The sad thing about Saber is that most anime fans that stick to the ufotable adaptations don't get to experience her character. She only shows her depth in the original Fate VN and the Deen anime nobody wants to watch, and the other stories straight up don't focus on her. She's the poster child of the Fate series for a reason, just the stories most people consume don't really show why.

The way I got into Fate was watching Zero, then Blade Works, then giving in and reading the visual novel. This was an alright-ish way of getting into it. Zero is a fine starting point for the series. It stands on its own, shows off the strengths of the series, and doesn't spoil *too* much of Stay Night. I still wish I had started with the visual novel, or at least read it before any of its adaptations. The visual novel is the intended entry point for the series, and everything else kind of assumes you've already read it. It has adaptations, but they're incomplete and have issues. DEEN Stay Night is obviously notorious, but even the Ufotable adaptations run into inevitable issues in adapting it. First is the issue of the VN being long and the fact that you'll inevitably have to cut stuff out to make it fit the run time they're going for, which can leave stuff feeling underexplained or confusing. Second is that it cuts out all the many dead ends where the protagonist dies horribly because you made the wrong choice, which makes him feel kind of invincible as the VN relies on these to add the sense of danger that would usually be achieved by killing off a red shirt or something. Third is that it cuts out the protagonist's internal monologue, which is where most of his characterization happens, leaving him a lot more one-dimensional feeling (some anime watchers straight up hate him, which is something I haven't seen from visual novel readers). Some people say it's too much of an investment, which I can kind of see, but really it's a picture book with music, it isn't exactly heavy reading. And while it is long, it's split up into three separate stories, which are each of a more reasonable length individually. Skim the cooking scenes and turn the voices off and you'll breeze through it.

SMT1 was ok but i feel like i would like it a lot more if it was remade. I also tried SMT if but i kinda got bored and dropped it, the almost identical layout to SMT1 put me off. I just couldn't really get into DeSu1 because it didnt appeal to me that much same with raidou vs the soulless army. SMT4 looks interesting but getting over the bad looking UI is really tough. I absolutely love the music for SJ and I've been thinking of trying it out for a while but not sure yet. My main gripe is with random encounters and just being so outdated that i find it hard to enjoy (the snes games).

"I Hate Saber" Me: Oh shit here we go again Fun fact about Fate: Zero... They completely get Saber's character so wrong Nasu himself doesn't consider it canon. While I don't necessarily agree with this idea Zero does get her character very very wrong and if there was a GOOD version of the Fate route I could show you what I'm talking about. It boils down to how she goes about the king's party in Zero and how she talks with her master. While both are accurate they are also heavily inaccurate on her reactions. I'm no good exactly explaining it(If this was Mordred Saber I could tell you better but alas this is Artoria Saber) so I'll leave it at this.

I think another reason why Zero portrayed her like that is too highlight Kiritsugu's actions as necessary (and well not evil by making Saber look naive) and also to highlight king Alexander. Alexander needed to look wise in the ways of the king, so what is an easy way to do so? By making another king character look bad. Unfortunately it seems they forgot that King Arthur in the Nasuverse is supposed to be an ideal king. Heck, I love Saber since the Deen adaptation, but when I watched Zero and its narrative made it look like she was naive compared to Alexander and Kiritsugu, I thought, " yeah they are right". But then later on after seeing some youtube scenes, it was when it hit me, Zero did not try to make them look as just right and their conversations with Saber are more deeper than that but the way they did it with their transition it fails to give such message to the audience thus it becomes the kind interaction that have to be seen again isolated in short clips (which means their narrative is too focus in making the audience like Kiritsugu and Alexander's views by making another character look bad in order to not seem bad). Well that is my opinion.

[@KaNoMikoProductions]

> They completely get Saber's character so wrong Nasu himself doesn't consider it canon. Nasu himself supervised the damn Fate/Zero LN, why the fuck would he not consider it canon?

[@joshs5577]

Queen Bitch KaNoMiko The biggest reason is because in the original visual novel Saber is said to have completely dominated the 4th War which isn’t the case with Fate Zero. There are also other differences like Saber’s characterization as others have said that don’t agree with what’s shown in Zero

[@lpfan4491]

The issue is that the zero-anime is very much canon to stay night ubw anime and the heavens feel-movie trilogy. And those are what most people will watch.

[@dgmbomb]

@@lpfan4491 Unfortunately true yeah, and I do get not wanting to read the visual novel unless you have hours among hours of spare time it's likely not happening.

[@RhythmLP]

god I love you for this video

[@saint_lol]

Been a fate fan for couple years now and it is really good and has become one of my personal favorites

[@zaregoto6022]

Deen's F/SN adaptation is also good to start with. I'll fight anyone who say its trash cause I'm positive most people who say that are those that haven't read the VN

[@lpfan4491]

Issue is that it has a super slow burn. I think this video is wrong about zero needing the entire firsr half to get good, because I was hooked from episode 3 onwards. But Stay Night 06, despite being good, literally takes half of it's runtime to get started.

Happy holidays father. Thanks for the content dad.

[@Zayl1016]

I know this comment is way past the date of reading, but you should check out Kara no Kyoukai whenever you can. One of Ufotable's first works, and possibly the work that put them on the map. The characters are strange, confusing, but compelling. The story is strange, confusing, but compelling. The music and artstyle are masterpieces - it aired in 2007, but it would put a bunch of modern anime to shame with its art direction and technical style. Episode three has this POV shot where you're watching a lunging lady thrust a dagger at you but it's just... Magnificently done.

[@Zayl1016]

@Fred Duwe I agree completely. It is hands down my favorite anime. From story to music to characters to technical art style to creative art style. But I understand some people dislike its nonchronological and sometimes confusing story.

[@Setsunai_mo]

I watched a few years ago fate stay night and right after i watched fate zero and tbh i really enjoyed fate stay night more for some reason.

[@Jakeybakey]

That intro was “mmmm cheeseburger” tier of good

[@Hyperversum3]

Guys, let me make it easy for you. 0) Fate/Stay Night from Studio Deen. It's technically before UBW, but it isn't a good adaptation at all so skipping it is fine. 1) Unlimited Blade Works from Ufotable. Best starting point. 2) Heaven's Feel. 3 Films, the third story in the Stay Night original novel. 3) Fate/Zero. Prequel, written by another author on the plot defined by the original one. Repeat with me. IT'S A PREQUEL SO I DON'T WATCH IT BEFORE THE ORIGINAL UNLESS I AM DUMB DUMB. 4) Everything else, as they are spin-offs and the order doesn't mean shit. Really, it's this easy, follow the order of the original novels. Have fun guys.

[@eshavolo3030]

Hyperversum Isn’t a prequel ... supposed to be watched first?

[@Hyperversum3]

@@eshavolo3030 Nope, why should it? It's a prequel. A prequel is set before, but was produced after. A prequel explores the background of the original and expands some things and explains others. As a natural result, watching prequels before spoils things. Prequels of Star Wars before the original? We already know who Darth Vader is, the fact that Luke e Leia are siblings, the relationship between Vader and Obi Wan and so on. The Godfather part 2 is both a prequel and a sequel, expanding on the story of the original characters. Fate Zero spoils a loooooooot of things. Who Kirei is and how he fits into the Holy Grail War, the nature of the Grail itself, if the Grail can work for real or not, the background of Sakura and how she is connected to the Tohsaka family, the true nature of Kiritsugu "heroism" and so on.

[@FWCrash]

Hyperversum couldnt have said it any better. I cant believe how much zero spoils in the first 3 episodes lmao. Instarted with ubw, then 2006 and now im on heavens feel waiting for the third movie. I started zero now while waiting and am on episode 5. Glad i did it in this order, and by accident too haha

[@Hyperversum3]

@@FWCrash And those are just those regarding the main cast, I could go on for a lot. Why Shirou survived the "fire" which is also why he can tank so many wounds and recover so easily, what that "fire" was to begin with, the identity of Saber (which is a bit of a plot point in the Fate route, even if it is discovered early), the fact that Gilgamesh is still around, the true purpose of the War, who Illya actually is... No fucking wonder that some people didn't appreciate UBW so much after Zero.

[@FWCrash]

Hyperversum precisely. There were subtle small hints here and there about many of these things, but you wont have concrete evidence if you didnt watch all 3 main routes. Archer calling illyasviel just „illya“ or swithing from rin to „tohsaka“ before he died were all hints in 2006, but it was never stated who he actually was. His real identity and purpose is explained in ubw.

[@bub244]

fate stay night(the studio dean version) was my first ever anime. Very much liked it. decided to watch fate/zero with the friend who recommended stay/night and the me from 2013 was glued to the screen. We watched the whole thing in one sitting because we just couldn't stop. I've never been so captivated by something for so long in my entire life and it ruined anime for me because nothing will ever live up to that experience but whatever it was worth it... good video my dude and i will try to let u know if the fate series ever animates a car that doesn't look like doodoo blocks.
