thinking about them

[eleccy]

phoenix and edgeworth are the only “normal” characters in ace attorney and i use that definition extremely loosely. this isn’t a lawyer game this is a ghost hunter game. this is some scooby doo shit. everybody phoenix meets is a fucking horror game character. maya and pearls can channel the dead, morgan fey is shit-your-pants terrifying, mia, misty, iris, dahlia, all of them have some creepy shit or other going on, i won’t even get started on dahlia’s insane spirit needing to be exorcised, and after surviving all that, phoenix gets a daughter with esp and he has to contend with the gramaryes who have supernatural powers and are mysterious as fuck, and a kid whose eyes glow red when he perceives you. top that off with a visit from the devil himself, kristoph with the fuckin skull on his hand and the mystical levitation powers we don’t know what they are, THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY GHOSTS AND DEMONS AND SHIT IN ACE ATTORNEY AND TBH I LOVE IT. and phoenix’s only defense is a magical green rock he holds it up against them all like a cross and screams “THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU”

Part 9

Miscellaneous ponies :)

Not extremely happy with how Clay’s came out, but it works.

Rayfa is half Kirin and half dragon like her brother (Kirin on moms side, dragon on dads)

I love Dahlia’s design, and it went virtually unchanged between the 2022 designs and now. She’s a kelpie.

Kristoph is just a plain-ass unicorn, but I still love his design.

TGAA ponies next :)

How Turnabout Revolution parallels Rise from the Ashes

so this one has been on my to write list for a while; I think the intended parallels the writers put in on purpose were to Farewell, my Turnabout and Bridge to the Turnabout.

it's pretty obvious that Amara and Ga'ran parallel Misty and Morgan -- absentee mom closer than expected, abusive parent that took over in the interim.

but I think it's more interesting to look at the parallels between the Sahdmadhi siblings and the Skye sisters, a parallel that I can't help but notice because I don't really know if it's intentional or not? they brought back Ema, but that could be for fanservice reasons too.

Lana Skye and Nahyuta Sahdmadhi were both prosecutors manipulated by a superior to become more ruthless and closed off to the world. They both wanted to protect their younger sisters -- Lana by following Chief Gant so that Ema wouldn't be implicated in the SL-9 incident with evidence she believed to be legitimate, and Nahyuta by taking on his family name and shielding Rayfa from bearing the sins of the father.

Lana and Nahyuta both did things wrong -- they both sent countless people to their graves. Lana covered up evidence, while Nahyuta believed that in his religion's eyes he was a sinner that could only be redeemed through prosecuting as many criminals as possible.

Ema and Rayfa are both key to the cases -- Ema's testimony about SL-9 forces the reveal of the evidence Damon Gant forged as blackmail for Lana, while Rayfa's Divination Séances provided invaluable insights for both the deaths of Inga and Dhurke and the assassination attempt/palace fire.

The sibling bonds pushed Lana and Nahyuta to do terrible things in their careers. But they also pushed Ema and Rayfa to pull their respective siblings away from the darkness and into the light of the truth.

In the end, the defense exposes the powerful individual and exonerates the defendant. Lana smiles for the first time, and Nahyuta shows his dragon spirit after all this time.

They are not the people they once were, but they are both able to move forward without the baggage of the past.

I also find it very funny that after I finished soj my thoughts on duel destinies immediately shifted to 'perhaps I was too harsh'

Dear Barbed Head,

......................

I suppose I can allow it if it is the only way she can survive.  I have never been in one of those prisons and thus was unaware of their squalid conditions.  Perhaps I will inform mother and father of this as well.

I refuse to eat anything prepared by you aside from cake, however.  I would sooner eat a stone than risk being placed under a curse by Montezuma.

jesus maya defendant and assistant and a steel samurai reference?? this case has some blatant fanservice 🙄

[beasblues]

spirit of justice is truly.... something else..... I'm almost finished w it now ^^

I did a little redesign of nahyuta and rayfa after doing some research to try and make khura'in a bit more... well... like an actual lived in place that could exist?? instead of the weird fantasyland amusement park vibes that the in-game one gives me :'D regardless of the faults in this game I am having fun though, you can always count on ace attorney games being a fun time ^^
