I guess the problem I have with Stay is that the characters are just not charming.

And it has nothing to do with school settings, etc.

For example, Kirei and Gilgamesh were very charming in their own way in Zero. But here on Stay, they are just the evil dudes, nothing more. And Shinji with the evil glare and evil laugh doesnt help either.

The only charming character in Stay so far has been Archer, thats it.


For Zero Kirei you will have to wait until HF and Gilgamesh just isn't that awesome in F/SN thats true

But how the other characters aren't "charming" I don't get it
I guess they were charming in Glasslip lol (which you have in your favourites)


If you wanna have a Glasslip discussion, do it on my profile. We're talking Fate here. and nothing more.

I dropped the second half, specially after seeing Zero last month (great anime by the way). I just wanted to see how the forums here were doing.

Fate/Zero and UBW 2014/2015 are very successful from what we see so far. Heaven's Feel will be too. Complaining about it repetitively will do nothing for the adaptation, it will only be a stain on the experience on new and enthusiastic fans. Those same fans are loving it, and may someday go for the VN. Why not write a letter to Ufotable or something? Or better yet, quit your jobs and go work for them.

If there's new fans, I'll urge you to do what I'll be doing; sit back and enjoy season 2. There's always the VN if you're really interested. This can be treated as an "after-story" to Fate/Zero. Not a direct sequel, but events that take place "after". Either way, Shirou's most important inner thoughts were already presented: "Why do I want to be a Hero of Justice", and "Shut-up, you wont know unless you try". Fire trauma was expressed, and I hope your soul feels it every time a Kiritsugu flashback is shown. Since that will make certain aspects of what's to come more meaningful.

I'll be enjoying this season, and any/all Ufotable Type-Moon stuff like majority of the world/fans are.

Most of Fai's criticisms are valid and I agree with some of them. It's just that he states them in a very unpleasant and pessimistic manner which can get repetitive and annoying quickly. I respect that he doesn't enjoy the adaptation for what it is, but could he let others enjoy it without labelling them as blind fanboys...?

This. I think sad when some disconsider all your points just because he is being repetitive and boring, because is a legit critical. My problem is more when he begins to be repetitive in speak about all the weak points in adaptation, and no praise for anything for various and various posts.

And I don't remember when UFO said that this adaptation is replacing the VN like the real story in any media, LN, manga, VN or animes. THIS is a adaptation. Of course that important things for the fans will be cutted, it's natural. Now why to focus just this points? This is my problem.

Well, a lot of it has to do with imo episode 0(prologue) having the best fighting scene so far. isn't the quality generally supposed to go up? It just set the anime up for disappointment, and when I consider that UBW story in general isn't amazing... Overall it's... all right, I guess, although as I mostly watch it for the action scenes I constantly find myself thinking "this could have been done better" and that's pretty bleh. I feel like the next two or so episodes are going to define how cour 2 is going to be. I really would like to get an entire fight I'm impressed with instead of a 3 second portion of it with the rest being mediocre.

I was reading UBW while the anime was airing, and man, it was impossible to not compare both. The thing i miss so much in this adaptation is Shiro's POV, and that caused my disappointment with the anime.

Well, I said it in episode 13 discussion:

I know. But I don't have this problem why I don't read the VN for know what is lacking or no. It's worst action possible to analysis any adaptation.

I read VN twice in January and March. Point. Have much things that I already forgot and asking for others users here. I'm seeing UfoFSN while a anime that is a adaptation based in a VN.

Now has various viewers here that after to see the episode, run for read the VN and to know what lack in the adaptation. It's horrible. I don't remember that UfoFSN is replacing UBW route in VN like the official one (and this not is possible in Nasuverse). It's an adaptation, My Lord.

Well, I'm not a fanboy (with no any pejorative sense here), then this also help me.

I rate it 2/10 because Shirou isn't a transfer student. Other than that, he's a generic harem protagonist. Just look at the characters. Twin-tail tsundere, oppai kohai, nekid loli, overly friendly sensei, blonde kuudere, 2 sado doms and of course, Garcher. Tho Shirou does have the window seat so I'll raise it to 3/10.


you should drop it back to 2 since he doesnt have "falling and grab boobs moment".

No. It stays at 3/10.

No, I mean maybe they deliberately took away his monologues so that we can view him through other characters' points of view. On paper, it's a good "show, not tell" strategy, though I'd agree that it didn't end up as well as they probably planned.

But we do NOT view him through other character's POV. The directing is not there. The tells are not there. The characterization is not there.

Rin already understands more about Shirou than we do alone.

We do in a way. See how Ayako realises something is wrong with Shirou, or how Rin keep saying he's messed up. We get hints of it, and that's how Nasu said he wanted it to be, according to his interview. I assume this culminates in a scene where Shirou explains what really happened 10 years ago, and ties up all the loose ends.

Rin understands Shirou, and we, as the audience, should understand just as well as her. She knows what we know, which is the point of the "telling through character POV" thing. Shirou's character development isn't there completely, but we're barely halfway through. I'm sure Nasu planned to reveal Shirou's stuff sooner or later (or maybe even during the Answer scene).

Again.

"Shirou is psychologically damaged" is not characterization. Well part of it is but that s more about his character development, NOT ABOUT WHO HE IS AS A PERSOn.
