i have a lot of thoughts about phoenixās portrayal in DD and SOJ, but one thing i love about these games is how you see narumitsu's trust in one another develop over time. from phoenix shouldering the burden of saving maya alone in JFA to him immediately calling edgeworth up to tell him maya had been kidnapped in SOJ, thereās a subtle implication that phoenix no longer operates alone. his asking edgeworth for help wasn't because he had no other options; it was his first instinct. it proves that when phoenix monologued about miles edgeworth being his greatest ally, he truly meant every word.
replaying 1-2 and itās finally clicked that edgeworth thinking phoenix could murder mia was less about phoenix and almost entirely about him, whoād been living with the knowledge he killed his father despite loving him, idolizing him, and constructing his world view around him. edgeworth indicting phoenix for his mentorās murder was one of the biggest signs heād been carrying a guilty conscience for the past 15 years of his life.
This aligns exactly with what Edgeworth said at the end of Turnabout Goodbyes.
āFor the longest time, I thought that I might have killed my own father. I thought I might be a criminal. I became a prosecutor in part to punish myselfā
Edgeworth projected himself onto every defendant he prosecuted. It was probably the only way he could live with himself.
shu takumi was on a legendary writing streak with aa1 bc i hadn't even remembered he said this in turnabout goodbyes but, looking back, it was so obvious he was projecting

normally it's frustrating when mystery games hand you answers on a silver plate but in ace attorney, the witnesses' tendencies to conveniently say far more than what they were asked for is so hilarious that it becomes its own reward. ace attorney witnesses will be asked what time they saw the murder and they'll say it was 10:40 and they know it was exactly that time because that's the exact minute they open the can of Fancy Feast to feed their elderly russian blue cat, father of 12 kittens and phoenix will be like umm actually i spoke to your cat and here's a written affidavit from him that there was a recall on Fancy Feast and also he's never been to russia nor known the touch of a woman. you're going to jail buddy

at the time iām posting this, i have something to confess: i am currently on TGAA 1-4. i wrote most of this while i was on 1-2 so itāll still have that real-time accuracy, but i donāt know how i flew through TGAA. it took me a long time to get through 1-2 and then i ate 1-3 up in one sitting and iām now almost done (i think) with the 1-4 day 1 investigation. iāll also still post my 1-3 breakdown + some 1-3 reactions bc those are already drafted.
this game is peak. the pacing is rocky and some segments drag on, but i am more than willing to stomach the lows when the highs are as high as this.
i did have various reactions to 1-2 which i will link here, here, and here, so letās get into the meat of this case. warning: copious amts of glazing ahead!!!
i am in complete awe. this case gave me everything i couldāve asked for and then some. it is impossible to stress this enough, but being funny goes a long way in an ace attorney game. in any media, actually. maybe shu takumi has a really good grasp on humor and comedic timing. maybe itās the other writers or the localization team that give TGAA that extra oomf. whatever the case, iāve laughed out loud so many times while playing 1-2, the same way youād laugh at everything your crush says bc you think theyāre kinda neat and sometimes maybe a little funny and-
i will say that the case started incredibly slow despite the reveal abt who died (already talked abt that but ouch?), but considering this case introduced one of the most popular characters in the franchise, slow build up is to be expected. iāve seen the name āherlock sholmesā around and he did NOT disappoint, especially when he abandoned the silliness and locked the fuck in at the caseās climax. itās actually peak.
speaking of characters that donāt disappoint, while susatoās presence starts out unimpressive in 1-2, she quickly becomes one of 1-2ās most entertaining characters. they have never missed w the judicial assistants EVER. i love my weird girls and susato is no exception. there are a lot of emotional moments in her dialogue that convey how much respect she had for kazuma. itās in the music, the word choice, and the sprite usage. i canāt believe how well this game gets charactersā emotions across with the few dialogue boxes theyāre afforded. sometimes less really is more.
i got chills during the lead up to the confession. everything that happened was unfortunate, really. iām bitter bc of how kazumaās death played out, but god, the logic was good. no doubt in my mind that kazuma was going to consult w ryunosuke instead of ratting pavlova out. i know i keep saying this but the reveal is peak. weāre only on the second case but the characters feel so alive. the atmosphere is fantastic. and again, herlock sholmes actually knows how to lock in!
ryunosuke is written wonderfully in this. you can feel his grief/frustration; more than once, i felt ready to tear my hair out bc of how uncooperative everyone else was being. it is unbelievably cruel to accuse him of murdering his best friend.
i will admit that i expected a court segment and didnāt get that, but you know what i DID get?
this, which, arguably, has way more character!! ALSO! the inspector is back! and did i mention i love herlock sholmes? i love herlock sholmes!!!
in a not-so-smooth segue into character relationships, the depth of ryunosuke and kazumaās devotion towards one another genuinely leaves me breathless. thereās nothing i like to see explored in media more than a bond like theirs. i was and am a firm satosugu shipper; that should say a lot already!
this isnāt to say that i ship them (though, as with most ships, i do keep an open mind). what iām really trying to explain is how taken i am with ryunosukeās loyalty towards kazuma and kazumaās complete and total faith in ryunosuke. ryunosuke decides to cram study law for 40 grueling days so kazumaās dream can live on through him. the last thing kazuma thinks about before he dies is ryunosuke, because he trusts him so much he sought his opinion on how to move forward w pavlovaās situation. we as the player donāt have much time to get to know kazuma yet takumi manages to sell their relationship in a way the second trilogy couldnāt sell many of theirs. i am deeply moved. this is so poetic and indicative of an otherworldly kind of love.
iād also like to take this moment to double down on what i said about kazumaās katana and his soul, which finds itself in ryunosukeās possession at the end of the case. SYMBOLISM!
i was holding onto some hope that kazuma faked his death, tho i see thatās probably not possible now? i mean, two people were jailed for his murder. surely he wouldnāt agree to involve innocent people. heās much too noble for itā¦.
unless, ofc, the thing he absolutely had to accomplish in london forced him to abandon his morals.
ik what youāre thinking: broās still coping? and to that i say, yes. yes i am. even tho what weāve seen of kazuma goes against what iām saying, i am. do i actually believe my own bs? questionable.
there are definitely things iām missing, like how the many great deductions + that whole thing abt letting someoneās gaze lead elucidates what kazuma was up to during his final momentsā¦that is A MASTERCLASS on big reveals. beautifully done. there are other things to praise like susatoās fixation w keeping things orderly + her fangirling over sholmes. i love how she extracts knowledge from infobooks and silly magazines. thereās so much depth to her character.
i leave the case with mixed feelings abt the killer. sheās just a kid but god why did she have to assume? at the same time, though, her quick thinking was the difference between life and death for her. i am clawing at my walls!!!
