The Ace Attorney Series

It's too bad she's only really your partner for two cases.

Though that last case may as well be two cases by itself. SO LONG.

I KNOW SERIOUSLY. But I loved every bit of it. Except about half way through it right after Shi-Long pulled a bad/dumbass move by holding down Shih-na. after that the whole case was never as fucking epic. Disappointment ensued.

Thought of the day (well actually last night): I was reading Deep Secret by Diana Wynn Jones (awesome-as-hell author) and the character Maree keeps describing this one attractive stranger as "fabulous." She used that adjective like a dozen times. I can only picture him as looking exactly like Max Galactica, who is one of my favorite characters even though he was only in one case. Thank you, Justice For All.

After playing AAI again, I would be satisfied with an entire game about Lil' Franziska running around kicking people in the knee.

Oh, man. Lil' Franziska + Lil' Edgey + examining the snack machine = THE MOE! IT BUUUUUUURRRRRNS!!!!!!!!!

^How's that Moe? I found that scene hilarious, but Moe? No.

Moe is defined partially by sunmissiveness right? How os Fransizka sunmissive?

Guess I got the definition wrong. Sue me.

Oh, I'll sue. I'll sue by the bucketload.

I shall be Electrovirus's defense. The defense is ready your honor.

Is the prosecution ready?

The prosecution is always ready.

If the prosecution and defense would proceed with their opening statements.

Oh crap.

*Klak klak klak*

The defendant will refrain from such outbursts unless he is called to the bench.

Moe is an icredibly vague term of Japanese origin. Cute as in Generic Cuteness is a typical sign of it at work. Look at Franny and you shall see that she is cute.

*grumble*

Has anybody heard anything about Ghost Trick? Made by the same team, sounds like it might be pretty interesting.

I think we have a thread for that somewhere. I recall that's where I first heard about the game. But yeah, I'm definitely interested. Actually, I would be interested no matter what the game was, simply because of its relation to Ace Attorney.

Ah, this was the thread I meant: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=o4q2sc5qesavzhz7zl9mtpzk&page=1

Well, I just had an odd revelation about something that bugs me.

In the first game, it's mentioned that the statute of limitations on DL-6 was 15 years.

In Apollo Justice, it's said that a person is declared legally dead after 7 years absence.

Misty Fey went missing shortly after DL-6.

So why is it that Maya wasn't declared Master of the Kurain Chanelling Technique 8 years before she met Phoenix?

The Kurain Chenneling school is private. The government isn't going to say "LOL you have to stop waiting for you mom to come back she's dead."

• So apperently after Ghost Trick their developing Ace Attorney 5 for the Nintendo 3 Ds. How will the series actually benefit from 3D? We'll have to wait and see.

OK that makes sense.

You know, I just realized, maybe Zak isn't a complete jerk. See, I just thought of one possibly reason as to why he would abandon everything instead of giving Phoenix the evidence that would prove him innocent.

Perhaps he was trying to spare Valant's career. Remember, at the time, nobody even thought of the possibility that Magnifi committed suicide so if Zak had been proven innocent, everyone would naturally assume that Valant was the one who had done it.

So by leaving, he thought that everyone would take that as a confession of guilt, and that would allow Valant to continue his career, alongside Trucy, once she'd been trained. Remember how, once Phoenix tells him, years later, that the public has begun to suspect Valant in Zak's absence, Zak immediately drafts his phony confession statement.

Granted, I'm sure that We Could Have Avoided All This if he'd thought to talk with Valant about it, but...

Anyway, that's the only reason for him taking off that actually makes sense to me; otherwise it looks like he just did it For the Lulz.
