The animation is so good. Great start, no doubt about it, this will be the best anime this season, probably of the year too.

Ah, this episode, this story is back. I am not sure how many times I saw it already in VN, Anime, Movie, and even manga but everytime I can't get enough of it.

This episode 0 is the greatness.

Well, nothing wrong with foreshadowing, imo.
On the other hand, that bond scene better not be foreshadowing a dolphin

Epic stuff right there :D

It's quite weird seeing Archer bow XD

All Dem blushing Rin scenes were Kawaiii <3

Love her and Archer's interactions ^^

Dat Lancer vs Archer was *A* GORGEOUS!!! Amazing animation!! Dat intensity!

Loved how it was fully from Rin's pov. Can't wait for the dots to get connected from Shiro's pov nxt week >.<!!

I regard this Fate series as highly top class anime, but oddly I wasn't really that hyped as I'm supposed to be (just like Psycho Pass 2).

But now, I'm smiling. This Ufotable adaptation is splendidly executed. I would have wished that would re-adapt the F/SN TV series done by DEEN (which I would never watch because the animation is.. ugh) because it's the first route of the game. However, that doesn't matter anymore, Rin seems to be a more likeable character compared to Shiro.

Ufotable does it again!

Now this is what I call a first episode, and finally an anime that deserve all of its hype. This shit was 46min long and I wasn't broad not 1 sec. The animation was just astonishing. The fights were superb. And Archer is cool as fuck. I like the way he talks to Rin. Can't blame her blushing. Love how they just gave you information without letting you know everything. Lancer was also pretty cool. Saw my girl saber at the end. Wonder what happened to my boy Shirou? Man I can't wait for next episode.

6/5.

Shirous actually a great character, the old anime just never showed it, since animation aside it's a shit adaptation all around. And this route actually is about Shirou too, it's just this episode is adapted from the prologue for the VN, which is from Rin's POV.

Shirou is still the lead character. The previous adaptation simply removed anything and everything that made him a character. He is arguably the most complex VN protagonist to exist.

EVERY game route begins with Rin's point of view and then transitions into his, since she is the secondary lead in every route.


Also the previous adaptation did not really cover the first route. It took parts an d pieces of all three routes and made anime-original storyline out of it.

Oh I see, I really thought she would still be the main lead in this route, and Shiro is the second one. Now, I dislike DEEN even more. Thanks for the info guys.

Absolutely brilliant. The hype is real as it should be. Too much GAR for me to handle at once, my body wasn't ready.

I'm glad they picked Fukusawa as the composer. Top notch tracks are best suited with top notch animation.

Everything was adapted very well, apart from the skipped infodumps. I hope they spread them out eavenly in future episodes or at least present them as a small explanation when needed. It's not possible to adapt the VN exactly head to head, so this is a minor nitpick.

But overall, I'm glad ufo are the ones adapting this.

DEEN is a shit and killed Shirous excellent character. Fortunately we have this adaptation to showcase that he actually has a lot of depth beyond the generic-shounen-thick-headed-sexist that is portrayed in the DEEN anime.

We obviously will. This episode is the prologue, where we see how things happen from Rin's POV. That's why it's episode 0. Next week we will see episode 1, where the UBW route actually starts from Shirou's POV.

I couldn't stop smiling out of excitement while watching this!
Rin summoning archer instead because of the one hour difference!

Rin and Archer's interactions ^ Rin being tsun sometimes and Archer sometimes complimenting her.

The Archer vs Lancer fight and Emiya getting hit. Saber appearing at the end!
The animation was amazing though especially the fights!

"Isn't relevant" What does that even mean? And honestly you just ruined it for yourself watching the shit movie.

That was amazing. T__T

The animation was perfect. And Rin. That body! Ooh Ufotable you sure know how to animate sexy tsunderes!

Archer was just as GAR as expected. And Saber was just fangasm worthy.

The fight scene was the best animated melee fight I have ever seen, to be honest. The smoothness of everything was just incredible.

I have all the faith in Ufotable now. Next episode, Shirou's summoning!
