The animation is pretty good (will CloverWorks be able to keep producing sakuga sequences like these?)

But the first episode hasn't really established a compelling premise. All we know is the protagonist are gonna kill some monsters to restore world order, but there is no indication whether the main characters have any sort of personal stake in it. The characterisation is very thin. Nothing about the main characters is interesting so far, unless you're already a huge fan of the game and you'd be satisfied just to see them animated.

Will give it another episode to see if the characterisation gets better.


Mash big development came on the events prior to Babylonia. Her last bit of development will come after this, so not on her front. Master is always Master, since it's the main character from a game.

The character development is mostly for the people you meet through your journey. In this case characters like Ishtar, Gilgamesh, Merlin and so on.

Da Vinci isn't a girl, he's just in a girl's body you could say. He takes the form of Mona Lisa.

And isn't Rin, it's what you call a 'pseudo-servant', they can't be summoned the regular way, they need to take someone's body as a vessel. They'll explain that further later, as there's more pseudo-servants.

Also questioning language in anime is just stupid since it's pretty common for it to all be in Japanese, just makes sense, even if they have to make up for it with some system that automatically translates and stuff of the sort.

This first episode is...quite fast.
We're basically at the end of Arrow 6 already, out of 22.

I already imagine what the next episode will be about, also since the characters shown after the ending.

Ok, they didn't start this with a glance Three Goddess Alliance right

Man, this episode felt really short.....

I really love when they use the in-game soundtracks here. I really hope they'll use Grand Battle theme, map theme, big snek theme, and Childhood's End perfectly

Fou is even cuter here

And Da Vinci is so beautiful XD

Anyway, really solid first episode

When becoming a servant, he gave himself a sex change and modeled himself after his vision of perfect beauty, the mona lisa.

Your other question about Rin will be answered later in the anime, but I'll tell ya this, she's not Rin, but that should've been pretty clear from the episode.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH I want the second episode already, but I'll wait cause it's that good.

Honorable Mention: The art is fantastic, the background a spectacle, the colors are beautiful and bright. The action is beautifully animated and the music is just perfect I can't wait to see the opening and ending.<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

This would not be interesting at all to anyone who hasn't watched Fate, it heavily relies on character fanservice so yes you do need to watch Fate Stay Night and Fate/Zero, don't bother with Apocrypha, Last Encore and Prisma Illya, they're not necessary to watch this one.

i don't think the anime will begin on that part by the next episode, so hopefully i can convince you to hang on until ep 3

"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."

at least know the bare minimum about fate/servants/holy grail war is enough I think?

also, watch the episode zero of this anime. it's a recap for fgo stories and main characters in general + recap of previous singularities

The master forges contracts with every servant he meets along his journey and they assist him along the way, he basically has an army of servants at his disposal. And Mashu is certainly not weak, her strength comes from one of the Knights of the round table, so she's definitely no slouch.

Pretty solid ep if I do say so myself, animation was quite nice, lots of smears here and there, Mash was and is as always one of my top waifu characters in the fate series so Im a tad bias with anything that includes her. Makes me wonder if I woulda liked her the same way if Takahashi Rie didn't get the role since Taneda Risa was sick back then thus she had to excuse herself out of the role.
One thing Im sure everybody here noticed was that... there was a lot of Mash booty shots! loved them all!!
Will definitely keep up with this and hopefully it doesn't push me into playing the game, I had enough of gacha games.
5/5👌

Mashu has Sir Galahad's powers.That is Sir Lancelot's son and the only knight of Artoria to ever get the grail.How is that weak?

And if you watched any Fate you would know that no Master is stronger than anyone in the ancient world.

Ritsuka may have little to no personality as a self insert but at least he isnt Sieg to be able to fight anything that starts with "DEM-" just because.

Watch this 24-min. long episode which has a decent amount of CGI or use the same amount of time tapping your phone screen because you can't skip NP's animations? So far I really enjoyed this episode, the voice acting and the pace is really nice.

I loved it, it was a good start just as I hoped (and I was hyped for) from the many staff announcements and sakugablog posts.

Unfortunately, I don't think I will interact with the MAL thread for the duration of the show. I'm growing more and more annoyed by MAL discussions in general, and just half of a page of this one just made me want to close internet for a bit.

I'll probably just post my brief opinions each episode and that's it.
I like to talk about Fate and TM in general and help people with it, but all the threads I've seen so far are a big NO for me, so I'll pass on that.

I wish you all good and not-stressful discussions from here onwards in the Babylonia threads.

Really, really neat first episode. The animation was pretty good in my opinion, even though the combination with CGI could've been a bit better. Ishtar's fall scene was so on point, even better than I had imagined and damn, she looks so hot. Da Vinci was hella cute and kohai delivered as expected ;)

Kinda bumped that we didn't get to see the OP or ED this episode, but I'm really looking forward for next week's episode! ^^

Wow, they managed to turn ''Fate'' into a generic haremshit with a beta male MC for 3- to 5-year-olds,




The first episode had 2 slip and falls. instant classic
It feels like haremshit from the 90's it's bizarre.

Fate/Grand Order: Zettai Majuu Sensen Babylonia is generic fanservice harem trash.

I really question the mental state of people watching this without even seeing the First Order OVA. If you’re an anime only that OVA is very much mandatory, along with Babylonia Episode 0. Do not come back until you’ve seen both of those.

As for the episode itself, much better than expected. It seems like they changed the location of where the protagonists meet Ishtar but that’s fine, nothing major.

Also lots of great butt and crotch shots this episode. Hopefully they can keep it up.

Ass expected, the waifu and fanservice game is strong, easily the best aspect of the episode.

Jokes aside, this was a pretty alright start. Good looking action( gives me hope that we will get some great fights like in Apocryoha) and the premise has potential. So far I'm interested.

Also great opening song.

Going in totally blind and I can say, I am really impressed with the production value. Animation is really good. So far it's not hard to understand what is going on. Solid first episode.

Great to see so many familiar faces at the start of the episode.

Atleast some things never change... Eventho that one girl shares the same appearence as Rin, Once a Tsundere, Always a Tsundere!! Also still with the same VA as usual.

All the servants so far seem to be pretty strong.
