I’ve watched the Fate series in this order: Stay Night → UBW → HF → Zero → Road. What should I watch next? I want to watch everything in chronological order, including spin-offs. They all seem really interesting!
Exploring the Fate Universe: A Journey Through Time and Tales
Hey there!
So, I recently came across a question that took me down memory lane. A fellow anime enthusiast was asking about the best way to dive into the Fate series after watching the iconic Stay Night, UBW, HF, Zero, and Road. Ah, the excitement of exploring such a rich universe! When I first started my journey through the Fate series, I had a slightly different order, but I can totally relate to how overwhelming it can be to figure out where to go next. It’s like being at a buffet with all these delicious options, and you’re just standing there, paralyzed by choice. One suggestion that popped up was to watch Fate/Apocrypha next. I remember when I first watched it – the vibrant characters, the unique take on the Holy Grail War—it was a wild ride! There’s something so captivating about seeing different interpretations of the same world, and Apocrypha definitely delivers on that front. And let’s not forget about Fate/Extra Last Encore! Now, that one is a tear-jerker if you know the backstory from the games. I still remember my first time watching it; I was snacking on some chips, and by the end, I was fighting back tears with one hand while trying to make sure I didn’t spill crumbs all over the couch. Funny how a seemingly silly anime can hit you right in the feels, right? As for the spin-offs, the mention of Fate/Grand Order is spot on! I mean, who wouldn’t want to summon a bunch of legendary heroes for a grand adventure? I remember being so engrossed in the mobile game that I lost track of time. I’d sit down for “just a quick session” and before I knew it, hours had passed, and I was still there, glued to my screen, probably munching on way too many snacks. It’s also interesting how Fate/Extra and its sequels connect back to the main series through the genius of Kinoko Nasu. I had to pinch myself when I realized how deep the lore goes, with all these parallel worlds and timelines. It’s like a puzzle that keeps expanding, and every piece you find just adds more depth to the story. I mean, who knew a simple anime about summoning heroes could lead to such an intricate universe? If you’re feeling adventurous, definitely keep an eye out for the upcoming series like Strange Fake. You never know when a new gem will pop up that might just become your next favorite! So, if you’re planning to dive deeper into the Fate series, grab some snacks, get comfy, and prepare for an emotional rollercoaster. And hey, if you have your own recommendations or funny experiences while watching, I’d love to hear them! Share your thoughts in the comments—we’re all in this anime journey together!
