You know, I get that fanservice is (sadly) a huge selling point over in Japan, but they could at least show off some male servants. All the ones given speaking roles for this ad are female.

I can't watch the ad since in the United States, so maybe it shows more than I expect, but as the three main characters are all female, it isn't surprising they'd get top billing and it focused on them.

I mean, in the background you can see Lancer and a few other servants, but in the foreground, it's all the three main characters. Like, the fate series is about more than just fanservice. Why not show that off to prevent people from getting the wrong idea?

You know, they should make a good Fate/franchise game for a console that's an open-world RPG of sorts, like Fate/Extra, where you can pick your own servant, fight a holy grail war, etc. The Fate franchise would thrive with the right creative minds behind an adventure game.

We embedded both the original official video in the article, which is blocked in the US, as well as a region-free reupload. You can watch the second video we embedded in the article.
