Great episode! Animation looks good, but it seems Unlimited Blade Works looks better. Gonna wait for BD's to make a final judgement.

So it seems this is an alternate timeline on what happens when the 3rd war disappeared. I wonder if we'll see Shirou and Tohsaka here, but I kinda like how this one focuses on different characters and timeline.

Waver is here though, so anything is possible.

Can't wait for the next episode!

Let us read right off Shirou’s Wiki page.

Despite any more training, even when following Rin to the Mage's Association, he will never leave the level of a magus apprentice. Should Rin be given a ranking ranging from seventy to one hundred as a magus, Shirou would only rank as a ten. Ranked within the classification as a specialist spellcaster, he would be received as someone on par with Kiritsugu’s evaluation as a "Magus Killer" with a rank of forty.

Clearly, a massive weakling.



That's talking only about his ranking as a magus, he isn't fit to be a proper magus but someone who fights employing magic as a tool, a specialist like Kiritsugu was. I don't see how that makes him a "massive weakling"

Three minutes of mindless action and gore; more than ten minutes of lazy exposition; some evil dudes discussing their evil master-plan while playing chess and finally a pretty looking summoning.

And nobody gives a damn about it.

i expected a changes in this series factory, although in the start advice that this anime it will not be about master, servants and Saints plot, it wil be about about persons, but how advanced the episode was a tipical a "fate" episode!!!
A little dissapointing with this first episode, but in general was a 7/10....

I could not look at this one anime series, from the works of the Type-Moon. The beginning was exciting, but without continuing on the straight line, I liked the introductory explanation. I just hope that the quality of the drawings, the animations and the rest does not fall suddenly during the season.

Not a bad start. I'm a sucker for Fate just by its premise alone, but I can see some fun things happening here just from the concept of an actual holy grail war.

I'm disappointed that the show felt the need to literally show us what's coming in the future. It tells me that the writers are worried the first couple episodes are going to be boring which isn't a good sign. None the less while the animation in that battle isn't Ufotable, it trying really hard to pretend it is and its actually working.

I also enjoy that one of the characters apparently has the same name as a giant rainbow lion robot.

Hmm I guess this was alright. Action sequences and character designs are top quality for sure, but the exposition bits are a bit boring. Pretty sure Fate/Zero had longer conversations that felt like half the duration of those here.

I heard this becomes a trainwreck later on but I'll continue watching anyway.

Action quite cool tho bit chaotic. Heard it becomes a mess & I can see how already. 14 servants, 14 masters, golem armies, mage groups, priests, could be too many characters. Cool designs with some servants.

How can anyone who enjoyed FSN like this? Over the top rediculus action, extremely generic looking, animation worst than the older series, no soul. FSN had such great characters and setting. Modern day anime is just so shit compared to what we had.

So now we got Arthur's daughter. Looks different though than the one I see on FSN flashback.

That was a lot of information, couldn't quite follow everything in the first half. Though it seems that this time we have a team of 7 servants against another team of 7 servants.

Twat who has to use fingers to count to 14 who bumped into generic big "cool dude in shades". And I really don't care if he's not the only MC, I've seen enough.

That's... not even an Apocrypha character. He's an anime-origianl cameo from Fate/Strange Fake. We most likely not even going to see him again.

I understand where that poster is coming from, though. When I first saw that blond boy bumping into Shishigou I was also terrified that he was going to be the main character.

4. Boy and girl get together.
...
Shirou establishes a romantic relationship with only one girl throughout the story and ends up going out with her.

The UBW anime doesn't show boy and girl getting together. It shows boy and girl awkwardly fumbling around each other until the very end, and then hops to a ridiculously coy and ambiguous epilogue.

I would have gladly rated the UBW anime a whole point higher if it hadn't been so cowardly with the romance. That romance was promising and had great moments, but fizzled terribly near the end IMO.

This show looks very interesting, though. I am loving Shishigou and Mordred. :D

Okay first episode with decent action animation. Nothing too creative or insane but good enough for A1. Apo's (only) strength is the fighting so hopefully it is kept up on this level.

Otherwise quite typical content as expected. Some character designs bug me in the wrong way but oh well. Characters are nothing to write home about but that is to be expected so hopefully at least the content of the characters that I liked gets handled well before it all goes to shit. Since its full two cour adaptation maybe add some anime original material to those characters that get shafted latter on. Would be cool but I am not gonna expect that.

Cinematography and music side of things also does not stand out. Its all competent enough for this adaptation I guess, at least it is not as bad as FGO OVA was, even though bot adaptations have similar intent(marketing) and both production teams clearly were not out to make anything too grand or stunning.

Let's just hope all the action animation remains top notch to make it worth putting up to all the utterly dumb things to come in this story.

7/10

Gasp! Do my eyes deceive me? A post from this guy where he actually DOESN'T HATE the thing he's talking about? I've read a lot of the Fate discussion threads here, and this is a first for me. :D

It is the start of Great Holy Grail War with 14 servants and masters competing. Episode 1 was exciting. It got me interested for the series.

Wow, this looks great! It's got the vibes of if Lord El Melloi's case files was a more traditional fate show. Love it. Also, the sounds design is INSANE
- Weird opening minute, will probably make sense at the end of the series
- Looks like an all out war between two sword users and their armies? Also will probably happen later (wow! that choreography tho)
- Shishigou from case files lookin like our main character! Love that (He ran into that blonde kid from it too!)
- WAVER IS PRESENT IN THIS ANIME WOOOO
- So, in this timeline, someone named Darnic stole the grail in the third war?
- Ah, a team deathmatch. Very interesting! So, red vs black / clocktower vs Yggdmillennia / London vs Romania!!!
- The other master's on the red team look... bland. Other than that priest with the white hair, he looks awesome
- Whoah WHOAHHHH, The person running this is named "Shirou"? HMMMM
- Darnic's servant looks awesome! Looks like a caster who controls Golems.
- Artificial master's so the servants always have a master? Thats OP
- Yooooo Shishigou summons Mordred, successor of Artoria? I like that.
- Looks like the antagonist group is summoning all of their servants.
- A girl seems to be possessed willingly by a new class of servant?
