My name is Emma and this is my Ni No Kuni blog! This is also my only currently active tumblr account which I post primarily content related to the Ni No Kuni franchise.

More facts about me are that go by she/her pronouns, I’m 22, and have been a fan of this franchise for over 10 years now… I officially feel very old😅😅

I am also a flutist and aspire to become a professional musician! My love for music flows into my post series entitled “Ni No Kuni Music Analysis” where I deep dive into the soundtracks of the games!

Hey y’all! Took a break from posting because life has been a little weird for a bit. I had to send my instruments off last Wednesday to get cleaned and they don’t come back until mid next week… and I’ve been going crazy with all this time on my hands😭😭

So instead of doom scrolling, last night I played some WOTWW and fought Shadar!! The fight was lowkey not too bad! I made it through the 1st 2 stages with no one fainting and then as soon as I start the third phase, Esther goes down. Also that battle field is so small and it was kinda annoying tbh😬

Anyways, I’m onto the White Witch arc and, as one does , I’ve been taking screenshots. I noticed this comment that Swaine makes is a DOTDD reference (two-bit=2D=DS, thoughts!?)!!😱😱

Also saw that one side quest couple walking in the Ding Dong Dell entrance cutscene and I laughed out loud. Glad to see them celebrating Shadar’s demise😂😂

Today’s the day!!! I finally graduate from undergrad with a degree in music performance! I OF COURSE wanted to decorate my cap with the video game that gave me the largest inspiration: Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch. The NNK games have inspired my whole music career. I remember being a little baby middle schooler listening to the soundtracks and dreaming of playing in an orchestra.

I’ve been waiting patiently (or trying to at least lol) to post these for y’all on my graduation date since I took photos like a month ago. This little tumblr community has also been a place of inspiration and encouragement. I love each of y’all and how we’ve grown up together throughout the years. Through the daily posts and especially Secret Santa each December, we all come together and celebrate what makes the Ni No Kuni franchise so special!

Heya!! Currently making my way through finals week which means I’ve only played twice in 2 weeks😭😭

I did eat some cake, made by yours truly the other day (and possibly burnt the edges and had to cut them off… woopsies😅), and gambled for a bit before going to start the pirate dungeon.

I do like that they fleshed out the story a bit more for the pirate ship!!

I also appreciated this Esther line, she has more of them in DOTDD, but there’s more banter with Swaine in WOTWW I find. Go off on his ass sis!!🫡😅😅😅

Anyways, we killed the pirate captain and I stopped there for tonight! I’ll definitely play more soon as I’m pretty much done with school. Buttttt I do have to admit that I got sidetracked the last fews days since I was watching Avatar the Last Airbender. I saw all those movie clips and wanted to rewatch the show again😅
