That’s probably because the maker of Inga’s sprites requested that they keep the link to them a secret. I doubt we’ll ever use his gun sprites in a letter though, so here are the talking and non-talking ones:
That's an interesting theory, all right, but I doubt it would hold up in court (either in the Ace Attorney universe or the real world). Either way, from what I remember, it seems to like the game tried to make it clear that he was the culprit behind Manov’s death, completely for the sake of revenge. Even if he didn’t, the guy clearly has some anger to work out, so hopefully a prison sentence will do him some good. That’s my less-hot take, anyway.
Clever, but I doubt puppy eyes are enough to sway His Honor’s opinion. Heck, I doubt he even knows an iPhone from a Gameboy Color.
Rrroooo got it! That’s a line from Bubs, by the way. I can’t remember where he said it, though... Think you could help a fellow Homestar fan out?
I’ll do my best at answering, though. I like to think of ask blogs as a way to “fill in the blanks” by showing what characters are like when they aren’t fulfilling their role in their game, movie, book, etc. For example, what’s Sonic like when he isn’t busy thwarting Dr. Eggman’s plans, what’s Donkey Kong like when things are peaceful on his island, and what’s Henry Stickmin like when things are (ahem) normal in his world? And if the character happens to be a silent protagonist (ex. Mario, Link, Kirby, etc.), that’ll give you even more blanks to fill in, which makes it more challenging, but also more fun.
So, the key ingredients for an ask blog are a deep love and knowledge of the series your character(s) are from and a good imagination. If you know what your characters are like in their series and can fill in the rest with your imagination, it’ll be easy for your followers to go along with the illusion that they’re really talking to people from a fictional universe, which should be your main goal, aside from just having fun with it. As long as you can make it convincing and fun, there’s no real right or wrong way to do it.
I don’t know very much about the Kingdom Hearts series, but I assume there aren’t any sprites you can grab from a resource page, so you’d either have to make drawings of the characters, find some still images, or clip some from gameplay videos (or even make gifs from them if you’re feeling up to it). It might take some work to get it the way you want it, but like a lot of things, it gets easier over time. And in my experience, the best source of motivation is your love for the series and its fandom, so keep that in mind if it starts getting burdensome. I hope that helps!
It was an announcement so much as something that wasn’t announced. That letter was in reference to TGS 2020, which, unless I missed something, didn’t mention a new entry in the Ace Attorney series. That may not be solid proof that it’s reached the end, but that’s what it’s beginning to look like.
But, as I mentioned before, the fandom’s nowhere near dying, so that’s good news, at least.
It’s an interesting idea, but I can’t say I feel the same way (and not just because I’m a closet Justicykes shipper). Besides their considerable age gap, I see their relationship as more of a big-brother-and-little-sister one. Whether they’re on the same side or opposing each other, Simon can’t seem to resist the opportunity to tease Athena, but he also knows how to provide help whenever she needs it. In his own way, at least.
I also have a hard time picturing Simon in a romantic relationship with anyone, to be honest. I’m not saying it’s impossible, but any hopeful candidate would have to put up with his moodiness, his twisted humor, and his equally moody feathered friend. I’m sure there might be someone out there who can deal with all that, but finding them would be a big challenge, to say the least.
Not at the moment, unfortunately. I don’t know about the other Mods, but I haven’t watched the anime, and even if I had, making sprites from it would be a bit tricky. Perhaps that’ll happen somewhere down the road, but for now, characters and cases from the anime are off limits. Sorry.
For me, it’d have to be Tahrust Inmee. That might seem unfair, considering his murder was that of himself, but let’s not forget that he was willing to let an innocent woman and her lawyer lose their lives in order to hide the truth. Normally, this would be enough to give me an overall negative view of a character, but his motive was to protect his wife and unborn child from certain death. That may not excuse his actions, but it did put him between a rock and a hard place. I’m honestly not sure what I would be tempted to do in his situation, but I know it’d be a difficult decision.
I definitely feel for Yanni Yogi, too, but we weren’t given as many details about his past, plus his only motive was revenge, so my sympathy for him isn’t quite as strong. While we’re talking about tragic culprits, I should also mention Simon Keyes, who “was himself a victim,” as Edgeworth worded it, as well as the almost-killer Katherine Hall, who just wanted to find whoever was responsible for her adopted father’s unjust prison sentence. Not to mention the overload of remorse she displayed afterward.
Yep, I’ve been a fan of the Henry Stickmin series since Infiltrating the Airship. I’ve been meaning to buy the collection, but haven’t made the time for it just yet. I’m looking forward to seeing all the fails.
In the meantime, here’s some distraction for you:
Not yet, but I like what I’ve seen of it...which mostly just includes the blooper reel (Strong Language Warning). Your description of it makes it sound even more enticing, so maybe I'll get around to it soon. I've been aching to give something a Co-Mod Seal of Approval lately, anyway.
