Because Fate is a cluster fuck of like 10 different series not really sure how to even designate a forum section for this one.

How do the three heavens feels movies compare to UBW, as well as Fate/Zero? I understand they have much higher average ratings, with Heavens Feel III being the highest rated Fate entry ever.

Wasnt a huge fan of either series, felt it had insane potential and great characters. Unfortunately just plagued with a lot of minor mistakes

- It's the conclusion of the Fate/SN timelines so you kind of need to watch those movies to get the whole picture: the story and the lore (For example they explain why and how the Holly Wars started).
- Story wise it's better than UBW but not as good as Fate/Zero.
- The third movie has some great fights including the famous Salter (Saber Alter) vs Medusa x Shiro.

Heaven's Feel could've been the best Fate, but as what happened in Fate Stay Night (2006) and Fate UBW, Emiya Shirou ruined everything.

It's not a coincidence that the best Fate doesn't have this guy.
If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time.

Watch more movies, please.

Perhaps, this is hell.

Honestly, Heaven’s feel is worse than UBW and Zero, the reason why it’s score is so high is because most people are blinded with flashy animation and they like to masturbate to ecchi scenes in the anime.
Story-wise it’s absolute trash so it’s honestly not worth watching compared to UBW and Zero, if you want something flashy to watch with the brain turned off, then watch it.

Fate zeros fights were so fucking bad compared to UBW

Heaven's Feel is the 2nd best storyline in the Fate franchise, with Fate/Zero claiming the top spot.

But in order to understand Heaven's Feel, you need to read Fate (blech) and Unlimited Blade Works first.

This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi!

I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom:

"Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news.
Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people.
Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation.
There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime.
You should be watching Carole & Tuesday."

UBW is mid. HF is also above mid but far from a 'very good' show. F/Z is a masterpiece.

I’m sad that I actually did…
90% of it’s runtime is SoL with Rin and Shirou cooking stuff and discussing pointless things you already know

The story and characters are presented in a more mature way, a 13 years old kind of mature way.

I mean. I tried other Nasu work called 'Tsukihime' and had to drop it too. It was corny af.


F/Z is actually from a different author (who also made Madoka Magica). Thats why it has different undertone as compared to other Fate works.

I kinda like that serious tone more.

Worse than Fate UBW and Fate Zero, better than the rest. Sakura is such an annoying character.

Best Fate animation, but it would have been better if it was produced as a TV series instead.

Fate HF has the best Fate animation. Story wise is not as good as Fate Zero but better than Fate UBW

Fate/Zero is still the best entry in the series. Heaven's Feel comes at a close second it's easily better than UBW in everyway. The huge downside is you have to watch UBW and then Heaven's Feel as the first Heaven's Feel movie kind of glosses over the important beginning moments.

The best you will get of any fate characters is carnival phantasm. If you havent watched it then you have literally watched nothing of the fate series.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

its shit and cuts out too much of the characters from the vn, either read the source material or dont consume it at all. the director is a massive fan of the wormslut so he decided it'd be a great idea to cut out the illya and kirei interactions in favor of the relationship he ends up butchering at the end

The only good thing about is Sakura who is better then rin and the animation is on another level but story wise it isn't anything amazing also the ending won't make sense if you haven't seen Kara no kyoukai

The visual novel was better. Second only to Zero. Movie version was good enough, very visually appealing.

If you weren't a fan of zero or UBW I highly doubt heavens feel is going to change your mind. I personally think heavens feel was the best storyline from the original visual novel and the movies do do a decent job at adapting it. Though some chunks of the story are skipped over to make it fit the 3 movies runtimes, they tell the main story regarding Sakura Matou very well. The ending isn't well explained though, and does require a deeper knowledge of type moons other works to fully make sense of it.

My favorite part of Fate series and possibly my favorite anime. No anime made me so invested in its main characters as Heaven's Feel did with Shirou and Sakura.

The animation is excellent. The concept is great as it is in most of fate. Characters are pretty bad and lack development, worst out of Zero and UBW. Shirou and Archer dynamic that made Shirou a decent character in UBW is missing. The animation was so good I gave them 8 across the board. Would have been 6 or 7 otherwise.

Horrible as an adaptation, which goes for UBW and Deen's 2006 Fate as well, but more or less the best animated Fate overall. Including Fate/Zero. I wouldn't recommend watching anything Fate related because the things that don't have bad adaptations, like Zero and Apocrypha, are bad anyway and the good stuff is just poorly adapted without resembling the source at all quality wise. Though Lost Butterfly is pretty good the other two films aren't.

It's easily the best Fate series. Just because Emiya Shirou was carrying the entire show on his back.
Though if Fate Stay Night was remaked by ufotable or if Hollow Ataraxia was adapted, then those would be the Best Fate of all time.


I wasted all my time in rewatching to the point of my rewatch total is higher than my overall anime total lmao

I actually think Heavens feel is better than Zero because about half of the plot points in Zero were taken from HF route. But it is necessary to watch other FSN routes first (or at least UBW) before watching HF.
Do note that I have only seen the first movie and played the VN.

Yeah right, sakura's character didn't even make the movies better like the fans proclaimed.

Best by a comfortable amount when it comes to animation. And just the best in general for many.

Personally fate/zero is my favorite but Heaven's feel is still very good
