I assume this guy with the pink shirt and the white jacket wearing a gold medal has to be Edgeworth. He seems pretty rivally to me.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

For real though, Baby Franziska is adorable.

Phoenix seemed to have a massive personality shift in that game. In the orig trig, he seemed like he was the put-upon sane man, used by the universe as a punching bag. Then he stops being the main character, and he turns into a goofy poker playing chessmaster.

yep welcome to like one of the most common complaints about AAJ, Phoenix is literally a different character

Also, guessing right now that
Trucy's mum is Lamiroir. A character with a still-unexplained amnesia backstory as well as a missing-but-not-dead woman? Have to be the same person.


Edit:
It's really sad to make a prediction and then about 10 seconds later get it confirmed by the game because that picture in the locket is super definitely her

Yes, actually this is what bothers me personally.
Since Apollo is so much like old Phoenix anyway, the progression would be a lot cooler if Phoenix stayed as the more put-together, experienced character. Phoenix calling Apollo and telling him he's a full-fledged lawyer would have a lot more impact if I didn't still have cases of Phoenix just winging it and being a dork like always. I like new phoenix a lot actually and I'm sad he's lost to the sands of time.

Spoiler:
I felt very disconnected to AJ Phoenix, the point of Phoenix in the original trilogy is that you learn and grow with the character in each case and as the game goes on, seeing Phoenix in the disbarment trial as a super slick experienced barrister is really disconnecting
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

so im finally at the actual court part of the final trial of spirits of justice, i started playing months ago but took a long break right at the start of the third case

as i vaguely remember the first case was good but it seemed like everything was slowing to a crawl by the time some of the third case things started happening (wasnt as bad as a thought after getting through it, but it def. wasn't a quick case either. and none of the characters in that case were particularly interesting.)

4th case is def. filler like parama said but blackquill managed to be the best character in this game too so far so that's fine with me

but the real reason i'm here

DAT OUTFIT CHANGE THO I'M HYPED
