Which really isn't hard to do since F/SN was nothing speci- *gets shot* It doesn't suck that much but it does give Fate stay night a bad name. But yeah it does suck when you compare it to the original. |

| I want to confirm something from Sakura's spoiler |
| Yes, very impressive ufotable. Animation is superb as well as fight scenes looks well animated judging by that absolutely gorgeous opening. My body is ready for this. This will be fun. Also dat WORMS!! poor Sakura. |
| Waver's Grandmother falls over and no one seems to care. Really caring family... Other then that it was awesome and I loved the scene at the end while the servants where bring summoned. FSN lacked that kind of epicness. |

superzombie23 said: This series seems like it's being set up well. It felt like it was around that sweet spot of not being noticeably cliche or trying to grab your attention as the first episode; basically, it is the way you should start a long epic story. The environments and the way everyone is presented and talks is very filmic and not over the top, which creates that style that makes KnK stand out. This was also like a wet dream for someone like me who read the Heaven's Feel route. Seeing all the rooms, worms, and characters not shown in the DEEN anime is amazing. I kinda feel bad for people who didn't play the Heaven's Feel route that watch this. I did not read FZ, but glad I held off because I like being in store for a surprises in good anime adaptations. Totally agree |
| This entire episode made my day. I had a shitty day today but watching this first episode of FZ tonight made the entire day worth it. Also, Rin is the best Type-Moon girl ever. Personally, Im rooting for that low-class magus that stole the relic the English guy was supposed to get. That teacher was a dick. I know more or less how it ends up, though, but its still fun picking a side. I want to be a magus. :( |
| Blergh. |
| Looks like this is going to be pretty good, but I'm not as fanatical about it as everyone else is. Definitely looks like it will be better than fate/stay night (which I thought was just ok). I know the VN is supposed to be better, but I don't care to play it at the moment (as much as I would like to try out some VNs, they are a major time sink). |
| i am so surprised at ppl that call it boring.sure at some point of this ep they start reviewing all the masters/servants and stuff but before and after that is pure awesomeness. after illya's birth we have the part with tokiomi and Risei going around kotomine to force him to join forces with tokiomi and got suprised that he accepted so quickly... then we have creepy zouken with Kaiji's Archenemy's Voice actor plus Sakura's dark childhood. and then one of the most interesting masters of fate/zero,velvet.then at the end we have summoning scenes plus nostalgic saber dialogue!(imo the OP was good too)if it was F/SN casts it would be boring but these pairs sure deserve more !!! |

| I was yawning a bit in the beginning then I came buckets in the end. Breathtaking animation indeed. I hope the quality won't get worse. |
 |
| Fuck yes Fate. |
| Iri, what a MILF. |
 |
| one of the best opening ep ever exellent stuff. |

 |
| I was really impressed with the first episode!!!!! |
  |
| The build up seems like that this is gonna be fucktastic. Really excited for the next episode. |
| I read the VN before, but the animation and delivery from ufotable and of course, writer Urobochi Gen for original materials, this first episode was a spectacle. Loved the scene at the end with all the masters doing their summons. |
DrHouse said: I see so when they adapt that Route in Fate/Stay Night it will be another hard one to pass. Already my limit was passed with Unlimited and that heart part with Gilgamesh.Yumekichi11 said: Yes, it's true. I want to confirm something from Sakura's spoiler DrHouse said: The grail was from the 3rd war? Or we are talking about the one from this one?In fact, Seriously Sakura + the spoiler |
Yumekichi11 said: Seriously Sakura + the spoiler Could you possibly overreact more? It's not that big of deal (not necessarily a spoiler, but whatever) |
| The artstyle was fantastic! I really hope it remains that way for the rest of the show. Despite the huge amount of dialogue and the complete lack of action scenes I wasn't bored one second nor did I have problems to follow the plot. As a introduction episode it fulfully succeeded. |
 |
| As i excepted its awesome. |
 |
| As expected of Fate/Zero made by ufotable, the production values were very high, the characters very interesting and correctly introduced and the darkness of the title beautifully rendered on screen (and music I must say). Fantastic start. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |

Ehx said: Yeah but he is shown already being insane as it is. You mean what happens to Sakura as being due to the impact the story has on him. Yumekichi11 said: Seriously Sakura + the spoiler Could you possibly overreact more? It's not that big of deal (not necessarily a spoiler, but whatever) That I could understand as I see things unfold. I already what the worst shit might be and yeah I overact but only due to my emotions being strong. Forget about Unlimited reaction and first time reactions to the sequel of this. |
| I never read Fate/zero before but holy crap this was awesome. That 'I ask of thee, art thou my master?' with Kajiura's BGM in background sent shivers down my spine. |
| Damn... Poor Kariya. Anyway nice episode. |
| Waver was brilliant. 'Jeez, do I have them hypnotize them AGAIN?' I hope ufotable maintains the high standards as this episode for the rest of the episodes. Those detailed backgrounds... I love ufotable. Again. ^^ |

Guess you could say the first avatars of Saber from this series are out: this is just one but rest with other GIFs: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=334029&show=0#post1 we going to make this series something to make graphs from. Well I am at least going to try and pump out lots. Is there any way to change servants? I have a bad feeling for Berserker being chosen on such a weak Master. Berserker was good for Illyasvield in Fate Night Stay but that's only only because she was young but this person is worn out. More over I am not sure those worms would contribute in helping him. kaimax said: Oh ROFL! I just compiled GIFs to be done of that but I am too tired to do them. Later I shall and put them into the club but euh there is like 4 summons so where are the other 3? |
| Finally after 4 long LONG years of wait Fate/Zero is here. Gotta say the quality was superb, SUPERB I SAY. The first episode was really well done as the elaborated alot about the background information. And finally i still gotta say THIS SERIES GETS ME SO PSYCH MY BODY IS LITERALLY SHACKING WITH EXCITEMENT. Good thing my 5/6months break is coming soon so i can watch this without a care in the world :D |

Berserker was good for Illyasvield in Fate Night Stay but that's only only because she was young but this person is worn out.

amirhoss said: Yeah but means doing that kind of situation. It sounds complex. I do remember that exception being done. I wonder if there will be a situation like that in this series? Would be nice to see how one is performed during the 4th war.Yumekichi11 said: Is there any way to change servants? I have a bad feeling for Berserker being chosen on such a weak Master.

Damn right the price is too high and Sakura also has that burden now. Damn fucking old shit bastard needs a eternal rest before he could do what he did to Sakura. The worms are already enough to give me nightmares. I am tired good night to you! |
| Gotta be honest, I didn't really like this until the summoning scene kicked in..and then it ended. D: I shall give this anime a huge chance though. And I haven't seen Fate/Stay Night either (aside from the first episode) so this is pretty much all new to me, maybe it'll take me longer to get into than it will for most people. =/ But I must say I love Waver and shoot me if you must but he reminded me a bit of young Severus Snape lol. |

 When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. |

Its as accurate as a portrait of you done by 4 year old child. It completelly glosses over major and important points, misses the main motivation behind Shiro, strips the hsow form all its deeper meaning and then completely fucks it all up with the last half of series. DEEN produced FSN never ever ever should be mentioned in front of those who actually care for fate franchise and overall nasuverse. The end. --------------------------------- As for episode, good to see a decent fate adaptation, bu tit kind of makes me sad that FSN never ever ever ever got this kind of treatment. One can only hope that FSN remake will be made one day by these same folks who are doing fate/zero. And then maybe one day someone will actually make an adaptation of Tsukihime. Its the only work to not even have an adaptation right now :[ 5/5 |

| And with exposition out of the way, I look forward to an action packed 24 weeks. |

The worms are already enough to give me nightmares. I am tired good night to you! as Zouken told in this ep Karyia didn't had any serious training.he could be a gr8 magi if he had trained before that is why zouken was mad at him and the fact that he could get rdy in this short time even with zouken's help is considered amazing itself if u compare it with some other masters but adding berserker enhancement to his summoning was too much in that condition. |

And no 1 hr and 40 min like the UBW movie(I can't believe how badly they killed the UBW route). |

| God damn that was a pretty episode. Can't wait to see more. |

NO.. specially the fail attempt of showing a little stuff from the other routes. That caster arc was just bullshit. Why would they do the Sakura/Rin think in a fate route adaptation? Seriously Deen.. |
|
| looks awesome really worth watching!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| This was awesome, I freakin' love it. Welcome back saber! Though I gotta ask, Will all of the episodes be that long or was it just this one? Really curious. |

You should read the VN if you want to know what ultimately happens to her.DrHouse said: I see so when they adapt that Route in Fate/Stay Night it will be another hard one to pass.
