| damn the leaf aka ken yamamoto directing now he is legendary doing a lot of key animation on fate grand order babylonia anime |
| AHHHHH LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! |
 |
| I just have one key question. Are they adapting some of the story from the game and the "paper" adaptations, or is most of the anime completely original? |
 |
| Looks like this is going to be a prequel seeing that Jungle Pocket raced in the early 2000's, while the horses in the TV series all raced during the 2010's. |
| Gonna pass. I liked the first season of the series. But already in the 2nd season it felt weaker and with the recent season it seemed like ... "the same stuff just with different chars". It is getting a bit too old for me and I'm not willing to follow this endlessly. (I would not mind more of the Shingeki no Bahamut though - also based on a Cygames game. :D) |

| @Luthandorius Well, at this point, it seems like the perfect setup to promote as many characters as possible instead of creating 1-2 seasons with only a couple of characters at the center. Bushiroad have already taken this into account, although they got too carried away in recent seasons IMHO. |

| I always say, you know that you've made it big when you get a movie. |
