Synopsis

Tragedy strikes the lives of Cless Alvein, a young swordsman, and Chester Barklight, a young archer, as they return to their village of Totus to find it razed to the ground by the mysterious Black Knight. To take over the world, the Black Knight seeks to claim the power of the Demon King, Dhaos—sealed away by the ancestors of Cless and a young cleric named Mint Adnade. Dhaos' reawakening signals not only the end of the Black Knight, but potentially the world. Cless and Mint must now journey a century into the past to rally allies capable of vanquishing the Demon King once and for all.

Tales of Phantasia The Animation follows Cless and Mint's journey through time to long ago, where they forge an alliance with the half-elf sorceress Arche Klaine and the summoner Klarth F. Lester. Together, they strive to defeat Dhaos and his army in saving the past as well as the years to come.

The Tales series games have made welcome additions to any RPG aficionado's collection since the 16-bit era. Every single installment I've played has been, at the very least, good. Not surprisingly, a lot of the Tales games have received anime adaptations. So, where should you start when looking at these adaptations? How about with the original Tales game, Phantasia.

The story in the OVA is close to the story in the game. A demon lord named Dhaos is revived at the expense of two villages and two young people, Cress and Mint, are sent back in time to find two magic users to bring back to ...

This anime is based of the game: Tales of Phantasia for the GBA (and PSP).
As you can see it only has 4 OVA and that's where my dissapointment is mainly based on.

The game has about 40 hours of gameplay and because I played it already I could at least understand the story, but good chances are that someone who didn't play the game will be confused quickly.

Now you see where I'm going with this. The animation was (probably) made to promote the game ...

Have you ever seen an anime so bad that it's entertaining? This is one of them.
I wanted to like this, I really did, but eventually it didn't feel like even the anime took its job seriously anymore, so why should I?
I LOVED the game tales of phantasia, and was looking forward to watching its anime version, even if rushed.
Rushed? No. It wasn't in a rush, it never even tried to adapt the game, instead choosing to focus on side-characters and animate huge scenes that were never in the game to begin with.
It adapted exactly 1 scene from the game in total, which it changed severely.
