Please put any Headscratchers for the sequel on the [[Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World/Headscratchers|''Tales Ofof Symphonia: Dawn of the New World'' Headscratchers]] page.
== What's with all the [[Fantastic Racism]] against half-elves? ==
Why are elves okay, and humans okay, but elves mixed with humans are bad? Especially on the part of the elves. It makes as much sense as black people discriminating against multiracial kids. And furthermore, how does Raine's mother get off the hook? She was with a human long enough to have not one, but two kids. If we accept the logic that half-elves equal bad, then multiracial couples should be just as bad.
Line 86:
** You have Symphonia's Mana Cannon entry COMPLETELY wrong- The Cannon fired in Symphonia SAVED countless people. The Tree was caused by forming all of the pacts, and the Mana Reactors of the operational Human Ranches giving the Great Seed Mana- causing it to give rise to the Berserk Tree- which was going to destroy the entire world. The Cannon fired at the Tree- destroying it, thereby saving many people- true, lives were lost in the tree event, but many more would've been if it wasn't for that gun. The Vanguard wanted it- because it made "World Destroying Tree" go BOOM.
*** Fair point there, but remember that the goal was to ''stabilize'' the tree, making everything hunky-dory again and ending the journey right there- not turning it into a seed again. So in that respect even at its most successful point it ultimately failed miserably, suceeding only at returning the previous troubled status quo (and inspiring a literal Reign of Terror in the vein of the classic French one 2 years later).
* This one's easy enough. [[Humans Are Morons]]. [[Humans Are the Real Monsters]]. Humans are drawn to big power destructive things like moths to flames. Give them a problem that superficially looks like it could be solved with the application of overwhelming force, and add to that legends/records/memories of [[BFBig GsFreaking Gun]]s. It's a [[Foregone Conclusion]].

Line 116:
*** That doesn't quite change the fact that he's ''still shackled''
**** look, it all makes sense except the sleeves. Just mentally put him in a tank top and it all comes out smooth.
***** Aha, solution to how he changes his normal clothing (but nor the formal outfit however). [http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f378/Twisted_Spirit/Games/Tales%20of%20Symphonia/Regal%20Bryant/t-R_gal_01.jpg He has laces on his sleeves]{{Dead link}}
****** I... I just realized that Regal is wearing a top...
*** Yeah, it's the sleeves. If he can cook with those shackles, then he can probably lace those easily enough. Also [[Suspiciously Specific Denial|(not that I've been looking)]], his trousers are really low, making them easy to remove as well.
Line 242:
* [[Jerkass]]es in costumes? But no, actually, they're just a species of monster, that when you actually think about it... are some serious [[Nightmare Fuel]].
