Tales of Zestiria - That's because nobody taught me (Doujinshi)

This doujinshi was produced by the circle DearMyFriends, a creative group active within the Japanese fan convention circuit. Like much of the doujin literature inspired by the Tales of Zestiria video game, this publication serves as an unofficial creative extension of the source material. These works are typically produced by fans for fans, focusing on specific character relationships and niche narratives that deviate from or expand upon the official canon, providing a space for amateur artists and writers to explore their interpretations of the game's protagonists.

The aesthetic and narrative approach of this volume reflects the common doujinshi practice of prioritizing character intimacy and emotional development. DearMyFriends focused on the interplay between the established characters of the Zestiria universe, aiming to provide a grounded, intimate perspective on their interactions. As is standard for high-quality doujinshi within the Tales series fandom, the work was distributed at events like Comiket or specialized doujin shops, where it was appreciated by enthusiasts for its unique artistic interpretation and dedication to the source characters.
