Oh, so Makorov mean Sakura instead of "Haruka". I was honestly confused as to who he meant.

lol XD yeah I'm always wrong.. always writing sakura as haruka lol XD

btw @ssjokg really? she is not evil? :/ well so far she is not looking any bad :3 well actually I say she is evil because in f/z she was looked like really love when seeing kariya died in *who was it the grandfather's name?" home.. she say "that's why you dont hear grandfather" or something like that :/ idk that sub is right or not :/

Makarov try to edit your posts so that you dont double post...

In the end of FZ ,Sakura says that as a realization,not hatred or sadism.That is the final "lesson" form Zouken.In more detail that part from the novel:


Kiritsugu's death wasnt shown in the anime but he dies right after his final line.I think that Shirou's flashback in FSN shows that but I could be wrong since I saw FSN 3-4 years ago.

Kiritsugu didn't die in 4th grail war.. he died some time after in those ten years before 5th war started. If I remember correctly he died about 5 years before this story.

But the end of FZ is the part where Kiritsugu dies.If you read the VN you will see that after his final line("I am glad"or whatever)he dies.At least thats what Shirou says.
Perhaps you mean 5 years after the end of the 4th War because at the end of FZ, 5 years have already passed since Kiritsugu saved Shirou.

Was it stated that it will be a remake?

Anyway, DEEN's FSN anime did introduce me to the Nasuverve and made me start reading everything I can(unlike Tsukihime), so I can say at least it does a good work on that.

The pacing was really off this first episode. I guess I'm glad they're trying to fit all the stuff that happened but it came off as hard to follow. If I didn't know the background, I think I'd be confused with some of the stuff. Character designs are adapted well and I'm glad they have the same VAs from the VN.

Wanna know who's Rin's servant! :o
Sakura acting too differently, in F/Z she was way colder even being a kid. Now she's acting all kawaii and being sweet ._.
Hum, so Kiritsugu died after 10 years? A bit unexpected.
Seems like Kiritsugu's adoptive son can also use some sort of magic.
I like the information "flow" of this episode, makes it even more interesting =) The comedy scenes soft the seriousness of F/SN which is also pretty cool.
So Rin's servant is also an Archer-class, just like her father's.
Wut?! Illya appeared =D I can't say it was unexpected but the character design is basically the same but now she's grown.

Good episode.

The last scene in Fate/Zero already had Kiritsugu dying after saying he's glad. So not "after ten years", but somewhere in between in those ten years.

It being a different route does not change the fact that this adaptation is anime-original non-canon mish mash of all routes that amounts to nothing and has no connection to Fate/Zero.
And you are right I am not responsible for your own stupidity/idiocy.

Lol no one's confused.

1. Being in a franchise already makes people more inclined to watch all the series.
2. Idiots like you think by hating on this anime will get others to stray away from it and it has the opposite effect (I know that's why I'll be watching tsukihime soon)
And finally because you know...it's actually a good show.

Please do yourself a favor and don't watch this adaptation, it is not too late for you, you still can be saved!
If you don't want to read the Visual Novel, then start with the currently airing adaptation of the second route called "Unlimited Blade Works": http://myanimelist.net/anime/22297/Fate/stay_night:_Unlimited_Blade_Works_%28TV%29

For more information just take a look at this fantastic guide: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1286059

The 2006 F/SN shouldn't be taken as a representative of the Fate franchise due to its inaccuracies, and it's important that you don't allow it to influence your impression of the story and characters when you read the visual novel or watch the 2014 F/SN UBW.

The Fate franchise has a really large fanbase in which almost everyone has the opinion that this adaptation by Studio DEEN is not good. Maybe it is ok as a standalone but when you know this is an adaptation of one route of the Visual Novel, you can not call this one a decent one. The main character Shirou is not portrayed correctly, his character is butchered and the story makes sometimes no sense because they mixed scenes from the other two routes "Unlimited Blade Works" and "Heaven's Feel" into this adapatation. At this point you should really stop watching this Fate/stay night and move on to the UBW tv series because your overall experience and enjoyment will be so much better.

Yeah I heard that much and I try to see it as a "standalone" series together with the UBW movie. Since Fate/Zero and UBW 2014 are much better adaptions, I'll judge the Fate series after watching them and not by this show.

After watching 3 episodes I definitely won't drop this, I'm enjoying it too much right now. But thanks for your advice :)

At least this is the right mindset.
If you really don't want to drop this, we can't stop you. You have every right to continue watching the DEEN adaptation, but keep in mind, that you will be spoiled by this adaptation because there are scenes included from the other two routes which shouldn't be in this adaptation at all. I would still recommend to set this on hold and start with the better adaptation, but it is up to you.

I'm just saying, even if you decide to watch this, don't watch the UBW movie for sure, seeing as it's the exact same story as 2014, just hacked and rushed with very little context and characterization.

I don't really mind spoilers so I rather start with the worse adaption. I rather watch something bad and then something good, so I might enjoy the bad show :)

If you want, you could watch it after both seasons of 2014 to compare, though you'll certainly diminish your experience of Ufo UBW if you watch the movie first.

Yes, please skip at least that movie since it is supposed to adapt exactly the same story as the new tv series of Unlimited Blade Works. You can still watch the movie AFTER the second cour of the tv series aired (by the end of June) and then compare. Deal or no deal? :(

Yeah but they haven't aired so far, I'll make sure to watch them when they are out, but probably after Fate/Zero. I heard Rider plays a bigger role there :)

Just for clarification, storywise:
2006 Stay Night != UBW 2014
UBW Movie = UBW 2014
Is that correct?
