Fate/Stay Night [1080p] [Anime-Supreme]  

Fate/Stay Night is based on a visual novel (game). In that game, there are three different endings/routes. This series here is based on one of those routes, while the unlimited blade works movie is based on a different route (the third route has not been made into an anime series/movie yet, Fate/Zero is a prequel to this story). So yes, UBW and this series here start out pretty much the same, but differ greatly later on. Watch both, they are both very good.

why is the size of this smaller than the 720P release?  

Great compression algorithms maybe?

Anyone having jap audio issues with Ep 21? For some reason, the audio seem to speed up when Saber attacks into Gilgamesh's swords and then start delaying after she teleports from Gilgamesh by a couple of seconds.

So better quality then 780 p, smaller file and dual audio? Anything I'm missing that says I should be trying the 780p one?

This is the version with all the retouching and fixes right?

For those wondering, it appears this follows the 'Fate' route. You can confirm it by looking up the final episode's summary and looking up the Routes.

I HIGHLY recommend you read the wiki, as it goes on to explain the 'Fate' route....you won't be as sad then with the ending.

I experienced the speed up at that same time. Tried skipping back and restarting the file a few times but it was still there. I ended up just pausing it and adding audio delay at that point. Didn't notice the delay you mentioned afterwards but I very well could have just missed it.
Was using KMPlayer at the time if that matters (which BTW doesn't tend to do subs correctly in terms of font and placement)
Gone back to using media player classic for anime recently but haven't gone back and watched this using it.


Or play/read the visual novel, if you have the patience... Goes into far more depth than the series. Although already knowing the story from the anime will probably make it feel very slow paced.

After watching this anime and its sequel, GOD I WANT MORE!!!!  

What processor do you have?

I just watched the 14th episode and i still want more ,waiting for the download to be finished now Waa

i have a problem with the subtitles, i'm watching it on a mac with mountain lion (10.8) and vlc (latest version), only this series i cant see (i guess due to .ass subtitle instead of srt), does anyone know how can i fix this? thanks in advance

Actually, maybe the question would be: are there subtitles?
I finished downloading it yesterday and it seems to have just the audio in English. It doesn't have either the audio in Japanese or subtitles in English.
Is this happening only to me?  
Thank you in advance!

EDIT (27.01.2013): @KaEdRoS, maybe you've already seen all the episodes, but I figured out something that might helps you. I was using Media Player Classic and here is what I did:
1) I clicked on the screen with the right button;
2) I went to "Filters" option;
3) After that, I went to the last possible option, which referred to my path's file;
4) Then, I choosed the option "S: ASS [Japanese]" ;
5) Guess what? The English subtitles showed up!
By the way, in "Filters", you can also change the audio between English and Japanese languages.

At last but not least, I'm ADDICTED to the whole Fate project!
I'm getting all the contents possible (episodes, movies, mangas, novels, games and so on...) and enjoying it like I almost never did.
Really great work! It's that kind of story which you can keep talking about for years, since there are too many possibilities to talk about. It's even kinda fun how I've just seen it now, even though it's available on internet since years. On one hand, I guess it showed me that there are a lot of very good stuff that we don't even know about and that we might never know. On the other hand, it also showed me that we can always have hope to keep finding good animes to really enjoy.  
I'll be seeding it until the rest of my life, hahah, thank you all the ones who made this upload possible

Does Shirou get more tolerable? I'm at episode four, and about to puke from utter disgust. If he's like this throughout the whole show, I'd rather just watch the prequel that is said to be so much better.

Just go watch Fate/Zero. There's very little that you'll miss even if you don't watch this first and you can always just read the Wikipedia or Type-Moon Wiki summaries to catch the little details. Personally, I think the only scene worth watching is Archer speaking English in episode 14 I believe. It's kind of a shame because most of the anime adaptations Type-Moon did after this is really fantastic: Kara no Kyoukai, Fate/Zero, Unlimited Blade Works (kind of), even Carnival Phantasm. But then the main plotlines for their 2 flagship series just have terrible, terrible adaptations (i.e. this and Tsukihime).

Different topic, are there comparison screens for this and the 720p version somewhere? Related question, is this an upscale? For some reason I have a sneaking suspicion it is.

I wouldn't call this terrible, at least not the same kind of terrible as the Tsukihime anime. For an attempt at mashing Fate, UBW and Heaven's Feel together into a single storyline it's not bad...I've definitely seen worse VN adaptations (looking at you Shuffle! and Da Capo). Shame they went for the UBW/Fate crossover ending though, the Heaven's Feel ending is far better.

You can always compare with worse alternatives, and then it'll seem less bad. I'm not interested in the visual novels, and watched this with no expectations other than wanting to be entertained. In the end it strikes me as mediocre, which may very well be better than bad, but why settle for mediocre when there's so much awesome anime out there?

im just two episodes in and gotta say this is a epic series.

love the dual audio and quality of sound and video and all the pretty colors as they go so fast and vivid

I wasn't sure about this as the Visual Novel didn't quite capture me, but I have to say I am really enjoying this.

The Excalibur seems different with the one in Fate/Zero . This one looks thinner
