To everyone whining that the "hype is gone" because Ufotable isn't animating these, you are being ridiculous, Uoftable still has two Heaven's Feel movies and Today's Menu with the Emiya Family, you can't expect them to do two movies and TV anime on top of that too!

It is still comparable.Skipping Rome an America is one thing, nothing really happens there even though Rome would make a nice OVA for Nero after the debacle of Last Encore. But the story actually starts in London. London should have been the first one they did, even if it was a couple episode OVA, it is where the real story starts and without it people who have not played the game are going to be a little lost. Personally I would like a short couple of episode adaption of London (not just because Mordred is everywhere but because it just makes sense) and then Camelot and Babylonia. Starting with London would mean people know what is going on and the reactions that certain characters offer through Camelot. |

Perhaps I shouldn't have put it in spoilers, but I did think that London could be a challenge to skip. At least one episode would be good, but I think even part of one could help. I agree that the pertinent events to the overall plot in that singularity would need to be covered in some form to be plausible for anime only viewers,

Pretty excited about this. The Ufotable FSN adaptations, 3rei, Emiya-sanchi and Fate/Extra were really good shows, let's hope these FGO adaptations are more similar to those shows and less like Apocrypha.

Seeing someone else mention Prisma Illya 3rei as one of the good Fate series makes me so happy. 3rei is pretty much my favorite Fate ever (Prisma as a whole I like a lot) especially with all the crazy awesome stuff that happens in the manga. |

I've been hoping that there would eventually be a TV series that would cover all the singularities. Well, I got one at least.

The video that we originally embedded in this article was a region-free reupload by a reader. We linked to the region-locked videos as a source, and warned they were region-locked, but the video we embedded was a region-free one. Unfortunately, that region-free reupload was later removed after we posted this article, so I've now edited the article to just embed in the original videos, with a clear warning that they're region-locked to Japan. I don't know where you're getting this idea that we regularly post region-locked videos. We never post region-locked videos unless we can help it like for Aniplex of America and Funimation videos region-locked to the US. For videos that are region-locked to Japan, we will usually never embed them, but we will link to them as an official source, warn that the video in the link is region locked, and then embed a region-free reupload instead. Sometimes we'll post videos region-locked to Japan by accident, because several of our staff, including myself, live in Japan and don't realize that while we can see the videos, others might not. |

Camelot I can sorta figure. Hopefully they'll do Serenity Hassan well. But Babylonia, no idea. Isn't launched yet in the western market.
Always kinda partial to the Jeanne Alter story. Which was made a bit more interesting when you get her and do her interlude/etc. Rome was kind of absurd. The Drake one had it's moments but I don't think the authors did much of any study on the pirates they are using. Which was the most disappointing part. So much potential and they squander it. London...huh? So forgettable. American one...you could tell it was written by someone who has never traveled outside Japan and has no concept of how big the US is or how diverse the climate is. They really should have localized the conflict more if they wanted to cheap out on drawing more BGs for the story. |

Have you guys complaining about skipping London played through Babylonia? I'm just legitimately curious because I don't see any issue really. The character you're referencing in London has no real part in Babylonia. There is no reason they would need to go into specifics. Same thing with Camelot. There are some brief references to what happened in London, but they can leave that part out entirely changing nothing. London would only matter if they wanted to animate the final singularity of part 1
As for skipping the earlier singularities, they really don't have much of a compelling story to adapt. I'm not saying there weren't good parts, but there just isn't enough total content in there. Those story chapters were full of ridiculous padding where characters just talk for a bit and are randomly attacked during a conversation. Now sure, whoever is making the anime could fluff out a more grand adventure, but would you trust them to make quality original content? They'd also risk annoying the people who did like it a lot by changing things. |

I can only speak for myself, but since it hasn’t come out on the US version yet, I have not. Given what you have said, I guess skipping London wouldn’t be so bad for Babylonia (or Camelot) by themselves, but if they wanted to animate at least the parts pertinent to the overarching plot, it would be necessary, and for those who would like to see them animate as much of the game as they can, not including London could be cause for concern.

I'm not sure that is ever going to be in the cards. They've been incredibly sensitive to anything spoiling the conclusion of the main story to the point where they will lock players out of events which is incredibly detrimental to newer players who likely haven't finished the story. To have a cohesive story, they'd need more than London anyway. First Order leaves off on a sort of cliffhanger with Lef. |

How many visual novel/mobile games are left until they have adapted all of such games in the Fate/ franchise?

From VN medium only Ataraxia, probably. And FGO is the only Fate-based mobage. But there are at least 3 more light novel series worth the adaptation and a couple of mangas. |
