Ayako Kawasumi
In early 2007, the popularity of "Fate/stay night" and the anime Japanese voice actors led to the launch of the "Fate/stay tune" internet radio drama, featuring the voice talent of Kana Ueda (Rin) and Ayako Kawasumi (Saber). In 2011, the writers Chris Klug and Josiah Lebowitz in their book "Interactive storytelling for video games" praised "Fate/stay night" as a strong example of branching storylines and interactive storytelling, comparing its depth and complexity to that of a traditional novel. In 2019, the franchise took first place in the Comiket event. The spin-off "Fate/Grand Order" was also a commercial success surpassing the sales of the game franchise "Metal Gear" in four years.
