I am unfamiliar with Sailor Moon.

What kind of bullshit was it and how bs was it on the bs scale? Character inconsistency? Or some fundamental universe rules have been broken?

I don't think Fate/ will suffer from those.

Character who had to die in a very gruesome way apparently did not die and the whole thing was uber-censored.

I can already think of a scene in UBW where Ufotable can fuck up like that.

Also, when you think a bit about it, it's pretty easy to understand Toei's decision to censor you-know-who's death considering the show's supposed to be (very) kid-friendly. Something that UFOtable has no reason whatsoever to be concerned about when it comes to Fate/. I think.

Except that the show is not supposed to be kid friendly

Kirei and Illya get enough attention in HF, o need to add it in UBW.

Gil gets a lot attention in UBW.

Only Saber really gets a silent treatment, which is solved by adding some flashbacks and dialogues from fate about her past and spelling out ow she comes to view it.

I still wish they did a fate route. Even though I enjoyed Deens version I still would have liked to see ufotable take on it since people says deens version was messy. I also like saber more then rin as rin never stuck me as interesting and what from what I read online saber kinda takes a back seat in this one to rin.

Meh, I think it's the fault of DEEN's anime for focusing way too much on the pairing. I mean sure it's Saber's route and all but still <_<

Anyway it is unfair to judge that Saber is more interesting than Rin when you've only seen one third of the story (which was butchered too).

<- such person (btw, Rin is the best)

Compared to UBW and HF, Fate lacks in epicness. But in the terms of storytelling, it is totally on par with them, and (in my opinion) overcomes them in terms of genre balance.

I think most of people who will watch this already saw FZ, so Gil and Kirei are obviously villains. If we have newbies, no problem, just tell them go and watch FZ (or play the VN and get spoiled)

Well, I was actually hoping for an adaptation that can be watched first (DEEN does not count) so that I can finally stop separating people into those who read VNs and those who don't.
Seems, my wish will not be granted and I shall not rejoice...

Then again, we see bot as soon as prologue and we have gil show up in prologue so its less of "out of owhere" and more of "oh thats who it was".

Its no different than Tsukihime villains.

Rin's story is split between UBW and HF. Her development in Fate happens in the background. "Interesting" is subjective anyway, but considering Saber isn't really well written compared to Rin, I'd say it's easy to understand why more people find Rin to be more interesting than Saber. Most people I know already fell for Rin after reading the Prologue. Rin is FSN's deuteragonist, or at least the closest one you'll get.

If there is an argument about girls and one opinion is based on the original work, and the other on a quite bad adaptation, you either

He finds many things hard to accept, if it disagrees with his view. Up until the end, he honestly thought Aoi was a heartless mother who gave away Sakura without hesitation and Kariya had no ulterior motives when he decided to participate in the war to win the Grail. Yeah...

Hehe, the fact that Kirei is a villain can be guessed even before Shirou meets him in person.


But the things like who they are and why they do what they do are explained well in Fate, and almost completely omitted (for redundancy) in UBW. And that's what I'm afraid of in skipping Fate.
And also don't forget about Ilya, who totally deserves Fate memories before making her second appearence in UBW.

But well, ufotable can somehow show the characters throughout the story more and that can solve the problem.

Gil's reasons for using the Grail are actually elaborated in UBW, but the rest is true I guess. I don't think Ilya will have much more screen time though. Her flashback with Berserker is for the moment enough. She'll get her deserved time in HF. Hopefully.

Rin gets that in the prologue.
Shirou the same plus in each route.
Kirei is split in 3 in the routes,but HF and UBW are enough.
Sakura in HF obviously.
Gil and Ilya as C-core said.

There is no real problem there.Unless if ufotable just doesnt care.

This has gone out of hand <_<

What I meant to say:
Fate/ Stay Night is Fate, UBW and HF.

You have only seen Fate, which
a) Focuses on Saber more (since it's her route).
b) Due to being a shitty adaptation it focused on Saber more than it was supposed to.
c) Because of a and b, Rin is somewhat neglected in DEEN's anime.

Now with that in mind, you're following comment
souledge94 said:

Is invalid. Why?
Because
a) You're basing your judgement on only 1/3rd of the whole thing, which was butchered.
b) Fate is not where Rin shines, but it's where Saber has most of her moments. And even then DEEN managed to make things worse for Rin.

Also there's no need to worry about Saber taking a back seat in UBW because you don't like Rin since UBW should make you like her.

I've only watched Fate/Zero and it's one of my favorite anime so I'm really looking forward to the F/SN anime. My reaction would depend on how much they develop Shirou. Rin was already well developed in F/Z so I don't mind as much.
