Yes. Or you won't feel the same impact that is meant to be felt. HF without context isn't all that great imo.

At least Fate route, which is the length of 1 anime cour. UBW should... sorta... be ok with only UfoUBW.

I'd read FATE and UBW route in the VN before the H/F movies.

However, at this point it's tough to say. If the H/F movie(s) is/are good, then it's probably recommended to not read H/F before watching it as anime with the proper atmosphere is awesome. However, if the H/F movie(s) is / are garbage, then it's recommended to just read the VN because otherwise the movie(s) would just spoil it.

In short, can't tell until H/F movie(s) come(s) out.

So you're saying there are going to be more than 1 HF movie?

No one knows, but I'm sure most will be disappointed if it's one movie. It didn't work out so well when another studio did that.

Physically it's impossible to adapt whole HF into one movie if you don't want disaster that was DEEN UBW movie. But who knows, everything is possible...

It's not known. Hopefully. Considering that Nasu doesn't even recognize the UBW movie as an adaptation, he probably feels that a movie isn't enough for an entire route, especially as H/F is the longest route.

I personally am hoping for something like what KnK has, which would be ~ 7 movies. And no censoring.

That's what I was thinking. But if what you're saying is a possibility, then playing the route isn't a must. (?) Because the movie (s) will most likely fill in most or all of what happened in the route.

Playing the previous routes is a must if you want to experience everything about HF.

Going by the current adaptation..in order to enjoy it completely you should rather play the VN to get maximum enjoyment.

Well, if you're going to read Fate and UBW, you might as well read HF. Actually, reading whole VN is always a best option (yeah, I know that it's long - 30 hours is not a small thing).

But if you just want to gather enough information before HF movie(s) come out, Fate route should be enough.

First option is useless imo, since I already read it. I'll just read HF then.

You....read HF without reading the other two routes?
What, how can you even do that? You need to unlock it.

2012 version has all 3 routes as separate games, so you don't need to unlock it.
Which is a shame, because some of the options are lost (Use Command Spell on day 3, for example).

HP Shinji? Doesn't matter if it's canon or not as long as it's good. At the very least I can still pick apart everything and point out all that's wrong, which already makes it worthwhile.

Ah. Thought there were more original scenes which made Fai disregard the manga almost entirely.

Tbh I think they should have made a Fate route manga instead since HF is getting a movie adaptation. But eh, this is what we got.

Watching UBW is a must if you're not going to read the novel. Reading the visual novel would definitely make HF a better experience, but that's definitely not a requirement. UBW covers some of the stuff that you miss if you skip Fate, so UBW suffers more than HF will. But it's still fine anyway, so there's nothing to worry about if you're not interested in the vn imo.

I'm sure UFO will make HF movies accessible enough for people who've only watched Zero and UBW anime. People who've read the VN will just get more out of the movies than the average viewers.

Also keep in mind that to play HF properly, you have to play Fate route first and then UBW route. Zero and UBW anime won't be enough to actually reading through the entirety of HF Route.

I think if you like Fate series enough to post in this subforum, you'll enjoy the VN regardless of its length and pacing tho.
