OKAY first day of werk down and it's all good. I can finally shake that unsettling feeling that I'll never successfully get a job and will have to scrape by some other way.

More to come this week.

Bump

Thanks for your patience y'all. I will bring it on my lunch and play it then.

AA 6-1 The Foreign Turnabout

Peeslub'n continues his groovy yet suspect testimony. Something seems off, I am pretty sure it's his description of how audio works in the temple. He keeps describing different rooms and it's just weird.

Also he seems to be a huge red herring, he is visually bizarre and sometimes that's not The Guy. This definitely is fun for a first case.

Looking forward to playing more soon. Thanks y'all!

Question: what other games would you recommend for a fan of the AA franchise?

Happy 6-year anniversary to Spirit of Justice!

As far as other stuff similar to AA, Danganronpa and Zero Escape are the two series it gets compared to most. There's also Higurashi/Umineko.

Woo!

Hadn't heard of Zero Escape but have heard good things about DR. Read through a relatively tiny bit of Umineko and enjoyed it. Thanks for the recs!

AA 6-1 The Foreign Turnabout

We catch Peeslub'n in his lie - the window shades were ordered lowered on that morning. There's no way he could see through multiple sets of closed blinds to pin murder on Ahlbi.

Peeslub panics, his face makeup takes on a darker shade in a few places but definitely around the eyes, and speakers pop. He's ready to lay it on us rock 'n' roll-style.

We'll see what he has to say next time!

well i just felt a bit sad

AA 6-1 The Foreign Turnabout

Peeslub'n insists that he found the body of Rohl and this leads us in the direction of Rohl being not only the victim, but the thief. The scroll informed everyone that the temple would have tighter security because of recent thefts. Peeslub'n was down by the breaker, so perhaps he caused the power outage? However, doing that would have left Rohl to be killed in the dark, unless there was some way to shed some light on the situation.

The Treasure Box glows. So we figure if Rohl was holding it [stealing in progress!] then it would be easy to find him in the dark. Time to explore the Treasure Box in great detail. The blood spatter is particularly disturbing in these graphics, can't quite explain why.

See you next time!

Bump

AA 6-1 The Foreign Turnabout

The blood splatter shows a hand outline, this matches Rohl's blood spattered hand in the photo. Rohl could tell from the weight of the treasure box that it was empty of the orb. Having held it before at a ceremony, he could tell the weight difference. Peeslub'n, however, needed to now get rid of the witness to his crime.

Yoooo Peeslub'n hit Pat Rohl on the head with his flying V and we found out how to secretly open the box. Brutal.

This seemed more involved than other first cases I've played, but playing it once a week will do that lol

In other news, boo! It's spooky season and I've got a discussion question: you get to dress up for Halloween and hang out with the AA character of your choice. Who is it and what are y'all wearing? [budget is no object, we're making MvK pay]

It's definitely the longest first case in the series, so that's not just your imagination.

As far as Halloween costumes go, I'd probably just roll with the Steel Samurai.

That's amazing! And what a mark it's made!

I will be starting 6-2 this weekend. Any Halloween plans, y'all?

AA 6-2 The Magical Turnabout
Phoenix, Ahlbi and Inga have a little chat, then we go elsewhere.

At this point we return to all our old faves - Apollo "Polly" Justice and Athena Cykes attending the debut performance of Trucy Wright, magician extraordinaire. The show is sold out and we go to visit Trucy during intermission in her extremely cluttered dressing room.

These three are supposed to be holding down the fort while Phoenix is travelling, but if 6-1 was any indication, we're about to hit some big snags.

See you next time!

One more time

Thank you so much!! will play more this week and writeups.

AA 6-2 The Magical Turnabout

Trucy is accused of ... involuntary manslaughter in her latest show, Trucy in Gramarye-land! There's a 'bring Mr Reus back to life' bit where a coffin box is supposedly stabbed by a sword but the extant footage doesn't exactly show the point of contact, or the body. But Mr Reus is for sure dead and was stabbed.

This very bad.

The little wooden bro's shadow was flying around a couple of times. I'm sure that will be relevant later. In the meantime, Trucy is safe but Apollo and Athena can't get to her yet. There's also a very sus purple bunny thing which is maybe a red herring but who knows.

Discuss: Who makes the best figgy pudding in the AA franchise?

figziska von karma?

ALMOST Christmas means it WASN'T Christmas!!

Polly! Polly!
Have we forgotten something?

*squawk*

Don't forget DL-6!

Bump

Happy New Year, y'all! Very glad that we did not forget DL-6 ITT.

Holidays were hectic but it's back to average, everyday January life. Looking forward to more SoJ.

How did you ring in the new year?

Bump

Bump.

AA 6-2 The Magical Turnabout

Our favorite Wright daughter is behind bars for now, and it's up to Athena and Polly to investigate. Trucy's black notebook was among the victim's things in the dressing room :\

We catch up with Ema Skye and she gives us the rundown: it's being considered a homicide not involuntary manslaughter. All because some Khura'in monk named Nahyuta Sahdmadhi rolled up and the prosecutor's office is looking rather thin these days. [Edgeworth really cleaned house on all those corrupt prosecutors!!]

I think he's the lavender haired guy? But I am looking forward to his introduction.

See you soon!

Bump

AA 6-2 The Magical Turnabout

Extended investigation, seems pretty long. We did talk to bunny lady again and it sounds like she admires Trucy a whole bunch.

Would love it if Mr Reus was a threat and bunny lady saved Trucy's life even if she was still framed for the crime. Hmm... more predictions to come, if the investigation ever ends.

Yeah, SoJ is a long game compared to other games in the series (except AAI2, which you haven't played yet).

Bump

Today marks 15 years since the release of Apollo Justice. Doesn't feel like it's been anywhere near that long.

Speak for yourself. I'm old as hell now.
