About Fate/stay night

Fate/stay night was originally developed as a visual novel by TYPE-MOON in 2004. The game was an instant hit among the Japanese visual novel community. Now, a decade after the launch of this successful franchise, this epic tale is reborn by the hands of one of Japan’s top animation production studios, ufotable (Fate/Zero, the Garden of sinners) as a masterpiece that can be enjoyed by fans both old and new.

Fuyuki City—a city surrounded by the sea and mountains becomes the setting for an ancient ritual. Seven masters are given control of heroic spirits in order to realize the mythical Holy Grail, which is said to grant its owner any wish. These heroic spirits or servants represent legendary heroes of various classes: “Saber,” “Lancer,” “Archer,” “Rider,” “Caster,” “Assassin,” and “Berserker.” Each master will enter into a contract with their chosen servants and battle the others to the death until only one pair remains…This is the “Holy Grail War.”

Caster successfully abducts Saber from Shirou. Shirou isn’t a Master any longer without the Command Seals, however, he is determined to get Saber back from Caster. With help from Rin, Shirou infiltrates the Einzbern Castle to convince Illyasviel to become their ally. But, they find her and Berserker already fighting a battle to the death against Gilgamesh.

While the Holy Grail War advances, Shirou continues to search for a reason to be a hero of justice.
