We are currently showing two anime in the Fate anime series this season. One is the intense SHAFT romance Fate/Extra Late Encore, and the other is the monthly slice -of-life cooking spinoff (yes you did read that right) Today’s Meal for the Emiya Family. Many people are huge fans of Fate. However, I’m certain there are many others that are not familiar with the series. This is a brief overview on FATE and all the TV anime from the franchise. I’ll also tell you which order they should be viewed!

What is theFateAre series possible?
2004 TYPE MOONMade its commercial debut with the R-18 PC visual novelsFate/stay night. It was the beginning of theFateseries. A visual novel is a computer-based game that uses text to display the text on the screen. The visual aspect refers to the fact that characters and background images are displayed on the screen. Sometimes, voice acting is even possible. Many visual novels let you make certain choices, and the game might progress differently depending on what choices you make.Fate/stay the nightThere are three main routes, one for each heroine. The original’s three main routesFate/stay the nightThese are the guidelines:

A Fierce Battle for the Holy Grail
A tying thing that almost all works in theFateThe battle royale known as series together isThe Holy Grail War. The Holy Grail refers to an omnipotent existence capable of grant all wishes and is the subject matter of war. The Holy Grail Wars typically revolve around seven.MastersChosen by The Holy Grail & the SevenServantsThey summon. Each Servant has a vocation.Heroic SpiritThey are often based upon historical or mythical figures like King Arthur, Hercules, William Shakespeare or William Shakespeare. But, the name of their class is used instead.
There are seven classes that make up the Servants. One Master is able to contract one Servant and the battle goes on.
Because most of the works in Fate revolve around wars, there is constant conflict and discord.
What is so wonderful about theFateDo you have a series?
It is a battle between people fighting for their beliefs. It requires perseverance.
Because they have a wish, each master who is a soldier in war fights for it. Shirou Emiya, the protagonist in Fate/stay late is an honest boy that wants to help a lot. However, masters trying to defeat the others also wish; a wish that is so strong they are willing to sacrifice their lives for it. Shirou is often manipulated by other people’s wishes or obstacles. There is no happily-ever-after for them. The faith they display in their struggle is admirable, even if it is selfish or evil.
A highlight is also the battle action scenes. The battle action scenes of the Servants are also noteworthy. Noble Phantasms(written with ‘Treasures’ in kanji They can include anything from spears to swords. But the weapon will be different if the servant is involved. The camera moves with the characters and makes it feel as if they are fighting alongside them.
(Note the recent spin-off Prisma Illya. This is a magical new addition to Fate’s franchise.

You should also pay attention to the connection between Master and servant. There are many types of relationships. It is interesting to look at each one and determine if it’s a relationship that can be used or not.
Gen Urobuchi plays a major role in the Fate series. He was the author of Fate/Zero light novels that act as a prequel and continuation to Fate/stay overnight. __S.94__ Gen Urobuchi is best known for his Puella Magi Madoka Magica series and PSYCHO PASS, among many other works. I won’t spoil any of those series but if your familiar with them then you will understand what I mean when I tell you what kinda touch he brings to the Fate universe.

Spin-Off Series
There are also series that take a different approach to genres.
These are side stories, for example, by Silver Link animation studio:
TV animePrisma Illya/Fate/kaleid liner(2013)
TV animePrisma Illya 2wei, Fate/kaleid liner(2014)
TV animeFate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya 2wei Herz!(2015)
TV animationPrisma Illya 3rei, Fate/kaleidliner !(2016)
MovieFate/kaleidliner Prisma Illya. Oath Under Snow(2017)
Based on Hiroshi Hiyama’s manga series about magical girls, is an adaptation of that manga series
The following anime is also available, which airs every month:
Web animeToday’s Emiya Family menu
Based on a slice-of life cooking manga featuring Fate/stay Night character, written and directed by Makoto Tadano. The animation is by ufotable.
This animation is a bit different from the rest of the animated series. It doesn’t even focus on Holy Grail War. We follow Shirou, Saber, as well as other characters from Fate/Stay neart, as they share home-cooked meals. Each episode features a new recipe. Shirou makes it easy to understand. It is possible to have more fun with anime if your characters are familiar. However, the anime can still be enjoyed by those with no Fate but who are passionate about Japanese cooking.
Today’s Meal for Emiya Family wasn’t the first spin-off animation in the Death franchise. The OVAs of the animated Carnival Phantasm were released in 2011-2012. Carnival Phantasm, which focuses more on comedy, slapstick, and characters from Fate/Stay Night than other Type-Moon series, includes Tsukihime (a visual story that was released prior to Fate/Stay Night). I think this is more targeted at Type-Moon characters than newcomers.
Then, which order should you watch it in?
For the chronological order of works, it is: Fate/Zero Fate/stay in the night (including Unlimited Blade Works or Heaven’s Feel), Fate/EXTRA. However, they are not identical.
Here is my personal recommendation to anyone just starting to observe.
First time you see the TV anime fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works.
Then watch Fate/Zero
It doesn’t even matter afterwards! Death/Zero has been set 10 years earlier than Night/Holiday Night: Unlimited Blade Works. This is the reverse chronological order. But, it’s easier to understand the world’s rules by looking at it this way.
Fate/Grand Order First Order – requires more backtracking. The special broadcast was in 2016, and the prologue wasn’t adapted into an animation.
The side story, Prisma Illya, should be enjoyed as an entirely new work. It’s a totally different setting and pace so I recommend it should be watched after Unlimited Blade Works. __S.151__
The title list may seem complicated, but if we start with Unlimited Blade Works the world’s rules are much easier to comprehend.
If you would like to watch a series that is entirely self-contained, then you can check out the Fate/Apocrypha. __S.154__ But it might be difficult at first to comprehend what is happening. Therefore, if you plan on purchasing Fate/stay evening at some point, I recommend watching Unlimited Blade Works before Apocrypha. Fate is an established franchise that is loved by many hardcore fans. You can still jump in with the new alternate universe anime Fate/Apocrypha, or the currently-airing Fate/ Extra Last Enchant!
