This sucks.
No, seriously. This trilogy of movies just sucks. Straight up.
I'm gonna be blunt when I say this: I think that ufotable does NOT do the Fate series justice. When adapting a visual novel to anime, you have to understand that you are working with a INHERENTLY difficult medium to adapt into anime. You have to remember that visual novels are wordy. Really wordy. Their charm comes into reading their prose, almost like a book with pictures.
And I'm gonna be blunt with this one: They should've just left Fate to DEEN.
If there's something I can bring myself to like about DEEN's Saber Route, is that they get everything about what makes Stay/Night right. While the animation isn't super good, they get the atmosphere right. They get the vibes right. They get the way these characters…

This is going to be a review of all three films. The first one is good, the second is when things start to slip up, and the third is just plain bad. There is potential in the setup, but the writers are so bad that they screw it up in the plot department.
The characters are all unlikeable, with the exception of sabre, the teacher and Archer, who are taken out of the picture early. We get no backstory for rider, who takes up so much goddamn screentime. At first Ilya tries to kill the MCs but then she joins them for no reason. Shinji abusing his sister was just gratuitous. Shirou never asks any of the questions begged by all the infodumps he received from other characters frequently, instead being content with chilling in his harem house. Also, how did Ilya know that her brother was selecte…

If you want a movie with a lot of good animation, go for it, this one is full of that, but as an adaptation it fails in a lot of ways, this is not just an "ok" adaptation, it's essentially a 20 lines essay about a 200 pages book, so the plot might be confusing, the characters be much less interesting than what they actually are, and yes, even the fights mostly lack in comparisson to the original material, so for the true experience i recommend to check out the Visual Novel.
Aside from that, if you don't actually know the source material, you might have a pretty good time, visually it's great, soundtrack is cool as well, the plot is still pretty good since the original material is amazing, but it's still like comparing a casual breakfest to a complete Christmas meal, it still has a great ta…

I’ve already gone through the first two films in this trilogy and now it’s time to look at the third. See if, unlike Unlimited Blade Works, it manages to have a satisfying conclusion. Because I’m honestly getting a little frustrated with this franchise and its great premise, decent build ups and complete letdown conclusions.
Story:
We open with Shirou finding Shinji’s corpse. We quickly learn that the monster within Sakura comes from the Matou family trying to fashion her into a grail and our heroes find themselves in a race against time to save her.
Let’s start with the big problem in this film and one that’s starting to look like a common failing of the franchise. The ending is pretty rubbish. The last quarter of the film is almost entirely nonsense. Let me share a revelation I’ve had…

Where do I start...
This as the privelage to be the first fate where I was very bored loking at the hours and wanting the film to finish. I was so hyped cause I had finished UBW 2 or 3 months ago and I wanted to wait for the subtitles for this movie and then see all the 3 movies.
The notes I gave were:
Heaven’s Feel I. Presage Flower- 7
Heaven's Feel II. Lost Butterfly-10( archer was unbeliveble)
The final movie was a 5
STORY( I will try to not give spoilers):
I had the feeling it was to rushed there were a lot of shirou scenes and fights I didin't like, they also give me the feeling of a Rin part in the final minutes of the movie where it gived me the impression that they were inventing stuff, it was to rushed and why just appering or even talk about it now. Oh and the final scenes... no…

If you are a die-hard fan of the type-moon visual novels, I'm sure this movie has something for you. If, however, you have not played through the VN, it will likely leave you confused as to how anybody could possibly sift through the piles of pseudo-intellectual masturbatory ramblings to find the plot. Character motivations are inconsistent and at times non-existent, and not a single one of them is likable. Why did this character do this thing? You won't know but they'll damn sure wax philosophical about it for five to ten minutes, leaving you with more questions than when they started.
In the end, ufotable's stellar animation and admittedly high-tier sound design can't save this film from a soap opera plot based around toxic relationships and unsympathetic teenagers.

Finally! God knows how long I've been waiting for this absolute masterpiece to appear within my grasp. So this is how it feels after seeing your dad return from the convenience store with his milk. Maybe even better.
I still can't believe it's over. I was screaming and crying—my neighbors probably heard me, and before I realized it, it's already over. Like the two prior movies, Spring Song is a masterpiece. A fine piece of art bestowed upon us peasants who aren't even allowed to peer before its presence in the first place, but God was generous enough to let us do so. The art style and quality are as outstanding as ever, and for some reason, the movie questionably has some Fate/Grand Order - Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia camera angles for a certain best girl's fight scene, but I wasn't…

As someone who didn't came from VN, I probably didn't enjoy as much as those who did but I enjoyed as much everything as possible
Here's my take, Story wise obviously it's a clusterfuck (It ain't fate if it isn't)
To me the story was really amazing and sad at the same time. It really overwhelmed me by a lot. I literally took a sigh after finishing it. It was a relief that I finally finished this whole overwhelming story.
Art wise, I don't think I needed to say anything about it
Fate has always been one of the or in fact could be the best anime's with the best fighting scenes. The fighting scene on this particular ones has been the best enjoyment through out every single other anime I've watch.
For the Sound, They sure know how to bring tears :")
Character wise, The development was r…

I used to hate Shirou Emiya.
In this review, hopefully I’ll be able to lay out why that feeling no longer remains, and why this franchise is so special. I hope you’ll bear with me; as an aspiring writer, I find the inspiration of this route so incredibly personal and affecting that I have to put some of it into words. As this is the conclusion of a trilogy, I will also refer back to Presage Flower and Lost Butterfly.
Like many anime viewers I started with ufotable’s Fate adaptations. In a weird and convoluted manner, I entered the world of Fate by watching the first episode of Fate/zero, then UBW, then back to Zero. Though my expectations of Fate were defined more by UBW than Zero, I still felt the latter to be more artistically constructed. UBW seemed incomplete.
There’s a very good r…

What a satisfying conclusion to the HF series. Even though they left out some things from the VN, the fights were some of the best ever depicted to date. This movie was a really good payoff coming from a VN fan.
Salter vs Rider should win animation of the year.
Hopefully they remake the OG route. Saber deserves better and is the best.
Ufotable should animate the FGO Lostbelts too.
God damn I'm still shook. Fuck Demon slayer, This is easily the movie of the year for me. Looking forward to the Camelot movie, hope that one is good too.

I had the privilege to watch this in theater, and my oh my what a good movie from ufotable.
The pacing of the story is on the fast side, I liked it, just missing out some details, but it's all good.
I had high expectations when it comes to fight scenes from ufotable, and it's incredible that it exceeded my expectaion so much. ufotable just never disappoints you on the artwork, sound, fight scenes.
The depth of the characters were developed quite well in the previous two movies and this one continued on that.
Overall, it was a great enjoyment watching this in theater

So, Heaven's Feel III. I had already been expecting high quality animations, but this blew those expectations out of the water. Seriously, this was incredible.
I think what I liked so much about this route (besides the animations) was the way characters who didn't get much attention in the previous routes had the spotlight in this one, and we were given a deeper look into the thoughts of each of them (I think this is strongest for Illya).
The story was very interesting with the different scenarios, situations, and outcomes, but I honestly have to say I preferred the more personal story of UBW which focused on Shirou and Archer. Something that was especially interesting in this one though was the new information we're given on Shirou and Archer's abilities, and their effects on one anoth…

SPOILER FREE REVIEW
This movie was so good that putting it into words would require Kinoko Nasu to write it down for me, as only he can come up with shit like tohsaka's defenseless (ok thats a bit overexaggerating), anyways, this movie was just an incredibly satisfying fun roller coaster ride from start to finish with a seasoning of sadness as the topping, this movie is an experience not to be missed in the theatres especially with the amount of budget they dumped into this .
The sound design for when saber swings her Excalibur to the ost of choice which should sound familiar to you fellow fate fans, and the song at the end, all of it were excellent, it made scenes that would be very good to absolutely fucking great
The story makes sense with fate zero and the previous ufotable fate st…

Spoiler Free Review
Fate/stay night Movie: Heaven's Feel - III. Spring Song is an mesmerising experience in the theaters, I highly recommend to watch in the cinemas. You would be missing out in the sheer scale of the movie if you were to watch it in any other way.
The movie is an entertaining and emotional rollercoaster filled to the brim with amazing moments and fights. Shirou goes through many hardships to reach to the point his in and actions the characters carry out is very much in line with what the story has presented in the past 2 movies and shows. Despite the grand ideas, the movie is able to make sense if you have watched Unlimited Blade Works and Fate/Zero. Even with the scale of everything, this is a deeply personal story for Shirou as he deeply cares for Sakura.

I am one of those lucky people who got a ticket from their friend. I went to watch it and I can safely say that it was a masterpiece and an absolute delight to watch.
All three films of the Fate/stay night Heaven's feel trilogy were great but this one was better than the previous two films by a large margin. It had everything you want in a film. Great animation, Great storyline, great soundtrack, great battle choreography, breathtaking fight scenes, emotional moments and a great ending. This film was an overall great ending to the great Fate/ Stay night Heavens feel series just like the trailer said,"Fate has ended with a big hit."
Now I'm going to point out the PROS and the CONS(if there is one)
PROS-
1. Great animation
2. Great storyline
3. Thrilling story…

Anime has offered many amazing works of psychological and philosophical exploration. The medium is ripe for exploring these themes with the ability of animation to depict the surreal in ways live action cannot. These works demand a certain level of risk, as it's far easier to tell the audience what they want to hear rather than what they need to hear. Heaven's Feel feels like the excited musings of a young fan of this genre that thinks they're ready to join the ranks of the elite but lacks the modesty to understand they have much to learn. It wants to play with the big boys, but ultimately risks little. It can't seem to decide on any real focus or theme, but rather throws a half dozen at the screen mistaking quantity for quality. And ultimately, it's an unsatisfying mess of a trilogy

Just watched it last night and I want to preface this (non-spoiler) review by saying that I feel blessed to have been able to catch this in a cinema despite these unprecedented times. I hope that all Fate fans will get the opportunity to experience watching this in a cinema as the world recovers.
Story: Spring Song is the 3rd and final film in ufotable’s adaptation of the Heaven’s Feel route of Fate/stay night and it picks up exactly where the 2nd film left off. Heaven’s Feel is definitely the most unique and complex route of the 3 routes of Fate/stay night, even shedding light on backstory not revealed in the previous 2 routes. Compared to Fate and Unlimited Blade Works, can’t say I expected things to unfold the way they did when I read the VN. Heaven’s Feel is not my personal favourite…

First of all, would like to state that this film has popped my review cherry after hundreds of anime/movies watched. That in itself would mean of either two things, that it is terrible or that it is a masterpiece. Fortunately, it is the latter that is true. This masterpiece of a film has managed to make it my personal favourite route of the big three routes with three 2-hour films compared to two seasons of 20+ episodes each and one single 24 episodes anime. Now proceeding with the review.
‘Heaven’s Feel III: Spring Song’ the final part of the trilogy of the original visual novels with “Heaven’s feel” being the last to be animated and ‘Spring song’ being the third and final part of the “Heaven’s feel” movies by ‘Ufotable’ bringing the conclusion with it following after the previous two pa…

A perfect ending of stay night and heaven's feel you can hope for
