So I just finished reading Fate Stay Night, and I feel hungry for more, but its sequels are a lot more silly and laid back, and what I want isn’t the easy familiarity of characters whose tales are already told, but the poignant drama and character development, and the poetic narrative delivery, that I’d never experienced before. Does anyone here know stories that have this type of heart-gripping-ness?

Have you considered other VNs? You could look at the top rated VNs on VNdb and see whether they sound dramatic enough for you; for example, Umineko (although I’m not sure if I recommend it or not).
