Hello, I’ve watched all of the Fate/SN routes (haven’t gotten around to reading the VN yet) but I don’t want to watch the Tsukihime anime because i haven’t heard the best things about it. Can i watch this without knowing the characters or story of Tsukihime? I’ve heard lots of great things about this show so I really want to give it a try.

Considering it's also a parody of Tsukihime as well, I'd say you'd have to read Tsukihime first

I did watch this before watching tsukihime . I was confused for the tsukihime parts but found the fate parts really good. After reading tsukihime I find it funnier now so I'd reccomend reading tsukihime first

I enjoyed it a lot when I watched it, having not seen tsukihime first. You’d probably enjoy it more if you had read it, but it’s like 70% fate 30% Tsukihime so dw about it.

I think its overall fine, even if you didnt read tsukihime you gonna like those parts, and you can check online which episode are fate-only because they are great, if you dont want tsukihime spoilers

It's fine, you only wouldn't understand the parts that are from Tsukihime, but they are not that much. And even not understand you would still find funny, and I think this is the purpose of the show 😋

You only need main fate lore (like stay night) and tsukihime you might also need to know Melty blood

If you don’t wanna watch the tsukihime anime then read the VN, that’s exactly what I’m doing rn so I can watch this show🤣 “there isn’t a tsukihime anime”😉

Without seeing Tsukihime most of the jokes make 0 sense.

Watching/Reading Tsukihime would make you like it more
But it doesnt matter

You can just skip tsukihime parts and watch fate ones you will not lose anything

You do need to read Tsukihime to understand most of Carnival Phantasm. In fact, to get the whole picture, you kind of need to go through all of Type-Moon's works before CP, otherwise you'd be lost as to who Hibiki, Chika, Riesbyfe, Sion and everyone who cameos in the ending are.
Well I for one already loved Lain.
