Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With a short run with a modest audience, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for sci-fi fans, action fans and animation lovers.
The mood: Exciting.
The pace: 2 seasons: a few weeks of evenings, short, snackable episodes, about 10 hours in all.
What might put you off: Rated TV-MA: meant for adults.
It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

The Fourth Holy Grail War has begun, and seven mages must summon heroes from history to battle each other to the death. Only one mage-and-hero pair will remain to claim the Grail and have their wishes granted! Kiritsugu Emiya was once an assassin but now fights in this war to save the world from those who would destroy it with the Grail’s power.
