Fate/kaleid liner PRISMA☆ILLYA - Overall Series Impressions & Total Series Rating

[Kairin]

This thread is to be used for discussing the entire episodes of Fate/kaleid liner PRISMA☆ILLYA ... your thoughts about the show, overall impressions, expectations and hopes about Blu-Ray/DVD-exclusive footage etc.

A few subjects you might want to ramble on about:

• General impression of the series.
• Opinions on the overall story, writing & plot devices.
• Thoughts about the animation quality.
• Characters/Character Design
• Voice Acting
• Which kind of footage (Blu-Ray/DVD-exclusive) you feel you'd really like to see.
• What the show meant to you.
• What could the creators/animators/writers have done better.

And so on.

The poll represents your total series rating. In other words, how you would rate all the episodes combined (1-10)? If you'd rather rate the whole series by technical/artistic merits, you can do so. An example:

Animation Quality: 1-10
Voice Actors: 1-10
Script: 1-10
Soundtrack: 1-10
Editing: 1-10
Enjoyment: 1-10
Emotional Involvement: 1-10

Average = Total Series Rating

Or a combination of the two. Or your general gut feeling.

Feel free to discuss and more importantly, have fun

I read the first series years ago, so I had not fear that this would not be worthy of the Fate/Series. In fact, it's my favorite because it's not pretentious, while keeping the same characters and references to the rest of Type Moon verse as well as other mahou shoujo series. From what I remember of the manga, Silver Link's adaptation was faithful, if a bit short. I think stretching the show by one more episode would have been enough time to cover the few skipped scenes. Everything after the fantastic Saber battle was a bit anticlimactic, but then again a straight adaptation of the manga, so no serious criticisms there. The story was not all that, but I know the meat is coming in Zwei, so can't find fault there either.

9/10. Turned out to be my favorite of the season. Not that I didn't expect it, but when it came to managing story, themes, and characters, all of the other one-cour shows I watched this season had major failings this did not.

This anime just restored some of my wish for a good Mahou Shoujo anime

and of course with Fate's background, this anime is easily become my favorite

I love most of the characters like Irisviel, Rin, Luvia, Illya, and Miyu...
but we clearly need a season 2 to give a complete review about this anime

8/10 from me to this series
great animation though

Gotta say that while I am not a big fan of the Fate series in general (not bad, just not really interesting for me) this series was kinda cute. I was finally able to finish it recently, and definitely enjoyed it as a good mahou shoujo series. ^^

Kinda curious about s2....

This is the second magical girl anime I have ever enjoyed,(the first being madoka magica). I found it immensly enjoyable. It was fantastic.

Season 2 is currently my second mosy anticipated anime of 2014, the first being ufotable stay night.

I dropped this show when it came out upon seeing Shiro's face in the first 5 min.

That was a terrible mistake. This is the 2nd straight Magical Girl show I have absolutely loved (PMM being the first). The comedy was hilarious, the animation was beautiful, the characters were awesome and the fight scenes were sensational. That battle of Archer-Illiya and Saber Alter - Bah Gawd!! That was Fate Zero levels of awesomeness.

I had hoped that they would drop the "friends" shtick by now and grown a backbone. Meh. The writers do a terrible job of portraying their relationship as anything other than romantic - I kind of feel weird saying that about elementary students but, whatever Myu's behavior at the end pretty much confirms it.

All in all, 9/10. Now, onto second season.

That's actually the point. 100% intentional (at least on Miyu's end) by the author.

Hmm, is that so. I guess this show is better in that, at least there is no ambiguity about their relationship among their friends, at least.
