OK, we’re done. 1080p is a slower seed (10/2 connection instead of 100/100) unfortunately, since it’ll be faster to seed it out than to ul/mux it.
Oh, and this has 5.1 FLAC. I think this is not only our first completed movie, but also our first show with 5.1 audio. So, yay. 🙂 480p has 2.0 AAC @ 320 kbps, though, as you’re only DLing that for filesize or compatibility.
Big shout out to the staff for working so diligently on this. ^^
1080p: Seed will be a bit slow on this one.
720p: I’ll take the DFC.

If what you said is true.
This is so sad.
Even they can made animation this good but end up just another CM for game.
They should totally animate all of vesperia, then of course the others.
[…] will) myself but… is this show any good? And does it require 0 knowledge of the game? ovo… Tales of Vesperia ~The First Strike~ Released! at Chihiro Torrent only. Yes, 0 knowledge of the game. It's a prequel (what happens before the game) and […]
@ Niphty
Eh, she’s not really abusive. She’s just an very dull character who entire personality was built on cliches. In a game where the characters were a very high point, she was definitely was pretty bad.
I’m not saying this to hate, I just find it odd after playing the game that people actually like her.
P.S. She’s so far away from badass, it’s not funny. She’s about as badass as Karol.
@sage and others: Yes, the credits is the opening to Vesperia the game. I don’t know how much CG they have in Vesperia but the openings to tales games always have you asking for more, huh. I only support animating full games if you give them a full 26 episode series they deserve.
Otherwise, movie prequel >>>> heavily abridged game
@sage1210: I agree with you 100%. But historically speaking Namco only released 2 full tales series: tales of eternia (I never played the game but the anime was horrible), and tales of abyss which was very good. The problem is, if you watched a full 24/26 episode anime you will never play the game, and that means less money for the company. On the other hand I think they are very lazy people. Why couldn’t they realease a full tales of symphonia anime instead of dragging it for 10 years? We all know that when it is finished they will slap it on 3 blu ray discs and sell it as a complete series.
I downloaded Divx for this and it says something about DirectShow Decoder 4294967295, then I tried WMP to see it it worked and both case shows that its a FLAC file and is not supported, I did some research and ended up with an answer like Ac3filter or something, I’m not sure exactly how to apply it after download, any one care to enlighten me as to how I can finally watch this movie?
480p @ 320kbps?
2.0 Stereo AAC (46 kBit/s)
Lol, guys all the comments you let in the subtitle script are just hillarous xD (aegisub <3)
Works perfectly in MPC (satsuki decoder pack) !
@Johnny : just get a codec pack like "satsuki" or "k-lite" it should works fine. (MPC FTW !)
If nothing works, transcode FLAC to AAC (handle up to 48 channels) and remux with the original file.
@lowhat : "480p @ 320kbps" horrible video bitrate Oo
Nice to see that something was done right this time.
Could someone please tell me how to get the voices to work on a MAC? I hear sound but no voices (only background voices work). I use MPlayer OSX extended as you always recommended at chihiro.
I have found the solution I had to select: “Virtual surround for headphones”
Absolutely amazing.
So glad this was subbed. It’s definitely a must see for any fan of Vesperia. This is a really well done movie.
Great job on the subbing too. I think I saw a single bit of wonky grammar, but didn’t see anything else.
Though, makes me sad that it’ll never see the light of western theaters. I’d watch the shit out of this movie in theaters.
Great movie!! Thanks, Chihiro and Kristen’s tenacious whip in getting this out! =)
The only thing I wish it had was more Rita! From the little bit they showed of her, she seems like she’d be my favorite. I just wanted to see her go blastia nuts on people and things that get in her way or piss her off!
Out of the twins, I think I liked the “smaller one” more. 😉 And Yuri’s move where he spins his sword up over his head is bad ass!
Thx for the beautiful release, i got myself to fix the causality/ casualty error, wonder why no one pointed that out? too much awesomeness?
Can anyone tell me where i can download the subs.thnx
Having a problem with the 1080p version.
There is occasional stuttering in the audio and video and also sometimes the subs come late or so, which means i’m unable to watch it. Tried watching with MPC which gives this stuff and with VLC its even worse. I tried re-installing CCCP etc. but it didn’t do any good.
any advice?
Good stuff mate. I’ve only destroyed half of my social life with this game so i’ve been anticipating this movie for about an eternity or two.
Btw those of you who are encoding this to work on your 360 or PS3 or whatever you use, what encoder are you using.
All of mine are nothing short of retarded and can’t even recognize this file as MKV.
I’m talking Gotsent, All2Avi, virtual dub mod, Xvid4psp, I’m not having any probs with FLAC it’s just that i can’t some to hardcode the subs correctly. After i extract the subs and then try to hardcode them in it’s like someone wiped their ass with the subs then slapped them back into the vid. Either i’m wrong or my programs are weak. I’ve been using encoders and converting MKV to MP4 and avi for years never had this problem. any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Where can I watch this?
OMG thank you so much! X3 i love this game and i’ve been waiting forever for this to be subbed! Yay!!!
I’m about to play through ToV again, but watching this before hand is going to be my lead in. Thanks a ton Chihiro for making this great fansub, it will surely spark some interest in the game, so it’s good for Nam Cobanda too.
Thanks a ton!
Okay! I’ll have the boob twins XD
I download it but it got no sound and sub. Is there a way to fix this? Im using LImewire btw.
These are very awkward translations, the notes are annoying, and you don’t even put the dialouge for the spells. Mail me when you get a better translation.
Hey there would you mind letting me know which web host you’re using? I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different internet browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most. Can you recommend a good hosting provider at a reasonable price? Thank you, I appreciate it!
Completly ASWOME!! 5/5!!! thanks for uploading this, i just watched it :`)
im just downloading the movie by a friends recommendation, but i just want the game to be on the ps3 for the UST_T
I feel asleep reading this.
If i click on any of the links it doesnt let me download them, i even post the url in bit torrent and it gives me this : Error ‘ An Attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions. ‘while downloading URL. does anyone know why? cause i really want to see this movie Subbed thanks!
I cant get audio ;^;
Can someone tell me what program(s) they used to watch this in? Since Im and idiot and dont know shit.
1080 is dead
Sorry nvm the peers were just a bit slow to come
Funimation finally put the dub and sub on their site, now if only they let us download it.
