Has anyone gone through Fate/stay night in recent years or are we going from decade old memories? It aged like shit

>too many kitchen scenes
>cartoon villains
>kinda ugly art style
>shounen-y formulaic plot in the first two routes (defeat villain, next one appears, rinse and repeat)
>weak OST
>horrible sex scenes, but the all-ages version is too censored, so there's no good middle ground
>weak prose and dialogue compared to later Nasu's works

The anime adaptation could have saved it but turned out worse. This is a way too overhyped work on 4chan. Zero is more polished and, yes, even FGO (when Nasu is writing). Fragments and Strange Fake surpassed it. Case Files surpassed it. Apocrypha works better as an anime. Tsukihime is more interesting and grounded.
