Btw, anyone knows what is the name of the opening song? Or where I can get the full version? The opening song is "Ideal White" by Mashiro Ayano. I don't believe the full version is released yet. Origato

And episode 2 came out... Thoughts? For the purposes of this thread assume that three things are universally true in each episode unless I say they aren't: 1. That this animation is 10 times better than Deens. 2. That Kotomine Kirei's voice is one of the sexiest of all time. 3. That Saber's Scarf deserves it's own spin-off anime. Not really much to say, this episode was almost entirely devoted to explaining the basic concepts of servants and the Holy Grail War. As I don't think any of us are Fate/Stay Night n00bs, it's fair to say we likely didn't get much out of it. I was more than a bit disappointed that we didn't even see a single fight this episode. I was entirely expecting us to see the Archer + Saber VS Berserker fight by now, so it was more than a bit unsatisfying to see the episode end right before it.

Well, at least we know what we are going to get in the next episode.

Well, Episode 3 is out and I've just finished watching it. *Insert Compliments on the Battle Choreographing and Idolization of Saber's Scarf Here* Not much else to say here, considering this episode was one long fight scene. I do want to kill whoever at Horrible Subs thinks "Mister" is a proper translation for "Onii-chan" but that has nothing to do with the episode itself. We do finally see some content that vaguely branches off from the original story, namely Rin attempting to battle Illya (and getting her ass horrible kicked because there's no was to win against that kind of magical energy). My memory of the Light Novel may be a bit fuzzy, but I'm pretty sure neither Rin nor Shirou thought about trying to take out Illya because neither of them wanted to kill Masters. I'm thinking UFOtable wanted to show of Irisviel's snazzy mysteries from Fate/Zero as a callback to make the fans go "ZOMG. Illyasviel is using the same mysteries as her mother! It's almost like Fate/Zero is actually a prequel or something!" Also Of course Gilgamesh is going to rip Illyasviel's heart out, Illya's heart being needed for the Grail is a central plot point. And it's also needed as a framing device for the whole "Your Distortion" scene that comes immediately after it. And that scene is one of the most important in the series.

Indeed, it seems they took some liberties, like Saber using her Noble Phantasm and Shirou vomiting blood. (Or maybe that happened in the VN and I don't remember) Although, there is something that may bother some people that didn't read the VN: "Why didn't Archer kill Ilya?" Yeah I know and I was already expecting it, thing is, that scene is not pleasant to watch or read.

Btw, anyone knows what is the name of the opening song? Or where I can get the full version? If you're still interested in picking up Ideal White you can pick it up here: tindeck.com/listen/ovtnGuy Who Does The Public Away!

Is it just me, or am not the only one who gets hungry after watching an episode?

So in the next episode, if they follow the VN 100%, things are going to get very "graphical"... Thoughts?

All that should be happening next is the brief "fight" (more like one-sided slaughter) between Shirou and Rin as well as Rider's brief appearance. Unless I'm forgetting something? Which I very well could be.

I'm still a failure as a Fate/Stay Night fan apparently. Indeed, the Archer Vs. Caster and Saber Vs. Assassin fights should be next. Both are ones I'm heavily looking forward to. Both are ones that were heavily butchered by Deen (more than usual even).
