This spring, a Layton’s Mystery Journey anime series debuts in Japan and follows the adventures of Professor Layton’s daughter, Katrielle Layton.
As you’d expect, the animation looks terrific.
Layton’s Mystery Journey begins broadcasting on April 8 on Fuji TV.

Hopefully this series might not only answer the question ‘Where’s your father?’ but also ‘How’s your mother?’
Seriously though, I’ve never been a fan of the Single Parent plot device that keeps getting used too much.
