Fate Stay Night (FST from now on)
Just finished watching this 6 hours ago, can't actually recomend this to all anime collecttors out there, cuz I did'nt quite like it myself, but enough of that. I'll just go ahead and state what I saw and hold you guys to it(weather you watch it or not)
.
FST is a magical/action/romance genre that was before an RPG devised by Type Moon(Tsukihime). I've been hearing very good things about this game for a long time(coming from melty blood fans of course). What I mostly read that was so good about it was it's story(Type Moon is well known for this).
Ideed, FST has a good story(but I'm not gona spill any of it), with great sets of characters(the servants mainly). I think the main stars of this series are the servants and not the masters, as I feel more interested in them than the main characters themselves(the masters). The Art may seem simple but are well animated, in fact I liked some of the fight sequences, they did'nt skimp on frame counts here.
Saying all that I was wondering why I did'nt like it for some time now(about 6 hours). Well, the setting is so cliched, I mean "1 boy and far too many girls around him that eventually lives together with him, father died and alone in house with babes"(well it did came from an H game..). Music is so forgettable, the voices are OK but nothing special.
In conclusion many of the good things I said offset the bad things, and I know the bad things are passable by marathoners(those who watch whole series in one sitting). Finally, what made me say that I did't liked it was the fact that I felt uncompeled to watch the whole thing(perhaps it's my fault for having little time to watch) mainly because the main characters did'nt quite catch my interest(though there were some characters warant notice), as added fact, the main heroine is butched up(it did turned me off, thats why I mentioned it). I can recomend this to people that have'nt grown out of babe cliches or people who're ["who're" = "who are" I know some ppl may get the wrong idea] looking for a archtyped but nicely done story driven watch(I'm so getting hate letters for sayin all this :ph34r: )..

This is also a punishment for you.
You will be the defender of justice and wear a mask forever,
you won't be able to live as yourself.
You will sacrifice all your happiness for the world.. Eternally..
