The events are smooth as silk yarn, but the feeling of déjà vu that I had, was because he had seen special, long ago, oh well! Drawings and animations, very good, the abundant use of CG, does not bother me. The soundtrack along with the opening and the ending, are catchy and suitable to the genre treaty in history.

This was really interesting. And that little animal was so cute! Strange how it looked like she couldn't see it?

OH. I forgot that this was dubbed. The Voices threw me off a bit. HAHA. But then I was like, "I recognize these voices." Dude. I have no idea of these series. HAHA. So this is all new to me. I think that I have some friends who really like this series.
omggg. the girl fell through the crack. Broken, the princess is just alone. A little girl tried to run from her but she gets swept up by the wind storm. omg. this is so dark.
THE ANIMATION IS SO GORGEOUS. OMG.
oh. That's the end of this episode.

Quite slow paced, lots of extra monologues, might be ok with the 2 cour. Oh i missed ep0, gonna watch that.
Awesome FLOW. ED feels like LWA fun.
Girl starts with hug knee & sulk pose, must be having a terrible day. Bugs run Sakura! Then she gets tased. And fell down twice where any human would've died the first round but apparently she's fine.
Tho it's clearly cg the bug swarm looks great & creepy (reminds of The Mummy). Ufo background & clouds always look great. Kyoani probably still wins in the water department.
Orange Doraemon is funny. Might be a spirit & she can't see it?
Slaine looks hot, oh he's called Milky now.
Mc's human.
Are u MosesShepherd?
So she's the intruder, while gramps is trying to keep the two boys safe in his territory (is this The Village?).

To be honest, I don't get everything they're saying. Had me thinking that "maybe I have to play the game in order to understand more of this". But I'm not gonna do that.

I don't know if this is because I've seen the alt ver. first, but this episode was incredibly dull as the pilot episode.. The episode, or rather, the series started its first 8 minutes showing a girl out of nowhere exploring the ruins for whatever reason (like why should we care), that itself is a failing grade. It's followed up by bringing in 2 more mysterious characters in a mysterious setting doing more exploration regarding Shepherds and Asgards and shit, like dude, please introduce those characters first.. I don't give a damn about your exploration..

Really, the only intrigue was the beautiful places they were in.. It doesn't make me, as a viewer, want to really spend more of my time on this show (compared to other shows), from watching it's pilot episode aka the introductory episode. (which ironically didn't introduce shit)

It's only somewhat bearable because I've seen the alt ver. and know full well what to expect. Hopefully it gets better because this is gonna be a long ride.

Well that's a pretty dull OP for a fantasy adventure anime.

You are new to Tales series, aren't you?

BTW does anyone know why the Lailah seyiuu was changed in anime? She was voiced in Japanese by Miyu Matsuki in the game and by Noriko Shitaya in the anime.

I think the visuals are pretty bad. Apart from the backgrounds, everything else is more of an eyesore than anything "beautiful".

Pretty solid first episode, hoping for some nice looking Ufotable action scenes in the later episodes

This was pretty much as good as the prologue. A really good and interesting start.

I like the characters and animation a lot.

Also, nice OP.

Pretty close to being identical to the game's opening so far. The animation is gorgeous, and I loved that the preview for the next episode was done in the style of the skits from the game.

I'll be looking forward to seeing where the anime diverges from the game. So far it's pretty neat, though.

I love Mikleo.
