Hopefully never!


Fate/Apocrypha is a Light novel series that came out several years ago. Set in a parallel universe from fate/stay night and fate/zero.

Fate/extra: Last Encore is an anime based on the Fate/Extra PSP video game that also came out several years ago. It is related to the Fate/stay night universe but is different as well. So some of the characters in it are the same, though they are different in some respects.(No Shirou is not in it)

Last Encore PV for those who have it blocked at the previous link. Miyamoto Yukihiro (Madoka, SZS, Arakawa) at the helm from what I'm reading

You don't. You let an expert on the subject matter do so and consult them instead. It's like how I'll never get Patlabor or Monogatari viewing order straight so I'll ask and ask again because we have nerds to answer these all important questions.

It's worth mentioning that Miyamoto Yukihiro is one of the more interesting directors at Staff and generally has a pretty stellar output so Fate/Last Encore should be good.

Yeah I'll be surprised if we don't see actual anime productions for Fate/Prototype (again!) and Fate/HA, not to mention the Tsukihime remake.

Doesn't have Fate in the name. Not directly related. Won't happen for a long time lol

It's pretty clear where the money and interest is, so expect a lot more Fate related stuff (of which there is a loooooooot) before any Tsukihime stuff is out. The remake game had been in production for a decade now and there is still no actual news about it other than designs and background art.
 
Monster Strike Encore/Continuation

Fantastic surprise from XFLAG today, eight minutes of post season content covering what everyone is doing at the release of Haruma's mom from the hospital.

New character Dora is silly but I like the jelly type monster with her. Curious how the new season will play out now that the monster are all living in the real world. Napolean w Aoi and Ryouma with Ren was the best. I hope Haruma gets Luc[y]fer.
 
Sengoku Basara S2 13 (OVA)

Pfft. This episode was perhaps the most hilarious Sengoku Basara has ever been. Leaning hard into Yukimura's absurdly earnest personality was a good choice; his voice actor really outdid himself here. Probably needed a lozenge after all that yelling. Katakura's intense embarrassment at playing along with Takeda's nonsense was really enjoyable as well. Some great effects animation in the fights.

It was clever to frame the whole episode as a flashback nestled within one of the last scenes of the season finale. Thematically the focus on Yukimura and Masamune's rivalry did a good job of setting up for what I assume will be a major element of The Last Party movie. Looking forward to watching that.

Yikes. Perhaps you'd appreciate these more mixed takes on the finale that just got posted on Wave Motion Cannon.
Yes, that article is certainly more interesting because it feels like the writers tried to give the show a fair shake while still remaining critical when appropriate. I can't say I was every really engaged with the material because it just felt like a lump of ideas shaped into a series which, under normal circumstances, would get filtered through the vision of the director but in the case of Flip Flappers those ideas just felt like a hodgepodge.
 
Welp then Shelter is definitely going on there. I'll see how I feel after I watch Fate later. Im unabashedly a Fate fan, so they would have to screw it up big time for me not to enjoy it.

Oh and the best OP overall is Kiznaiver's. But I'm throwing a shoutout to 91 Days' OP as well, even though the video that goes along with it isn't so great. Song is dope.
