of the season ! - Best Trap of the season ! Its nice to see again El-Melloi II and more importantly finally Flatt ! Errrr The Hero of Romania the Prince of Wallachia and his "forest hunt" was exactly what was i expecting. Knight of Treachery at the end uuu it's finally here. Finally the all characters from books that i read are in motion great ! Also thanks to the GODS for the subs ! |

This totally spoils HF and HA and is not necessary to mention at all so could probably do with a deletion, spoiler or no SabrinaKhuntia said: Er, because multiverse, and even F/Z technically isn't in the same timeline as F/SN (which I recently learned from @astroprogs). Well, that was essentially a handwave from Nasu to cover up the inconsistencies between what FSN and HA say happened in the Fourth War and what F/Z depicts but yes it's a "slightly alternate" universe Swagernator said: I'm glad they decided to continue the tradition and we see again the exclusive Fate "Cigarettes". excuse you but those are toukos and therefore knk-first cigarettes |

He is an important character with a lot of screen time , I suggest you drop this because he will annoy you even more in future episodes…... He will never appear again, you were triggered by nothing |

We most likely not even going to see him again. |
| This is intense asf but dam Mordred(Saber of Red) is more wild and tomboyish than Saber. |
Thanks Netflix for reviving fansub! UTW on top of that! Antanaru said: Guilek said: Twat who has to use fingers to count to 14 who bumped into generic big "cool dude in shades".

| The waiting is over, blessed are the fansubbers. That was typical Fate from the start, a lot action and summoning of Servants, have to say if anything this show is an eye candy. The character designs are cool and the animation is pretty good. Although I wasn't looking forward to this, this episode was kinda hype, hope it will be another hit of A1 and not one of the failures. |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
Eru said: He is just a cameo character, kek. Don't know why but for me he was like Stan Lee in MCU lol Also you never know if there somewhere is not a secret hidden plan for Strange Fake Anime... |
|
| Well, this was surprisingly more entertaining than I expected. Still don't give a flying crap about any of the cast or the typical magical exposition since this is a Fate series after all and they are not exactly known for having riveting characters that goes past the status of generic, emotionless cannon fodder. That battle at the beginning was some nice popcorn material though and despite its shortcuts and the average direction, it stills comes off as more exciting than anything Ufotable has done in terms of action (who knew that not replacing 2D assets with cheap CG effects would make things look better...). It's kind of funny how a studio like Ufo gets so much praise for its animation and fights yet A-1 pictures of all studios manages to make flashy battles that are less eye-rollingly dull. |
But F/Z Intro was amazing, well paced, and the summoning scene still give me chills, it was soooo cool. About the chapter, I just read like half of APO, and even if I dont have a huge love for TEAM Jeanne, it has potential, and I expect a lot from Mordred-Shishigo pair |

| Omg. This is what i expected. Fate always will be my favourite series. I can't wait to see more Jeanne. My beloved 5 star servant |
 |
| This was a'ight. I'm not really familiar with the source material for this one so I don't know what to expect. Jeanne is a good start tho, Saber of Red looked kinda weird (her face to be precise), but more importantly I hope she's better than the original blue one (come at me waifufags). The action was decent but is missing something. Dunno what to call it, "punch" or "impact" maybe? Like that explosion looked okay but it felt underwhelming. Some other scenes could have benefited from more omph for sure. |
 |
| Hmpf... the amount of explanation and exposition A-1 did was really abysmal. Show not tell, for god's sake! It felt empty, generic, the new great grail war that clearly lack its individuality and looks like every other battle royale. Yes, is still a Fate, that thing was pretty much given but I simply can't feel it, seems like the director of Charlotte (why,..why him?) didn't understand what Nasuverse is about. There is still (very) small hope this gets decent at least but I honestly doubt it would get anything close to the great. I actually liked Grand Order oneshot (although inferior still) better than this. |

| Like I honestly hadn't planned on watching another Fate series but goddamn I gave episode 1 a try and it didn't faild to impress. Already hyped up about Mordred and the plot is already interesting. If 7 servants weren't enough why not just double the amount? lol |
| Really excited for the next episode. Can't wait to see more of Jeane as she's already my favorite character based on design alone. |
