Here is the newest trailer for Fate/strange Fake:

All of the content will appear in the first episode. It shows off the various Servants and Masters participating in the Snowfield Holy Grail War. Characters like Flat and Caster appear, as well as familiar faces such as Gilgamesh and Enkidu. There is also a brief shot of Ayaka and Saber’s first meeting, which parallels the signature scene of Saber greeting Shirou for the first time.

Aniplex announced in 2023 that it was producing a TV series based on Fate/strange Fake. This news came after the “Whispers of Dawn” OVA. The TV series will cover a bit of what the OVA did, but with more detail, as well as show what happens afterwards.

As for Fate/strange Fake, it is a spin-off light novel series penned by Ryogo Narita. Narita is a light novelist and manga writer whose original works include Durarara!! and Baccano!. The story of Fate/strange Fake follows a faulty Holy Grail War in Nevada. As an unsuccessful copy of the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki, the one in Nevada has some bizarre aspects to it, such as a missing Saber class and a blurred definition of what a hero is.

The anime adaptation of Fate/strange Fake will premiere at the end of 2024. Technically speaking, for a limited time, you can watch the English dub of the first episode on Crunchyroll’s YouTube channel.
