Fate/Zero

[Ryllharu]

Perhaps more like the moment the last sliver of hope that Sakura had disappears. I don't think she really believed Kariya when he hugged her and told her he would save her after what she had gone through almost immediately after being taken in, but deep down she might have hoped it could be true.

Of course we don't really know what Kariya actually said to her or how much Zouken told her what Kariya had done, we only got to see Kariya's final hallucination.

I did smirk at the quick flash of Kirei reveling in Rin's tears. It was only for a second, but he smiled at seeing her break down. It was also nice to find out that Kiritsugu didn't willingly abandon Ilya. He tried to get her back, so he could keep her safe. That just accelerated his death and hopelessness.

The dagger scene was perfect. It was Kirei's greed for suffering that eventually led to his death.

Fate/Stay Night Heavens Feel adaptation by ufotable confirmed

WHAT UP!???

The moonrunes on that page says it's HF (with a credible source)? From what I've seen, people don't (yet) know what it's going to be, but many guess a remake.

I don't really know what to hope for, since I consider a UBW series highly unlikely with the movie already made. The first anime hasn't aged too well and is a bit of a mess towards the end, so Fate could also use a retelling. HF is my least favourite of the routes, but of course I'd happily watch it animated.

My body is ready.

Okay, more motivation to finish HF then.

Sorry for bumping this as there are other Fate threads... but I finally began watching Fate/Zero, and just finished the first season. I only have to say 3 things for now.

First, this has been much better than I anticipated and hoped so far.

Second, pretty much love all the characters with few exceptions... some real badasses from the Masters side.

Third, it's now disappointing to see what ufotable has moved towards to animation-wise (more CGI) in projects since then.

Anyways, hope the 2nd season is even better, and I really like this format of "hour" long episodes. Not sure how the release schedule was when it was airing though, and how censored the episodes were... lots of blood in the BD version.

[Buffalobiian]

I'm pretty sure only the first episode of each season was 1hr long, and the rest were half-hr eps.

I'm pretty sure only the first episode of each season was 1hr long, and the rest were half-hr eps.

Hmm... you're quite correct. Not sure why I had that impression. I was sure I had checked, and guess I felt each episode had plenty going on... regardless, you're right.

[KrayZ33]

Fate Zero had really good pacing in my opinion, that's probably why you felt they lasted longer.

[Munsu]

And done with the series. This was a very cool series, and it certainly surpassed my expectations. Only wish we didn't spend so much time throughout the series with Waver.

Also wish we had spent more time with Kiritsugu.

Nothing more to say I guess, on to the next one when I can then... Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works TV? Or which?

[Kraco]

The UBW series also has BD rips available. I suggest you get those. But yes, watch that series next.
