I want to believe that the best FSN story is one that manages to wrap up Ilya, Saber and Archer's storylines into one a la the Coco Path.

Don't even need Rider/Caster/Kotomine and other things. Just let the happy family be happy.

Eh, we'll see. Same reasons I don't try to play the game, I'm not too excited for this special. But I'll give it a shot. It is only a special, after all, not a 52-episode investment or some such.

The first part of that PV, prior to the appearance of Lancer, looked like a promo for Muv-Luv Alternative. D:

King Hassan, aka The First Hassan. Nasu is really not pulling any punches with the Babylon chapter.

So the OVA is out and I gave it a watch this morning while I had the time.
Spoiler: show
All in all, I would say it was decent. Not necessarily something to jump up and down about, but it was still good enough that I enjoyed it and even had a few laughs.

The Plot is different from the game, curiously. The Servants in this HGW are different than in the game. Originally, the line-up was Saber Alter / Benkei (deceased) / EMIYA (deceased) / Medusa (deceased) / Cu Chulainn / Cursed Arm Hassan (deceased) / Heracles (deceased). The Servants were just shadow servants, which I don't remember having any real personality, so it was a nice touch that we got something out of EMIYA and Lancer!Medusa. Also pictured was Rider, which I have a hunch was Darius III, given the similarity in designs with his Berserker version.

It felt a little rushed: they probably could have taken a little longer but they covered Fuyuki pretty well. The plot was different here was well: originally Cu Chulainn fights you in order for Mashu to awaken her Noble Phantasm. I don't remember the part with Olga Marie being flung into Chaldeas, jesus. o.o

The animation was probably my biggest criticism: I really do doubt with the money that was made off of F/GO that they couldn't have gotten a much better studio to do the animation. It was rough, not necessarily bad, but rough throughout, but the fight scenes lacked a lot of flair and energy and Caster's NP being CG and then...animated was really bizarre. Felt like a cop-out to actually animating the entirety of Wickerman. There is confirmed to be more, but I really hope they get someone better to do the animation. Whoever they have doing it now was in over their heads. Fou was about 1000% less fluffy than normal / 10.

This all said, there is good points. Mashu is pretty likeable and its not really an exaggeration to say that Cu really stole the show: he's pretty much the reason I kept watching towards the end. Fujimaru is bland and Olga Marie was really underdeveloped.

I'd probably place it...5.5-6? I think with a bit better direction, and much better animation, it could have been a lot better.
