Blah. I feel silly for never checking to see what AnimeSuki's pre-airing Fate/Zero thread is like. Well, I'm here now, so no harm done. Just a few things to say.

I'd like to put my prediction (and hopes) down for a Summer air date. Either way, isn't something about this going to be revealed at some convention thing near the end of this month? I definitely believe I saw something on ANN awhile back about ufotable being there, so hopefully we'll get more details (air date, composer) within the month.

Of course, I'm extremely thrilled ufotable is doing this and not DEEN. It's about time Fate got a good anime. Now if only it gets so insanely popular it leds to ufotable doing their own Fate/stay night adaptation afterwards.

And as for Nasu vs Gen. I think Nasu is a much better story-teller, but Gen is a bit more solid of a writer. I'd personally say I like Nasu better, but I honestly see no need to compare them. They are friends, their work tends to differ and is not easy to compare, and this is the product of Gen writing a Nasuverse story, so there should be no rivalry between them with this. Just sit back and enjoy the greatness of Fate.

And OMG GILGAMESH WHY ARE YOU SO AMAZING?!

If they did that, logically I think the only route they could animate at this point would be Heaven's Feel, considering the first anime was mostly Fate and the movie was UBW. Anything else would feel kind of like a rehash of what we've seen before.

Well, while I agree I'd mostly want to see them do Heaven's Feel, I also would love for them to do Fate or UBW because if it were done by ufotable rather than DEEN it might actually be good this time.

Or they could do the opposite of DEEN's original anime. Mostly Heaven's Feel with a bit of Fate and UBW elements in it. The ones that can kinda work anyway. Well, maybe at least just give Saber a tiny bit of her Fate resolution and throw in the Archer/Gilgamesh elements from UBW. It'd take a bit of changes to the source material, but it'd be one awesome anime coming from ufotable.

Alas, 'tis just a dream...

DragoZERO · 2011-03-13, 22:22

It has to be as verbatim as possible. No mixing of any routes like DEEN did. However, this is pretty off topic, so yeah... we can only dream.

So, air date yet?

None that I've heard of, unless it was recently announced and I missed it.

MainCharacter · 2011-03-14, 00:04

Just because DEEN did it horribly doesn't mean it can't be done well. Most of the loved adaptations of VNs, be it an anime or manga, mix the routes to some degree, up to the point where they can logically work in the route they have chosen. If it's handled competently, then it'd be awesome. Not that I wouldn't also love just a straight Heaven's Feel adaptation. But adding some Saber resolution, and the Archer and Gilgamesh situations from UBW to it, would likely make it the supreme adaptation of F/SN overall.

And I only mention it here, because it's what I am thinking would be a good sequel to Fate/Zero anime by ufotable. It'd be nice to see them follow up the prequel with their take on the main thing. But, I guess there isn't much that can be said on that until F/Z is over. So, yeah, okay, maybe a bit too off-topic for just this thread.

Well, honestly I think it's actually not possible to merge HF with the other two routes in any reasonable manner, because part of the point of HF is

Spoiler for HF:

Reckoner · 2011-03-17, 03:17

Yeah UBW elements and Fate elements can be combined... But HF is pretty much impossible and why it was such a failure in the F/S N anime. This coming from someone who likes UBW the best.

Haak · 2011-03-17, 03:43

Obviously you can't merge whole stories but I think you can merge elements of the other two routes into HF:

DragoZERO · 2011-03-17, 08:11

I think we should just drop this (again). This is not the place and we've talked about it numerous, numerous times.

RRW · 2011-03-17, 12:05

^ well this is what happens if you want to keep the thread alive

RadiantBeam · 2011-03-18, 23:27

Yeah, otherwise it's going to drop down and be buried in no time.

It's not like we have much else to do until the anime has an air date released.

Saber's going to have Irie all over her, isn't she?

It must be the suit.

I'd be totally okay with that

Once again, nothing bad to say about this promotional picture. It looks great!

MisaoFan · 2011-03-19, 14:30

Just like Fate/extra, I guess that the opening will be performed by ALI PROJECT.

RRW · 2011-03-19, 15:44

i have something to say thought...

that metal chain hand thing on saber hand (forgot eng word) look suspicious.

by the way MisaoFan you must show evidence before make random news

No new promotional images released lately? Seems odd that it would go quiet now...

Well, a trailer was supposed to have aired yesterday if the Anime Contents Expo wasn't canned.

That could be put into HF to give Shirou's U-turn more impact. Saber's backstory can actually be given at some point from her point of view, perhaps when she's Alter Saber. Ilya's interlude from UBW could be thrown in when Shirou takes down Dark Berserker. __________________ MAL \| AnimeSuki Choice Awards 2020 Winners
