(this post is currently a work in progress and will be updated as i better solidify the blog!)
Since the events of AA4 start in April 2026, this blog has been created to track when events from the game happen in real time & remind of when in-game events occur, so that fans, artists, and anybody can prepare and celebrate!!!
(note: this is a side blog and is linked to the main blog for the person who runs this, @invertedspoon . this means this blog does not have all functions of a normal blog and there may be some weird unknown issues that arise!)
QUESTIONS, ANSWERS, & INFO UNDER CUT!
What timezone will the posts be in?
I will be posting in the PST/PDT timezone, as the English version of the series takes place in L.A., California, USA. All times that are mentioned will have the text PST next to it. (for example, i would say 10:00AM PST)
What events are tracked?
I will be tracking the start (and end, if applicable) of major events, such as the starts of cases, trials, and times of murders.
I am using all information from the fandom wiki, pulling dates/times & cross-referencing them with the transcript provided.
If other events are wanting to be tracked, such as scenes & lines important to the fandom, you are welcome to submit a post to my blog or add a reblog under the previous event!
What kinds of reminders will be set?
There will be a reminder for the event 1 week before, 24 hours before, 3 hours before, and when the event starts. I may send out a reblog prior to the event ending, announcing the end of the event if there is a specified time.
If a event does not have a specified time, it will "start" at 12:00 AM PST.
(note: i am manually scheduling all these posts, and i may miss the 3 hour reminders. sorry, human error!)
How will tagging work?
All reminders will be tagged #reminders. Weekly & hourly reminders will be tagged #week, #24hrs, and #3hrs, respectively. Event posts will be tagged #event, #aa4, #aa4 timeline, #aa4 spoilers, and #ace attorney. They will also be tagged with their chapter title & relevant characters. For example, if it was Apollo's debut, it would be tagged #turnabout trump, #apollo justice.
Any non-AA posts, such as updates from my end, will be tagged #non event.
New tag: #non event event. used for memes i reblog that are event-related but not a "non event"
(Suggestions to the tagging system are very much welcomed! This makes the most sense to me, but may not to the general population!)
How can I be reminded?
Check the blog regularly!
more to be added later!!! i welcome any and all suggestions to run this!
RIGHT NOW, on April 20th, 2026 at 4:28pm PST, Apollo Justice's debut trail officially ends with a win! He successfully defended Phoenix Wright & convicted his mentor, Kristoph Gavin, of the murder of "Shadi Smith".
