    pros The game itself is pretty good. cons Rotating Diorama is made of cheap plastic with bad mechanical clockwork spring. 3D display is made of paper cardboard which is easy to broken and very difficult to assemble. Lofty plush looks cheap and small. Music CD ONLY have FOUR soundtracks. I don't know why they made this because there are lots of different kinds music in the game. My suggestion is go to EU Kings Edition version which is much better than US Collector's Edition.

    Everything included looks really great. Wish the diorama played music when it was spinning! Game has made many improvements on the first also.

    Only 30,000 of these were produced. Ni No Kuni 2 is a action rpg which had production help Fromm Studio Ghibli. The game is great, and this edition of the game comes with a lot of items. If you’re a fan of Ni No Kuni, try and acquire a copy of this game.

    Although this game is a lot cheaper now - 2 years after release day -, I saw the collector's edition available and decided to add this beautiful toy to my collection. However, the diorama project was a complete hot mess to build; nonetheless, the end result was great. My only complaint is that the box was damaged and it wasn't because of the shipping process but rather because the anti-theft device that Best Buy places in these products.

    Beautiful game with very charming characters and environments. My only complaint is that it's just a bit too easy, but that does make it great for younger players.

    The items included in the collector's edition was worth the price I have always enjoyed the collector's editions made by Bandai Namco. The quality of the statue is solid and the additional extras are great. The game itself is an improvement to the original, in the sense that it is faster paced and more involved. The game does not have as many animated scenes as compared to the first game but overall it is a good game.

    I love the art style. Gameplay mechanics are indeed much better than the original Ni No Kuni, though it is quite easy.

    This is the whole set! I'm a little sad that the diorama isn't as grandeur (for lack of a better word) than I thought it would be through the pictures. The whole thing is kinda bunched up together and the spinning system is a bit mediocre. But if you're a fan of the first game on PS3, the game is a huge improvement! Great story and characters. And it includes all the extra DLC and season pass goodies. I'm glad I got it at a decent discount.

    Really good value for the collectors edition. This is assuming that the season pass has good content. The diorama, plushie, and papercraft kit are great additiond for the bundle. Good purchase if only just for artbook and season pass. very satisfied A+++

    This is a great game ! Story moves along at a good pace. The music is fantastic !! Everything (except music) is completely different from the first game. So no need to play the first to enjoy this game. Highly recommended .... but maybe wait for a price drop or sale price.

    I encourage any and everyone who has played the first Ni No Kuni or love RPGs to give this game a try. It's simply beautiful graphically and the battle system does not get repetitive. It's a must own for any fans of Studio Ghibili and RPGs.

    A Failed JRPG - Don't consider this a sequel

    I'd give this game a 5/10 I've played the first one This is coming from someone who's played many FF games (X being the best and 13 the worse) Persona 5 was my first of its kind and I think that game is the best JRPG of the newer generation. Here are the reasons I really disliked Ni No Kuni 2. The first one had an amazing story, amazing sound track, graphics, characters, VOICE ACTING. Many complained about the Pokemon style battle, at first we weren't a fan, however, I got used to it and was fine with it. I've also played many Pokemon games in the past. My wife played the game while I fought the bosses and also did some grinding to level up. This game lacked almost everything. I really don't get how people think this game has a good story, it's not even a decent story. It starts out fine but then falls flat and makes no sense. It forces events. You're doing fetch quests almost the entire game. The battle becomes a hack and slash and gets repetitive over time. There's no strategy involved on who to pick for your party. Everyone's attacks are pretty much the same. There's no good reason for anyone to join your party but they just decide to anyways. Lack of voice acting takes you out of the experience. I spent about 50 hours and beat this game only because it still had a charm to it from the first and the battle was easy. As the game kept going, it just kept bugging me more and more of how much they messed up. Lofty (Drippys counterpart) is so pointless in this game and barely talks, he isn't useful at all. I hope this is not the new standards for JRPGs because this game lacked so much. My wife usually loves watching JRPG games or playing thru some of them, this is one game she didn't bother watching because there wasn't really a story and the lack of voice acting was annoying. Way too much text to read, I ended up skipping a bunch since it was really boring. I just don't get how anyone could give this game a 10/10 or even an 8 Persona 5 is a 10 This is a solid 5 PS...I bought the collectors edition...yay
