A follow up that has Rin, Sakura, Ilya and Saber deal with and confront the corruption and assholes that ruined their families and fight to get some justice for everything that happen. But not such series exists because Zero is a prequel and Fate stay/night is split into three different routes that explore a different lady each along with their relationship to a kid that only appeared at the end of Zero so I never formed an emotional bond to that character and don't really give a hoot about him.
That's unfair to him and Fate stay/night in general. Shiro is a fine character in his own right and an interesting deconstruction of hero archetypes, and the series is engaging and iconic. It's just not what I want. ^^'
*sigh*
Now I reminded myself of Gilgamesh murdering Ilya...
Kefla vs. Gilgamesh, preferably taking her time to dismantle and destroy him.
