yep just watched the mid-long version and I'm still confused as hell
@@infiniteearth6996 I really want to experience it thoroughly 😭😭 someone help meeeeee
@@LadderVictims don't even try. I just watched whatever the fuck i wanted, I abandoned the timeline and the stupid plots that were supposedly connected through each adaptations of the fate series. I just enjoyed seeing some op ass servants throwing nuclear bombs at each others. Fate apocrypha in my opinion had the best fights, the ending fights were fucking amazing.

There's no way that's canon ...
Oh it's canon alright.
Worst part is that it's not even that weirdly convoluted compared to the stories these characters come from.

Fate stay night UBW (series)
Fate Heaven's Feel movies

I'm not saying this is the best order it's just the one I followed
Its not as bad as trying to understand the World of darkness universe, Which I really wish could get some anime's about it.
>Deen's Fate before Zero or UBW
I'm proud of You son, because that way You'll get the feel of 2006 style VN adaptation
Ahaha I just did the same. Though I'm still far from finishing, I'm just in the middle of Apocrypha et staretd playing FGO a few days ago X) But yeah, that now makes so much sense
Fate is one of the few franchises that puts Kingdom Hearts lore to shame.
Not really. He makes a joke out of it, but it really is easy to understand if you start with the VN, or skip the Fate route entirely and start with the UBW anime, then go into the HF movies, then Fate/ Zero. Literally everything else is either secondary stuff, or alternate universes.
@@ecanoya this. Even hollow ataraxia in my opinion is kinda jump-the-sharkey with its out of place slice of life scenes. F/SN and F/Z are really the meat of the lore and it's totally fine to stop after these two.
@@EvilSapphireR You mean I just need the og visual novel and the Zero light novel and I'll be good enough? SOLD! DONE! CUT, PRINT, CHECK THE GATE!

im trying to watch it and imma just follow your guide
thank you
@Steven Line It's not confusing as much to be honest , Fate series only have alternate timeline , you will understand relatively everything when you know how those alternate routes and universes work , and the series is not even related to its other parts
While in Monogatari , you have to actually put the arcs into its place to figure out the timeline , and sometimes it's pretty hard to identify where an arc belongs to

MD Raj
The absolute BEST way to start the Fate series, is the visual novel, but if you dont have time to do so, the next best thing to start with is Fate/Zero,
(also I heard that the heaven’s feels movies are a great way to start Fate, but idk about that)
Instructions unclear, started with Carnival Phantasm
I did this and regret nothing
i only watched Carnival Phantasm couple years back. ^^
I see this as an absolute win!

so whos here after the trashtaste video about the producer
You know, I'm not surprised Gigguk is into Fate given that it's just one big *TOURNAMENT ARC*

@@arcain2236 Short version: Watch Fate/Zero then Fate/Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works (flip this order if enough people yell at you to do so). Then you can watch anything else Fate. Not all of it will make sense, but you can't fix that without getting into non-anime media.

@@Niiue Fate\Zero > Unlimited Blade Works/FSN 2006/Heaven's Feel (Pick one) > Everything else
(I recommend you to watch UBW first because FSN 2006 is a badly animated ugly shit and Heaven's Feel is unfinished)
READ THE F*CKING VISUAL NOVEL
@@readmuvluv I would definitely recommend against watching Heaven's Feel before Unlimited Blade Works even after it finishes. Heaven's Feel has an entire scene in the first movie that it just skips over because it assumes you saw Unlimited Blade Works.
Me: So...... how do I exactly start off watching this?
Fate: Yes
Your profile picture matches your comment
Start with fate/stay night, the 2006 (i think that's the year?) version, where the 'people die if they are killed' meme originates from. Then watch Fate/kaleid liner prisma illya (and all ovas and specials and the Fate/kaleid liner prisma illya movie, 'oath under snow' BUT the movie is a prequel and it must be watched only after you see the first 4 seasons of fate/kaleid -they only have like 10 episodes each it wont take long- ). Then after that go for fate unlimited blade works, season one and two, then do fate/zero. Then the two heavens feels movies (theres gonna be 3 but only 2 are out right now) and then uhhhh dosnt matter what order you watch the rest in.
I just strongly advise watching the old fate/stay night version as your first one, cause it gets you introduced to how things work and stuff very nicely.
@@illyachan5901 but like he said, the original one isn't good..
@@isa2758 true, true. But every once in a while ita nice to switch up your anime viewing pallet and watch something super old and or bad! It makes you appreciate how far we've come. Gone are the days of yellow subtitles, watching dubbed anime in 3 parts per episode on TH-cam with Spanish subs. Now are the days of bad experimental CG and traps galore!!
Illya chan hey wow, thanks! I‘m going to follow your advice, my brain literally hurts because of the video lmao
I was out of the anime zone for about...10+ years. One year ago I watched this video and I took the advice: I've read the visual novel. And I fell in love in the story and in the soundtrack. Then I watched Fate/Zero. I didn't know I could fall even harder, but I did. It's SO good. Since then I've watched most (I guess) Fate's. Then I started some other popular series (Attack on Titan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Demon Slayer and some others)... and I can't get out of this rabbit hole. You did this to me, Gigguk. I'm obsessed now. Thanks to you, I've found joy during this shitty last year.

@@Iamhere1223 don't worry, all he says will make sense.
I'm into Fate almost since the beginning(like 2006 or 2007) and after all these years I came to the conclusion that only Fate/zero is a true masterpiece. Original VN and Carnival Phantasm are also great but they like one step down. Everything else is optional.
It's not so complicated though. Memes aside, just read fsn, then watch zero and after that whatever the fuck

Monogatari: if you’re lost, watch release order. It’ll make the most sense.
Fate: *screams of the damned
You mean the chronological order? The release order jumps all over the place, and while I had fun placing all the pieces together, I feel the chronological order would make the most sense for a complete new comer. Or maybe skipping Kizu movies and going straight to neko monogatari black and continuing from there. I feel Kizu is made more for the fans than new comers, as it isn't super great as far as intros go.
@@TheCalmPsycho no, going with chronological order during first view 1) it's a pain in the ass going through all the different parts and 2) all the mystery is lost. There's as reason why the arcs were released in that order. Chronological order should be advised for re-watching.
Regarding Kizu, even if it is the first part chronologically speaking, it wasn't supposed to be the intro. The intro to the series is, of course, Bakemonogatari.
@@shadowomegax hey I just started watching the fate series and I finished fate stay night(2005) and am watching fate zero and plan to watch unlimited blade works after. How many fate series are there? I don’t wanna read the manga just how many fate shows are there? And any tips in order I should watch them?
@@jayvonpryor1956 watch zero last, since you’ve already watched deen’s stay night. Watch UBW and heavens feel before you watch zero.
@@jayvonpryor1956 You're going in the right order so far with Stay Night -> Zero -> UBW. After that you might want to watch the Heaven's Feel movie trilogy, and then there is Apocrypha and Extra Last Encore. Apocrypha is the better of the two. After that, I think Prisma Illya is the only other Fate anime that is currently out.
Fate fans: we have a very complex timeline
Fire emblem fans: at least you have a damn timeline
none of the games are connected though
PossiblyTsundere ye they are
@@FangZ_07 well yes, thats true, but unlike Fate you don't have to start with a specific entry, as none of the stories are directly connected outside of direct sequels
Deeprealms are pretty much the only connection, with some exceptions, and are not talked about much outside of DLC.
FE1 to FE3 take place in order of release date, FE4 is seperate and FE5 takes place during the latter half of FE4. Naga is related to the Backstory of those two games somehow.
FE7 is the prequel to FE6 and FE8 is seperate from all other games.
FE9 and FE10 take place in release order.
FE13 takes place after FE1-5 and FE9-10.
Fates was a mistake and just tries to fumble it's way through "but muh multiverse" and seemingly takes place before FE13.
Outside of the two 3DS games that's a pretty solid timeline.

You guys can watch fate in this order:
1. Fate/Zero
2. Fate/Stay night
3. Fate/Stay night: Unlimited blade works
4. Fate/Stay night: Heaven’s Feel
After these you can watch the rest however you want since they are all spinoffs and they don’t directly affect the main story.

Oh no, if you understand half you're pretty much caught up to the rest of us. I'm not sure Nasu fully understands his own lore at this point.
tbf it's stops being AS complicated once you stop thinking about the spinoffs and just focus on the stay night routes. Can't wait until UFO Table adapts the sequel
The OG Fate/Stay Night were just 3 separate timelines (not including the ones leading to the bad endings) that branched off from a single starting point. This concept is why the Fate Multiverse exists and why the spinoffs can be considered their own closed off stories. How is that complicated?
@Tigger Suthinand I'd actually say Apocrypha is a good anime. It's just not a great anime and that's the issue when you compare it to UBW or Zero, which are really great. As itself, Apocrypha did a whole lot good and was a fun ride that I've honestly found myself revisiting the most of the Fate.
The funny thing is I know all the of the lore, but have no clue what the hell anybody's talking about as far as alternative universe's are concerned.

You are talking about Fate Kaleid Prisma Illya, not the entire fate series
i saw it because after seeing illya's death in ubw i needed to see her being happy
Yeah, her death in UBW was terrible!
Fate is basically what happens when you have a ton of good ideas and try to align them all to create some sort of plot
And it turns out good (financially)
@@ruiK774 and story wise
Yeah and it turns out like hot garbage
You got baited
I actually like fate cuz it just helps me not think of "what if this happened?!" Late at night so I just watch more fate anime
Everything is great... Only if you have the brain power to process it
*Who got this recommended to them after watching his long version of the fate timeline ?*
Same here
Yes
It's also the short version lmao
*me* ✋😂
You mean the long short version?
Instructions unclear, started with Nisemonogatari
Edit: Don’t worry guys I obviously started with Bakemonogatari, because Senjougahara is best girl.
No *bakemonogatari* first # SenjougaharaRules
That's a massive L
Men of culture start with Kizumonogatari
@@MikuOlliet yes ! but actually no...
Its more amazing after the main show
@@MikuOlliet No... start with Kizu means you don't respect the Studio. They did everything on purpose
"Standard Homunculus Rape Baby" is a disturbing, but fitting name for a hard-core metal band

"There is no way that's canon." Should be the tagline for all of Fate.

I'll stick to the Monogatari series, thanks

Wow. That's a reference to UBW which I did not see coming.
Not gonna lie, you caught me by surprise. Then again so did the phrase during the series. Have your upvote.

I'm sorry but I don't understand how lesbian lolis makes magical girl anime worth watching
“It’s not complicated I swear” - Random Fate Fan
You found me the random fate fan it’s not I promise if you said this just as a joke and you know then dw but if your someone who actually wants to get into fate or is curious I’d be happy to explain it simply
@@asura2452 Sure, I’m actually trying to get into Fate and I have only watched Stay/Night: UBW and Zero

I kinda want a long version. In one take. Possibly PCP lecture style. Possibly something more sane.
How the hell did I find you here of all places, Maintenance Renegade? And right next to a mention of the Horseshoe Crew.
What shows have you enjoyed from anime?
@Maintenance Renegade Bobbin's been fine. Really low viewership numbers since he's been come off Human Revolution to Sleeping Dogs and then The Longest Journey, but he's been spending most of the time making some pretty good lectures from Patreon requests thematically fitting to those games - East Asian/-inspired action films for the former, fantasy and alt-history for the latter. He's actually made two more lectures about the American Civil War during the latter.
>LOGH and Konosuba adjacent to each other
Why would I expect anything else from a channer? Still two very good shows, though.
Didn't even mention Tsukihime, Carnival Phantasm, or Kara no Kyoukai. That's the short version for you, I guess
but thats not fate. he would have mentionned them if the video was about type moon in general
he also missed fate requiem, fate type redline, and case files
Also didnt mention the fgo anime adaptations
@@Kisubaa Maybe because the video is older than the FGO anime ?
@@daerovius7535 nah first order was released in 2016
easiest way to get into fate.
read the visual novels. long, but worth it.
if you really can't read that much, don't be discouraged by what people say about dean's fate stay night, it's the worst entry in the series but it's not the unwatchable mess people make it seem. consider it like the first dull episodes before the show takes off in ubw and heaven's feel.
after that, regardless if you went the vn or anime route, watch fate zero and just consider all the other entries as official fanfiction.
they're not bad or worse than the main continuity, you don't have bad taste if you think they're actually better, but they're not essential in any way and you'll enjoy them far more if you get into them as cool little escapades in the fate universe rather than "the next piece of the great fate lore".
so yeah, see the main triology, the prequel, sequel's up for debate and everything else as you please whenever you feel that fate craving

Nasuverse as a whole while it's rewarding if you managed to understand. It is a hell to go through because of all the information it contains and some of them are just at the same time mind blowing and fucked.
Try the Leijiverse. Leiji himself hates continuity, so good luck figuring out whether the Harlock from the space train one is the same Harlock from Captain Harlock.

@@mahdibenhelal9189 i need to know this too
Yes officer, this guy right here.
others : fate is a multiverse and the original universe is the starting 3 movies.
Me who is an intellectual : I see. so all of the fate multiverse is something created by a almost dead mc inside his head just when hes about to die when his house exploded. so in other words all im saying is this is just pure fucking bullshit created by the mc and when he wakes up. thats it boom dead.
im sorry yall but this is the truth you have accept.
or you know try dying once and you will never forget the fear of death.
Here is the thing right: Just because gigguk is correct, doesn’t mean he is right.

Bruna Yamaguchi
I feel you, i mean it's.... no, just no xD
Can anyone explain what canon is?
kochu karu
It means something actually happened in the original story and isn't filler. For instance, if there's a beach episode in an anime and the manga didn't have a beach chapter and instead continued with the main story, the beach episode isn't canon. It's filler.
@@luxian0287 ah i c thank you
It's scary just how accurate this is to an actual conversation of "Where to start" I had with a friend of mine. To this day I'm not sure whether I am awake or in a coma from the brain aneurysm that her explanation surely gave me. Either way I've yet to start, and it feels like the longer I put it off the more impenetrable the franchise is going to become.
F/SN UBW(2014)-->F/SN Heavens Feel Trilogy(won't end until 2020?)-->F/Z(if you can't wait for the HF trilogy to end)-->Everything else is optional in whatever order...
th-cam.com/video/nhzytLBhmhU/w-d-xo.html
Watch F/SN (2006) it's pretty bad but it's the best starting point without reading the light novel
then, UBW which is pretty much the best one of the 3 parts, then Heaven's feel, then to complete the story watch Fate Zero since it was made in such a way that it is a sequel that happens to be a prequel meaning after the whole series has been watched it shows what put everything into motion. Anything outside of that is optional but a lot of it is pretty fun the Fate/Extra game is a fun rpg with small visual novel mechanics in order to romance your servants.
Personally, I think Fate/Zero is perfectly fine as a place to start. I mean, the VN would be ideal, but that's a hassle and a huge time investment. But Zero works just fine. Especially since ufotable's FSN adaptations assume you have seen Zero and make nods to it. Yeah, Zero spoils FSN, but FSN also spoils Zero. Either way, you're getting spoiled. But I think Zero is all around a better story, so I personally would rather that one be unspoiled.
Anyway, in short: read the VN if you can. Otherwise, F/Z followed by UBW(2014), followed by the Heaven's Feel movies is fine. Everything else in the Fate franchise are just spin-offs and completely optional.
The real answer is:
Start anywhere lol. The franchise was created with no intention of expansion, so it no longer matters if Fate zero spoilers UBW or otherway around. Whichever summary sounds more fun to you, then you start there.

Hello everyone that's just come from the long version. Turn back now before you get caught in the loop!
To put it simply
1. Historical characters in waifu/husbando form.
2. Fights to win a wish.
3. Grail kun

And some people wonder why we made Earth-chan. Saber is literally King Arthur chan and King Arthur chan's son.
@@rrteppo ah yes that why normie not know fate
the not-so-simply version:
1. sometimes, they're not even Historical Characters
2. sometimes, they're not even fight for wish
3. sometimes the Grail isn't even himself
Here's the waifu/hero creation kit. Go to town.

@@nathancabiles796 Fate Zero its the beginnig of the story, dont mind the people saying its spoil HF, its prequel watch it first, then you have the stay night three routs, (2006,UBW,HF) which have same characters with diffrent outcome, you can watch it in this order but I recommend watching UBW first because you get to know the character in good anime
YooNoo do NOT watch Fate Zero first. It’s a prequel, but it was created later and meant to be viewed after the originals. I recommend the Ufotable Unlimited Blade Works run first if you can’t play the visual novel
