Of course, I do not like the first episodes with such a poor exposure, but I enjoyed the atmosphere of the crossover Gatari with USB. When you see this again, lol?. But the last scene was really cool.

This has Netflix exclusivity, so you watch it either raw (for now) or in nippon.
Wait, Netflix got this exclusively too?!

FUCK!!!

Wait, why Netflix exclusivity is bad ?

Because that means we cannot legally see it until long after it is complete if it's a 1-cour, and if it's a 2-cour, we only have the chance of seeing it legally towards or past the end of the show's run. Kakegurui and ID-0 are good examples of the former. Little Witch Academia an Fate/Apocrypha are fantastic examples of the latter.

Basically, pirating them is mandatory if we wanna see them as they air and contribute any semblance of buzz about them beyond their licensors taking them away.

That was just bad. Shaftism doesn't work at all, hamfisted symbolism all over the place and shinji acting completely out of character. Even if he's an ass there's no reason to believe he'd stab someone to death for the joy of it in the extra world.
Also the way those doll/robot things just come out and stab everything to death. Fucking hell you have a very good reference point to how the mooncell deals with people who've lost, what the fuck was that? Also everything bleeds. What?

I agree the shinji scene is a bit much for me to want to like him better haha.

But while the doll things are different, its not that much different then what happened at the beginning of CCC. The place was falling apart and you were being attacked haha

Did you realize? Stone Archer smiles after being defeated WTF (Screenshots inside the spoiler)



yeah, he definitely wasn't trying hard. It could have been a test by the moon cell or something. The point was that he was testing your spirit, maybe?
I need subs, maybe BL might have some idea whats going on.

Great, judging by how frustrating it was following Apocrypha for 6 months with its inconsistent-as-fuck release schedule, I'm expecting the same for this show as well.

*Sigh* If Netflix wants to be a part of the anime train then can they stick to doing things like Devilman Crybaby and fuck off when it comes to simulcasting....Apocrypha was already a pain in the ass to watch (sometimes episodes came out on Sunday afternoons, other times late Saturday nights, sometimes eps wouldn't come out until fucking Tuesday). Now we have to deal with it all over again with this.

EDIT: Well I thought I'd be waiting forever for this to come out, but it was only a one day delay. It got off to a pretty decent start but I'm not entirely sure how I feel about the show just yet. Let's see how I feel after a couple more episodes.

Will probably add more thoughts once translations come out

This definitely seems to diverge a bit from Extra already, which is good, because Extra didn't do that much spectacularly.

Fate/Extra game spoilers below


All the Shaft visuals look nice, but it feels weird for them to just go super surrealistic already. I'll have to see how they do the next episodes before I give an opinion on it.

This is really confusing. I haven't finished Extra or started CCC so I don't know if somehow these events have a connection.

I know they're going original, but for now it's still so confusing since they already mentioned the moon cell.

Also, what was that first fight?

But besides the first ep confusions, it's refreshing to see another Fate that is not the main series, specially when Shaft is animating, I really love how they have a very noticeable style of shots.

4.5/5 becuz Hakunon died :'<

The anime feels like a "reboot" or a rewrite of F/E story (to me, anyway). There are already some differences that aren't in the original F/E game or CCC. So really, it caters towards new and old fans alike. Those that haven't played the game and those that have. It'll be a fresh experience on both sides, imo.

That's a huge spoiler to explain, and the fact they showed off something like that is, well, almost like something that'll eventually come in the fights they'll face. Like a pre-cursor to what's going to happen at some point.

Fun fact: Shaft also animated Fate/Extra CCC's and Fate/Extella's openings.

RIP Hakunon, indeed. At least she had some screen time.

Is the release on netflix global and simulcast?

It's the same as with the Apocrypha.


translated:

Japan gets it now, episode by episode. Filthy gaijin outside of Japan (meaning all of us who don't understand or speak fluent Japanese) need to wait until Netflix US, Netflix Canada, and Netflix Europe get their heads out of their collective asses and decide to grace us with the entire first season, all at once, in about 18-20 weeks (approximately June 9th). After that, the next season (assuming two cour or at least 18 episodes) will take another two-to-four months because "reasons," just like Fate Apocrypha (the second season of which debuts on netflix in February).

There was a time was back when the first Pokemon series was airing (a Porygon episode that got banned)...The flashes of light caused over 600 kids to go through epileptic seizures so it's something they're still cautious of... In a lot of cases just for safety there's this warning that shows up at the start of anime episodes being broadcast that you should sit at a distance from the screen and at a distance

So probably just to be cautious because of the bright colour effects

4 out of 5. Not a bad score, right?
You cant decide an overall score from 1 episode btw.
They zoom nero's smooth leg twice without panty shot. Well, thats wise. Please no fanservice like ccc. It just felt out of place, seriously.

Blood effect is something alright, just for dramatic effect scene i thought.
I hope Shaft will make some darker story than Fate/Apo.. just half of fate/zero then i believe this anime will be a nice ride.

WHY YOU HAVE TO DIE? AND WHY YOU ALREADY FIGHTING



Did i heard it right? Shinji just call her his girlfriend? WHAT!?


What are you doing here on 1st episode?


Archer Emiya/Extra? why this scene remind me of UBS?


And where did you go?


Don't use your hand here Touma


Is this New Game+ or Anime Original? they seem remember a lot of thing.

And with Umu was Hakunon's servant before are they going to remake another situation Saber with Kiritsugu and Shirou on Fate/Stay?

going to be different or somewhat anime original, you can look on the thread about Nasu's blog, to answer some of your questions.

This is very disappointing.

1) another male master and female servant pair, I am tired of this

2) I don't like the male mc attitude

3) is our mc a god or something? he was stabbed over and over, fell down from exreme height. His plot armor is too strong.

I hope Nero can save anime.

I'm tellin' ya that it feels like the role Hakunon will play in this anime is similar to the one Nasu wanted her to play in extella zero, just with a different set up. (Possibly less controversial one? we'll see.)

Nothing about a shinji girlfriend, but unless it turns out to be one of the two servants I doubt it'll be that important. It'll probably provide something for shinji but not much more then that.

Extella zero isn't this, anyway. But I imagine he'd want to carry over some concepts and idea he had from the blog post/backstory that was laready shrouded in some mystery/lacking details. It just makes sense tbh.

EDIT: also, remember that shinji was "popular" with the girls in the beginning of fate extra. His prologue version had that attribute, never mentioned a girlfriend but its not that far of a stretch.

EDIT2: Also not to be that girl but

If she used to summon Tamamo as a another Master then this anime fully sold for me xD.

Shinji mention she is safe there is some safe place from that mass forced log out event.

Even Hakuno already know (?) they are inside VR to get Holy Grail War it seem.

ok. i think i need subs to understand this better.
The only question i have is :
Do they already know that they are in the Prelim rounds?(Cause they were being taught masters and servants and the moon cell in class)

I find that pink hair girl really hot. Hope they don't kill her off. Oh and why is she dating

Pretty sure this episode will be awesome if subs come out. I'm looking forward to see the differences and be like "what"
I've been looking around since it aired and there seems to be no group that's planning on subbing this.
Too bad.
PS. i miss the decoy protag we used in the game's prelim.

I only played the first game but this is like an enhanced version of the prelims prologue before they get to the actual setting and holy grail war.
Also why is Kotomine dead already in the anime? In the game he's a NPC who oversees the war. Seems like a waste.
This must've been very confusing for anime-onlies as usual, the anime won't follow the story of the game though.
This anime is already way better than Apocrypha just by existing and it's also written by Nasu.
