i think it’s time to influence the population ‼️ i know i talk about american metal and stuff but to my metal and rock friends out there, i suggest visual kei! since i know pretty men are a huge interest (and of course the music) here are some of my favorite pretty men and recommended songs from my favorite bands! 🖤

what is visual kei?

“visual kei is a music scene and movement that originated in japan during the late 1980s, influenced by glam rock and other 1980's rock music styles.” (i looked it up because i couldn’t form words myself lol)

toshiya (bass) - dir en grey

i had a HUGE obsession with this man!!

i love this song but they also have more scream metal type songs as well!

hyde (vocalist) - l’arc en ciel

bye where do i even begin with this man. he’s so sexy with short hair but his LONG HAIR?

SMASH‼️

they’re a soft rock kind of band and absolutely awesome! also hyde is such a tease bye

mana (lead guitarist) - malice mizer

there’s a change you’ve seen him or gackt before because malice mizer is one of the most popular vkei bands. they’ve gone through a couple lineup changes, therefore their music style changed (rip gaz and kami ily 🖤) they’re not together anymore unfortunately but i love them. also, if you like concerning individuals i suggest looking up gackt ☠️ i’m gonna put a couple songs with each vocalist (they’ve had 3 lmao) their overall theme is classic rock/goth!

ryutaro (vocalist) - plastic tree

I NEED HIM HE IS SO PRETTY

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SONG. it’s one of my favorite songs of all time! they’re a soft rock/grunge band, that’s how i’d describe it? i dunno.

NOW ARE YALL READY

ARE YOU?

atsushi sakurai (vocalist) - buck tick

MY MAN MY MAN MY FUCKING MAN STOP

LISTEN TO THIS SONG YOU WONT REGRET

THERE WILL BE A PART TWO‼️

@chaotic-good-mom-friend @soup-for-ghosts @justagingerwithredhair hey would you three be interested in knowing my favorite pieces of music from resolve so far. of course you would

youtube

Overture to Pursuit is just. oagsggsgagzubsxjjsjSFXVSHXUVZJEBXUSH ITS SO GOOD. I DONT KNOW WHAT EMOTION IT MAKES ME FEEL BUT ITS A GOOD ONE. its so tense… and the lil snippet of ryu’s ‘objection!’ theme in it is just. i love it so so much

it sounds so tense yet hopeful… like you’re on the very precipice of solving the mystery, and you know that if you just keep pursuing it you’ll find the answer you seek……

youtube

shock and suprise! the guy who loves Enoch Drebber also loves his theme, The Link Between Science and Magic! Who could’ve foreseen this!

just. where do I even start with this. The lil rhythmical tickings in the song…. the typewriter clicks and dings… its an absolute treat for the ears and it fits Drebber like a (clockwork) glove. I couldnt imagine a more fitting theme for the absolute enigma that is Enoch.

youtube

If you ever want me to start crying all you have to do is play Susato Mikotoba ~ Serenade and give me about two minutes. it’s so gentle and calming… I feel a sense of nostalgia for something ive never experienced when I listen to this <-most likely not a comprehendible sentence but its how I feel.

susato is such an important character to me and her theme everything I could’ve asked for

youtube

speaking of Susa- I MEAN who’s that this is a completely different character obviously. Ryutaro Naruhodo ~ Objection! IS A CONTENDER FOR ONE OF MY FAVORITE THEMES SO FAR ITS SO TRIUMPHANT AND POWERFUL AND I LOVE IT A LOT. SUSATO RYUTARO STAYS WINNING WITH HER HIS THEMES THEY’RE ALL AMAZING. THIS MADE CASE 2-1 FOR ME

annnnd while this last one isnt a resolve exclusive I still want to include it :3

youtube

Dance Of Deduction (Type C) (I am NOT calling this ‘joint reasoning’ get outta here) is the cherry on top of the Dances of Deduction…… its so unbelievably catchy and I always get so excited when I hear because!!!! it means we’re getting close!!!!!! we’re gonna crack this mystery wide open!!!!!!

in conclusion i love this game so so much and am very prepared for it it rip my heart out

Hi! I just found your blog and your TGAAC liveblog, and I'm reading through it right now! GAA2 is tied for my favorite Ace Attorney game with AA6 and AAI2, and I'm really happy to see more people enjoying it!

Do you have a favorite part so far?

Howdy! I am definitely absolutely loving this game(s)! To the point that... it's very tough to choose a favorite part. I guess if I narrow it down to the second game, then that helps a little bit. But it's still really tough... Susato as Ryutaro is absolutely incredible, and her return has already been amazing. I also have gleaned from some tags on my posts that apparently there's a chunk of people who don't like 2-2 much, but I really enjoyed it. Admittedly the timeline jump back to the middle of the previous game caught me off guard but I had a lot of fun with the characters, and there's actually one line of Shamspeare's that I've been saving because I have a feeling it'll be kind of key to my overall impression of the whole game, so it definitely ties in with the themes. So far, 2-3 has been lots of fun as well, and I am having INTENSE SUSPICIONS and am poised to freak out about a couple of things coming up...

Okay, I said just the second game would be easiest and then got excited about all three cases so far... and am fighting back the urge to gush about all sorts of various characters. I think perhaps one of my favorite scenes in game 2 is tied between Ryutaro's excellent takedown of Menimemo's hypocrisy (I also love the way it ties in to the overall themes)... and the bits I've most recently played where she and Ryunosuke are reunited. Their friendship is so so so lovely. .....Also the scene where Olive admits to what she's done. It was super badass and sad. ...Also also Herlock being stupid. I have a special place in my heart for all of his antics.

#tgaa #ifbench #replies #man. reminded again that i really GOTTA find some way to do aai2 #i've heard many good things about it #another thing i really enjoy about tgaa as a whole is that the cases don't ALWAYS end in death? still mostly but a bit of variety is fun #that and mechanics like the jury system and the dance of deductions are SO fun

Magical girl/magical boy transformation names for the main TGAA characters

Based on every outfit they have. I have nothing to say for myself, I just love fun epic names and magical transformations. @prringlecan, thank you for encouraging me /gen

The wearers of Yumei uniforms have the same formula:

Ryunosuke - Disciple of Words (as he’s an English language student), later Disciple of Truth

Kazuma - Disciple of Truth (law student)

Ryutaro - Blossom of Truth (first time as a law student plus the general flower theming)

As does the Baker Street pair:

Herlock - Enthralling Mind (maybe this is too straightforward. But I mean, other characters do think “I want to put him in a jar” thoughts about him)

Iris - Novel Heart (employs both the “new”, as she’s an inventor, and the “book” meanings of “novel”. “Heart” is for her design and her personality)

And we can’s forget:

Susato - Flowering Word (flower imagery, of course, and “word” comes from the meaning of her last name. As a whole it symbolizes Susato being eloquent and uplifting)

For the prosecutors "strike” is the word they have in common because they’re the “attack” side, both are swordfighters, we call the court penalties strikes and it’s just a cool word:

Barok - Midnight Strike (for his “creature of the night” theming and him supposedly “moonlighting” as a murderer)

Kazuma - Sunrise Strike (for "Land of the Rising Sun” and to contrast with Barok)

And all DLC costumes have “New World” in the name, as they’re outfits from a different country:

Ryunosuke - New World Spark (the trademark shape of AA logos that is present in his costume)

Susato - New World Bloom (this one refers to her theme song’s name in particular)

Herlock - New World Chord (Herlock’s costume doesn’t have musical theming, but he himself does. The key part of his outfit is how it’s a mix of many things, and a chord is a group of notes)

Today's translation #160

Yuri!!! on Life official guidebook, Tominaga Keisuke/Matsushiba Taku/Umebayashi Taro, Commentary on all musical composition in Yuri!!! on Ice

On love ~Agape~

Yuri Plisetsky/SP Umebayashi Taro

Umebayashi Taro

　It was decided that we are going to use boy soprano, and exactly what the role of this piece in the story is going to be, so I composed the music in accordance with those focus points. Composing this piece with "trying not to relay too much on the approach usually used with religious music" as a theme was a fun experience to me.

Tominaga Keisuke

　After the instrumental demo was finished, we started working on the Latin lyrics, but working out the accents and how to make them compatible with the melody was really tough. With Matsushiba-kun acting as a guide, we were often visiting Latin language specialist, Miyagi-sensei's office (Waseda Univ.) - now it's a very fond memory. Boy soprano, Sugiyama Ryutaro-kun, as well, took a lot of time, with permission from his guardians, to record the song again and again, perfecting his performance. The same thing can be said about all the compositions we produced, but we were able to finish them only thanks to enormous efforts of a lot of people involved in the production.

fun guys weeeee

Ryutaro I think is terrifyingly good at doing his eye makeup. He can get effortlessly sharp lines very quickly and it IS an intimidation tactic.

Shekel brought up the comparison of him and Shiver from splatoon and I can’t stop thinking about it. I think he would really like Anarchy Rainbow and would try to learn Shiver’s dance for fun. Maybe he learns lots of dance choreos in his free time. It’s fun and makes him feel nice. Also keeping with the splatoon theme, I think if he played it he would probably be a charger or Luna blaster main. I don’t know why the Luna blaster specifically I just feel it in my bones.

I think he’s also very knowledgeable about tea. Of course a lot of that has to do with fortune telling with tea leaves n everything but he also just really likes tea. Whenever he buys it he likes to get a kind he hasn’t tried before. I imagine he likes to share with Tobio and Tetsuya. Ryutaro really likes jasmine, Tobio likes chamomile and earl grey, and tetsuya like mint green tea. Tobio takes his with a lot of sugar and tetsuya loads his with honey. Ryutaro for some reason has an inhuman pain tolerance and can drink it while it’s still scorching hot and it scares the other two.

Dynamis I don’t really have much for (mostly because I just don’t remember that much about his character bsjsjsbsjs) but I’ll see.

I think that he would try to convince people that although he has a big passion for astrology, he’s not that into zodiac signs and everything, but he definitely has the birth charts of everyone he knows memorized. He has an interest in mythology and the development of it in history. He knows some neat facts about repeating themes and details in different mythos and stuff like that. He probably knows a lot about different religions and really likes learning about their ideals and where they come from.

He’s more of a listener than a talker and is always willing to try something at least once. He’s hesitant to change personally but likes seeing other peoples view points.

Dashan manages to be very socially smart and cunning and somehow very dense at the same time. He’s very empathetic and aware of how people feel a lot of the time but is also very stubborn and kind of stupid sometimes. I imagine there have been MANY times where someone was VERY obviously into him and tried to flirt with him and he just. didn’t pick it up. like at all. Chao Xin thinks it’s hilarious. He’s usually the one who has to point it out to him.

He values discipline a lot and considers his one act of rebellion to be when he got his piercings. He thinks piercings are really cool and probably has researched a lot into other ones but he values his public appearance too much to get any more than the ones he already has.

In their shot at the end of shogun steel, if you look closely enough, Chi Yun actually has some piercings too I think and my personal hc is that he got them because he thinks Dashan’s are cool and because he admires him a lot, wanted to match him. Chao Xin was the one who helped him pierce his ears and teased him a lot the whole time. Chi Yun refuses to admit that he got them because of Dashan but Dashan thinks it’s sweet.

33 and 43?

From the AA ask meme!

Sorry it took me so long to answer these! I had to think for a while haha

33. Favourite sibling dynamic?

If we're talking simply the dynamic, then I love myself a classic Phoenix and Maya. they're just two goofs who also sometimes solve massive murder cases!!! also he buys her burgers.

If you’re talking about actual siblings then Mia and Maya 🥲

43. Favourite OST?

The Great Detective’s Morose Mood Oh boy. Oh boy.

As you probably already know I am a massive music nerd and this was the most difficult question you could have possibly asked me.

If we're talking about which game I think has the best music, then for me it's DGS (1+2) hands down. There's just something about a live orchestra creating a 19th century feel that hits so different. The use of various traditional Japanese instruments for the Japanese characters and then heavy use of the accordion for British characters- I could go on for hours about any individual track.

If we're talking about a specific song... then I'm afraid I simply cannot choose. And believe me, I tried. Literally thought about this for days.

So! As a compromise, I'm going to list a whole bunch of my favs!

Pursuit ~ Cornered

Turnabout Sisters

Godot ~ The Fragrance of Dark Coffee

Mask deMasque ~ Pleeeeease Listen!

Luke Atmey ~ I Just Want Love

Furio Tigre ~ Swingin’ Tiger

Pursuit ~ Lying Coldly

Elegance... and Excellence

Herlock Sholmes ~ The Great Detective of Foggy London Town

Pursuit ~ The Great Turnabout

Iris Wilson ~ The Young Biographer

Partners ~ The Game Is Afoot! (especially the arrangement!)

ALL the Dance of Deduction themes

Ryutaro Naruhodo ~ Objection!

Enoch Drebber ~ Rondo of Science and Magic

Overture to Aventure/Overture to Resolve

whoops didn’t mean to make this as long as this but i just love AA music!!!

#thanks for asking!#ace attorney #ask meme

Sub Ryutaro’s chant “Demon Disperse!” VS Dub Ryutaro’s “Good luck come my way!”

I think bother for fun. “Demon Disperse” is like all the exorcism themes and plots throughout anime and real-life mythology, of dispelling and repelling malware and malcontents

Enter the Enigmatic World of Serial Experiments Lain: A Mind-Bending Journey That Defies Conventional Reality

"Prepare to Question Your Perception of Existence as 'Lain Anime' Unleashes its Intriguing Narrative"

Want an anime series that dives into the complexities of the digital age? Serial Experiments Lain is a must-watch! With its deep exploration of technology, consciousness, and existentialism, it's an intellectually stimulating journey that will leave you craving more. This 13-episode series, set in a near-future world, explores the fusion of technology and humanity in a way that will challenge your understanding of the world around you. Serial Experiments Lain tackles themes of identity, isolation, and the impact of the digital age on human interactions. In the realm of anime, where creativity knows no bounds, one series stands out for its unparalleled ability to challenge our perception of reality. 'Lain Anime,' a groundbreaking cyberpunk psychological thriller, has captivated audiences worldwide, sparking intense debates and leaving viewers with more questions than answers. If you're seeking a mind-bending adventure that pushes the boundaries of imagination, this is a series you cannot afford to miss. 'Lain Anime' invites viewers into the labyrinthine mind of its enigmatic protagonist, Lain Iwakura, a seemingly ordinary high school girl who becomes entangled in a complex web of technology, consciousness, and identity. Directed by Ryutaro Nakamura and released in 1998, the series eerily predicted the influence of the internet and its potential consequences on human existence. What sets 'Lain Anime' apart from its contemporaries is its unrelenting exploration of philosophical concepts and the nature of reality. As the story unfolds, viewers are pulled into a world where the line between the digital and physical realms blurs. The series poses thought-provoking questions about the relationship between humans and technology, the impact of virtual spaces on personal identity, and the very essence of what it means to exist. The visual style of 'Lain Anime' further adds to its allure. The distinct combination of dark and moody backgrounds with sporadic bursts of vibrant and surreal imagery engulfs viewers in a visually captivating experience. The series' artistic direction, coupled with its haunting soundtrack, creates an atmosphere that will keep you on the edge of your seat, awaiting the next twist in the narrative. However, 'Lain Anime' is not for the faint of heart. Its complex storyline, layered symbolism, and fragmented narrative demand active engagement from its viewers. Each episode serves as a piece of a larger puzzle, and it is through careful observation and contemplation that the full picture begins to emerge. The series challenges its audience to interpret the hidden meanings and unravel the intricate threads that bind the story together. In addition to its philosophical depth, Lain Anime delves into themes of isolation, social alienation, and the all-consuming power of technology. It forces us to reflect on the implications of our increasing reliance on the digital world and the potential dangers it poses to our sense of self and interpersonal connections. The legacy of 'Lain Anime' cannot be overstated. It continues to inspire and influence contemporary works of art, literature, and even academia. Its exploration of the human psyche and the interplay between technology and consciousness remains as relevant today as it was at the turn of the millennium. So, if you find yourself yearning for an intellectual challenge, a thought-provoking experience that lingers long after the screen fades to black, 'Lain Anime' is the answer. Brace yourself for a journey that will ignite your curiosity, shatter your perceptions, and leave you questioning the very fabric of reality itself. In the enigmatic world of 'Lain Anime,' the only limit is your own imagination.

"Serial Experiments Lain" incorporates elements of cyberpunk and psychological horror, resulting in a unique and unsettling viewing experience that lingers in the minds of its audience long after the final episode. "Lain" has gained a cult following over the years due to its innovative storytelling and its willingness to challenge conventional narrative structures. It remains a significant and influential piece of anime history, deserving of a spot on any anime enthusiast's watchlist. Read the full article

btw I rly like madame tuspells. she is very pretty too bad she’s french

#she’s really nice though and I like her design #kt plays dgs #oh wait this new pursuit theme is fun :0 #not as riveting as the first but I like the quiet determination….#oh nvm hehe it’s the prelude to pursuit track #speaking of the ost it’s interesting that they included the unused tracks for the dgs2 ost on Spotify #idk if those have always been there I haven’t looked on purpose #I peaked just now but I haven’t seen anything from the titles that would spoil me yet #also the albums on Spotify are called the grand performance recordings… but they’re not the love ones I wonder why they call it that #maybe for fun? did they remaster it or something #I didn’t look at it too much before and now the titles have all been translated to English so idk what it was like before #I like that since susato got to say objection! and hold it! during her time as ryutaro she conveniently has those voice files on hand now #and they’re creating opportunities for her to say it during court as ryuu’s assistant :))#I mean obviously I would love if she was even more involved but I like that she gets to use her voice more

elyvorg’s Great Ace Attorney Liveblog - Cases 2-1 & 2-2

This is a transcript of a liveblog that I originally did on Discord, having played a fan translation of the first game years ago and knowing a spoiler for the second game. I do not recommend following along with this on your first playthrough!

[[Please also bear in mind that I’ve long since finished the game by now, so if past-me wildly misinterprets something here (and I often did), no need to correct me, I already know!]]

Live reactions: 2-1, beginning

elyvorg

- ooooooh we get to play as Susato being a lawyer, that's cool!!!

- Miss Brett's been murdered?!?!

- I totally assumed that was her father's grave she was visiting, not Kazuma's

Bench

Yep, twists right off the bat!

elyvorg

I did vaguely suspect the Susato thing, because I'd seen some art that implies you get to play as a female lawyer in GAA2, but I doubted they'd introduce somebody new for the second half of the story, so I was like, hmmmm what if that's Susato pretending to be a guy because sexism

her dad looks... fine... not ill at all... ¬.¬

huh for a second I thought she'd be defending her dad, heh

guess he's more like the assistant role here

:3 it's Susato's best friend! everybody in this game has friends (please let Kazuma still be alive)

Bench

Friendship!

elyvorg

susato you'll be fiiine, you understood this law thing way better than Ryunosuke ever did in his first case

oh no she's picked up the nervous darting eyes from him xD

yes, look, judge, "Ryutaro" has the same nervous eyes as his "cousin", this is completely legit

elyvorg

...the fact that Ryunosuke was studying English at university sure helps to explain why he's so fluent in it, dunno why they didn't establish that fact sooner

okay so Brett definitely never got on the ship during case 2, shushhhh there goes that theory

(did somebody murder the swan, too? D: )

she asked to go to the bathing spot before leaving, something's definitely Up with that

she just kept working at the university? geez, Japan's judicial system

Auchi it was really more Kazuma who humiliated you, not Ryunosuke, you know

yes, Hosonaga, the best disguise

also Soseki!

love how some instinct in Susato's brain feels she needs to slam herself backwards into the wall exactly like Ryunosuke does when damning evidence is presented

these newspapers always know how to have a conveniently relevant story on the back page, I see

...how am I stumped on the second testimony of the tutorial case

okay surely it's one hell of a leap to assume that the defendant saw the victim having been horribly stabbed and, rather than anything else, immediately thought the blade must have been poisoned

(also admittedly I didn't realise examining the back of the paper had given me a whole separate article that I could read properly for detailed info, so I, um, hadn't)

ohhhh there's a tiny slit in the back of the hut just behind the stool she was sitting on, that's how the real killer stabbed her

wild jump to conclusions for now - is the killer the photographer???

A+ pun name on this guy

also those sure are some initials, huh!

yesssss we're still on the trust theme, please don't ever stop having this be a thing

government secrets being leaked? hmmm how about that

she "swanned in", pfft I bet she did xD

surely stabbing someone in the back is pretty fatal anyway and whether the blade was poisoned doesn't matter that much?

but since there was clearly poison there, probably on the fountain pen instead, right

and it's definitely the reporter's pen, he's looking very guilty about now

looks like we have here another case of someone being subtly poisoned and then being mortally wounded in some other big obvious way so that the defendant ends up looking like they did it that way! the irony.

Bench

Parallels!

elyvorg

...she didn't say "remember me" while she was dying, did she

oh god she probably did

that's an awkward punny name to have when you're a defendant

...no? did she really not? Did I just galaxy-brain that but it's not what they're actually going with?

haha, she even drank the poison through carbonated water!

is this guy really just a lone vigilante, or was there something more secret behind his motives?

(or, is the poison not actually in the pen, and she killed herself?)

aww, double Susato Takedown!!!

hmm, it does seem to be a random impulsive act of vigilantism rather than anything worthy of greater conspiracy theories

I'm also spotting some themes of people becoming the very kind of monsters they claim to hate.

excuse me, Auchi, you have literally zero right to use the sad Kazuma music, how dare you D:<

oooooooh the plot thickens, Susato's dad is in on some Conspiracies, I suspected he might be in some way

he has something to do with Kazuma's death??? the Japanese people don't know Kazuma died? (but Susato was visiting his grave, surely there was some kind of funeral service on the Japan end, then?)

waaaiiit, I heard the name Jigoku before in the previous game, can't remember the exact context (but it was probably just Mikotoba)

YEAH I thought it was weird that Soseki mentioned he was involved in two cases in Britain??????

Bench

: >

Thoughts on Menimino?

elyvorg

Nothing special really; he's your average Wacky AA Character

wish he'd given us more of The Dirt, I am itching to unravel this conspiracy

Bench

You'll see in due time. Also, before I forget, thoughts on McGuilded and Graydon in 1?

elyvorg

Uhhh. I've already talked about how it was neat to be duped into trusting McGilded in case 3 and then whoops he's a massive scumbag. Graydon is... very hammy and ridiculous. I remember feeling a bit weird about him on the first time through, because he didn't really seem like a Final Case killer, but then that's because it wasn't the final case actually, just the halfway point. I guess I kind of appreciate his tragic backstory a little but I'm pretty indifferent to him overall.

Bench

Ah, ok!

elyvorg

Do you have any thoughts on them you want to share that wouldn't be a spoiler to me?

Bench

I found the dichotomy between the two really interesting, and also paralleling Menimino a bit. Graydon hated McGuilded so much, murdered him, becoming the monster he hated. Just like Menimino.

Also, Ashley Graydon manipulating his childhood friends made me seethe.

elyvorg

It is cute that those two dorky thieves were his friends when they were kids, alas. And yeah, I enjoyed the Menimemo/Graydon parallel, it's neat.

Interim thoughts

elyvorg

I suppose I'll mention for the record that this focus Susato's getting has rekindled my terror that the friendshipping blog was actually just excited about a Susato reunion and not a Kazuma one. D:

AND YET. I can't let go of the thought that, if I really did make up the concept of Kazuma being not-actually-dead out of nowhere because I jumped to conclusions about something unrelated... it's such a weird coincidence that, of all the deaths of any victim in an AA game ever, this one particular death of a very important character happens to have a bunch of little circumstantial things around it that suggest it's possible it could have been faked. That doesn't usually happen in Ace Attorney! Usually a victim is very decidedly dead!

It just... still feels possible, despite that I have absolutely no concrete proof, not even from the "spoiler" I thought I had. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Live reactions: 2-2, beginning

elyvorg

wait, so are we doing the Hound of the Baskervilles case now?

huh, this flashback case did have a court appearance! I assumed it didn't because the narration in case 5 said he hadn't taken any more cases in the two months since he defended Soseki... but I guess that's still technically true, now, isn't it, the sneaks.

Bench

Hehehe.

elyvorg

yesssss Great Deduction time

man I love how these are such utter nonsense in the beginning that you can't begin to fathom how they'd actually make sense in the end

HE ATE A BAR OF SOAP AND KILLED HIMSELF, yes, very logic, much deduction

Bench

That one is one of my favorites.

elyvorg

it's pretty great so far. Loved Ryunosuke's expression when Sholmes was suddenly all "Of course, nobody would be stupid enough as to eat soap!"

The failure dialogues for these are more elaborate in this game! In the first one, Ryunosuke had some unique (and often very ridiculous) dialogue where he argued that [random thing] totally solved the mystery, but then the part where Sholmes shot him down was always one of the same three generic exchanges each time. This game, the bits with Sholmes shutting him down are also unique to each thing! I'm going to have so much fun failing these repeatedly.

Bench

I need to replay this and fail everything.

elyvorg

you do, highly recommend

Bench

Thank you for letting me know about this!

elyvorg

interesting twist that this particular Great Deduction ends up implicating our defendant in the murder!

It was really Ryunosuke's incriminating deduction, not Sholmes's!

also, the biggest mystery that remains unsolved is why the heck was there a bar of soap on a plate on his table

why is there so much soap

Bench

Hehehe

elyvorg

...WOW everyone's really gotta stop assuming people are dead without checking!!!!

(but I do very appreciate the fact that victims not actually being dead is apparently a running theme in this game, hmmmmmmmm how about that!!!!!)

Bench

Introducing the most animated character in the franchise:

elyvorg

oh boy

you know, I did think it weird when we found him "dead". He seemed far too wacky a character to just be a random victim and not have to deal with cross-examining him in court.

I am amused by the notion that Soseki and Shamspeare were effectively having a friendly Shakespeare fandom debate.

feel like this might be no attempted murder at all, but rather something about problems with the gas lamps causing people to pass out and such.

(currently have no idea why this case is so Important and Secret, though! hm)

"curious disdain for us Japanese" listen I know van Zieks has an actual reason for it, but have you not noticed that most people in this country have a disdain for the Japanese, it's called racism

hello, Old Bailey, can we please select the jury from a pool of people bigger than, like twenty xD

oh, the repeat jury is on purpose this time, huh.

(that doesn't feel... like how it'd actually work. not that I'd know.)

okay, that is not gas poisoning, huh

pffft the "Romeo vs Juliet" debate was a literal mock fight, these dorks

does he make fake coins out of soap to use in the gas meter?

(and, to be fair, what does this have to do with the poisoning, really)

A DRONE BEE, to go with queen bee!!!

man that guy's name pun was stumping me for ages

(yes, very important Lawyer Things I've been pondering during this trial)

Oh, huh, a second day! Wasn't expecting this case to do that, since not even case 5 in the previous game did.

Interim thoughts

elyvorg

while I take a break in the case, status update on my Spoiler-Feelings Rollercoaster: starting to lean back towards it being about Kazuma after all. Having this case with Ryunosuke and Susato hanging out solving crimes like normal makes it feel like their actual upcoming reunion in the present isn't going to be anything worth getting that excited about even if you really dig their friendship, because the player doesn't feel like they've been apart that long, thanks to this. That and this case marks the at-least-second time the victim's been not actually dead despite everyone on the scene assuming so at first glance hhhhggghhh

Live reactions: 2-2, second investigation day

elyvorg

van Zieks always has a concrete alibi for all the deaths linked to him... hmm yeah that really does sound like somebody else is doing it on his behalf, huh.

Sholmes knows what went down with van Zieks but won't tell us, huhhh!

did Soseki just imply that the person who died in his room was one of van Zieks's "victims"? oohhh

HOW HAVE I NOT SPRAYED EVERYTHING IN THIS ROOM YET

god this is the stupidest thing to be stuck on, it literally will not let me stop spraying but I MUST have sprayed everything like ten times by now, what the fuck

UGHHHH I literally had to look in a playthrough to see exactly where I needed to spray, HOW is it so freaking sensitive, please don't make me do this again, game

cat!

oh hey, they named it Wagahai, not Soseki

so it turns out the animators are halfway decent at animating a cat and now I'm sad we never saw Nina's kitty friend in person

did Soseki just imply that the person who died in his room was one of van Zieks's "victims"? oohhh

welp, never mind, too recent for that actually

Shamspeare wants Soseki's room for the treasure, presumably; did he kill the previous lodger and is now trying to get Soseki found guilty for his own attempted murder in order to do so? yikes.

yeah he really does seem wacky and fishy enough to be The Culprit of this case, somehow, despite also technically being the victim

Duncan Ross... Duncan Ross... where the hell is the pun, this guy has a normal name, how can that be

Great Deduction, by any chance? :D

...no? no, perhaps best not to be that silly about someone almost committing suicide, huh.

aww, this poor woman, I want to help her :(

stopping at the end of the second investigation day for tonight!

Interim thoughts

elyvorg

okay actually, am still stopped here, but some more Thoughts for now, because there was another Kazuma Feelings scene in that investigation that had a few more little tidbits in it. They hinted more strongly than before (or I just didn't pick up on it before) that the "something very important" Kazuma wanted to do in Britain was effectively to "strike down evil", aka what his sword's about. Which makes sense; I imagined it might be something like that. Ryunosuke also brought up that he suspects that that's actually always been more important to Kazuma than his stated goal of reforming Japan's legal system... almost like the law goal was really just an excuse this whole time, and the real reason he wanted the exchange trip so much was his secret mission?

Which is all really interesting stuff about Kazuma's character... and what gets me is that, like, none of this matters if Kazuma really is dead and we're never going to hear from him again. This isn't just a plot hook for the sake of Ryunosuke and the upcoming mysteries he'll be unravelling, because it doesn't matter in that context which goal was Kazuma's priority; this is a character hook about Kazuma, and that has to mean something please let it mean something

Live reactions: 2-2, second trial day

elyvorg

wwwwwelp guess who's so hyperfixated she got half as much sleep as she should have done

it's almost like I have a suspicion about what part of the game I may or may not be able to reach today

but first! Time to finish case 2.

Woo! I was half worried that there somehow would be strychnine in the tea and we'd have to figure that out.

heh, does van Zieks have a Godot-style "X cups per trial" rule

...oh no. If the strychnine was on the gas lamp that he uses to try and kill the lodger in the other room, did Olive Green do it? D:

ohhhh she would have had to poison the pipes the day she was stabbed! And then Shamspeare didn't need to blow into the pipes for the next few days because Soseki had been arrested!

that's some neat interconnection and I'm very glad I did actually replay case 1-4, wow.

but wait then if she did do it on the night of the stabbing that doesn't explain where she got the poison from, hm

and also Soseki wasn't arrested until the day after the stabbing

aaaaaaagh she was gonna strychnine herself too, that's such a horrible way to go, this poor woman

I would say "The Slug and Salad" is an amusingly unfortunate pub name, but... I have actually seen a pub in England called something like "The Slug's Lettuce", so, apparently that's pretty accurate and not just a joke.

oh no look who's breaking character now that he's under pressure ;P

I'm a little confused, though, because wasn't Olive heading south down the road when she was stabbed? Meaning, from the pub to the victim's room? So she can't have broken in there and poisoned it before she got stabbed, surely?

ah, there's the reason he didn't attempt to murder Soseki the night of the stabbing! yeah, the rest of the timing adds up now.

i want to give Olive Green a hug, even though she attempted murder. :(

Bench

I felt the same way. I like to imagine that, at the very least, her sentence was relatively light.

elyvorg

I hope so!

(though she did at one point say something like "I don't want to be sent to the gallows for the likes of this guy", which... D: )

Bench

...I'll take that as her exaggerating.

elyvorg

Let's hope so.

wow Sholmes's indicator solution is pretty magic if it can pick up signs of a person touching a thing several months ago, even when other people have touched the thing a lot since

love this small round sad lady full of anger and vengeance

like obviously her attempted murder was wrong, but I love characters who get so broken that they're driven to do something like that

also, was she actually trying to kill herself in the hospital? Or was that an excuse, to hide the fact that she was going to make another attempt to kill him?

the latter seems more likely, really. She did suddenly decide "you know what, guess I'm not gonna suicide after all" for rather little reason for a supposedly-suicidal person.

also, can we talk about the fact that being poisoned with strychnine happens to be a really slow and painful way to go. I wonder if that's why she picked this particular poison, or if it's just that it's conveniently also a poison that works in very small amounts?

Oh! The judge said she'd be "stripped of her freedom as punishment", so it sounds like she is just getting prison and not execution, that's good.

oh huh I guess it was a suicidal moment after all

which makes a lot of sense given the whole being-an-attempted-murderer thing

yes, it is a blessing he didn't die, for the sake of his would-have-been-killer, isn't it *stares intently in the direction of Nikolina*

Awww, she smiled! Didn't think we'd be getting an Ace Attorney Smile(TM) from her!

this is the collar of the "Hound of the Baskervilles", perhaps?

oh huh, the Great Exhibition's not going to be case 5? They'd been hyping it up so much I assumed it had to be a Final Case thing.

...

THE RETURN OF THE GREAT DEPARTED SOUL

WELL THAT SURE IMPLIES A THING OR TWO DOESN'T IT

(still do not confirm or deny for me, but)

!!!!!!!!!!!

and here's the other thing! a thing about the Spoiler I got that I never mentioned until now...

one thing I'm pretty sure I remember about it is that the blog was very excited that It's Going To Happen In Case 3

(it's going to happen in case 3!!!!!!!! i am equally excite)

(this is why I got half as much sleep last night)

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

now to take a break and Attempt to have some lunch while I flail internally

other thing I'm glad I did: make a point of not checking the case title cards of the second game at any point. It feels most right to have had this Moment immediately before beginning the case and no sooner.

Bench

Good choice.

I also like how its title is a callback to case GAA1-1.

elyvorg

Oh right, the Great Departure! Yeah, neat.

Bench

Next case is my second favorite in the franchise so far! Hope you enjoy it!

Link to original interview

Translation: -

“Hold Your Breath” Interview – Awesome Mag

When you read the script, what kind of feeling did you have?

- Even though each episode is only 30 minutes long, I was amazed that changes of the characters feelings were well depicted. Actually I’ve known, the director, Nakagawa Ryutaro, a long time, we’re really close but this is the first time working together. But, that’s why it was really interesting to be give a role like that this time.

How did you and director Nakagawa become friends?

- That was so long ago I can’t remember. He had a very clear idea of ‘I want to make a piece of art like this’. He’s written many plots for me in the past. Only, all of them are epic works that cost a lot of money. (laughs). So, we haven’t been able to get to that point until now. Now, getting to work together for the first time, I’m really happy.

In this work you play Miyashita Shinpei, a part time worker moving from one place to another, currently working as a rubbish collector. What did you think of the character?

- The director really knows me well. I thought Shinpei’s sarcastic and slightly subservient side is like mine. The drama doesn’t depict this, but the role of Shinpei has a backstory. He grew up in a town with a lot of delinquents around him, and he’s been in juvenile detention for hurting someone because of his sense of justice. In the drama there’s no word of that, but that’s why he’s so subservient. But he’s not a gloomy person, so he had a girlfriend. He’s not violent at all. Shinpei’s distance from society in general, I think he’s not that far from me? I thought that.

In just 30 minutes, I felt that the changes in the human heart were expressed well.

- Yes, that’s right. In that short space of time, it’s great that’s where the focus is.

In this work you co-star with Adachi Yumi, how was it to work together?

- I thought she was a very mature person. Even if our skin made physical contact, there was a certain distance between us.

At first glance, it seems that the two have nothing in common, but actually they are very similar in their loneliness and their need for humanity. I felt a tightness in my chest watching it.

- The character Adachi-san played is facing conflicts that Shinpei doesn’t know about and Shinpei can’t understand her, and he also has his own conflicts, this relationship is very strange, isn’t it? But, when you watch, it opens up the imagination. I think that’s really good. By the way, for me, I’m not very good with feature length films.

If that’s so, this is a very suitable film!

- It’s really great. I’m sure people will be able to watch in their spare time, I’d be happy if everyone could see it.

Well, now that you’ve depicted the world of the ‘Corona disaster’, Murakami-san, what kind of change of heart did this have on you?

- Actually, I didn’t have much of a change of heart. Of course, I saw other actors around me starting to send out messages and make moves, and it’s not that I didn’t feel a sense of crisis. Instead, I’m the type who always has a sense of crisis. Not just at this time, Japan is also an earthquake country, I believe it can happen at any time.

During the STAY HOME period, what did you do?

- I’ve only been watching foreign dramas. I thought I’d take the opportunity to read some plays and stuff, but no. (laughs). As expected, I had to stick with what fit for me.

Ahaha, but that’s the truth isn’t it?

- I think so. Also, after the corona disaster, I wanted to make sure to put some care into what’s been difficult. Even if it’s useless to do so, I want to put in that time. That’s because, lately, I’ve been desperately focused on what is in front of me, I don’t feel like I’m looking far enough. And while there’s merit to this, only facing the task at hand has it’s disadvantages. Of course, that’s not wrong either.

You need to have an open mind*, you mean?

- I think so. It’s gone a bit. I think that’s a very bad thing, so I want to be aware of that in my life.

Now, you’ve had the pleasure to work with director Nakagawa, is there anything you’d like to do in the future?

- I’ve received many love letters from director Nakagawa. They’re on letterheads, and they’re full of my good points, and about what he wants to make. There are a lot of things that seem difficult to achieve, but if there’s a director who wants that much from me, I hope we can achieve this together.

(Additional question)

Common theme music column: A song to wake up to in the morning

- Utada Hikaru: ‘Beautiful World’

- I’ve never properly listened to Utada Hikaru before. But, when I watched the film ‘Shin Evangelion’ I was hooked. Since it’s newly written, it has a very strong world view of the film, but it’s a lovely song, it’s very good to listen to in the morning, I think.

*Translation note: Here I struggled with the correct wording to use, and after receiving some advice, I’ve discovered the best way to describe this is more like ‘space/luxury to look ahead’, as in the time to pause allowed for some space to think. I’ve kept ‘open mind’ in the wording here, but I think Nijiro’s answer makes more sense if you also take the full context into consideration.
