30 Days of Tales Day 30: Favorite Tales Ending

First off, to conclude this wonderful 30 days of tales (its been wonderful thank you all!!!) My favorite Tales ending would have to be…Tales of the Abyss.

I honestly think that Tales of the Abyss left the least loose ends up. Like with Tales of Symphonia, it would’ve been my favorite except for the fact that Kratos left, which really made me all depress. But with Tales of the Abyss, the only thing that is left to your imagination is whether or not the person at the end was Luke or Asch. And although I feel bad for Asch, I honestly think that the person at the end was Luke. Also, in the end, I like how most of the God Generals managed to at least die doing something they wished to do, like Arietta fighting for Ion(only it wasn’t her Ion) and I would like to believe that she is with the real Ion now. Also, I love how everyone is still together at the end, you know not always but they’re at least they’re all there when we see them. Also, I love hearing how they believe that Luke will come back and he does. Like how Guy says “The others can sit at his grave telling stories, but I won’t be joining them!” Best friend for life man!~

In conclusion, after all the hardships we experience during Abyss, I love the ending where Luke comes back(in his new clothes too~! XD) 

So thanks everyone who took the time to read my 30 days!! It’s been wonderful with you guys! Now I’m off to do my next one~ ;D

30 Days of Tales Day 29: Favorite Game Plot

AWWW THIS ONE IS HARD!!! Hmmm…not being biased here but out of the whole series, this one will have to be Tales of the Abyss plot.

Basically, I love how everything in TotA is connected by the Score. How the world’s future is written fully in the score and how everyone is connected in some way. Especially how Van wants to destroy the Score; its basically saying that your future isn’t written merely on paper. And yet, even though he was the antagonist, his aim was understandable. Its like saying your future will have an unhappy ending and asking if you choose to continue. Idk I’m basically saying irrelevant things, but I don’t think that my love for this game can be described with mere words.

30 Days of Tales Day 27: Favorite Animated Tales series/OVA

Hmmm…out of all the Tales Animes..this one will have to be the Tales of Symphonia OVA.

This has got to be because of how different it is compared to the whole story line. Ya, its the same story line but I love how they put alternate scenes than what was in the game. Like how Lloyd found out about Kratos, or the coffee scenes, and Colette’s songs.

Oh, and lets not forget the hilariously random bonus episodes along with the humor every now and then.

Also, I love how they look in the OVA. There’s something about them that makes them all look so adorable. Yes, even Mithos. Like in the United World episodes there were so many perks and the way they made their facial expressions was just brilliant. And did you see Zelos’s hair?! It was so fluffy!!!!

And lets not forget the openings!!! Brilliantly made right?!

30 Days of Tales Day 26: A Tales World You Would Want to Live in

I think this one is pretty obvious… this one would have to be Terca Lumeiris

Not only is it a beautiful world…but come on…it doesn’t really have as much problems as many worlds…besides the blastia. I mean, look at Teth’alla or Sylverant…Sylverant is way behind and Teth’all is way up there.

30 Days of Tales Day 25: Favorite Weapon

AWWWWW. ewohawiidfiefwiwehewuh the Tales of Series has ssooooo many good weapons….okok…I think this one has to be the Material Blades  Lloyd gets from his two dads.

^Enough Said!!! Except for the fact that they’re awesome cause theyre from both his dads!!!!!!!!!

30 Days of Tales Day 24: Favorite Spell

So, right now, everyone would draw a line between Judgement and Indignation. Right now, I would have to go with Genis’ spell, Idignation Judgement lolol

Not only does it look epic, but talk about a way to find a resolution eh?

30 Days of Tales Day 23: Favorite Skit

This day will be relatively short. There are soooo many skits in the tales franchise its hard to choose just one so I’ll just make a list:

Tales of Symphonia:

  • This is Impossible (DotNW)-Partially because everyone is completely confused and so was I at that part. Especially since we just got back with Lloyd and nobody is really pestering him. Oh and Sheen’s comment is just random!
  • Nothing to Say(DotNW)-This is because you can see how much everyone cares for Lloyd here and how worried they are.
  • Shallow(DotNW)-One word. Zelos
  • Nickname(is that the name??)-the one where Zelos assigns everyones nicknames. It’s nice to see what he thinks of everyone
  • The Overworld Skit near Flanoir with Kratos-this one is random cause it makes you wonder what he was even doing there.
  • Pretty much anyone where Colette is being ditzy, Lloyd being himself or Zelos being Zelos.

Tales of the Abyss:

  • Any one where Guy is being teased about his gynophobia
  • More about the Cheagles-everyone is being adorable here. Especially Ion and Tear!!
  • Any one where Mieu is teased
  • What Kind of Girl…?-Guy is so lost!
  • A Lover’s Quarrel?-Especially the japanese version of Guy’s “mieu”
  • The Fate of Death-I like this one because this is where Luke understand’s the meaning of death and actually fights to live.
  • The Joy of Life-learn from Luke’s example!! The bright side is the best side!
  • We Meet Again-Ion believes in Luke and the kid is just too kind!

Tales of Vesperia

  • Side Effects of Cameo-this one is only in the japanese version right?either way its hilarious when you know everyone they’re being
  • If Only It Could-lolol!
  • Dog Language
  • Yuri’s Secret Ingredient-cause love is the best lol
  • Secretly in Love-LOLOL! Yuri’s random love and his nickname Ristelle lol

Tales of Graces

  • The one where Malik is telling sophie a story about the chicken and the onions and etc lol

Sorry guys if this is kinda half assed!! I would’ve made a huuuuuge list but I’m kinda running on borrowed time here..

30 Days of Tales Day 22: Favorite One on One Fight

Out of all the one on one battles, this one will have to be the one in Tales of the Abyss, Luke versus Asch

I think this battle was not only fun to play because I was afraid of Asch hurting me (jumping up and down during the battle) but because of the meaning behind it. The two are fighting and seeing who has the right to live (although they both do).It’s kinda like having a inner fight with yourself and you have to see who would have the stregnth to overcome their obstacles. Although I am disappointed that we couldn’t just draw the line and call it a tie.

30 Days of Tales Day 21: Most Shocking Reveal

Hmm… this one is kinda hard…but I think I’ll go with the one that pretty much any Tales fan knows. The Reveal of Kratos being Lloyd’s father.

I think what made this scene so shocking is how it came. I mean Yuan took Lloyd hostage and practically laughed as everyone was freaking out!!! He’s kinda sadistic >..> Especially how Kratos is just standing there not denying it ;^; And then Mithos came and there’s more shocking reveals!!!! Seriously!! Although I love how Lloyd’s just saying “What do I believe?!” Like if you see this in the OVA though Zelos is there to put Lloyd back in his place. Though in the game its Colette and cue the cheesey speech like Mithos said. I kinda agreed…

Oh and for my last day bout Favorite Quotees I forgot Lloyd’s “Everyone! Stop saying Corny things!!!”

30 Days of Tales Day 20: Favorite Piece of Game Music

Oh! This one definitely has to be from the top of my head, Sophie from Tales of Graces!

Not the character, the ost! I think the song is really sweet and mellow and its so relaxing to hear. I really love listening to it XD

30 Days of Tales Day 19: Favorite Quote

Lol, you know what guys, you can give up on me just choosing one. Too many quotes to say. Let’s start off with the ones I remember.

From Tales of Symphonia-

  • Lloyd-
    • Regardless of who your real father is, you’re still you. Nothing’s changed. You just have two fathers. Just think of yourself as being lucky for having more than most people do.
    • Just because the logic is sound, it doesn’t mean it’s right
    • Where do you get off? Don’t even start spewing the word, ‘justice’! I hate that word! If you wanted to save your wife, you should have resigned your position as Governor-General and searched for a cure, or help, or whatever! You’re a worthless jerk who couldn’t give up his social status even for his own wife!
    •  How can we go on a quest to regenerate the world if we can’t even save the people standing right in front of us?!
    • If you’re afraid of dying, it means you’re happy to be alive
    • I’ve lost all confidence as a man.
    • Give me your name and I’ll give you mine
  • Colette:
    • Dream some good dreams for me, Lloyd…
    •  This time, I don’t want to disappear. I really don’t.
  • Raine:
    • In order to change the world, I must first change myself.
  • Zelos:
    •  Man, what an arrogant SOB. Talking as if he knows everything…
    • [To Lloyd, when confronted about discriminating against half elves] I know that they’re normal people, just like you and me. But that’s what discrimination is about. Knowing that, and still not being able to shake that feeling…
  • Mithos:
    •  Is it a sin to be weak hearted? Not everyone’s strong. Not everyone can stand being despised.
    • And thus, you forget the past… The countless lives that were lost… and the pain of those that suffered. Crimes must be met with punishment.

From Tales of Vesperia:

  • Yuri:
    • Humph. People can’t understand anything except what they see with their own eyes.
    • I’ll set you free
  • Rita:
    • Having you pity makes me wanna jump off this cliff.
    • Zap….. I like the way that sounds.

From Tales of the Abyss:

  • Luke:
    • You can’t go forward if you keep looking back
    • All I ever did was pay attention to myself. And I’m not even sure I saw myself clearly.
    • If it’s kill or be killed, then dammit, I’m killing!
    • [After cutting his hair] With this..I say goodbye to who I have been..
  • Jade:
    • I’m not sure about ‘friend,’ but we do have an awkward bond of sorts
    • Having this many suicidal people around is really getting on my nerves
    • Unlike in fairy tales, the world doesn’t live happily ever after.
    • People have the right to choose their own path to destruction
  • Guy:
    • It’s so much easier to believe that only your own thoughts and beliefs are absolutely correct.
    • The greater the loss, the more people need someone to hate for it.
    • If you look up “villain” in the dictionary, I bet you’ll see Jade’s face next to it.
    • Enter the amazing Guy!

Well these are just quite a few but you get the point!!!!

30 Days of Tales Day 18: Saddest Scene

WARNING:SPOILERS

Again, this is the Tales franchise, you cannot make me choose only one!!! So many scenes…where to start oh gosh…

From Tales of Destiny:

  • When Leon died ;-; My poor baby!!! Especially how he’s thinking of Marian and everything and how he just sacrifices himself! T^T

From Tales of Symphonia

  • When Lloyd finds out Kratos is his dad.
  • The famous coffee scene. Sure, it’s all fun and games with the hot and cold parts but what is said and what is done during and after the scene is very heart warming and very sad indeed ;-;
  • Anything that happens in Flanoir. There’s something about it that makes all the secrets come out and the snow really adds to the effect.
  • Finding Raine and Genis’ mother. Raine’s voice actress does an amazing job at this scene and nearly brought me to tears.
  • Seeing everyone’s “fears” at Welgaia. Like how Zelos’ was Seles, Colette’s Ramiel, Kratos’ Lloyd, etc. Then hearing Lloyd’s comforting words.

From Tales of the Abyss:

  • Seeing Guy’s past. The poor boy!!!
  • When Arietta died. In fact, when any of the god generals died!!!! Seriously!!!
  • What happened at Sheridan. They were just poor civillians trying to help us out!!!
  • Ion’s death. FUCK. The poor boy!!! Mohs you bastard!!! D:<

From Tales of Graces:

  • When Asbel gets kicked out of Lhant. Hubert was being mean!!! And it didn’t help that the guard kicked him! Bitch the poor boy had nothing!! And you’re not helping! Oh and when it started raining when he broke down ;-;

These are just a few but I think you get the idea
