Fate/strange Fake is a Japanese light novel series in Type-Moon's Fate franchise, written by Ryōgo Narita and illustrated by Morii Shizuki.
It was originally placed on Narita's homepage under the title of "Fake/states night" on April 1, 2008, presented as a prologue and introduction for a role playing style game as an April Fool's prank. The text was taken down after April Fool's, but was later re-released in the form of a novel included as an extra with the magazine TYPE-MOON Ace 2 in 2009, with illustrations by Morii Shizuki and an afterword by the author.
In 2014, it was announced that both a novel and manga series would be published and a brief trailer was made. An anime television special produced by A-1 Pictures titled Fate/strange Fake: Whispers of Dawn premiered in July 2023, which adapts most of the chapters of the first volume. An anime television series adaptation also produced by A-1 Pictures premiered its first episode in December 2024 (with Whispers of Dawn being a prologue), while later episodes are set to premiere in 2025.
