Minor spoilers
First of all I have to start with saying that this anime isn't for everyone. This is the episode 0 of the upcomming Fate/GO babylonia arc which is the seventh singularity in the Fate/GO mobile game.
This episode is aimed at the Fate fans who have been waiting patiently for there to be a real anime adoptation of the fate/go series and from what i saw in this teaser, my expectation went even higher.
The episode is mainly a prequel to the Fate/GO movie and shows the story of Dr. Roman as he was taking care of Mash during her earlier years. The episode is... packed with easter eggs from the game, things such as evo items etc.
We also get to see a complation of the previous singularites which was a real treat for me as a Fate/GO fan, and i can't wait until the next episode releases in October

GOD DAMN YOU TAKEUCHI
.... Is all I have to say for this.
The Saberface issue aside, I'm glad the money I spent on FGO wasn't all in vain.
Now, before you go IDK WTF IS GOING ON HERE??!! WHAT IS THIS CRAP??!! This isn't meant for all viewers. Mainly those who do not play FGO. So, if you want to watch and understand it because you're a big Fate fan, or was attracted by the beautiful animation, then be prepared to read through 6 chapters of content which would probably take hours to complete (and frustration too. *cries in Camelot).
OK, now for the review. (Contains major FGO... spoilers)
10/10 really. Finally get to see what Marisbury looks like and boy does he look like another friggin' Saberface (again, damn you Takeuchi). Dr. Roman's scenes really made me cry. And the scene where Marisbury asked Caster about his wish really hit me deep.
All in all, it was a really great prequel and recap. Especially the beginning part where Mash was fused with Galahad. Have really high expectations for the actual anime.
Also, good luck on your summer rolls fellow FGO players.

Fate/Grand Order: Zettai Majuu Sensen Babylonia - Initium Iter Checklist
Story- Who needs story when you have waifus? Check
Dialogue - 90% exposition dumping with Pseudo-philosophical conversations to hide the lack of character depth for these cardboard cutouts? Check
Characters/Character desings - All main waifu/husbando cardboard cutouts given enough detail to look presentable with little to no care put into any other empty shells on screen? Check
Animation - over done action scenes with no weight mixed with static shots of characters sitting and talking with no unnecessary amount of movement to make them feel as little as human as possible? Bonus points for CGI... fire the looks like trash* Check
Sound - Boring VAs trying and failing to bring any personality into these husks of characters mixed with the over done action sound effects that last all of 4 mins before 20 mins of sitting and dumping? - Super Check
Enjoyment - Another year another shit Fate shill to give new waifus and husbandos
3/10
