Fate Watch Order: How to Watch All Seasons and Movies

For newcomers, the easy route is ufotable's key works in release order: Fate/Zero, then Unlimited Blade Works and the Heaven's Feel trilogy; the spin-offs can be watched afterward if you like. Many fans of the visual novel recommend starting with Unlimited Blade Works and saving Fate/Zero (a prequel that reveals a number of secrets) for later; the 2006 series is a dated adaptation of the novel's first route.
