| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- A good way to start an anime. No mention of Saber yet. That Tohsaka Rin; no wonder she's so popular. I really should watch this in HQ. |
| finally started watching since my dvds just arrived :) i want saber to appear D: |
| It's a shame that I started this show now and not years earlier. Because this looks really promising. Really liked this episode. |
| Interesting.. So, that's Tohsaka Rin? So, this is the most popular series of TYPE-MOON? |
 |
| Hmm, not too great. Let me get some action and then I'll be able to judge it. |
| Not bad for a first episode, I guess... I'm just mad that Saber didn't show up yet... But I'm pretty sure she'll show up in the next episode anyway. |
 |
| Yeh not a bad way bad to start an anime... Well it's a plain way to do it, but hey we need the whole history behind all the plot ne? So this little intro was nice... The looks of the Tohsaka girl are awesome... And Shirou looks like a nice guy.... But looks like things will go wilder from now on.... Sakura was the moe girl for sure.... Fujimura-sensei is the comical relief.... And this Servants are the action factor.... But why are you whinning about summoning Saber? Is she that kewl? Who's that anyway??? XD Signs, Green |

| I was kinda bored actually. I hope it'll get better as I keep watching :] Yeesh I hate when fans complain about stupid shit like whoever this Saber person is when they just watched the first episode. Have they ever heard of something called story build-up?! |
| I've heard good things about this anime and it seemed ok to begin with. I'll reserve judgment til I watch some more. |
 |
| Hmmm...kinda a slow start, but the art is nice and the story seems intriguing. I'll give it a shot. BTW, the THORA fansubs for this film are incredible! |
     |
| nothing interesting really happened... Even Shakugan no Shana and Zero no Tsukaima got a much better start... but since this is said to be the best show of 2006, and a lot of my friends are crazy about it, I'll wait and see why... |

 |
| nice episode. Tohsaka is my favorite tsundere. Delicious tsundere is delicious |
 Vrrrrroooooooommmm! |
| I finally decided to start this series, I hope it's as good as it is popular. |
| It was alright, a somewhat slow start but sure enough the next episode looks more interesting. And Sabre will make her debut, nice! (n_n)/ |

Agreed. And it was a kinda boring episode but I have a friend who was a raving lunatic for it, so I'm gonna go a little farther in before judging. |
| I saw Copenhagen on that box *he was carrying! Awesome! Hehehe. *I think it was that one... |
| Don't make me mad..! Because of I'm getting so tired when I'm angry... |
| A good first episode, i think i'll watch a few more before i make any decisions about it tho! But so far so good! :) |
 |
| It's freakin' metal!! Slow start but the system interest me |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| A bit slow, but pretty good start. |
| Yeah, it was a slow start. Hopefully some good action will go down next episode! |
It's not breaking in if the door is unlocked. |
| Interesting first episode. I hope we'll get more of Rin and her archer ... |
| Character design is good, art is eye pleasing, story, still developing. |
| 'Interested in mysterious gas spills & homicidal robberies ? Come to town X (they haven't mentioned the city's name, or am i wrong), we have plenty of those.' That would be the current ad for that city in some conversation |
'Everything is impossible until proven possible.' - Me |
| Seems good. :) |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Decided to slowly re-watch this alongside the Visual Novel. I wonder what the people who complain about the slow start of the anime would think of the Visual Novel? Which has a 3-5 hour prologue and doesn't even introduce Saber until 3 or so hours after that. What the novel gains by this length of time is establishing a few general rules of the War and establishing Shirou and Tohsaka's character. Still, the anime seemed to do a decent job in this first episode of showing Shirou's past, though I don't think his "scars" are all that well explored. But, we'll see going forward. Tohsaka's characterization was basically skipped, but i have an idea of what Studio Deen was going for with this so I'll reserve my judgements for later. |

| This was a pretty slow start |
| Surprised to see how Sakura ended up as being a normal and kind girl after growing up with all these bugs and {spoiler from FZ} |

Khalan3 said: Heh, you should play the VN and see her route if you really think that. You get enough clues that something is wrong with her in the Prologue of the Visual Novel alone.

Suppose you read the LN; so you should be right. But either way her reaction was very coldhearted, suppose I will find out soon enough she's not a normal girl. |

Just as a little clue into how Sakura is different between Zero and Stay Night. Just think on "why" Sakura spends every single day at Shirou's house. |
|
| Pretty awesome first episode, but the main character being a naive protector of justice is a bit worrisome. But good episode none the less! |

| Wow the characters look so much like Kara no Kyoukai ...I just figured to myself they had to have the same creator with the eyes and all especially shirou he looks like one the male characters in the Kara no Kyoukai movie the same hair and everything lol |
| Interesting first episode, they do have a good way of expressing the humor but I'm sure they require this amount of humor level to keep the show intact and still interesting until the end. The story of this first episodes takes quite some time in the future from Fate/Zero and if I'm right we saw a short scene with Ilya in it near ending. Quite interesting non the less I was discouraged to watch this because of the prequel but well lets see what this season actually hast to offer! |
 |
| Well, first ep is kinda speedup when comparing to game but every important thing is there so it's a good start :) |
| Heh, watching Zero first gives a different perspective on this series I imagine. |
 |
| Well, I'm watching this right after finishing Zero and I have to say I was bored like hell. |
 |
| yeah finally watching fate/stay night.. well first episode.. my comment is amazing.. its cool.. looks like we see rin, ilya, shiro, and kirei :3 btw the art is not as good fate/zero.. :/ and kiritsugu is dead T,T no that old man is dead.. T.T oh and what make me sooooo.. fahking dissapointed is I cant see any more from rin or ilya..

Not as bad as changing Iri to Ril that someone else did. 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. |
