literally just wanted an excuse to draw all my favorite little AA guys so I made a template to put them in :]
(templates under cut!)
A few transparency variations. Customize freely, no need to credit the template! (though I'd love to see if people fill it out!)
ABSOLUTELY do not need to do the full 12, consider the latter 6 a bonus, I'm just not normal. Again, feel free to change the suggested categories to whatever.
Lots of characters take on multiple case roles, so make up your own rules for who goes where :P
🎀Hiya! Can you vote for Uendo Toneido in an official Ace Attorney popularity poll?
You'll need a twitter account to do it, but if you can we'd be suuuuper appreciative of it!
Capcom has said that they're looking into making an AA sequel, so there's a chance this poll might genuinely sway some aspects in the Ace Attorney series! Here's why we'd like you to vote for Uendo:
For those not in the know, basically, Uendo Toneido is an extremely rare example of a positive depiction of a D.I.D. system in a murder mystery genre! Their character largely serves as a way to mock the "Murder Alter Trope", or how systems' alters are always guilty parties in murder mysteries. They do this by setting up a hidden, secret alter, which turns out to be... a harmless timid child!
We, along with many other systems, absolutely adore Uendo... but they can be so much more!
Most of Storyteller revolves around figuring out they're plural. But what would SUPER be wonderful and normalizing is if they appeared in another case and... they're just casually plural! And nobody questions it and it's part of their character! Wouldn't that be lovely?
And at the very least, there's sooooo much good and fun aspects to Uendo you don't need to vote for them just for that!
Like Kisegawa being recognized and respected as a woman!
Or how each alter has cultural history behind them as (basically) fictives of rakugo characters! That was so fun to learn!
We can go on and on, how their design conveys each alter, the nuance of some alters sharing memories, etc. etc.
But basically, we probably wouldn't even have realized we're plural if these dorks didn't come into our life and help normalize the condition for us. And we appreciate them so much for it.
I think there are a few of you who likes my drawing of Uendo & Co, so I'm gonna upload one of my old drawing of Kisegawa.
I imagined Kisegawa struggling from gender dysphoria back in her teens, and I think Geiru might have given Kisegawa a set of feminine kimono, so I drew it!!
I tried to draw the kimono accurately, but just in case I'll say sorry first if it isn't so correct.
Reminder that it's possible to bring y'all's blorbos up without bringing others down. This includes fellow voters. And a reminder that every entry deserves to be on this bracket.
🧵fun fact, whilst Kisegawa is the first confirmed trans character of Ace Attorney, she is NOT the first confirmed LGBT+ character of AA.
That award goes to Lettie Mailer, the speedy orphan girl who delivers everyone’s mail in Professor Layton Vs Phoenix Wright
Lettie had a crush on her best friend, not aware that her friend was a girl pretending to be a boy. She is initially confused, but in the end credits she is explicitly shown to be about to hand a love letter and flowers to the girl.
