All right, I apologize for making assumptions about the parts of Tales of Vesperia that you found compelling - I know quite a few who really liked Estelle's character for some reason and saw that sequence as a big turning point that made her awesome, somehow. I also thought it was trite, and not really worth the budget they blew on animating it. But to return to the point, the part I mentioned with Sed? That shit broke my heart. If it didn't break your heart.... it just didn't. That's all there is. That doesn't mean it isn't heart-breaking! It just didn't break yours. |
Don't get me wrong, I love Estelle, I just didn't like that scene. Its better in Japanese though. The words were still super corny but the jp voice acter made it sound pretty ok.
As for Sed, I've heard that sh*t so many times in different animes and jrpgs that I really didn't find it any special. In fact, most of these so called "emotional scenes" in LO I found really corny. In particular, the scene where Kaim & Serah reunited, GOD that was soooo corny. I mean, I understand that they haven't seen each other in like 30 years or so but serious, how many times did Serah have to say "I knew there is only one man in this world I loved". She said that sh*t like 5 times man. And then you found out that she doesn't even remember his ass but only knew him through her little journal, serious WTF. She was such a dry character to me. Meh, alot of the characters form LO were dry to me, espeically that king dude (you see, I can't even remember his name, thats how forgettable he was). And WTF was up with Sed calling Seth momma all the time? That was freaking sick man (good thing my good friend Jansen called it out). I use to go to this nursing homes that my mom worked at, and the elderly there acted very similar (except, the nurses they called momma of course, was not their momma). Blah, forget my ranting.
