Okay, so now that I've finished (or at least, been through the credits) of Ni No Kuni, I feel like I can finally talk about it.
This was pretty much the best game ever.
This is only slight hyperbole - it is a serious contender for my new 'favourite game of all time'. I need to gush. I'll give warnings for spoilers that happen later on or are terribly story-related.
The game just oozes Ghibli, and in fact is probably better than many of Ghibli's recent movies. This is made by Level 5, who are perfectly brilliant in their own right, but their hand is all but invisible in it. It's just... so visually stunning. I mean, look at it.

The whole game looks like that.
( Lots more gushing under the cut )
