About the story
The Holy Grail War is a ritual held in Fuyuki City by magi grasping to reach the Root. Seven magi, known as Masters, gather to compete over possession of the Holy Grail, which possesses the power to fulfill any of its bearer's wishes. They fight other Masters for supremacy by summoning Heroic Spirits, known as Servants, called upon by the Holy Grail. However, throughout the past four Holy Grail Wars, history has yet to see a single victor. During the Fourth Holy Grail War ten years ago, Shirou Emiya was saved from amidst the fires of war by the self-proclaimed mage Kiritsugu Emiya. The young Shirou started living with Kiritsugu and persistently asked for instruction in magecraft, much to the mage's disapproval. On the night prior to Kiritsugu's death, Shirou promised his adoptive father that he'll become a Hero of Justice. Fast forward to the present. On one quiet eve, Shirou gets involved in the Holy Grail War and is assailed by a Servant. Just as the glint of steel threatens to take his life, a girl clad in knightly armor appears to stop the fatal attack. The Servant, who came to the rescue of the would-be Hero of Justice, and the Master, saved by the Heroic Spirit of the Sword; their fates are in motion...

A great starting point for Fate fans, and a beautiful remaster for existing ones. Though it suffers from the wordiness that plagues Nasu's earlier work, it's a beautiful and compelling story of ideals, reality, and magic.

Considering the success of the series in the whole world, it's curious that only now Fate/Stay Night Remastered brings to the west the visual novel that kickstarted the franchise. Be it as it may, the important part is that we finally can enjoy this incredible story, with its unique universe and captivating characters. Though the additions to the new version could have been more significant, it continues to be practically a must in the library of anyone who enjoys big adventures, even being an entry point to the genre.
