History Awesome / TalesOFVesperia

-->'''Yuri:''' They're out there, you know. [[CompleteMonster People so bad they'll just go on hurting others.]] What can the average person do but be victimized by people like that? You know it was the same way with our people in the lower quarter.

-->'''Yuri:''' "The laws have always been the tools of whoever happens to hold all the chips."
-->'''Flynn:''' "Just saying that doesn't make it right for individuals to judge right from wrong, or for you to operate out of your own private court of law! If the laws are at fault, then fixing those laws comes first. It's for that very reason that I'm still with the Imperial Knights!
-->'''Yuri:''' "But you can't deny that lives were saved because those bastards were put down. You'd rather tell those people, 'Sorry you have to die today. I promise we'll change things real soon'?
** What comes afterwards is arguably even better:
--->'''Yuri:''' [[spoiler:"Murder is a crime."]]
--->'''Flynn:''' [[spoiler:"...And still, you intend to dirty your hands?"]]
--->'''Yuri:''' [[spoiler:"Intend to? I already have."]]

** "O power that lies at the root of all creaton! O memory inscribed in ages past! Hear my call and arise before me! ''Ancient Catastrophe!'' (EarthShatteringKaboom) ''This'' is the fruit of my research.

** "[[VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia Struggle against these holy chains!]] '''''SHINING BIND!'''''"

** This troper prefers what comes after that:

* Fighting [[spoiler:Kratos]] on Unknown. [[spoiler:He]] is unquestionably the hardest fight in the entire game. Even the Fell Arms boss is nothing compared to how incredibly powerful this boss is. [[spoiler:He]] is incredibly fast, breaks out of combos with ease, and hits incredibly hard. When [[spoiler:Kratos]] goes into Overlimit, ''you have to run from him or he will slaughter you in the blink of an eye'' and then [[spoiler:Kratos will use Shining Bind; it hits for 30k damage.]] It's one of the most challenging fights in the TalesSeries, but it feels to great when you finally win.

* From Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike. Yuri overhears some Guild member boasting about how he ditched his client because the client annoyed him. Yuri (And later Flynn after one of the guild members drags him into the fight) kick the ass of almost everyone in the bar with just their fists. Also a CrowningMomentOfFunny.

** "[[VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia Struggle against these holy chains!]]"

* [[CuteShotaroBoy Karol]] has one when proves himself quite a {{Determinator}} in the Blade Drifts of Zopheir, [[spoiler:going up against a huge monster ''by himself'' to save the rest of the party, culminating in the part where he's flipped into the air by the monster, grabs a conveniently-placed {{BFS}}, and stabs the monster hard enough so that the party can recover and join the battle in full.]]

* Three words: [[VideoGame/TalesOfDestiny NO]], [[NorioWakamoto ITEMS]], '''[[ThisIsSPARTA EVEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRR!!!]]'''

** "[[TalesOfSymphonia Struggle against these holy chains!]]"

*** Oh, and to gain the Indignation attack, she has to basically reenact the opening to ''TalesOfPhantasia''. By going into overlimit 4 and using Thunder Blade on Dhaos, who appears in 200-man-melee, while he's at half health or less. She'll then spontaneously use Indignation (for the first time in that save file), and obliterate Dhaos in one final hit.

* Three words: [[TalesOfDestiny NO]], [[NorioWakamoto ITEMS]], '''[[ThisIsSPARTA EVEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRR!!!]]'''

* Yuri, Karol, Judith, and Rita, in succession, punching out Raven [[spoiler:after he returns to the party after fighting them as Schwann]]. This may also qualify for CrowningMomentOfFunny, especially Rita's line: "I didn't want to feel left out."

* Remember Sekundes in ''TalesOfEternia''? [[spoiler:Yup, in the {{PS3}} version, Rita can pull that off too. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CCMlHjtkjM It's every bit as epic as it sounds.]]]]

**** And ruined again by [[MissedMomentOfAwesome no one in the game showing any indication that they were aware of it]].

**** [[spoiler:[[MissedMomentOfAwesome That would have been much more awesome if someone had shown any awareness of it]].]]

* [[spoiler:Yuri]] does an amazing job at chewing out [[spoiler:Flynn]] when he helps [[Alexei capture Estelle]]

* [[spoiler:Yuri]] gets a couple when he cements his status as a VigilanteMan, killing [[spoiler:both Ragou and Cumore]] in cold blood.
-->'''Flynn:''' That's the behavior of a common criminal.
-->'''Yuri:''' I recognize it for what it is and I've made my choices. Murder is a crime.
-->'''Flynn:''' And even knowing that, you intend to dirty your hands.
-->'''Yuri:''' Intend to? I already have. (said in the most badass way possible)

-->'''Yuri:''' Intend to? I already have. BADASS.

-->'''Yuri:''' But you can't deny that lives were saved because those bastards were put down. You'd rather tell those people "sorry you had to die today, I promise I'll change things soon."?
** Gets even better when Flynn tries to call him out on it.

!CrowningMomentOfAwesome

* When Yuri [[spoiler: kills Ragou]].
* Also when doing the Final Boss' secret mission Yuri will finish his Mystic Arte by using a super powered version of his first technique.

* Karol gets his in the Blade Drifts of Zopheir when he [[spoiler: single-handedly fights a boss until he's disarmed, then grabs a nearby BFS and performs a truly legendary backflip-attack]].

* Six more: [[LimitBreak Oh brilliant]] [[AudibleSharpness blade of]] [[SwordSparks coldest steel]]...

** "O power that lies at the root of all creaton! O memory inscribed in ages past! Hear my call and arise before me! ''Ancient Catastrophe!''

!CrowningMomentOfFunny

* In true TalesSeries fashion, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T54GXidLVtI&feature=related the]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryMFT812Qow&annotation_id=annotation_487756&feature=iv skits]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRUL-CwUiY4&feature=related can]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85fLsIXy_as&feature=related be]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KM78ku8SlU&feature=related quite]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uq5YdI-UoBc&feature=related humorous]]
** However, I think [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2jhfMPvcnw Yuri's secret ingredient]] takes the [[strike:cake]] croquette here.
* Karol's "suggestions" for [[spoiler:the new names of Belius and Phaeroh when they're revived as Undine and Efreet.]]
* Yuri, Karol, Judith and Rita punching out Raven, one at a time, [[spoiler:after his HeelFaceTurn.]] Rita's turn is especially humourous:
-->'''Rita:''' I didn't want to feel left out.

!CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming

* When Yuri tries to go off to Zaphias by himself to "do what has to be done", he takes a brief nap in the forest after having a lonely chat with Repede...only to be kicked, punched, and fireballed awake by the rest of the party (led there personally by Repede) for trying to bear the pain by himself.
* "I WANT TO BE MYSELF..I WANT TO KEEP ON...LIVING!"
* The night before the party heads to Zaude, Yuri has a conversation with Flynn in the latter's room about the challenges the world now faces. They've butted heads ideologically over the course of the game, sometimes violently, and their [[HoYay friendship]] has been repeatedly tested. But, when the camera zooms in on Flynn, you can clearly see that he...has framed and mounted a crayon drawing of him and Yuri as children, right at eye-level at his desk.
* After Zaude, [[spoiler:when Yuri wakes up in his room after falling off the tower — one by one you find your party members, who have been searching across the world for him for days. All of them express open, emotional joy that he's alright, and there are not one, but two full skits where the party discusses how happy they are that they're all finally together again.]]
* The night before the final battle, everyone in the party gets a FriendshipMoment with someone else.
* [[spoiler:Belius's revival as Undine]] counts, especially considering the [[TragicMonster tragic]] circumstances of [[spoiler:her initial death.]]
