Kurosaki said “no matter how many times I watch that, I always get emotional.” He also gave some insight into the scene, saying that it shows the complete opposite of when Waver first summoned Iskander in Fate/Zero.

The final favorite moment of the series came from the final episode, with Waver finally being able to talk to Iskander one more time. Meanwhile, Nakai said that Rhongomyniad “just looks cool,” and added that it was one of the few times we get to see Ad actually being serious, rather than its usual comedic characterization. Kato said that in the scythe form, it was the first time we were able to see what she was capable of. Two of the favorite moments shown in the panel came from the scene where Gray powered up, first releasing Ad into its scythe form, then to the second stage, showcasing Rhongomyniad. He also mentioned that if you pay attention, when the character falls down, his voice reverts back from Lord El-Melloi II to Waver Velvet for a moment, showing that even though he’s grown up to be so serious, “deep down, he's still the cute little Waver.” Nakai said that it was one of his favorite scenes because Waver is always frowning, but in that episode he learned that he could go off the rails with the character and give the serious Lord El-Melloi II a comedic face and voice if the narrative presented an opportunity. Then came some of Nakai’s favorite scenes: Waver being lightly cursed in episode 1, which causes him to stand up and jam his knee into the table and fall over. Nakai also chose the present scene as one of his favorites, saying, “Gray, as director Kato mentioned, it’s a new facial expression no one’s seen before!” He also mentioned that it was one of the anime-exclusive scenes, and that he hoped he did a good enough job and that hopefully everyone liked it. Kato said that he chose the scene because it is the only time we see Gray cry in the show, and it shows how the relationship between teacher and student has deepened over the course of the narrative. The next scene shown was from the show’s final episode, when Waver receives a gift from Gray. He also mentioned that in showing Waver after the Fourth Holy Grail War in Fate/Zero, “I believe a theme of Fate is that life goes on,” and that Case Files carries that on. He added that the first episode showed Waver’s normal life as a teacher in the Clocktower, setting up the main cast and the status quo, while episode 2 delved more into the mysteries and titular case files. Kato said that the liked the scene because it shows one of the series’ themes of people not being able to see the bigger picture until time passes. The first of such scenes was the final scene of episode 2, when Waver is deducing what caused the show’s first mystery, and realizing that his own student was at the source of it all. As a result, Kurosaki said that they decided to mainly adapt the Rail Zeppelin, and that they made their own storyboards and storylines for various anime-exclusive scenes.Īfter the Q & A session with the moderator, the panel transitioned into showing a few scenes that the guests had picked beforehand for being their favorite or most memorable moments from the show. Both Kato and Kurosaki said that choosing single story was the most difficult part of the adaptation, since simply adapting mysteries every episode might get boring or slow the pace too much. Instead of following a Holy Grail War, the relationship between Master and Servant or the like, a teacher and his student solve magical mysteries.Īnother question dealt with how the team selected different parts of the story to adapt. After reading, he felt in tune with the story and wanted to adapt them Kurosaki added that one of the reasons that Case Files is interesting in particular was that it tells a different kind of narrative and has a different point of view and pacing from most Fate stories. Kato said that Kurosaki originally approached him, telling him that he should read original light novels. One such question was simply about how the adapation first started. The panel started with a Q & A section, where the panelists answered various questions from a moderator to give insight into details about the show’s production. While Nakai made a live drawing of the show’s main character, the titular Lord El-Melloi II, also known as Waver Velvet, the other two answered various questions from the panel’s moderator.
