Actually you can watch this episode subbed here. Quality is bad, though. I watched only few bits. That scene with Lloyd remembering some moments spent with Kratos was really moving and then Lloyd called Kratos "Father" I almost started crying from joy. ^^
I will watch all epiosde when normal quality will be available. ^^

Derpa herp clichés and shizz, but okay, this was kinda good.
Felt good to have some difference from the game as well, since it provided some suspense from not being entirely sure what would happen next. Well, except that the main plot points were the same, obviously.
Also, needs more Sheena.
Oh and, the ED is full of win.
Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile.
Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(゚Д゚щ) Nope™, probably not.

Lloyd seemed like a pansy in the beginning of this episode. XD but that's all good. That's why I love our little emotional Lloyd.

Is it bad that I still have a freaking heart attack whenever Lloyd finds out Kratos is his father? When Kratos saved Lloyd from being smooshed... Oh my, I thought I was going to die it was so cute.

And the ending is freaking amazing. I can't wait to find the full version. This song (along with the other ending) makes this anime! I wonder what it is called. (never mind, I'm just blind)

A lot less happened then what I had hoped.
Then again, I have not played the game in a couple years so I don't really remember how much they have to go through still.

Nonetheless, it was a pretty awesome fight from the get-go and hearing Collete's voice in what seemed like forever was quite the treat. Now to wait for the worlds to be united.

- Divine Judgment.

And there was me hoping that the thing would end after this one but nope.

Gonna be another year + wait for the next series to be finishing assuming the first ep is out in 3 months =(

Amazing OVA, it was overall better than the first one. It had great action and fighting scenes; the character development was top notch, they develop Sheena very well in this OVA, as for the introduction of Zelos, Presea and Regal, which was very well done. Music was very good and the ending song was fantastic. Lloyd was Lloyd as usual, but nevertheless enjoyable to watch. Kratos and Yggdrasill where bad-ass. Have to say that this was indeed a very well done OVA.

As I did with the first series, really enjoyed it, but it wasn't something that made me crazy.
I just hope that we don't have to wait 3 years more for the continuation =__=, it's getting really annoying. C'mon ufotable!

My words exactly. Especially with Zelos, I done all the different plot lines and Zelos personality portrayed in the OVA was perfect, especially his dark moments in the OVA. Even though he normally plays a laid back character, the OVA still showed that he has some in-depth problems about him being the Chosen which were portrayed much better than I thought they would in the OVAs.

Yeah, it's going to be like another 2 years for when the continuation will happen. I think by then Nana Mizuki will have another album and we might get treated to new song of hers in the opening, which I'm hoping for but that is a long time from now.

For some reason I liked the first series more, but the Tethe'alla chapter was still very good. I haven't played the game, so I can't wait to see how the story ends...in 2015...

That's the only bad thing, no status or release date for the the last OVA and probably it will take like 2 to 3 years to see the end. BTW the only thing that I wished the Tethe'alla OVA had was the opening song from the first OVA, Almateria. That song is epic, never gets old.

Yes! Started the episode with a lot more artes and a freaking Hi-Ougi, and Zelos actually used the same incantation for Divine Judgement as he does in the game! Woot!

Bleh, I was kind of expecting Rydol(?) to berserk himself like he did in the game. Nice to see that they kept the way Colette regains consciousness the same as in the game.

The Bishop is a nice d00d? lolwut?

FLANOIR! Except it's riddled with plot advancements. Looks like they bypassed Ozette altogether.

Now to wait another 2 years for the United World arc...WHY?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Was a pretty dramatic episode. Story is a little all over the place but still good. Zelo's Divine Judgement was alright, i liked Genius Prism Swords a bit more, sadly, they weren't helpful this episode.

Next OVA... end of the year... Lol. Enjoy the wait.

Woohoo, finally Mithos makes an appearance : D!
I can't wait to see more of him~ <3

I think my favorite parts of this episode all involved Zelos. I feel like there should be more heard from pertaining to his back-story. Especially his relationship with his sister... I don't even remember if this anime even gave him a sister but EH, doesn't matter cause we'll probably not be able to see anything about it anyway.

Again this OVA had everything in it. Emotional moving moments, epic fight scenes and lots of unanswered questions...
I thought this episode was really good though and the Llyod/Kratos was done well, i feared it might stray into too much cliche.
I'm definatly looking foward to the third set of OVAs and wondering which side Zelos is really on. xD
And the sister thing at the end...

This was definitely a pretty good episode and a great way to wrap up this ova. They didn't rush it to much, they dedicated most of the time in revealing all the dramatic events in the dragon nest and about the mana cannon. Though i very vaguely remember the games story line cause its been so long. But if i remember right some of these events that happend in the dragon nest, such as the mana cannon. Weren't these supposed to happen much later. I just feel as though there combining a few major plot points into one scenario.

Although it wasn't bad at all. I should of known they would of saved the last events of the ova with the flanoir scene. That was one of my favorite scenes and for those of you who have played the game. These scenes are actually the determining factor on how to receive the different endings in the games storyline. In this case, they went with the original "collette and loyde" event on the balcony. But there is actually alot more scenes you can view on the balcony in the game with other pariings, such as zelos and sheena, or genis and presia. These events it self is what ultimately changes the ending of the game in some way.

And at last they reveal Mithos at the very end. Can't wait to see more of him. Though correct me if im wrong, but wasn't his appearance supposed to be much later in the game. I forget. Anyways the ova was definitely better the the first in a multitude of ways, for one, they shown alot more character interactions with the different characters and explored depth with some of the characters such as zelos and presea's back story. Also the fact that this ova had some of the better events in the game which makes it definitely more interesting. Though unless they plan on combining certain events or moving the story at a pretty rapid pase. I don't see how they will be able to finish everything. There is still quite a bit more to reveal and one more ova of 4 episodes just doesn't seem like it will be able to cover everything in great detail. So im kind of worried bout that. I hope it doesn't turn out like ova 1.

Well i give this ova a 7/10. Better then the first ova.

WHEN NXT SYMPHONIA???

Anyone else just laugh at how soap opera Lloyd was getting?

But seriously, I don't even know how they are going to finish these last OVAs. I hope they don't spend an entire ep with Genis/Mithos bonding. I want some bloody battles dangit. I will also be marveled if the anime can actually explain the TOS ending so that we can actually understand wtf happened.

And wrap things up where they rescued Colette and saved her from her cursed fate. Wonder where Kratos is going now and what is up with Zelos at the end...

That was a great OVA special from Ufotable about the Tethe'alla Hen arc story and saving Colette. Much more better then the 1st arc of the story. We get to see a lot of character development, amazing action scenes, glorious animation, OSTs, and likable characters. Though again the story was sort of rushed and Colette received less screen time in here as well as Kratos though :(. Overall my score is 8/10

Collete successfully returned to her original state. Her smile, her petite body. Damn! So cute! Everyone had their badass time, especially Zelos when he slayed that huge dragon. Thats great. But, damn, his last line with that Yugu angel subordinate sounds wrong and full of mystery. Whats the real intentions of him?

Sheena blushing looked pretty much wrong. Well, maybe its just her awkwardness expression toward that appreciation. Lol. Meanwhile, Kratos seemed to get so his hands full for the next arc. He must chose the right side, and shall open all of his feeling. Because i may sure the next will be the last time to meet him.

Don't worry, everything will be cleared out when the time has come, right. However, for more important matter, the next goal, its to united the two worlds, will possibly become their last journey. Its already been decided after two different chosen one group up under one command. Can they concluded everything in one next arc?

I can't believed i am watching this in one year gap, lol. So, the next arc will get its watching time the next year, eh? Possibly. So, for this one, i shall be honest that this is an improvement from the previous ova. I can't help but enjoy this little thing. Its not just because its additional casts, but also their decent pacing this time. Even though i am still dissagree for a certain scenarios, but its fine. A minor plot can't be blame my enjoyment toward this little game adaptation.

So, for the short, i shall give my honest opinion at my 8/10 without any much complain. Collete adorable smile shall just be enough for all the negative matters in this ova.

Still sort of made out the storyline, so i enjoyed watching.
