They haven't said anything, but I expect it to be Hakuno (male MC).
>>140202996
>This is going to be good.
>with Nero as Hakuno's servant
More like boring, they should have take this chance to make an adaptation with Altera, as the new servant that will arrive to the starters.
>>140204386
Why not both and then apir them with different servants?
If they are not using the same story they can easily put two programs in it whci hwil lturn to be split from one or some other kind of plot thing going.
And I would love a bit of variety here than get jsut another male MC who will get all the girls who show up on screen cause he is MC.
Would love a love triangle between two MCs over Gilgamesh or Archer, or Nero.
Excited for the Apo manga?
Best Fate related announcement
>>140204570
But they ARE using the vanilla Extra story as a base. I expect they'll throw in something from CCC, plus some of Nasu's twisted ideas.
>>140204386
Well I hope it's the female one, though I doubt it, because it would be something different. There's already Shiro for a male MC.

Synopsis
Waking up in a strange virtual world with no recollection of the past, Hakuno finds himself forced to fight for survival in a war he does not understand for a prize beyond value; the opportunity to have one's wish granted. With only an enigmatic "Servant" by his side, Hakuno Kishinami will have to face both friends and foes in battles to the death in order to not only gain possession of a mysterious object known as the "Holy Grail," but also to find the answer to the most important question of all: "Who am I?"

So, Hakuno. Male or female in the anime?
I'd prefer female, just for variety's sake.
>>140209065
Probably gonna be male though.
>>140209065
Why not both?
>>140203942

>>140209065

>>140209065
>I'd prefer female, just for variety's sake.
>female protag in Type-moon anime
No chance, they need their male MC x Saber clone with Rin as extra tsundere as safe approach for sales(pretty much it's certain we will also get that hot Nero x Rin room NTR scene).
I wouldn't mind getting second/side femMC and her getting her own route with different servant but that's impossible by now.

I'll continue to hold out for the Caster and FeMC to get paired up. Whether she gets her own show which would be great or just shows up in passing in this one, I'd be fairly satisfied with that.
Will this anime require having played CCC beforehand?Translation never ;_;
>>140216288
Probably not as it will probably stand on its own
>>140216288
Hopefully the anime will increase interest in the games, leading to the translation happening sooner one way or another.
>>140216277
This is the least likely thing considering Caster prefers men
>>140216596
In the latest Drama CD Caster had Hakuno wearing a school swimsuit with thigh highs because she liked them.
>>140216752
I consider the original game canon over a drama CD.
If there's a female MC, it'll almost certainly be with Archer, and it -should- be with Nero. Caster is the least likely and also the worst choice for her.
>>140214493
That's pretty funny given SoulTaker and the YuYu Hakusho episodes he did
>>140216586
But it'd be more effort now given that it's a PSP game and they'd probably have to port it
>a bunch of whores for servants
So this is gonna be some romcom shit?
>>140216775
FeMC and Nero work pretty well together, even moreso than Male Mc I believe. Only Caster is better suited for male mc.
>>140209258
Well if you look at it, the Hakuno in the first game would be Female considering her arch nemesis is Twice while male Hakuno for CCC since his arch nemesis is Kirara.
>>140216880
The game doesn't have any more RomCom than FSN.
Does anyone even like the Male MC?
Everyone I look I see nothing but Female Hakuno.
Pixiv is nothing but Female Hakuno. She's so popular she has pictures of Servants from outside Extra.
If they honestly go for Male Hakuno Shaft fucked up hard.
>>140216900
I agree, I just can't see Japan doing a mainstream anime with FemMC and a female servent
>>140216880
That's F/SN you're thinking of.
>>140216900
Nero worked well with either.
Archer is FemHakuno
Tamamo is MaleHakuno
Gilgamesh is MaleHakuno
These are the best pairings for maximum enjoyment in Extra.
>No archer in sight for anime or game
>>140216596
I don't think Caster gives half a shit about gender really. I think she even said that at some point. She does suggest the futa thing but that was half teasing half "maybe you would prefer it that way?" and a bit of that kind of mana transfer just being easier. She is really just a yandere striving to be the best waifu.
I can't imagine a male MC with Caster at all. I can see both male and female for Archer and Saber but just female for caster, though I still don't like the male MC even a little and I don't know why. He just seems boring in comparison, somehow. Probably because of how many bland male MC self inserts there are.
I am sure they will do male MC and I will be disappointed no matter which servant he has though, and yet will end up watching it anyway, so it doesn't really matter.
>>140217194
>I am sure they will do male MC and I will be disappointed no matter which servant he has though, and yet will end up watching it anyway, so it doesn't really matter.
This. I'll be upset and drop it every single week, but I'll still watch it and like it as well.
>>140202996
I need to see more but this looks annoyingly faithful to the game's bad art. Still better, though.
>>140217194
I think Japan would take more kindly to the "best wife" thing with a male MC, and she is the one who says it's "harder" to have a female master.
>>140217569
The harder part was in reference to mana transfer I believe, which is where she suggests using magic to do futa things.
>>140217735
The context of the scene wasn't specifically about mana transfer, that would require inference. Besides, I wouldn't think how "hard" it would be would matter that much if she's really all that insistent on being the perfect wife.
>>140217134
>Implying Archer and MaleHakuno wasn't the best combination

>>140217894

>>140203835
>>140217909
But compared to UBW, he can pretty much do whatever.
>>140217049
Everyone is just waifufaging
>>140218042
Official art seems to tend towards female Hakuno too.Also female Hakuno with Nero, which is why I think the duo is even slightly possible, though probably still a long shot.
>>140218130
>>140217850
Exactly, she doesn't really care. It only has one minor problem and it is hardly a problem, which can also be fixed with magic anyway.
And I can't think of any other reason having a female master would be harder for a female servant than having a male one. The implication was pretty clear to me.
Our entire discussion so far has revolved around a single conversation, one that is unique in the caster route as far as I can recall for being the only moment the MC's gender is relevant in any way and it can easily be avoided, even though I am pretty sure it does not have any impact on her route. That is how little caster gives a shit about gender, which is just slightly less than the other servants in extra care about it.
>>140218178
>>140218257
>which is just slightly less than the other servants in extra care about it.
Slightly more you mean, considering the other servants don't even have unique dialogue that in any way suggests that it would be more difficult for them since the protagonist is a specific gender. Caster is the only one that has dialogue like that. Thus the implication that she does give a shit, while the other servants do not.
I think you're seeing what you want to see instead of what's actually there.
>>140218358
Whoops, wrong image.
>>140218358
Nero specifically mentions what they like, and archer is... actually I don't know how gay archer is or isn't. I just assume he is mostly not gay since we know who he was beforehand.
And I don't think you have seen the actual dialogue from that scene, because she makes it pretty clear she doesn't care.
>>140218492
Nero's preference is beauty. Caster's thing is very minor, and yes, in the end she will want to jump the MC's bones no matter whether it's he/she. It is worth pointing out that Caster is the one who has a line that could indicate that she thinks it'd be easier to have a male master than a female one, however irrelevant you consider it to be.
Likewise, if we had to pin a preference on Nero--which is difficult, because like Caster, she'd be fine with either--she'd be the one who prefers other women.
>>140218130
>>140218178
>>140218358
They're so adorable together, I can't stand it
>>140217049
Female Hakuno ranked nearly 50 places higher than Male in the TM Character Poll
>>140217049
I don't particularly mind Male Hakuno, since the only difference between him and Female Hakuno is the design. Well, at least as far as the original Extra is concerned. There are notable differences in CCC, but in extra they're just both kinda dull people who occasionally act like cheeky cunts.
>>140202996
>>Tell Nasu to do whatever he wants with the story

Didn't Nasu running wild with a story produce CCC?
>Tell Nasu to do whatever he wants with the story
He will add Arthuria. Mark my words.
>>140220341
I don't get all the hype over Caster, she's the worst one to play, has the dullest NP, and the more boring otaku-bait personality.
>>140220414
Why would he? Nasu doesn't even like Arturia much.
>>140202996
>>Tell Nasu to do whatever he wants with the story
No amount of budget can save it anymore
>>140220458
>she's the worst one to play
She's the only one who provides even a modicum of challenge and strategic gameplay (though after level 25~ she just stunlocks everything to hell).
>has the dullest NP
None of the three servants have particularly interesting NPs, effect-wise.
>>140220577
F/E isn't a difficult game by any standard, Caster just feels weaker than the others early on. I guess that qualifies as challenging? To play something clearly inferior?
At least Archer's and Saber's noble phantasms look good and have nice music. Caster's is just all-around underwhelming. She even admits as much in CCC.
>>140220732
>Caster's is just all-around underwhelming.
It lets her dish out a whole lot more damage in a single round than the other Servants when used correctly, though.
>>140221244

>>140202996
JUST FUCK MY SERVANT UP
>>140209065
So, will Hakuno choose to side with Rin or Rani?Honestly, who the fuck sided with Rani for reasons other than to fight Arc?
>>140202996
Problem with shaft is the direction not the story.
The sicodelic backgrounds short scenes changing out of order and glibberish just doesn't work with all type stories.
>>140222292
AQUA-SAMA SUGOI!
>>140222477
Pretty sure they don't do that for every show
>>140222477
It'll be perfect for the Dungeons in Fate/Extra, though. Shaft's style in general is pretty suited for capturing the extremely-real-yet-not-quite nature of the virtual reality within the Moon Cell and how Hakuno's perception occasionally short-circuits and goes nuts.
>>140202996

>>140224160
Game design isn't patchwork. The game is designed as whole.
>>140223991
I thought CCC turned her into an 4th-wall breaking joke character
I hope Gawain gets animated fuck if they are making a new story I'm scared
The problem with a male MC is that that's just Bland Shirou
>>140224529
The MC in Extra is the most self-insert character ever regardless of sex. A quiet nerd with a few cheeky comments here and there who mostly goes along with the flow of the story without much agency.
>>140224349
She is even more broken than Gil in CCC too thank to her balls busting move
>>140224669
Honestly I expect the anime to change this, it worked well enough in the game but I expect them to give the MC more personality in Last Encore, specially if they want people to care about the ending.
>>140221570
>Implying there's anything left of a fight after a Caladbolg spam
Shaft needs a female MC who isn't a prepubescent girl
>>140224349
Yes, and it's great because CCC absolutely does not take itself seriously.
Also it bears reiteration: she can kick people in the balls.
>>140224943
CCC's Sakura Route was better than Heaven's Feel IMO
They should troll everyone and make this show about the unseen Berserker route.

Nah, Hakuno has more personality than about half of all JRPG protags. Which isn't much, but still something.
>>140218018
Forced animation
>>140231262
Hakuno's main personality is determination and looking ahead, no matter what happens. Guy will just keep trucking and never angst no matter what happens. Literally a perpetual motion machine.

>>140239798
Without Arturia, Shirou wouldn't have been nothing though. Part of why he becomes a Hero of Justice isn't even Kiritsugu but because of Arturia and her shining example. EMIYA can't even recall most things except meeting her that night.
He would also be dead, because Lancer injured him and he only healed because Arturia was summoned and Avalon kicked in. Arturia is like Kiritsugu a figure that defines Shirou, whatever you think of their romance is irrelevant, she's his greatest mentor.

That honestly bothers me. I kind of would liked some consistency with the composers for FSN for once.

sounds like you haven't watched enough Shaft shows

I honestly wanted Fukasawa to do HF. He worked so nicely with character themes in UBW that I want to see him give conclusions or remixes of them in HF.

Sounds like you need to watch shows from other studios if you really believe SHAFT has consistent animation quality.
>>140255791
Yeah, I mean it's weird. If you watched UBW, Sakura even had a theme, and I assumed it would have gotten more exposure in the movies. It's annoying that all the groundwork is gone now.
Unless Kajiura works in the themes from the show, which I guess wouldn't be impossible, since her music from Zero ended up being used a few times in UBW.
>>140255883
Problem was that the Zero themes were remixed by Kajiura herself by what I would assume to be under Fukasawa's supervision or request. Plus they were only used in the first 3 episodes as well.
Unless Fukasawa is very involved here in supervision or they are just using Kajiura's name to advertise (ie Kajiura only remixes a zero theme again and leaves for Fukasawa to take over), then those themes in UBW are thrown away and gone. About the advertising bit, I only guessed that from how the BD OST was labelled with Kajiura's name on it and Fukasawa's nowhere despite Fukasawa doing major work of the OST.Plus my most major fear is that Kajiura will make HF and Zero feel closer with her remixes that in semblance, HF is advertised as Zero's "true successor" rather than a parallel route of UBW
I hope we get Rider
How mad will Fatefags be when SHAFT shits completely on the source material to add their Shinbo approved inside jokes and neck tilts?I honestly can't wait for the innevitable SHAFTfag vs Fatefag shitstorm

It could be nice if she doesn't phone it in like with the KnK films.
If it's another F/Z with only a few decent songs, it'll be terrible.

Don't see how that would work out well, unless they heavily change the script. The biggest fault of getting into Zero before HF is the fact that it spoils half of everything that happens.
Zerofags are gonna be real disappointed when they realize HF is going to be about uncovering mysteries they got answers to in the first episode of the show.
In regards to the music though, it's just weird. Fukasawa was even just did the music for the Garden of Avalon drama CD, and used some of his ideas from the show too, so I don't think they just like, fired him or something.

Good thing I do

It's gonna be original stuff anyway
>>140256255
Nasu is rewriting it so that won't be a problem.
