not a big fan of people calling asa an idiot for getting manipulated by yoru... she's in an extremely precarious state, and the person who's been next to her (literally inside her actually) for months is obviously going to have the edge when it comes to tricking her. and yoru does care for asa in her own way; but like... yoru's worldview, wants and needs r so incredibly foreign to asa that neither of them can understand each other. yoru parrots, "you want to save denji don't you?" but she can't quite get why asa cares for denji. yoru's closest equivalent to what denji is to asa are her children, who she ends up weaponising to fight pochita.

meanwhile, asa has never really seen yoru at her worst like this before. there's a part of her that's probably remembering yoru being vulnerable with her on her bed or in the bathtub together.. she's not capable of compartmentalising these different facets of yoru. that's not to mention how asa has literally given up any chance she has at a future to pursue hers and yoru's goals... ofc she's going to keep hoping until the last moment that yoru has her back! literally what else does she have?

I love the difficulty curve in the Phoenix Wright series so much.

The first mission is all:

"I didn't know it was the victim's birthday!" "If you didn't know it was her birthday, why did you have a cake and candles in your bag?" "They were for my birthday!" "*Gasp!* Strapping Lawyer Man! Check the court record!" " Thank you for your support, Charming Teenage Girl! You're so right! You have underestimated me, Evil Murderer Witness! Your birthday was in March and it is July!" "Nooo! My plan to frame Hapless Passerby is ruined by your remarkable powers of observation!" "Wow! Strapping Lawyer Man! You're so clever how did you work that out?"

Through to

"I dunno what to tell you, Charming Teenage Girl, the only contradiction I can find is that this image is moved one pixel to the left." "I mean, I think we should point it out anyway, Strapping Lawyer Man." "Objection! This image is ONE PIXEL TO THE LEFT!" "Hahaha! Strapping Lawyer Man! You have walked into my TRAP don't you know that proves my theory more than yours? It's such a shame you can't get wacky hijinks approved in court to disprove me." "...Y'know what, Strangely Kinky Prosecutor? I'm gonna get wacky hijinks approved in court."

martin/elias is an absolutely hilarious ship if you ignore the angst potential because like. they would outwardly look like a genuinely loving relationship but they're playing 4d chess mentally the whole time. martin's doing his whole innocent and caring sweetheart act to manipulate jonah. jonah's doing his whole boring and non-threatening manager act to manipulate martin. it's like a fake dating trope but both of them think they're fooling the other into thinking it's real

Dick: If you have to resort to violence it means you've already failed. Damian: *furiously* Grayson, sometimes violence is necessary— Dick: Of course. I meant it means you've failed at manipulation. Damian:... Dick: *wags finger* Alfred and I raised you better than that.

Do you ever think about how Sebastian probably took solace in being the top of his class. In the hard evidence that he was smart and competent no matter how much his father belittled him. Do you think about how much it must have reassured him, to know his father was wrong, or just teasing, right, because they both know that Sebastian is smart, just look at his grades! Look at the hard proof that he’s more than what his father says he is!

Only for it all to come crumbling down. Just one last fuck you to completely shatter a seventeen year olds sense of self.

Sebastian Debeste I know you have trust issues.

Tobias had thought the Ellimist would return him to normal. Instead he merely gave Tobias back his morphing powers. But that had not been a lie or trick. Not really. He'd promised to give Tobias what he wanted. He had. It was Rachel who couldn't accept that Tobias had chosen, and still chose, to remain a hawk. - Jake, #26: The Attack

how on earth was the trans allegory not intentional when we get lines like this

Jason Todd's the aroace guy who doesn't realize he's aroace but is also not oblivious to how big a driving force sexual attraction is for other people. He's the type to dislike and judge men for thinking with their dicks so much and kind of think himself better than them because of the fact that he doesn't

It's crazy that people still uphold show!Sansa as a well-written character and pretend that liking her is the pinnacle of feminism when it would be infinitely more impactful to acknowledge her terrible and misogynistic writing. This is the same character who, while written by two men, was thankful for the abuse she suffered because it allowed her to grow. The same character who we had to be told was smart because the writers were too lazy to develop or show her intelligence. The same character who had to rely heavily on the men surrounding her and ended up accomplishing nothing on her own merit ( and no, thinking that she deserved to be Queen doesn't mean that she earned it). She is not well-written, she is not complex, and she is not a feminist character. Which is fine! If you enjoy her then good on you, but please stop pretending that she's something she isn't just because you feel the need to justify liking her character
