| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ep 00 to be exact. The start was hype as hell, great animation and effects all around. We got a backstory of a 10 year old Mash and how the story will progress in its sequel. Hopefully we get animations like this showed in its opening. |
  |
Same question, if I may. |
 |
It's a watchable video in the Japanese version of the Fate/Grand Order mobile game, but you need to have cleared the first chapter (Fuyuki) to be able to watch it. Other than that: This was pretty nice! A little bit of backstory of Dr. Roman and Mash with some great animation at the beginning. Let's hope that CloverWorks can keep it up for the main story! |
The episode is up on Wakanim SC |
| Nice character oriented episode .. well, the first half at least, kinda .. the rest was an ultra fast recap of previous singularities lol. But still good. Cant wait for Babylonia. Also for those who don't know .. she fine, dont worry. |

El-Melloi is barely watchable with shitty Aniplex subs. They even fucked up this line about Grey's identity. Bleh... |
| This was a very good intro to the actual storyline. |
 |
| Romani's backstory felt a bit like Emiya's but from the perspective of a doctor. They even spoilered some parts of Camelot lol I am part of the people, who like Mashu and therefore I really liked the episode. |

| Can fans even discuss this without spoiling shit?Those of us that played up to the end of part 1 got exactly what we wanted. Perfect mix of fan service and storytelling. Hope the rest is just as good. |
| It would've been nice to have had this before First Order. Mask would be more interesting. Leonardo da Vinci made an appearance. And it was hot. |
| Emotional episode, they compile the journey and give it a good note. Mash is badass with that scene. Romani taking care of Mash is a wonderful scene. And a ton of cameos from FGO, like the singularity montages. Overall its a nice watch before the babylonia anime |
 |
| I'm not a big fan of Babylon myself, but if this is an indication of how the main series will be then I guess it'll be pretty fun. It was good to animate this for non-players. I love how Mash mentioned how much she developed through each singularity. Easily the best part was seeing a glimpse of each one with the game OP playing in the background. And to hear Sanzang <3 The most beautiful monk who refuses to visit my Chaldea :( |
 |
| I really enjoyed this, art and animation are great. I hope the main series has this production. Honestly, I really loved the short look at all the singularities leading upto Babylonia. JAlter. <3 I should probably go read up on a summary of the story for all the singlarities though, I never read the story in the game but I do have a general idea of what happens. |
 |
| Great way to start and build up the hype. Seeing roman alive makes me so damn sad and happy :c |
 |
| i got no idea whats fully going on since this is my first anime about Grand Order although ye they are reviving the heroic spirits by fusing it with humans that are designer babies eh (pseudo-servants) |
corafima said: First Order first.Should I watch the First Order ep or this first? Even in game you get their backstory after the prologue. |
| Really good quality for episode 0 I'm sad that more than half Servants showed in the montage won't be in anime, unless they somehow adapt all others Singularity. HYPE FOR BABYLONIA!! |

| Honestly surprised at all the positive reactions to this, and it may be because I haven't played the game, but this seemed kind of... bad? The opening segment had some really poor action direction, and then the rest was just meh up until they suddenly made it into a disjointed montage with random bits of dialogue and things playing on screen, causing the episode to spiral into a nonsensical mess. |
 |
Jaces_Sanctum said: may be because I haven't played the game well, yes, it is Despite what a lot of people will tell you, the adaptations for FGO are for fans (that's a given since they literally let the fans chose what to adapt through a poll), and will not be especially anime only friendly. While you can mostly understand it if you haven't played FGO, it'll be a very different experience you'd get compared to someone who has played FGO, and a worse one, at that. |
| When i first saw the baylonia trailer i was like damn this is gonna be bad the characters look weird. But NO! I was wrong!! What a great episode,seeing more about romani brought me to tears,he was so kind and such a good boy. I ended it up watching it without subs on fgo but i only understood less than 1/4 of it,yet it pulled on my heart string especially the part where it shows the journey in every singularity :( I hope some day they adapt short ovas for solomon too,it would be VERY emotional |

| Oh boy those last 3-4 minutes when they showed some scenes from chapitres 2-6 hype overload! |

"Some really poor action direction" ... Well those sakugacircle big names like Kvin, Ashita, PurpleGeth, Bloodystar really loved this scene and (almost) everyone who saw it think the same (like me).. I don't really know how can u say that it was poor action direction but who I am to "criticize" someone. And that "nonsensical mess" was just a quick recap through the previous chapters and they even bother to do some quick sakuga when Mordred showed up |

| This was surprisingly good. Haven't played the game since I don't live in the US or Japan :( It was nice seeing Mashu's backstory and Dr. Romani. It was also nice seeing all those other servants like Ruler. |
 |
| Best girl Mash back for an entire series !! YESSS!! So glad Grand Order is getting a full series so we see some more Mash. Love her so much. Cant wait for the new season. |
| Yuritopia FTW!!!!!!!!! BANZAI TO YURI !!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Man this prequel was great. I have full faith in cloverworks to give us a great adaptation |
  Katsura janai, Zura da |
| It's a good anime? |
| This was so good. The quick previews of the characters through the previous singularities... amazing. |
| damn, da vinci is looking hot as fuck |
 |
| If they have shown this before First Order, people would've care more for Mashu. |

HeroVladimir93 said: After watching Fate/Apocrypha and Fate/Extra, I'm starting to think that the Fate anime isn't really beginner-friendly. You could start with Fate/Zero where the basics are better explained. Despite what many people say - like to begin with the Deen anime or whatever, F/Z is exactly what you call beginner-friendly. With it you can get your good story too. Apocrypha (the anime) was kind of average and overcrowded with characters, Extra (the anime) was a surrealistic mess. Maybe they created some kind of wrong impression about the franchise to you. Kaiser-kun said: If they have shown this before First Order, people would've care more for Mashu. Yeah but here we have some spoilers for First Order. |

If you're on iOS, there's a way too (can refer to r/grandorder and any major FGO group) I've been doing that (QooApp) for both JP & NA versions up to this day. Or just simply watching First Order anime, and read the VN parts on YouTube (or other places) abyss_will said: damn, da vinci is looking hot as fuck YES! |

As far as I remember, you only require it for the first installation, though, I do not remember if any other setting changes are required. |

| This was really good. Hyped for the anime in October. Gotta catch up to the Singularites fast, didn't play in a long time. |
| How is this related to First Order? |
 someone else always have what you want, but it usually means nothing to them... |

The game and Fate series are huge so they can make it by mostly pandering to the fans. |
Jaces_Sanctum said: they're assuming u already know the context behind the scenes since it did originally air within the game itself. newcomer-unfriendly =/= incoherent Aure0lin said: the studio is trying to make up for the fact that the first six main chapters haven't been animated by at least showing something, although the reason why those haven't been animated and is that the first five were hot garbage and chapter six production has been dragging its feet.
