It was a nice end to the trip with all the seriousness, though the initial trip continues with just two friends.

Well it was a decent ending I guess.

Power up Sorey takes down the Lord of Calamity but he has to sacrifice himself or rather hibernate with the Lord of Calamity to purify him completely.

We get a pretty big timeskip showing Alisha and Rose much older and both of them look beautiful. The scene at the lake with both of them looking through the book was nice, Alisha x Rose ftw? XD

There's a new Shepard now?

I guess there was yet another time skip after that to the point where Sorey awakens and him meeting Mikleo again was nice I suppose.

The final scene with Sorey saying "This is the World" was the best and it looked really amazing.
The insert was great. :)

Overall, I'm pretty sure I liked S1 way more than S2, there wasn't as much action in this season and the plot was well okay I guess? Tried to deep or something but didn't really feel that way to me. I was hoping for some Berseria content or a crossover, sadly none of that happened. It was still fairly entertaining I suppose. Can't really compare it to the game cause I never got around to finishing it. :3

7/10 , hope there's a Berseria adaptation some day.

Predictable ending :/ so disappointed . and we didn't see Berseria at all . 3/5 for the episode and 3/10 for the show.... season 1 was way better

PS: first season score started 8.5 and ended 7.57 . the second is 7.57 now too and shouldn't even have 6.
This season must be called : TALES OF SHITTERIA

Yeah, after full month of waiting this was... pretty disappointing. And more shitting on zestiria/berseria lore (talking dragon? Pffff.) I really hoped that, with all time they had, they will do more with animation or script. Or at least i hoped that they will do like A1 done with third season of Wagnaria but no, full length episode with ok fight and lots of talking. Still better than game tho, so plus for that. Overall fine but i've seen better. Still hoping for berseria adaptation.

Best part of the whole season was Rose with long hair and yuribait with Alisha.
The rest... damn, and I already thought the game story was weirdly paced to begin with, ufotable just made it worse

And that didn't feel like an ending at all...

Pretty okay episode, I guess. Get to see lot of characters fulfilling Sorey's wish and carrying on with their lives. Not sure how Sorey got back though tbh and I feel the fight the Lord of Calamity was a bit rushed, for the time we had to wait for the last episode.

The art and music were the highlights though. Gotta love that sunset at the end of the battle before the credits. :D

Damn, Rose is looking good with long hair. I don't think I'd mind seeing some doujins of her and Alisha.

Anyway, decent final fight (I liked the little mashup they did with this season's ED and the previous season's OP) and a decent finale overall, nothing special really. Sorey and Mikleo reunited and got a happy ending as expected. I think the first season was a bit better than this one, 6/10.

Also that final line: This is......

Well , Its a game thing .. A lot of time passes (Rose , Alisha and all the humans are dead by the end) And most likely sorey becomes a seraphim in the end (Thats how they interpreted the games ending on steam)

That said this is a 100x better end than the game since it hints that Eizen might turn back and it elaborates on the Games final scene of Sorey and Mikleo ..

Make an OVA on the Reunite of Zaveid and Eizen pls ..

I pretty much enjoyed the final episode , The show itself was above average but I liked the ending so I think the show was very good (I have played both Zestiria and Berseria)

Are you kidding me? Heldalf did literally nothing. Ufotable just throw some flashy stuff here and there and call it a day.
Anyway, I agree that game storyline is nothing special (somewhat enjoyable tho). But this? This is pure garbage.

in order to completely purify, he had to go hibernate along with the lord of calamity into some kind of spirit realm (because I'm sure Sorey couldn't make it if it's normal realm, he will die starving).

as time pass by, it's already a decades that Mikleo grow his hair, but left Sorey untouched since he sealed himself.
he became a legend of Sherperd who purify calamity, which is nice, I was wondering how people would react when they saw Sorey roaming around after a decades.

so, as Sorey awaken, that's mean both his Squire and other people he knows already dead right?

all that being said, I wish there will be Berseria adaptation..

So it's finally here. The ending .... the best part was that Eizen recognize Edna.
Sorey could be dead and it would be more dramatic. Yuri scene was preety nice but man ... Eizen. I almost cried when i heard his voice. It was like shot in my heart. Still it's 8/10. First season was better. I wonder why they deley this episode.

lol sorry, I forgot to write "several" in front of "decades". I mean, after watching this episode I thought Sorey takes several decades to purify, like 50 years or more, or maybe close to centuries, since he became a legend and it's already spread through the world.

Ok I guess this finale was worth the wait. Kinda nice Sorey actually was back and not just "maybe back" cliffhanger open end.
Also alishiaXrose and soreyXmibo confirmed :D

Next they should do berseria, Im really eager to see it. (Im not gonna play any of the games ever anyway ^^)

I am not sure about the anime but in the game he sleep for sseveral centuries "although he sleep with the white dragon not kitty beard " and he become legend over the time , you can see in the anime as well they talk about him as some kind of Legend PLUS Mikelo share the same design as the end of the game that take place several centuries later

I was thinking the same thing, I'll play it again just to forget that Zestiria has an anime adaptation.

So much wrong in this episode but......................a talking dragon? Meh.

Journey ends, big bad gets saved and starts afresh. There's another Shepard somehow, and Sorey comes back in the end. Oh and the girls form some sort of young ladies club and make weird foods and read books by the river.

Not to say it wasn't a nice ending, but it feels pretty forced to me. So they managed to purify everything in like a few years time and the original duo get to play around in ruins again. Slow clap. Roll credits.

God bless UFO

The ED Journey's End was beautiful af, my Alisha was too, screw NamBan and HIdeo Baba for fucking up Zestiria, the game wouldn't be such a huge mistake if the game's ending was 1/10 as good as this.

Anyway, this TV series was mediocre in general and only meant for fans of the Zestiria game.
Would request to have a new guy handling the script rather than UFO's prez for the Berseria adaption :v

Gonna buy the final volume of Zestiria then, a promised Happy End is what I deserve, god bless.

Well Sorey did reunion with Mikleo, not bad as an ending I'll say

Alisha is still best girl or best queen though

and oh yeah evil/malevolence is needed for humans to grow but just reasonable amount is needed since too much will become destructive

so glad that Sorey understand that fact and not going "im gonna get rid of all evil/malevolence in the world!"
