Look it's a TV Special. It's practically the prologue for the upcoming Fate Strange Fake Anime Series. Episode 0 we can say.
Let's not expect much of a conclusion from this. Was it good? Yes, it did its job introducing the Servants, Masters and our Boy Gilgamesh.
Storywise, I'd say it did a very interesting take on the Holy grail war, a war based in AMERICA? Why has this not been done before?? I think it was a great introduction for the characters, obviously not a lot shown, understandable given its very limited runtime but its enough. And the voice acting is AMAZING. But easily
...
the best part for is the Animation, so many different animation styles, which reminded me of Apocrypha (just without the stillshots), honestly MOVIE level animation. A-1 really did good work with this.
Story 8/10 (understandable, we barely know anything, doesn't mean its bad. We must simply wait for the Series to begin)
Animation/Art (10/10) A-1 put in their A team (heh) into this. Beautiful all around, especially during that fight scene. the BACKGROUNDS my god, breathtaking.
Music (8/10) not a lot of soundtracks shown, but for what its worth, they were pretty good. Rap during the Enkidu vs Gilgamesh fight is an interesting choice.
Characters (10/10), all the characters I got shown seemed so interesting to me. Jack the ripper is a really interesting take from the Legend, and the blonde MC is surprisingly very likable. Cant comment too much without spoiling, but the characters felt really great, and I was never bored or annoyed by a character being shown onscreen.
If I were to put score this as a Prologue episode, which it is. And how well it did it job as a prologue I would give it a 9.
Im extremely excited for the series. Until next time
