Thanks! I really enjoy when people appreciate the effort to do more than a literal translation :D There's accuracy in literally translating but beauty in adding new things. In fact, most localizations out there are hardly literal (for any game). Glad it helps a lot!
@@360Blader yeah, Rebirth and Destiny DC are the top of the list of Tales games that need to be localized (Destiny 2 would also be nice and a port of Phantasia X too)
I doubt we’ll ever get another 2D Takes game except for a fan game or two or a rerelease/remaster. 3D models are fine. But Bandai Namco, I beg of you, Tales of 2D remasters in the vein of FFPR, please!
Jean Luis Jimenez Things are pretty great with work for me right now so Im very good XD Thanks a lot for the kind words! Never imagined to impress people to remember these lol
@@Kevassa Que bueno escuchar eso!, Por cierto, ahora me recorde que hablabas español y comentaste mi video de Dissidia por esos dias, que fue inspirado en tus compilaciones, alla por 2009, fueron buenos tiempos XD
Just a clarification, I believe Eugene's is the force of steel/metal. The force of earth belongs to a lesser antagonist called Donnell, who can create clay automata.
@Liddell1988 Well, it's not meant to be a 1:1 translation. Some stuff was misheard (specially boss quotes) but others were intentionally changed (Celsius Calibur) to add impact.
@Liddell1988 Again, things like "give/grant us a miracle" to "grant us the power to bestow a miracle" or "the power of water" to "power of the oceans" were made intentionally. Some others were misheard, like comply to your appeal or Eephon's line which was -entirely- misheard, as well as Milhaust's.
@InternationalGamer1 Excuse me, but I think you are mistaken. Thousand Braver is a reference to Barbatos' Genocide Braver, both which in no way look like Cloud's Braver, at least from the top of my head (and dissidia, which made it a thrust). I don't see why it should call be called a copy
Kevassa I don't know how close the literal translation of Shouha Rekkousen was, but your version of it was awesome. c: I love watching your hi ougi videos because they remind me of all the fun I had playing the games and using them during the dire moments. They also help me out when I do cosplays so I greatly appreciate them. :D
1:01- Namco should've written this dialogue as: "Transcending history, and the world..." "A tale of souls and swords, eternally retold!" "Hi-ougi! Soul Calibur!"
That’s some Marvel vs. Capcom or NeoGeo Battle Coliseum shit right there. Those special attacks in ToR (I don’t know specifically how to pull them off but I have a few times, is it random?) are like those tag specials in 2 on 2 fighting games.
@Teremei Oh yes, if you meant PS2 era, then we did get kinda shafted, graphically speaking. Destiny R and Rebirth are gorgeous while Legendia and Abyss are...decent at best graphically
@Teremei Hey, we did get the only (as of now) HD Tales and Tales of Graces which isn't all that bad. I love em sprites though, so I kinda understand you.
@laharl95 Claire wasnt playable in RM2, either, she isnt supposed to have force, and in 2/3s of the game its impossible for her to use force, even if she wanted to, due to plot specific issues
this is one of THE best Tales of Hi Ougi Exhibition I have ever seen. This video rite here is the shit. REAL TALK DUDE. GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Liddell1988 Though I have to agree some choices, looking back, were a bit too extreme :p I still prefer to treat translations as localizations rather than transliterations.
@Kevassa02 I know I just meant at THAT time, Rebirth was the prettiest of them all and it didn't come over. I'm importing it anyway. But I plan to support tales as much as possible. That's why I'm buying Tales of the Abyss 3D and Tales of Graces F day one.
@Liddell1988 Yes, I will compy with your appeal was extreme, among others, but honestly considered the horrors I had to go through to translate this the final product was pretty decent. I know you're acting at the best of your interest, to contrast meaning with translation, but you also have to factor all the difficulties with doing an ear-to-ear translation, that I'm not native japanese or native english and that this isn't really a paid official work translation.
You mean the phrase for Celsius Calibur, right? It's "その身に刻め", or Sono me ni kizame. I didn't take a literal approach to the translation but rather trying to translate the impact. Kizame can mean a couple of things, one of them is engrave/chisel/etch/record memories.
@Barrylocke Well I had a lot of fun playing them and I don't know the language. I was pretty eager to play them, so in the end, the language didn't mattered.
Damn Bro. I hope Life Bottle also translates this. Because Rebirth has been in my waiting list like 13 years already, just as much as Destiny does but am already playing it thanks to them.
@SeraphimSwordmaster Oh thanks! This is one of the exhibitions I worked most on, along with ToD2 and ToH., but unlike those 2 it never got that many views :X Im glad someone at least liked a lot
Sweet. NDX does look like a really good pick-up. On the topic of Phanttasia, would you recommend against buying the GBA version for my collection? The one escort title I really want but can't figure out how to get a hold of is Tales of the World: Tactics Union. Looks really fun but you can't import a Japanese download game. :/
I love how all the enemies get these minor mystic artes then the dragon gets a friggin laser beam. XD Are there any remakes of Rebirth like how Destiny DC has a PSP remake (or at least I think it does... Stahn's sister becomes a playable character in it)?Because it would be so much easier to import it on a non region locked system rather than have to import a PS2 /and/ get a outlet converter. I've also heard it would only work with a Japanese tv as well but I don't know the truth behind that.
They will be unlocked once you get all six party members and they trigger ocassionally at the end of a fight. There's a very convoluted way the game uses to calculate it but that's the gist of it
@Liddell1988 Yeah, I'm aware of their transliterations. As I said, I wanted to change them to add impact and a different message. I don't like doing 1:1 translations.
ToD DC is PS2 exclusive, mind you. But ToR, ToE and ToD2 have PSP ports. They are much easier to find from what I understand so that should be something :)
Oh, whoops. Well, in that case, thanks for the awesome videos. Your subs are pretty awesome which is why I asked. XD Side note, but it's bothering me to no end. I KNOW I've heard this song somewhere, but I can't remember where. What song is it?
ToR in PSP was a great game, as well as other Tales of games, i always wanted to play every one, but i couldn't even finish Totw Radiant Mythology 2 (which i'm playing right now). I plan on getting back to ToR and ToD 2 soon, hope i get the chance ^_^
I remember a comment about Annie getting Infinitia Strike instead of Ryuuko Metsugazan by mistake and I just tried to imagine her doing Infinitia Strike and... oh god... LOLOL.
I really recommend a PSP if you like Tales. RM3 and NDX are pretty good PSP exclusive Tales games! Plus NDX comes with the best version of Phantasia :)
celcius calibur uses the sword that celcuis fights with in some games and for ryuko metsajin the phrase sodo mi no kizare is i will obliterate your soul NOT i will engrave your soul
0_0 wow Celsius Calibur actually uses Soul Calibur, and here I thought something was wrong with my Radiant Mythology 3, but why won't it turn into Soul Calibur in Graces f...oh well gotta love cameos!
Loved it dude!!! This is one of the underrated jewells of the series (algongside with Eternia)
Thanks! I really enjoy when people appreciate the effort to do more than a literal translation :D

Glad it helps a lot!
The job was done with a sense of responsibilty. You are truly the best.
This. This is why we need more 2d sprite tales games.
@Rýgon Nah, we literally need fan translation for Tales of Rebirth and Destiny (PS2), Tales of Arise looks fine though.
@@360Blader yeah, Rebirth and Destiny DC are the top of the list of Tales games that need to be localized (Destiny 2 would also be nice and a port of Phantasia X too)

that was really nice :D
good job on the editing.
Oh shit Veigue has Soul Calibur.
Kevassa, after all this years I still love your Hi Ougi compilation man XD hope you are fine :D
Jean Luis Jimenez Things are pretty great with work for me right now so Im very good XD Thanks a lot for the kind words! Never imagined to impress people to remember these lol

This was an awesome video. The music you used was really cool too. Very Nice job! :)
Just a clarification, I believe Eugene's is the force of steel/metal. The force of earth belongs to a lesser antagonist called Donnell, who can create clay automata.
Yeah this is one of the (many) mistakes and assumptions I made back then lol
The force is strong with this one
@Liddell1988 Well, it's not meant to be a 1:1 translation. Some stuff was misheard (specially boss quotes) but others were intentionally changed (Celsius Calibur) to add impact.
Thank you very much! Its rare to see some Rebirth lovers, its so underapreciated :(
Awesome exhibition, Kevassa. Rebirth is definitely my favorite Tales game.
@Liddell1988 Again, things like "give/grant us a miracle" to "grant us the power to bestow a miracle" or "the power of water" to "power of the oceans" were made intentionally.
Some others were misheard, like comply to your appeal or Eephon's line which was -entirely- misheard, as well as Milhaust's.

There a 1080p resolution for HD. Which is the highest HD quality out at the moment.

WOW that Blue Earth was crazy! nicely done!
Funny to get this recommended 15 years later... Well the game does have a fan translation now too, so nice.
@@doniarts I was in high school when I uploaded this lmao so yeah
1:01- Namco should've written this dialogue as: "Transcending history, and the world..."
"A tale of souls and swords, eternally retold!"
"Hi-ougi! Soul Calibur!"
Can't wait till I finally get around to playing this game.
@videowatcher4eva The track is in the credits
That’s some Marvel vs. Capcom or NeoGeo Battle Coliseum shit right there. Those special attacks in ToR (I don’t know specifically how to pull them off but I have a few times, is it random?) are like those tag specials in 2 on 2 fighting games.

Lunatic Tears by Ayane on a Tales of video. Never expected this.

Thanks dude, I am really happy you liked it
I like how you can go Marvel vs. Capcom on the finishing moves. How do you pull it off or is it random?
@wiseSYW
That's Veigue's hiougi in RM3. But it transforms instead into Soul Calibur. I'm serious.
Aw Veigue, can't you do a Ryuukou Metsugazan by yourself like Reid? But, still awesome though. XD
this is one of THE best Tales of Hi Ougi Exhibition I have ever seen. This video rite here is the shit. REAL TALK DUDE. GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Liddell1988 Though I have to agree some choices, looking back, were a bit too extreme :p

@LhantAsbel It´s in both consoles
@Kevassa02 I know I just meant at THAT time, Rebirth was the prettiest of them all and it didn't come over. I'm importing it anyway. But I plan to support tales as much as possible. That's why I'm buying Tales of the Abyss 3D and Tales of Graces F day one.
@laharl95 Um, there hasnt been any official anouncement about that. Maybe you heard there was a fantraslation in progress
@declinefan Lunatic Tears by Ayane pretty sure it plays through the whole vid. ^_^
Whatt do you guys like better. Tales of Rebirth, Tales of Eternia, or Valkyrie Profile.
@Liddell1988 Yes, I will compy with your appeal was extreme, among others, but honestly considered the horrors I had to go through to translate this the final product was pretty decent.

All bosses but Yuris is PSP, recorded by ryuhiroshi as mentioned in credits.
whats that song played at the beginning
Thanks omega!
Your exhs are a real inspiration too... specially the ToS2 one
@laharl95 There hasnt been any important rumors about it (not enough to make it well known), I think that what you heard was mostly fake information
Damn Bro. I hope Life Bottle also translates this. Because Rebirth has been in my waiting list like 13 years already, just as much as Destiny does but am already playing it thanks to them.
@SeraphimSwordmaster
Oh thanks! This is one of the exhibitions I worked most on, along with ToD2 and ToH., but unlike those 2 it never got that many views :X

What is the name of the song? in the begining
1080p??
Sweet. NDX does look like a really good pick-up. On the topic of Phanttasia, would you recommend against buying the GBA version for my collection?

I demand that you sub this game. T_T Namco is stupid and refuses to bring it over.
On another note, I love your song choice. Great video as always.
How do you use these?
They will be unlocked once you get all six party members and they trigger ocassionally at the end of a fight.
There's a very convoluted way the game uses to calculate it but that's the gist of it
@Liddell1988 Yeah, I'm aware of their transliterations. As I said, I wanted to change them to add impact and a different message. I don't like doing 1:1 translations.

whats the song name?
dangit, why won't namco release this game in english?? why???
Yuris has all the maxwell extensions, but due to many reasons I just left it with only one.
is that Blue Earth over kill or what? O.o
@TalesOfGod There are tons of ways to download a video, if its for the game, thats piracy
I dont have a second controller OR a second person to do it, so I couldnt do it myself :(
Oh, whoops. Well, in that case, thanks for the awesome videos. Your subs are pretty awesome which is why I asked. XD
Side note, but it's bothering me to no end. I KNOW I've heard this song somewhere, but I can't remember where. What song is it?
Wat song is this
Lunatic Tears - 11eyes
@laharl95 Sadly I dont think either of them will happen
Very nice! Got me wanting to play Rebirth again!
Also....that Blue Earth footage....i never want to see it again @_@
The track is in credits ;3
The story of Rebirth is the best. My only gripe is Hi-Ougi activation is rare + conditions must be met, and only can be used to finish the battle.
@GamatexD
Thank you ;)
The title's nice to go on, but who sang it is what we're asking.
This game actually broke the Mold and featured Innovations such as the Rush Gauge, Enhance Points and more.
I just noticed that Graces reused the Dual the Sun Hi Ougi Combo for the last boss
He does turn his sword into Soul Calibur in RM3. It's just the newer Soul Calibur sword design.
oh. how nice. this has 1080p. looks a bit better imo.
That tiger guy is blummin' epic, as is every anthropomorphic creature in any game
ToR in PSP was a great game, as well as other Tales of games, i always wanted to play every one, but i couldn't even finish Totw Radiant Mythology 2 (which i'm playing right now). I plan on getting back to ToR and ToD 2 soon, hope i get the chance ^_^
@Kazuma1391 Hahaha thank YOU for seeing the video XD
Thanks dude, I really find your comment mesmerising even if it is a joke ;D
This game has some epic voice actors. Veigue is Link and Tylree is Usopp.
hope there will be a global english version someday Q.Q
I remember a comment about Annie getting Infinitia Strike instead of Ryuuko Metsugazan by mistake and I just tried to imagine her doing Infinitia Strike and... oh god... LOLOL.
I really recommend a PSP if you like Tales. RM3 and NDX are pretty good PSP exclusive Tales games! Plus NDX comes with the best version of Phantasia :)
Waldo doesn't have a Mystic Arte?
Nope, Waltu never gets a cut-in attack apparently
I dont have a PSP
Man! These Games could use a Remake/Remaster!
Does Walto has a hi ougi?
ザビーダ Zaveid Nope
@wiseSYW It is, lol
How the name of music?
Lunatic Tears - 11 eyes
If they pull off a "Universal Secret Blast Caliber" like in ToDr, everyone would have few more, just the same shit for everyone though
Okay thanks. One thing I love is listening to the dub: "IN-DIG-NAY-SHUN!" XD Memorably bad.
Eh? what are you talking about??
celcius calibur uses the sword that celcuis fights with in some games
and for ryuko metsajin the phrase sodo mi no kizare is i will obliterate your soul NOT i will engrave your soul
Hilda sure does love her grapes.
awesome good job
You also helped, so thanks to you too
"Lunatic Tears..." performed by Ayane
Leave that Vercsase, he did the dirty job XD
Dual the sun best mystic atre ever.. tho i never used even after completing tales of eternia
It said it at the end of the video. -_-
0_0 wow Celsius Calibur actually uses Soul Calibur, and here I thought something was wrong with my Radiant Mythology 3, but why won't it turn into Soul Calibur in Graces f...oh well gotta love cameos!
