TALES OF ZESTIRIA SEASON 2 ANIME REVIEW


 

TALES OF ZESTIRIA SEASON 2 ANIME REVIEW
-HIKARU KONDO
(JUNE 27 2018)


OVERALL: 8.2

PLOT: 8/10

The first season of this adaptation is really a great one for me. Since it tackles human emotions, the capability of human to destroy things cause by their greed, by their selfishness, it really captures my excitement. However, the continuation of this anime slightly disappoints me. Though it still focuses on what the first one is, there are questions that failed to found its answers. It feels like something is missing. Some valuable explanation has been left unsaid, which I think I can find in the game itself. Still, I like how all of the characters made their way to do the right thing even if it means sacrificing their very existence. 

CHARACTERS: 7/10

The characters are too perfect, now that I think about it. Except for Rose who show her hate, her pain, her loneliness. The main protagonist is too good to be true. He is innocent and kind and good natured that it is too hard to believe. Well maybe, that's the very reason he became the shepherd. The unending forgiveness and understanding. I think, the character of Velvet which belong to a promotional videos (2 episodes) is great. She's like a ravage beast killing someone who stops her objective but also hides her pain using that.

ANIMATION AND SOUND: 10/10

There's no doubt that the animation is great. The action scenes are really something and the angle of it are very well shown. The voices of the character perfectly matches the expression they're making, it's incredible. It's song is catchy and entertaining to listen to, you'll be persuaded to watch it. 

ENJOYMENT: 9/10

Naturally, I really enjoyed it. Apart from the fact that is has an almost perfect animation, it's story is really interesting. Though I can't really think of a genre much more interesting than humans' mentality. The one thing that's really aggravating is the hanging questions of mine which I really don't get an answer to. 

ENDING: 7/10

Combining all of the seraphims in one body is kinda lame, sorry. It's cute though. Maybe it will look cool if after that fusion, something new will come out of it. Like a new skill or what? Like something unexpected will draw out of it. That's just my opinion. But the real question of mine is why it ended like that? It feels like I'm watching a shounen-ai and yuri in the end. There's no need to be that close, isn't it? Or did they really ended up together?

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...
