When did you realize the Critics were wrong?
Critics are going to hate the HF movie, not UBW.

When the latest greatest "masterpiece" is always advocated by retarded and clueless LN/VN fanboys that liked things when they were 12 years old. Seriously it's always some otaku bait LN thing that is a "genius work" by "genius writers" and "genius musicians".

I know right, just look at Re:Zero.
>>142608896
Why's that?

There cannot be anime critics because no one wants to work in that industry in the art department.
Good writing in anime stopped existing in the mid-2000s. Every good anime after that has been an adaptation.

Too deep for them. It'll like BvS where the entire message flies over their heads.

Not even that anon but it is exactly that, I mean you it's fine to like Re:Zero but there are some people who really think the new generic #1000 LN adaptation is actually some kind of great work instead of being just generic garbage.

It is said that this show contains a story that fairly exudes passion, like that of a boys' manga. The honest hard work and affection - as well as the repeated energetic battles - of Shirou Emiya, the protagonist who strives to be a "champion of justice" certainly deserve to be called a successful formula, so it can't help but draw you in.
However, it is safe to conclusively state that Fate/stay night was more than that. This story, in which each character is caught up in the war and is fighting out of his own personal beliefs would by necessity never be wrapped up in a simplistic "the good are rewarded and the wicked are punished" ending. It depicts the theme of complex human relationships that can't be captured in thrilling action pieces alone ultimately coming to a head over their individual notions of justice, giving the piece nuance and profundity, as well as a sense of foreboding.
It could be said that Kinoko Nasu's writing, with its mix of rousingness and theatricality and elegance, was what made everything work. In pop culture in general, works like this that are both action pieces following an established formula while at the same time being suffused with complex conflict were rare indeed prior to Fate/stay night. That is why this title marked a turning point and remains as fresh and vibrant as ever. The appeal of this tale of a battle royale has been inherited by all of its derivative titles, starting with the aforementioned spinoff, and to be blunt, it has given rise to many followers that have surpassed the original. In a manner of speaking, this title has gone beyond the dimensions of sales or popularity and has altered the course of all pop culture that would follow. Fate/stay night was that big a deal.
