You are so welcome :)

I actually have practically every single Layton game! The only ones that I have left are the katrielle game and the ace attorney crossover one! The katrielle one will arrive very soon, and I plan to get the ace attorney one after I actually play the phoenix wright trilogy! I’m so glad the Layton series is not dead!

Haha! I mean, I did rewrite the arrangement for this video, though that was probably back in January... so more like 1 month ago, not 2 years ago! :)

[@jackhoward705]

Oh my god yes. I've loved the Professor Layton series since the first game on the DS and have always thought the ost was horribly underrated. This already sounds great. Edit: just finished watching and yes it's as great as I thought. The minor changes around the second half really helped this stand out but it's never unidentifiable as the theme of Professor Layton. This was brilliant and now I will listen to it again and again for the rest of the day.

[@insaneintherainmusic]

Thanks Jack :) This theme is so brilliantly written!

[@thebeshortedcellist8182]

Thank you so much for this. Layton was my first venture into a full series other than Pokemon as a kid. It holds such a deep place in my heart as it introduced me to how games could be fun even without a combat system, and the art and music were atmospheric in a way I didn't think games could do. And more than anything, Hershel oddly became a bit of a role model for me; in a time where most guys around me mostly talked about sport, sex, and violent games/literally fighting, it was nice to see the idea of a gentleman was an option. Anyway, I've rambled on without talking about the music. Beautifully done as always, I look forward to whatever you have lined up next
