Unlimited Blade Works Movie Comparison [Spoilers]

This isn’t really a review of the movie but more or less a comparison of the visual novel game to the recently released movie as well as a little bit of insight of what I think about the movie. This post is filled to the brim with spoilers so if you haven’t seen the movie yet and do not wish to spoil the story please do not read any further. ^.^

I’ll start off by saying that I like how the studio stayed true to the visual novel, although the scenes may not be exactly the same you can still see they draw their inspiration from the game’s scenes. I have a itching feeling that I may have missed a few but majority of the main ones are there which is good enough for me.

They thankfully skipped all the pleasentries at the beginning rather than drag on for 30 mins introducing characters and such. Assuming that they aimed the movie at people who are familar with the Fate/Stay Night series we can jump straight to the action packed scenes. For those who aren’t familar it is best you read up on the different routes here or watch the Fate/Stay Night anime series.
