Yeah as the series went on it felt like they opted out of stuff like the first 2 episodes and tried to play it too safe. Those first 2 episodes though holy poo poo.

I also learned that KIng Gainer is very loosely based off a 97 book series https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Compagnie_des_glaces

I played FSN and Tsukihime god knows how long ago (12-13 years maybe????) and I’ve just been kinda bemused as Fate got loving massive somehow. I haven’t played or watched anything past Realta Nua and the cooking show. I heard Zero was worthwhile but I just didn’t care when it came out. Is the extended universe any good?

I haven’t played or watched anything past Realta Nua and the cooking show. I heard Zero was worthwhile but I just didn’t care when it came out. If you have no interest in playing a mobile game you could look up the cutscenes and such on youtube. I do really recommend it, though, there's some exceptional stuff in there once you get past the kinda dull early chapters. Be sure to watch the events, too, if you do decide to go this route. Heck, even if you play it, look up the events you missed. Fate/Hollow Ataraxia is an incredible sequel to FSN and something I highly recommend, it has a lot of great content that expands on the cast of FSN and also very good original characters with their own plot. It's my favorite thing in the franchise. It's a direct sequel to FSN though (sort of) so if you played FSN 12-13 years ago it might be worth skimming the Let's Play or something. Fate/Extra is fine. Not great, but fine. The combat is terrible but the writing is okay and there's some extremely good characters. It's getting a remake though, so just wait for that. Fate/Extra CCC is very, very good but is not translated. It may get a remake after Fate/Extra's remake. Fate/Extella is a terrible Warriors clone with an overly long and wordy plot. It has some decent scenes but is overall not worth it. Fate/Extella Link is a good Warriors clone with basically no plot to speak of. It's worth it if you like Warriors games and can find it for 20-30 bucks. Fate/Apocrypha has some likable characters but the protagonist is kinda dull and it has so many characters that not everyone gets enough screentime or a strong resolution. It's fine for what iti s, but it's more like a B-Grade shonen with some impressive animation in parts than anything amazing. Case Files is mostly a sequel about one of Fate/Zero's main characters and is fairly useless if you don't know the character. It's a decent enough series if you do like the character, though. Fate/Zero is... Fate/Zero. I think it goes out of its way to screw over most of its female cast but it has impressive production values and is a fairly gripping thriller in the moment, even if a lot of it feels pretty hackneyed if you sit down and look at it. my broader issue is that it lacks basically any element of humor when so much of Fate is characterized by humor. F/Z is completely stonefaced, so it feels kind of exhausting. If you like overly self-serious thrillers well enough then it's decent at being one of those, though. Carnival Phantasm is an extremely funny gag anime that I highly recommend if you have any attachment to Fate or Tsukihime at all. So overall: There's some very good stuff, some okay stuff, and a couple of things that aren't really worth your time. If I had to pick two things I'd definitely say check out Carnival Phantasm and Fate/Hollow Ataraxia, Fate/Grand Order is a lot to take in and comes with the obvious mobage caveats, plus the caveat of having a pretty rough start, but is worth it if you do feel like putting up with those things.

Watch Zero, so you can watch the spinoff where the kid from Zero is a wizard/professor/detective.

I haven’t played or watched anything past Realta Nua and the cooking show. I heard Zero was worthwhile but I just didn’t care when it came out. If you liked the original VN, its sequel Fate/hollow ataraxia finally got translated and IMO it's the best Fate-related product there's been. Characters that were throwaways or undercooked in the original get far more time to shine and it's probably the funniest the series has ever been while also having a lot of heart. It's what pretty much established, more so than the original in a lot of ways, what Fate is really like. Fate/Zero is a notable show for being the Fourth Holy Grail War talked about often in the original VN, following Kiritsugu. It's an arguably important touchpoint in the overall Fate lore as it introduced a lot of characters who have been very important in subsequent works (such as Waver) and is pretty popular. I personally think it's a story that has aged quite badly and think less of it as time has gone but it's probably worth experiencing if you have any interest in the worldbuilding of Fate in general. Today's Menu for the Emiya Family is pure fluff but it's absolutely great if that's what you want. Carnival Phantasm was a gag show that pulled in multiple T-M works that varied in quality but had some pretty funny parts at times. Fate/Extra and its sequel CCC were mediocre-playing JRPGs that established the Moon Cell as a setting for HGWs and introduced a massive number of important characters and concepts that have propagated throughout Fate stuff since then. CCC is talked about by some as one of the best stories Nasu has written but it's only partially translated. Extra is getting a remake that will hopefully play a lot better so it'll be something that can be recommended more confidently. I'll throw in Extella and Extella Link here which are musou sequels of a sort but I have no experience with them, most people don't seem to really like them that much except for IIRC Link. Fate/Apocrypha was mediocre but did introduced a few interesting concepts and characters. Case Files follows Waver from Zero. I didn't like it as much as I hoped but I think the setting is neat, it's one of the only times we've gotten an in-depth look at the "proper" world of Mages in Fate. Finally, Fate/Grand Order is the gacha game and has blackhole consumed the vast majority of Fate-related conversations in recent years. It took a long while to get good writing-wise but I do think it eventually came into its own and became pretty compelling. Honestly there's so much to unpack on FGO, both good and bad, that it kind of warrants a whole separate conversation. Like I'm pretty into it but I don't know if I'd actually recommend someone who is completely clean of it that they should try it out themselves.

Redline is pretty alright too from what I've read, I think if you like Baccano and Fate you'd like Strange Fake, and I've never read Requiem and I don't think it has an english translation.

Hollow Ataraxia is mandatory reading if you like f/sn. Don't pay money to watch Zero is my advice.
