for what purpose?

they came full circle in AA5

One of the many mysteries of how they managed to make AJ so bad. Especially since AJ Phoenix is awful. And AJ Ema, yuck.
3 > 1 > AAI > 2 > 5 > 4
Is anyone going to tell Apollo he has a sister
Because Capcom was sperging over having a new game in, at that time, popular series star somebody else other than the cover guy for the last 3 games
They waned Phoenix in at some point
So Takumi made it about discovering what happened to Wright with the new protag
>>342629572
That's just for the plot, like how T&T was about Maya's family, Wright was in a position of teaching 2 future successors
>>342629984
There was sequel bait at the end of AA6 where Nick was talking to their mom about it. It's probably just their excuse to get Apollo back to Japanifornia.
>>342629650
Let me fix that for you
T&T=SoJ=AAI2>DGS>AA=AJ>VsLayton>AAI=2
>>342629650
pretty much true, except I'd put AAI and JFA as equals, and AAI2 is better than T&T
>>342630350
I thought that was AJ
He talks to her again in AA6?
How the fuck does he still not know?
Especially with AA6's character development that Apollois brothers with new prosecutor
The developers wanted to evolve the series and move on but Capcom cockblocked them and forced them to shove Phoenix in as a heavy part of the story.
So just another case of Capcom management fucking a game up.

>3/4 top rated games arejapan exclusives
epic
>>342630453
This may be the single worst AA franchise ranking I've ever seen.
And you forgot Dual Destinies.
>>342630571
I haven't gotten around to AAI2 yet. But since we have essentially the same exact AA taste, I will expedite it in my backlog.
The reason I like AAI so much is because I appreciated the lack of paranormal handholding the rest of the games have.
>>342629572
I mean it still was Wright's great return
Apollo was cucked though
But Atleast SoJ gives him the spotlight
>>342631404
THEM FEET THOUGH
>>342629650
wheres aai2
Is AA6 more fanfiction crap?
The main team just really don't know what the fuck they want to do with the mainline anymore.
My interest in the series was completely shattered in the moment I saw punished Phoenix, the fallen attorney.
Fuck everything that went after that
>>342631313
I used to have a AAI as better than JFA as well, but after replaying it, I switched up my rankings.
JFA has arguably the GOAT case in the entire series with 2-4, which is why I bumped it up. 2-2 is better than what I remembered it to be, while 2-1 and 2-3 are still shitty.
With AAI, there's no case that's overwhelmingly shitty, but the first three 3 cases are pretty average all around. Case 4 is really good though, and 5 was good until it started to drag on too much, so that's how I evened it down to equaling them.
AAI2 won't disappoint. It has the GOAT case 1-3 in the series, and case 4 and 5 are GOAT contenders. Great from top to bottom.
>>342631998
2-1 I'm fine with since it was just a short, stupid tutorial case. Any time I get to go up against Winston I'm happy.
2-3 is my AA guilty pleasure and I know I am in the vast minority on this one, and fully understand people hating it. But I liked the cast and the sympathetic killer.
It's just a shame that 2-3's insane series of events is the most convoluted writing in the franchise.

>3
SoJ is coming in September anon
>>342631801
AA6 is more or less what T&T and AAI2 are
They are closure for what DD and AJ has set up while pushing mlre potential
Everything comes together in the end and it's beautiful
You'll like it
>>342631404
Speaking of Athena
Did they just drop her in AA6 as permanent helper or does she get her own case?
>>342633515Yes, she does
Case 4, it's a giant Trial only with Athena leading
