Great friendships, excellent combat, a touch of over the top romance. Combat is a bit complicated but well explained, unfortunately it still has very minor flaws. Story is good, the writing is a bit cheesy. This is my first tales game and I'm in love with the concept. If you like a little soap opera mixed with your action and anime this is probably a 5 star game for you. For me it's a strong 4 go check it out.
