Күн бұрынAll the references and connections I could find between Tales of Zestiria and Tales of Berseria. Most of these connections were found by other people who made posts on gamefaqs and reddit. If you have completed both games 100%, then you'll most likely not find anything new as most of these things aren't too subtle. If you have only played one of the games or didn't pay much attention to side stuff then you'll probably have missed these. Disagree or have more to add? Leave a comment! Hope you guys enjoy!

The Magilou being buried theory is further supported by the Zestiria X anime, in which it's revealed that it was Magilou who told the people about Malevolence, therefore breaking her oath that kept her alive.

Another interesting point to bear in mind regarding the whole "Storytellers" aspect: Bienfu is quoted as being not just one of the greatest normin poets, but THE greatest, in a skit conversation. Wouldn't it be funny if it had been Bienfu writing all the stories down at Magilou's coercive behest? Food for thought :)

It's not about living a long time because she actually did, as a novel Namco released confirms this. We just have no confirmation of it being Magilou because not even the novel confirms this (and the novel goes into quite detailed explanations of even how Rokurou dies and when Eizen turns into a dragon). The anime is 100% non-canon and it should be obvious due to how much they deviated and contradicted the lore (the Dragon purification and the sealing of Heindalfr being two examples, as it is a focal point of Zestiria's story how Sorey has no choice but to kill both the Dragons and the Lord of Calamity, and Berseria makes it clear that the only way to save a Dragon is the power of the gun Siegfried).

You forgot to mention that when you visit the Katz Corner in Zestiria, one of the katz tells you that Maotelus himself visited the Katz Corner 1000 years ago. That turns out to be true, since in Berseria you get to go to the Katz Corner with Laphicet/Maotelus in your team. There's also Dark Turtlez, who turned edgy because of Velvet.

Another possible clue that Magilou could be the person in the tomb: The Mayvin buried in the tomb is described as a poet. Magilou carries a poetry book around (which she claims is Bienfu's poems) and recites a poem to Laphicet. She also makes up a little poem about a frog in one skit.

One thing: If you head to the royal villa in Loegres after unlocking the final dungeon in Berseria, prince Percival tells you that he intends to scrub all mention of Artorius and Innominat from the history books so no one will know what they did. According to Zestiria, he succeeded...partially. History/archaeology buffs Sorey and Mikleo knew nothing of Innominat, but the Empyrean's Throne has been renamed Artorius's Throne so clearly the guy's gone down in history (as a hero, to boot) despite Percival's efforts.
@LeonGun8 5 жыл бұрын
I believe that according to the records in Zestiria the name of Artorius likely remained in existence because during the reorganization of the Church and the Shepards they needed to rally around some form of figurehead "hero" and eventually latched on to the idea of the first person to name himself the "Shepard". He did succeed in erasing the ideals that Artorius held, thus the Shepards being more about mantaining the status quo and free will while purifying malevolence.

When you finish the Ex-Dungeon in Berseria you find out that there is another world called Heaven where Seraphims live. The Malakhim were from that world but got cursed by the seraphim that disagreed with the malakhim who wanted to live with humans. Thus the curse transforming Malakhim into Dragons and Humans into Demons.

Which also means that Heldalf's goal of "returning the world to its original form" by flooding it with malevolence and turning everyone into hellions is based on a flawed assumption, since hellions/daemons aren't their "original" forms. I played Berseria first, so when he said that line I literally facepalmed.

Another fun thing about blonde siblings is that they wear matching gloves (edna wore eizen's right-handed glove while eizen wore the left one, as mentioned in a skit). It is probably given to her after berseria ended since eizen wore both gloves in berseria. Also, note that the wrist part of edna's glove is very loose and edna tightened it with a ribbon, but it fits perfectly with eizen's wrist. Edna wears eizen's shoes too! (also mentioned in a skit). Edna said that her brother fixed the size so it fits her. It make sense since they both are the same design, except that edna's has a buckle on them (to fasten it?) and are shorter. Lastly, Eizen's back has a dragon/evil wings on while edna's has angel wings. I swear to god I love the small details that they put on the designs

I actually really liked how both games were connected despite taking places 1000 years apart. They felt like companion games and gave a bit of incentive to playing both games lore-wise, especially with both games reversing the roles of the protagonist and antagonist. I hope if they do explore the concept again, they do a few things to improve it such as 1.) Not having the game that takes place in the past be released after the most current one (Because playing Zestiria before Berseria can kinda damper your experience with Eizen since you know what will happen anyway despite a subplot about his rotten luck seemingly improving as he travels with Velvet; and 2.) Not recycling the same locations.

The Guide book was included in the JP's collectors edition which Global doesn't have. Even Zestiria had it before. And more like a new game is another prequel, since there were mentions in Berseria's npc about Siegfried (the first oracle), Brunhilt (the prime lord) and Jenisis (the great normin) journeying together. Siegfried is the first to have performed armatization, that's why his gun or the Sorceress Ring (Brunhilt) was needed to get the formula of creating more Divine Artifacts.

Artorius is the first Shepherd to take on the name Shepherd. There was another Shepherd several hundred thousand years before him who traveled with Jenisys, a Normin, and a Seraph named Brunhild (which the sourcerer's ring is named after).
@Meian 6 жыл бұрын
Yep, they were called oracles in the past. The first oracle was Siegfried, the owner of the Sacred Blade which is Brunhilt's vessel. But due to her absence, Lailah made it her vessel, so that also explains that Brunhilt is the original Lady of the Lake.
@LeonGun8 5 жыл бұрын
There's theories that Lailah is merely the latest incarnation of Brunhilt. It's stated in Zestiria, and hinted in Berseria, that a Seraphim's power "moves" to a new vessel of sorts when they are reborn in the Earthpulse. Brunhilt's power reincarnates in Seres as proven by the fact she was able to wield the power of the Sorcerer's Ring, so we can assume that Lailah is born when Velvet released souls into the Earthpulse to awaken the Empyreans. This can explain why EIzen, Zaveid and Edna are all accounted for in Berseria yet Lailah is absent.

@becca1chan8773 6 жыл бұрын
Well another argument for Rose being connected to Eleanor has to do with the fact that she has pretty strong natural resonance connecting her to Eleanor who became the Shepherd after Artorius and likely maintained her resonance. Eleanor's descendants would also potentially have strong resonance from her as Zestiria shows that resonance seems to be hereditary as shown with Mikleo and his family, a family in Lastonbell, Artorius who out right stated that Laphicet would've been born with strong resonance because he had that, and quite possibly Sorey and his family depending if you think Heldalf (implied to be his father in the manga) and or Selene actually had resonance. Plus theorizing that Rose got her resonance via heredity due to being a descendant of Eleanor gives closure to the plot point in Zestiria that pissed off every Alisha fan of her being able to armatize and not have a negative effect on Sorey after making a pact with her.
@JRPGFanatic 6 жыл бұрын
That makes sense. But I was under the impression Rose had high Resonance because she was constantly being possessed by Dezel for a long time. I don't remember exactly where I got this idea from but it might be me misinterpreting something that was said.
@becca1chan8773 6 жыл бұрын
Yeah the game is actually pretty vague so I don't blame you. The game kind of theorizes that Rose had high resonance because of Dezel possessing her. Then it gets revealed by Symmone and Rose that she had pretty high resonance all along (As Rose said herself that she remembers meeting a seraph when she was a kid) but her environment made her deny their existence which Dezel likely took advantage of.
@shadowX50 6 жыл бұрын
I played ToZ a long time ago but I believe its stated somewhere that some people are just born with resonance. I am not sure if resonance is entirely hereditary but I like to believe she was just one of the lucky ones to be born with it. I am going to play ToZ again since I just beat ToB and maybe I can pick up more things.
@dojelnotmyrealname4018 6 жыл бұрын
I think the connection between Rose and Eleanor is actually a stretch. Rose's resonance isn't exactly natural, as it's the result of Dezel controlling her over and over. Actually, at the start of Zestiria it is mentioned that Sorey's high resonance is as a result of him being raised in a Seraphim village. I personally believe Resonance is more your senses very slowly adapting to the presence of seraphim, and that spending long enugh times in close proximity to Seraphim, especially at young age, develops resonance. That being said, Eleanor may very well be related to someone in the Zestiria Universe: Maltran. Note the similar hair color, and while Eleanor was never called this, she was a Dragoon in Azure. We don't really know what Maltran's resonance was like since we meet her as a Hellion anyway.
@LeonGun8 6 жыл бұрын
Actually, the Dezel thing being the reason for the Resonance is just a pet theory the game threw at your for a while. But the DLC and several skits change it around and Rose admits that she had indeed seen Seraphs when she was a kid. That also explains her fear of ghosts, as her high resonance would make her bee able to see both Seraphs AND Hellions, making her thus able to see monsters others could not. Also, it would have been rather impossible for Dezel to freely posess Rose while she was unconcious if she had zero resonance since just becoming a vessel already requires a good amount of Resonance (to the point that even during the 3 years that followed the Advent, when humanity's resonance was artificially increased, only a select few humans could become Exorcists and use Malaks in battle, and even fewer had enough power to become vessels of high ranking Malaks).

One of side quest in Berseria is "Laphicet's Elixir" where you have to find some materials to complete it, In Berseria Elixir is is an ancient potion that no one know how to make it, until Laphicet meet a certain book worm kid and he gave Laphicet the recipe to make it, then Laphicet promise to himself that he someday will make it. Also the dad of bookworm kid is Exorcist that indirectly help Laphicet to complete the Elixir, so that might explain why in Zestria, only the church know how to make it. This Elixir somehow made its way in Zestria as main plot in one of Zestria main quest, also Sorey found one in a forest that could be real one.
@JRPGFanatic 6 жыл бұрын
Hmm, correct me if I'm wrong. When picking up an elixir from a chest in Zestiria, there is some dialogue about how the recipe/method was lost long ago and only Maetolus knew how to make it. At first I thought it was refering to Laphicet's side quest to make the Omega Elixir but the item found in the chest was just a regular elixir. Elixirs existed in both games as consumable items and in Berseria it granted full health and gave 3 souls iirc. What Laphicet made was an Omega Elixir which I thought was more powerful and not the same as the regular Elixir. So I thought the Elixir would be the same thing as nectar in Berseria which I believe only the church knew how to make (I just thought they lost the recipe somehow). Something didn't add up so I didn't include it.

Rose's twin dagger fighting style that shares a slight similarity to Rokurou's Zangetsu style wasn't inherited by her or her family. She was taught to fight using twin daggers by a mercenary leader, Brad, after he became her foster father whom took her in as a young child after he found her alone on a battlefield after her parents were killed. So, Rose has no familial relation to Rokurou whatsoever.

Basically seraphims were the one that didn't believe in humans and stayed away from them by staying in the heavenly steppe while malakims were the one that believed in human and went down to earth to try to live together with them. As a punishment Seraphims created malevolence or rather took advantage of human hatred and made it evolve into malevolence to make it harder for humans and malakims to coexist turning humans in daemons and malakims in dragons. if you look at things that way inominat is not so much of a bad guy compared to the Seraphim since he eats malevolence. So if Maotelus is unable to permanently get rid of malevolence every time he uses the flames of purity at least inominat will be able to eat it away to prevent seraphims from achieving their goals.

While calling it a "reference" is a stretch, I thought it was a pretty cool connection that Artorius' Throne was (basically) the endgame for both games. You see it being built over Berseria due to the location's key access to leylines, which let Artorius complete his end game goals. Then in Zestiria you see the ruins of some old shedpherd no one cares about anymore that have important leylines for the big bad.

You missed the area where a Malak mentions Zenrus as a great Prime Lord and wishes to train under him. As well as mentioned of Siegfried, the first Oracle/Shepherd who travelled with Brunhilt (Prime Lord) and Jenisis (The Great Normin). Siegfried is the first to have performed armatization, that's why his gun or the Sorceress Ring (Brunhilt) was needed to get the formula of creating more Divine Artifacts. Siegfried is also the original owner of the Sacred Blade which is Brunhilt's vessel, which Lailah took it as her vessel due to her absence in Zestiria. So that also explains that Brunhilt is the original Lady of the Lake. The Sacred Sword was buried at the Temple of Trial under the Lake where could be the Temple of Water in Zestiria. Temple of Trials existed way back before Berseria in the era of Avarost to test the Oracles. Those 2 Malaks didn't create the trials, I think you cut some part of their conversation about the test they were saying.
@LeonGun8 5 жыл бұрын
They were discussing the idea for the trials that eventually where created by the Seraphim and the Shepards. ANd yes, Brunhilt was the original Lady of the Lake and the true source of the legend of the sword. Which makes sense since the legend already existed in Berseria's time.

I don'tthink they will meet BUT I can see them making a last Malevolence-series game since they released a big book explaining the lore up to Zestiria just this year. Which kind of felt like they wanted to keep the hype on the Zestiria/Berseria franchise going. It also adds with the fact Berseria was a prequel (with a bonus dungeon which added clues to a future sequel) and Zestiria had that wholeDLC which was basically a "to be continued".

Ah that, I wasn't answering to the rays comment, Rays is developed by a different team that works on the smartphone titles (Rays is not their first one, just the first that got released over here). It's also basically fanfiction so it doesn't matter in the overall franchise. What I was referring to was the lore of the Malevolence series detailing the different eras (many of which Sorey and Grimoirh briefly referenced in Zestiria and Berseria) and adding details to Claudin and the founding of the Meliodias Dynasty, even mentioning that Meliodias was thought to be the first Lord of Calamity. Also,the World Guidance lore says that the Five Great Spirit Lords and Sub Lords appeared 3000 years before Zestiria, with the Shepard helping create the AVarost Dinasty 2300 years before Zesty, and then the Lord of Calamity unifying the Continent 300 years after that. 500 years after that Shepard Claudin creates Asgard and saves the continent from outside invasions,only for Velvet to topple Shepard Artorius during Berseria's time. Basically, the Malevolence timeline is a big cycle of Lords of Calamity and Shepards defeating one another (which is why Artorius wanted to create an eternal utopia to stop the cycle).

LeonGun8 wouldn't this be more intresting in game form. I would love if, say, sorey unsealed innominat thinking it could help save the world, but instead of a lord of the land, he summons velvet. Maybe learn more about leilah, have velvet learn about maotelus *i bet i just mixed those two up* and all the stuff while she was away. Velvet IS my favorite tales character. Id love to see her get to live.

after years i found this video and since i didn't played zestiria i don't know much of these references but i think i have to point one thing about the silver flame in berseria. Rokuro stayed yasha because he choose to. that silver flame Laphicet released to the world in the end gave all humans that turned into demons the "choice" to be cleansed and turn back to human. so most people turned back but those with corrupted mind stayed in their demon form and Rokuro choose to stay yasha because he didn't have any reason to turn back to human. i am not sure but i think he mentioned something like "i killed too much to be human" in some event during the game... but maybe im just mixing memories with another game/novel. anyway nice video!! didn't know many of these references so i really enjoyed it!!

On the topic of connecting Eleanor and Rokuro to Rose, one of the skits in Berseria suggests that Rokuro and Eleanor get together. When Eleanor hears about Shigure's favorite food, she asks Rokuro to take her to where she can eat it. It's a stretch, of course, but it would help explain why Rose looks like Eleanor, and uses dual knives like Rokuro.

Kind of surprised he missed the whole Lord of Calamity reference. x,D In Berseria its shown that Lord of Calamity is a Title and not a Being itself. So the whole story that a New Lord of Calamity is Born over and over again is false because the strongest Monster just earns the Title thats all. So when Helldalf said Sorey will turn into a new Lord of Calamity once he kills him was a flat out lie or he really didnt know any better. Funfact: If a new Lord of Calamity can only be born once the old one is gone then Helldalf wouldnt excist given the fact Aizen ate the Lord of Calamity thaat "ruled" before Helldalf. And given the fact Eizen is by far the strongest Dragon proves that he not only ate him but also gained his power hence why he is so strong and unkillable. Hes pretty much the Dragon of Calamity. That means there were two Lords of Calamity in Zestiria one being Eizen. Another fact: Symonne gave the same Oath Claudin Asgard once gave. However instead of a longer life Symonne asked for immense powers. Instead people dont remember the Oath is to :" never kill anyone".

i feel the descendant of eleanor is the other girl at the start of the game with the spear. most of her side quests and main story related moments are about her and being a mother , mother of kamoana (since she killed her real mother by accident) and then the side quest about getting revenge for her own mother + medissa telling her "she'll know how it works once she becomes a mother one day" which eleanor responds telling how its not in her plans right now but she'll take note. Lots of guy wanted her ass in the whole game as little conversations in NPC , even on the post credits cutscenes , so she feels more likelly to have descendants than rokurou who only fighted demons until the day he was killed.

That would mean only Velvet and Laphicet could make a return since Eizen was killed due to not being able to purify dragons, Eleanor died of old age (she was human after all), Magilou died 700 years after ToB events (on her tomb in ToZ you hear she passed away 300 years ago and about Rokurou that would be kinda to the developers interpretation, on an official book it's said he died fighting daemons hundreds of years after ToB events, but on the games his fate is unknown.

This some cool stuff. I haven't played Zestiria, not sure if I will because I've not heard good things about it. But I did just recently finish Berseria and I love these connections. Evidently there's also reason to believe that Symphonia and Phantasia are also the same world, just much later on and possibly on a different continent (could very well be the eastern continent they reference in Berseria where Siegfried was made and the inspiration for the Van Eltia's design) It makes me wish they would either do something extra to tie it all together officially (and why even though I loved Berseria I typically dislike the concept of prequels) For example the total lack of mention of Velvet in Zestiria - which makes sense since they hadn't come up with her yet, but an updated version of Zestiria, or another game after it that combines the 2 would be sweet.
@gabrielemblem605 Жыл бұрын
Symphonia and Phantasia are "tales" (get it lol) compiled in a book that Laphicet mentions, i believe called "Battle of Ragnarok" or something like that. Basically legends. Symphonia and Phantasia also arent directly connected, but basically use the same lore for the Martell stuff. Is only referencial since the moons in Phantasia are called Sylvarant and Tehe'alla which should not be separated if Phantasia was either a precuel or a sequel to symphonia. Martell and Derris kharlan are completely different things in both games and the Yggdrasill tree is in different places
@gabrielemblem605 Жыл бұрын
Tales games arent directly connected except direct sequels and precuels but the games are used as books, tales or legends in other games. Berseria has also references to other tales like Legendia. There are even characters and artes that appear in all the tales like mandatory cameos like the pirate Aifread or the Indignation attack
