Division of work and production
TYPE-MOON's works are primarily visual novels. "Fate/stay night" unfolds the Holy Grail War through multiple chapters; "Night of the Magician" adopts a non-branching main storyline reading style; "Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon-" presents the story of Tsukihime with a new production standard.
These works share some creators, but the roles of each work are not exactly the same. The script for 'Night of the Ancient Magus' was directed by Kinoko Nasu, with character design and original artwork by Hirokazu Yukoyama; The new character design for 'Tsukihime' is by Takashi Takeuchi, and Hirokazu Koyama is credited as the art director.
Versions and collaborations
"Fate/stay night REMASTERED" is based on the existing "Realta Nua" version, with the production brand and publishing partners each credited on the product. The TYPE-MOON entry focuses on production activities, with the language, platform, and version of each work recorded separately on the work page.

Representative works and narrative forms
"Fate/stay night" centers on the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City. After Shirou Emiya and Saber form a contract, they become embroiled in a conflict between seven Masters and their Servants. "Night of the Magician" is set in the late 1980s, depicting the lives of Aoko Aozaki, Aritama Kuonji, and Sojuro Shizuki together. The former unfolds the narrative through different female protagonist routes, while the latter uses a continuous reading format without branching out.
A remake of 'Tsukihime'
"Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon-" reconstructs Shiki Tono's story, shifting the setting to 2010s Tokyo, and includes the two routes of Elquet and Sier. Kiko Nasu handled the script and direction, Takashi Takeuchi handled character design, and Hirokazu Koyama served as art director; Hideyuki Fukazawa and Keita Haga participated in the music, ufotable produced the opening animation, and the theme song was performed by ReoNa.
Collaboration in "Wizard's Night."
The script and direction were handled by Nasu Kiko, character design, key animation, and image director by Hirokazu Koyama, with Homare Aotsuki and Shimoetsu participating in visual production, and Tsukuri Moji handling the direction script. The 2012 original PC version had no character voice acting; The PS4 and Switch versions released on December 8, 2022, added full voice acting and high-definition visuals, and offered Japanese, English, Chinese Simplified, and Traditional Chinese.
Reissuing old works
Fate/stay night REMASTERED launched on Steam and Nintendo Switch on August 8, 2024, offering Japanese, English, and Chinese Simplified. The product pages are signed as TYPE-MOON as the distributor and Aniplex as the seller. As a result, works originally targeted at the Japanese PC market gained new reading access through consoles, digital stores, and multilingual versions.
Production and performance
"Fate/stay night REMASTERED": Released.
The founding members met the visual novel project
The four founding members of TYPE-MOON are Nasu Mushroom, Takashi Takeuchi, Seibei, and Keita Haga. Takeuchi, Seibei, and Haga first became classmates and dorm mates in Compile; Takeuchi hopes to present Nasu's work through a visual novel, and the skills of the three make this plan possible.
Tsukihime R's performance collaboration
In a 2021 interview, BLACK explained that Tsukihime R materials would be temporarily assembled first, then checked and adjusted by Nasu; Kiyobee customizes editors for assembly needs. Image resources were arranged during the outline and storyboard stages, with Takeuchi Eri working and BLACK, Koyama, and others participating in meetings, keeping CG within the planned range while retaining many expression differences.
The handover of the extra story in '428'
When TYPE-MOON first discussed collaboration, they were working on a fan disc for "Fate," and Nasu suggested looking for opportunities to participate after that work ended. When the main script for '428' was completed and preparations for filming began, Ishii officially commissioned Kanan for an extra story; Nasu placed the story outside the main storyline based on the premise of freely using the character.
2022 Wizard's Night of the Magician Port and Overhaul
During the development of the 2022 console version of "Night of the Magician," TYPE-MOON staff played the original PC and port screen simultaneously, carefully checking differences and moiré patterns, then submitted the issues to the port company for correction, repeatedly completing this handover.
