Lost 3 weeks of my life trying to untangle the Fate watch order, and I still think I got it wrong
So last month my friend in Phoenix kept bugging me to start Fate, and I figured it would be easy, just watch the shows in order, right? Wrong. I spent 3 full weeks bouncing between Fate/Zero, Fate/stay night, and Unlimited Blade Works, and every guide I found said something different. One list told me Zero first, another said save Zero for last, and a third said just read the visual novel instead. I even made a spreadsheet with 4 different watch orders side by side, which felt insane for a hobby I do to relax. I finally just picked Ufotable's UBW first and honestly enjoyed it, but now I keep wondering if I messed up the whole experience. Has anyone here figured out a watch order that doesn't make people want to give up before episode 2?
