You guys know the story (if not, then look it up!), and for anyone who has played the game for the PS2 should be very familiar with the concepts and characters presented!

And with that in mind, the first 2 episodes (yeah, some Japanese channels actually did a double-episode premiere) showed that Sunrise REALLY did a nice job adapting this! They threw in a few additions of their own like introducing Natalia early, but overall it's pretty damn faithful and nicely paced. Hell, they even used the exact same OP theme song for the game. Obviously the guys of Bandai-Namco are looking over Sunrise's shoulder.

Of course, what makes this show awesome is.....TEAR!!!!

So cute!

I thought it was neat how the used the same music for the anime opening as the game opening.

She hawt D:

Though I've always wanted to play the Tales of series...

The thing that stopped me was the limited areas the games were released. I still regret not buying Symphonia... I went and got Windwaker instead D:

ah, I love the Tales series, I've beaten Symphonia and Vesperia. I'm working on Phantasia and Abyss right now, and love both of them. I hope that the Abyss anime gets licensed in the US.

I've only beaten Abyss and Symphonia.

Episode 4! You know, I have come to a conclusion that Liam O'Brian's rendition of Dist the Reaper is FAR better and more maniacally hilarious than the original Japanese.
