| LeonhartFour 08/25/18 5:44:00 PM #361 | At first, it's kind of puzzling as to why Rayfa believes in her father's goodness despite all evidence to the contrary, but searching his room seems to indicate that he really did care about her. It's an interesting dichotomy between the villain we see and the father he was to Rayfa, especially since he knew she wasn't his biological daughter. --- |

| LeonhartFour 08/24/18 5:31:42 PM #359 | Edgeworth: The courts have been so peaceful without you around. Phoenix: You make it sound like I leave legal devastation in my wake. Edgeworth: Heh...Well, don't you? *skip ahead* Ga'ran: We have heard much about you, Barbed One. It seems your bluffs and tomfoolery tend to leave our court devastated in their wake. Phoenix: Uh...Is that what people have been saying about me? so good Phoenix/Edgeworth as an investigative duo is super great, too. It's an outstanding bit of fanservice. --- |

| LeonhartFour 08/24/18 5:23:19 PM #358 | Edgeworth: Still at it, I see. I guess borders mean little in the face of your incurable habit. Phoenix: Well, I heard you used to present evidence left and right during your investigations, too. Edgeworth: That was a long time ago. Besides, who did you hear that from? Phoenix: Oh, I have my sources. Edgeworth: Oh? Well, tell your "source" that I look forward to his next salary review. Pretty sure this is the only reference of any kind to the AAI games in the main series. It's good to know Phoenix still stays in touch with Gumshoe, too (and is still apparently under Edgeworth's jurisdiction), since that means he might be back for AA7! --- |

| LeonhartFour 08/24/18 5:13:52 PM #357 | Hit the checkpoint in the day 2 investigation and now we've switched over to Phoenix. I think it's kind of interesting that Ga'ran's profile for both Apollo and Phoenix might be a vague hint at the big twist. Both of their profiles mention that she's a spirit medium, but it's worded as "It is said that she can channel the dead" and "They say she possesses immense power as a spirit medium." They don't just outright say she's a powerful spirit medium. It's couched in hearsay, which is interesting. --- |

I've read two of the Edgeworth ones. I need to read the other two one of these days. http://aceattorney.wikia.com/wiki/Phoenix_Wright:_Ace_Attorney_-_Official_Casebooks_(Del_Rey_Manga) If you're talking about these, I also own them, but they're...not that good. I didn't realize it was a doujinshi when I bought them (nor did I even know that doujinshi was a thing back then). --- |

Which means the gun probably broke as the minister fired its last round. Thing is...the gun's chambers are all empty. Yet, that one bullet is the only bullet we could find. Apollo: That is strange. Where did the other three go? Athena: ...Maybe Dhurke ate them. Apollo: We can ask the next time we see him. Just be ready for his predictably "shocking" answer. in a sense Athena's not totally wrong but boy do I wish they had asked him --- |

| LeonhartFour 08/23/18 5:41:01 PM #351 | Even though it really has nothing to do with the case, I like the discussion that Apollo and Athena have about the CUFFS OF JUSTICE (my word, I had forgotten they were called that) since it's true of a lot of things in the world. They talk about how they probably originally had a clearly defined purpose, but now they're just one of the many traditions that people follow without really thinking about them or knowing why. It's just a neat, thought-provoking conversation. --- |

| LeonhartFour 08/23/18 5:36:51 PM #350 | I love that Apollo and Athena have a discussion about whether the grape juice we see Phoenix drink (and Inga drank here) is regular juice or if it's fermented wine. It's a nice meta moment. --- |

Would you like to hear my brilliant theory? Apollo: Well,I guess it wouldn't do any harm. Athena: You know how people make wishes by throwing coins into a fountain, right? Well-- Apollo: You know, on second thought, I'm good. Athena: Whaaat?! Y-You sure you don't need to hear my theory? I was just about to get to the good part! also I appreciate Apollo dropping an "Every puzzle has an answer" line in here --- |
| Topic | Ace Attorney Topic Part 7: The Letting (Spoilers for AA1-6, AAI1-2) |
| LeonhartFour 08/23/18 5:12:18 PM #348 | There's a great carryover joke between Apollo's and Phoenix's segments here. If you examine the spilled water in front of Inga's house, Athena will quickly deny she had anything to do with it. Apollo says that she's the type of person who gets blamed for a lot of things, rightly or wrongly. When you switch over to Phoenix and examine the water, he offhandedly comments that it was probably Athena who did it, for which Edgeworth promptly chastises him for accusing his own subordinate like that. --- |

I mean, would I ever do something so childish? Apollo: .......... *pulls out bracelet* Athena: All right, all right! Put your bracelet away already. Talk about unfair! --- |

Phoenix: That's her. Why do you ask? Dhurke: I see...I think I know what's going on here. I've got good news for you, Wright. Maya is somewhere safe. That much I'm sure of. this is the first major red flag right here --- |

Oh well, I guess there's always AA7...! Also, it was kind of fun to see a trademark Phoenix bluff from an outside perspective without seeing any of the inner monologue that goes into it! --- |

| Topic | Ace Attorney Topic Part 7: The Letting (Spoilers for AA1-6, AAI1-2) |
| LeonhartFour 08/20/18 1:36:33 PM #319 | You know, I think it's interesting that Dhurke is much more like Phoenix than Apollo. It would explain why Apollo idolized Phoenix so much (at least on a subconscious level) since he reminded him of Dhurke. I suppose there's even a Japanese language connection since Phoenix's Japanese name has the character for "Dragon" in it, and "A dragon never yields" and all that. --- |
