Tales Of Eternia (Series rating: 6/10)

Two world exist, mirroring each other: Inferia and Celestia. The worlds can see each other, but cannot interact. Until now. On Inferia, Reid , Farah and Keele have been friends all their life. One day, out of nowhere, a strange girl falls from the sky in front of them. This girl speaks an unknown language. She’s Meredy, from Celestia. And she’s there to seek help in stopping what could be the end of both worlds: the Grand Fall. The two worlds are set to collide with each other and kill off every living thing. It’s up to them to stop it. But along the way they stop off an exotic island to have a side-adventure: this anime.

If I said it was based on the video game it would be a stretch. This literally IS a side-quest. On the bright side you don’t need to know anything about the game other then the synopsis in order to enjoy the standard fantasy adventure anime. It does look pretty good, but I’m biassed because I love this aesthetic. There’s nothing wrong with the show, but it’s a fairly standard story. Some fights, some comedy and a flimsy story to string it together. You’ve probably seen this 100 times, but if you’re in the mood for some 00’ anime, why the hell not?
This is a TV rip. It’s quite rare when anime is re-aired on Japanese TV. Even better when the TV rip looks better then the DVD. The video is from Reinforce. The subtitles, on the other hand, I have no idea where they came from. I got them off a Russian website. It’s funny because the crappy DVD rips I had of this (which removed the OP and ED) had a disclaimer at the beginning saying that they have no clue where the subs came from either. Anyway, I think these are the same subs that were posted in a now dead link at the Reinforce torrent. Enjoy.
