That week I watched the wrong anime order and ruined the whole experience
Last month I decided to finally watch the Fate series but I looked up a watch order online and picked a random one that said to start with Fate Zero first. I got three episodes in and thought okay this is pretty cool but something felt off. Then I mentioned it to a buddy at work and he laughed at me saying I just spoiled every major twist in the whole franchise by watching it out of order. I was so mad at myself because I really wanted to go in blind and actually enjoy the reveals. Now I have to wait like six months before I can rewatch everything and forget the spoilers. Has anyone else messed up a watch order that bad or am I the only dummy here?

Used to think order didn't matter but now I know better after a similar mistake.

Oh wow, that really hit home for me. @karen_west59, can you share what specifically happened that made you change your mind? I've been on the fence about this for a while and I'm trying to figure out if I'm overthinking it or if there's really a right way. Like, was it a timing thing or did you just get burned by a specific choice? I'd love to hear the details because I feel like I keep going back and forth and it's driving me nuts.

Wait, did you actually think Googling a watch order was the same as researching a legitimate viewing sequence? Because that's like asking a random guy at a bar what you should eat at a restaurant and then blaming the chef when your food tastes terrible. I'm sorry, but the Fate watch order debate is practically a meme at this point, and you walked right into the most obvious trap (bless your heart). Honestly, you're not a dummy, you're just part of a very exclusive club that's been bamboozled by the internet's favorite hobby of trolling new fans. Six months from now you'll be fine, but for now just enjoy the confusion of watching everything backwards like some kind of anime time traveler.
