Personally i'd recommend Fate Zero(you may need to watch FSN UBW or play the VN if you don't mind since it's a prequel of FSN) For anyone who hasn't seen Fate Zero yet i'd still recommend waiting for heaven's feel before watching it, assuming you want to/plan to ever watch heaven's feel/FSN in general. Best viewer experience imoimo. couldn't you have said that like 5days ago  Lol we did tell you to not do Zero 1st when you 1st posted about it :3 but yea Zero does spoil some elements of HF (though imo it isn't nearly as big of one as people make it out to be). you told me to watch FSN first, I thought the movie you were talking about was something that's already out  I didn't mention HF specifically? My bad if I wasn't clear enough  Speaking of the HF movie, I heard they might break it up into 2-3 movies? I didn't really look up the movie you mentioned, I only remember you mentioning one. Kind of assumed that's an already aired movie and noone in irc mentioned starting with that so I just went with F/Z before FSN because the only one who wanted me to start with FSN besides you was eca because "you need to go through the DEEN suffering to get the real experience"
Rofl thats good stuff. Though you probably can't truly appreciate the DEEN suffering unless you played the vn and know where they went wrong. You might have been thinking of UBW (the movie) that was also made by DEEN.
Basically you won't die doing Zero 1st. The most important thing for a Fate show is who made it. If DEEN burn it with fire, if Ufotable then enjoy.

No romance/comedy, but aside from that drama/thriller/mistery/action are all fine, as long as they're well done, and there arent any fillers in the story. I mostly watched better known animes, im not a hardcore fan
To illustrate what i mean, my favorites were Code Geass, Deathnote, Fullmetal aclhemist,
Others that i liked a lot, with some reservations: Cowboy Bebop, NG Evangelion, Legend of korra, Attack on titan, Claymore (the manga, cuz the anime disgraced itself with that horrible season ending), Yu Yu hakusho...
Liked Naruto/bleach as well, but lost interest in both rather quickly.
I mean i dont mind, if there's a lot of mindless fighting in it, im not above enjoying Overpowered shit being thrown back and forth, as long as they stay somewhat consistent to the premises of the show, and the story doesnt drag, but still flashes out the characters and the subplots.
Any good fits?
Not sure if anyone else suggested it but you might Darker Than Black.

So, can someone elaborate on this DEEN business?

While the Fate thing seems 100% DEEN I feel LH was more the source being weak than just DEEN. Sure the animation was garbage but ye the scrub squad was all source I hear.
As for what they did for Fate adaption. They effectively cut up the 3 different routes and shoved certain aspects into one adaption even though it started as a mainly Fate route adaption so nothing lands up making sense and MC is at the most awful point in the story by the end point. They then made a movie based on the second route(UBW) which was decent but since it's a movie it was more like a summary of the route than an actual adaption of it. The animation wasn't too bad overall compared to something like LH but not quite the level of ufotable.

honestly, everytime someone links me UBW scenes that supposedly look super good it looks maybe a bit above average to me with lots and lots of really, really good lightning/wind effects but not really the animation being what's making it look good.

For hand drawn, the animation in certain episodes is solid. Saber vs Berserker while the animation itself isn't godly the detail is excellent and it's animated well. It's not movie quality because you can't dump that kind of $ into a 24-26 episode show. I think that's why most fights after Saber vs Berserker have had a lot more dialogue where they face off and talk. Compared to most shounen or shows in general where battles have a lot of stills it's pretty great animation wise.
The CGI parts in the show are still animated excellently. That would be smoke/fires/lightning/magic/lights etc I guess?

havn't actually seen it yet. I'm only getting linked gifs from time to time

I thought we already acknowledged that akatsuki arc is terrible. It is even eca unapproved.

Ufotable aren't really that amazing when it comes to animation/choreography. They just really good at lightning/overlay effects to set the mood. IG/Bones are far better when it comes to those things. Even Madhouse has some shows where they got really fluid animation. People that gush over UBW/FZ haven't really watched some of the more beautiful anime out there honestly. P.A works also deserves a mention for beautiful art.

shokugeki was so cute and fun. Everything about that was cute. Also, megumi is awesome. The flashback was really simple but it was pretty heartwarming.
Also oregairu + Show Spoiler +![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/mJLthppm.jpg) This episode was beyond cute but there was quite the amount of tension. I love this suffering ;A;
