Honestly the next couple are going to be unpopular as well.

This is a popular Type Moon film series following the exploits of certifiably badass protagonist, Shiki Ryougi. There's probably some grand, overarching plot to discuss, but I found it extremely hard to follow, and, therefore, dull as hell overall. I'm mainly in it for the cinematics. Incredible animation and music makes for some of the most beautiful and fluid action sequences in the medium. When people praise ufotable's talents, this is one thing I can agree with. They're damn good at creating scenes.

But yeah, cool visuals can ony get you so far, especially when I want to like the series more than I do. As I said, Shiki is a fantastic character, and watching her throughout the series is fun. Not huge on any of the other recurring characters, unfortunately, but Shiki gets the most screentime by far, so it's no huge issue. My favorite film was 5 by far. Tomoe's tragic story was one of the few large plotlines that kept me engaged, and I feel that it can stand on it's own amongst other films as a masterpiece.

So, obviously, I don't hate KnK. I don't even dislike it, except for that boring-ass epilogue part. It's one of those series where it's just clearly not my thing, and, had 5 not been so damn good, I doubt I would've finished it. Anyway, might as well do a ranking since that's what you're supposed to do with film franchises I think.

5 > 7 > 2 > 3 > 4 > 1 > 8 > 6 > Epilogue
