Two new updates arrived for the Fate/Strange Fake anime during its AnimeJapan 2025 panel this weekend. First up is a new cast addition—which has Gakuto Kajiwara (Shinra Kusakabe in Fire Force) joining the series as Sigma—with a new character visual following with Flat Escardos and the wrist-worn Berserker.
Here’s Sigma’s design next to Flat/Berserker:
Crunchyroll currently streams both Fate/strange Fake -Whispers of Dawn- as well as the first episode of Fake/strange Fake, and will stream the series as it airs in 2025.
Crunchyroll describes Fate/strange Fake:
In a Holy Grail War, Mages (Masters) and their Heroic Spirits (Servants) fight for the control of the Holy Grail—an omnipotent wish-granting device said to fulfill any desire.
Years have passed since the end of the Fifth Holy Grail War in Japan.
Now, signs portend the emergence of a new Holy Grail in the western American city of Snowfield.
Sure enough, Masters and Servants begin to gather…
A missing Servant class…
Impossible Servant summonings…
A nation shrouded in secrecy…
And a city created as a battleground. In the face of such irregularities, the Holy Grail War is twisted and driven into the depth of madness.
Let the curtain rise on a masquerade of humans and heroes, made to dance upon the stage of a false Holy Grail.
