Fate/Zero BD release is uncut and uncensored. There are scenes that were cut due to broadcast time and scenes censored due to the violence. Therefore, we now have more to discuss. Episode Thread Spoiler Policy
Please remember that, although Fate/Zero is chronologically the prequel of Fate/Stay Night and Fate/Hollow Ataraxia, this series might be discovered by those who did not watch the previous series or read the Visual Novel. Therefore, although events are likely to be connected with the story regarding the 5th Holy Grail War, please do not post any F/SN spoiler in any F/Z thread. |

Anybody else noticing the atrocious sound the BDs have? Volume is up and down all the time, like normalization gone bad, and is annoying as hell in the combat scenes like in epidode 5. Take a look at when Gilgamesh is throwing stuff at Berserker, volume is so fucking borked there.
My review: image quality is excellent, but sound quality is horrible. Added scenes are meh at best. |

The uncut scenes are great. We see how the Assassins were ordered to attack in episode 11 and Sola-Ui and Lancer's discussion before heading out in episode 13. I'm surprised they left those parts since they do add a lot. Luckily they included them in the BD.
As for the uncensored stuff... really disturbing. So horrible. What makes it worse is you start to feel bad for the villains that their lair was destroyed and their "art" ruined. It's wrong to feel bad for them! How perplexing! I think my favorite addition was Saber and Iri when they arrived in Japan from Russia. One notable thing was they mentioned how Saber cannot change form like the other Servants. I totally forgot about that. I think it's just a plot device so we see her more. Quote:
Can't play the BDs on my computer. But... you don't want to see them.

Oh so the uncensored Caster's scenes is pretty disturbing? I heard the manga was more disturbing because it depicted exactly like what described in the novel, but the anime tamed it more because ufotable doesn't want the selling point is the gore.

And even if it is a plot device, it's not like it doesn't have an appropriate explaination. Then the people who proclaim absolute knowledge (not saying you're proclaiming that, but I've seen others try to act like they are on here enough times) need to fix it, or make an easily accessible alternative that is accurate. Rather tired of seeing a comment about how it isn't always accurate every time someone mentions the wiki, regardless of whether what they're stating is accurate or not.

Ack, I forgot about this! In some scenes there are specks of light... it looks like dust particles reflecting light to me. Has anyone else noticed these? They are easy to notice when Saber and Iri enter the storehouse at their "new base."

Plus sound effects. I am glad they toned it down from the novel.

Since many ones wanted to see the alternative scenes, here on this blog they were screenshotted until episode 09 (the rest should follow the next days I guess).
http://www.kira-reviews.com/blog/archives/1280 http://www.kira-reviews.com/blog/archives/1444 Didn't watch my BDs yet, since I need a new HDMI cable but I will start tomorrow watching. Can't wait to see the Drama CD and last Einsbern episode translated. |
