Woah It's like Fate/Stay Night without all the suck.So not like Fate/Stay Night at all.
I wish Nasu didn't change it so much. Then again it probably wouldn't be as popular.

Oh and is her command spell between her boobs? lolwut

Can you tell how exactly "it doesnt suck like FSN".You just got a bunch of random scenes.

What is the story?What about their development?

Anyone else to jump on the HATE TRAIN?

By all the suck I meant mainly Shirou. Anything without Shirou is better than anything with Shirou.

The heroine was whiny, coward and a little boring... and that's why I would like to see her development

and... did she made a Clark Kent? "with glasses I'm a looser, without them I'm a superhero"

Entertaining but short. Would love to see a full season with this interpretation of the Fate mythos. Who knows, everything Fate related is popular these days, so why not cash in further and make a full series out of this.

Seems pretty cool and the "trailer-like" part felt intense. Would watch if it were a full thing

Some things were kinda weird though, like the Servants' clothes ._.
Also, what were the magic circuit-like lines that spread everywhere when Saber was summoned? How did Lancer's NP break with one slash? wot

This, yes. Very good.

I liked Female Saber but I like the dynamics between Male Saber and his master much more.

Would make for a decent AU at least. Why can't more AU's with less fanservice?

So Saber was supposed to be male huh. Archer is still giving too much attention to the male Saber as well as Gilgamesh does with the "female Saber" :o

Pretty interesting but I'd still prefer the "female Saber" even if the character is not that good.

That looked cool :o Well haven't watched the original FSN, and UBW just started, so not too familiar with the differences except how the characters looked. Male Saber was pretty cute I guess. I'm surprised this was done by Lerche since it looks so similar to ufotable (well in my eyes anyways, I'm sure there are people who think they look nothing alike or something). The visuals were certainly pretty. Also, from what I've read, people don't really like Shirou as the mc that much, but idk if I like this girl either. Maybe at UBW goes on, I'll be able to understand the complaints though.

So Rin without twintails is the protagonist.Archer,Shirou and saber's synthesis is the new Saber.Lancer is still Lancer because he is already perfect...Illya looks meh.Where is Sakura tho?No Senpai,No Fate...

Type-Moon should expand their audience choice to both male and female audiences , for example , make this a visual novel targeted towards the female audience , that way it would have a balance that both male and female are suitable to play FSN and not just males . More over , I think the love story in this version would be more shoujo-ish rather than Shounen so it does appeal to both female and male. I personally think that as a girl, I would really prefer this version rather than the current version as it seems more darker ,and it makes more sense since Archer isn't that Over Powered here ( Which isn't fair for the other servants in the current version cause he practically doesn't really fight as in using swords or bow fight, which makes him seem a little useless if he were to really fight in one on one combat), besides it has Bishounens and Arthur is voiced by Takahiro Sakurai XDD

Wouldn't mind seeing a full series. Saw some things I liked (Servant designs, Master/Servant hierarchy), some things I didn't (Priest, difference in Arthur and Arturia's personality, apparent lack of human male love interests), and some things I was neutral on. All-in-all, would watch.

Wow, this was amazing! I'd love to watch an alternative universe based on this Fate/Prototype.
Yes, it's not the same Gilgamesh but, anyway, we have THAT Saber! All those battles looked so epic and dark!

Too bad it ignited my hype for nothing. Well, there are novels about Fate/Prototype (which I'm going to read)
but an anime adaptation would be great. Even in this 12 min OVA they explained the grail and the fact it is corrupted.

Yes, the MC doesn't look appealing, or interesting, but you could expect her to become something else
(and, yeah....sure there would be romance between her and saber...mark that =.= )

He's weak because he does not have Gae Bolg. In Prototype, Gae Bolg was even more OP, so it was sealed by his master the second he came.

Eh. Not sure if/how many have already mentioned this. But this being so popular in the positive sense kind of bothered me. The female Saber was a believable twist to history and she doesn't scream "generic shoujo character" in unrealistic armor. Most of the Heroes scream it in this version. That's Lancer's gimmick, gtfo. In this universe BG Rin and BG Saber don't exist. The Fate/Zero Rider (Best Guy) is gone too. All minuses. Archer now looks ridiculous. The concept of him being the ACTUAL Archer in UTW was suppose to be a twist in of itself. Hence the outlandish concept of how he was actually an Archer with his abilities.

It was also a lot more interesting to imagine his massive vault of heroic/legendary weapons just being hurled like phantom projectiles.
Because what's more imaginative? A cheap looking magical bow that fires cheap looking magical arrows from orbit from a barely armored "Warrior King of Heroes" from legend: because a king has ever been portrayed this way.
Or the fully gold-plated sinister King of Heroes with a massive vault of HIS own treasure to use HOWEVER he wants. Be it pulling out his favorite wine, a frikking magical airship or every legendary weapon known to date, including his own personal "Ea".

The only thing this really had going for it was the Ryougi Shiki lookalike MC seemingly flashing her cleavage each time she summoned the unrealistically armored generic shoujo male Saber. Lol.. Shirou is finally gone. Idfc if that's means his badass Heroic Spirit goes with him, so long as we can get rid of him. The voice of male Saber can at least imitate the "real" Saber's "EX.. CALIBUR" fairly well. But those minor pluses don't really make this rendition any better or worthwhile.

But opinions, of course. I'm sure everyone that loves this idea loved Re:Zero. Which is... fine. By all means, make Fate into a shoujo with a joke of darkness in the background. At least they didn't go full hentai in the one they actually went with. It at least felt serious through-out for the most part. I can't take these characters seriously.

This was far better than Fate/Stay and UBW, weird.
Also I dont care about those petty "but Fate/Stay and UBW were original with twists" fck that, I had a hard time swallowing the shit Fate gave me with Arthur turning out to be a woman, that was not cool, Im a big fan of Arthur so I wasnt that hyped hearing about a show that turned the badass knight into a woman that history made out to be man.
