Question, concerning the big reveal at the end of the last trial.
How could convincing the townsfolk that they couldn't see pure black make it act like invisibility? It's not like they can suddenly see through the objects to see the light rays the black stuff is blocking.
I have a message from another time...Regarding why they didn't simply use the memory suppression techniques on Espella, I was under the impression that it didn't always work 100%, as shown by the way Phoenix still had the urge to point and shout "Take that!" even when he thought he was a baker.

I'm not really sure. If I'd have to guess though, I'd probably say "Irrelevant".
Yeah I think Espella did forget, she just got hit with a lot if triggers that jogged her memory. Phoenix proved that something as simple as an OBJECTION! can break the brainwashing, so Espella was triggered by the sight of the Bell of Ruin.

The Crystal Caverns A bird's gotta sing.I think no one would be prosecuted for that very reason. The coverup AFTER the fire might be a different story. There was a coverup right?

Maybe it was the combined form of a giant sea lion and a robot fighting?
...That explanation was pretty stupid even by Layton standards.
God damn I hated that twist. There was simply no way that absolutely NO ONE ever saw the two of them apart. As for Grandwyrm... my biggest dissapointment in that case was that we never had the evidence to prove it wasn't real. Traces of fireworks, a hologram projector. It would have made the transition from, "We're in a witch trial trying to prove that my client isn't a witch" to "All this magic's stuff fake and we're searching for the answer to why it was faked." less jarring.

The Crystal Caverns A bird's gotta sing.I'd presume that it was some sort of hypnotic suggestion, but since all of the other spells had some sort of smoke and mirrors bit behind them, I would have presumed that would have been the case here.
While I do love the Professor Layton games, and the outlandish twists don't usually bother me, pairing it with Ace Attorney (which usually tries to give a explanation for any weird stuff that happened), well...some stuff slips through the cracks, and the result can be jarring.

Oh God! Natural light!Yeah the worst part is that the crossover provided the perfect oppurtunity to have the player uncover the twist for themselves through the court sections. But nope it's another "Professor Layton explains everything" situation.
