New Fate/Stay Night Anime Announced!
« on: July 12, 2013, 05:02:42 PM »
And by ufotable, no less.

So far, only info we got is that it's a Fate anime. We still don't have confirmation on what it's going to be based on, or if it'll be an TV anime or a movie, or something else.

Most guesses so far point towards an HF adaptation. Here's hoping that comes true.  ;D

Well, that looks very interesting, although I really hope it's not another damn Fate remake. And, whilst I do suspect it will be HF (not least because that seems to be the opinion in Japan), I wouldn't rule out them re-doing Fate, since it's a new company, and the original version of Fate is a bit shit.

If it is Fate, though, then I will not be happy, unless they then proceed to announce a HF version later on.

Apparently there's something on 2chan about it possibly being all three. While I don't know if that information's trustworthy at all, if it means we're getting remakes of the first two routes plus Heaven's Feel, all as separate anime and without just smooshing them together, than I'm a happy camper. If it means they're just smooshing them together though...  >:(

Well, I would be astounded if they even attempt to produce a combination of all three routes. It just won't work.

Rejoice Sakura lovers! According to people who have watched the preview, it's pretty much confirmed to be Heaven's Feel.And it's by Ufotable so all the better

Well, I heard that the preview contained a mix of all three routes. So, it's possible they are actually going to do all three (hopefully not as a mix...). It's possible they'll do HF and try to put a bit of the plot from UBW and Fate in there, though, although honestly I expect that to go horribly wrong if they do try it.

I don't know about that, mixing UBW into HF could work, if done properly.

So far it sounds like they're going to be doing all three routes, which would be fantastic.  Fuck DEEN.

Yeah, that's the impression I was getting too. And honestly, that's about what I'm hoping for too. Especially given how UBW was butchered, I'd love to see all three routes done properly with UFOtable tier animation. Hopefully we get a confirmation of some kind pretty soon. :)

Well, the problem is that HF requires Archer and Shirou to be on the same side, whereas in UBW they have to fight each other. Plus, Saber disappears early on in HF, and Gil attacks and is eaten by Sakura (which is what sends her on her final rampage). So, I'm not sure how much of UBW would be left to fit into HF, aside from the bits that are already there (like Archer's identity and Rin's character development).

Also, Shirou's character development is somewhat different in the two routes, as is Rin's for that matter. UBW Shirou is a lot more idealistic and optimistic about his ideal, whereas HF Shirou runs straight into the issue of "saving one vs. saving many" and decides to protect the ones he loves above all else. They're not as different as some people make out, but Shirou's idealism vs. Archer's cynicism is part of the point of UBW, and I don't see how you could fit that into HF given what happens with Sakura.

Yeah, although I hope (without much expectation) that they do HF first.

When they asked Gen about any possible involvement he has with the new anime he basically said "I don't have any currently but when I was on there I heard something about a UBW anime."

While I'm more or less waiting for an official confirmation before I get truly hyped one way or another (even if the info's from Gen and he and Nasu are buddies and all that), I'd definitely be behind an UBW remake. :3 The Deen adaptation was horrendous, so it'd be nice to see it done some proper justice.

If they ignore HF again I am going to be seriously pissed off. I'm sick of Sakura fans always getting the short end of the stick (see Carnival Phantasm, for example or, indeed, Prisma Ilya). If they choose to ignore Sakura again and make another UBW anime I will be extremely annoyed.

It's mean to assume that the UBW movie counts as an anime adaptation of it though. : <

Plus it doesn't mean that they won't be adapting HF immediately afterwards. :) Besides, we need to wait for the official announcement to be sure.

It's more than HF has....

Well, yes, that is true, but it seems unlikely that they'd do UBW and HF but not Fate.

Yeah, definitely. It's quite possible that Urobuchi just doesn't have a clue....

Hmm, apparently the FSN anime is coming in 2014. http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2013/11/09-1/ufotable-fatestay-night-anime-announcement-finally-coming.

According to that article, fans (I assume they mean in Japan...) are speculating that their use of Saber to promote it means that they're doing Fate again. I am not convinced of that (they use Saber to promote everything), but if it's genuinely true, and if they're not going to follow it up with a UBW and HF anime, I am going to be seriously pissed-off.

I'm sick of Sakura always being ignored in fanfics, doujins etc., and of Saber always taking the limelight, and yet another Fate anime will only make that worse. Not to mention that it means no Sakura anime, again.
