The folks at Peppermint Anime recently brought out the Fate/Grand Order anime special on August 25th, 2017 and they’re continuing to bring out clips for it in its German language edition. The third clip has hit that definitely adds a little more color to the project. The work came out as a New Year’s Eve film at the end of 2016 on Tokyo MX and others and it has been previously picked up for North American release by Aniplex USA while MVM UK has it as well. Peppermint is looking at a fall release for the project as Aniplex Japan brought it out on DVD and Blu-ray back on March 29th, 2017.
The show was directed by Hitoshi Nanba based on the script by Ayumi Sekine. Studio Lay-duce produced the animation for it.
Check out our review of it.
Plot Concept: The story is set in the year 2015, during the final era over which magic still held a strong influence. The humanity survival and security organization Chaldea was established to observe the world that can only be seen by magic and the world that can only be measured by science; as well as to prevent the final extinction of humanity.
Thanks to the efforts of many researchers, the path of human history has been ensured for 100 years into the future. However, without warning, the realm of the future that was under constant observation by Chaldea vanished. The extinction of humanity in 2017 was observed—no, confirmed.
The apparent cause of the extinction was in the Japanese city of Fuyuki in 2004. In that city, there was an “unobservable realm” which had never existed until now.
Chaldea issued the Grand Order for a “Holy Grail Expedition,” to investigate, uncover, and possibly destroy the singularity that apparently will cause the extinction of humanity.
