In order to prevent the catastrophe called the Grand Fall, Rid Hershel and his companions Farah, Keel and Meredy have obtained the three Greater Spirits ("Craymels" in the game version) of Inferia. En route to Mount Farlos, Rid is kidnapped by the bounty hunter Marone Blucarno, and the party is compelled to head to Belcarnu, an archipelago far from the major cities of Inferia. A series of adventures forces them to remain on the islands, where a more immediate threat to Inferia sleeps. (Source: ANN)

Most people would watch something titled "Tales of" because of the famous video game franchise by Namco. Others randomly come across unique titles such as these. While the video game Tales of Eternia for the Playstation was great, and sold wildly throughout Japan, the anime based off of it is most certainly not. The plot isn't even based off the game, but just has the group of four: Rid, Farah, Meredy, and Keel residing in a town. The story actually starts off while they're ON their journey, basically like a filler. It has nothing to do with the actual story of the game. Whatever "fighting" they havein this anime is really pathetic. You could give it some pity, but it's not interesting at all. They show the others as pathetic, and the main character, Rid as all powerful. How many times do they do that in anime? Instead of making Farah and the others an ounce strong, they made them look completely pathetic. The anime-only characters are stronger than them, which makes this even more pathetic. The Characters were probably the worst aspect of this anime. The characters themselves aren't that annoying, but the character development is. Farah is portrayed as an anxious, jealous girl, while Meredy and Keel aren't shown much at all. Rid is portrayed as his usual lazy self, but they threw in qualities that don't suit his character. Farah in the anime and Farah in the game and manga are so different, it's not even funny. In conclusion, as you look at the aspects of this anime, you can thoroughly observe that this was created solely for fanservice, as they did not even have a point in it. I don't reccomend this anime, especially if you're a fan of the Game/Manga.
Tales of Eternia revolves around the island of Belcarnu, a peaceful and prosperous island nation. The lives of our heroes would be in danger because of a secret organization aiming to destroy Inferia. What makes this series disappointing was the fact that they could have the whole plot in a single one-our-thirty-minute movie. Instead, they just had to stretch it into thirteen episodes. The anime had its saving graces, too. The characters have stuck to their original personalities and the animation is very clear as well. Tales of Eternia is a good watch for all.
This is not a masterwork of anime by far, but it is a fair anime. The show is short, sweet and the most enjoyable part is seeing the game characters more alive. I am a huge fan of tales of eternia for Playstation and i only wished the game was longer once i beat it then i found out they made this anime. Tho the two are unrelated and this is more like a side story to the game, i still just liked seeing the characters so animated. The animations from the game were always to short so i never got a real feel for howthe characters would really be. Its charming to see them come even more to life and see the little expressions they make. If your a fan of the game you may be satisfied like i was if your not you probably will not be as the plot is short, not very intense and is meant more for big fans of the game. Someone who has never played or heard of the game most likely would not enjoy it very much. Use your own discretion but i say fans should watch this if not just to see farahs jealousy and meredys adorable attitude.
