Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva

It all began in the games.

"Professor Layton" is a puzzle game series

that is enjoyed by more than ,, players worldwide.

At long last, "Professor Layton" enters its second season.

This movie is connected to

the story of Professor Layton and Luke's first encounter,

and their first adventure,

"Professor Layton and the Specter's Flute".

Now, the story continues, from the game into the movie...

Luke, I finally found the answer to this unsolvable case.

Eh, did you solve the puzzle?

Ah, Professor, that's too bright.

The culprit escaped through here.

But there's no exit here.

After all, this case

began with the theft of an item that was impossible to steal.

After that threat letter was sent, the sound of the bell did disappear,

but there is no way that the bell itself could be stolen.

The biggest hint to solving this case is...

Layton blows on the sun thingy; no onomatopoeia equivalent in English

the message at the entrance of the tower.

"When all of the bodies of the sky come together,

RECHECK

the path to the future will be carved out"

What does that mean?

Have some patience, Luke.

After all, you are a gentleman, right?

Ah

This is the sky.

Naturally, all the bodies in the sky work together.

Eh, Professor, what are you doing?

You'll see soon enough.

Ah! This is...!

Dear viewers,

Just like this, Professor Layton solved the puzzle,

and settled yet another troubling matter in the city of London.

There is only one person here

who could have stopped that clock.

That person is you!

I won't forget this, Layton!

Hmph!

Aah! Don Paolo!

Here we go!

Uwahahahah...

Luke Right!

Flora, stay here!

Professor!

Get him, Barton!

Y-Yes!

Then, as usual,

Professor Layton was featured on the "London Times".

Professor Layton is both an outstanding archaeologist

and a puzzle scholar,

solving many puzzles around the world.

Also, he is the number one fan of puzzles among London's gentry.

I am his assistant, Luke.

I take care of the Professor's mail,

organizing mysterious letters and requests to solve puzzles,

make his tea,

making delicious tea,

and help the Professor organize, which he isn't very good at.

My special skill is...

I think I can understand animals.

I don't know how long it's been

since I've become the Professor's apprentice.

While we go through many puzzle-solving adventures together,

I also hope to become a true gentleman like Professor.

I'm still learning.

The key person behind this unsolvable case...

is you!

It's you!

It's you!

Hmm...

It's you!

Ah, that's why I'll have to clean here and there...

Hehe

Luke, do you remember this song?

Professor, this is Jenice's...

Yes.

It's already been three years, huh?

since we first met her during that incredible case.

One of Professor Layton's former students,

who is flourishing as a singer, Jenice Caitly.

The case began with a letter from her.

That case was...

my first puzzle adventure with the Professor.

Luke, that's the instrument that was

recently invented by Oslo Vislar:

the Detragon.

I heard the rumors that it is like a one-man orchestra, but...

It far exceeds my expectations.

It is truly beautiful.

The true beauty is Jenice, Professor.

It's been a while, Professor Layton.

Something incredible has happened, and I am left confused.

A dear friend who died of an illness a year ago,

Milena Vislar, has returned to life.

Plus, she has the appearance of a -year old.

This girl...

knows all of the secrets that only Milena and I knew,

so she must be the very same Milena.

Need better translation for "本人": "real deal" is too localized, "none other than Milena herself" is too verbose.

Milena said to me...

I've received eternal life, Jenice.

Professor Layton,

Does eternal life really exist?

It still isn't clear to me, Luke,

But all the answers should lie in that theater.

Let's hurry.

Hey, Miss Remi, be careful!

If you want to be Professor Layton's assistant,

you need to get used to things like this,

Assistant No. .

Assistant No. ?

I...I am not an assistant!

Oh, was I mistaken?

I am Professor Layton's apprentice.

And I'm not just an apprentice,

I am his first apprentice.

Heh, I wonder if the Professor has put his stamp of approval on that.

Ah, a-about that, of course...

Remi, what about your investigation?

That girl wasn't the only one who's claimed to have eternal life.

According to my rough investigation, there are several others.

Furthermore, there's a rumor about a strange peddler of eternal life

spreading throughout London.

"Eternal Life"...

"Eternal Kingdom"...

Eternal... kingdom?

The title of opera which Jenice is performing in today.

It's Mr. Oslo Vislar's new, long-awaited opera.

Redundant timing by SNOWRIN ("新作歌劇"; "new opera")

Oslo Vislar? Vislar...

Just as I thought!

The name of Ms. Jenice's resurrected friend is...

Milena Vislar.

She has the same last name as Oslo Vislar, Professor!

Milena is Mr. Vislar's daughter, after all.

"This opera is dedicated to my deceased daughter, Milena."

Professor, it's Professor Schrader!

Pic says Schröder, though

There's no need to be alarmed, Luke.

This opera is based off of my mentor's

lifelong pursuit of the eternal kingdom...

the legendary Ambrosia.

Right now, only a part of its emblem has been discovered;

we can't even say where it is.

It's a kingdom shrouded in mystery.

"The eternal kingdom, Ambrosia"

Please continue your investigation, Remi.

All right, Professor.

What a strange design this theater has, Professor.

It seems to be based off the artistic depictions of Ambrosia.

Needs better translation for "concept art" (orig: "image", as in artist's imagined image of Ambrosia)

Just what kind of legend is it, Professor Layton?

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful queen who loved music very much.

The queen was very much beloved by everybody in the kingdom.

But one day, the queen became sick.

The people of the kingdom toiled to find a cure,

but medicine couldn't be completed in time.

The queen finally passed away,

and right after, the cure was completed:

a potion for immortality.

"If only it was completed a bit sooner..."

The people of the kingdom deeply lamented for the death of their queen.

In order to meet the reincarnated queen again

they decided to become immortal,

using the just-completed immortality nostrum.

Ambrosia is

still somewhere in this world, waiting for its queen to return, as the legend goes,

but whether that is real or not is still a mystery.

Bravo!

Professor, why isn't everyone clapping?

To my dear audience, welcome to my Crown Petone theater.

You are in good fortune today,

because you have a chance to witness a miracle.

Bravo!

Finally, the main course of the night.

Now that's what I call a wake-up call!

Something that "sweeps away sleepiness"

Then, just as promised,

one of the audience here tonight

will receive eternal life.

Eternal life?

Looks like we were the only ones left in the dark, Luke.

But. There is one condition.

What condition?

Everyone will participate in a game,

and the winner shall receive eternal life.

But the others

shall offer their own lives in return.

Offer their lives? Just what is the meaning of this?

In order to receive this miracle,

dear audience, I require your complete resolve.

Immortality or death,

there is no other way.

Something like that, huh.

Don't joke with me, I wasn't told of this.

I only have months left anyways, so this is a good chance.

Lit: "To me who only has half of a year left, this is a good chance"

Game or whatever, I'll be happy to participate.

I...I want to go home. Please let me go home, right now!

Professor!

I am Inspector Growski from Scotland Yard.

I slipped in here when I heard of strange going-ons in the Crown Petone Theater,

but I never imagined it would be a trade of life.

Everyone, it's alright now!

The criminal who plotted to take away your lives

has been arrested by the great Inspector Growski!

Is that so, Inspector Growski?

Oh, it's Layton, right?

It's been a while.

And you are...

I'm Luke Triton.

Wh-What?

A-A puppet?

Professor, the ceiling!

Inspector!

Hahahaha...

Now then, everyone.

Let us begin on our voyage for eternal life.

Luke!

Ah, yes!

Ah!

The theater...

It morphed into a giant ship!

Just what is happening?

We're already so far away from the shore!

Unbelievable.

Wait, what are you doing?

I'm going to swim to shore.

That would be unwise to do.

I've never seen this before.

There's actually sharks in these waters.

I'm finally going home.

What a nice exercise.

Bye!

Don't tell me I'm in the middle of the ocean!

It's alright,

just leave everything to me.

I shall play

for you and your love for music.

lit: "for the music-loving you"

Don't get in my way!

Stop, stop!

Now isn't the time to play music!

We've been trapped in this theater, no...this ship!

Mr. Vislar.

You must be the one behind this!

Everything is going just as you planned, right?

I only created the opera I was commissioned for, nothing more.

Hm, I wonder.

based from Chinese TL, don't know if accurate

What should we do, Professor?

Professor Layton!

Jenice.

I'm sorry, Professor Layton,

I dragged you into this.

I never thought something like this would happen.

There's no need to apologize.

Helping damsels in distress is the duty...

...of every true gentleman.

That's the Professor Layton I know.

Where is the girl mentioned in the letter now?

She disappeared this morning.

I even asked Mr. Vislar,

but he answered that I should focus on the opera.

Everyone.

How does it feel to ride aboard the Crown Petone?

Then, we shall now start

the puzzle-solving game for eternal life.

Puzzle-solving...

game...

The game is simple.

The winner, a.k.a. the last survivor,

will receive eternal life.

Professor...

Under these conditions, we have no choice but to participate, Luke.

Then, let us begin.

Puzzle No.

Everyone, please observe your surroundings closely.

Please gather under "the oldest thing".

In addition, there is a time limit.

The time will run out

when the music stops.

so there's no time to idle around.

"The oldest thing."

Professor, let's go look for it.

Yes.

I'll come along.

Of course.

Isn't that a fish?

No, there's no way that's a fish.

Professor, there are a lot of things on this ship that could be the answer.

Hmmm...

Which one is the oldest?

There are a lot of things on this ship that could be the answer.

Please observe your surroundings closely.

"The oldest thing"...

Hm?

Consider this puzzle solved, Luke.

Now then, let's hurry back to the theater.

Eh?

Professor?

The answer is in the question.

Remember what the host said...

He said to "observe your surroundings closely",

But he never asked for the oldest thing on this ship.

Certainly, he never said, "on this ship".

That's because, the oldest thing isn't on this ship.

Then, where is it?

The oldest thing is...

The stars, which have existed for billions of years.

I see! Just what I would expect from Professor Layton!

Hm?

The time's run out.

The oldest things are the stars that continue to shine, even now, in the evening sky.

To those who stayed in this hall, congratulations.

All of you have received the right to face the next puzzle.

Now to continue on with Puzzle No. .

Everyone, please gather below where you can see the largest crown.

"The largest crown"?

It looks like the sponsor likes to gather people, huh.

There are many crowns adorning this ship

It would be difficult to compare their size in the time limit.

That means, these pieces of art...

are being used as bait to confuse us?

Professor Layton, will you be able to solve this puzzle?

I'm not sure...

...if this line is supposed to mean that Layton doesn't know either, or that Layton is sure. Pretty sure it's the former

P-Professor, please leave this puzzle to me!

Luke.

No problem, Ms. Jenice

I'm Professor Layton's first apprentice, after all.

You have a pretty reliable apprentice, huh

"The largest crown"...

Crown...

Hmm...Crown...

How does it feel to ride aboard the Crown Petone?

Ah, I see!

We're riding the Crown Petone right now!

What a smart boy!

I'm sure that the entrance of this theater

had a huge crown with the name "Crown Petone" written on it.

Ahh, that was a very large crown!

That's right, no doubt about it!

Professor, let's go too!

Everyone's already at the lobby now, right?

Um...Isn't the lobby in the other direction?

Ehh?

Professor, we're headed the wrong way.

Let's head back.

Just walk this way, Luke.

But...

The crown design on the entrance of the theater is only a decoy.

Eh!?

The host intended to make everyone think that the crowns on the ship were the decoys,

and misguide them to the lobby,

but that isn't the right answer.

What does that mean?

Only one person will receive eternal life.

The host wouldn't ask questions that the majority will answer correctly.

That's the clever part of this puzzle.

He thinks that we, who answered Puzzle No. by gathering in that room,

when asked with a question that follows the same pattern,

will give an answer that follows the same pattern.

I'm confused.

Heh, that's fine, you'll see soon enough.

Please be more careful, alright?

You're familiar with this, huh?

I spent most of my life as the captain of a trade vessel.

Call me O'Donnel.

Ok, let's hurry things up.

Mr. Vislar!

Jenice.

This is my foster daughter, Milena.

Hmph, you lot solved the puzzle, too?

Yes.

Aw, the competition has increased yet again.

B-But you just said that the entrance to the theater is the right answer...

In order to receive eternal life, I tricked those idiots.

Eh!?

I was panicking because you spoiled the big hint.

Allow me to help you.

Me?

Milena, where did you go...?

Why?

Why did you bring Professor Layton along?

Milena...

I can't let Professor Layton win.

You're my friend, right, Jenice?

Please, allow me to grant our wish!

Our?

Just where will this boat go?

To where you can see the biggest crown, of course.

B... But, where is the biggest crown?

You'll see in a few minutes, Luke.

You shouted the name of this boat out loud,

but you still don't know the answer.

Could I ask a question? Miss...

Emily is fine.

Emily, why did you participate in this game?

Ahh, surely, the ticket price for this opera isn't something a student like you could afford.

Emily didn't buy her ticket.

She was invited.

My music-loving daughter has passed away,

so I wanted to some young women to listen to my new opera in my daughter's stead.

Thus, I sent a few tickets out.

I thought that I should send these special tickets to special girls.

So I consulted newspapers like the "London Times".

Despite Ms. Emily's youth,

she is the all-England chess champion.

people left, huh.

But, if it's just these people,

winning doesn't seem so difficult.

Hmph, such confidence.

I should be the one to receive eternal life.

Then, my beauty shall shine on forever.

This seems just like the novel I've written, "m*rder on the Thames".

The protagonists of the novel were riding...

Are you Annie Dretchi?

That mystery writer?

My, my!

And aren't you the social butterfly whose millionaire husband passed away?

It's an honor to meet you, Lady Leidori.

I love to read gossip magazines.

My, my, it's truly an honor to be so close to so many famous persons.

Incidentally,

this beareded man is the CEO

of the giant trading firm World Fleet, Mr. Bagased.

BAGASED DOES NOT MATCH AUDIO D: / I KNOW, f*cking UK TRANSLATORS

Ehh?

And the one over there is the "Legendary Left Foot",

a former player on the English national soccer team.

Football is the more common phrase, but since soccer can't be mistaken, it's the better choice. The Japanese word is based off of soccer, anyways.

Pierre Starbuck, huh!

I thought I've seen your face somewhere before.

The "Legendary Left Foot" is just a joke now.

Ahh!

I need eternal life

so I can let this leg heal!

She's a shy child.

Mr. Vislar,

is the story about Milena's reincarnation and eternal life true?

Where did you here that from?

Don't tell me...

I only named my foster daughter after my deceased daughter,

nothing more.

But...

Jenice.

I'm very happy that you want Milena to return,

but Milena is no longer with us.

That's why I want to live a long life to fill my daughter's part.

At that time,

that man came with a request to create an opera with eternal life as a theme,

so I accepted the offer.

I never thought that things would end up like this.

Professor, the ship!

It's shaped just like a crown!

To those who are on the boats, congratulations.

All of you are now one step closer to eternal life.

Professor!

Please enjoy the rest of this cruise.

Yet another nice exercise.

My Scotland Yard spirit cannot be crushed!

Justice will always prevail!

Professor Layton!

Jenice!

What did the police say about your daughter's whereabouts?

There are still no clues..

Nina has very good memory.

She's never lost her way before.

Um...May I see a photo of Nina?

Yes.

Sis...

This is a bad sub because "oneechan" can refer to people other than an older sister. I chose to comment it out since I can't make an accurate translation.

Professor Schrader,

is this from Ambrosia?

As our only window to Ambrosia, it's a very important item.

Eternal life has fascinated humans since ancient times.

Everyone will eventually die one day,

It is a natural function.

That's why people strain their brains for a way to escape that fate.

Professor, is Ambrosia still out there somewhere?

I hope so.

Ambrosia not only has a legend of immortality, but an immeasurable wealth of history.

I've always wanted to examine it with my own hands.

News Flash!

Early this morning, a large group people riding in a lifeboat drifted ashore,

resulting a huge uproar.

The passengers were members of the audience in the Crown Petone Theater, which abruptly vanished last night.

However, singer Jenice Caitly, opera composer Oslo Vislar, and several others are still missing.

I repeat...

Excuse me!

Ahh, Remi!

Good grief.

Where is this...

It looks like an uninhabited island at a glance.

Don't tell me...

Is that so...just as I thought!

There's no doubt about it, this is Ambrosia!

Ambrosia?

No, rather, the place where Ambrosia once existed...

This is the scrapbook that I, amateur historian Marco Broshiv, laboriously filled

with everything having to do with the Eternal Kingdom, Ambrosia, during my spare time at work.

What an awfully thick scrapbook...

A history otaku, huh?

Please take a look.

The same emblem as this picture is right here!

It does look like Ambrosia's emblem.

I saw it in Professor Schrader's room before.

My wish, my wish has finally been granted!

I never thought that I would live to see this.

I see, so this is Ambrosia.

That means...

The medicine for eternal life is somewhere on this island?

Ah! Look at that!

Food, huh?

There's even wine.

"For the game's participants"

My parched throat is finally saved.

Maybe this is a reward for solving the puzzles.

Or is it a new puzzle?

Eh?

Whatever, I'm eating.

Delicious!

Really!

All of this seems just like a dream.

This game, this island...

And dining outside with Professor Layton while viewing the ocean.

Isn't eating outdoors a natural part of learning how to investigate ruins?

The ruins and the beach are different things.

Though to Professor, the ruins might be more romantic.

Here.

You can hear the sound of the waves like this, see?

But I never heard it clearly before.

I can hear it.

Eh, really?

What a beautiful melody!

The ocean taught it to me.

The ocean?

Did you just hear... huh?

Mr. Vislar, Milena disappeared!

She was just there!

She probably just went somewhere else to play.

Don't worry, she'll come back later.

Everyone,

it's about time to wrap up your afternoon tea.

Literal is break time, but I thought "tea time"/"afternoon tea" is more fitting.

Professor, it's a pack of wolves!

Now, shall we serve dessert?

Run away!

That's strange, Professor,

the wolves don't seem to understand me.

They may be controlled by someone.

Jenice! Luke! Run!

Yes!

I can't do this, I can't run anymore!

...Then why are you still running,

you stubborn old hag!

I see a river!

Hmm? That's...!

Is that a castle?

Puzzle No.

Everyone, please cross this river and come to the black castle in front of you.

Professor!

First, we'll need to take care of those wolves.

Persistent wolves!

Professor, look at this!

Cages?

I know, Luke.

We'll use those cages to get us out of this pinch!

Lit: it's really "pinch" ("pinchi"), but anything that resembles "crisis", "big trouble" works

Have at you, wolves!

Let's go

Ahh, wait!

Come over here!

Now! Let it go!

Bollocks!

Hey, doesn't this look like we've captured ourselves?

That is the answer to the puzzle.

I see.

, , , , , ...

How stupid.

Shutting ourselves in the cage is much more practical than shutting the wolves in.

Critical thinking is the key to success for this puzzle, Luke.

Lit: it's think the other way around, or reverse your thinking

Just what I expect from you, Professor.

Even if it's stupid, we have no choice.

Alright, together now

Lit: "Alright, first, our stepping", "stepping" is like tempo or marching

, , , , , ...

That university professor called Layton

looks like a sharp man with that face.

Professor, we have trouble!

Run!

Again, Professor?

Getting a bit of exercise is a good thing, Luke.

Lit: "Getting a bit of exercise" was "perspiring", or "sweating", hence the next line

Even a true gentleman perspires once in a while.

Into that shed!

Yes!

Hurry!

Ms. Jenice!

Yeah!

Interesting...

Someone still lives on this island.

Professor, what are you doing?

I thought of a way to get us out of this dilemma.

Let me help too!

Finished!

Let's go!

Lit: it's more of a statement: "we're going" or "we're lifting off"

Eh, but...

Hold on tight!

Professor Layton, this is supposed to be a helicopter, right?

That was my intention.

Tone: Like the professor intended to make a helicopter but wasn't very successful

Professor, hurry up!

The wolves are...!

I can't change its speed, Luke.

It's as if we're flying around like butterflies!

Lit: like we're riding on butterflies!

Are you alright, Ms. Jenice?

If you're afraid, you can hold onto me!

No, I'm not afraid.

I'm even having a little fun.

You really think this is fun?

Yes!

I see it, Professor, it's that black castle!

We're going to land, so hold on tight!

Right!

No, hey, I still have to pilot...!

Welcome to my castle, Hershel.

Everyone, please gather on the terrace of the castle.

You're finally here!

And I thought you became dog food!

Luke.

Then, let us begin Puzzle No. .

Observe that there are four doors leading to different towers.

Please examine the floor of the terrace.

Professor, there are letters written on the floor.

One of the four towers

was once the king's quarters.

Please find the door to the king's quarters,

and enter the tower.

H, I, K, G...What does that mean?

I'm so close to eternal life.

Tower... king... tower...

Ah, I see, Professor!

This time I'm sure it's the right answer.

King is spelled K-I-N-G.

Look, if you write "in" between "K" and "G", doesn't that spell King?

So the door between "K" and "G" is the right answer.

Wow, that's amazing, Luke!

Luke, can you take care of yourself for a while?

Eh?

There is something I must investigate.

Ah, how could...

The goal of this game may not be eternal life.

It's alright.

You'll never go wrong if you follow that professor.

Wait, you two, this is...

I'll save you two later, please wait!

Hmmm?

Professor...

Don't worry, I'm sure that Professor will return.

Why!? This should be the right answer!

You're...!

Luke, do you know him?

Just who are you?

I am de Scole.

You could say that I am a scientist who is reaching for the highest stars.

Lit: You could say that I am the scientist with loftiest aspirations.

Now then, everyone.

As per the host's will,

the game ends here.

Isn't the last survivor supposed to receive eternal life?

What are you up to, de Scole!?

Ms. Emily, please come.

Wh...What are you doing?

What are you doing with Ms. Emily?

Don't come near me!

No!

Ms. Jenice!

Heyyy!

Over here, over here!

So what I saw when the ship blew up was the lifeboat?

Most of the audience of the Crown Petone Theater was on board.

It's causing quite an uproar in London.

But that's strange.

I'm sure that I saw two lifeboats.

Two?

Yea, the other craft was heading in a completely different direction...

I have a bad feeling about this.

Just as I thought. She lives here.

"The Song of the Sea"?

What a beautiful view.

I came to meet you...

Milena.

Don't...

Don't get in my way!

When did you start living here?

After I fell sick.

We heard that the climate here might be good for me,

so Papa brought me to this island.

That's how I recovered...

Recovered?

I didn't hear that you recovered,

but rather, you became reincarnated.

That's right, I came back to life.

I died because I fell ill...ugh!

I didn't die! I got well!

I was brought here...

I can't say! It's a secret!

But...

Shh!

Milena?

I'm not Milena!

That's right, I'm Milena.

No, I want to go home!

Stop, stop!

Hmm?

Ah! You are...

This way!

Right!

Alright, alright, alright!

Hey! Don't step on my scrapbook!

I'll protect you, Ms. Jenice!

Luke!

Ms. Remi!

Sorry I made you wait, Assistant No. .

I'm his first apprentice!

I'm Growski of Scotland Yard.

You're all under arrest!

Is everyone alright?

Professor Layton!

Nina!

Nina?

I met your parents.

Papa and Mama?

They're very worried about you.

Professor, de Scole captured Ms. Emily!

Ah, let us hurry then.

Yes

The time has finally come.

Everything will be fine if you do as I say.

You're the reason everything's a mess!

Everything is within my calculations.

Ahh, Mr. Vislar!

Are you the one behind this?

Ms. Emily, please come over here.

Where are the others? Why only me...?

That's because I'm going to award you eternal life, of course.

This is...

The Detragon.

It was brought from the ship.

The Detragon is an instrument essential to my music...

but also the apparatus that will give eternal life.

I am its creator.

Now, come over here.

What? Um...

W-Wait, I want to give eternal life to my grandpa.

The doctors say that my grandpa has less than a month left...

Isn't eternal life a medicine?

Then, bring my grandpa here...

I can't let you do that.

Stop!

Wait, let me go! Stop!

S... Stop!

I said to stop!

Stop!

Are you alright?

Mr. Vislar, you had no intention of giving eternal life to the winner!

What you are doing instead is taking life!

On what grounds do you base that assertion?

I finally found the answer.

The frightening truth in this game.

What does this all mean, Professor?

One year ago, as Milena was dying,

no... because she was dying,

you poured a huge amount of capital into creating the large-scale musical apparatus, the Detragon,

with the help of that scientist, de Scole.

The Detragon isn't just a simple instrument,

It is also capable of recording one's memories, and copying them into other people.

A truly terrifying machine.

Try to combine the previous two lines

What?

It copies memories?

But the Detragon's memory copy function is still incomplete.

Though it can copy memories, these copies are not permanent.

The true memories slowly erode them away.

I understood this when I saw Nina.

Would you mind telling me again...

Who were you with a moment ago?

Yeah! Ms. Milena!

After many failures,

you frantically searched for a brain that could take in Milena's memories.

The idea to invite outstanding young women like her...

obsolete timing; please ignore

and trick them along with everyone else into a game for eternal life...

was de Scole's, I fear.

...All because you couldn't wait to copy Milena's memories, Mr. Vislar.

Just what I expected from you, Layon.

Since when did you notice my hand in this?

I had my hunches, but they were only confirmed once I saw this ominous black castle.

I thought of you immediately when I realized that someone was behind the scenes, de Scole!

If this is the case, then I'm fine with you too!

If this is the case, then a shota is fine too!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Milena's memories must be preserved!

There's no time left!

Stop!

Ahh!

How...

Wh...Who took it out?

Who?

Layton, was it you? If we don't do this now...

The Detragon can only hold the memories for so long!

Calm down, Mr. Vislar.

I know the culprit who stopped this apparatus.

Wha-?

That person is the key to understanding this flurry of events.

Somebody beyond even your suspicion.

Who is it?

You still don't know?

The person who is hiding behind a mask, and wants to stop you more than anyone else.

I can't use "her" because that would spoil the big reveal

Wants to stop him more than anyone else?

That person... is you!

Ah...

M... Ms. Jenice?

It's about time to come clean, Jenice.

No... Ms. Milena.

That's right, I am Milena.

I'm in my good friend Jenice's body.

When I first realized that, I was shocked.

However, I couldn't believe that

Jenice accepted my existence.

She buried her consciousness deep within her, and gave me freedom.

I was always bedridden,

so I was thrilled that I could move freely.

I...I don't know what to say...

Congratulations, Vislar.

We have achieved our goal.

But, one day,

I realized that this is wrong.

I can't sacrifice my friend to continue living.

You are the one who sent me the letter, right?

I was right in choosing you, Professor Layton.

Professor would definitely be able to stop Papa.

I wanted so much for you to stop him.

I can't always stay in Jenice's body.

However, if he still had that machine,

I was sure that Papa would never stop creating copies.

Milena...

I've heard so much about Professor Layton from Jenice.

Jenice has always admired you, Professor Layton.

Milena,

I did all this for you...

Thank you, Papa.

I'm very thankful for your thoughtfulness.

But please, never do frightening things like this again.

I can't live on with you, dear, so...

Professor, the ceiling!

What?

Milena!

What are you trying at, de Scole?

I need Milena's memories for my real objective.

Real objective?

The resurrection of Ambrosia!

It all began when I discovered the complete emblem of Ambrosia.

Layton, what do you think the lines on the emblem mean?

A musical score!

That's right. Ambrosian music.

In short, the emblem is the first key to opening the door to Ambrosia.

"The Song of the Stars" is carved on the emblem.

"The Song of the Stars"?

The second key is you, Milena.

I'm the second key?

The first key isn't enough to resurrect Ambrosia.

The emblem hints at the existence of a second key.

Ah, "The Song of the Sea".

The stars and the sea. When the two melodies join together,

the legendary kingdom of Ambrosia will be resurrected.

I didn't notice

that you were targeting the kingdom itself!

When I solved the puzzle on the emblem,

the only one who correctly remembers the "The Song of the Sea"...

was no longer able to sing it.

But her memories were still preserved.

I wanted a perfectly copied memory -

even more than Vislar!

Ms. Jenice!

Luke!

Be careful, everyone!

Stop!

Sing if you want to save them, Milena!

Now then, I've prepared this last stage just for you.

Sing, Milena!

Sing "The Song of the Sea"!

Come on, Milena!

Are you alright, Luke?

Rise again, Ambrosia!

To the exit!

Luke!

Right!

Professor!

Huh?

Why? Why won't it appear?

One more time, sing! Sing!

That's it!

Why...

Why?

Why?

If the door to the kingdom won't open, then I'll have to force it open myself!

What's that?

It's so huge...

Professor, what in the world is de Scole doing?

Go!

Detra Gigant!

Milena!

Milena!

Mr. Vislar!

Someone, save Milena...

If we can use some of the kingdom's power...

Remi, I'll leave everyone to you!

Luke, follow me!

Right!

Show yourself, Ambrosia!

Show me your treasures and knowledge!

Come on...

Show yourself!

That's...?!

Layton?

Interesting. You actually want to oppose me with that heap of junk.

Ms. Milena!

Anyone who gets in me way, die!

Hahahaha...

Stop!

Annoying wench!

Lit: more like "don't get in my way", but since that has been repeated for a few times, I didn't want to put it here

Professor, I'll go save Ms. Milena!

No, it's too dangerous!

It's fine! Please trust me, professor

as a future gentleman!

I'll leave it up to you, Luke!

Right!

Cue out-of-place techno track boogity boogity

This is its limit!

More than enough!

Hold on for just a while longer, Ms. Milena!

I'm coming to the rescue!

Luke Trition...

What an audacious kid!

Ms. Milena!

Luke!

Professor!

Hahahaha! Blown to pieces, huh.

What a lucky guy!

Thank you, Luke.

Ah...That was nothing!

Hmph...Amateur!

I wonder about that, de Scole.

The puzzle on the emblem

What?

You were certainly on the right path to solving the puzzle.

On the right path?

Just the Songs of the Stars and the Sea isn't enough.

There are three keys to the resurrection of Ambrosia, de Scole.

Your mistake was that you only saw the emblem from one angle.

If you reverse the score of the stars, the third melody appears.

Ahh, the Sun!

That's right, the third key

is "The Song of the Sun"!

If the sun doesn't sing,

then dawn will never shine on Ambrosia!

De Scole!

Milena, sing "The Song of the Sea"!

Yes!

Layton!

I'll be the one to investigate Ambrosia!

De Scole!

Professor!

Professor!

At this rate,

it's only a matter of time until that monster explodes!

Hurry up and escape!

What should we do, Professor?

This way, Luke!

Milena!

Milena!

Are you alright?

Milena...

Milena.

Milena!

Milena?

Milena...

Milena.

Papa...

Milena!

Thank goodness you're alright!

Don't leave me again, don't abandon me again!

Papa.

We promised, didn't we, that I would protect you!

Let's go home, and play the piano together...

I'm sorry.

Before my death and even now, I can only bring Papa misery and sadness.

That's not true! I was the one doing those terrible things!

I didn't save your life...

That was destiny, Papa, it wasn't your fault.

But I need you...

Please, Papa, turn over a new leaf.

I don't need a new leaf!

I know.

Even if I disappear completely, you'll always remember me.

"my memories" is intended to mean "memories of me". Change and if it's too confusing

That way I will always be with Papa,

even if I can't be seen.

Don't say that, don't say any more!

Milena...

Papa, when you left for your concerts, haven't you always said,

"No matter how far..."

"No matter how far Papa is, I always feel close to you when I play the piano."

I always thought of Papa,

and I felt close to you, too.

When Papa thinks of me,

I'll always be at Papa's side.

Goodbye, Papa.

Thank you for everything.

Being a very important line, you might want to reword this a thousand times until it sounds good. Lit is more like: Thank you for loving me.

I need to leave now.

Jenice,

sorry for borrowing your body for so long.

Don't go, Milena!

If you go, you'll no longer...

It's alright, Jenice, I won't leave.

For Papa's sake too.

I'm glad that you value my pendant so much.

Milena!

Goodbye

From now on, you'll live as yourself, Jenice Caitly.

Goodbye, Papa.

Milena!

Goodbye, Luke,

the future gentleman.

Ms. Milena...

And goodbye, Professor Layton.

Milena.

I am truly fortunate that

you are here to see me off.

Lit: to remember you as the last of my memories.

Milena?

Mile...

Professor Layton, Milena left,

even though she was just by my side...

Ms. Jenice!

Ms. Milena didn't leave!

Luke...

Even if she disappeared, her memory is always by your side,

didn't Ms. Milena say so?

Isn't that right, Professor Layton?

Indeed.

Her memory is always by your side...

Her memory is always by your side...

Mr. Vislar, you are under arrest.

Please, let me play just one last song!

Ambrosia's immortality wasn't eternal life,

but the eternal sleep that the kingdom fell to, to mourn their queen.

Yet another puzzle solved, Professor.

Professor,

maybe Ms. Milena was the reincarnation of Ambrosia's queen.

That may be, Luke.

The kingdom finally woken up from its eternal slumber, and begun a new era,

because the queen's...the Eternal Diva's soul has returned home.
