So I just found out Geiru Toneido and it's... interesting. The video itself is a bit annoying, but I've seen AA stuff before that I can't really stand, but it hasn't "ruined the game/ fandom". It also is going to leave those new fans disappointed about what drew them in. If you know, you know.

I do actually like her character. I'm a big fan of Ace Attorney, and I don't quite understand why the fan base apparently hates people finding Geiru sexy. She is sexy and cute, even without, well, you know.

Also one of the things I read complained about women being sexualized. I get it, but if you say men don't get sexualized just as much, you are bullshitting. With AA in particular, I'll admit I've been annoyed at the amount of uh "fanart" of just the male characters with other male characters, if you know what I mean. Mostly because there's a freaking ton of them and they clutter up the place if I'm trying to look for the uh, rest of the art.

At the very least, maybe the extra attention to the games will inspire the company to freaking finally make AA7! It's been six years! I want those loose ends tied up, thank you!

Dear “Mr Obama”,

I haven’t been scammed successfully, though there does seem to be an ongoing campaign...

Dear “Mickey Mantle”,

I’m not much of a sports fan myself, but I at least know about baseball. I have very little to say about it one way or the other, it’s simply not my cup of tea. As such, there’s little point in a survey.

Dear “Brad Pitt”,

My apologies, however I don’t visit the theatre very often. I also know a suspicious letter when I see one.

-Hershel Layton

Dear Khura’inese Judge,

There’s no hard feelings between us, right?

(Why does this make me so worried?)

-Apollo Justice

[asklaytonandwright]

Dear Rotobaga,

Not particularly. I’ll leave that to the dandelion seeds.

-Charley

Dear Kafee Beano,

Hah. That’s not me. If it was, I wouldn’t have let such a farce continue. Interesting name, by the way.

Dear E.M.Peach,

Oh no! I’m not sure what you did, but you mustn’t do it again! I have to tell Professor Layton, he’ll know what to do!

Dear Noctarine,

That may not be entirely wise. After all, the gas was able to make it appear as though certain individuals were deceased. Just as well, I wouldn’t know where to find any of it now.

Dear SkyTheAlmighty,

I’m great, thanks! I don’t think Mr. Wright has mentioned that place. Just how small is this town though? Nothing is really coming up online.

I’ll be sure to pass on what you said to Trucy. It should make her day!

-Athena Cykes

[asklaytonandwright]

Dear ATheComputerTechnician,

I guess so... My first question is: What is objection.lol? I mean, it sounds interesting.

Wow, that felt like it took forever. As it did when I first played Great Ace Attorney. That was the first Ace Attorney game I wasn’t rabid to finish. Even though it’s not quite the same as the core series, I think its final case is to its credit. The end certainly felt worthy.

I must say, having to get the real mastermind with the assistance of the queen herself was a new one! And that has to have been the grandest breakdown I’ve ever seen. Equatable to the grand scale of the entire scheme.

As multiple characters said throughout the game, there really was corruption from the bottom to the top. Or at least as far as we know, stretching up to the lord chief justice. So many of those characters could have walked away before they got too deep, but they didn’t.

They all made too many deals with evil. That’s why I suppose karma caught up to them. The list is too extensive to write here, I feel. Don’t think I didn’t notice that Karuma breaking, even just the smallest bit was symbolic. At that moment, Kazuma’s soul also became fractured.

For the time being, I think that’s all I have to say. I’d say overall, the game is worth a try. Thanks for reading.

I’m sorry, but why would Klint’s wife have to go into hiding? Barok did not. Another contrivance... Sigh. I really do hate the whole “sins of the father thing”. It’s one of the most horribly stupid and unfair stigma... It always make my blood boil.

As an example think Bane from Batman. He was kept in prison to atone for his father’s sentence. Such a dangerous criminal likely wouldn’t have been if he hadn’t been brought up in prison.

[asklaytonandwright]

Okay, Holmes and Iris are brilliant inventors, but HOLLOGRAMS!? This is about the point where my suspension of disbelief draws the line.

I do have to say of Holmes though... when he’s serious he’s actually quite frighteningly competent.

[asklaytonandwright]

YES!!! TT_TT

This is what I wanted from Spirit of Justice! A freaking uprising... of sorts. The “judge” must address the allegations now that literally EVERYONE else will no longer take the bull!

I feel like that could have happened with Ga’ran. Or are you telling me she would have executed almost everyone in her country except her personal guard? Even if that had been attempted, I don’t think they would have been able to.

This goes a fair ways in redeeming Great Ace Attorney in my eyes. Now all they have to do is not mess it up.

[asklaytonandwright]

Okay, I take it back. They remedied it.

[asklaytonandwright]

I’m glad the prosecution can use what can be considered less than hearsay to build their case! No, I’m SO VERY GLAD!

“Yeah, the now dead man told me himself. Yeah, I’m the prosecutor in this case, what of it?”
