Fate/strange fake (Free-Range Spoilers)

[Quoren]

I think most people think positively of it, but Narita has some writing quirks that can turn some people off from him in general.

[Samuka]

For me, it is the most fun read out of the spin offs of fate. I love it

[jennajayfeather]

I wouldn't be in Fate fandom if FSF didn't exist.

[RCM9698]

For me it's among the best parts of the franchise, and has some of its very best moments. However the ending tends to be what largely determines how a series is remembered, certainly for me. Opinions aside, it seems to one of the most popular spin-offs.

While speaking on the subject of the genius work that is fate strange fake, it seems there is a new trailer for the anime. I might be a type moon fan for a little more then a year but that doesn't mean i'm less in love with this story

[CO9p5JMGv!p9]

For being as B-grade shark novel it sure is good at producing some of my favorite characters

[harlequin320]

I personally love its mix of new/original characters with old characters and how they have taken the structure of a HGW and used it to tell these characters stories. I especially like what Narita has done with Flat. I have always found him an interesting yet mysterious character, it was great to delve more into his character. And lastly, I really like how Narita has not established a MC for FSF. He is trying to give them each equal time and development, which I appreciate. Hopefully the anime, which I am praying for a full season announcement at the end of this year's special, will follow suit and not choose a couple characters to zero in on and try to make the MCs.

I love Narita's work in general, he's a pretty goated writer. FSF being such a banger is no surprise.

[TreeLord]

To me FSF is the best fate work since Fate/Zero. Despite it being the typical grail war stuff they do a good job with filling it with interesting new ideas. I can’t wait to read the ending.

[XoJIJIoY]

To me FSF is all the good things fate franchise has to offer . The quintessential Fate, the Apocrypha done right

[Spartacus]

I keep flip floping between liking it and disliking it, but rereading it again it's exciting to read and the only ongoing TM work that I follow, so right now I like it.

[Arete]

To me it feels like an above average fanfic, rather than a proper work. It shows a lot of traits that fanfics have, such as introducing a lot of servants but not doing anything with them, and continually overcomplicating the situation. And I'd be remiss to not bring up how it incorporates both Fate and Tsuki world components, just cause that's what the author wanted. Sometimes I love it, sometimes I hate it. But I think I'd like it more of we had more of the characters in FGO already.

[Kirishima]

It's a great action B-movie funny fanfic, which is actually way better than what every other fate LN writer can deliver. It's not a masterpiece of writing but it's an entertaining action side show which is better than anything else we got.

[Samuka]

I call this "fate apopcrypha if it was done right". I still feel like we will get 12 to 14 volumes similar to durarara, but thats wishful thinking haha

[jennajayfeather]

I think it’s confirmed 10, but I’m hoping that’s still an estimate because to me it feels like there’s too many open ends to end in 2 vol. He did say the servants were going to drop fast though…

[Samuka]

Was this confirmed in the afterword or a tweet?

[jennajayfeather]

Afterword

[Quoren]

I'm pretty sure Narita and Nasu are bothers in being massive liars, so I wouldn't put too much stock into his overall stated plans. It's certainly not impossible for him to wrap up in two more volumes, but we still haven't had a single complete and absolute Servant death in 8 volumes (other than maybe Spooky, not sure if he dies doing what he does to Ishtar).
