Someone please summarize the entire plot of the Fate franchise from it's inception to most recent release

Someone please summarize the entire plot of the Fate franchise from it's inception to most recent release.

It was my impression that it was about sleepovers but I realized I was mistaken.

When people get killed. They die.

It was once about a guy who accidentally ended up in tournament where mages summon historical figures to kill each other. They decided that the "mages summoning historical figures to kill each other" idea was cool, so most incarnations since have just done their own take on the idea unrelated to the original. Sometimes it's futuristic.

>It was my impression that it was about sleepovers
What? Can you explain me this?

You're not that far off

I'm guessing stay over night?

Fate stay the night

A sword learns to become human

It's unfortunate that the holy grail war concept gets fellated so much when the most interesting things are present day magecraft, Church business and dead apostles. After a while one gets tired of seeing the next overpowered noble phantasm and the like.

>Nobody translates El Melloi II Case Files
>Not even now that there's a manga

Damn it all

>most recent release.

its a wish-fulfillment mobage about ''yuri and waifu'' pandering disguised as ecchi battle harem.
The plotline is basically ''male/female protags meet females servents who want his penis/vagina for no reason.

Painfully accurate

Here. This should suffice.

It's basically Pokemon but with heroes from myths instead of animals, also if you fuck the heroes they get stronger.

>Someone please summarize the entire plot of the Fate franchise from it's inception to most recent release.
The world's most pretentious battle harem.

this is my waifu, Why is she so cute?

Every pinoy fucktard I know never shuts up about this series. God I hate Filipino weebs, my only solace is that theyre all hideously ugly so most of them have some serious depression issues desu

>Pokemon
nah, Pokemon isn't a wish-fulfillment

There's even a barren wasteland holy shit

why is my waifu so cute?

You forgot to call in an isekai this time.
You gotta stay consistent senpai.

Are you sure about that?

The entirety of KnK is about people overcoming their Origins, like Tomoe worthlessness and Shiki's murder impulse. Tsukihime is about the value of life theme Shiki has going on. F/sn is about Shirou overcome a false origin (swords / blade works).

F/sn uses the HGW as a backdrop for the characters and themes, which nasu excels at. All the other fate spinoff are just DUDE SERVANTS FIGHTING LMAO, which is fun but not as memorable. There's a reason why Sup Forums has had type moon threads like every day for the past 10 years.

Fate/Stay Night is different from the later spin offs of the concept because the everything in the story had a *purpose.*

The point of bringing in mythological heroes was to ask the question "What makes a Hero?" and tie it to Shirou's own character arc.

Even the magic in the story exists to advance the theme. It's not just there to look cool (though it *does*) but each character's magic abilities is also a reflection of their character and personality.

They mixed a bunch of interesting concepts in the same universe, with various works that were simultaneously different in themes/characters, but similar in atmosphere and setting.

I don't know the rest, but seeing Prisma and all the pedo yuri bait makes me want to run away from it and not try anything else from the license.

...

That's a nice wholesome image.

non-harem and There arent too many waifus

Who is this semen demon?

New chapter of Waver's detective adventures is out btw. Love the art.

Prisma is a spin-off manga with a completely different feel and tone compared to the original VN

>Illya didn't get kuro a pillow too
wtf I hate Illya now.

saber

staying the night over at someone elses place
aka a sleepover
b-BAKA!

>the most interesting things are present day magecraft, Church business and dead apostles
Not at all

>I have not read Tsukihime or KnK

F/SN: a sword autist fucks King Arthur, a brunette Asuka, and an educated prostitute all because of a goddamn cup
Zero: follows sword autist's adoptive dad as he goes around shooting Harry Potter and his friends with a clothed version of Quiet. Also gets scammed by angry manjew.
Extra: It's the Matrix, but with waifus
Extra CCC: It's Fate/Extra (RELOADED)
Extella: It's Dynasty Warriors, but wi-you get the idea.
Prisma Illya: softcore ecchi spinoff starring a loli female version of Kaworu
Carnival Phantasm: all of Type Moon's characters decide to drink tea in some random cafe for no fucking reason at all
Grand Order: a digital slot machine where you pay real money to win pretty artwork you can get for free on the goddamn internet

A bunch of generic anime protagonists summon waifus/husbandos like Yugioh duel monsters to kill each other in a war for the holy grail, and need to fuck them regularly or else they disappear.

How accurate am I?

Pokemon with waifus and sex

This is bait or you jut don't know anything about Pokemon.

Oh yeah tell me more about dem epic excalibur laser beams please!

Inverted Harry Potter, started serious and got more lighthearted with each installation.

>It was my impression that it was about sleepovers but I realized I was mistaken.

Heh.

It's basically pokemon but with wizards and instead of Pokemon you have to invoke a historical figure to fight the other historical figures. The winner gets the Holy Grail and to be the very best. Like no one ever was.

Overall plot - Wizards summon heroes from the past to do battle for the holy grail, there's always some kinda twist near the end, usually an evil priest, and a lotta moral grey kinda posturing

Original game consists of three routes, each of them revealing more about all of the characters in play and the behind the scenes truth about the ritual and how its actually a ritual to summon the devil, which they put a stop to. And realize that wishing for stuff is bad or whatever.

Fate Zero is a prequel to FSN

Fate/Extra - the first of the stories about a grail war in a different world-line, because the original novel already revealed that there are infinite world-lines with infinite possibilities. Holy grail is just the name of anything that can grant a wish, so really there's a lot of grails. In Extra the holy grail is the Moon, and cyber hackers go into cyber space to do battle to the death over who has the rights to it. Theme of the story is stagnation, and what it means to be a human

CCC and Extella are continuations of Extra; they go deeper into the themes and stuff

Apocrypha is a slightly different world-line from Zero; except things slightly diverged during the third grail war of fuyuki. Its not that different though.

Fate/Strange takes place after FSN. Some magicians from America copied the grail war formula, and decided to create their own grail war. But things go wrong and whatever

Fate/Prototype - Is the original cocnept for Fate, where King Arthur was originally supposed to be a guy because the main writer changed it, and the final boss is Beast of Revelations, which it was originally meant to be. Before it became a galgame.

Fate/Grand Order - Basically a compilation game that takes all the characters and servants from the previous game, and creates some giant world wide problem big enough that everyone has to help save the world. Its basically Dragonball Xenoverse

There are some bad guys but the hero perseveres and wins in the end.

It's amazing how it mostly started from an H game.

Hottest scene.

Always feels like a leading way of saying it. Its like implying that the original game was just twenty hours of fucking nonstop, and that's all it was. Like "Its laughable that this porn movie is now War and Peace". Lotta the early on plot heavy VN's had to throw in a quick H scene in order to get sold at all. Its how you could get Otaku to play your shit, and realize "Hey there's a nice story here", eventually they accept you as a real writer. Which is why most manga artists also start off as H-manga writers. Porn in FSN is like five minutes out of 60 hours.

Most people would be surprised just how many notable stories and writers started off as "porn". Like most KEY games, and yet Clannad went down as one of the more popular anime of all time.

Caster is literally my wife

Its honestly laughable how hard Saber subs to women. She practically lets Rin rape her in the first H scene of Fate.

How long before they translate the Little Busters porn version.

It's about a young boy named Fate who stays one night at his neighbour Arthur's house to play with their sabers all night.

This image should explain things.

youtube.com/watch?v=P8lImjuKp14

Well, they could have gone the Bible Black route and focused on the porn and have the plot in the background, not that I'm complaining either way.

No you pretty much got it, the sleepovers are definitely the important part, the rest is basically filler

Pokemon is more wish fulfilment than fate. Anyone who wants to be shirou is probably a masochist or clinically insane.

If you were Saber, wouldn't you want to lose your lesbian cherry to a beautiful girl like Rin?

Here's the run down
>i think there's like a grail or something
>many people want grail
>they have a drubbing for it
BAM there you go it's faith or some shit.

Fate/Zero is the best entry

>Someone please summarize the entire plot of the Fate franchise from its inception to most recent release.


It's like the Olympics for claiming the Holy Grail and 3 wishes from a genie with shitloads of backstabbing.

That's basically fucking it.

Stay Night and Hollow Ataraxia are about Shirou and grail wars
Zero is prequel to above
Extra and CCC are about being people and selfishness or something in kickass setting
Extella and upcoming Extra anime are about Nero
Apocrypha is about adventures of Self Insert MCBland and his waifu Jannu D'Arc
Grand Order is gatcha game that has tons of semi important world building and is surprisingly not pay to win
Illya one starts out being about cute lolis but switches to being about Shirou later on

Chuunishits

A mage family tries to create miracles and finds they lack the necessary power. They begrudgingly reach out to other mage families for assistance.

With enough cooperation, they determine they can devise a ritual by drawing upon the powers of legends along with the energy of the other families. The sticking point is that only one miracle can be granted.

Their solution is to organize the ritual as a tournament, incentivizing throwing as much energy into the ritual as possible to improve its chances of success.

The first few wars fail, but some dumb fuck in the 3rd(?) war decides to try to game the rules. Instead of summoning an established heroic spirit, they try summoning "All the Evil in the World" hoping for some ultimate cosmic fuckmachine to win the war for them. They get an anonymous scapegoat from ancient history, ritually sacrificed after being blamed for all the world's evil. He's fucking useless, so the family gets clobbered. When the war is over, he gets put in the grail with the rest of the heroic spirits.

This poisons the grail: It remains an quite powerful artifact, but it is tainted with rage and resentment.
So now we get to later wars, which are delightful little pissing contests between the families.

Zero's war goes more or less correctly (as ugly as anything goes mage warfare gets), but the winner realizes he didn't get a wish granting cup, he got a seriously pissed genie who is only waiting for someone to make a wish so he can drown the world in flaming toxic sludge.

Fate's war picks up after the Grail only gets to sludge-bomb a single city after Zero. Each route goes off the rails in different directions. In a nutshell here, Fate is about saving someone, UBW is about saving everyone and Heaven's Feel is about saving the damned.

That's the jist. The majority of the other content is entirely separate.

Yugioh is far more complex than anything Nasu has come up with.

damn dude (not op) thanks for summarizing the series. I watched both zero/ubw and i was still confused af as to what the story was about

Some retard draws 2d girls with butts and boobs to compensate for shitty plot while selling merchandise to losers and basically you are fucking stupid.

Does anyone have a WEBM of this scene?

/thread

That's Illya's grandpa.

teenagers have sex with mythology
/thread

It's funny, really.
People who loves fate series are the ones who can criticize it objectively. While the genuine fate haters' only argument is "m-muh porn, m-muh waifu faggotry" while rejecting to actually read it meticulously.

...

people resurrect random dead people they pulled from an advanced history textbook to fight for a cup using whatever the hell makes them memorable

>m-muh waifu/husbando faggotry
This is completely legitimate.

ThAnks baller

>genuine fate hater
you might just be an oversensitive faggot if you think my post meant I hated the series. OP just needs to go read/watch something instead of asking to have it explained to him like a retard

>Apocrypha is about adventures of Self Insert MCBland
What? Last time I checked, Sieg was most hated protag in Fate and everyone wishes him to die. Noone selfinserts as him.

whoa why did shirou get a beard for the live action adaption?

sieg sucks and might now be some kind of marxist

He's self insert because of broken plot armor and astolfo and jeannuu want his dick
