Every anime sin is committed here in a show that feels like it was Frankensteined together out of everything kids in the early 2000s said they liked about anime.
A Certain Magical Index
Fate/Stay Night
Definitely not a good show to have be your introduction to the Fate universe, even though it does do decent world-building. The music isn’t bad though, and if you like Fate and have seen the other adaptations, it won’t be a total waste of time.
The Ancient Magus’ Bride
Traditional Fantasy meets the emotions of Jane Eyre in a beautiful and touching way.
Fate/Stay Night: Heaven’s Feel II. Lost Butterfly
An emotionally brutal piece, this is the best installment in the Fate franchise yet.
Saga of Tanya the Evil: The Movie
Everything good from the series and then some. Better pacing, better action, more of the introspection and question asking.
Saga of Tanya the Evil (Youjo Senki)
Stellar military piece with fascinating philosophical aspects. Makes you inspect your stance on national policy, patriotism, war, social Darwinism, and capitalism.
Fate/Extra – Last Encore
Monogatari-style plot, Fate functionality, and Final Fantasy-type Final Boss. Kind of a chore to watch.
Fate/Apocrypha
Better, richer, dialogue than in UBW, much more of a Fantasy feel than previous Fate installments, but a solid piece with some outstanding artistic, bone-chilling, and emotional moments.
Fate/Grand Order: -First Order-
If you haven't played the game you likely will not enjoy this. I didn't. Even after having played the game it's still pretty empty.
Fate/Stay Night: Heaven’s Feel I. Presage Flower
A great start to the best arc of the Fate/Stay Night series. A masterful feat of animation.
