Tales of Zestiria the X

Amazing anime if you are really into fantasy and beautiful animation! Sorey, Alisha Diphda, Rose, and the seraphs are amazing characters. The concept, the characters, the music, and the animation is what this anime is about! Highly underrated and unforgettable!

Show not tell when characters talk about how painful it is to purify a dragon (which could not be done in the games, not sure why they changed that) they should have relied on animation to show their struggle. Also added the plots of Alicia and Berseria in it. Just one problem. Tales games are about character development/dept more so than the plot.

just a quick note to say that I am reviewing this anime after watching only 13 episodes. but usually I can tell if a show is going to capture my attention from at least episode 6. but sad to say this one hasn't really done that. saying that I still have faith in it and will continue to watch it until at least the end of the first season. I don't know if anyone else felt the same but I found the story a bit hard to follow at times. I thought the action was really good but the main thing this show has going for it is the visuals. The beautiful scenery, the uniforms and the buildings had a deep attention to detail. even though I still think the pace of the show didn't capture me I still appreciated it's beauty.

Now there will be some people who have watched Tales of Zesteria the X disagree with me,but still it's unique in it's own way.It has one of the best animation.The story takes time to understand but eventually you'll understand it.There will be times that you may wanna quit watching it because I did the same till 6 episodes.My brother watched it too and He didn't get what is happening till 12th episode.Still it has it's own plus points.And has a decent ending.

And one more thing it does not show any kind of Love relationship between characters.Its kind of friendship and support type based anime.It has some funny moments but it's less. I don't regret watching this anime.

Intro: Tales of Zestiria the X:2 continues telling the story of a young man and his group of friends that are doing their best to save and clean the human world of evil. This anime reminds me of the trilogy "Lord of the Rings".

Plot: 5/10 The plot is not one of this series's strong points. Tales of Zestiria the X presents the story of a young man named Sorey, and his group of friends who are doing their best to save the world. At first the plot is slow paced but as the story progresses it picks up the pace. I see no point for ep 5-6, since it adds nothing to the plot.

Characters: 6/10 The characters are fairly generic, they do not get much character development but they are likable.

Animation: 10/10 The animation and art are splendid, truly mesmerizing. One of the best animations I have ever seen. Just by looking at a few scenes you can imagine all the work that was put into the creation of this anime. Tales of Zestiria the X is produced by the studio Ufotable, a studio known for its high quality production.

Sound: 9/10 The OST is great as well, it deepens the emotions and perfectly blends with the animation. The opening theme is highly enjoyable, the ending theme is decent.

Enjoyment: 7/10 The fight scenes and the backgrounds are stunning but the story itself is nothing memorable.

Overall: 7/10 Even if the plot and characters are nothing special, the show is worth the time just for the animation and sound. I recommend this anime to anyone who is looking for eye candy and wants to find out what high quality animation looks like.
