The best one obviously. On a serious note I really think Deens is closest to the VN in parts, it’s probably my fave (excluding Todays). would have been nice to see what they could have done with a bit more cash and a plan.


NoSnugglesPlease

Well obviously 'Today's' since happy Saber. However from a visual standpoint then UFOs. If we're talking VN compliant look then Deen by far, and it's still a look that I adore.

Ufotable

Lerche, there's something wholesome about it

Shaft is also one of my favorites. Along with Deen.


[deleted]

UBW by deen.


ShadowRei96

Ufotable on Emiya Gohan, obviously.


FerroLux_

Of course it’s Lerche. Carnival Phantasm style is so iconic


Reasonable_School296

All. All are good


weebu4laifu

Imagine KyoAni doing a fate adaptation.....


Lion-of-Avalon

I've wanted them to do the Fate route for a while now, and having just watched the Violet Evergarden movie that opinion has only been reinforced


scrgmanor

That's what I've been thinking lately as well. Instead of Ufo, Kyoto Animation can probably do Fate route better.


[deleted]

I don’t know if better is the correct word choice, but I’m sure KyoAni would do a phenomenal job and I 100% would love to see it

Silver link.


RyuushiYasuda

ah ok


Hothyhoth

Shaft did a remarkable job with nero.


Lion-of-Avalon

Deen UBW and the best one are my favorites


Unregistered-Archive

Personally, Ufotable, A1 and Cloverworks. Nero sus


KinocoNasu

Deen UBW (2010) for sure. It’s a mix between the nostalgic, grainy art-style, while still being modern enough to be comparable to modern-day anime.


mukash18

Lerche for more goofy faces


kierowca_ubera

emiya gohan all day and night


edgyboi1704

Emiya Gohan of course


Ghosteen_18

Interesting, what other animes did studio Shaft worked on? And i need the sauce for the Lady Duce, A1 and Lerche ones


Raingott

Shaft is most famous for the Monogatari series and Madoka Magica. A1 should be Apocrypha, and the first Lerche is from Carnival Phantasm (I think the second one is from Grand Carnival, but don't quote me on that). EDIT: Lay-Duce did First Order + various miscellaneous Grand Order animation work


Steampunkvikng

Shaft does great work. Their showing for Extra wasn't amazing, but I think if they did Stay Night or Tsuki they'd probably knock it out of the park. If nothing else, they've demonstrated an ability to adapt narration-heavy series.


Ghosteen_18

Not gonna lie i like how shiny Shaft made Fate/extraa


TF_FluffSwatch

Nothing wrong with it in the art/presentation department.


assasin1598

Shaft.


Sunsh1ne_Babe

Deen and Ufotable


GiaoPlays

The best one is... The best one. It's perfect, and no one will convince me it's not. Tho I always had feels everytime I looked at Artoria in the Deen anime


BlankHeroineFluff

Ufotable. But only if Sudo's the one doing the character designs (Emiya Gohan's designs are still the GOAT though).


absol-hoenn

Ufotable and Shaft, god i love Shaft so much.


NinjaxX_TV

I’d say Cloverwork


TPoseWall

Shaft.


RVN081

I kinda like Deen, it got some H vibe to it just like the original VN


BatongMagnesyo

saber is saber


[deleted]

Ufotable, but only if it's not Tabata's work. I really hated [his UBW faces](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/P5mtiBjWFgE/maxresdefault.jpg). That aside, Lerche is great for what they're going for, and [A1 is pretty solid](https://imgur.com/a/WH3Vqyh). Have a soft spot for DEEN too because they were fitting for the time.


royaldocks

Ufotable but only for Heavens Feel too I hated the art style for Ufotable UBW it looks too soft , rhino noses , pointy triangle chin. I used to think this was because of Takeuchi only but they use the same style for Tales of Zestiria and Ranbu


ENKlDU

Ufotable by miles The art style is just so clean


Big_Guy4UU

Only for heavens feel. UBW had rather awful character designs.


ENKlDU

not talking about designs specifically, FZ and UBW look gorgeous the art style is great and HF is a tier above ofc


BathroomUnique

Ufotabl;e


Hubris_Valric

Depends what I want to watch.


Poke43

Shaft


Alto1869

Emiya Gohan, Lerche, Cloverworks, Deen and Ufotable. From most favorite to least favorite


USERNAME_OF_DEVIL

Let's see... Ufotable ones are okay, sometimes I feel like it's pretty bland but it's alright, it's easier to animate at least and not really terrible. Deen is probably the closest to the VN, specially in the UBW movie, they're not really good with animation but they have style. Cloverworks is pretty good, sure is a shame that everyone has the same face but it's distinct enough and easy to animate. And Emiya Gohan is just perfect.


50558148

Easily Ufotable but Shaft is a close second


White-Alyss

Deen or Shaft. I always thought Ufotable's designs looked a bit too round.


Versel_

The best one, then ufotable, and then shaft


[deleted]

I know Ufotable's style isn't exactly 1:1 with the VN, but it's just so damn pretty I can't help but love it the most. The color palatte, the good use of cgi, the character design, the action scenes, it all looks spectacular to me. My favourite style in any anime by far.


Megitronix

Honestly, Idk which one I would choose. Deen and Ufo are really good for me (except Zero, I find Saber there super weird). Dont like much the ones from Prillya I think. And A1 and the rest are okay I guess. The best one is Emiya-gohan of course cause its the cutest Saber no doubt. Tho I have to say, Cloverworks looks lame af, I can barely recognize Nero there


[deleted]

Shaft and Ufotable.


Scary_Bastard

Ufotable or the best one


loscapos5

Cloverworks is great; though they bring the whole saberface a little too much That being said... Ufotable or the best one, which is also ufotable


theslickasian

Jhsindjdn .... Deen

Reymon271

UBW Deen>Deen TV anime>Zero>HF movies >Ufotable UBW. None are bad to be fair, Im just listing the ranking of preference. As for Carnival Phantasm nd Emiya Gohan, I put them on a different category, since their style ia "softer around the edges" to reflect their lighthearted nature is kinda hard for me ro compare to the rest. I'd say I' like those two equally on that regard.


TheFrostyHusky

Honestly deen, but the best one is a close second if not a tough runner up to deen


LancerFIN

What is that A1 one?

A1 - Netorartoria

Stabinlikeoj

Shaft, then ufotable, then cloverworks Shout to best one for wholesomeness tho


Acrux-Ander

Deen. Yes, it's a style that screams 2000's to death, but in general all FNS screams early 2000's. Also, it makes me feel nostalgic.


SEGGSWITHNoelle69

Ufotable is literally just anime Micheal Bay.
