| season 2, then season 1 don't listen to these contrarians please |
 |
| Start with episode 12 of Season 2, then from episode 5 of Season 1 backwards, after reaching episode 1, shift to Season 2's episode 1 halfway through and watch it all the way to episode 11, then finish with the second half of Season 1's episode 1. |

| I came here to say season 1 then season 2 but since I see others who came here before me I'll answer more or less seriously. What you are talking about is called the "fate series" and Fate/Zero is just a part of it. I would recommend starting with Fate/Zero (season 1 then 2 of course) then watching Fate/Stay Night UBW. The 2006 Studio Deen version sucks. Then go with Fate/Apocrypha and Fate/kaleid. Here is a nice guide from MAL And here is a little graph to help you out through the whole universe (Because the fate series is more than just animes) https://www.deviantart.com/kuroshinikami/art/Timeline-of-Fate-Series-690820702 |
| watch fate/zero but dont watch any other fate, they are all garbage |
Laciani said: Especially Fate Kaleid. Fu*k That. Kaleid has better Servant battles than Zero, and so does Apocrypha. Change my mind. |
especially the 3 stay night routes. |
i mean g/o is not part of fsn, but yeah it will still be garbage |
| just watch the last episode of season 2 the rest doesn't matter |
| NO OP, Don't listen to those ppl!!! start with season 3 first!! |
| Fate/Zero has 2 seasons. The order is obvious. Since that’s obvious, I’m gonna assume you’re talking about the Fate Series. If so, the order you should watch is: 1. Fate/Zero Season 1 & 2 2. Fate/Stay Night (2006) (this is optional though since it’s not that good and UBW and HF are alternate versions, tho if you love Fate go ahead) 3. Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works (UBW) 4. Fate/Stay Night: Heaven’s Feel Movies Every other Fate iteration like Apocrypha, Extra, Kaleid, and the Grand Order OVAs (just play the damngame instead of watching these tho. I tried one and it was pretty shit) are all just spinoffs and aren’t connected plot-wise to Zero and the Stay Nights. Also watch Carnival Phantasm, that is one of the comedy anime’s and the best spoof one I’ve seen. It’s only 10 minutes an ep too so it won’t take long to binge. |
Do-do-donuts, let’s go nuts! |
Sorry fam, but that first Lancer vs. Saber. It was just too beautiful and well made. Plus I was too sad after the Iskander/Gilgamesh fight ;-; F for my boy |
Do-do-donuts, let’s go nuts! |

  |
| You should start with episode 13 season 1, watch the first season in reverse. For season 2, start with episode 7, then watch 1-6 and lastly skip 8 and watch 9-12. |

| Just watch all the Fates in a random order and once you finished them all decide for yourself what the best watch order is. |
This is literally the best order to watch the fate series. |
 cunnysseur |
| Just avoid Fate altogether...it’s a black hole that will suck you in and once you’re in, there is no escape. |
| Watch the last episode of season 2 and work your way back to the first episode of season 1. |
 |
You mean the fight that end almost instantly? Gil vs Herc is more entertaining than that. Fate Zero is overrated as hell. |

Thanks for the info! I am gonna watch in chronological order right now, i was really confused first time i watched it but now i will finally understand what's happening. |
 |
| Is this thread still going? lmao. And guys, OP asked in what order to watch Fate/Zero not Fate series. Smh guys, read it properly. |
Laciani said: KaiserNazrin said: You mean the fight that end almost instantly? Gil vs Herc is more entertaining than that. Fate Zero is overrated as hell. -Yes -Nope -Fate Zero totally deserve that praise. - It wasn't even worth calling it a fight. - Yes - Fate Zero is overrated and doesn't deserve that praise. |

| Watch it like this Fate/zero Fate/stay night 2006 Fate/setay night unlimited blade works TV series Fate/Apocrypha Fate/Extra (you can skip this, but I among the few that liked it) Fate/stay night heaven's feel 3 movies (only 1 movie is out is far) Don't listen to those who tell you that Apocrypha is bad. It had like many of the best fights I've in fate series (Note: I said best fights, not best animation) Fate/kaleid is good if you want fate series with loli and fanservies (it still have some serious moments and good fights) |
Iskandar vs. Gilgamesh was just too short. And it is not the best fight in fate/zero. Kotomine vs Kiritsugu fight was better What I like about Fights Apocrypha is that fights are longer, so intense and more destructive. And also that boxing fight between red rider and black archer was amazing I never understood why some people even hate Apocrypha. It is like of the top action anime I've seen. |
KaiserNazrin said: - It wasn't even worth calling it a fight. - Yes - Fate Zero is overrated and doesn't deserve that praise. maybe its overrated, but at least its not a total pile of hot shit like every single other fate |

 This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi! I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom: "Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news. Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people. Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation. There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime. You should be watching Carole & Tuesday." |
| Ah, so you wanna get into the Fate series m8? Allow me to impart you with wise words my fellow comrade once told me: Shrimperor said: Look, the intended Watch-order is as follows Carnival Phantasm -> Prisma Illya -> Tsukihime -> Kara no Kyoukai -> Fate/Zero -> Fate/SN 2006 -> UBW Movie (->UBW Anime -> HF Movies) Why? Simple Carnival Phantasm will introduce the Character that you will get to know during your Journey in the Nasuverse. Prisma Illya will then explain magic, universe and Stuff. Tsukihime and KnK will expand your knowledge on the Universe, magic and Stuff. Now we come to the main Story, Fate/Zero, the one and only true HGW stroy. After that comes the After story, Fate /Stay night, and i tell you here right now, watch the 2006 version, atleast it's finished and you don't have to wait, + you get Saber and latex Sakura, can it get any better?. Now, to get to know the 2nd best Character in the Nasuverse, Archer, you watch the UBW movie. UBW Anime and HF movies are optional. Also, DO NOT read the VN, it's just a porn game. A minor addition: I recommend playing FGO after Carnival Phantasm, as it explains the lore better than Prillya does. With that being said, have fun man~ |

| Jesus...this thread. Yeah, the Fate Series is pretty confusing to start. If you're just asking about Fate/Zero, there's only two seasons. And you can just watch them normally (everyone here talking about episode order is making a joke about how confusing the actual series is ordered). If you're asking about how to start the actual Fate series then...just make it simple and watch it in release order. Everyone will argue about what follows chronologically and what versions to skip and stuff like that. I watched them all in release order and that works for a lot of people. Decide for yourself what to skip based off description or stuff like that I didn't include what hasn't aired yet, and left out a majority of the specials and ovas. |
| For the Fate series just watch 'Today's menu for the Emiya family' and 'Carnival Phantasm'. Then watch all the awesome animated fights on youtube and you should be fine. |
| Lol i got more confused reading all the comments because I'm also planning on watching the fate series in like few weeks |
BourBon-7so said: Lol i got more confused reading all the comments because I'm also planning on watching the fate series in like few weeks Same...I'll just, figure it out myself lmao |
ᐢ. .ᐢ₎ ₊˚⊹♡ |
| @BourBon-7so, @lzuma, ufotable's Fate/Zero is always going to be the starting point. If you enjoy that you can go into ufotable's Fate/SN: UBW, and if by that point you're really enjoying your investment into the series, you can check out the different Stay Night timelines by following ufotable's Heaven's Feel, and the original from Studio Deen in 2006 Fate/SN. |
 I don't believe in the Devil. You should. He believes in you. |
Zelkiiro said: The flashy, fast, and empty fights of Kaleid <<< the slower, meatier, and narratively meaningful fights of Zero. I disagree, obviously - with the exception of the parts I bolded. Kaleid's fights are plenty narratively meaningful, and plenty 'meaty' (whatever the hell that means). Sure, Fate/Zero's are too. But Fate/Zero's fights never felt like Servant battles to me. Servants, as described in the VN, are overwhelming in every way - skill, strength, and speed. Zero has lots of the first two, but is severely lacking in the last. It looks great, don't get me wrong, and you'll never catch me saying that the action scenes are bad. But they just don't feel like Servant battles, and Kaleid's do. So do Apocrypha's, and UBW, and Heaven's Feel. |
