it's a bit hard to pinpoint when exactly i got into the klonoa series to be honest... i remember i used to see klonoa around here and there throughout the years but didn't think much of it. most prominently i remember seeing him on this old (now defunct) roblox roleplay game from when i played roblox frequently from 2016 to 2018, where you could pick him as a character. nobody ever played as him but i thought he was cute

relating to this, in late 2017 (for my birthday) i got a drawing app on my nintendo 2ds called colors 3d! it's honestly pretty robust for somethin on the ds, and i've made a lot of my best art on it!
either way though, it had tags and such you could search for stuff for, and i remember in mid 2019 i was looking at an artist's gallery and saw they had klonoa stuff, i thought it was cute so i looked through the klonoa tag, enjoyed all the characters i was seeing, and then thus looked up a playthrough of door to phantomile

ever since then ive been a klonoa fan! i picked up lunatea's veil on my birthday in 2019 via an ebay bidding, and i played the hell out of it lmao
i've been kind of out of major interest for the series for a year since then, but i still love it passively and try to keep an eye on news relating to the game

so yea! that's how i found klonoa

What got me into Klonoa was finding the Klonoa 2 demo that came with my PS2. I absolutely loved it, so my dad tracked down a copy of the full game for me, and the rest was history!

I first played the original game around the time it initially came out.

Didn't play 2 until about 2016 though.

Pretty simple...

A friend of mine send me a Klona review, but I ignored it. 1 or 2 weeks after the same channel did a review of PRS.

I watched both reviews and decided to try it out (stepping wind was also a major reason).

6 months or passed while occasionally listining to stepping wind while playing BF4 and I finally playe Klonoa on the Wii,
and right after beating it I got into emulation, because the game was too easy, I played the 2nd game afterwards and since the summer of '23 I'm into Klonoa  .

I was just a 5 year old kid, the father of my brother(s) would install games on my Wii, one of them was Klonoa.
... Anndddd yeah that's it really, but, why am i here? I was watching Caddicarus around 2019, 2020, 2021, he reminded me of the game's name, it was always stuck in the depths of my memory, but i never could remember the game's name, just the characteristics... And that also made me realize, the game was on Playstation originally?! And since then i fell in love with it, and of course, like the average Klonoa fan, i was sh*ting all over the Wii remake, even tho, nowadays, i think it doesn't deserve all the hate. 

[Lol]

I'm not sure when really but....

I think I watched Caddicarus's Klonoa video (The Remake, not the god awful original.) And loved klonoa ever since.

Here's the video:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dBsnoLxGO_k

Caddicarus never reviewed the remake as far as i'm aware.  He reviewed the PS1 version twice.

[Lol]

By remake, I meant how he remade his old Klonoa video because it was trash, I didn't mean to confuse. Sorry!

(I do like the original DTP, I haven't played the Wii remake )

[rapappa the pepper]

Ah, okay. Would've been incredibly surreal to see some one actively hating Door to Phantomile PS1, i think the 2012 video is fine but the 2018 video is better, i met Klonoa by my self on the Wii around the early 2010s but i don't recall when exactly, and i never knew the name of the game, nor did i ever really get far in it, thanks to Caddy's 2018 video, not only did i found out this game was originally on the PS1, it was also the reason i got to know Klonoa back.

[Lol]

Thx!
