    Despite some minor less than awesomely done scene, the overall quality is nice.Also, knowing so much about the show steals some of the fun.
    I think I read here, or somewhere else, that the quality we have in 00 and 01 might be different from the rest of the season. We'll see when it happens.


    For the moment, it seems the anime really follows the Visual Novel as a script. But it might be my memory isn't that good and I'm being a little too optimistic.


    Strange how the Crunchy sub wrote white instead of red for Archer... I guess quality check isn't that easy, I don't remember when, but there's at least another mistake, a word forgotten... And probably others. I wish there were some serious quality fansub for that show. I guess we'll have to wait.

    I was worried about spending a whole 50 minutes doing the same days with Shirou, but it turned out okay.

    That Lancer vs. Saber was great. Gae Bolg visualization was amazing.
    As always, the "Maybe its a bow" line is funny.

    The flashback with Kiritsugu in the hospital was super awkward with all of the other kids staring at them.

    Worst character. As Shirou suggested, she should go hang out with her friends (the worms).

    Avalon solves all problems!

    I also think it is funny how in this one he stops Saber with a command seal and she's like "How could you use a command seal for this?"
    He's like "I don't know what the heck you're even talking about!?"

    Well, you remember all of the story, their stare has weight. I can't spoil you since everything has been presented at least once, but I won't tell anymore because it wouldn't be fun otherwise.

    Oh yes, I remember where all the orphans end up.

    Really though, they're just staring at him because they're like "Seriously? Gonna talk about how you're adopting him in front of the rest of us?"
    Pretty messed up, really, that Kiritsugu acts like they don't even exist. He's obviously super traumatized, but still.

    I guess Shirou is the only one Kiritsugu actively saved, he didn't have any contact with the others before. So they are like strangers to him. Also, he probably has his mind like in a tunnel due to the shock and he can only see Shirou right now.
    Last but not least, he felt Shirou has some mage powers in him, so he's the only one he can interact with since normal people must stay out of the grail and mage worlds.

    maybe you've forgotten HOW he saved him?

    now about this episode:
    1) missed scene with fujimura falling and getting woken up by TAIGA shout. i kinda wanted that one
    2) the Tohsaka fan-club trio was a nice addition.
    3) great touch that they used F/Z music(remixed) for things that happened in the past.
    4) Sakura got more lively which is nice.
    5) Issei VA was horribad.

    The visuals during the action scenes are stunning..
    I like how they animated the "healing scene", you could tell that they often use the same angles and scenes from the VN, which is cool by itself, but they made it look alot better - the new music, the sound effects, everything fits so well together. My hopes are that they can keep this up, I doubt that the animation quality will stay this good throughout the series but it would be nice if they are able to keep the spirit and atmosphere. A fine job so far

    Please don't ruin it now!

    I don't recall Fate Zero becoming bad at any point. UBW also has plenty of parts where they don't need to burn yens like crazy. It's basically the fights they really need to pay attention to, and a few other atmospheric scenes, and even those have more and less important ones. Based on these two long eps so far, I reckon the director knows what he's doing.

    I'm sure the budget for this is huge. They know it's going to sell like hotcakes anyway.

    If I recall, there are far more fights in F/SN than F/0, so the animation concern may be legitimate.

    I was going to say this had been cut more aggressively than the intro eps, but then I decided to check the game and noticed not so much had been scissored after all. Although at the same time it has to be mentioned that something did meet that fate, and it's a bit troubling it was specifically the lines of Shirou being impressed of or admiring Rin. At least we did get a single Rin tsundere moment! Maybe this show won't be purely action oriented like the movie, even if the cutting in general is.

    Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to the literally heavy action with Berserk now!

    And people were worried that the action in the rest of the episodes won't be as good as 00 and 01.

    It's clear that the eye candy awesomeness levels were quite high in that ep.
    Even knowing all of the story, it remains an enjoyable watch.
    Somehow, good animation must be a little cheaper. Because this year's UBW and Bahamut are very nice.

    Wow... I'm speechless. H-How? How much money did... I can't even..

    Yay! This is so nice to look at. I'm not 100% sure but the "Rin vs Illyasviel" fight didn't happen in the game. right? Such a refreshing addition! *Nice*. Lasers!

    Sheesh! Why is Anime so expensive, I'd totally buy the Blu-rays but no amount of eye-candy can justify those prices

    obligatory comment on why I will most likely not be able to buy this despite its level of quality- check.

    So we are at EP 07 now



    Archer is such a beast, yeah its "his" route and he was a badass in the VN, too, but this cleary tops it.
    Assassin was a lot stronger than I remember and .... extremely bored? No, thats not the right description. I don't know, he's this certain vibe to him like "what am I even doing here... My life sucked, I had nothing better to do than killing swallows."

    I remember that he was looking for a good fight, but he is somewhat annoyed this time around, it's funny.

    Amazing episode. The fight sequence when Saber grabbed Assassin's sword was amazing. The Caladbolg shot was also awesome. Heck, every single fight in this series is better than 95% of the stuff out there.
