Fate Apocrypha: The Holy Maiden and What it Means to be a Saint

While the stakes remain high as ever, Fate/Apocrypha trails in a direction different from other Fate series, pitting two teams against one another, the Masters of Red v. The Masters of Black, the latter representing… Read More First Impressions: Fate/Apocrypha
