Why Tsukihime Deserves A New Anime Series
Type-Moon is best known for creating the Fate series, the massive franchise that began with the visual novel Fate/stay night. Fate's story focused on the summoning of legendary figures as Servants, a concept that propelled the series to popularity. A big part of Fate's success came from its many anime adaptations, which covered not only the original novel's routes, but also side stories and spin-offs involving the characters.
