hi penny! im sorry that youve been getting so many asks telling you what order to play the aa games. i hope it doesnt discourage you from playing them at least, these games are rly fun and im rly glad to see one of my fav streamers/youtubers getting into the series! can i ask whats been some of ur fav cases so far? sorry if this has been asked already i mightve missed it fksnsk
nothing will stop me from playing the rest i promise haha. literally im locked in forever, the worst that can happen in regards to my frustration w the unruly backseating and spoiling is that i just stop posting abt it until im done with everything.
also ur good! i know for sure i have an ongoing tier list in the ace attorney tag on my blog if u want more detailed placement of everything but for now ill just say my top favorite cases are 2-4, 3-5, and 1-5

so happy u enjoy beneath the mask... it means so much to me thst the song is leblanc's theme aaaaggggqgdfwhd (redacted akc+ akiren+shuakeism screams) i think.U also said no more what ifs was one of ur fav game themes at one point.Im so Normal abt ur tastes Ohhhmygof (LOUDER REDACTED SCREAMIGN(
Really Fucking Curious for your reaction to.Our Light. And the translations of the lyrics.... i am Tje Normalest ever ab that song Yep Yes Haha ha aa a
i enjoy it so fucking much dude oh my god... it's so. ahh. it's so important that it's leblanc's theme!!!! & also it's so important to me (cityguy) that it's the broader tokyo-at-night theme... it's such a warm piece of music it's so comforting despite the fucking lyrics. something really compelling 2 me about the instrumental version being the daytime theme + this being the night theme, u know? something about truths that can only come out at home in the dark or something.
& like. no more what ifs mirrors beneath the mask so heavily!!!!!! i'm dogshit at music theory i never have the patience for it but the instrumentation w/ the mellow synth & bass + lyn's vocal delivery is so so obviously the same for the both of them. the little synth improv riffs. not even fucking getting into the lyric parallels. (where have you been? / people come and they go... i'm a shapeshifter-- what else should i be? / i never really doubted myself, but tonight's got me thinking about it all... will it unleash me? burning down the walls? / someone once said burn my dread, babe, etc etc etc) ouuhhghgh.h shuake........ akechi my fucking miserable little guy. if i think about no more what ifs for too long my brain starts to tremble & explode!!!!!
& EYES EMOJI. ive been trying very hard to avoid listening 2 any of the ost that i haven't encountered in-game so far.. that counts as a spoiler 2 me!! but im VERY excited 2 here this one whenever it comes up... im sure i will get back 2 u ab it hsfhdgdfkgkf
#i would literally LOVE 2 here more of ur ost thoughts literally any fucking time even if theyrejust incoherent screaming..#its SO GOOD. its so. aghg.h ahh!! fuck!!!! 🫠#ky tag!#p5 lb

The amount of people in this fandom that either ignore or deny Larians mistreated of Wyll will never fail to frustrate me, He has the least amount of content BY FAR, he gets ignored in updates and instead astarion gets MORE and MORE, completely unnecessary attention, pointless things changed when they could be driving SOME attention to upgrading Wyll and his story and his interactions, his bugs etc, or giving him an ounce more content. Astarions plot has the least to do with the main plot of the game but he gets the most attention and content?? literally why, Wyll is far more important in the game than he is and he's like like 4 hours less content, thats insane. I love astarion, I find him compelling and interesting, he's probably most often in my party cause I find him so useful and entertaining, hes genuinely a fascinating character to me but I would rather him have less, other than bugs fixes why does he need more content, he has the most already. I've seen people literally mod astarion to have Wyll's romance animations (it was by the AA wives too but we dont need to talk about that) I've seen people project Wyll's personality and behaviour onto astarion. weird asf the lengths ppl will go to pretend their yt fav is like that when Wyll already has the personality they want. Its no coincidence that Wyll is the only black main character and the one that gets the least love from the developers- which leads to him getting even less love from fans than he already was going to get for not being a little yt man.

Color Wheel Drawings Day 2 Yellow
Herlock Sholmes joins as the Yellow rep, if I was gonna add an Ace Attorney character, mine as whell add one from my fav AA game.
This is pobably the most complex character i've made so far, but despite the fact that both detail and color variety was lost from the OG desingn, I think it came out pretty good (Just don't look at the glasses too long...)
Se you people Tommorrow for Green
#Art#digital art#color wheel challenge#drawings#ace attorney#the great ace attorney#herlock sholmes#Sonic#idw sonic#belle the tinkerer#This is one drawing I basically needed to have the OG image at hand constaly for reference#The fact that the coat has all of this lines both of decoration and of folds keep messing with me while drawing#Definetley became easier after the basic coloring section of my process as It was easier to see how everithing looked intead#of just a mess of black lineart#Also you don't realice how many diferent shades of the same color he has on the coat until you have to zoom in to try to pick just one#mi arte

7, 8, 12, 19 (It took me a minute to figure out what all these stood for, so here's what Im assuming: BVB = Black Veil Brides, AA = Asking Alexandria, BMTH = Bring Me The Horizon), 21, 47
hi!! thanks so much for the ask!
Okay here we go! (from this ask game)
7. How many band posters do you have?
9, plus a heap of a4 posters that I printed myself :P
8. Have you watched Invader Zim? If so, who’s your favorite character?
Yes! Haven't finished it yet though, so far my favourite is Dib
12. Dear Maria or Check Yes Juliet?
I've got your pictureee, I'm coming with youuuu, dear mariaaaa count me innnnn
19. Do you listen to BVB, AA, or BMTH?
YES. I listen to all of those bad boys, but my fav is asking alexandria (and yes, you assumed correctly <3)
21. Do you watch Anime?
Yup.

Never got into pokemon, so don't have one :3

for the aa ask game: 7, 15, 20 (😉), 36, 42, 43, 57, 67, 78, 98 ❤️
this is a lot so you dont have to answer all of them but i thought the questions were really fun hehe
hi hehe ty for all the questions dora!!
7. Favourite Design?
there's a lot of designs i like so idk if i have a fav, but i'm just gonna go ahead and say beanix. dude is comfy and chillin' and i respect that
15. Random headcanon you can share?
i have,,, so many,,, but one of my favs is that one of trucy's fav movies is The Parent Trap, but she's never seen it all the way through. she always falls asleep partway through, and has gotten as far as the return from the camping trip but has never seen past that somewhat related is that trucy and phoenix do in fact know annie and hallie's handshake/dance from the movie and can do it perfectly
20. Did you ever write fanfiction for Ace Attorney? If so, which one is your best piece
i have! i've written a few fics (and an essay) for ace attorney, and more wips trapped in my gdocs. i think my best piece is my nightmare fic from nrmt week earlier this year! it was my first AA fic and i'm still very proud of it
36. Prettiest eyes?
this is probably the expected answer from me but i'm gonna say phoenix. there's just so many different ways ppl portray his eyes (brown, blue, dark, light, variations of heterochromia) and i think that's neat!!
42. Unpopular opinion?
idk how unpopular this is but i think bratfeen is cute in theory but would be an absolute train wreck in practice. both of them are at very unstable points in their lives, with feenie being incredibly emotional and reactive (as we saw in 3-1) and bratworth being so under mvk's thumb. it would very much be "unstoppable force meets unmovable object" in a way that would just end in disaster and heartbreak
43. Favourite OST?
there are so many good ones but i'm going with my first response which is lang's theme, Speak up, Pup. it's so good i love it
57. Which character would you never want to meet in real life?
*timmy turner's dad's voice* Matt Engarde i love him as a villain but he's such a bitch that i would have to physically restrain myself from punching him and i don't think i'd be strong enough to
67. A character everyone else hates but you like even though you understand the hate that they get?
i don't think i have one? most of the characters i like are generally well liked from what i've seen. i think there are some characters that are generally well liked that i don't even tho i see their appeal
78. Who or what got you into AA?
a lot of my mutuals on twt and ppl i was in a server with were really into it, and i thought it looked like something i'd be interested in, so i downloaded the trilogy onto my phone and the rest is history
98. Which character do you trust the least to pick out a movie for a movie’s night?
kristoph. i feel like he'd have bad taste in movies and also be super pretentious about it in an annoying film bro way. i don't think i'd enjoy whatever movie he picked or the experience of watching it with him

its 🤭 anon again. ty for listening to my rambles IVE MISSED YOUUU, now that ive found you again imma be haunting you too. BOO 👻
(ty for answering my questions haha. ive gotten sucked into the jujutsu kaisen whirlpool and have my heart torn in half by gege (the author). if you like anime with a ton of super greatly animated action and stupid delays on manga chapters, i def recommend. i saw online someone saying that it's like the fight scene in demon slayer episode 19, stretched out for the entire show. im also planning on watching helluva boss soon, what should i expect?)
almost to 2k followers!! congrats !! maybe you could do an ask game, like having your fave lyrics from songs and those could be prompts, and you/reader can apply them to different charas? or like a voice reveal ? anyways congrats, you've come so far!
damn i yap a lot mb 😭
AA I MISSED U TOO!!!! i havent heard from a handful of my anons in a hot minute im glad ur back! pls feel free to drop into my inbox anytime ajsjjs-
ive def heard good things ab jjk! i'll probably watch it eventually but i am SO bad at starting new shows it's actually embarrassing 😭 i have seen parts of it and it seems really cool. helluva boss is pretty good i def like it, theres a lot thats very vulgar and satirical and it's a pretty fun show. i love the artstyle as well, id definitely recommend it if u don't mind sexual references and also a bit of gore.
OOO OMG! i am actually so excited that im close to 2k, i never thought id get here and im actually so happy😭 the thought that there are 2000 people around the world willingly following me is genuinely crazy-
also pls don't apologize i love hearing u yap ur one of my fav people to have in my inbox plsss yap to me more often🙏🙏🙏

finished ace attorney!!! thoughts under a read more because of spoilers and it got kinda long. only opinion i'll state here is that i enjoyed it a lot and i would recommend it to anyone slightly curious about it ❤
ended the trilogy with mia and gumshoe as my favs. mia was too cool to live and gumshoe is pookie no other explanations are needed for either of them
the music was so good!!!! i think the trial music for the first game was the best one by far, but some of the songs related to specific cases were incredible (shoutout to aa1 case 4, aa2 case 2 and aa3 case 1)
my favorite case absolutely was the fourth one in aa2, i didn't know a single thing about it. from the maya kidnapping, the involvement of a serial killer, phoenix losing his very first trial, being able to get a bad ending and obviously the matt engarde plot twist. i did genuinely think adrien was the culprit
related to the matt thing it was the one twist i was not expecting at all nor had spoiled, i mean at one point godot looked like the only culprit possible (and accidentally had it spoiled to myself. rip) and manfred von karma just looks guilty as hell. also his theme song slayed i was mad they reused it in aa3 for the trials and other moments. he did not summon a glass of brandy out of nowhere while in jail for you to do this to him!!!!
i still stand by what i said in an earlier post, the cases with a fey right in the middle of them were definitely the best ones. also i really liked how the third game was practically all about the clan, even the prosecutor introduced in it. it's good that miles got his own spinoff series because we cannot forget that the two protagonists in the aa trilogy are phoenix and maya (and by extension the feys) !!!! you think at first mia will be the deuteragonist but then it turns out it's actually her sister!!!! this is their world!!!! all miles got was one case and even the dl-6 incident was about maya and mia's mother!!!!
not a fan at all of the franziska whip thing. it got old really fast as well. i can excuse murder but i didn't find the whole hitting people with it thing funny or entertaining.....it bothered me to the point i couldn't stand her tbh. remake the entire trilogy without her hitting people with a whip and i'll stan
already said a negative thing above so i'll say another one now. the gumshoe shit salary thing got old extremely fast like by the third game it felt like he got reduced to only saying he can't pay the bills and how all he eats are instant noodles. no idea what happens in the investigations games but i hope miles gives him a huge raise or i will keep hoping gumshoe petrol bombs him!!!!
kinda related to the gumshoe thing since they are both comic relief characters but larry also got turned lowkey into a creep that both phoenix and edgeworth couldn't stand while in the first game phoenix literally describes him as a "likeable guy who has been my friend since grade school" and thinks of him as a "good guy at heart" (started the first trial for these two quotes alone) miles also never describes him as a bad person or even a loser, he's a bit too silly alright but that's it. justice for larry!!!!! the writers don't know shit!!!!!
a while ago i said mia was too hot to live (i stand by it) but now i can add to this that diego was also too hot to live (he technically didn't die but you know what i mean) had they both lived and continued dating they would have outslayed outserved outcunted every single attorney in whatever country the games takes place in i mean murder suspicions aside no wonder dahlia wanted them both dead
speaking of dahlia i mean yes i wanted mia to beat her ass in both of her trials but before finishing the final trial in the trilogy i replayed aa3 case1 and like. ok yeah dahlia was highkey a girlboss like come on she staged her death at 14, murdered her half sister, (almost) murdered a lawyer in the courtroom and quickly disposed of the poison, attempted to kill the PROTAGONIST, killed her ex, and as a literal ghost she tried killing maya???? shelly de killer wishes i'm not sorry
speaking of mr. diego armando/godot i do wish it had been foreshadowed even slightly in the previous games, i mean there is a huge chance they had not planned it that early on in the series but still you know. planting seeds here and there. maybe in grossberg's office or even in fey & co. wasn't grossberg involved in another case in aa2? was that the final case? i forgor but maybe show something in his office by then? considering from the morgan scene post case 2 they had already planned stuff for later idfk. the fact that maya knew of him but was never mentioned by her even in the third game feels weird
oldbag was the best witness character by far. missed opportunity to have her interact with larry on scren so they could both give edgeworth an aneurysm. wuved will powers too ❤ can't be a coincidence the two slayest mfs came from the same case (even though i consider it the weakest one in aa1)
i am acros-girl till the end. free my man (from jail and being in the floppest case)!!!!
aa1 case 5 despite the new features and fitting quite well despite having been added later wasn't that hot tbh. it felt too long and i couldn't really connect with ema and er. her sister i forgor her name. the damon gant reveal was obvious from the moment he popped up too. COME ON even his leitmotif was evil as hell. on the other hand it also was the case that made me realise how much i missed maya LMAO sorry ema but you will never be her. starr and jake slayed though
aa1 fucked severely, aa2 was kind of boring honestly i can only say i enjoyed the second and fourth cases. aa3 was really good, but even though i cried and everything i didn't think its final case was as good as the fourth cases in the previous two games. it started very well but it kinda lost me with the pendulum honestly. i can accept channeling the dead but i have my limits!!! i also felt that the final segment with maya and godot could have been done better, a lot of time got spent on the stupid ass pendulum, not enough time spent in the emotional beats
this is a thought i had yesterday but it made me laugh that both desiree delite and matt engarde are brunettes who wear red clothes and like riding motorcycles. also come on one is rich and the other likes spending money??? you would think desiree is actually a matt who escaped jail and started hrt so shelly de killer wouldn't find her #girlboss #dahliawishes
i thought the whole trilogy being in 2d fit the game really well, honestly i'm kind of worried re: apollo trilogy and tgaa because i know some of it is in 3d but somehow i don't think it fits the style? also this is stupid maybe but i like how the only people that are voiced are the attorneys saying "objection" or "take that" or "hold it" in court, idk if they are voiced in the other games or not but i'd fear that. giving them enough time to speak and hear their accents would ruin the experience for me SJFLSDJKFJSDKL
i liked that the final scene of the game was with pearl and maya, in case you haven't realized it yet this is the phoenix and feys trilogy!!!
ok i was finishing this and i realized i had not talked about the gay lawyers at all. i see it and everything but also i think phoenix could do better. all in all it was gay but nothing that drove me insane playing the games (phoenix becoming a lawyer "to save him" was homosexual activity through and through though. same with the "unnecessary feelings" line
final thoughts: the feys would survive succession but not a single roy would survive ace attorney. also i hope aa7 is about ami fey's spirit getting revenge for the amount of times her urn got broken
#if you read till the end i salute you this shit is long enough on desktop i cant imagine how it is on mobile#also i got all the steam achievements!!! hooray!!!#will i play the apollo games tgaa and investigations? only time will tell#(also steam discounts and if i find them online for free laugh out loud)

I'm sorry the unpopular opinions questions are too good so I'm just going to say ace attorney
Oh god
❤: Which character do you think is the most egregiously mischaracterized by the fandom?
Franziska von Karma, easy answer, I don't really hate Franmaya or anything but so many people do not write her properly in that dynamic
🧡: What is a popular (serious) theory you disagree with?
I don't know a ton of AA theories tbhhhh (I don't browse the fandom a lot)
💛: What is a popular ship you just can't get behind, and why?
Franmaya, again, but it's mostly just cause of how it's usually written. (In some cases I've seen it handled well)
💚: What does everyone else get wrong about your favorite character?
I have nothing to say in regards to Edgeworth so second fav-- Apollo would not be the one to fall in love first are you kidding me absolutely not that boy is not the one pining he's far too focused on some other bullshit.
💙: Which character is not as hot as everyone else seems to think?
Look. Edgeworth is not that sexy. He's a great person and I love him dearly but he is NOT that attractive his uncle (?) is hotter I'm sorry.
💜: Which character is way hotter than everyone else seems to think?
Plum Kitake is the hottest character in the entire series bar none that woman is incredible oh my god.
🤍: Which character is not as morally bad as everyone else seems to think?
Thinking like Larry Butz mainly? Like yeah he does some stupid shit and also flirted with Maya that one time but he's?? generally a good guy? Doing his best.
🖤: Which character is not as morally good as everyone else seems to think?
Phoenix alskjdfalskdjf my man was manipulating the HELL out of Apollo in his game and also still hasn't told Apollo he and Trucy are half siblings like, this guy talks about how important the truth is and is sitting here withholding information like a mother fucker
💖: What is your biggest unpopular opinion about the series?
Turnabout Big Top is not as bad as everyone says it is.
💔: If you had to remove one major character from the series, who would you choose?
Phoenix. Deadass let some of the other defense attorneys have some character development. I'm tired.
💕: What is an unpopular ship that you like?
Hm ! I don't have a ton of AA ships but I did think about Trucy and Vera one day being a thing and it was v cute in my mind (after Vera takes some time to recover and branch out obvs)
📖: If you had to remove one book from the series, which would you choose?
I haven't heard good things about AA6
🏳️🌈: Which character who is commonly headcanoned as queer doesn't seem queer to you?
See this is tough because we all know every character in AA is queer except Straight Larry, but I will say Edgeworth is not as gay as people like to say asldjfk
💀: If you had to choose one major character to die, who would you choose?
Ahhh of a major character... ngl it would be funny if phoenix died but then just possesses maya and keeps on doing lawyer stuff, wild plotline

Hi,
I'm asking you this 'cause you are one of my fav writers on this app and I'm too embarrassed to come off anon.
I used to be confident in my writing a year ago. The words used to flow into my head freely as I write and not even once I felt like it was a chore to me. I didn't doubt or fuss over stuff I write until one day I got criticized very badly. I received a huge feedback on how much my writing sucked (literally a page).
Now, every time I sit to write stuff i love, i fall into the pit hole of self doubts and start to loathe the style of my writing.
I know it sounds pathetic that one bad criticism has changed my mindset. And, writing stuff is my only outlet....
Today, I run a small blog on this app and so far the response for the stuff i write is so positive yet I can't shake away this insecurity and it is starting to take a toll on me.
How do I overcome this? I would appreciate any tips on getting better at writing and finding a unique writing style. Please ignore this ask if it makes you uncomfy tho. Again, I'm so sorry if I troubled you.
hello anon!!
aa… i'm really sorry to hear that this happened to you, unsolicited criticism can already be discouraging, but that sounds infinitely worse ?? i don't think you sound pathetic, it's pretty natural for people to remember negative experiences over positive ones. it just sticks in the brain longer. i'm a pretty sensitive person myself so i can see where you're coming from. i think one of the things that's helped me a lot is basically going 'so what lol' whenever i'm confronted with stuff like that. we're writing self-indulgent stories for fun (and free!), it doesn't need to be this generation's war and peace. it's okay for your work to be 'messy'. writing is like any other hobby, what matters more is enjoying the creating process rather than arriving at a super polished piece that's-100%-without-flaw-god-tier-ready-to-be-accepted-in-the-canon-of-the-bible level stuff. there's absolutely nothing wrong with wanting what you work on to be good, i absolutely strive for that myself, but when it feels more like a chore and i'm agonizing over it, i take a step back.
i didn't feel right giving you a watchmojo top ten tips to improve your writing reply in response to this. i was too busy going >:( at the thought of an absolute troglodyte thinking their silly one page of feedback that no one asked for was warranted. like. the world is on fire. we're seeing a surge in cash grabs that have absolutely zero soul behind them. creativity is constantly shoved to the side for a quick buck (hbo max flipping off their animators, ZA/UM booting the minds behind disco elysium who spent literal decades working on the game, the list could go on forever). create what you want and what you love, if someone tries to come @ you with rude feedback, that's cringe. 'you forgot to collect the homework' type energy. zero bitches. lame. zzzzzz.
all this to say . i want to encourage you to not feel burdened that you need to improve your writing PRONTO, because if that's hovering over you, it'll sap away your joy while writing. the thought alone makes me sad. there is no person on the planet who has experienced the exact set of circumstances that you have, meaning you have something to contribute that's entirely unique to you. you can describe things in ways people could never think to because they aren't you, you can infuse your distinct personality into your work, create something from nothing. you already have your own unique writing style; everyone does.
i'm sorry if this isn't coherent or useful, i just ended up getting heated HJTKEMG please keep writing anon!!! but remember that it's okay to take breaks when the negatives outweighs the positives during the writing experience. in fact, it's perfectly normal across the board for any hobby. i'm wishing you the best of luck.

What I like about the game is the actual mysteries themselves, of course not so much the circumstances.
I also like that they’re just high schoolers and all the evidence we have are basic and make sense and we don’t have Forensic Science and Finger Prints. It just makes the mysteries feel more solvable, kind of like why I think I like GAA more than the recent AA games, the simplicity of the cases. (Aside from other things too of course but that’s another story)
What I don’t really like is how they feel the need to have Soooo Manyyyy Modessss? Like it really is just a visual novel but they’re like No We Have To Be Different. You need to Shoot the Contradiction and of course it works metaphorically but as gameplay it feels really… like they were making gameplay to make gameplay. Especially Bullet Time Battles or whatever.
I can’t tell if it’s on purpose or not but so far they’ve killed all my favs 😂😂 I still have a few more favored characters but I feel like if I get close to them they are going to die faster. But I also feel like I have to get closer to them before they die. 🤣🤣🤣
Anyway, me at the end of chapter 2 🥲

if you don’t wanna answer this it’s all good, but what’s your fav aa game and why? i love seeing other people’s pov on the games. it’s fun, ya know?
This is perfectly fine to ask haha! My favourite aa game is aai2. It’s partially because Miles is my favourite character, and seeing a game that focused so much on his story and developing his character was really nice. I love character-driven stories and, unlike the first investigations game, this really felt like something deeply personal to Miles, where substituting him with someone else like Phoenix wouldn’t be as good.
It also has a strong theme throughout of bonds between people, with a particular focus on parent-child relationships, and I am such a sucker for non-romantic relationships getting more attention. There aren’t any “filler” cases in the game, they’re all tied in to the major plot, and it all builds towards this central theme of the influence parents or parental figures can have on the lives of children. I don’t think any of the other AA games have as obvious of a theme throughout them. I wrote a long rambling post on everything I love about it (be wary of spoilers for the whole game!) here.
I cared so much about the characters and their stories. I loved the focus on bonds between people and how that shapes their lives. I loved the mastermind for being a perfect embodiment of the theme and overall being a fascinating character, instead of some of the more one-dimensional villains AA tends to have. (Those can be fun, of course, but the variety is nice!) The cast also has many of my favourite characters in it!
It’s not a flawless game, it has some pacing and logic issues (the red mole... the entire tangent they make you do to prove Moozilla isn’t real... the imprisoned turnabout feels so long...) but it’s the one I’m the most emotionally invested in throughout. And I mean, pacing and logic errors aren’t anything new for AA. Plus AA games tend to have one, maybe two cases I’ll be actually interested in throughout a game, with some of the games having a bunch of other cases I don’t care for (Even T&T, generally considered one of the best, has Recipe for Turnabout...) aai2′s case quality tends to be higher overall, I think, compared to other games. Cases 3 4 and 5 just hit me back to back to back with feelings, and even if case 1 and 2 weren’t quite as interesting, they’re still relevant to the story and don’t have major terrible aspects.
I’ve been through this game so many times, watching playthroughs, playing it myself, playing it with my friend, watching other friends stream it... and every time there are these scenes that just hit me so hard even when I know they’re coming. I love it more every time. It’s one of the few games I have cried over in multiple locations. It’s absolutely stellar and I am so sad that it’s not widely accessible to everyone to play, since I do think it’s one of the series’ high points, and by far the best of the Yamazaki games. It’ll soon be the only Ace Attorney game that doesn’t have an official English translation, which is really unfortunate, since I think it’s one of Debeste (haha pun.)

So overall, how did you like AAI? I enjoyed it a lot and took my time with it, though I do admit the last case dragged a bit XD
I loved it! I think the cases tied into one another really well, and the pacing was good for the most part.
The last case just went on forever tho! And I kept forgetting important things? I admit I used a walk through for most of it.
But I do love that we got so many good characters introduced and returning. I loved more time for Franziska and her ambitions. I loved Kay! She's one of my fav characters in all of aa by far. Badd was awesome. I still don't totally like Lang. Yew was such a great villain. I loved her.
I just kinda wished there was a little more growth from Edgeworth. I think it was great how far he came in the trilogy, and I was expecting a little more character development from him--but also I get it's a spin off game so it's understandable they wouldn't make giant leaps with a character.
