What can I say? after re-watching Fate/Zero I am absolutely sure it is a masterpiece. This series played with my emotions. It made me feel anger, sorrow, joy, adrenaline, pain, sadness…
Visually is a wonder, every work Ufotable has done is utterly beautiful, the music is amazing, the characters are unique and charismatic and every single one of them has their own story. The pacing is great, and as a whole it’s a journey, a roller-coaster of emotions. I recommend this anime to anyone with good taste and likes Seinen. It’s an anime that leaves you with questions and more questions, making you wonder what’s going on, and later as the plot unfolds, you’d find answers. I love anime like this.
Characters [9/10]:
Not all the characters are perfect, that’s why I only give a 9/10. There are amazing and deep characters like Kiritsgugu, Kirei, Gilgamesh, Saber, Alexander among others that will captivate you with their stories, dialogs, and interactions. Sweet characters like Irisviel that immediately will make you care about them, other characters that you will like them to die, not because you don’t like them, but because they deserve it, or maybe they just made their part so good that you hate them. Others that, despite what they have done, you will feel letting them go.
Art [10/10]:
This anime has one of the most, if not the most, outstanding animations in the anime industry. I talk about Ufotable, this animation house always delivers amazing quality both in visuals and in audio. The animations are sharp and smooth, the use of CG is perfect, the FX additions make everything even prettier and amazing, making the battles a total carnival of light and speed. The choreography in the battles is also splendid, you can perceive the precision in every blow, every slash, every shot.
Music [10/10]:
I fell in love of the first OP as soon as I heard it, it was beautiful, it made me feel that I was to begging a journey and oh, what I journey it was. Every OP and ED was amazing, being my favorites “Oath Sign” as a OP and “MEMORIA” as ED, and then “To The Beginning” (2nd OP).
The soundtrack is very immersive and very melodic. Each song goes amazingly well with each situation. So it be clam, joy, suspense, danger… Just one song can set you in the correct mood, and even make you shed a tear.
Enjoyment [10/10]:
I think I’ve already explained myself here jaja. This is one of the best anime I ever seen, and it still is. I loved every second, every minute, every fight, every resolution, every backstory, from the beginning to the very end.
If you want a story to enjoy asking yourself questions, wanting to learn more about the characters, why they do what they do, what they seek to win, and many more and specially if you are a patience person (patience is a virtue) then this a series you will love as I did since the very first episode.
If you are reading this and you have not watched yet Fate/Zero I hope this just gives you the motivation to watch it and enjoy one of the best anime I’ve ever seen.
