legit SO impressed and surprised how tgaa is handling thing with regards to [redacted] like?!?!?
(under a keep reading to try to avoid posting spoilers too hard lol)
LIKE going into these games we knew kazuma 'dies' but is 'resurrected' in the last half of the story but with the way ace attorney usually is or hell even how dense they make ryuu with some of the evidence/plot points I was expecting kazuma's whole revival to go largely unnoticed by ryuu and susato until some big reveal where kazuma removes his mask and cloak and they're like WHOA HOW CAN THIS BE?!!?!? YOU WERE DEAD!!!!!
and theyre not???? like BOTH susato and ryunosuke immediately clock him as kazuma despite the cloak and mask?? SUSATO LITERALLY YELLING 'KAZUMA-SAMA' AT HIM IN BROAD DAYLIGHT IN FRONT OF VAN ZIEKS?!?
it's like a really pleasant surprise and twist to something I thought I had a good handle on how the story was gonna go
maybe it really shocked me cause of how godot/diego was handled in the original series where it was kind of a last minute reveal even though us as an audience kind of already know so it was like 'ah another masked dead loved one coming back from the dead that no one's going to piece together until our hand is forced'
good ol' ace attorney spoilers alway panning out a little differently than I expect - god bless this series
i'm really excited now to see how this pans out especially with sholmes being in on it in someway and definitely making me think of some juicy angst/hurt ryulock where ryuu has confided in sholmes all about the grief of losing his first love and then ryuu finding out later that sholmes knew all along that kazuma wasn't really dead.....and the trust issues that come with that oh man, oh man, oh man. I can't wait!!!!!

Every day I am more and more confused about why most people think narumitsu is the gayest thing in ace attorney

Replaying Tgaa, there really are a whole bunch of moment where I get the impression that van zieks is trying to help out.
Not in like. A nice way. He's being a real dick about it. But in 1-3 and now in 1-4 I really get the impression that he figures out the truth before us, and then try to. Passive-agressively nudge us towards it as well as he can while still opposing us diligently.
That's a GOOD ASS angle for a prosecutor. This man HATES US, but he cares about the truth more than he cares about how much he wish we weren't here lmao.

One of the things I really value about Ace Attorney is...
It's a story that's not meant exclusively for children, that's got the whimsy and earnestness of a really good middle grade novel. Chameleon Moon, Outer Wilds, and The House In The Cerulean Sea are some of the rare other things that scratch that itch for me.
Stories like that are SO FUCKING RARE because they're hard to make work- done badly they can feel corny or insincere. You have to believe in your story with your whole goddamn chest if you're telling a story like that.
And Ace Attorney **does**, more often than not.

I think it'd be remiss if I do not highlight the fact that, being both an ACD canon and Granada adaptation enjoyer, and also a member of one of the British Empire's ex-colonies, that I'd like to be in a comfortable enough headspace to share a perspective on this text site on how a Straits Settlement person views the works.
There's enough references to the Crown Colonies to make it interesting for me, so I just need to sit down and type it out, I guess? Just off the top of my head:
- The Penang lawyer cane reference
- The Haj pilgrims boat that departed from Singapore (presumably from Kampong Bugis)
- Lascars and Malays being explicitly referenced as part of certain subset and communities
- References to opium, which the Straits Settlements were one of the largest port of call for the Empire's supply
- Anything Sumatra region, given proximity
There's also a lot to be said about Granada's The Last Vampyre episode, which is such a profound piece of work about the othering of 'different' people by society, as well as the criticism and calling out of the quintissential brand of British racism that remained in ex-Straits Settlements' mentality today and how the general British public still practices it, that more expert people that is Not Me should talk about it.
But then again, how many would be able to reflect on this from a Malay peninsular residents' perspective?

Just finished DGS1-3. There's a lot of things I really like about dgs so far but also a lot of things that I feel like were massive missteps in the dev process. Overall I am definitely enjoying my time though, so far.
I feel like this case is when things started to get really interesting (naturally the first two being mostly used for set up). The jury mechanic, the clearly probably definitely guilty defendant, all the loose ends, gina "will return to be important later" lestrade, barok "racist vampire" van zieks, the implication that he set the fucking coach on fire with mcgilded locked inside... Definitely feels like a natural and interesting evolution of the og trilogy.
Current predictions: next chapter will prominently feature Sholmes and the little inventor girl, and the final chapter will feature the return of Kazuma "Faked my death maybe" Asougi (maybe).
#overall i think dgs improves a lot on the og trilogy but also creates problems that weren't really part of the series before#tgaa#ace attorney#tgaa spoilers#dgs spoilers#no spoilers past this point please#the adventure of the runaway room#dgs liveblog

you would think only 15 people live in London based on the jury selection for each trial LMFAO
#tgaa#ace attorney#tgaac#the great ace attorney chronicles#liveblogging my progress#I’m now on the second game!#but man can you imagine doing jury duty for four trials in like three months#can you imagine doing jury duty two days in a row for the same person but they’re separate cases LMFAO#maybe there’s shenanigans going behind the scenes tho the game seems to be implying that#either way tho I wouldn’t want to be a part of this 15 person pool or whatever LOL I have work smh

I wonder if van zieks knows that we aren't a lawyer. Or even a law student. He's racist so it's fully possible he thinks Japanese law schools are so bad oneof their student wouldn't know what tampering with the crime scene is
