If you want to follow the “proper” order, you should watch first Fate/Zero, then Fate/Stay Night UBW from ufotable (not the movie version) and finally the movie Fate/Stay Night: Heaven’s Feel. However, ufotable put a lot of references in FSN: UBW that will fly over your head if you haven’t watched Fate/Zero.
So if you want to watch the Fate anime series in order you need to follow this:
The Fate series is a TYPE-MOON media collective that follows various events called Holy Grail Wars that involve Masters, generally accomplished magi, summoning Servants, Heroic Spirits, and battling each other until the last remaining pair can claim the purported Holy Grail. It began with the visual novel, Fate/stay night, ...
It began with the visual novel, Fate/stay night, and has since ga thered a number of prequels, sequels, spin-offs, and adaptations bearing the same "Fate" name.
While many may argue that certain versions are wastes of time or that it’s better to watch everything chronologically, here’s my reasoning: Fate’s story revolves around the Holy Grail War, an epic battle royale in which mages summon legendary figures from across history to fight for the wish-granting power of the Holy Grail itself.
However, Fate/Stay Night was originally a visual novel (an interactive story with branching paths), so the plot itself depended on the love interest the player chose near the start of the game resulting in a unique sequence of events, called a “route”.
Ufotable will also be producing a film trilogy based on the Heaven’s Feel route (beginning in 2017) which will probably also be its own thing. Since Heaven’s Feel is the least accessible route of the original visual novel, I’d still recommend you watch everything prior in order to prepare yourself. So in summary:
Fate/Zero is a prequel to the events of Fate/ Stay Night, beginning as a light novel series before being adapted into an anime series by Studio Ufotable between 2011 and 2012. In contrast to the previous entries, Fate/Zero is an excellent series! The use of digital post-processing employs all manner of hues and patterns of light diffusion ...
Fate/Zero once again takes place in Fuyuki City, a decade before the events of Fate/stay night. As this setting implies, Fate/Zero serves as the prequel to Shirou's adventures. This time around, Kiritsugu Emiya becomes a participant of the Fourth Holy Grail War.
Events of Fate/EXTRA Last Encore starts hazy, and that's by intention. In this anime, Hakuno Kishinami wakes up in a strange world accompanied only by a Servant. With no recollection of his past, he somehow apparently has to win the Holy Grail War and, hopefully, regain his identity in the process.
2 Fate/Grand Order - Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia (Anime, 2019) In Babylonia, Chaldea's Ritsuka and Mash travel in time to Mesopotamia in 2655 B.C. Their goal is to fix the Singularity in this era to prevent the Earth's destruction in 2016 - only for a monster-besieged region to surprise them.
Fate/Zero serves as a great third piece of media to bridge the main Fate/stay night story and its spinoffs. After Fate/Zero, fans may also choose to play the /stay night sequel, /hollow ataraxia.
Surprisingly, their journey ends when the world is about to end, in 2016. Ritsuka and Mash need to stop Solomon's plans once and for all.
This anime adaptation stars Shirou Emiya, the sole survivor of an incident that engulfed an area in Fuyuki City in flames. A decade later, Shirou keeps himself busy by the day with schoolwork and some odd jobs. Meanwhile, he also secretly practices basic magic taught by his late adoptive father, Kiritsugu.
Unbeknownst to him, Sakura has a mysterious past connected not just to the Holy Grail War as a whole, but to the entity that has begun killing off the War's participants. As with UBW , the Heaven's Feel films explore the titular route in the VN, where Sakura becomes Shirou's leading lady.
The original is a game with branching plot (“visual novel”) called Fate/Stay Night . It has 3 big routes (ways the events can develop): Stay Night, Unlimited Blade Works and Heaven’s Feel. The game forces you to play it in that specific order, and that is on purpose. The best option would be to start by playing that game.
Mages, called Masters, summon legendary figures, called Servants, and engage in battle in an attempt to win The Holy Grail. (Not the Jesus version) The Holy Grail has the power to grant it’s owner (Whomever wins the war) any wish. So it’s kind of a big deal. The one involved in Fate Zero is the 4th Holy Grail War.
Champloo means “mixed up” or “Stir-fry”. Its full of action, comedy, sword fighting and hip hop.
2. Death Note: (Master-Mind) Death note is one of the best anime to come out for a long time. An intelligent high school student (Light Yagami) goes on a secret crusade to eliminate criminals from the world after discovering a notebook capable of killing anyone whose name is written into it.
Unlimited Blade Works is adapted twice - to a movie and to a TV series. Honestly, the only reaso. The original is a game with branching plot (“visual novel”) called Fate/Stay Night. It has 3 big routes (ways the events can develop): Stay Night, Unlimited Blade Works and Heaven’s Feel.
Fate/Extra is a good game, though. So I recommend playing it.) Fate/Grand Order: First Order (This is the start of the anime adaptation of the Fate/Grand Order video game. I recommend waiting till the other anime adaptations are released before watching it, so you can watch them in the correct order.)
The Fate series has become one of the largest and most popular multimedia franchises in Japan. Starting with the Fate/stay night visual novel released back in 2004, the franchise has grown tremendously in the near two decades since. There has been a boom in Fate related media.
The anime has four seasons, with a fifth on the way and an anime film. Though things start off light hearted, the plot eventually picks up.
While the original series wasn’t light-hearted by any means, it had moments of repose. With Zero, things hit the fan and they never quite come down. Be it its engaging narrative, solid animation or diverse cast of characters – Zero delivers in every way, and is the most exceptional Fate anime because of that.
Of all the entries thus far, Carnival Phantasm might be the most drastically different of the Fate series anime. It’s a parody of all things Type-Moon, but essentially focuses on Fate/stay night and Tsukihime characters.
Loosely based on the Fate/Extra series, Last Encore isn’t the best adaptation in the series. But it does have its positives. Sadly those don’t outweigh the show’s negatives – mainly a rushed and convoluted plot that doesn’t serve the source material well at all.
Staring off with the original adaptation, the Studio Deen anime is a bit of a mixed bag. Though it isn’t a terrible anime – it isn’t on part with the Ufotable adaptations in terms of animation quality and respect for the source material.
