I find it odd that Phoenix does a left-handed pointing action in the art, but a right-handed one in-game when doing the double-style with Layton.

[up]About that, I also noticed that, trying to figure out who did the "disadvantaged" point (as both Layton and Wright are right-handed, I believe). I think it was to balance both of them out.

Doesn't Phoenix usually do a left-handed one in the games? I thought he'd be the one doing it left-handed when doing it with Layton.

He switched hands just so he could be Back-to-Back Badasses with Layton.

...To be honest I'm not sure about Phoenix's pointing because Capcom is infamous for its Ambidextrous Sprite uses in these games...

I don't really think that trope really applies to the Ace Attorney series all that much. I can only really remember a handful of instances when sprites could've been flipped, none of which involve Phoenix.

I still don't get how this is supposed to work. Is there time travel involved or something?

As I recall the game's villian "The Storyteller" summons Layton and Pheonix from their respective universes and places them into a third universe. And Layton CAN be set in modern times (space travel was mentioned in Unwound Future).

We don't know the details yet. For now, I think we better just go with it.

I gotta say though, in the final scene with Phoenix and Layton dramatically pointing back-to-back, their faces look a bit wooden. Doesn't look like an "OBJECTION!!!!!!" face to me.

Apparently, the "trial style" in this game was designed in such a way that both Layton and Phoenix would get pissed off by it.

This game is trolling its protagonists. Awesome.

[up]And Code Geass and most every other nicely done anime that wasn't by Madhouse. And I think it was stated in one of the trailers.

That would be hilarious.

So I know that the comment Maya made about last seeing Phoenix is GS 3/T&T is probably not going to be in the official game, but has Phoenix not seen Maya since then? If the game is post AJ that makes Phoenix even sadder.
