Review: Fate/stay night Unlimited Bladeworks (anime)

Note how i'm very VERY particular about the title. This is the 2014 reboot you could say of the same anime that was released back in 2004 (i think, but somewhere around that time, back then it was just 'fate/stay night'). The story was pretty good... the fighting scenes were... meh.

In the Unlimited Bladeworks version, the story was revamped. there's a better buildup of characters (of course the graphics are much much better, where's the doubt?) personalities, quirks and so on, giving a better insight into the character's mindset. Not just that, but the timeline of the night when our protagonist 'almost' gets killed has also been revamped and is actually far more complex than before - leaving you to wonder how, why, when and who planned it?

Our heroes (the summons) now have better looking equipment, their weapons look far more polished and their attacks are AMAZING. I loved the revamp mostly coz of this! I mean... who doesn't love a great well detailed fight scene?

Anyway, a lot of loopholes were finally fixed and the story seems to be fleshing out way better than back in 2004. This anime i would recommend to Shonen fans who love their fight scenes as well as to those who would like to see a well made anime where the characters are not as stereotypical as they normally would be.

A must watch and sadly I've only watched season 1 (or rather the first 12 episodes~) of unlimited bladeworks as of yet.. so i'm waiting for season 2 to download and for those of you who haven't watched the older version of fate/stay night, DON'T.

And do NOT spoil my fate stay night for me ^^
