>video game series gets an anime
>people only want to talk about the anime
Just finished Phoenix Wright vs. Professor Layton.
I dont think I can ever play an Ace Attorney again without Hint coins.
They need an excuse to talk somewhere because /a/ is trash
>>337852080
So how's the anime?
>>337852235
the multiple witness testimony was the best thing to happen to the AA series, too bad they'll never use it again
>>337852615
1-1 and 1-2 were pretty shitty but 1-3 is of significantly better quality
>>337852915
White Engrish saved 1-2
what else is there really to discuss about AA? the new game isn't out yet
>>337853813
Discuss the original trilogy
>>337852718
I heard it was coming back in AA6
>>337854025
Fine. Post your 5 favorite cases
1-5 > 2-4 > 5-4/5 > 1-4 > I2-3
>>337852615
The OP is pretty shit
>>337852915
>the ridiculously over the top objection effects in 1-3
I love it. Phoenix delivering the final objection causing the lights to turn off and a huge gust of wind being swept through the courtroom was so nonsensical yet awesome.
>>337852718
>>337854589
Literally in DGS
Literally coming back in AA6

Except all the threads about the AA anime have been about the games too, what the fuck are you on about?
>>337854706
3-5=2-4>3-2>5-DLC>1-5
>>337855613
3-5 has too many plot holes and completely forgets who the defendant is on the final trial day.
>>337855426
I fucking love how the anime actually showed Edgeworth's internal doubt and conflict with facial expression as he's about to help Wright corner De Vasquez.
You can tell people making this anime really care, they just don't have the budget to do it properly but the heart is there.
The anime deserved better.
Just started playing the series last week. I'm up to Trial and Tribulations. I heard people hate Apollo Justice which comes after that. Any reason why?
>>337855671
But I still love because of how satisfying everything that happens is.
>>337852080
>people want to talk about the new thing in the series
WOAH
>>337855795
This guy right here.
>>337855795
Honest advice here.
Apollo is next in release order, but chronologically the Investigations games are actually next and before Apollo.
Dual Destinies also "flows" better when played directly after Apollo, so if I may recommend I'd say you should play the Investigations games after AA3 and play Apollo after those.
You willl need to grab the fantranslation for AAI2 obviously, but it's amazingly well done and indistinguishable from an official product.
Also Apollo has some really shitty cases and everything gets handed to Apollo on a silver platter by different characters, mostly Wright, stealing his spotlight.
I've always wondered what Phoenix looked like shirtless. He never works out and is out of shape (gets exhausted easily) yet his figure makes him come off as someone very strong and buff.no homo
>>337855795
Radical shift in tone, protagonist doesn't do shit, and some honest to god awful cases
>>337856089
A good suit will accentuate your shoulders and make your arms look beefier than they are.
>>337856089
Good suit, that's all there is to it.
Everyone looks good in a well tailored suit, even fatasses.
>>337855976
Why did Zak do the shit he did? It was completely nonsensical.
>>337852615
Meh.
Play the fucking games first unless you want to ruin some of the best gaming experiences you can have.
>>337856278
someone post that Zak comic
>>337855795
Most of the characters you've come to know and love won't even be mentioned.
>>337855671
>3-5 has too many plot holes
of course, it covers the Spirit Maiden bullshit
>>337856489
Not even that, but there were so many easy ways to stop Morgan's plan that Misty and Iris declined to use.
>>337856598
>plan that Misty and Iris declined to use.
Iris was just someone channeling Dahlia so why would she foil the bad guy's plan?
>>337856598
Name at least 3 ways they could have done it better.
>>337856820
Literally everything could have been avoided if Misty wasn't so assblasted about getting the suspect of the DL-6 case wrong and just stayed with her daughters
>>337856089
haha just for laughs also what do you think his abs smell like just curious haha
>>337855795
just play it and make up your own opinion, faggot
>>337856598
Reminder that the plan they enacted that ended in murder was an emergency backup plan, not the original plan
>>337856981
she would have died sooner.
So how long until the inevitable dub of the animet-there's gonna be one, r-right?
>>337855671
>3-5 has too many plot hole
only people who don't remember the case think this matters anything
>>337856725
>Iris was just someone channeling Dahlia
I think you need to play 3-5 again m8.
>>337856089
>>337856180
>>337856257
Except he does exercise outside of the trials
he's ripped bby.
>>337852080
If the game is in English, sure the discussion about the anime happens but people will still talk about the game too
Now if the game is completely in Japanese, that's a whole different story
Can we all agree that this series would be better without supernatural shenanigans?
>>337856598
Only real other way I can think of would have been to straight up tell the 9 year old that their mother is trying to trick them into murdering their beloved cousin.
>>337858218
>The game would be better without Pearls and Maya occasionally gaining massive tiddies
I think not
>>337855426
>last webm
It actually seems to have good quality
Did Capcom noticed how bad it was and decided to increase the budget?Or maybe they allocated all the budget into 1-4
>>337858606
I think the game would be better without Maya period.
>>337855575
Almost threw up at this part
You do not, under any circumstances, sexualize the Maya
Is there a link to the sub?
>>337855795
It did the MGS2 thing where it introduced a new character so you could see the main character under a different light. Think about how people are still upset about Raiden after all these years.
Also people are autistic and can't handle seeing video playback controls more than once.
>>337858884
1-3 looked considerably better than 1-1 and 1-2 too.
Generally the anime seems to be improving as it goes.
>>337859626
From what I've heard 1 - 1 and 1 - 2 were done last and had rushed production with shit deadlines.
>>337859981
Here's hoping they get fixed on bluray.
>>337858218
That's what I like about the anime, it actually drops the paranormal shit after 1-2, Mia never appears in 1-3 in the anime, as opposed to the game where she needed to be there to get Cody to talk
What are the odds of JFA and T&T getting animated? I know they only greenlit the first one but is it possible Capcom will greenlight the other 2 if it gets popular enough?
>>337860993
this season is AA1 and 2, in two cours
so we'll see JFA at the very least
Which Cornered theme is the best and why is the best and why is it Apollo Justice?
>>337852080
I watched only the first episode of the anime and it was absolute shit
Is there a reason to keep watching if I've already played the game?
>>337860993
Anime is really successful, so expect them to animate T&T
>>337855269
That part was so over the top that I just had to love it. The fucking wind gust gets me every time. That's how every final objection should be. In fact it should just get even crazier as the series goes on.
>>337865784
>phoenix will destroy the whole courtroom by 1-4
>if DD is reached they will replace the bombing with one of his objections
>>337855269
Vasquez literally blown the fuck out
>>337855426
God damn what a shitty language.
>>337863710
It gets better
>>337866023
I can't fucking wait for the final objection in case 1-4. He better destroy the damn courtroom with that objection.
>>337855795
Apollo is a pretty plain and boring character, and that gets worse in a world were every character is a weirdo or charismatic.
Also the story take turn for the worse, you can see there that ace attorney is starting going downhill
>>337859157
kissanime has it if you really have to stream it, but only in crunchyroll subs. as long as you don't have autism over the english names you'll be fine
>>337857726
It's a camera illusion were the closer the small it looks
>>337855426
Steel Samurai anime when?
>>337866156
Dub retard detected.
This medium really couldn't exist as it does without the Japanese language as its foundation.
>>337855795
Apollo Justice has its faultsalthough I enjoyed it anyway
But Dual Destines is really where the game series goes to shit
>>337866193
Don't you fucking lie, It doesn't. I'm watching this shit end to end. I will witness the murder of one of my favourite series.Why do I even like Crapcom games anymore.
>>337855426
What Subs are those?
>>337867329
AJ is worse than DD, it nearly killed the series.
>>337852915
so should I just skip to 1-3? I've played the game before so it's not like i'd be missing anything plot-wise, right?
>>337852080
Because games have been discussed to death and I honestly would rather not discuss the upcoming Ace Attorney 6, because god fucking damn info gets leaked like crazy. I even know how 3rd case's victim looks like. I hate it.
Anime needs to step up its Maya's feet game.
>>337868157
It does get better though, it was complete shit and now it's bad
>>337868451
AJ is best selling game in the series.
>>337855426
Somehow I never noticed Nick's thunderbolt eyebrows until watching the anime.
>>337868451
>constant handholding
>cases easy as shit
>fucking monsterous turnabout
>Athena and Blackquill are the most pointless characters ever
>just Athena in general
nah
>>337852080
Game adaptations always have people talking about the game. Utawarerumono 2's threads consisted of talking about the game more than the actual anime. That shit wasn't even translated and more people still brought up the game during its run.
>>337856412
What the fuck was this guy's problem
>>337868821
watch the latter half of 1-2 for some great white engrish
>>337869331
I think adaptations of first two cases are pretty bad, but for understandable reasons. Those were tutorial cases and they can work only when you beat them yourself as a player. Doesn't explain shit animation though.
However, adaptation of Turnabout Samurai was fairly competent, I actually now have hope for Turnabout Goodbyes.
>>337856089
Yeah, I mean he took a punch to the gut well, unless Apollo is a weak man, it would show that he is somewhat buff.

>>337875149

The judge is a fucking senile old man who should have retired years ago.
Just watched the God Eater anime.
It was 6/10, alright. MC was a total mary sue, otherwise it wouldve been 8/10.

I wish AA6 was dubbed like PLvPW
at least the "HOLD IT" bits.
>>337876970
How do you dub a game that isn't even out in Japan yet?

I hope its dubbed*
I don't think DGS does them for every witness.

>I think you need to play 3-5 again m8.
to be honest, I only read cliffnotes of 3-5 because fuck the spirit maiden bullshit and everyone involved is horrible.
All I know is that Iris is someone channeling Dahlia because of the whole "same hair" hing when channeling happens
>>337875149
>the health bar is actually the judge's patience
>the more ludicrous claims, the more damage it takes
Now the penalty system makes perfect sense, eh?
>>337878648
Actually, Iris is a real person, it's just that the person they thought was Iris was actually Maya channeling Dahlia
>>337859164
>Think about how people are still upset about Raiden after all these years.
I hate Raiden a little bit less now because he got better in MGS4 and MGR.
Like how Apollo got better in DD. Plus Nick was a complete shithead in AJ
>>337876279
The court is extremely biased against the defense.
>detectives do not share evidence with the defense; if they don't act as their own detectives, they stand no chance, especially since the odds are so stacked against them in the actual court proceedings
>defense sometimes has to stop the judge from banging the hammer before the defense can even begin their argument
>prove that the key evidence is misleading
>prove that key witnesses are either unreliable or lying
>prove that things couldn't have happened as the detectives assumed
>do this repeatedly; witnesses and the prosecution are forced to change their story multiple times
>judge is still ready to send the defendant to his death
>go on to prove that the defendant couldn't have possibly been involved in the crime; it simply doesn't make sense
>judge is STILL ready to declare the defendant guilty
>why?
>because he still doesn't know who the real killer is, and how THEY committed the crime
>in order to acquire a "not guilty" verdict, the defense actually needs to not only PROVE the defendant's innocence (as compared to introducing a shadow of a reasonable doubt), but also corner the true murderer and describe every event down to the last detail
It's almost a wonder that the state even wastes taxpayer money on a courtroom, a judge, and a prosecutor. IRL, this court would declare almost every single defendant who enters its halls guilty.
>>337878648
>hating Maya
>hating the Fey subplots
>not finding the Fey villains to be some of the most in memorable villains in the franchise
>skipping content (bad enough by itself, especially since it's the final case of an Ace Attorney game) and then trying to talk as if he'd read it
Jesus Christ, this retard.
>People complaining about how comically horrible the courts in Ace Attorney are
>when that's the whole fucking point of the game
You do know that the series was made to be a political statement about the court system in Japan, right?
>>337879779
I skipped cases 3, 4, and 5 of T&T
wait the anime is airing already? heard about it a few months ago but didnt think it was coming so soon
>>337879801
It sounds to me like the game's writers would approve of people complaining about how comically horrible the courts are.
Steinsgate anime was GOAT
Danganronpa was a GOAT category of it's own
God Eater anime was shit but enjoyable to some extent
ChaosHead was an irredeemable shitfest not even worth mentioning
>>337880172
the dangan ronpa anime was trash and you're trash for liking it

because fuck the plot, I want to see shit explode
>>337879919
so you didnt play the game is what youre saying
>>337880251
Fuck off
I also enjoyed P4G animu more than the game
suck on deez nuts fggt
>>337879545
The game is a fairly accurate depiction of Japan's legal system.
Their law is pretty shit there, they have a near 99% conviction rate and once the start hammering law at you it takes a miracle to actually get a not guilty.
Guilty until proven innocent in Japan.
>>337880683
>so you didnt play the game is what youre saying
because the game felt weaker plus Godot was a complete asshole to Wright. and I don't mean that like in the professional rival sense, like Godot was personally pissed at Wright
>>337880706
The only good P4G episode is the christmas one, also happens to be the only episode to not have Marie shoehorned in it

>>337881113
I read in the cliffnotes why.
If Godot actually looked into the case, he would of known that Wright was nowhere near Mia when Reed White killed her.
he is blaming Wright for something that is beyond Wright's control
>>337881298
If anything, it's Mia's fault for making making the meetup time at fucking night

T&T was one of the strongest games in the AA franchise.
You're an idiot.
>>337881886
then why doe 3/5ths of the cases deal with the horrible subplot and introduce more bad characters with that subplot (Godot and Dahlia)

>>337881085
Yup, while Japan has a very high conviction rate, juveniles get away with tons of shit. Most cases involving minors get ignored because being a notadult is a super good defence in Japan.
>>337852615
Literally the games animated.
>>337881085
>letting these animals back out on to the street
There has to be something broken in your mind in order to carry out over a month of pointless torturing of another individual in such a brutal fashion. No amount of rehabilitation could fix such scum.
Shame on those cowards who didn't report it to the police, too.
>>337882124
>had it downloaded and installed for months

>>337883695
Japan and China's "it's not my fucking problem" mentality makes me really not want to go to either of those places

>>337881085
It's really sickening.
>tfw shared this with a professor of mine
>she couldn't even read the full article about the story>you'll never get to Punish
>>337884035
It was shown in the third AA6 trailer.
>>337883943
At least both countries are fairly ashamed of that aspect of their cultures, and look up to the heroes who do make someone else's suffering into their fucking problems just as much any other culture.
>>337884035
>>337884118
It was just a metaphor for how the two have separate journys through the game but connect in the end.
It's similar to the DGS trailer with Holmes prosecutor, it won't actually happen in the game.
>>337880172
The Chaos;Head VN is worth the read if anything for how it nails gore on the head I almost threw up in one of the bad endings
Reminder that Maya is going to die in AA6 for the purpose of shock value
>manga series gets a vidyagame
>people make threads where they only discuss the manga and never the game on /v/
I'm looking at you JoJofags
>>337882127
If you got through 2-3, nothing in T&T should be a problem. I think 3-2 even has one of the best villains in the series.
>>337884194
Just to give some examples that people here might be familiar with:
Yume Miru Kusuri
Elfen Lied
One Piece
In all three of these, the "not my problem" cowards are treated as being a part of the problem on several occasions. In other words, there definitely is at least some social pressure in Japan to not be that person who makes it exceedingly easy for scum to partake in their scumbag ways and get away with it. Likewise, much like in western cultures, heroes in Japanese provide the unyielding bravery that the cowards won't. Again, that's social pressure.
>>337886725
Cross Ange is maybe even a bigger example.
Manafags were supposed to be the Japanese.
>>337886725
I don't know much about the first one or One Piece, but In Elfen Lied, what exactly can a normal person do to a monster with invisible razor blade arms?
>>337855102
Fuck you, the OP is wonderful
>>337887687
They were shown cruelly abandoning helpless little girls to starvation and homelessness. Only our heroic MC was kind enough to step in.
>>337887772
I like the song (and it actually holds some relevance to Gyakuten Saiban), but the animation is probably the laziest assembly of cliches that I've seen from an OP in a long time.
Not OP, BTW.
>>337888070
I don't recall the step dad molesting the girl in public though, and the mom couldn't really do anything since he was providing for them
>>337888070
Yeah I agree. I guess I should've clarified that I meant the song was great. Because it is.
>>337879336
>I like Raiden more because of MGS4
I hate you so goddamn much >>337879336
>>337888293
With Elfen Lied, I was thinking of a few of the girls during their abandoned stages.
IIRC (I don't feel like looking it up, and it's probably been a decade since I've seen it), both Lucy and the little brown haired girl found themselves alone (due to an irresponsible mom in the latter's case). Random people were fairly nice to them... until they found out that they were homeless and needy, which caused them to lash out at them in order to avoid getting caught up in their problems. This was part of what made Lucy so insane.
>>337852080
/a/ has leaked heavily if you haven't noticed.
>>337888643
The animation really pisses me off, though.
>crying Phoenix
What is he crying over?
>Maya praying in a generic pose
Since when?
>Edgeworth's dramatic walking in the rain
What's he walking dramatically for?
>red string of fate between Phoenix and Edgeworth
That doesn't really describe their relationship.
>sunflowers
What significance do sunflowers have to Ace Attorney?
>running through sunflowers
Fuck you.
>pass by Mia while running; stop and turn at this important meeting
This normally happens when a character is someone that the protagonist is either trying to meet or is the protagonist's lover. When it's all smiles, the idea is to portray the complete joy and comfort that the protagonist feels upon meeting this character. While Mia is certainly an important woman to Phoenix, she's a figment of his past, and he's content with that.
>lazy animation all around
This is a problem with the anime in general. The animation is an extremely important part of the atmosphere in the games.
Was dual destinies that bad? I'm working my way through AA3 right now, and I've heard that people hate the Apollo game, but I thought that people liked DD.
>video game trilogy gets a animated series
>people only remember the shitty cartoon
>every game after that is bad
life is suffering
>>337881004
The first episode and the couple episodes that focused on Adachi were alright, not great or anything, but were passable in comparison to the rest of the series. Marie figuring out Adachi was the killer and stopping Izunami with a hug was straight up retarded though.
>>337891030

>literally jungle jimmy neutron

>>337852080
Hope you're not talking about AA, because the anime istritedogshit.
>>337891030
What >>337892103 said. But speaking generally and without spoilers, DD was the first AA game fans had in English after a three-year drought, so initial reaction was ecstatic. Once the fervor calmed down, the blemishes stood out more..
