Mikleo winning again was the best part because there were people delusional enough to think he wouldn't

>>158797198
It's one of the worst anime I've ever watched, granted I didn't play the game

Bamco fucked up

This horrifying waste of money was an ego thing.
They didn't want to admit that they absolutely fucked up so hard and so completely with their own incompetent direction so they've been going all in on pretending that abomination was anything but a failure so immense that it killed the IP completely.

This horrifying waste of money that further ruins something that was outright shit is them trying to save face. Breria being a fucking prequel instead of a new game is another way.

The staff were pushing Sorey/Alisha on S1 while downgrading Sorey/Mikleo.

Boring as fuck.
The previews were the best parts of the show.

Too true. They tried too hard to salvage Zestiria instead of just acting like it doesn't exist.

But they can't now. Mikleo is now the most popular Tales Of character so they have incentive to not leave Zestiria behind. Fujos enjoy the homo and will buy the merch so they're gonna milk it while they can.

They even have dakis and figures coming out.

Luke a cute. A CUTE!

>>158798660
That just makes the fact that forced shit like this >>158798729
lead to nothing AGAIN even more hilarious in retrospect

Who were they baiting? Did they know the target audience at all? Nobody gives a shit about Sorey/Alisha together

>>158798783
>Nobody gives a shit about Sorey/Alisha together
I do, not romantically but they are cute friends.

>>158798783
UFO is full of Alishafags and they were desperate to make Alisha relevant. They thought making her the heroine was the safest way and besides, everyone hated Zestiria because Alisha got so little screentime, right? They didn't take in consideration those Alishafags whining about their waifu's screentime were just a vocal minority on 2ch. Probably the UFO guys were part of that vocal minority

>>158798843
>>158798869
It's just stupid Ufo looked at the game's criticism and thought 'wow, people hated this because Sorey didn't bang Alisha!' like anyone seriously gave a shit outside of a minority.

And then they backpedalled entirely in S2 because S1 flopped so hard because of it and went full /u/

>first season focused on alisha instead of the main cast
>second season focused on rose instead of the main cast
>minimal development between Sorey and Mikleo
>instead all development was shifted to Alisha and Rose
>even though Ufotable knew that Mikleo was the most popular character and Sormik was incredibly popular, they added in Sorey x Alisha and Sorey x Rose scenes and minimized Sormik scenes
>filler episodes just to develop Rose and Alisha
>Mikleo has very little lines and scenes
>Edna has very little lines and scenes
>Alisha has very little lines and scenes
>in the finale, which in the game was all about Sorey and Mikleo, Ufotable managed to somehow make Rose and Alisha more important by shoving in yuribait
This anime was a fucking mistake.

>>158798981
>Alisha has very little lines and scenes
Doesn't this contradict what you said?

I think the root of the problem is that Ufo didn't know who the fuck they were supposed to pander to with this anime, and ended up picking the absolute wrongest choice.

It's even more hilarious now that Mikleo was voted #1 Tales character. What massive fuckups they are for making him a literal NPC heroine in the anime. Hell, they forgot Sorey was even the protag or even had a personality.

Whoops, meant Lailah. Both have red designs anyways.[/spoilers]

That's not Legendia. Zestiria has fans and characterfags, while Legendia doesn't have even that.

>>158798566
>drawn by director Sotozaki
He honestly isn't one of the better series directors in ufotable but at least his Symphonia anime got a good influx of staff in

I want to watch it for Alisha and her armatization and /u/ potential but sitting through the rest of the show is too much

Tales games have godawful writing. Especially since I know 95% of the plot from having played the game already, it's unbearable

>>158797198
Focusing too much on Alisha and Rose and not the main character Sorey
Pacing was all over the place in 2nd cour
Most of the show was incredibly boring and did not fix the issues with the story and consistencies that were present in the game, only created new problems
It had so many opportunities to make at least a decent story but fucked it all up again and again
This anime was as much of a disappoint as was the game

They picked one of the shittiest games imaginable to make an anime out of.

>>158801031
Sorey is a really trash MC anyway, not like he could've saved this shit.

>>158797198
The anime's story somehow managed to be worse than the game's.

>the best part of the entire anime was the out of nowhere Berseria shilling
Really makes you think, huh?

>>158802070
Not really. Berseria is one of the best Tales in recent years, while Zestiria is the worst.
