Tales of Zestiria the X is a 2016-2017 anime television series that takes place in a fantasy world filled with magic, heroes, and demons. The show is based on the video game of the same name, developed by Bandai Namco Entertainment and the 15th main entry in the Tales series.

The story follows the adventures of Sorey (voiced by Robbie Daymond), a young man who has been raised by a tribe of magical beings called Seraphim. Sorey believes in a legend that says a great hero will arise and unite humans and Seraphim, thus bringing peace to the land. One day, he encounters a human girl named Alisha (voiced by Alexis Tipton) who is investigating strange occurrences related to the Seraphim. Sorey and Alisha become fast friends, and together with their companions, they decide to embark on a journey to uncover the mysteries of their world.

The series' animation is stunning, characterized by its rich and vibrant imagery. The colorful visuals and smooth animation are particularly effective in portraying the show's intricate battles and magical landscapes. The setting of the show is inspired by medieval Europe, with castles, knights, and kingdoms being some of the main features of the world. The music is also noteworthy, with a mix of epic orchestral and rock tracks that amplify the intensity and emotion of the series' key moments.

One of the unique aspects of the series is the bond between humans and Seraphim. In the world of Tales of Zestiria the X, humans cannot see or interact with the Seraphim unless they have a pure heart. This concept creates interesting dynamics between the characters and often leads to surprising twists and turns in the story. Throughout the series, there is a strong emphasis on the importance of friendship, trust, and loyalty.

The character development is well-done, and each character has their own personality and motivations. Sorey is a kind-hearted hero who takes on the role of protector and guide for his companions. Alisha is a determined and resourceful princess who refuses to back down from a fight. The other members of the group include Mikleo (voiced by Michael Johnston), a loyal Seraphim and Sorey’s best friend, and various other human warriors and magical creatures.

Tales of Zestiria the X is split into two seasons, the first of which mainly serves as a setup for the second. The first season introduces the characters and the world in which they live, as well as the overarching plot of the series. The second season delves deeper into the deeper mysteries of the world, including the rise of evil forces and the true nature of the legendary hero. The pacing of the series can be slow at times, but it is redeemed by its strong character development and engaging plot.

In conclusion, Tales of Zestiria the X is a visually stunning and emotionally engaging anime series that will appeal to fans of fantasy and adventure stories. The series balances action and drama well, while also exploring themes of friendship, trust, and loyalty. The characters are well-developed, and the plot is filled with twists and turns that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats. Overall, Tales of Zestiria the X is an enjoyable and captivating anime series that is well worth a watch.
