They all have distinct traits, they all have particular looks, they all have background, objective and dept, but the problem is most of the time this is all crammed up so much it end up not living to the expectations. The action can carry itself pretty well due to the beautiful visuals and the drama focus on the “sacrifice” aspect most shounens drag from so no biggie, but the romantic relationships between Shirou and Saber are awkward to say the least, and his relation with Rin and Sakura are simply “deleted” from the plot halfway through for no apparent reason!Īll the characters are well made. If I had to pinpoint what areas suffered more I would have to say the romance. Overall the story is nice and has a tremendous amount of care to it, sadly the director didn`t have time to fulfill all he had in mind and it suffers a lot from it. This gets the most aggravating when we deal with relationships between characters, but I will write about that on the latter topic. It is aggravating that some important stuff that happens later on have to rely on quick flashbacks to pack any meaning and even then the results are quite bad. The arc`s are well staged, but again the lack of proper treating and over ambitious director leave us with some problems. Terms they use all the time never get explained and this gets in the way of understanding stuff every now and then, it’s quite annoying and you have to put up some effort to understand stuff based solo on the sentence context.
#FATE STAY NIGHT CROSSOVER MANUAL#
More than once I felt like I needed a manual to watch the show and it wasn`t included. This show reeks ambition so much it ended up being smacked down by the usual budget / time frame reality, and this is the part where we feel it the worse. The voice acting is also pretty well done, and I would like to add a special note that the English and German segments are amongst the best I have ever seen in an anime (as cheesy as they might be). They do come off occasionally on the wrong scenes but for the most of the time they are spot on.Īside the soundtrack, the sound effects are also ok and fit the scenes they take part into. The songs are catchy in their own merits and somewhat memorable. I`ve tried my best to find issues with the sound, but to put it simple it’s not bad at all! This show is definitely worth HD (I got the THORA release) and I wouldn`t settle for anything lower then 720p, it really deserves it. everything clicks beautifully, but what really shines are the character designs and the color employed on the scenes. The backgrounds, the CGI, the still animations, the fight sequences. can get remotely close to it, and even for today standard’s it is top notch, specially on the color pallet department. If you take into account it’s from 2006 it gets even better, surely nothing that year I will try my best to refrain myself from spoilers, but rest assured, some will exist SO if you didn`t watch it yet you are better jumping straight to my conclusion. I will refrain myself from commenting on the show before I give my view on specific issues. Just finished this show a couple of moments ago, the hype I got before watching this was IMENSE, but after sitting trough it all I can definitely see where it comes from. Will the boy become a hero like his foster father, or die trying? The two must now participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War, a battle royale of seven Servants and the mages who summoned them, with the grand prize being none other than the omnipotent Holy Grail itself.įate/stay night follows Shirou as he struggles to find the fine line between a hero and a killer, his ideals clashing with the harsh reality around him. In desperation, Shirou summons a Servant of his own, a knight named Saber. Miraculously, he survives, but the same Servant returns to finish what he started. During his attempt to escape, the boy is caught by one of the Servants and receives a life-threatening injury. One night, years after Kiritsugu's death, Shirou is cleaning at school, when he finds himself caught in the middle of a deadly encounter between two superhumans known as Servants. After a mysterious inferno kills his family, Shirou is saved and adopted by Kiritsugu Emiya, who teaches him the ways of magic and justice.
