  Well I'll say this about Fate/Zero I'm almost done with season 2 and it's already brought me to tears. the story is amazing and extremely touching. A couple of the main characters have extremely tragic and touching back-stories where you can't help but sympathize with them and why they do the actions they do.

  
  
  Fate/Zero is better than Fate/Stay Night in my opinion. But I love Tsukihime. One weird thing about the writing of Fate/Zero though is that killing female characters is constantly used to make us feel sorry for male ones. Kind of bothers me after having it pointed out.
  
  Considering the whole "Holy Grail War" theme of FSN though, if they tried they could make a really fun event!

  Guys, I doubt we're going to get new combat skills due to an anime crossover.

  Technically that's an action, located in the action tab.

  Just finished Fate/Zero
  
  [spoiler=""]
  What a terribly sad ending. There was nothing happy or good about that outcome. All that despair and heartbreak for nothing.
  [/spoiler]
  
  I guess it's on to Fate/Stay Night then.

  Right off the bat Stay Night is pissing me off with how naive the main character is.
  
  [spoiler=""]
  Then again Rin is just a little girl, it's to be expected her goal would be so naive as to simply "win". However, I do have to wonder how long her naive attitude will stay before the reality of the grail wars set in. I suppose I should keep going and see what other characters from the Fate/Zero fall into it. I have a feeling that Shiro and Sakura will become Masters
  [/spoiler]
  
  Well I guess that was Episode 0 but 13 minutes in on Episode 1 and I'm already uttering WTF and making O_O faces at this. *sigh* I'm really going to hate this, but still I must at least try and get through it so I can understand what kind of content devcat may throw at us with this.
  
  Well I made it to the end of Episode 1. The random twist at the end has pleased me enough to continue. My my the threads of fate can be quite cruel and amusing.
  
  [spoiler=""]
  Saber ending up in the hands of the boy that Kiritsugu saved who also had Saber. That's what I call a twist of fate. I do want to see more Giglamesh and Kirei as they were the most interesting characters in Fate/Zero
  [/spoiler]

  Right now my interest is in the following characters:
  
  [spoiler=""]
  

  
  
  • Illya and her desire of revenge against Kiritsugu
    
  • Link between Archer and Shirou
    
  • Kirei and Gilgamesh
    
  • Caster
    

  
  [/spoiler]
  
  I hope I get to see more of these characters soon as they interest me the most.

  OMFG.
  I'd come back to Mabi for this. If it ever comes to NA that is.

  Well I got as far as I can go in the anime it seems. I wasn't aware that this was still an ongoing anime when I started. Seeing that this crossover entails the anime and not the games itself, I believe I have enough knowledge now to be adequately familiar with the crossover and what I might expect.
  
  It's a really depressing series but the Lancer character in Unlimited Blade Works seems like the perfect contender to do lots of crossover work with due to his ties to celtic mythology.
  
  There's for sure room for archery, magic, alchemy, and melee items from this crossover. Anyways I look forward to it and will keep you guys posted with any info we find about it.

  Being lancer is suffering. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets ordered to kill himself in this crossover.
  
  I'm suspecting that Caster or Rin will be a 2nd title that surpasses ALO Asuna.

  This might explain a rare sighting I had earlier.
  Too bad I didn't remember to track.
