| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- That was a pretty tense episode, a race to help Alisha as Sorey and the others journey to help her. RIP Alisha's father. Glad to see that they came on time as well. That segment with Sorey using his Shepherd powers is quite something (Season 2 OST release when). Also, Rose deserves some credit for her effort imo. What a comeback for her and the others. |
 |
| Decent episode. There was this smoke arrow CGI during the palace break in that I felt looked very awkward. I started laughing when Bartlow committed suicide. xD The purification scene was awesome but I wish there was at least a short fight with the dragon or something before the purification started. I guess we're going to directly confront the Lord of Calamity now? That's the only way they can end this in 4 episodes. |
 |
| The whole group is together now. Nice purification scene. RISING UP! |
| Finally some action, and it was decent I guess. OST was pretty neat though. |
  |
| pretty good episode, can't wait for sorey to bring back our first mate!!!!! they better ask eizen his past story so we can get ToB anime for real |

| I concur, this is getting boring |

| oh nice, they're totally sh*tting on the game the way i like it. |
| I still dont get it how Alisha can be so fine like it nothing happened after her father's killed.. |
| That ending was really cool |
|
| Finally, the plot has actually returned! Maybe there's hope for this show yet. |
| Well, from the looks of things at least it's ending this season then, I don't think they'll have the whole "go to the elemental shrines to get powered up" thing from the game, and considering they were supposed to fight this dragon much earlier at the Glaivend Basin it looks like we're near the conclusion with Symonne showing up out of nowhere Now only a few questions remain for this adaptation, what are they going to to with Maltran and the shrine at the start of the game? Will Alisha be accompanying the group from now on? And are they gonna actually purify Eizen? |
| That was so exciting, never have I seen such an intense display of people just standing still and yelling. Also both Rose and Alisha being relegated to glorified malevolence filters - lmao. |
| That was so EPIC !!!! animation , ost , art everything was LIT It will have much more impact if you played the two games and now how much they rambled about how it's impossible to purify a dragon and all but in the anime they did it , it different than the game since in the game he can only have one Squire while in the anime he can have two , now to deal with the LoC |
| The episode got pretty intense toward the end with the whole purification thing. I liked the OST that played during that part as well. |

arganthos said: i dont get all this hate for the game. i havent played previous installments of the tales series, and compared to berseria its "bad", but i dont dislike tales of zestiria. i'm disappointed that they made it possible to purify dragons :/ still, good episode There was nothing wrong with the game. Actually, it has better battle system than Berseria (way more challenging). But, overall, Berseria is far better due to story, characters etc. Basically, Ufoshit could fix some flaws in this adaptation... Contrary to our hopes, they just made it shit. Welp, it also proves that Ufoshit is all about animation. They don't have good directors etc. And that's probably the reason why Type-Moon chose another studio for Grand Order. |
| Wow. This was... pretty bad. Seriously. Horrible horrible story-telling. Kamiyan3991 said: And that's probably the reason why Type-Moon chose another studio for Grand Order. That's not the reason, no. |
| The episode was much better than the previous ones and we finally had some decent action (plus they actually purified the dragon! I hope ufotable doesn't pulls a cruel twist and Sorey manages to save Eizen a the end), plus the appearence of Symmone or whatever name that dark seraph chick has indicates things will move forward (hopefully). Still, Alisha's reaction to his father's dead was a bit... cold. I mean, he died to save her, and then she confronts Bartlow like if she just meet the king for the first time. I don't know, at least show some grief, he just killed your father in front of your eyes. It's important to stay firm as a leader and that stuff, but is your father we talk about. That was just as bad as the seraphs making a party for Alisha after Lunarre ate Maison some seconds ago in the special... Oh, wait, not, I don't think it was THAT bad compared to that scene. At least Alisha hasn't forgot the king. Bartlow's death was also underwhelming, it lacked dramatism. At least show how he fell to his death, that way just looked like if he escaped instead of commiting suicide. |
 |
| finally Bartlow is gone he is an annoying villain im wondering why the king or father of Alisha has malevolence though but he seems still good since he sacrifice himself to save his daughter Alisha and they purified a dragon the first in history eh lol |
| Pretty strange to me, the ep felt a little off as a whole. Liked seeing Rose and Alisha supporting each other. Best part about the ep was without a doubt just listening to Rising Up~ thebrentinator24 said: It's called Rising Up if someone hasn't already told you. By far one of my favorite Zestiria OSTsThe episode got pretty intense toward the end with the whole purification thing. I liked the OST that played during that part as well. |

| The purification scene was good. They are all together now. |
 |
| Nice episode. So long Bartlow. R.I.P Alisha's father. Sorey's Armatization is so cool. And that purification scene with Alisha & Rose was awesome. Cool OST. Can't believe he purified a dragon. |

Googuix said: I don't mind Sorey being able to purify a dragon, but the way they did it was just irrespectful to the Zestiria/Berseria series. I mean, none in the entire history has ever been able to purify one, and sorey just did it on a whim. Well. it's clearly different from the game.In the anime, Sorey has to absorb and purify the malevolence whereas he didn't need to do that in the game. Remember that only a select few possess the Silver flame which is what's needed to purify a dragon. We don't even know if the previous shepherds possessed the flame. |
Theorder14 said: purification and OP-as-fuck armatus only invented after berseria. and number of shepherd and dragon are probably not much after berseria to even had a chance to even fight at all.

| That OST was goooddd.... yay now Edna's bro can be purified without being killed. Lol PV always good. |
| That was a great episode. Never thought they would be able to purify a Dragon. Maybe there is hope for Eizen after all. Been forever since we last saw Symonne, maybe this means we see the lord of calamity soon. |

They have tried before while their technologies were far more advanced. Berseria endgame spoil: |
| Same OST from the game. At least it had that going for it, but yeah... Meh. 4 Episodes for them to beat the final boss? Kek. So much skipped, though that was expected since they were changing most of the material. |
 |
| Okay, as fan of the game myself I have to say that this is the episode where this is starting to get really bad. They have been deviating from the story of the game a lot but this is too much, I don't feel I'm watching Tales of Zestiria anymore... I know the game got a lot of hate for reasons I don't really undertand, but it's that really motive to trash the story and characters like this? As far as characters are concerned, Rose is my favourite character in the game, but here, I'm just not feeling it. It's like, although they have a lot in common, she's a different person... And she's not the only one like this but she's the one who's having a bigger impact on me now, cause I really like her character |

Kamiyan3991 said: Same here. And I rly wanted to see armatized Rose... As this is going we probably wont see it... Rose being badass? nah, that's a game only feature like Dezel having a backstory, Sorey realizing that sometimes he does need to kill, Etna learning that there's nothing that can be done besides to end it, etc. etc. Hey Dezel, Symonne is right in front of you *wink wink* |
| Bartlow dies in a fast and pathetic way, Alisha's father dies and she's OK, Sorey is the super shepherd. Purification scene was visually amazing (as always). I still like the series but it's too "simple" (I don't know which word to use exactly) |
| Quite an intense episode. Alisha wanted to talk to her father, but he got killed trying to save her from Bartlow. The purification scene was epic. Sorey managed to purify a dragon. |

viave44 said: glutton said: I didn't like how Alisha stupidly put her spear down when she should've known Bartlow could be nearby, even if she didn't mean to kill him she could have used it just to defend herself and her mistake actually gets her father KILLED saving her yet she doesn't even act guilty or anything and still puts on a righteous air towards Bartlow after... I guess by the show's logic some old guy's death is no big deal despite him being the king and Alisha's father lol. ah, so this week episode still about alisha ?! hahaha i do not need that, give me back my sorey story and his adorable seraph, cant we just stop or skip this second season please, give me third season already Ufotable, and please stop give us your shitty story about princess crap First half finished Alisha's arc (Ladylake). The 2nd half dealt with a Dragon and Sorey's party... |
