Fate/Stay Night

It has its flaws with keeping consistency with majority of the characters present but it does a well done job beong consistent in the atmospheric and emotional impact department, If you care so much I would recommend you watch this first then watch the remake show Fate: Unlimited Blade Works, the tone is completely different and characters are behaving differently as well, I'm almost halfway through the remake and it tries so hard to fix the mistakes the original did and I appreciate it so far even though they made it feel more anime and cheesy the original is more grim compared to it, so it's your call if you want to watch both or whatever.

VN Route Rating: 8.0

The Fate series consists of three-story routes. I am rating the source material (Visual Novel) for this route, not this anime adaptation. The Fate/stay night Fate route was great, the lore was executed well and nearly all major questions were answered. The dark undertone of the story was well done and the ending was satisfyingly realistic. It was unpredictable and there were little to no plot armors. Cons: it had a slow start, there were large wordy info dumps, there were a little too many flashbacks and it doesn't have a good anime adaptation. Other than that this is a solid story.

Good Anime, Good Story but in my opinion something is missing that makes the anime better.

Fate Stay Night is a very entertaining anime which focuses on the survival of a young guy who, without really wanting it, takes part in this elimination tournament to get The Holy Grail.

To win, each contestant get a servant to help them. These companions are summoned from either the past, present or future and that is one of the most intriguing parts of this anime; finding out who each companion is as most do not reveal their identity until the very end.

Overall the story has a few plot holes in my opinion when it comes to the servants and some of the characters in the story don't seem very realistic, however, the battles are quite fun to watch and the ending managed to get me extremely emotional despite me not truly being attached to any of the characters.

Definitely worth watching!

I've watched the first 17 episodes and this series is simply amazing! I haven't been this interested in an anime series since Neon Genesis Evangelion. This series is actually based off an h-game, which I'm not sure if it's been done before or not, I haven't played the game, but from what I've heard it follows it very well.

I give this series a 10/10. It has a great story, interesting characters, and some of the best animation I've seen. It also has some great Japanese music in it too!

If you haven't seen this series yet, check it out. You can find subbed episodes on some anime websites out there, it's straight out of Japan.
