Most people felt just fine on 5-1, which...isn't necessarily bad. Some didn't like the timeline of this case and felt it just made things more confusing than it should. Some liked the ending with the bomb being a bluff. Speaking of an exciting ending, 5-1 gets its two highest scores at the very end of the day.
Summary:
In a small mountain village crazy for yokai, a terrible murder is blamed on a man accused also of being a demon. Taking place before Case 1, Apollo and Athena team up for the first time against the mysterious, possibly murderous Prosecutor Simon Blackquill.
Main Characters:
Apollo Justice, Athena Cykes, Phoenix Wright, Trucy Wright, Bobby Fulbright, Simon Blackquill, The Judge
Other Characters:
Jinxie Tenma, Damian Tenma, Rex Kyubi, Phineas Finch, Florent L'Belle, Tenma Taro
My rating: 8/10. I really wasn't vibing with this case at first. You know who the murderer is with the cold open and I wasn't really into Nine-tails Vale or the Tenma Taro legend. Trial 1 changes that. Blackquill makes an amazing first impression and Apollo, who has always been likable but never got a chance to truly flex, gets a worthy opponent with Blackquill. Blackquill breaking the chains and going SILENCE is so dang good. Ending Trial 1 with the morose Damian becoming a way more cartoon-y evil version of himself was also really good. Day 2 is just really good in general, with of course the final twist being an all-time non-epic-case classic for the series.
