# Where to Watch Fate/Zero Season 2

**Fate/Zero Season 2 streams on Crunchyroll, Hulu, and Netflix, so finishing the Fourth Holy Grail War legally is easy on whatever you already pay for. This is where ufotable's brutal battle royale of mages and summoned legends tightens into its endgame, gorgeous, grim, and scored by Yuki Kajiura at full force. If the first half hooked you on the clash between Kiritsugu's cold pragmatism and Saber's chivalry, the concluding cour is where those ideals start to break.**

## Where to Watch

- [Crunchyroll](http://www.crunchyroll.com/fatezero)
- [Hulu](http://www.hulu.com/fatezero)
- [Netflix](https://www.netflix.com/title/70304256)

Crunchyroll is the natural home for Fate/Zero and the easiest place to watch both halves back to back. Hulu and Netflix also carry it, so you can stay on whichever service you already use. All three are official and legal.

## Synopsis

With the Fourth Holy Grail War deadlocked and no victor in sight, the Church overseer Risei Kotomine forces the surviving Masters into an uneasy alliance to face a threat that could tear Fuyuki apart. That truce doesn't hold for long, because every mage at the table is willing to do something unforgivable to claim the wish-granting Grail. As the war grinds toward its end, the rift widens between Kiritsugu Emiya and his Servant Saber over what a hero actually is, while the hollow Kirei Kotomine drifts toward a dangerous kinship with one of the remaining Servants. By the finish, winning and losing look almost the same.

## Watch Order

This is the second and concluding cour of Fate/Zero, so start with the first season, which sets up the seven Masters, their Servants, and the war they've been dragged into. Watch that and this half completes the story. As a bonus, Fate/Zero is a prequel to Fate/stay night, so once you're done here you have a clean on-ramp into the wider Fate saga.

- **[Psycho-Pass](https://hozuna.com/anime/psycho-pass)** — Same appetite for moral grey and philosophical knife-fights, aimed at a cyberpunk future. It wrestles with justice, free will, and the cost of order the way Fate/Zero wrestles with heroism: heady, tense, and unafraid to get dark.
- **[Code Geass](https://hozuna.com/anime/code-geass)** — For the strategic side of Fate/Zero, a brilliant, ruthless protagonist willing to sacrifice anything for his ideal, chess-mastering his way through a war where every move has a body count.
