Hello, I'm clampfan72485 and I'm new to this site. After visiting it for a few months I decided to join this past week. Now, I've been watching anime since I've been in middle school but did not become a full on fan until high school. So because of my faulty memory , I'll only be keeping track of anime I recently watched as I've seen a lot over the years I've been watching. Speaking of recent anime, (I'm hoping it's not against the rules to ask this question in my introduction thread) I had a question about the Fate/stay series. I know Fate/Zero is a prequel and Unlimited Bladeworks is a retelling/reworking/remake of the original Fate/Stay night but if I was interested in watching them, is there a particular order I should watch them in or not?

Welcome to MAL! Enjoy your stay!

About your Fate question.... I have no idea. I've been meaning to watch the series after I play the visual novel but you know, life finds a way to destroy time.

Welcome to MAL, it's nice to meet you~ I'm Shun and I hope to see you around forums ^^

As for your question about Fate, I'd recommend watching Fate/Zero first before watching Unlimited Bladeworks if you're planning on watching only those two series. I believe you would be confused at some parts in UBW if you don't watch Fate/Zero first since there are some references.

Since Unlimited Bladeworks is also a remake/alternate route for Fate/Stay Night, you could always watch the original Fate/Stay Night before the two series altogether. That's what I did. Although the animation is "crap," I still enjoyed the story with Saber's route compared to Rin's route. This series is not necessary for the other two mentioned above as most people will say.

Welcome to MAL.

As for your question, watch Fate/Zero first. UBW might seem a little confusing if you don't.

Thanks for all the welcomes and thanks for the information about the Fate/Stay series. What I'll probably do is finish Shamanic Princess today and watch Fate/Zero and then eventually watch Fate/Stay Night UBW. I'm currently watching Ayashi no Ceres and Captain Earth.
