In the third volume of Carnival Phantasm, a 12 min long anime "Fate/ Prototype", a prototype of Fate/stay night, was released as an extra. Fate/ Prototype was written by Nasu Kinoko when he was a high school student.

Screenshots of Fate/Prototype (via a private blog)

Cast
Saber: Sakurai Takahiro
Saber's master, Sajyo Ayaka: Hanazawa Kana
Archer: Nakamura Yuichi
Lancer's master, Reirokan Misaya: Saito Chiwa

In the prototype, Saber is male and his master is a girl.

There's a reason why those prototypes took so long to be animated. A good reason.

And shouldn't he be studying in high school?

Interesting. Will definitely watch, though I wish they would spend this time/money making CP even funnier and less chock-full of throwaway gags.

Since I learned of the existence of Fate/Prototype I have been somewhat saddened by the absence of its availability. Now for the first time we'll get to see what it's worth!

More love-comedy is good.

And yeah, genderbent Saber lol. IMHO, if this would become a spin off, this will suck big time . It will lose it's uniqueness.

There is no Shirou. The main protagonist of the original Fate/stay night draft is a girl named Ayaka who's more like Rin.

Male saber looks cooler than normal saber o_o. Maybe it's becuase the bulky armor fits him more.

I've always wondered what it would be like if things had turned out like this originally. But, at the end of the day I'm completely happy with how the Visual novel turned out but, still, this could be somewhat interesting.

I remember reading that original Saber is supposed to have a personality similar to F/SN Archer. I'd love to see that combined with Saber's backstory. Speaking of which, I wasn't surprised when I heard Saber was originally a male. Her entire story basically revolved around her kingship and her true gender wasn't of great importance, which makes sense if her past was basically copy pasted from male Saber's.

Okay, I admit I'm totally biased for his design as well. They should have kept this design instead of the new Prototype one

Fate Zero+S2 with male Saber won't make a story. (Red Saber would do)
Being genderbent is enough for this spinoff/adaptation.

I beg to differ. He would do fine if not better in Fate/Zero scenario.

More Fate is welcome. Although I'm used to Saber being a cute, beautiful woman, I don't mind the male version (hence "prototype") since King Arthur IS a guy. As long as Saber is still cool, that's all that matters to me.

That would been priceless. Specially the last issue with Nero, Gil hitting on her (before Caren strikes again), then Arthuria and Nero team up to fight the Antagonists.

You know it would be ironic if Saber had to deal with the LANCELOT DILEMMA with Iri. For irony.

Although no one is stopping her as a girl, though. ;P

I don't think her gender would change Arthur's wish, you need to tweak some stuff, but you can make it work. Maybe instead of feeling 'inferior' because she was a 'girl', was because he tried to live up to the ideal and it fell apart.

Like, you know, most Arthurian legends had it. Nudge.
