| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- It was nice to see the knights of round table in action. Mordred <3 Did not expect the bath scene with Mash and Nitocris. The movie is as expected very fast-paced. This movie is for those who've played the original content. Would not recommend anyone new to Grand Order to start with this. Overall a decent movie. Looking forward to the 2nd part. |
| Looked fine mostly for a movie. Don't like how they've adapted Grand Order though. Camelot should've been made before Babylonia and there should've been proper context given to the setting besides First Order. Maybe an OVA for the first 5 singularities. Weak characterization, rushed story, large info dumb at the beginning, and self insert Ritsuka made this an incoherent mess. Bedievere and Arash are the only good parts 6/10 |

| I love Mordred, she's probably one of my favorite Fate servants and the only real highlight of Apocrypha, but even she couldn't add much to the boredom that was this movie. This sucked the life out of me. Grand Order anime just don't hit at all. |
| Welp, that was pretty underwhelming. People weren't exaggerating when they said that the Japanese reactions during the cinema release weren't exactly positive. |

That is a very weird thing to say considering the fact the very existence of Mordred in fate universe is boredom incarnate, she's basically Naruto, just with more yelling. |

That is a very weird thing to say considering the fact the very existence of Mordred in fate universe is boredom incarnate, she's basically Naruto, just with more yelling. At least in Apocrypha I found her to be a lot more entertaining to watch back then, especially when chilling with her master and the teamwork there. In a show where there was Jeanne d'Arc who I found to be boredom incarnate there along with Sieg, and so many useless servants with no personalities whatsoever, she actually brought some life to that show that I enjoyed for a little bit. Edit - Just saw the profile and didn't even realize you had Ruler in your favorites lol. Well that's awkward.... |
| This is probably the most 5/10 movie I've ever seen lol |
| For someone who never played FGO this movie is a mess and very annoying to watch especially if you watched Heaven's Feel III recently. I gave it a 5/10 because it was the most ok movie of Fate I ever watched it's probably better if you played the game. |

| Ah the journey of the gullible knight Bedivere. From loyal to being branded a traitor, a harsh path for righteousness. Can't wait to see the next part soon. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| they should've removed the lucius "mystery" if it was going to be revealed like 5-10 minutes later and before the chaldea crew even meet him ozy scenes were too rushed, should've kept the part where he berated chaldea for only arriving after the main conflict was over. felt like the movie was just ticking off a box with his scenes bedivere scenes were actually alright tho movie should've been 2hrs at least, rushed mess especially at the start |
| "I like young-girl sexual creations, Lolicon is just one hobby of my many hobbies," he says. I ask what his wife, standing nearby, thinks of his "hobby". "She probably thinks no problem," he replies. "Because she loves young boys sexually interacting with each other." |
| if they extend the action scenes to be more awesome for like 20 more minutes overall then this will be great but damn the action scenes are average but not bad i still wonder whats the goal of the Lion King though i do not play the Fate Grand Order game but ye i know singularities are like alternate timelines so King Arthur or King Artoria is evil in this singularity and she is a Lancer class eh Davinci and Nitocris are sexy hot |
| Man... this series as an anime could have turned out to be so great. This is Literally what you call lost potential. Sad to see Ozymandias's head falling and nitocris getting kidnapped was cut from the movie, also Ozymandias's personality is not like how I remember it from the game, same goes for nitocris. Sanzang's personality was reduced to a thin paper. Overall I really enjoyed watching the movie but its sad knowing it could have been really really better. |
| The animation is really not up to the mark considering this is a movie. Sorely disappointed. |
 |
| People saying this movie is bad. But we got a cuter and even more beautiful Da Vinci-chan than the past adaptations, see Nitocris, Sanzang in action, and the Artoria Lancer. Those appearances made fun to watch. The only minus is how Ozymandias just feels a bootleg Gilgamesh. Now I'm looking for the First Hassan appearance in the movie 2. |
 |
| Well, this was as bad as the japanese fans were saying. 4/10 no wonder it didnt sold blu rays. Let´s start with the good things: -Voice acting on point. Specially Mordred and Arash. -Gawain burning people alive. At least they kept some of the "graphic" scenes. That´s it. The animation was mediocre for the majority of the movie, and sometimes the movement was just clunky. In terms of adaptation this is absolutely horrible. Camelot takes around 11 hours of pure text to finish, so it was impossible to do everything right, but goddamn, they cut so many scenes and add some unnecessary stuff. Not only that, but you killed Touta and Hundred faces (which were important to the main plot) and due to that, they needed to change a lot (and I mean a lot) of the story to make the pieces fit. The more the movie advances, the more obvious it is. Then we have the fanservice, which was completely necessary, of course. To be honest, Stella was the only thing that could save some of the movie, but even if it was pretty (and again, voice acting was "stellar") the scene left a lot to be desired. It was the best part of the movie though. Now, I don´t expect almost anything out of the second movie, seeing that it´s also an hour and half long, but there are two scenes worth watching, so I wish they make them as good as they can. |
Taizaki-han said: Camelot is the sixth singularity. I'm confused. Which singularity did this movie took place? |
 |
| I thought it was good. Never played the game but I've watched most fate anime including Babylonia. It obviously doesn't compare to Babylonia but it doesn't deserve such a low score either. |
| I loved the last scene. Arash will be remembered. There are some scenes with great animation, like the last one, but the other scenes were just fine in movie standards. They cut a lot of stuff and made the movie bad. Nitocris was cute as always, I liked her and Mash's bath scene. I wanted to see more of Ozy. They should've made Camelot a longer movie or a full length tv series. Camelot deserved better :( |
|
| Extremely rushed adaptation that had a lot of scenes getting cut out, entire characters erased from the story and a lightning speed pacing that even I, as an FGO player, can see why people would be confused as fuck watching this. Just overall, terrible. A huge part of what makes Camelot so good in the first place are the characters so them getting fucked over like this is already a huge slap to the face. This is also what differentiates Camelot from Babylonia for me where the latter's focus and appeal was the scale and magnitude of the events compared to Camelot's interpersonal relationships. Sanzang and Tawara Touta??? What happened to the Hassan solidarity? Where are the Ozy and Nitocris' scenes? I could go on honestly. Even Da Vinci's scene was so laughable. They could've made this into a TV series like Babylonia or at least made it a trilogy to convey the singularity more effectively. The Heaven's Feel movies by any means weren't perfect as an adaptation but there was clearly a lot of passion put into it and overall, the result was an amazing adaptation of the route. This in comparison just feels hollow. Even the animation felt clunky at times and there were barely any standout fighting scenes which is one of the main appeals of Fate lets be real here lol. Not to mention that weird shift in art style in the middle of the movie rofl. Camelot deserved so much better omg. I'm glad at least, they actually made Ritsuka a bystander mc as intended and let Bedivere take the leading role. The character designs are also so much better than Babylonia, I'll give them that. Disappointed especially since this is my favorite singularity of all time (and yes that includes the Lostbelts as well currently released in NA at least). The final fight with Tristan and the Stella scene were the only good things from this movie (ToT) as expected from my man, Arash. All I can say is either play the game or read the singularity which is available on Youtube by the way if you wanna have a better understanding of Camelot. I'm actually hopeful for the second part of the movie since it looks like Production IG's main studio is gonna handle it. Not saying it's gonna save the entire adaptation but at the very least, I hope it'll redeem it a bit. Thots and prayers. |

| A bit rushed & missing some fun times like Arash Airlines, and the hijinks of all the Hassans getting drunk. Speaking of Hassan, I'm a little sad Hundred Faces wasn't around. I loved this singularity for having all the Hassans being able to show off for once. Oh well. Overall I liked it for what it is: something birthed because us players kept demanding it, but yeah bieng a series with how complex Camelot was would've helped. |

For example they should do just as you said and just drop Lucius "mystery". This movie despite short screentime focuses on the least relevant things for some reason instead of cutting them and doing something else. |

This. When it was announced Camelot would be a 2 part movie series it was obvious there would be plenty of cutting and trimming of the story and that it would feel more like a highlight-reel. But even with a limited run-time you can make a good adapatation. Personally I thought the way story events and the movie were arranged was fine. What was bad and made this movie so underwhelming was subpar directing. Everything just felt so static, lifeless and boring. Even the production wasn't as great as the names attached to this movie would lead you to expect which seems to indicate the planning for it was rough. Anyway, I am still excited for the second movie as it looks like it will be a night and day difference in quality when compared to the first one. Even some industry greats have been hyping it a lot for the past few weeks so it looks like it will be a spectacle. |
| Finally watched it.....well too bad for me I guess. I have seen, played and read many TM works. Some were boring, some had bad animation, bad gameplay, some took too long to get to the point, some made big mistakes and their flaws haunt us and the series to this day. But, with one exception being Extella Link(but really who gives a shit), none of them were so..... soulless. Even Last Encore and First Order had some feelings, some passion put into them. You could at least feel the emotions of the characters. So...wtf is this?The only good scene is Bedivere's Camlann nightmare. Going from Babylonia to this is just a -bad- joke. People kept talking about what ifs...what if they animate Septem and Orleans with better writing. Well....we now know that the opposite can happen as well. They brought Camelot down to the levels of the first singularities. Dialogue was nonsensical even for me who had played the game. Ozy's parts are probably the worst in the movie. Mash walking with the shield towards Tristan and Stella were the closest the movie got to me feeling anything. Bedivere/Mamoru is just saying stuff. Forget as an adaptation, this isnt good even as an anime movie. Even Deen's UBW movie, with all that cut content, had better directing that this. Da Vinci's sacrifice happened and we move on. Neither we nor the characters care. Arash's and Bedivere's dialogue are just nonsense. Ozy who is reskinned Gilgamesh in personality seems like a typical overbearing King that screams some bs. No charisma. Sanzang did a Raikou, so now we must care. Jesus, Cursed Arm cant show his emotions and I felt more from him than any other character. This shit doesnt even work as fanservice for the players. |
| Yeah as expected the majority of the story was cut out, leaving only the key moments. Definitely rushed and not friendly to non-fgo players. The action and OST was great though :D 6/10, would have been 7/10 if Arash Airlines was included lol |

| As a Fate fans that doesn't play the mobile FGO, I find this movie actually fun and weird at the same time (I watched Journey to the West on my childhood and seen Xuanzang as hot babe with skill of Wukong confuse the heck out of me). It's still an enjoyable watch with it's variety of servants. Definitely would look forward for the sequel. 7/10 |
| The movie is so rushed, really really rushed. The interactions don't feel natural at all, they feel so forced to get the plot moving forward. Things happen too fast I bet fgo non-players won't understand anything or be confused. I literally feel nothing after I watched this. It could be babylonia tier or beyond it if this was a series. Babylonia is so good! |
| Based Certified. I love anime armpits. |
| Very average and underwhelming in comparison to main (not sure if it should be called main and this one not) season. The first hour felt completely pointless yet the plot felt rushed. If anyone knows, why different works were assigned for different studios?! So weird how all look different, this one in particular the designs look so differently weird after watching Babylonia, really not a fan for this one. Fujimaru looks like some character from Pokemon or Digimon ... Also if i understand correctly this one is before Babylonia so should i assume that Da Vinci was resummoned somehow. Mb small nitpick, when they crashed in the beginning, why Fujimaru was trying to lift the vehicle when Mash could've done it in the first place, so weird ... I assume that it was the same assasin as FSN, didn't expect to see him as a good guy. Overall 6/10 felt very underwhelming, was thinking about watching it later with the second one. Glad watched now cause didn't really miss anything (won't miss anything later). |

| Holy clusterfuck. I knew this was going to be bad, since it took me 4-5 times tries to get into this movie, but you can easily see when the production took a nose dive whether it was due to budget, time, or motivation...and that was from the very beginning. While I hadn't reached this chapter in the game, I could kind of get a gist of where this was going ever since the release of Babylon... and to be honest...even though I was hopeful for FGO the movies - the story arcs have not delivered. What was worse was this entire movie, I couldn't help but attempt to draw parallels to Babylon in order to keep my boredom -- and also confusion distracted. Atleast there, we had Gilgamesh -- who seemed atleast consistent with his arrogance. Ozymandias, on the other hand -- while delivered great given the circumstances, I couldn't get a read on what the purpose of his personality is. Is he foolhardy? Has he given up and just accepted that he's Messiah only because there is no Messiah coming?? Yeah.....uh....I didn't really figure out anything from the Sun-God other then it's either follow the roboticized Arthur, or .... bask...in the glory of the cup? Honestly, even at that -- the movie blurred my understanding of what the purpose of the cup is ACTUALLY for. Obviously Fujimaru drooled for it, understandably so. But why did that trigger whatever....Ozymandia's little brief tantrum for? Is this acknowledging that the cup has been carrying the village not him? Or...? Not sure. Because, even then I feel like this arc just played down that the Holy Grail literally isn't omnipotent. I feel like maybe I shouldn't have said that phrase -- that phrase feels....like it might be the summary of the franchise, but I'm unironically and not sarcastically sure. Tldr; It sucks that I watched Babylon first, but it takes no smart-eye to notice that this was a D-tier production. Everyone's seemingly pointing out the animation taking a nose dive, and that does seem to be the case. I couldn't help but notice that Mashu's eyes looked so weird the entire movie....unless it's intended to show her inner...conflict thing she's having. Reinvented Da Vinci looked really cute though. More feminine and more sassy like I'd associate a female Da Vinci to be.....maybe it's the eyebrows But really, I think this movie really just put into broad daylight that the planning/pacing/directing of this series -- was basically...undecided...the entire time. The pacing, without going to google the real history actually left a bad taste in my mouth. Probably the only rejuvenating factor is reading a bit more into Mashu's hero's history in real life, and they drawing on the subtle details. That and this (...is it official?) ship between Arash and Bedivere. Their chemistry -- and Bedivere's coming of his current self was pretty cool to see. minus the aggravating fact that Bedivere lowkey lost sight of his end goal after he burned his hand too many times . I think the added touch that Arash and Bedivere were both heroes in history who were...there at the end of an era? really show in that broship they had. It's more of a props to the original story, but I love how they were able to repeat history -- explaining that Arash is known for ending the Persian(?) war, and then being able to destroy human purity....or human forgiveness? something something cool pointy phantasm that saves humanity somehow It felt weird that he ended that singularity or is it called an irregularity since it didn't have any reverberating effects, when it takes Fujimaru and gang 120000x as long to squash even smaller bugs, but I really should stop nitpicking while I'm ahead so I can walk out of this atleast enjoying a part of this movie. Yes......I have questions... and also just am making it apparent to myself, that I've not only NOT figured out the deeper basic lore behind Chaldea/how we got here in FGO, but also....am just now annoying myself with questions that only appeared because the poor direction of this movie makes all previous content feel recycled - EXCEPT....I think I would have been happier if they ACTUALLY recycled some of the animation from Babylon versus just giving --what they gave. P.S. One more thing: the power of virginwholesome Mashu energy being able to protect everyone from everything including inpure kisses, is just...utterly.... cute, but facepalmarmor. |

| Production of this movie was below average considering it was a movie and a FGO movie at that but it was still nice to see these scenes animated nonetheless. |
 |
| It's been a while since I last saw anything from this arm of the franchise, so I was taken aback by how powerless the protagonists are. This entire movie they're basically just running away. In the end I'd still say it's watchable, but only just. |
| I wouldn’t say it’s bad but at some point it feels pretty rushed to the point of bad so bad? It’s fate so I can’t really hate it |
