New PV Trailer for Fate/ Extra Anime Adaptation

Even though I already watched a couple of Fate television anime, movies, OVAs and played the Fate/ Grand Order game, I am still looking forward to new projects from the Fate franchise. Being a huge Fate fan, I don't understand how I didn't see this announcement before. 

On March 2016, Fate announced another television anime based on the PS game Fate/ Extra. The anime studio Shaft will produce the animation for the new anime with the name: Fate/Extra: Last Encore. 

A new PV trailer was added to the official page last Saturday and I must say that it really looks great. The website also revealed new visual and the two main cast members. The anime stars Atsushi Abe as Hakuno Kashinami and Sakura Tange as Saber. I am also excited to finally see a new Saber who is, as I  recognize from the mobile game Grand Order, Nero, Fifth Emperor of Rome. 

The story follows Hakuno who suddenly wakes up in a strange virtual world. With no recollection of the past he is forced to fight for his survival in a war he does not understand, for a prize of value far from his imagination. With only an enigmatic 'Servant' on his side, Hakuno faces both friends and enemies in battles to death only in order to retrieve the mysterious 'Holy Grail' that is said to grant any wish you desire. 

The staff also looks good with Akiyuki Simbo (Puella Magi Madoka Magica) as the chief director at Shaft and Yukihiro Miyamoto as the series director. The character design is done by Masaaki Takiyama based on Rco Wada's original designs whereas the original Fate/ Stay Night creator Kinoko Nasu is responsible for series composition.
