This is one of the best Fate spin-offs without an adaptation imo. This should be good!
The 1 hour special had an interesting animation style so I’m interested in seeing the full story.
It was an OK watch. They tried hard to explain the whole fate series so new watchers wouldn’t be confused
Huh, interesting that I come here on my programming.dev account and only see 2 of the comments that I saw as OP on my lemmy.world account. I wonder if there’s a lot more defederation going on than I realized…
Do I need to watch other Fate anime before watching this?
It would be best to watch at least one of the main shows first, just to understand the lore and setting, but there won’t be any direct plot tie-ins or anything like that.
If you do want to just watch one show for the background, I’d recommend Fate/Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works if you like more shounen-y shows, or Fate/Zero if you prefer darker and grittier shows, with heavier themes. Either one works fine as an entry point.
I have seen most of Fate catalog available on Netflix like zero, UBW, apocrypha, FGO and last encore. Also seen the heaven’s feel movies. It has been a few years, though. Good to know I can directly jump into this one.
It’s not that surprising that we’re getting a full anime. I’m pretty sure they did the same thing with the El-Melloi II case files. Still hyped for the show though.
