    I'm watching Fate stag night remake. It's great so far. Should I watch Zero after this or the original?

    also its technically not a remake

    fate is originally a vn w three routes that have their own timelines

    you have fate/stay night, unlimited blade works & heavens feel

    the original anime is an adaption of the first route, UBW is obviously UBW

    heavens feel movie coming soon

    it just suffers from being a forced adaptation, stay/night was meant as a VN and doesnt rly translate well over to an anime medium. also shirou is disgusting.

    zero is adapted from a LN which is a lot easier

    ufotable did a great job of doing amazing visuals for UBW tho, and the soundtrack is p insane too. (but zero got ubw beat in those aspects too)

    Despite being almost entirely useless at both magic and combat he's a cocky arrogant f--- who ignores everything the infinitely more powerful and knowledgable Saber and Rin say to him because "muh ethics"

    Caslon is right that fate zero is probably the best out of the 3 (the magical girl spin off with ilya is obviously far superior to everything) but the og fsn isn't bad, just in comparison to the others.

    Also caslon half hates Shirou cos he's not a cute girl
