Description So, I bought Professor Layton and the Curious Village on a whim a few days ago (actually, it wasn't completely on a whim, because I've seen a lot of adorable/hilarious fanart for it, as well) and holy crap, is it awesome or what?

Seriously, if you have a DS, buy that game. It's an amazing puzzle game, all wrapped up with a mysterious plot, charming characters and the neatest cutscenes. : D (I haven't played too many DS games, but I don't think many of them have actual anime cutscenes.)

I just beat it today, and I got 10 hours out of it before I reached the end. And I still have a lot of puzzles and extras left to complete!

Ah, so, anyway... This is from one of my favourite cutscenes, where Layton and Luke are being chased by a runaway ferris wheel. XD It's hilarious. Here it is on Youtube (the video quality's a little shoddy, though.) If there's a higher-quality one released, I'll change the link.

Here's the Tegaki.

Oh, and merci to and , for drawing the lolarious Tegaki (and comments) which finally prompted me to buy PL. XDDD

You illustrated the scene very nicely, and this artwork is so colorful. I like how even though Luke and Layton are a very small part of the artwork you've well-portrayed the urgency of their situation, as well as theirs and the ferris wheel's movement. It looks splendid! Very good artwork.

That's my favorite cutscene, too! That and when they're running from the tower and Luke does an epic cartoon jump over the chasm. LaytonXClaire ^w^

Ah, what a gorgeous rendition of one of the most epic scenes ever. I love how bright and colourful and simple it is; it's as charming as the game itself. : 3

This was the best cut scene in the whole game. xD
I branched a new game right before this just so I can watch it again and again.

Amazing picture. xDDD

Simply preposterous.

This and the making (and flying of) the curtain/globe stand/string/curtain hanger/chair contraption were my two favorite scenes XD

Only bad thing is when you finish the game and get the bonus material and watch the video, THE MUSIC IS GONE DX NO ACCORDION MUSIC FOR ME, I GUESS..... Except, I'm smart, I kept a save file right before the cutscene, so I can see it in all of its accordion-musicked glory XD

CubieJ In reply to snowicedragon [2009-01-10 02:54:05 +0000 UTC]

HAHA, YES. The globe-glider scene is epic. XD Layton is so MacGyver. <3

And yeah, it's really sad that they left the music out of the scenes when you're watching them in the bonus section... D:>

XDD Haha! You kept a save file right before the ferris scene? ME TOO. XD

XD

I was depressed, I was like "Hey! Now I can get rid of that save point because I have the videos saved up in the bonus section!" I proceeded to watch the video and was shocked to hear no accordion music. IT'S NOT THE SAME WITHOUT IT XD

So I'm NOT the only one! XD

I also like the flying machine cutsence cause it plays Layton's theme.

Seems like a good game, but I just don't think it'll quench my appetite for mystery, engaging storyline, puzzle-obsessive townsfolk, or accordion music.

Turquoisephoenix [2008-04-14 04:13:21 +0000 UTC]

Is it wrong that, when I first saw this, I immediately thought of Katamari Damacy?
It's the coloring style of the art, I think. XD And plus the whole "running away from something that's rolling" theme present in the picture.

Ahh, Professor Layton. I need to grab that game one of these days...

This is a cute picture. Nice job!

CubieJ In reply to Turquoisephoenix [2008-04-14 04:18:38 +0000 UTC]

ROFL. XDD I didn't think of that, but I can see how you'd make the connection.

"You know, this Katamari reminds me of a puzzle!"
"Not now, Professor! D:"

I would definitely recommend buying it. = D
