Unless the lyrics are some kind of major sticking point, they're the same damned song. Except Disillusion doesn't use crappy PC synth instrumentals. |

Basically. I personally just really like her character design. I played the game and own the anime, and Fate/Stay Night is really just on the "average" end of things IMO, but damn do I like Saber's design... |

Well, to be fair, that isn't entirely the anime's fault. One thing about the visual novel is that the three story routes have to be played in order. You have to clear Saber's route (Fate) before you can access Rin's (Unlimited Blade Works), and you have to get through Rin's before you can access Sakura's (Heaven's Feel). Because the VN is set up like that, there's a lot of foreshadowing, in Fate especially, to set things up for the later routes, and some of that foreshadowing made its way into the anime. Those routes are not in the anime, though--so that foreshadowing just turns into a bunch of questions without answers (and the occasional answer without a question  ). If anything, the anime might have been a bit too faithful in that regard.
If there's one thing the anime can be faulted for, it's for not doing a better job of explaining the nature of the Servants (and how Saber is unusual in that regard). That played a major role in both Shirou's and Saber's actions in the latter part of the story; the anime barely touched on it, though, and their characterizations suffered as a result. |

I wish the news post would mention that each are 60 minute OVAs as I previously bought the tv series on blu-ray and was about to be enraged that they are now deciding to edit.

Well, you shouldn't have felt too bad anyways. It's got new animation and music added so it's like a new production. Gotta squeeze as much money out of the franchise as possible close to the theatrical release. Hopefully Archer's moment of glory is kept in. |

No I wouldn't be mad if they were to re-edit it. I would be pissed they didn't decide that earlier when they were releasing it on blu-ray. I mean that is like triple dipping(I can handle double dipping). I will be picking this up though.

Can't forget Akira as well. Either way I'm seriously gonna get this one if it's released in the US but with Geneon gone how's gonna get the remake of the series as well as the movie is beyond me. but what type moon should really do is make an anime series on Stay night's sequels Fate Hollow Ataraxia and Fate Type Zero. Am I wrong???? |

Well, if they are making a UBW movie, then there's room for a Heaven's Feel movie, which opens the door for Hollow Ataraxia. You really can't do Hollow Ataraxia without getting all the stories of Fate.
Fate Zero is a given afterwards. |

Because ever since I watched Fate/Stay Night earlier this year, it's driven me nuts why it's so popular ... therefore the news on the remake was the perfect opportunity to ask people about what is so appealing about it. And now I've learned a lot about the VN and it seems like it's a lot better (at least, it seems like it makes a lot more sense). |

Yeah, I'm not sure I get why it's so popular either. I have one friend who really, really likes it (saw an episode at AnimeExpo and immediately bought all the DVDs). But he's the kind of guy who likes collecting RPG figurines and mock weapons and is really into medieval mythology, so I guess that's not a surprise.
One thing I can say is that the anime was really pretty looking. I really like the character designs, and all the orange lighting in the evening scenes was really striking. Maybe I'll be able to tolerate watching it again if these movie editions are significantly shorter than the series (which I assume they are). But they'll probably end up throwing out characters' appearances in favor of more Shiro/Saber scenes. And I don't they're the best characters. |

Well, at least within ANN forums it's not that popular. It's not like I love or call this series something "extraordinary", but it's still inside my top 50 favorite at least. Plus, my experience with Fate/stay is limited to the anime only, and despite that, I didn't have any trouble in understanding the anime. |

"Re-shoot" seems an ambiguous sort of term when used regarding animation. I assume they meant they'll re-capture the existing cells in high-def, but nothing will be re-drawn except for the OP/ED. (Just re-edited, i.e. shot lengths changed and scenes removed).

Cells? Do they still use those? |

Not anymore for the most part. However, the resolution of the images they actually work on are MUCH higher than that of a DVD, so making a bluray these days is really just a matter of reducing the resolution to that of a bluray as opposed to that of a DVD... |

What would "shoot" entail, in that case? Are cameras even involved, now?
