Sum it up in a Sentence:
Emiya Shirou is an apprentice magus who finds himself caught in a battle to death with other magi and heroes from the past.
Main Description
Emiya Shirou lost his parents in a fire when he was young and was later adopted by a sorceror by the name of Emiya Kiritsugu. Although he was full of admiration for his adopted father and yearns to become an ally of justice, Shirou has limited powers and was unable to become a strong sorceror like his father. That is until one fateful day, he was drawn into the Holy Grail War and summoned a female "servant" known as Saber in order to protect himself. It turns out that the Holy Grail War involves a series of battles among powerful sorcerors to fight for the possession of a relic that will grant one's wishes, the Holy Grail. There are altogether seven "masters" who can summon their respective "servants" from different classes known as Saber, Archer, Rider, Berserker, Lancer, Caster and Assasin. These "servants" have to hide their names in order not to reveal their weaknesses to the enemies.

Personal Opinions
Moeru
Fate Stay Night TV manages to hit most of the major plot points and cut out the gratitous sex from the original visual novel but seems to just fall flat. Emiya ends up looking even more stupid than he normally does in the visual novel. The voices are good and animation is good in places but it just doesn't invoke the same feelings as the visual novel did. If you want to see some fights animated, this is a good place to go though.
