“I’ll be cheering for you, Edg- um, both of you”

source : Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

fun fact : this line is localization exclusive, in the original JP dialogue he says this, with no Edgeworth-hintings aaskasjkjas-

rough translation :

the localization team KNOWS.

[narumitsuarchive]

"Nick's Secret Fanboy, Edgeworth"

Maya, stop teasing him asjhjsajsha-

[narumitsuarchive]

Fun fact, the last two part of the dialogue is actually localization exclusive lol.

in the original JP dialogue, Maya instead calls him a "hard-working prosecutor" instead of "Nick's secret fanboy" as an attempt to cheer him up by appreciating him somewhat (lol).

VERY VERY rough translation :

so anyway localization-exclusive fanservice strikes again, god bless.

i archived the infamous "dadification" article from Sans Francisco Chronicle for archival reasons.

so if you're curious and its not available in your region, you can try this archive link here,

it should work hh.

'Dadification' rises in importance as video games embrace queer roman…

happy pride month, narumitsu nation.

[cloud-shaped-duck]

Did I call my nearest newspaper seller to see if they had the SF chronicle and then get my mother to drive me there at 10:45 just to get the Wrightworth newspaper?

...Happy Pride Month!

Phoenix and Edgeworth's perfume merch description shares the same ending-line.

rough translation :

Phoenix's :

"A gentle and clean water-marine scent that gradually forms a scent of raspberries and peaches. The passion for truth is in its lingering musk."

Edgeworth's :

"Elegant floral scent, reminiscent of the sharpness of logic and noble elegance. A vivid contrast between citrus at first and then flowers second. Gradually forms a sweet scent of chrysanthemum(?). The passion for truth is in its lingering musk."

Bonus : the way they arranged the perfumes for display purpose. (defense and prosecutors are actually from two different perfume sets)

[narumitsuarchive]

In regards of Phoenix's suit for AA5 onwards.

The blue-silver knight clip on his tie from one of its early concepts, possibly referencing Edgeworth's custom chess set and similarities to Edgeworth's clothing design in Phoenix's final design.

translation :

"It is one of the severest tests of friendship to tell your friend his faults. So to love a man that you cannot bear to see a stain upon him and to speak painful truth through loving words, that is friendship." - Henry W. Beecher

heyo! a little bit of extra interesting info about this particular quote,

while it is true its Henry W. Beecher's quote, the statement in this page is actually a reference to it and not an entirely direct word-per-word translation.

try translating each JP lines yourself as there's actually some extra words put in there that may pique your interest hahaha.

i'll edit the original post to signify this.

here's the quote in text :

友人にその欠点を教えるのは、

友情のもっともきびしい試練の1つである。

もし相手に腹が立つとか持たらしいというのなら、

つかつかと近づいて激しい言葉を浴びせるのは 何でもない。

だが友人を愛するあまり、

友人がにけがれるのを見るに耐えきれず、

その痛ましい真実を愛の言葉で告げる。

これこそ真の友情である。

しかしそうした友人を持っているものは ごく僅かしかいない。

われわれの敵はつねに、

そのままでいいとしか考えない、

剣の先を突きつけながら。

[narumitsuarchive]

i notice this post got quite the attention so i'll inform you of this again that the words above are not direct translation of Beecher's quote, but its paraphrasing it.

Here's a translation to the words above in its entirety (and what they imply) :

"It is one of the severest tests of friendship to tell your friend their faults and shortcomings.

If you are annoyed with someone, or if they seem to have a problem with you and if you are angry at them, its easy to just walk up to them and give them a hard time.

But when you love your friend so much, you can't bear seeing them in pain, you tell them painful truth through loving words. That is what true friendship is all about.

However, only a few people are lucky enough to have such a friend. Our enemies would think that its okay for us to remain the same,

While they'd point their swords at our backs"

as you can see, some of the lines were not in the original Henry W. Beecher's quote,

however it actually gave the quote thats paraphrased even more depth as it gives the audience the perspective of Edgeworth's position and Phoenix's care for him.

how Edgeworth was lucky to have Phoenix as his friend, who cares for him so much he'd rather confront him with painful truths directly about his errors through 'loving words' instead of just letting Edgeworth succumb to the dark of his Demon Prosecutor ways that they both know would eventually hurt Edgeworth himself in the end.
