Introduction

Released in the US on April 2008, The World Ends With You (It's A Wonderful World in Japan) is easily one of the best games on the DS. The game takes full advantage of the dual screens and touchscreen features with a unique gameplay style that I think is just incredible. Combine this with a surprisingly good story and a great soundtrack and, well, it's great.

This is a hybrid LP, so the screenshots don't cover things in the videos, and vice-versa.

Some style notes about dialogue:

: Normal text after a portrait like this are things I am saying aloud, even if to myself.

: Italicized text are my thoughts, explicitly in thought balloons. Sometimes I switch between thoughts and speech in the same monologue.

: The game sometimes uses red text to denote a story term with a different definition from normal. Such red text will be bolded. Normally this only happens the first time the term appears.
