Tales games always follow a specific recipe:
50% Starting the most inconsequential quest that ends up saving the world. 25% Male lead falls in love with female lead. 10% Betrayed by [Insert name here] 10% Various sidequests, including a difficult "Side" Dungeon and Cameo Battles. 5% Skit Mania.
Considering it's part of the mothership series, I doubt Graces will be any different. Also, considering it's part of the mothership series, it seems unlikely it won't reach the US (If it doesn't, the Homebrew channel makes modding the Wii less dangerous/easier). It might take a little longer, but will be worth the wait.
As for Asbel, I feel myself disliking his character. Looking at his character design (Jade, why did you clone Suzaku?) it seems as if he will be moved by duty, similiar to Flynn. That strikes me as too rigid and boring. At least Yuri was interesting.
I believe Graces refers to grace given by god/organized religion as well. Though, on the same note, it could refer to grace or elegance.

I still feel that the theoligcal meaning of grace "Gaining sufficient power to progress" is closely matched to what we hear Asbel talking about in the trailers thus far, I'm guessing that his quest will be something to do with a grudge against the rival countries, and then something like his father initiated the war will happen to prolong the game. (Hopefully AFTER and epic arc that you THOUGHT was the final boss)

Tales of Graces looks awesome. Graces... wow, that's the most beautiful Tales of title, IMO. I think it means something like being blessed with the power to protect the one you love? By the way, while everyone expected many thing from Graces so much...What got in my mind is just.. I hope Asbel would be as awesome as Yuri. Yuri is the most unique and "different" from other heroes, I don't think I will meet his kind of character again someday in other games. of course Asbel cannot replace Yuri, but at least he must be as awesome as Yuri! (So I got my next fandom target XD) and here, I saw many Yuri fangirls like me though that Asbel is charming and sexy...maybe I could like him. ... cuz,seriously, if I love the main character, I'd love the whole game and all aspects in it. that's me

and then something like his father initiated the war will happen to prolong the game. Nah, the story says that his journey begins because his father's dead and he has to take over. I doubt his dad would start the war.

it was just a random example of a betrayl twist, though i bet he'll end up following the war back it's begining and fighting SOMEONE sparking it off.

I'm more interested in how Asbel will be the one to make the story unfold. Articles say he's the one who makes all of his own decisions, without letting anything else influence it, or make others do the decisions for him.

He does seem like a fairly independant main character, I think I'm gonna like him a lot actually.

BUT...this game is still next year, wouldn't it will be funny if I excited for him now and lost interest right before the game released?

I'm waiting for the game until i make any final decision, so for now, I'm just VERY LIKELY to like him.
I'm very happy though that this game is announced for europe, hopefully America will have to wait at least a year or not get it all. That'd be a nice change, the best deal europe was ever cut is getting mario kart 2 weeks before the US. And that was only one game for 2 weeks. Well that and the legendary Distaster: Day of Crisis.

I generally don't like the main characters, but Asbel looks very tolerant~ so who knows? I am incredibly curious about the other party members though, D: D: D:
