Didn't like the dubstep-ish track at the end there, it doesn't really fit imho

I'll admit, that slow, high-fps panning scene in the church, displaying Kirei's rectangle-walking skills was pretty alpha.
But now that I think about it, Tokiomi has a thing for walking in circles, Kirei - walking in rectangles. What's the catch?

Maybe your screen is tiny and everything shows up tiny and cute and moe and causes nosebleed to anyone who looks at it.

...You know what, I'll be frank. This is the first stupid "People Die When They Are Killed" assumption that I've ever read on MAL. I mean, they're fairly commonplace elsewhere like on Youtube and 4chan, but thus far I haven't encountered any here until now.

Well, I guess people like this have to exist for the sake of harmony, huh.


Well,the first 2 episodes so far (Minus the prologue) are pretty much the same thing,so of course i'll assume it's the same stuff (having no knowledge of the novel)

If you were pissed by the "people die when they are killed" thing,it's just easier to use than "that other version" or something along those lines


The first 2 episodes are the ones which are the same as the other anime, it will completely take a different path from the next 1-2 episodes

Reasons:-
Tokiomi: From drinking too much wine.
Kirei: From reading too much bible.(does he really read it when he's alone?)

or Ufotable just likes weird walking as much as Shaft like head tilts. Just wait until you see bersercar dance on that dubstep music.

Hmm did the VN already have a Berserker stat screen at this point? It would be fun to compare it with Archer and Saber.

Also it'd be pretty tough to walk in circles in a place like that, you'd need to step on the benches and all.

The Holy Grail War.

Once again another great episode. Now this is how you do pacing. This episode was pretty much just explaining the HGW to Shirou. Love the fact that they explain it to him. The person who doesn't know anything about the damn war, instead of just randomly giving out information to people who already know what's going on. And my boy Kirei! I think I know where he got that walking around in circles from. Dat ending was surprising to me (haven't played the VN). Wasn't expecting to see Illya so soon. I like how she had berserker with her. Next episode is the first battle can't wait.

5/5.

I can easily imagine him dancing and he will look badass doing it.

Nope, you get the status screens once they are explained to Shirou as far as I remember.

Can't wait to see Archer + Saber vs. Berserker. I have no doubt ufotable will bring us something fucking amazing

Also, I watched this with a friend and I'm kinda surprised by how many hints he noticed such as

If the VN has fan service, I'm playing it right now. I've watched Fate/Zero so like.. where in the VN shall i start?

Definitely isn't off topic or anything. I shall join the Priest wave... Unless this knocks FMA:B off rank #1 which I doubt. So I'll be a priest for a certain period.

That cliffhanger<3<3<3

Another really good Episode, this time with a lot of Infordump, but that`s fine cause it was done with Kirei`s Voice<3. Overall good pacing and looking forward to next episode.

/a/ are so smart:

It's not like this episode had a lot of potential, considering it was bound to be two back to back rounds of infodumping, but it was still kinda disappointing. I feel like so far, other than the fight scenes, which have been pretty stellar, the adaptation has been kinda not quite right. I don't know exactly what it is, maybe it's the lack of internal monologues (which are always a pain in anime adaptations of written stuff) or maybe it's just awkward directing, but I've felt like most "serious" non-fighting scenes have felt off.

Great info dump episode! They nailed all the points and set up everything perfectly. I don't mind info dump episodes like some people because it's completely necessary for world building and character development.

Liked seeing Saber and Shirou confirm their contract and partnership, that's always nice. Also I have to say that I can really see how menacing and eerie Kotomine is when they're talking to him. It's a little different in the VN because you can't see him pacing around and making all those little gestures.

Also Ilya incoming!!!! Cannot wait for the Berserker fight.

Yes the first 10 minutes were completely necessary, it's not as if they could have head straight to Kirei and got the exact same exposition... with a better voice giving it. Holy fuck, the pacing was awful, how on earth is this your definition of perfect? These threads genuinely worry me.
