So I made this thread in 2016, and I set the bar at 5 years to include shows like OreImo, Raildex and Squid Girl which all weren't very old but defenitely felt like they were from another era of anime. Now even pic related is going to qualify to post on this thread, but it still feels like it have aired this season. I'm not sure when exactly it happened, but anime evolved somewhere around 2014 and hasn't changed a whole lot since then.

I feel like we've been in the post Love Live/SAO era for a while. cute girls + sports-like competitions and isekai shows. Not that there aren't plenty of other good series being made, but it seems like they never reach that level of popularity to start new trends.

Also it seems like the industry has been pouring a lot of resources into relatively unsuccessful reboots of old series these past few years.

I'm watching Fate/Zero in preparation of playing through hollow ataraxia! I also watched the infamous Studio DEEN adaptation! It wasn't "that" bad, it could've been an okay adaptation of the Fate route if they didn't decide to do their own thing with the Caster plotline...

The problem here isn't plotlines, it's the animation + panache that does the job. I mean particular ridiculous scenes definitely have their share too, but they would probably just be remembered as a bunch of goofy moments if the anime didn't look so bad overall

I'm used to watching older stuff so the visual quality didn't really phase me although the fight between Archer and Berserker was pretty dull thanks to that. It's pretty much what I'd expected from a TV series from that time but the UBW movie that Studio DEEN produced had the same quality so I can see that being a problem there.
I think the main issue is the story and how they try to add elements from the Heaven's Feel route despite them not fitting at all narratively or even lore wise. The entire Caster plotline simply doesn't make sense and tries to cram in Tohsaka's and Sakura's relationship but just ends up rushing and butchering it completely, basically spoiling the plot for anyone who hasn't played the VN without any of the emotional payoff.
I think it would've been fine if they took some elements from the UBW route like they did, perhaps spending more time to flesh out Archer as a character but Heaven's Feel is just so different from the other two routes that I can't really think of a sensible way to incorporate that into a cohesive plot that still uses the Fate route as the base.
It's a shame that they felt the need to add elements from all three routes instead of just sticking to the Fate route, it was unnecessary and turned an average series into a rather bad one. It could've been a good entry point for people who don't want to spend the time to play through the VN but as it stands I wouldn't really recommend it to any newcomer to FS/N since I imagine it being very confusing for someone who doesn't know what's going on thanks to everything being rushed while also spoiling all the major plot points from the VN on top of that, ruining the entire experience with no benefit to the viewer.
I haven't watched the Ufotable adaptations of the UBW and Heaven's Feel routes yet so maybe I'll check those out after I finish ataraxia just for comparison's sake! I'll definitely need to take a break form the Nasuverse after that though...

Yeah, I definitely can agree that DEEN's attempts of sticking elements from other routes into Fate were off-putting. Though I think they could hypothetically still go the way of universalism, if only they had made those elements more suggestive instead of plainly cuttig off fragments of other routes and desperately trying to fit them where they don't belong. You know, like making hints about Archer's true character like it was done in the VN route itself (I think it was that one scene when he briefly spoke with Shirou about his ideals at night) or perhaps providing a little bit more elaborate reasoning behind Shinji's participation in The Holy Grail War than in the VN. Then it could've been a nice tour to Fate/Stay Night as a whole, which wouldn't spoil anuthing but rather encourage people to read the VN in order to figure out all remaining mysteries. But even then, given what we have in reality, I still believe that it could have been a lot more enjoyable if it wasn't for the visuals. I mean, now that I recall all other anime from that period I have seen, I can agree that maybe they really aren't that bad in little portions, but when the director's imagination reaches its climax in unforgettable Archer vs Lancer fight, scene at the ruins, CGI dragon allegory, etc. their subpar quality becomes quite transparent. And the thing is that Fate is filled with climatic - or just epic - moments to the brim, so in the end I got to find myself at a loss for at least half the run, and honestly I believed that was the case with other people as well. But oh well, maybe I'm just to exacting.
>I haven't watched the Ufotable adaptations of the UBW and Heaven's Feel routes yet
Well, they are far from perfect too, but I found them more pleasing visually and more cohesive plot-wise, especially UBW, which I personally consider to be the best adaptation of all three. So good luck with that.
>after I finish ataraxia
Now that was a great VN sigh... I think I liked it just as much as FSN, although they are very different. Plot aside and characters aside, the minigames were surprisingly quite good, and soundtrack was on point too (as well as hundreds of its nice remixes like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0ZYNwvVn2w). Plus, HA explores some secondary characters in more depth than FSN, so even despite being all SoL at firts glance, it still stays true to its roots, somewhat. Like I said, it's a really good VN. So have fun!

I've never gotten around reading the VN, but I watched the 2006 F/SN back when it came out and it was pretty off-putting for the franchise. Shirou came off as terribly chauvinistic, and his whole "Trace On" ability frequently seemed to amount to "I can do everything that everyone else can do but better" type situations that you'd expect from a bad fanfiction. Or I guess in modern times, a bad isekai show.

I keep thinking someday I should read the VN though, pretty much everyone I've talked who's read it has said that the 2006 anime is a terrible adaptation.

Shirou does resemble a typical shounen protagonist in a sense (in addition to pursuing the kawaii ideal) that he constantly gets beaten the hell out of but at the most decisive moment does a bunch of projections and comes out on top, doing what seemed impossible just two scenes ago. Still, there is progression to his skill which takes him a lot of effort, and VN clearly shows that his abilities aren't limitless either. And the proccess of facing a stronger enemy is also exucted in a very suspense-like manner in all routes, which in combination with a sense of mystery that's present throughout the whole VN creates a really thrilling atmospshere, which alone makes the VN worth reading. And the same can be actually said to Ufotable adaptations, though to a bit lesser extent, in my opinion.

Yea they could've given Shirou and Archer more screen time together, adding some night talks near the shed between the two would've been an easy way to develop their relationship. I also wish we learned more about Shinji's and Shirou's friendship in the VN, like maybe a childhood flashback or something, because it's hard to understand how the two became friends in the first place with how different their personalities are. That's another missed opportunity that they could've capitalized on in the anime. The problem with uniting all three routes into one is Heaven's Feel, if that was their plan they should've used that route instead of Fate for their base. Fate and UBW are relatively similar but with Zouken joining the war the plot just branches off into a completely different direction from the other two.
The CGI dragon looked pretty terrible but I didn't pay much attention to that scene since it wasn't even in the original VN and they just added it to replace an h-scene. But yea the COOOOOOOL action scenes are the main attraction of the VN so I can imagine how the bad quality could be off-putting to a lot of people. At least ufotable did a better job with those in Fate/Zero!

>>44346
I didn't like Shirou as a protagonist when I first played the VN years ago but he's grown on me on my recent second playthrough! He's naive and idealistic but these character flaws are explored thoroughly in the UBW route. The 2006 anime did a very poor job of explaining how Shirou's magic actually works. The VN makes a point of his "strengthening" ability being borderline useless while putting his life at risk every time he uses it. He finds out about projection magic pretty late in most routes and using it is even riskier while only allowing him to function as a back-up for Saber most of the time. There's only a few specific circumstances where he's able to beat an opponent all by himself. His abilities definitely weren't portrayed as overpowered in the VN and there was the possibility of him dying every time you make a wrong decision.
I'd definitely recommend playing through the Fate route of the VN at least! You can still watch the ufotable adaptations of the other two routes afterwards if you decide that you prefer those over playing the VN but you'll miss out on some interesting Bad Ends on the Heaven's Feel route and all of the funny Tiger Dojo episodes!
Just providing more context for Fate/Zero, which has the best narrative in the entire Nasuverse in my opinion, makes FS/N worth a playthrough. Even though the outcome is clear from the start to anyone who read the VN they still manage to tell a compelling story while introducing several new characters and explaining their motives and backstory all the while having amazing action scenes in almost every episode. Studio DEEN on the other hand had trouble simply retelling the story of the VN in the same amount of episodes.
