Kara no Kyoukai and Tsukihime set in the same world as Fate.

The other Fate you watch whatever you want, those are the "mains".

Read the Fate/stay night Visual Novel, then read Fate/hollow ataraxia. Then:





Well I for one already loved Lain.

Without any explanations of the watch order, here you go:

1. Fate stay/night (2006)
2. Fate zero(s1 and s2)
3. Fate stay/night unlimited blade works( prologue - it's a 51 min story showcasing Rin)
4.Fate stay/night Unlimited Blade works ( s1 and s2)
5. Fate Heavens Feels Movies

I didn't watch the rest but you can look for fate grand order series on google.

P.s : Some sites will suggest to watch fate zero first but it's better to watch stay/night (2006) . Also, ignore the Unlimited blade works movie(2011) as it is a bad adaptation and UBW series covers more than the content of movie

Either start with Fate/Stay Night Visual Novel and then the Fate/ZeroLight Novel, I would recommend the Fate/Zero Light Novel over the anime because the anime has some subtle differences to the Light Novel that contradict the Visual Novel as well.
If you can't be bothered to read, start with Fate/Stay Night anime, then Fate/Zero anime, Fate Unlimited Blade Works anime, and finally Heaven's Feel trilogy. As previously mentioned, the anime for Fate/Zero has a few things that contradict the original Fate/Stay Night that are exclusive to it and not in the Light Novel, additionally the Fate/Stay Night anime is supposed to be an adaptation of the Fate Route but contains plot elements from Unlimited Blade Works and Heaven's Feel. The source material will give you a more coherent and better experience, although the anime isn't all that bad.
Either way it's release order, one for the source material, one for the anime.
Hollow Ataraxia, a pseudo-sequel to all 3 routes of Fate/Stay Night, can be read/played at any time after all 3 routes in the Visual Novel or their anime adaptations. I'd recommend playing it after Zero, although it was released first, because it doesn't (from what I've read so far) spoil Zero or is spoiled by Zero and as it has almost the entire cast of Fate/Stay Night returning so seems like it will make a better conclusion than ending your journey through the original continuity with Zero.

Fate (And even all the works of Type-Moon) works with a system of Multiverse.
Which means that absolutely everything is Canon , it just happens in a different universe/timeline.

For Fate , watch the Main Storyline (The ones featuring Emiya Shirô) and then you can watch/read every Parodies and Spin-Offs you want.

What do I start with? When do I watch the movies the OVA’s and how many are there?


For that , i've written everything there :

I fully understand people that recommend Zero first.

People that recommend Zero after Deen 2006 and before UBW are fucking psychopaths. This makes no fucking sense.

I’m getting pretty sick of people making threads like this. You know you can just look at the 5000 other watch order threads on every Fate anime instead of making your own, right? The responses you get here will be exactly the same as the ones on all of those. Or just check the pinned post on the Fate subreddit.

1. FSN 2006
2. Ufotable UBW tv show
3. Ufotable HF movies
4. Fate/Zero

Literally just do that, and then go crazy afterwards with multiverse in any order

Finally someone got correct answer. Three F/SN routes based on the visual novel + Zero which is prequel to all of them.

there is no "correct" answer, but that's certainly the watch order I would have recommended myself if I could redo the order I watched those in(I went by 2006 then zero then ubw then heavens feel)

If the doc is yours then Fate/Grand Order: Moonlight/Lostroom is a prologue of the second part of the game so it happens after Fate/Grand Order: Final Singularity - The Grand Temple of Time: Solomon.

It is the prologue for arc 2 of the game, the game's new arc starts moments after Lostroom ends.

There is a fuck ton of more.

There are 4 chapters after Babylonia/Solomon treated as part 1,5 And then there is the actual part 2 which is at least twice as big as part 1.....And it isnt over yet.

The watch order is the fate route(visual novel only), unlimited blade works(visual novel or anime), heaven's feel(visual novel or anime), zero, and then anything you want to watch after that. You sadly can't watch 2006 as a replacement for the visual novel because it messes up Shiro's characterization. If you don't feel like downloading the visual novel, you can just look up a walkthrough on youtube.

Zero doesn't spoil stay night. Zero is a prequel. Prequels expect you to watch the original before you watch them. It is absolutely not the intended order to watch Zero first. First, Zero was written after FSN. It relies heavily on the audience knowing things from FSN. Many scenes lose their impact if the audience doesn't know certain things.

If you want more information about why this is the best order, talk to the redditor known as ThatOtherStriker. Here's a link to his profile! They know a lot more about fate than I do.

I made a topic for this, but here

I made an order that I believe is the best if you don't like visual novels like me and would rather watch the anime. (If not just read the Fate Stay Night visual novel)

(Check out of the three route's visual novel ending battles after you finish them.
Also check out Bad End 38 after Heavens Feel 3.)
Fate/Stay Night: Prologue
Fate/Stay Night (2006, fan edited version online to remove spoilers)
Fate/Stay Night Unlimited blade works
Fate/Stay Night Heavens Feel 1 and 2
Fate/Zero
Fate/Zero Specials (Comedy but provides very important information)
Fate/Stay Night Heavens Feel 3
Fate Route Visual Novel True End (5-10 minutes after completing all routes)

Then:
Lord El-Melloi II 0 (Prologue somewhat related to one Fate/Zero character)
Fate/Apocrypha (Spin-off parallel universe Grail War by same author)

Extra stuff:
Emiya san chi no Kyou no gohan (Spin-off about cooking in Fate/Stay Night)
Lord El-Melloi II (Continuation of the El-Melloi II spin-off)
Fate/Prototype (One Episode of a What-If Saber was male)
Fate/kaleid liner (Ongoing Spin-off show about Illya in parallel universe)
Fate Redline manga (Another spin-off alternative universe)

Other Series:
Kara no Kyoukai (8 amazing movies by the same creator)

Optional(Since they involve games):
Fate/extra GAME (remake of the psp game coming soon)

Fate/Extella games afterwards

Fate/Grand Order Order 1 (Prologue movie (Check out the game version afterwards))

Fate/Grand Order Babylonia
Fate/Grand Order Babylonia Initium Iter
Fate/Grand Order Lost Room
Fate/Grand Order Solomon

Additional Info:
Fate/Stay Night is a Visual Novel was created by Kinoko Nasu.
(Supposed to be one of the best works of fiction and is longer than the bible)

Fate/Apocrypha is a Light Novel was created by Kinoko Nasu.
Kinoko Nasu supervised the anime for Unlimited Blade Works and Fate/Zero.

If or when Hollow Ataraxia comes out as an anime, I'll add it to the end of the core series list.

Well im open to criticism and that's gotta be the decision im more unsure of on the list. But its also because of Iris appearing on heavens feel 3 and zero spoiling all stay nights except for heavens feel 3.
So why do you disagree?

Well for starters it makes no sense to switch series after 2/3s of another.

Iri's easter egg,not even a cameo, isnt enough reason for the switch. She also appears in UBW, even as a curse, so people do know that that silhouette is Ilya's mother.

Zero depends on HF3's explanation of Angra Mainyuu as well. Zero gives 0 explanations about why the grail doesnt work and just name drops AM.

I understand what you're saying, however I do believe their hint to Angra Mainyuu makes the explanation on Heavens feel actually fit better, giving it more impact since in Zero they don't explain what it is.
Also I think switching from movies is chill.
Also I wouldn't call it a cameo, I definitely think it's more than that.
My point is that Zero gives Heavens feel 3 a lot more impact, but you're fine to disagree.
