You can smell Shinbo from miles away!
Anyway, that's actually pretty interesting to see some Fate with Shaft animating it and with takiyama's redesign, quite a fresh vision~
And thanks to it I'm starting to gain interest in this game while I wasn't particularly expecting it. That song is entrancing too

My thoughts exactly. lol

It looks great; surreal, cute, and weird, and completely, utterly SHAFT.

What's this game about anyway?

How is it different from Fate Stay Night?

Alternate universe where sorcery/thaumaturgy stopped working in the 1980s and so when the technological age came on instead of using magic circuits to perform sorcery/thaumaturgy they are used for "soul hacking" or something like that.

First Fate/EXTRA spoilers. Regarding setting and Rin.
spoiler[
Also, the world is a dystopia ruled over by a monarchy that does not allow technology and people to progress simply for the sake of peace.
The Rin in this game is not the Tohsaka Rin we know, but a middle-eastern freedom fighter.

She and the protagonist, as well as hundreds of other masters, are inside the virtual world of the Moon Cell, an alien quantum computer inside the moon, to fight a different kind of Holy Grail War against other Masters for the near infinite power it holds, however, all is not as it seems.]

Did I explain it well, anyone else who's familiar with Fate/EXTRA?

Wow, that sounds... amazing! I'll be interested in seeing it getting an anime series. The story sounds even more interesting than that of Fate/Zero and Heaven's Feel!

There's also rumors that I've heard that it make it seem like that EXTRA Rin is spoiler[ related to Stay/Night Rin in some way. ]

Be sure to take it with a grain of salt though. I haven't seen much on that theory at all.

I really want a Fate/Extra anime done by SHAFT after watching this now.

spoiler[Some people say that the Rin we all know raised this new Rin, and this girl isn't a Tohsaka, but an Edelfelt.]
