| you guys talk about Mapo tofu, meanwhile i am thinking about Sakura Lip zoom scene |
| Incredible. As a HF fan I can't ask for much more honestly anime-wise. It was the most important to me that they got the atmosphere right... and they did, easily. The characters too, equally important, which they nailed as well. Just look at the scenes with Shirou and Sakura. "Yea of course this movie is going to look great - ufotable, etc. etc." BUt you know what? It STILL fucking surprised me with how beautiful it looked in some scenes. The lightning is ridiculously good, compared to everything else I've seen pretty much. Just the best. One of the best things I've seen. The people working on this are doing the route justice, you can tell. Remember that this is only the first movie, there's much left. 10/10  |

| Excellent Movie...No more confusion what order to watch this series FORGET the rest of the Fate anime especially the DEEN treat them all as stand alone. If you just intend to watch the anime. >>>UFOTABLE's VERSION RELEASE ORDER<<< |
| Goddamn what an awesome start to IMO the best route. The quiet atmosphere was perfect. I loved the character interactions especially the godly mapo tofu scene. Every frame was a beauty to behold. The action scenes were great. Lancer vs Assassin was one of the best anime fights I've seen animation and choreography wise. And I loved all the original content they added. Especially the ones concerning Shinji as it gives him a bit more depth to his character. The end with Saber reaching for the Holy Grail and Saber Alter stopping her was also great. Although I felt they should have still added Saber's monologue about apologizing to Shirou for losing right before she was consumed by the shadow. All in all I couldn't ask for a better adaptation of my favorite route. Now to wait for another year before we van watch the 2nd film subbed. The real question though is, who did it better?  |
 |
| It's been such a long wait! Tbh as someone who's already read the VN, I can't ask for much more. This film showed me what Ufotable will do with the 2 other movies and what they will probably include. For a second I thought that they included Shirou's wet dream, not quite but we got some nice Rin shoots in..... Something that I noticed was how they twice showed off Sakura's clumsiness, which was an amazing touch because it's related to the plot in itself. Adaptation wise Heaven's feel will probably have the best one, even though UBW is my favorite route in the VN. The next 2 films (especially the 3rd one) should be even more amazing! |
 |
| Finally, the movie is out. This is what I was expecting from a Fate/Zero sequel. Couldn't ask more about a dark Fate. So far, I'm enjoying more this line than the UBW one. The battle scenes surprised me tho, really good coordinations and top animation. Lancer vs Assassin was really good. Some will say the CG was bad, but it wasn't that annoying. Sakura is a enjoyable character, clumsy and cute. She of course, has something hiding. That wet dream was hot. A lot of questions to be answer. Can't wait for the sequel! Mako Tofu scene, we did it! |
 |
| you dont need to ask how the visual look like, its so great >movie quality. glad they dont show too much of the same scene that already happen in UBW. saber vs rider just lol "i want 2 see servant battle " then few second later rider's dead. lancer part was cool but he died , again and this time too short how was kojirou killed ? what was the thing grapping the servant anyway? that shadow with the long hair mapou tofu is the best , love seeing kirei eating these < this is the best scene XD . thats why i had it for dinner before watching lol i dont know which 1 is shirou consider more monstrous, is it the shadow thing or the mapou tofu lol rider vs assassin , assassin lose lol its not like in the game mechanic FGO , just kidding im not serious ok nice we got to see salter with that dress waiting is always the worst part |
| Eh? Urobutcher didn't direct this?... It's way too nihilistic considered how the prelude ended so many infodumps.. rather than taking the most crucial and bizarre moments.. Those possible hints were the most unnerving tension.. along all the counterparts that had been through foreshadowing.. And Srsly? the deaths are quite gritty considered this route can be filled with a lot of bloodshed.. |
 "Think about that glowing dust That destroys the night sky's dream of Just being nothing"--  -- |
| How many years it's been I haven't watched a Fate this good. Reconfirmed my love for the franchise. Gotta hand it to Ufotable. Watch and learn, A-1 and Shaft. This is how you do Fate. Fast and focused fights which don't rely on explosions, mystery elements, simple but curious, which keep pulling you until the very end. Spamming Kamehamehas and blowing up mountains, tryhard mysteries which pretend to be so complex that it can't be solved anymore later aren't Fate things. Ahem, enough ranting and back to discussion... As a VN player, the pace is a little all over the place but since they have to condense it in a movie format and epicness is over 9000, it can be brushed aside easily. If they go at this rate, it can only get better. 9/10 right now but I can sense a 10/10 if they nailed the later movies. A good idea to skip the prologue scenes since there won't a newbie anymore who'd start Fate with this movie (?) "So he tends to like the people he dislikes." Won't comment on it anymore since it became a Fate tradition... Never knew Mapo Tofu scene was this wanted, although it's also my favorite scene in the VN. That shadow is still creepy no matter how many times I see it. Lancer died again. No Carnival Phantasm joke, anyone? That 'wet' dream was a sex scene in VN, just FYI ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Not a very large fan of Sakura but I think she's more attractive here than in the VN. Okay! It's time for Ufo to remake Stay Night route and Tsukihime. Even better, Fate/extra too, which'll follow the source to the dot, with Hakunon of course. |
 |
| Ufotable does it again! Absolutely amazing. |
| Lie until what you want to be true becomes truth. Lie until you can't remember what's a lie and what isn't. Lie until you aren't lying anymore! Figures  |
| Wow man just wow have been waiting for this movie since last year. The animation of this movie is excellent even compared to the zero and UBW the only problem is that now have to wait another year for the 2nd one. |
| Fucking finally! The day has come. I was really hyped for the movie and it exceeded my expectations. I can't imagine how awesome watching this in cinemas was when watching it on TV was this good. Animation, art, sound, music, voice acting, atmosphere, everything was great to me. One of the highlights for me was Rider vs Saber scene. It started with epic buildup, flashy moves from Rider, great Yuki Kajiura OST and me getting goosebumps, and then... the next moment Saber KOed Rider with just one kick and I started to laugh out laud. I also loved little details in the movie, like character expressions during certain scenes and dialogues foreshadowing what is to to come, and little stuff like Rider gently putting down Mitsuzuri, indicating that she is kinder than she appears to be. I've read VN long ago so I can't really nitpick what is skipped or changed, only things I noticed that were skipped were cooking and some slice of life scenes which is totally fine in my opinion. Also the scenes in the beginning were fast forwarded which is also fine since it is already expected that a viewer knows about it. All in all, film was fantastic for me, great adaptation of the 3rd route. With knowledge about what is to come in next two movies and with how great this movie was I am even more hyped for sequels. |
| fuck, that's some Infinity war level cliffhanger bullshit right there... idk, feels like nothing really happen in this part, was expecting some feels since fans was like gya gya about it. IMO other than the godly animation aad precious Sakura's smile, the movie it self is average at best... I do hope my impression gonna change in the next part, since all those waiting after the news got out and trailer etc etc was hellish to say, I dont want this to become one of those Movie that only VN readers gonna appreciate... that Mapo tofu and Kotomie's moaning while chewing is amusing to see at least |
 |
| This is what i came to see: MapoTofu/10 |
| Man, what a great movie this was. Loved almost every moment of the film. Got to know Sakura a bit more and would like more scenes with her more along with more Illya scenes would be nice in the next film. Would of liked to seen a lil bit more character interaction between Shirou and Sakura. I too am glad they skipped the first part where Shirou gets wounded and Rin comes to save him couple of minutes in the film, etc as that's already been seen in UBW but may be an issue for those who haven't seen it as not sure they'll pick up on what's going on in the foreground as the credits play. I am hoping for another 2hr long film for part 2 and 3 with such a time frame it'd be like watching past a regular 12/13 TV episode anyways. Probably the only gripe I have in the film is the Lancer vs Assasin scene both chase scene and fighting in the truck thing whatever it's called. Not a fan of the CG work there at all looked so out of place and "fake" (dunno the right word to use) but the rest of the scene in the swamp thing was fine. I gotta agree with some that feel that this is the true sequel to Fate/Zero. I was so-so with UBW but this one's got the right feel to it. Hope it stays this way with part 2 and 3. |

| Very good movie overall. Though I still don't like the format of the 3 routes for one story. You basically have to mix them all together to get the true sequel to the perfect Fate/Zero. Last time Kirei, Sakura and Rider got shafted the worst. This time it's Caster, Assassin and Kuzuki who were all great in UBW. On the other hand it's great to finally see what Zouken has been up to since the last grail war. Though I don't get the whole thing with Assassin. I hope they explain that a little more in the future. The darker tone of Zero is also back, which is great. The animation is top notch as always with ufotable. I'm looking forward to the next one. |
YggdrasilTM said: Hayle93 said: Though I don't get the whole thing with Assassin. I hope they explain that a little more in the future. At the end of UBW Assassin explaines that he is a fictional hero, because he was summoned by Caster, another Servant. Zouken is the head of the Matou family, the ones that provided the Command Spells to the ritual and experts of familiars. He used the irregular Servant summoned by Caster as a catalyst to summon the real Assassin. Okay thank you for the clarification. So even though Zouken wasn't chosen by the grail, in this route he becomes a master because he himself chose to intervene this time? So in theory he could have done that in the other routes too, right? |

| Can anyone tell me how rider come and save emiya ass? hasnt she gone to other world? |

Berserkerhealer said: Can anyone tell me how rider come and save emiya ass? hasnt she gone to other world? She didn't die when you saw her disappear after the fight with Shinji. |
| Well that was a lot to take in in one go... This felt fast and slow at the same time... if this even makes sense. I was sad Lancer is already dead though I din't expect him to survive. The movie was visually really quite stunning though. |
Shayon said: Berserkerhealer said: Can anyone tell me how rider come and save emiya ass? hasnt she gone to other world? She didn't die when you saw her disappear after the fight with Shinji. Enlighten me Why did she save him? |
| The first 40 mins was just a rehash other Fate parts, with a bit new scenes. That being said, I enjoyed the rest. I’ve been dying to see more of Sakura and the Matou’s in HF and Alter Saber looks interesting Rider is so sexy, her fight against Assassin felt like a memorising dance that was turning me on. Shirou x Sakura is a decent ship so far, but Shirou x Rin is still OTP. It’s hilarious that Lancer died again, it seems they’re always fated to die a miserable death. At least he didn’t get jobbed as bad as Kojiro though xD 8/10 |

| A few reviewers going this isn't an entry point thus docking the score. I get score doesn't matter that much in the grand scheme of things, but this is just stupid. If you'd heard of Heaven's Feel, you're likely into the Fate series in some form or another thus you'd likely know that this is the third route in the original game. Even a little Google search can make things clear and the amount of laziness and ignorance is headache-inducing. Art and animation is on point more than usual, and soundtrack stands out when it needs to thanks to Yuki Kajiura. The suspense aspect even though I already know what happens from playing the VN was there, like those silent scenes tho. |
| I need sleep. |
| A strong beginning. I’m not sure how I’ll be able to wait for the next one. A really like how they had Shirou and Sakura stuff at the beginning. They really upped the gore in this movie with Shirou’s guts spilling out and Assasins corpse. Movie format was definitely the right choice. I couldn’t help but laugh when Saber sent Rider flying into the wall. Assassin vs Lancer was more badass than I expected. RIP Saber. She died really early considering there’s another two movies. Mapo tofu scene was glorious! I really want that next movie! |
 |
| as dull as ubw, but a little more interesting... thought assassin was going to be a strong villain, but they didn't give him enough dialogue. |
| the story progress is so slow but i remember people saying the Heavens Feel route is slow and dragging so much too anyway at least the sakuga fighting scenes are cool so that is worth watching alone |
| Animation of ufo on this film gave me the vibe of KnK movies and the fate zero. I have no complaints, I love the animation. Though at some point of the movie, imo there are kinda rushed pace scenes compared to some scenes which are going on well with the somber atmosphere. Well can't help it, cause its only 2 hrs and they need to condense the vn's half days of shirou, so major scenes were prioritized while less relevant scenes were skipped. I love those small glances of Sakura, especially when she touched her ribbon, when Shirou asked about who's her hero and when she's describing Rin. Which those glances looks like implying something important, dang I can't wait for the next movies. Also those Rin's reactions when a discussion is related to ... oh well, that well of course also implies something plot relevant. IMHO watching first this HF first film isn't a good idea, without the knowledge of fate and ubw routes(read the vn and have a background on it), or at least have watch the ubw tv series by ufo. Cause it seems like this movie is made assuming you have watch the ubw tv series or have a background knowledge from the vn. Mapo Tofu scene, hawt! |

With the way Ufo is adapting HF, I think it can be considered a spoiler, so wait for the other two movies. Hopefully they'll actually bother to explain it, by this time Rider had already told Shirou the reason she saved him, but that conversation got cut. OG_Gattsu said: Theorder14 said: rehash what?

A couple of new scenes & Shirou x Sakura moments didn’t change this feeling like a rehash This is adapted from a visual novel, so that kind of stuff is inevitable due to the structure of the story. Shirou running away from Lancer after being pierced and summoning Saber was just turned into some flashes, and Shirou finds out about Shinji in a completely different scene here. |

| Overall the BD vers of Heaven's Feel was soo damn great visuals were phenomenal as expected.A few things that caught me off guard were seeing Alter Saber (looking forward to seeing her and Arturia interact) also Rider was one of the highlights in the movie when she came in to save shirou that was one of my favorite scenes in the whole movie i need me a gif of that highkey, and ooo i see Gil is making his official debut in Lost Butterfly im rdy to see that, my daughter Illya looking forward to seeing her and berserker put in work, Sakura was kawaii when her and rider get their duo together its going to be amazing. Also the OST was great i got Kara no Kyoukai vibes with not only that but also with some of the gore shown as well, Aimer ED glad to finally listen to the movie vers of it Lost Butterfly is up im looking forward to the next chapter in the trilogy. |

Archer wasn't there to back up Saber against Berserker so that's a significant change. Not what you could call a rehash. When did Shrou ever fight assassin? The way Shirou met Shinji is completely different too so yet again, not a rehash.Not to mention that Zouken who was never in ubw showed up. Sakura meeting gil? now ur just nitpicking. We never found out what their connection was in ubw so ofc they're showing it. It's fine if u call it boring but there's plenty of new material and changes and is not a rehash. |

How they handled the prologue was better than I expected. Wasn't sure exactly how they'd do it, you know? The first part with Shirou meeting Sakura for the first time is something I haven't even seen before, so that was much appreciated. But then the way they fast forwarded through some of the essential prologue parts was nice, clearly expecting you to have at the very least seen the UBW series before. Seeing things from one of Zouken's bugs. |
| Servant are being killed like fodders left and right, although HF is meant to be seen last route so it shouldn't bother that much because we already saw everything about them Freaking Hassan soloing everyone~ I really don't like Sakura but I will have to bare with it for the sake of other characters like Kotomine and Illya Saber alter is finally here~ 7\10 "for now" nothing too amazing happened and there was barely any epic fights |
hawktr said: I didnt get it! How come i watched all the fate series in the universe and i dont get a lot things? Spoiler from here ..... People say saber crippled archer because shiro didnt use command spell on him in that movie... How come u know that ? Vn ? So archer was absent all the movie because he is injured ? Nearly everbody came back after death ? Rider come back ? How the fuck Caster died came back as a corpes with old man. It is okay though. so saber will come back ? Saber died !!!? wtf How the hell there can be 2 assasins ? Caster said smthg like the real assasin.. And she set him free by using rulebreaker ? How come then that assasin bound with motou? Where did that second assasin (Hassan i think) come from if caster summoned the other asssasin and why it is bound to caster ? I dont get the whole assasins plot there... Not asking about that shadow thing.. Probably it will spoil the other movies but does it have a connection with assasin. He always fights with it or lure people to it... And what is with that tofu scene i dont get it? Somebody please enlighthen me.. Yeah from the VN, because Shirou didn't stop her in this route she crippled Archer and because of that she lost to Herc this time cuz Archer wasn't there to back her up Rider didn't die in the first place she just disappeared to treat her wounds similar to Archer It's hard to explain without spoiling but no Saber didn't die I forgot the plot with True assasin tbh so someone else can explain Kotomine just love eating tofu nothing special about it |

And what is with that tofu scene i dont get it? Somebody please enlighthen me.. I will try to explain for assassin. I may be wrong tho. First Assassin, Sasaki Kojirou, never existed in history and shouldn't have been summoned but Caster is a unique mage so she was able to summon a servant. But because she is a servant she was only able to summon a fake assassin but fake assassin is enough for Grail War to start. Because there is a fake assassin, true assassin can still be summoned. And then fake assassin's body is used as a catalyst for summoning the true assassin. And as for why she used the rule breaker, I guess because true assassin was summoned from Sasaki's body he is was bound to Caster. After that true assassin made contract with Zouken. I think this is the most I can tell without spoiling. |
