ultimately aa second trilogy bad because they didn’t understand everything needs to be about sisters

the fact that he was an Italian called Luigi Mangione (Luigi who eats a lot) and he got caught because he went to eat at a McDonald's is some Ace Attorney shit

case 3-5 godot tells phoenix his tragic backstory

[yuktuts]

Something about Klavier's breakdown that I think warrants more discussion is how young the animation makes him look, and the fact that there's an unused breakdown sprite for 17-year-old Klav that's exactly the same aside from using his 17-year-old design.

The animation itself isn't used much. Usually if something upsets Klavier enough for him to react during a trial (because he is very much like Kristoph in that way; he doesn't really strongly react much during trials), he uses some variant of this sprite. His actual breakdown sprite (the one where he holds the sides of his head and shakes his head in disbelief) is used 5 times in Turnabout Serenade and once in Turnabout Succession (keep in mind this count might be inaccurate).

It's used when Lamiroir first accuses Daryan of being LeTouse's killer

It's used when it's revealed the true time of LeTouse's murder was during The Guitar's Serenade, so Daryan doesn't have an alibi

It's used when Apollo points out how exactly the headsets used on stage during the Gavinners' concert work

It's used more lightheartedly when Lamiroir makes a comment about Klavier needing an interpreter

It's used when Lamiroir first clarifies how she heard Daryan and the gunshot that resulted in LeTouse's death

It's used when Vera mentions that she forged a diary page, incriminating Kristoph and explaining to Klavier how Kristoph knew about the forged diary page

Now, this animation makes him look younger, but the time it's used in Turnabout Succession makes him feel younger because of the dialogue it's paired with; "Nnnno! I don't... No!!!" To be clear he knows Kristoph's a piece of shit. He implies this as early as Turnabout Corner, where he refers to Apollo as "the little boy who bested my brother" (which implies, to me at least, that he knew Kristoph used underhanded tactics in court, and I think the fact that he was ever suspicious of Kristoph's knowledge of the forged diary page in the first place also makes it evident that he knew, or at least suspected, that Kristoph used underhanded methods in court. Additionally he doesn't seem all that upset about Kristoph being in prison). But the "Nnnno! I don't... No!!!" dialogue combined with Klavier's breakdown animation almost makes it feel like he's younger than he actually is. It's almost like a reminder that Kristoph is the only person Klavier has left because Capcom decided to dismantle his support system then throw him in the basement (thanks Capcom).

I'm actually curious, now that I'm really thinking about it, if his celebrity status at the age of 17 fucked up his maturity by forcing him to grow up too fast. It's not all that uncommon for that to happen when you're young and get thrusted into the spotlight. I wouldn't be surprised if Kristoph also had something to do with it (something like him being a celebrity, therefore a role model, and needing to act like an adult because of it maybe) but Klavier feels like he was forced to grow up too fast. Like he wasn't given the chance to be a kid. Makes me wonder what would happen if he truly hit a breaking point.

turnabout sisters is so insane in hindsight. you are miles edgeworth. mia fey, the first defense attorney you ever went against, has been murdered and you are prosecuting her little sister for the crime. not only are you intrinsically tied to her because of the circumstances surrounding your father’s death but you both watched a man kill himself your first time in court. you think this case could not be more emotionally charged. then you walk into court the day of the trial and who do you see on the defense? your fucking childhood best friend who you haven’t seen in 15 years.

You know, no matter how insane ace attorney gets, I still don’t think they’ll top the first game in terms of sheer “??????” factor. Moving space centers and magic bracelets and made up countries and the chess dimensions are great and silly and all that, but never, EVER has an ace attorney plot point astounded me more than “ghosts are undoubtedly real but we can’t use their testimony in court because we think one of them committed perjury”

For a long time I didn’t think this warranted a post but even my very very smart and lovely friends are telling me they did not make this observation so I’ll repeat myself. One of the things that drives me SO absolutely CRAZY about the original PW trilogy is the parallels between the endings of the first 2 games. Play in the space with me for a moment. There is a girl. She is young, yet she is unfathomably strong. For as long as she can remember, she has been strong. Refusing to break, to buckle, to even bend against the millstone of her family name. One day, something happens that shatters her world forever. Maybe it’s a death, or a loss. Maybe it’s a betrayal. At the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter what the catalyst is. What matters is that she does not crack. Perhaps she falters. Perhaps her toe catches on a bend in the road beneath her feet and she stumbles, unsure how to regain her footing. But she does not crack. She does not shatter. She refuses. Until one day she does. Until one day she looks back and realizes that she has made a mistake, one that she cannot undo. For all her trying, for all she’s only ever wanted to help people, she decides that all she has ever truly done is hurt them more. And so she runs away, like so many of her loved ones have before her. She has played this game before. She has read this story, and she knows how it ends. Except that this time is different. Because this time she is the one doing the leaving. And this time, unlike all the times before it, she knows that nobody is left to follow after her. But……someone does follow her. For the first time in her life, someone looks at her and chooses her and chases after her, after she’s spent her entire life as the one left behind. And that act of kindness, that display of love, that is the thing that truly and finally breaks through the armour to the girl inside. Now. Am I talking about Maya Fey, or am I talking about Franziska Von Karma?
