TALES OF ZESTIRIA SEASON 1 ANIME REVIEW


 

TALES OF ZESTIRIA SEASON 1 ANIME REVIEW
-HIKARU KONDO
(APRIL 17 2018)


OVERALL: 10/10

PLOT: 10/10

One of the most intriguing topic is human nature, for me. Thus, this anime series is unexpectedly good. I thought this will only consist of a normal adventure-action anime tag along with a loli character, a bishounen, you get what my point is. But it is perfect. It has a great combination of reality and fantasy. It contains of deeper views of human emotions, how they think, how they react, how fragile they can be. How a simple misunderstanding can lead to such agony and pain. How weak humans are when it comes to their feelings, their greed which is making the decisions for them. That very thing, that weakness, is what this anime makes into reality. How it can change the world, and can destroy the human itself. This series is interesting. I think it was first release as a game, though I still haven't try it.

CHARACTER: 10/10

Girl characters in an adventure anime is very rare. It became a norm that once a girl takes a role in such genre, they must be protected and looked into. But this series breaks it. No girl needs attention. No girl needs protection. Sometimes, it is great to see a main character who decides for what she really wants with head held high, a brave spirit  which make others follow her. Not that Alisha (Heroine) is the only interesting character in the series. It is all, actually. All of them have that strong spirit in them which allow them to step forward even there are struggles ahead. Well, who said there needs to be a weak ones in a story always? Some of them needs development, yes. It is to grow, to make them more real. But it is not a disadvantage. It is what makes them human. 

ANIMATION AND SOUND: 10/10

There's no doubt that the animation of this series is great. Every emotion is well expressed and every characters animation is close to perfect. The action scenes are also suspenseful and every bit of it looks way too cool. In line with the songs, I don't know but I've always have a goosebumps watching it. It feels like the song is perfectly match up on the animation of it. The way the characters action in that certain song is really awesome it gives me goosebumps. 

ENJOYMENT: 10/10

If it is enjoyment, there's no way I'd deny it. Though I've taken too much time to finished this since there's not much time, every episode is worth the watch. I forgot how many screenshots I've made for this one. It is not heartwarming or anything like that, if described, it is more like an eye opener if it was watched thoroughly. 

ENDING: 10/10

I don't know if I'm just overreacting rating this anime as perfect, but it is for me. Though I know that there are questions that has been kept hanging at the end of this season, I think that it has ended satisfyingly. It is not your normal ending in any action anime, as well as it is also not that overly done. It is quite simple, yet, you will know it is not the end. It can easily be accepted and you will crave for more.

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIE 4 LAST GAME SUMMARY

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIE 4 LAST GAME SUMMARY -TADATOSHI FUJIMAKI When you thought that the story ends after the Winter Cup Tournament, this movie turns out to be the final phase of the story. Well, basketball does not end in one's country. After winning the game, there is no doubt that another player, much more talented, much more better, will go your way. During the movie, American Basketball Team, famous in the field of Basketball visited Japan. A point where all of the members of the Generations of Miracles, along with Kuroko and Kagami, will have to fight them comes. It is a very interesting and exciting movie since it will be the first time showing how they play as a real team. How they realize that there are players who can match up on their level, who can take them head on, that will trigger them to do more than what they are doing. And to depend on their teammates because basketball is a five player game and not one. Well, Kuroko did made them realize that fact. What I find k...

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIES 1 2 3 SUMMARY

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIES 1 2 3 SUMMARY -TADATOSHI FUJIMAKI 1. Movie 1 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Kage to Hikari 2. Movie 2 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Namida no Saki e 3. Movie 3 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Tobira no Mukou Movie one, two, and three is a summarize version of Season one, two, and three. Though unlike the Season one series where it tackles first the plays Seirin made in order to participate in the Winter Cup and Season 2 moving on to the tournament itself, the Movies focuses on the Winter Cup alone and show only a bit of introduction from the Season one series. The movies consist of the highlights and the outplays Team Seirin did in order to defeat every team with a Generation of Miracles member. It is a waste not to watch them but I decided not to. Not because it will be a waste of time but I know that watching it will make my memory jumble. Since I've watched each episodes of all three seasons, I already know how the story goes. But apart from that fact, every bit of extras, no...
