A portion of a Planet3DS interview with Shun Nakamura...

Planet3DS.de: Rhythm Thief & The Emperor's Treasure is about the 18-years old thief Raphael who returns stolen artifacts after three days. What makes the story special and how important is it in the game?

Shun Nakamura: The storyline of Rhythm Thief & the Emperor’s Treasure revolves around a gold coin left behind by Raphael’s father when he vanished. The coin bears the same crest as on a bracelet on display at the Louvre, leading Raphael to believe this will hold the secret to his disappearance. On his quest to find out the truth behind this mystery, Raphael encounters a mysterious girl who is soon discovered to be connected to the crest. The story contains these and more elements which will deeply affect each other’s, the mixtures of secrets and people’s thoughts. The story is varied in character, but at the same time remarkably unified in vision and theme serving the sense of mystery that pervades the game.
