[edit - iam watching fate stay night, 2006 ]
Can someone give me the watch order of the series. Including ovs, special, or whatever. Any three are fine for now.
Iam asking because i watched like 2 or 3 episodes a long time ago, when i was new to anime. probably 4 or 5 years now, yah i watched it in YouTube .
The problem is the animation and the passing of the show is not sitting right with the little memories i have of it show, they look really old, and the introduction of characters, and story direction feel different.
like that orange hair dude wasn't introduced to the story yet in those 2 episodes (they did showed him but that's all), but now in this show they are showing his so soon and telling all about him, his family and his daily routine iam not because i just fast forward a watched from the middle, because i wasn't sure i was watching it in the right order.
Iam just confused 😕 right are my memory lying. Or did it had a remake like "HXH".

For more details:- what i remember is after summoning the wrong dude or whatever he is, they fight with an enemy although this dude is not that strong but as the enemy he has a lot of swords. I watched till their or i remember, it happens in two episodes or three, but they keep the orange hair dude as some what mysterious. That's what I remember watching.

I think you are talking about the prequel episode of Fate Stay/Night: Unlimited blade works.

Which means you are actually fine with what you are currently watching, because Unlimited blade works is (in simplest terms) an alternative retelling of this show.

I think what you watched was episode 0 of fate stay night unlimited blade works, it isn't actually multiple episodes it's just one, but I can understand why you felt it was longer coz it is, it's actually an 45 mins long episode.

Watch it again and see if you remember something.

If you want the whole franchise :







As mentioned by the users above, you were thinking of the Prologue of Unlimited Blade Works (UBW). That's another "Route" to the story; basically, it's a story with the same characters, the same setup, the same start, but the protagonist does different choices, leading to a complete different development of the story, be it to its event or the fate of the characters.

You can technically watch UBW before the 2006 Anime, but its revelations are entirely built up on what you know from the 2006 Anime.

ok so basically there's two valid watch order options. either you watch all of the three stay night routes first before finishing off with zero, or you do the opposite.

the order that you watch the three branching routes doesn't really matter in theory, but it's probably better to watch them in release order as the degree of complexity increases with each alternate route.

in your case, i'd start with the fate stay night 2006 adaptation, since it's easily the worst one here and after seeing how good the other series are, it will get hard to watch the 2006 series. that's what i did and i don't regret it.

if the fate stay night 2006 series gets a proper remake though, i would definitely watch fate/zero first and then watch the rest.

1. fate stay night 2006
2. fate unlimited blade works prologue
3. fate unlimited blade works s1
4. fate unlimited blade works s2
5. fate unlimited blade works sunny day
6. fate heaven’s feel 1-3
7. fate/zero
8. fate/zero s2
9. all the lord el melloi stuff (spin-off series about a character in fate/zero)

there isn't really a set order to watch the franchise, but the one above is probably the one i'd recommend to people, since you get the mid adaptation out of the way first and you won't have as high of expectations for it than if you watched it after fate/zero or wtv.

the reason why there's not really a proper watch order for the franchise is that fate is a giant complicated multiverse. fate/zero serves as a prequel that lays a foundation that leads up to the events of the fate/stay night VN. the fate route (2006 adaptation), unlimited blade works and heaven's feel are the three routes. there's one route for each "waifu". the lord el melloi spin off is a sequel to fate/zero that takes place in a theoretical fourth route that combines aspects of the three main routes, but you can basically just think of it as a sequel at this point tbh bc the events basically take place before the 3 main routes of the fate/stay night VN.

there's many other series with fate in the name that belong to the same multiverse, but, to my recollection, these are really the only ones that are relevant to the original fate/stay night visual novel (aka the story of Shirou and Kiritsugu). the other series are basically alternate universes that don't really connect to the main 3 stay/night timelines. you can watch after, but there won't really be any major connections made to the main timelines.

if you have any questions, let me know. this franchise is super complicated, but that's probably the simplest way i can put it for someone trying to get into it.

@Yeshaiah2015yesh no problem. also my bad i completely missed this reply. if you watch it release order, you'd be watching fate/zero second which is never gonna be the best option. you've probably already watched it by now, but if you still have questions just hmu. keep in mind that the original fate/stay night anime is a rly mid adaptation, but dont let it scare you. the rest of the series is peak anime; ufotable did their thing frl. hope you gave it a chance.
