12:12 Martyn: So, are we casting Mornstar right away? I see him casting the spell then the airship exploding and everyone tumbling to the ground. Moral of the story? Never mix-up mornstar and gateway.
//walks in, sees Pea crying on the bed. //walks out I wonder what's in the living room. Love this series and this game so much, I keep coming back to this series :') Brilliant playthrough Martyn :D
I doubt you ever realized this but the reason Ester was sucking so bad was because she had the best tank in game (the umberwood) and Gogo was a fine healer, but the claptrap (middling tank) was excess baggage and left her with no physical attacker. Ester's affinity for bird, fish and plant types meant a dangler (ding dong well) early on, and a hooray as replacement (just after getting the boat) would have gone a long way towards making her much more balanced.
This reminds me of Okami in that the whole first section of the game focuses on an enemy, then once you defeat him you realize that he's only a small piece("there's still more game!" :D)
Can I say something? I noticed something about Oliver name, and the obvious reference to Harry Potter. That would be calling Shadar "you-know-who" and the fact that, in Harry Potter, harry gets his wand from a shop called Olivanders. Ollivanders- Oliver. See the connection? (There was also the reference about Kublai and Genghis Khan, two Mongol leaders who were important in Chinese History, when it turns out Kublai's soul mate is Genghis.)
So.... is the council member pea called Doodle doo on their side, against them, or just neutral? Was he tricking them? I guess we'll see in the next part.
actually when they turned into zombies it made me angry, i mainly started watching this series because i thought it was different from everything else, a break from stuff like MW3 and other destructive games like that, this game is still like other games in someways but the goal still isnt run through the streets and kill everyone you see... and the zombies kind of made it more normal and less fun to watch...
Just spent the past three days watching this series. Mostly left it on as background noise, but the side effect was that Martyn was narrating my dream last night.
hello Martin! so i just started watching ni no kuni and i am currently watching ep 22? i think:/ anyways i wanted to say i am really enjoying the series! i hope that you get far more recognised as a big youtuber because your really awesome and i wish you the best!!! keep at it! Oh and might i add that i love your accent! totally awesome!
e can tame familiars and heal (while Swaine can't). Also, Perdida isn't manna'd, so you can go there to purchase weapons/provisions. One final thing is to do the Horace side quests (look them up if you need too). After each one, he'll give you a spell. Some are defensive, like Veil (hides you from enemies in a fog) or offensive like thunderstorm or cloudburst (2 spells Marcassain has). And also, when you beat the boss when your halfway through the Ivory Tower (trying not to spoil) you get an tha
I can tell by you not knowing the phrase "ferret around" that you've never been to a Yorkshire village festival, Martyn. The 'ferret down the trousers' is an old classic round these parts.
Hey Martyn! I have a tiny bit of advice you may or may not find useful. You will have wait until you've Sankified the Three Kingdoms, but it could help. That one is that the "Jack the Giant Slayer" perk in Swift Solutions (it cost 8 and is the very last one available) is very much useful! It gives you 100 HP and MP to Oliver. There are other perks (including one that lowers the cost of ALL tricks, spells- basically anything that costs MP. Also, Esther might be more useful than Swaine because sh
If you cant understand that it's basically saying Oliver has normal, Swain has machines and beasts, Esther has water, grass, (and air) and Marcassan has the fancy mystical stuff.
Yea, in one of the cut scenes one of them say that their staffs are based off of mornstar. I think they say it before Oliver goes and tries to get mornstar.
t unlocks a last Marcassain quest at the place with the flower pots (no hints!). This will give you a fantastic spell for part three of the White Witch fight.
Right, my mind just kicked in, this is how I think this is going to go; there ARE three worlds, the Zodiarchs are from that third world, as well as pea and the white witch. Pea shares a soul mate with oliver/Oliver's mum and the white witch shares a soul mate with Oliver/Oliver's mum. In the third world they use shouts rather than using wands, but in order to enhance the power of the second world they use wands
Hmm... maybe it's got to do with where the crystal is? Cos the sky isn't actually the source of the manna, it's those dark crystal things so since there's one of those underground in Hamelin it's making the manna fall on everyone.
martyn you may have missed this but the zodiarchs is a play on word of zodiac so when pea calls gallus doodle doo its because gallus has the sign of the rooster :) like so he can see
no to mention Yule and the other towns have not been attacked. I guess that would be too any battles in a row for one player to handle, so they probably just focused on the three main places.
So, if everyone got turned into these zombie-like creatures, what happens to their soul mates in Oliver's world? Do they just get really sick or something?
And now, for no particular reason, I'll translate 'Ni No Kuni'. Ni can either mean 'brother', or 'two'. No means the possessive 'of', except the two subjects are switched, for example 'the house of bob' would translate to 'bob no house' (if you leave 'house' in English). Kuni means 'country', or in this case, 'world'. So 'Ni No Kuni' means 'World of Two', or 'World of Brother' which are badly organised versions of 'The Second World' or 'The Brother World'.
When the White Witch was a kid the King would call her Pea. She called him Doodle-Do. When the kingdom was destroued The White Witch was pulled by dispair. To keep her sanity, she remove the emotion from her heart. This spirit bevame Pea as we know her, the complete opposite of The White Witch. While the Evil part of the two tricked Shadar and the Zodiarches, Pea rested waiting for someone to need her power and purity.
The most majestic and powertul spell in the world It can return the transformed to their original form. It can bring zombies back to life. Yes, I speak of none other than Sankify, Never judge a book by its name, folks.
I agree that was an error when they developed it. The original DS version had Oliver travelling back and forth from the town center unlike the PS3 version.
This visiblity between worlds thing doesn't seem to have a rule. Who can see what in which world? if pea is from oliver's world, and they can only see her in their world, wouldn't they only be able to see oliver in their world? and how come everyone in the other world can see oliver and pea while motorvillers can't see oliver's companions? it doesn't make sense.
I find it interesting that the undercover agent working to save the world is the Rooster. And the best part is Pea's nickname for him of "Doodle Doo." xD
I have almost finished this game. I bought it from CEX because I saw how fun it looked from you. I am on the final boss fight. The White Witch , Cassiopeia then the Zodiarchs
I haven't played the game but I'm guessing shes the soul mate of the white witch and doodle-doo is a rooster in Motorville and she can see whose soulmates is whose. Just a guess of course.
When the White Witch says "I will not be denied!" , Martyn says "Uh oh" in a short, very slightly more high pitched tone, and that's all he has to say?
when the ash started falling all i could think was "but everything changed when the fire nation attacked"
12:12 Martyn: So, are we casting Mornstar right away?
I see him casting the spell then the airship exploding and everyone tumbling to the ground.
Moral of the story? Never mix-up mornstar and gateway.
hahaha
Victory? Da, da, da, da? Da? Da? Da, DaDa? :?
//walks in, sees Pea crying on the bed.
//walks out
I wonder what's in the living room.
Love this series and this game so much, I keep coming back to this series :')
Brilliant playthrough Martyn :D
I love the fact that you were more interested in the kitchen than Pea crying on the bed!
I doubt you ever realized this but the reason Ester was sucking so bad was because she had the best tank in game (the umberwood) and Gogo was a fine healer, but the claptrap (middling tank) was excess baggage and left her with no physical attacker. Ester's affinity for bird, fish and plant types meant a dangler (ding dong well) early on, and a hooray as replacement (just after getting the boat) would have gone a long way towards making her much more balanced.
Has anyone questioned the fact that the fall of the manna seemed to have no real influence on the soulmates in Motorville?
Martyn:"so were gonna cast mornstar"
Me:"whaat...seriously? do you want to destroy that ship?
12:11
Finally caught up on all 55 episodes in the past 3 days hahaha. Thank you for doing this series Martyn, absolutely love it :DDDD
"We'll kick the ass and then you heal it. Kiss it better."-Martyn- 2013
This reminds me of Okami in that the whole first section of the game focuses on an enemy, then once you defeat him you realize that he's only a small piece("there's still more game!" :D)
When Martyn explored the house I was like "What the flipping fudge mun!?!? WHERES THE BATHROOM WHERE THEY ALL NEED TO "PEA" AND POO!?
The black crystal is inside the city, thus making the ash form there
i think that pea and the white witch are soulmates, but its only a guess XD
I think so to thay even look the same
I think Pea's soulmate is Alicia
Alicia doesn't have one...
:SPOILER:
It is the white witch
SPOILERthey are the same person
Oh Martyn, you're in for a treat in the second half of the game.
How did Hamelin get infected?... They are sheltered from the ashes... (if it came from the sky)
Ant_TonyLOL KID The white witch’s magic defies physics. Similar to the rain in Oblivion.
"Leave it to Pea! That's me!" Best.Quote.Ever
Gallus's Staff looks like a big Mornstar
I couldn't have been the only one to hope to see "Pea has joined your party!"
Goat-herd Martyn, not goth- herd
"Oh there's pea crying" *leaves room*
DOODLE-DOO
Can I say something? I noticed something about Oliver name, and the obvious reference to Harry Potter. That would be calling Shadar "you-know-who" and the fact that, in Harry Potter, harry gets his wand from a shop called Olivanders.
Ollivanders- Oliver. See the connection?
(There was also the reference about Kublai and Genghis Khan, two Mongol leaders who were important in Chinese History, when it turns out Kublai's soul mate is Genghis.)
uuumm how is he going to catch monsters without esther?
Yay Skitty
This series is AWESOME!!! So glad its not ending just yet!!
So.... is the council member pea called Doodle doo on their side, against them, or just neutral? Was he tricking them? I guess we'll see in the next part.
Pea is now my new favourite character!!! ^_^
Pea is so adorable! "Miraculous? No, it was Sanckify. Sanck-i-fy!" Awww
19:05
I have the biggest smile because I was hoping Martyn would load this on my birthday! Thanks! This is the best way to end my birthday!
When i see your videos martyn it always makes me happy and puts a smile on my face, never stop! i love you!
0:37 I see what you did there. Past the FOUNTAIN, It seems everything is WELL in the land of Ni No Kuni. Yay, water jokes
"Leave it to Pea! Please get better!" LOL
actually when they turned into zombies it made me angry, i mainly started watching this series because i thought it was different from everything else, a break from stuff like MW3 and other destructive games like that, this game is still like other games in someways but the goal still isnt run through the streets and kill everyone you see... and the zombies kind of made it more normal and less fun to watch...
Why do these episodes always and without fail end on a cliffhanger?!
*Martyn sees crying Pea* *looks at kitchen* "She's on my bed... heyo!"
I think she adopted him.
"I'll look after you, sweetie."
This is my second playthrough I've watched. It's amazing :'D
Just spent the past three days watching this series. Mostly left it on as background noise, but the side effect was that Martyn was narrating my dream last night.
everytime pea say something i just smile. god bless her!
hello Martin! so i just started watching ni no kuni and i am currently watching ep 22? i think:/ anyways i wanted to say i am really enjoying the series! i hope that you get far more recognised as a big youtuber because your really awesome and i wish you the best!!! keep at it! Oh and might i add that i love your accent! totally awesome!
"GoaTHerd? What's a goaTHerd? " I laughed so hard at this. It's ok, Martyn, I know the heat's gettin' to you guys at Yog Towers.
I love how Pea called him "Doodle-Do" just cus hes the rooster XD
This series makes me cry in every episode now
I've been waiting for this ever since that teaser!! :D
the place i was thinking of is Castaway Cove, and the episode Swaine joined the group is episode 25, its name is Welcome Swaine!
"I control the fate of this world!!!"
"Okay, Doodle-doo!"
XD
17:34 LEAVE IT TO PEA!
A goatherd or goatherder is a person who herds goats as a vocational activity. It is similar to a shepherd who herds sheep.

I can tell by you not knowing the phrase "ferret around" that you've never been to a Yorkshire village festival, Martyn. The 'ferret down the trousers' is an old classic round these parts.
Oh thank goodness. I thought it was going to be over. I CAN'T LOSE THIS. IT IS LIFE.

shes from the world that witchy called a "forsaken world" and it was destroyed by the manna thats why pea said its falling again
t unlocks a last Marcassain quest at the place with the flower pots (no hints!). This will give you a fantastic spell for part three of the White Witch fight.

In the third world they use shouts rather than using wands, but in order to enhance the power of the second world they use wands
The plot twists in this game are just so great
Anybody find it strange that Ollie's house lacked a toilet.
Who needs one when you have a back yard and a shovel?
the entire shadar thing is a harry potter reference
"you-know-who", "dark djinn" vs "dark lord", "despair" vs "dementors", etc...
I saw the end of the series episode and I started watching from ep 1 and I somehow watched them all in 2 days
When fighting zombies in the kingdoms you should use mugshot on them the have really good items
7 min. in and its all ready the best episode yet!!!!!
Hello martyn I recomend you get a dinoceros as they are strongn in attack and defense they live on the mountains around the temple of trials
i just noticed the councelers (or however you type it) also wield mornstar
The world is ending! "I want to see the kitchen, i want to see what the kitchens like". Martyn, priorities!!!
Does anyone know what happens when you say that you want to stay?
You don't progress in the story at all. ;-;
Hmm... maybe it's got to do with where the crystal is? Cos the sky isn't actually the source of the manna, it's those dark crystal things so since there's one of those underground in Hamelin it's making the manna fall on everyone.
and the six month long crusade continues ONWARDY INTO THE FRAY!!
martyn you may have missed this but the zodiarchs is a play on word of zodiac so when pea calls gallus doodle doo its because gallus has the sign of the rooster :)
like so he can see
no to mention Yule and the other towns have not been attacked. I guess that would be too any battles in a row for one player to handle, so they probably just focused on the three main places.
How long does it take to finish this game? I'm not complaining but it's so amazingly long.
Well done to the makers.
So, if everyone got turned into these zombie-like creatures, what happens to their soul mates in Oliver's world? Do they just get really sick or something?
i love how whenever a voice comes o0ut off nowhere thee characters wait until its finished talkting then react! lol
No more than that, she doesn't just stand there yelling random words when she fights.
I love that little "Uh Oh" Martyn did at 13:25. :) I was so cute!!
This is truly THE best lets play and game!
And now, for no particular reason, I'll translate 'Ni No Kuni'.
Ni can either mean 'brother', or 'two'.
No means the possessive 'of', except the two subjects are switched, for example 'the house of bob' would translate to 'bob no house' (if you leave 'house' in English).
Kuni means 'country', or in this case, 'world'.
So 'Ni No Kuni' means 'World of Two', or 'World of Brother' which are badly organised versions of 'The Second World' or 'The Brother World'.
If you're gonna extend the blame, blame the professors uncle. He sent the professor to other worlds and started the whole damn thing.
Gallus is from Skyrim, in the Theive's Guild questline!
When the White Witch was a kid the King would call her Pea. She called him Doodle-Do. When the kingdom was destroued The White Witch was pulled by dispair. To keep her sanity, she remove the emotion from her heart. This spirit bevame Pea as we know her, the complete opposite of The White Witch. While the Evil part of the two tricked Shadar and the Zodiarches, Pea rested waiting for someone to need her power and purity.
"Pea is now travelling with you! things are getting a little crowded..."
oh Martyn XD
Has anyone considered the fact that the White Witch's manna attack on Ni No Kuni apparently caused no influence on the soulmates in Motorville?
The most majestic and powertul spell in the world
It can return the transformed to their original form. It can bring zombies back to life.
Yes, I speak of none other than Sankify, Never judge a book by its name, folks.
So if a different zodiarch than Gallus helped them, would mornstar have looked like their staff? cus gallus's staff and mornstar are identical
Why?
Oliver is the counterpart of Shadar
Pea is the counterpart of the White Witch
I see nothing wrong?
"Ah, there's Pea.. Why is she crying? Well, lets ditch her for a moment while the world needs her".
I was just waiting for this episode because I already know what happens
I like how most of the time Marcassin's all lookking at Pea like "I wanna kidnape the girl"
I agree that was an error when they developed it. The original DS version had Oliver travelling back and forth from the town center unlike the PS3 version.
This visiblity between worlds thing doesn't seem to have a rule. Who can see what in which world? if pea is from oliver's world, and they can only see her in their world, wouldn't they only be able to see oliver in their world? and how come everyone in the other world can see oliver and pea while motorvillers can't see oliver's companions? it doesn't make sense.
I find it interesting that the undercover agent working to save the world is the Rooster. And the best part is Pea's nickname for him of "Doodle Doo." xD
Can someone explain to me how the snow got into Hamelin isn't it underground...
Gallus is the genus of chickens, hence the doodle doo quip.
I have almost finished this game. I bought it from CEX because I saw how fun it looked from you. I am on the final boss fight. The White Witch , Cassiopeia then the Zodiarchs
imagine that there is a plot twist in the game,that king tom is actually the white witch
I haven't played the game but I'm guessing shes the soul mate of the white witch and doodle-doo is a rooster in Motorville and she can see whose soulmates is whose. Just a guess of course.
"Why is Pea crying. Well let's go to the kitchen" you could have comforted her.
temporarily of course! Right?
When the White Witch says "I will not be denied!" , Martyn says "Uh oh" in a short, very slightly more high pitched tone, and that's all he has to say?
And in 7 months your up to here, I hope I'm not gonna take that long As it took nearly an hour for me to beat the molten boss
