Review of Fate/stay night: Heaven's Feel - II. Lost Butterfly

"The bigger they are, the harder they fall". This statement hold true to almost everything. And with various of recently poor alternative version, Fate! franchise is clearly not an exception. It seems like the greatness of Fate/Zero and the entertaining Fate UBW has forever faded in the shadow of doubts. But fortunately, this time, ufotable has learnt their lessons. Coming back to its root or in this case - route, fan of Fate! finally rejoice. Today, let's look at the 2nd installment of the highly acclaim action fantasy movie: Heaven's Fell part 2 - Lost Butterfly. This time, you can forget about the master tastics inFate/Zero and the shounen-ish nature of UBW, hell, even the Holy Grail War is not the focus of the story here. Immersing in a story about Lust and Jealousy, this time our favorite girl Sakura no longer steps aside, she's so horny and anyone stands in her way to get her beloved sempai, they will regret it.

Telling a gloomy and depressing story yet keeps it simple, seems like this time Lost Butterfly did many things right. It manages to create tensions and mysteries under the shell of beautiful action sequences. I literally can not keep my eyes from the screen while watching it. And I definitely should be, because the story moved in a very fast pace, you might miss some hint and quite interesting directing way if you don't pay close attention. One of my favorite part is when Sakura was dreaming about walking with some strange teddy bears like Alice's Adventure in Wonderland, turns out quite fun.

This is the most astonishing piece of animation I've ever seen in my life. Ufotable did the best job this time. Every movements are so fluid and everything else from the backgrounds to character's designs like hairs, clothes are beautifully done. Watching this at theater must be a blast, I regret that I can't watch this at cinema. Along with the charming music composed by Yuki Kajiura, they are a combination of success. Bringing joy and happiness to the viewers. 10/10

I won't talk much about the characters since you know pretty much everything about them. How they are and how they will act. Very predictable. Imo, they handle the movie quite well in this show. Putting Sakura and Shirou in the spotlight quite Rin and Saber even Gilgamesh still have their moments.

Very looking forward to the final part of Heaven's Feel. The best Fate's route.
