Can you guys recommend me something to watch.

Im really craving some fate-like experience. I've never seen any of the kara no kyoukai works, and have been heavily favoring starting there. :o

Read Tsukihime manga, watch Kara no Kyoukai, I guess.
I can't really think of anything particularly like Fate, though, unless we count alternate Fate things like Apocrypha and whatnot.

Tsukihime MANGA(or VN)
Kara no Kyoukai movies.
Prisma Illya(literally the only good FSN adaptation right now)

Otherwise there's not much in anime medium that is like Fate.

Well if you're up to the VN, it's the better experience.

Kara no Kyoukai fits the last part. You mean only like Fate, or in general?

Yeah, Prillya kind of expects you to know all of FSN VN as well as Fate Zero(so you could make a guess what went different here).

2wei has two characters from Fate/Hollow Ataraxia but they are contextualized enough to enjoy withou tit.

cuz movie 2 part 1 , yet movie 7 is part 2 of that segment.

not sure about other fate like works but i did make a thread with a list of type-moon works if your interested.

if your talking about to watch well...you could always watch the masterpiece by JC staff. it's dark and mature and looks to be the only adaptation from type moon that could actually maturely handle a sex scene.....

Not at all.

Hunter Exam: game dynamics and puzzles.
Heavens Arena: tournament shounen but executed differently - mostly a worldbuilding arc where the mains get their asses handed to them. Lots of strategic fights too.
Yorknew: Crime Thriller
Greed Island: like Hunter Exam
Chimera Ant: self explanatory, war drama/spy thriller.. and heavier content than most seinen manga let alone shounen.
Election: political machinations and a personal family story.

Still a shonen with somewhat typical protag. (Claymore is also Shonen)

THe world setting IS different and darker but themes explored? notreally.

I see you only saw the '99 anime, you should check out Chimera Ant sometime since it defines HxH and takes up most of the series. It's a masterpiece and one of the most ambitious anime arcs - thematically it's about human nature, identity, and loyalty.

Chimera Ant brings HxH from "well-written shounen" to "masterpiece that elevates its entire genre". Also Gon isn't typical at all, though I can see why it seems that way before CA brings his flaws to light.
