I know what your saying and I can tell you that that is not the case. Authors don't always understand specifically where they're getting their inspirations from, but they can only write from what they know, their own experiences, and they can't write from what they don't know or never experienced. In times like these, they can only look at their finished works in retrospect and guess what experiences they were writing from. Given the same premise, two authors with different experiences would naturally produce different stories. The fact remains that only you, the creator, had the final say because only you could write what happened next. What could have been doesn't matter since it never was.

So apparently Rei has been trying to get this anime made for YEARS and it was originally meant to be an original story featuring characters from various real works including Fate and be a battle royal.
The reason it failed? The different creators kept bickering over which one of their characters was going to win it and how the story should go. Oh well. Saber VS Mikoto never.

Spoiler for Meeting between Toriyama, the JSDF, or US Forces Japan:
That, or if the Japanese authorities are not completely incompetent or written out of this story, they might issue an order that, until a means has been established to prevent further fictional incursions into our reality, all authors must nerf any overpowered characters to make them vulnerable to conventional small arms fire. |

I more or less echo the general thoughts on the audiovisual begin quite good and plotting and direction leaning on the iffy side as of now. The dialogue is a bit too pretentious as well, mostly whenever that white haired twin tailed girl is on screen. Nerdy Joe is about as bland as he looks so there no surprise there. It's a decent premiere all in all though.
One thing I'm really curious about though was who that sucide girl in beginning was. That part totally seems disconnected from rest of episode/premise... |

Firstly, author decide how he writes a story, he may write a story, where cause and effect to not exist, because things every time are decided by god (such philosophy developed at some point in Muslim world, causing it to fall behind West in development). But as we know now, such things like law of nature exist. So analogy may not hold a point here, if God self-restraint himself. Aside that, you need to decide what free will is, and change point of view to a being, which exist in such world. If free will for you means, that to have power to determine you existence and northing else can predetermine your "settings" without your control, then in fact unless something is an omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent being, it cant have a free will. With such thinking, even if such being do not exist, but world simply exist with law of nature created randomly, then I still do not have a free will, because my whole life was already determined during Big Bang, but without any being backing that. In such case it doesn't matter, if omnipotent god exist or not, when talking about existence of free will, so discussions about god deciding about our life is pointless by default, because our life is determined either way. I disagree with such definition of free will, for me free will means, that being can make a decisions based on collected informations, experience and inborn characteristics, then I have a free will, in case when I want a apple, but something forcefully remove that thought from my existence, then my free will is taken away. The only way to created a conflict between my free will and God free will would be to add to my "settings" a confirmed information, what God wills and decide about my actions, so I may oppose it. Unless this happen, from my point of view, there is no intervention into my natural state and I have free will. Another thing comes together with probabilistic nature of physical phenomena at atomic scales, described in quantum mechanics. Maybe God created a spectrum of infinite possibilities, and so had given us part of his free will, but aside that, he knows a outcome? Although that's would be a paradox, but from the other hand, do he cared about what happens and what outcome would be? What, if he let some things just be randomly and accepted results? Then off course you may argue back, that god by deciding about letting things be randomly or not determined world anyway, but with your thinking free will simply do not exist whether god or Bing Bang created us. Of course all of that assuming, that omnipotent creator and creations and completely separated disconnect things, because if not, then things became even more interesting. PS. I'm complete amateur in philosophy.

Quite the action packed first episode. Last Action Hero: anime version indeed.
The intriguing thing is that I've heard this a 2 cour anime. This could develop in quite interesting directions.
