The closer we get to it the more this collab with ”UBW” is starting to just feel like “Fate” in general. more generically Fate and less specifically UBW. Which…I guess is fine…

But man how the hell are you gonna have a UBW Collab and NOT have Shirou and Rin.

10 hours ago
Upper_Current

I admit, I'm mystified as to why the collab singles out UBW. It's not like it's recent or anything. Why wasn't the collab with Fate/Stay Night in general?

Because they’d have to explain Sakura Matou’s entire existence in a PG-13 way and that…would be very hard to do lol

I mean, it is alluded to that Feixiao was born from a non consensual relationship. I don't see the Sakura situation that is problematic to deal with.

Of all the Fate series I'd say it's the most well known, and iconic for good, and bad reasons. Hell if this was a Fate/Zero, or Fate Apocrypha I dont think it would carry the same buzz.

The probability of any fate collab that Isn’t stay night is very low. I’ve never seen a non-stay night collab before. Idk why that’s the case.

The UBW part was never going to be a focus. The characters and fate themselves is obviously what's being sought after.

Idw i guess if it was a heavens feels collab, then they use Saber alter and Emiya with rho aias instead of ubw? Honestly, I’d be drooling.

Vermillion_toxins

It’s easier to bring in the servants than the master. Even in the series, shirou and rin is mostly locked in stay night and when they do show in other material, its usually alternate versions of stay night and non-canon spin-offs, fate/zero or has a semi-servant in fgo. The off-chance emiya does appear in a sequel…. Yeah, very rare. He was mentioned in strange fake, appears in adventures of lord melloi ii and he was in hollow atraxia but that’s all I know. This franchise is deathly allergic to sequels. Literally the only Fate ip I know that goes in a straight line is kaleid liner prisma Illya. Fortunately for Rin, she has much more appearances. Not only appearing has much as shirou. But also in extra and kaleid liner. Also twice the pseudo servant.

Rin is one of the two characters who created the modern idea of Tsundere (Asuka Langley being the other one) so she's quite literally waifu history.
