Welcome to Smarty Pants folks! This ones gonna be a doozie! Didnt play the VN... I got the experience well enough from the anime! Lets just say not even the double points dance could save this atrocity because 0 x 2.5 is still ZERO. Just like the amount of braincells you will have by the end of watching or playing this corny dogshit mess of a series. Coincidentally idiot dumbass smooth brained Shitrou also has no braincells! Hes so mentally challenged i bet he couldnt even get a question "CORRECT!" in the "GAMES!" category something even a madman could do! Well at least they were consistent with something! If this criticism seems harsh "SORRY!" Not really though. Fate Stay Night is "TOO BAD!" to write anything really meaningful to it. But ill try my best to summarize this shitshow I will "NARROW IT DOWN!" to dumbass shounen boy who sucks at everything to do in the show but his personality is watered down to: i help people i protect gurl when im an incompetence jackass! Oh he helps people because of survivers guilt? And it shows that his ideal of saving everyone as horribly idiotic makes him a hypocrite? "RIGHTY-OH!" But if his dream is wrong then why is the series making it out that hes right? How did he even get survivers guilt if a fucking building fell on him? Whats he gonna do if hes stronger? Fight buildings and fire? Shitrou is repeatedly idiotic and mentally challenged yet stumbles into solutions all the same! This is the person who beats Gilgamesh the most powerful warrior but also says the line: people die when they are killed? He beats archer because he says his idiotic ideal is right when he has no actual experience fighting and that he is proven to be wrong because archer is him from the future who suffered through his shitty ideal thus Shitrou always was wrong from the start but he still wins? Because just because hes right doesnt mean hes correct? "NOPE!" What kind of dumbshit is that?! After he was always wrong due to being so fucking stupid at the end when he beats beats archer and continues down a path that garentees failure madness and death he says he will do it anyways just maybe a bit less... WHAT THE FUCK How does anyone get any sort of "ENTERTAINMENT!" from this garbage!

Also the harem garbage where he can fall in love with his bland sword girl because: Saber isnt allowed to fight! SHE GIRL I DUN WANNA SEE HER GET HURT! Yet doesnt give 2 shits about the majority of male characters they cant even make this dipshit consistent because THATS TOO HARD! Look at how he treats Iliya the little dipshit who tries to kill them! Shitrou is just fine with her at the end of it but Shinji is bad because hes a asshole? This is barely about his fuck ass ideals its about waifus and "I KNOW IT!" Also the other choices Tsundere dipshit who looks smart but is actually almost as fucking stupid as Shitrou just looking smarter while next to him. Last we have some weird girl who says senpai repeatedly and Shirou is so mentally challenged for loving her because SHE TRIES TO KILL HIM IN THIS ROUTE!

All of that and funny enough the only way Shitrous idiotic ideal would work is if they did a "SWITCHAROO!" and made his character arc a tragedy instead forcing stupidity to be the winning choice just to have the protagonist succeed and get a girlfriend at the end even when he is proven wrong. FUCK SHITROU EMIYUCK "YOU ARE (not) THE SMARTY PANTS!"

Now with the negatives out of the way here are the positives for this Smarty Pants review: There are bad end paths were Shitrou dies! "Niiiiiiice!" But you can tell the creator doesnt read too many "BOOKS!" Because any series were that insufferable turd dies is a good ending! Regardless because of it the rating is one star instead of half a star.
