MVM Entertainment To Release Original Fate / Stay Night TV Series on Blu-ray

It’s the news that many Fate fans have been waiting for but MVM Entertainment have ‘secretly’ revealed, through their online store Anime-on-Line, that they will be releasing the original Fate Stay Night series on Blu-ray later this year.

That exciting news doesn’t stop there; as the template box-art for the set, which uses the same artwork used on the American ‘Complete Series’ Blu-ray release of Fate Stay Night, suggests that the 24 episodes will be spread over 3 Blu-ray Discs which suggests (or pretty much confirms) that this UK Blu-ray release will feature the improved 1080p visuals and re-made chapter points.

The movie installment into the Fate/Stay Night saga is finally here within the UK, but whats included and what did we think of it? Well find out in our Blu-ray Review of Fate/Stay Night – Unlimited Blade Works.

But Shiro’s own feelings for Saber may conflict with their goal.

While seven teams will enter the battle, only one will leave, and the winners will receive the prize of the Grail itself and their greatest wish granted. Will that wish be worth the price Shiro must ultimately pay?
