Will they be able to fix the mistakes of the past? What really happened in the past - did Sheena's ancestors truly betray Arceus? What the stunning finale to the trilogy when all of the secrets of the previous two movies will be revealed!

Oh, so the title really WAS Arceus and the Jewel of Life. Unlike the titles of the last two movies, that title actually makes sense. In the official Japanese movie manga it was all about the 命の宝玉 (Inochi no Hougyoku, Jewel of Life) after all.

What\'s also nice is that they used the Japanese names this time instead of some other stupid names as they usually did. \'Michina Town\' sounds a bit weird though o_O

But yeah, I won\'t watch the English dub version anyways. Nothing can beat the original Japanese dub x3
