----------------------------------------
I think episode 1 airs next week for the full hour but episode 0 is glorious. We get mostly Rin's point of view from waking up, going to class, and conversing with Archer. Her rage was amusing to watch as well.

It goes over some mechanics regarding the grail wars and stuff.
also spotted briefly as well. Roof scene took a bit longer than I had thought but the animation is much better than DEEN's. The fight between Lancer and Archer is awesome

Overall good start. Ufotable's superior animation does not disappoint :3. I think the next episode (episode 1) is from Shiro's point of view.

Everyday life before Main girl's summoning of her servant, and meeting her enemy. Two daggers, interesting. A student who got involved was that main guy from the first series, and saved him. The servant she wanted at the end.

ED for this ep. / OP is nice.

Cannot wait for ep.1.

Superb visuals is superb. My eyes are totally glued to the screen during the Lancer X Archer fight. :3 The pacing is also good so I now have some good expectations for this re-adaptation.

From what I can tell decent adaptation. They re-arranged some scenes and cut out some scenes(some of them I am sure they will re-add in another place latter on and explanations are repeated latter on anyway), but otherwise mostly very faithful.

As I said before they
.

Sad to hear they did not remix any of VN ost tracks but I hope that won't be the case latter on.

Otherwise solid 10/10

It was a pretty top notch so far with a smooth transition to an anime adaptation.
The unimportant scenes were made shorter and the more important ones were fleshed out.
It followed the prologue really good, the OST was amazing, the animation was so too (though I've watched a stream so I couldn't enjoy the animation fully), real men drink tea was there, the first archer lancer battle was great, etc etc.

5/5.

Well that was fantastic. Almost perfect adaptation, like 99% the animation was incredible, even better than Zeros, the fight scenes breath-taking and the OST was pretty damn good too-still a bit miffed they didn't use Ever Present Feeling in that one scene, but that's one of my very few minor problems with this.

Over 9000/5.

That was everything I had hoped it would be.
The only thing I didn't like was Rin's design, she looks pretty bad, especially from the side.
Other than that 10/10 and I can't fucking wait for more.

No you can't tell who it is.
No the story does not reveal who it is till midway through the storyline.

Its LITERALLY A CAMEO without name or context.

This does not even have that.

People are not supposed to know who he is. This is made as a stand alone series and should be treated as such.

That was just. Wow. Wow. Just wow. That was so absolutely epic and glorious that I have no words how to describe it, apart from-

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

KREEEEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

IT WAS SO PERFECT LIKE OMAIGAWD HOW DID THEY EVEN DO THAT

Okay, fangirling aside for a moment, everything was just right, the music, the animation, the focus on certain scenes and such, everything. Especially the Rin jump and the GARcher vs sexy-beast Lancer battle afterwards, the animation right there practically surpassed F/Z animation already...and this is just the first, least significant battle. I can't even begin to imagine what's in store! OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG SIX YEARS I HAVE WAITED. SIX YEARS AND IT HAS DAMN WELL PAID OFF, MY FELLOW COMRADES.

From what i saw, everything was 10000/10, Rin looked weird. She looked even different from how she looked like in F/0. Hope it gets better as the show progresses. Also must mention The Most Epic Battle i've seen in a while.

Also yeah, this.

Anything related to F/Z is assumed to be not known by the narrative (since F/Z came out a whole two or three years after FSN vn and this will faithfully follow it respecting that order with only subtle references)

Nope, unfortunately. Episode 1 will premier on the 11th. But oh well. Two hours of continuous UfoF/SN may be a tad bit too much for our puny brains to take in at once.

They're not going to adapt every single detail. Though I'll admit, those are fairly important, and should be added sometime. And I actually do agree on the music point, was expecting some more remixes. There's always later I guess. Though as I mentioned earlier, a particular OST could have been there, just too subtly to hear right.
Still, at this rate I'd be expecting you to complain if they omit the H-scenes.
