Talk:Fate/Apocrypha × FGO Special Campaign/@comment-35080849-20180424114344/@comment-35272483-20180424192521

Apocrypha is a novel, and it's a Fate franchise, meaning the name by itself kinda guarantees the project's success (do I need to mention the show was riding on FGO's success too?). The hacks (read producers) behind this adaption could've very well pushed for another 2-cour season instead of rushing it.

I couldn't care less about shounen battles, what really drives this franchise is character interaction and monologues, which there is plenty of in the novels. But it seems forced self-insert romance and pokemon battles take priority fo being more appealing to dumbasses.

Making excuses for this show by saying "it had a bigger cast" only makes it look worse given the terrible choices made to give Sieg and Jeanne that huge chunk of screentime.

But then again what can you expect from A-1 Pictures and the guy who directed fucking Charlotte?
