* Based on Urobuchi Gen and Type-Moon's 2006-2007
Fate/Zero novel, a prequel to Type-Moon's much acclaimed
Fate/Stay Night 2004 visual novel.
The
Holy Grail War is a death-match between 7 magi (Masters) and their
summoned heroic spirits (Servants). In this battle royale, the prize is
the legendary Holy Grail, said to be an omnipotent wish-granting device
which will produce any sort of miracle in order to bent reality to
accommodate the wishes it grants. The winning Master and Servant shall
be granted one wish each, after which the Holy Grail will not be
activated until the next War.
The 4th Holy Grail War is about to
take place, and the 3 preceding Wars had ended without a victor. In
pursuit of their individual goals and ambitions, the competing magi
congregate at a Japanese city called Fuyuki. All the magi will do
anything, rationalize away any atrocity, in pursuit of the Holy Grail.
All of them, but one.
Kotomine Kirei
is a Master, but one without a reason to fight. Unable to release
himself from the threads of Fate, he is reluctantly drawn into the War.
To enter the War, he even had to stray from his path in the Holy Church
and join the ranks of the Mage's Association, an organization with which
the Church is not on good terms, but which it has to tolerate and
sometimes even cooperate with.
However, as Fate would ironically have it, one of his rival Masters, Emiya Kiritsugu,
is a man more merciless than anyone else, an assassin who killed many
people and intervened in many conflicts, for reasons no one is able to
understand. Kirei's fight against this interesting yet strange sort of
enemy might prove to be his most troubling task so far. Kiritsugu is
equally puzzled by Kirei, and both of them still have the other Masters
and Servants to take care of.
