Description: Fonons. Essential components of all matter on planet Auldrant.

Ages ago, a new type of fonon was discovered—the Seventh Fonon. Its discovery threw humanity into chaos, for if one could use the Seventh Fonon, one could learn the future. Wars over the Seventh Fonon raged across the lands, ending only when the miasma—a poison from within the planet—covered the entire world. This is when Yulia appeared.

A fonist skilled in prophecy, Yulia saw thousands of years into the future and foresaw a way to seal away the miasma. With the guidance of her prophecies, humanity sealed the miasma deep within the planet.

Over two thousand years passed.

The world is ruled by Yulia's prophecy, known as the Score. People believe in the coming “unprecedented prosperity” promised in the Score, never straying from the path set forth in the Score which will lead them to that prosperity. They look to the Score as revealed by the Order of Lorelei, the religion Yulia founded, and hold that the greatest virtue is to follow the Score faithfully.

Yulia's Score tells of a young man who is necessary in order to bring “unprecedented prosperity.” His name is Luke fon Fabre. An heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Kimlasca-Lanvaldear, he was kidnapped as a child by the kingdom's enemy, the Malkuth Empire. Since his return he has been confined to his family's manor for his own safety. He has no idea of the evil that now draws close.

Based on the role-playing game of the same name by Namco Tales Studio.

I'm still hopeful Wings of an Angel or somebody would finish the translation on this manga. It deserves to be finished. : ) I enjoyed the anime more than the sometimes-sloppy-art manga, it'd be great if I could get the game one day. :3
The anime is epic!
I liked tales of the abyss. Sure Luke was a whiney bitch for half the game but, once he mans up he goes "suicidal soldier on a mission" and that's pretty cool.
2 pages in English ?
mieu is cute >_<!!!!!!

and luke it's a tsundere xD
the tales of animes are horribly rushed but their games are incredible.
The TotA anime was probably one of the shittiest animes I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot.
All the melodrama simply ridiculed the characters. I mean, every single character had his own oh so terribly tragic sob story, with the purpose of what, making the audience stop caring? I was almost expecting a hamster to pop up, and tell a gruesome story about it's experience in jail. "A heart-wrenching story about murder, bromance, betrayal and lots of buttlove. Coming to a theater near you."

Well, if you enjoyed it, good for you.
But me, I found it incredibly tacky and will stay the hell away from the 'The Tales of...' series.
Cheers.
@Ditzuha ya i agree what you say. the anime was rushed and I think they could do a lot better but I haven't finished watching the anime kinda stopped half way through. I kinda didn't like how they looked in the anime. I like how they were drawn in the anime cut scenes in the game even they there were barely much but I still like it.

Dang now I feel like playing again. Time to finish my 4th play through (I'd be on my sixth if my MC didn't corrupt on me) and finally get Guy's second mystic art.
The anime has a rushed feel, especially if you put at least around 200+ hours, including New Game Plus. Xx--Phoenix--xX has not played the game. Heck, the anime makes the boss fights ridiculous, if compared to what you had to go through to beat them in the games.

Besides, the Mystic Artes were not presented in the anime as they should be in the game.

It just so happens to be not his type of anime.

Personally, I can imagine A LOT of anime (Bleach, One Piece and Naruto) that deserve to be called lame before EVEN considering Tales of the Abyss to be lame, although I will admit the anime version cannot compare to the game version.

How many anime or manga storylines do you see the MC mess up as bad as this one and man up?
My personal favorite out of the "tales of" series. Seriously hate the line "I'm sorry" after a certain one >.>
@Xx--Phoenix--xX

* awww common!!!!! you can't call it lame!!!!.......the "Tales of" series are one of the most popular RPG games in Japan.....in fact...... they are just as popular as "Final Fantasy" Games.

* ¬¬ and the anime is good.....(ofcourse this last thing is my own personal opinion).....the story is just as good as the one that the game has.
The description sounded nice but then after reading it i realised that it was that lame anime that my cousin told me to watch.
