Warning: I'm not good with words but I really want to let out what I feel about this movie
I have never seen such a lazy and atrocious adaptation as this one, unlike other Fate series adaptation that's not entirely perfect we can see studios like A-1 pictures for Fate/Apocrypha, CloverWorks for FGO Babylonia, Ufotable for the main series or Fate Zero or even Deen's Fate Stay Night put their heart and soul into the series for both anime only or source material reader to enjoy, hell even some people prefer the adaptation more to source material.
SPOILERS AHEAD
But this Camelot movie, nope. Not a single soul i've seen think it's good or decent. I watched this movie as both source material reader and an "anime only". It's such a lazy adaptation, the dialogue was changed entirely and the pacing was faster than Lightning McQueen. There was no impact whatsoever during Rushd's mother death or Da Vinci's sacrifice, there were more build up in the game and the very impact was there even for the minor scene possible.
Not to mention that they cut Touta and Hassan and the Hundred Personas. It honestly sucks because THAT Sanzang scene in part 2 will not hold much meaning anymore. As of the characters here I feel like Mash, Sanzang and Da Vinci was butchered here, it's sad considering this is the singularity where Mash will get a huge character development resulting in her becoming on my favourite character in anime but here's hoping they'll do her justice in the next movie.
That prison scene was SO AWKWARD. Considering how the mission in the game was saving Sanzang's disciple Touta, it's like there were no impact or significance during that scene. I may not remember correctly but there was supposed to be more of Serenity but it's alright I guess
THE POSITIVE
Now enough for the negative, here's the positive or what I like about this movie. No matter how bad the adaptation is I can't help but enjoyed it with all my heart, my heart will jump of joy no matter which type of Fate i'm watching, so there's that. Fight scenes was not bad as people said so it kinda exceeds my expectation there. The last 20 minutes were good for me but wasn't enough to cover up the atrocious remaining one hour. Ozymandias scene is pretty alright, liked it more than the game.. mainly because of the voice acting
Nitrocis is pretty hot here, so that's a plus :3
Highlight of this movie was definitely Stella vs Rhongominyad, that was PERFECT. Exactly like I imagined honestly, so i'll give them credits for that.
Overall Thoughts
All in all, this was an atrocious and messy adaptation that can't be enjoy by many but I somehow enjoyed and honestly not really recommended to first watcher. It's better to just play the game. I'm just sad because I gave this singularity a perfect 10 in the gane, here's hoping that Camelot part 2 will be a better adaptation than this one.
