      Just start with Zero. It’s a prequel that lays out the narrative devices of the series while being a pretty neat story in itself.

        But after watching Zero anything else from Fate is just weird.

        Like adults murdering each other with magic and famous people makes some sort of sense. Kids doing that is just… stupid. I tried the Stay/Night, UBW many times, and it just doesn’t hit anywhere near as well as the Zero did.

        I’m just going to pleasure myself with this fish.

          To be fair, the Holy Grail War in Zero is the last one that was kind of played by the rules, and it never properly concludes.

          The events of the main routes all depict the fallout of the Holy Grail War going to complete shit, as it starts back up off-schedule.
