Should I watch anime?
Having played the 2 translated routes of FSN, should I go ahead and watch the anime? Or will their amalgamation plot spoil Heaven's Feel?

sorry for the intrusion, but I would think it's safe to watch. the only hf spoiler I can recall is rin-sakura relationship. the nature of the grail portrayed in the anime has all been covered by fate.Miraploy wrote:Sounds dangerous, I'm still not sure.

I don't think it's horribly bad myself. Well, at least I didn't really complain about the art. Didn't actually concentrate too much on the anime itself =P.
It'd be best to play the game first imo, then laugh at the anime.

must be the archer vs berserker scene, right? oh wait, that's ep 13drizzt_rocks wrote:Other than ep 14
the improvisation was done quite nicely, if I were to say. and nice blend of fate with elements from other routes (95% of fate, 15-20% of ubw, and 5% of hf, if I recall?)drizzt_rocks wrote: I thought it was a pretty bad anime adaptation but I found the story premise to be pretty interesting and then I found it was based on a visual novel ... if I were to recommend I would say never watch it but rather just play the "game" ... but since you have already seen it oh well
remember guys, adaptation != real thing. just like harry potter, adaptations tend to have some altered elements which the readers dislike

whoops you know which one I am talking abourt anywaysRaitei wrote: must be the archer vs berserker scene, right? oh wait, that's ep 13
Haha like I said I found out about the visual novel after the anime so I didnt judge it based on any prior expectations. But I did judge it against other anime and it was an average anime adaptation with an interesting premise which left me feeling underwhelmed and thinking it could be soo much better and got me to research more about it. Reading through the acual vn just helped me see that the anime could have been handled much better.Raitei wrote: the improvisation was done quite nicely, if I were to say. and nice blend of fate with elements from other routes (95% of fate, 15-20% of ubw, and 5% of hf, if I recall?)

Its hard to pinpoint the exact failure of the anime but I think this stems from the anime following the visual novel far too closely. It didnt use the freedom that was granted to it by virtue of being an anime except in ep 13 where Archer and Berserker fought. It was pretty much like watching a visual novel being instead of watching an anime. Basically it didnt take advantage of the medium it was being shown in.
Since I aint a harry potter fan I wont talk about it. But in lord of the rings the book had soo much stuff going on between major battles that it would have become boring as hell to show in a movie. These changes if made cleverly help the adaptation. But the fsn adaptation doesnt do that. It just ends up adding random crap which gives out spoilers to ubw and hf without actually explaining anything. It didnt remove any of the meaningless crap and instead added in pretty large spoilers without explaining anything (You seriously cant say that you had no idea who archer was after watching the anime ... they lay it out in front of you). That it is why it was just an average adaptation ... Ep13 gave hope of what could be tho

"in before the opening song changes", that's what recorded in my brain. thing is, my memory seems a little vague, so I'm struck between ep 13 and 14.Enerccio wrote:Ep 14, don't fool the manRaitei wrote:must be the archer vs berserker scene, right? oh wait, that's ep 13drizzt_rocks wrote:Other than ep 14(
@ drizzt rocks
however, if you read harry potter, you can find some scene / character alteration that just don't match with what is expected. seems out of place, really. thing is, I don't think that same goes for f/sn the anime
