phoenix wright: ace attorney
it's so funny how whenever phoenix says something that doesn't make sense and the prosecution says hey that doesn't make sense he goes MEAN TO MEEEEE 🥺🥺😖😖😫
couldn’t resist adding some of my own
also, bonus edgeworth:
ive been playing apollo justice
I don't know about you, but I find it very touching that Charley has stayed with us for the entire series. He has seen several generations of lawyers and all their ups and downs. And he has remained the office's good luck charm, even when they forgot to water him.
No joke, the best character in the entire series.
absolutely fucking tragic that we never get to see kristoph and edgeworth being catty bitches to each other
oh how the tables have turnedabout
Now I haven’t played Apollo Justice but from what I gather Apollo is very iconic because an international celebrity rockstar basically threw himself at his feet like “I am head over heels for you, wanna date????” and Apollo (rightfully) went “This is a murder trial????”
Apollo totally thinks Phoenix is trans like him (because let's be real Phoenix is an extremely transgender name) and is genuinely surprised to find that the reason there is a trans flag in his office is because he is a very supportive cis guy that just happens to have a weird fucking name. They are both bisexual though.
really excited for the apollo justice trilogy to drop so that a new generation of ace attorney fans can find out what daryan's hair looks like for the first time
happy apollo justice trilogy i guess

you don't need context just look at this miles you should add your lovely additions to the collection
Did someone say it’s “Fia talks about localization time”? No? Well too bad I’m talking about Apollo Justice.
Because it’s very funny to me that due to interesting localization, in Japanese Apollo talks in a way that is much less
“Nervous and jittery but trying to psych himself up by doing/saying things that he things look cool”
And more so
“Impetuous teenager trying to sound as masculine and serious as he can whilst wanting to explode at any given moment in time”
It’s such an interesting dichotomy because it’d be difficult to localize given that it’s basically him just tone and vibe due to the fact that it’s not WHAT he’s saying necessarily, it’s HOW he’s saying it.
Examples are:
Using the pronoun “オレ” , an extremely masculine and rough pronoun (which is usually used to portray masculinity and confidence in anime/video games but in real life is usually only ever used by men when talking to close friends in private)
The use of *katakana in his dialogue (when not using loan words). It makes his dialogue seem sharper and more forceful for lack of better terms
Sometimes using ぜ as ending particle which is masculine and adds force or indicates command (especially internally) even though he does tend/try to use pretty polite language externally.
*(as you might have seen above “オレ” is written in katakana and it almost always is, especially in his internal monologue)
All of these have been stated to give him a distinct voice when compared to Phoenix, who, in Japanese, talks like a normal, pretty casual guy with a bit of a goofy streak. However, the real nuances of this difference is pretty lost in the ENG version.
While the localization does put more of a focus on Apollo hyping himself up and making himself seem cool, it generally capturing how he comes off as younger (and louder) than Phoenix- however they wasn't able to easily carry over the little edge that made him seem much more "rough," so to speak.
Anyways I just wanted to ramble about translation for a bit and so I did. I hope that this was interesting to at least a few people and served as “Write Apollo as someone who is snide and smarmy” propaganda.
