Fate/strange Fake -Susurros del Amanecer-
Trama
La ciudad de Fuyuki está bañada en un silencio fantasmal mientras la luna proyecta su pálida luz sobre las calles. El aire es pesado por la expectación, y los susurros del amanecer insinúan el comienzo de una nueva era. Esta no es una mañana cualquiera, ya que marca el inicio de una Guerra del Santo Grial: una batalla campal entre poderosos Magos y sus formidables Espíritus Heroicos. En este juego traicionero, hay mucho en juego y los premios son divinos. Los participantes, conocidos como Masters, han invocado a sus Servants, héroes legendarios de diferentes épocas y culturas, para que luchen en su nombre. Estos Servants poseen increíbles habilidades, nacidas de las almas colectivas de la humanidad, y no se detendrán ante nada para reclamar la victoria. A medida que la guerra continúa, el paisaje queda marcado por el brutal choque de magia y acero. Los Masters y sus Servants se enfrentan entre sí en una lucha desesperada por la supervivencia, y cada bando busca eliminar a la competencia y reclamar el Santo Grial. Este artefacto místico tiene el poder de conceder cualquier deseo, por grandioso o trivial que sea. En el centro de esta vorágine se encuentra Lord El-Melloi II, un astuto Master que ha estado fascinado durante mucho tiempo por las complejidades de la Guerra del Santo Grial. Su Servant, Sakura, la hermana de Rin Tohsaka, es una guerrera habilidosa con una destreza de combate sin igual. Juntos, se enfrentarán a una formidable variedad de oponentes, cada uno con sus propios secretos y motivaciones. A medida que la guerra se desarrolla, se forjan y rompen alianzas, y se reavivan antiguas rivalidades. El tejido de la realidad comienza a desmoronarse, amenazando con consumir todo a su paso. En medio de este caos, salen a la luz agendas ocultas e intenciones ulteriores, mientras los participantes luchan por mantener su control sobre el poder. Fate/strange Fake – Susurros del Amanecer – es una emocionante exploración de los aspectos más oscuros de la Guerra del Santo Grial, que profundiza en las complejidades de la naturaleza humana y las líneas borrosas entre el bien y el mal. Con su rico tapiz de personajes, intrincados giros argumentales y trepidantes secuencias de acción, esta película promete una experiencia inolvidable para los fans de la franquicia Fate y para los recién llegados por igual.
Reseñas
Lucy
Anime blockbuster! // It's all about that chuuni, pretentious, and cool vibe! // It might be silly, but you can't deny it's effectively intimidating.

The transitions are jarring, like being abducted by a UFO, especially when switching to and from the Berserker team's awkwardly cheerful slice-of-life moments that feel so out of place in a Holy Grail War. Sawano's soundtrack is also a mismatch; during the clash of Gilgamesh and Enkidu's Noble Phantasms, the bgm is some kind of electronic pop. I wonder if those two old heroes could even bear to listen to it. The Holy Grail War system is so well-designed and has such strong expansibility. It can definitely milk this franchise for at least another decade. After all, who can resist the simple joy of historical and mythological figures fighting each other?

The animation team is pure love! Enkidu is stunning in every single frame! The reunion of Gilgamesh and Enkidu after millennia, with their Noble Phantasms clashing, is both magnificent and romantic. There's not a single wasted shot or line in this entire sequence. When Enkidu softly says, "Although, greeting him here wouldn't be bad either," anyone with eyes can tell what kind of relationship these two share. (I hope they draw Gilgamesh's face properly in the main series; why put so many forehead wrinkles, marionette lines, and eye bags on such a handsome face? I'm begging you!)

As a 50-minute prologue, it offers a brief introduction to the characters and the summoning mishaps of the six participating teams. It culminates in an epic clash between Gilgamesh and Enkidu, concluding with an unexpected Saber's arrival. Compared to recent Fate works, this special episode showcases a significantly higher level of production quality. The change in character designer, moving away from the Takeuchi-esque faces, infuses the entire work with a sense of novelty. Having previewed the character roster, the level of the summoned heroic spirits rivals that of a Grand Order singularity. I am greatly anticipating the official TV series debut.

This made me tear up, but it's just a special episode?! How am I supposed to satisfy this surge of emotion? Waaah! Looking at the *Fate* series now, the themes are so classic, combining history, literature, and strategic battles. That's why it can be interpreted over and over again. But the ability to make each pairing so unexpected and imaginative is truly amazing! I was genuinely surprised by the Enkidu pair. I'm also very interested in the Nightmare and the female lead, Gilgamesh and the young girl, and Waver's student. The only thing missing now is a mature woman! And when Saber appeared at the end, I didn't even recognize Ono Yuki's voice!

The film delves into the intricate dance of power, desire, and morality in a world where wishes can be lethal. With its intricate narrative and complex characters, it challenges viewers to reflect on humanity's darkest impulses and the cost of ambition.
