Me when i realise i get extra dialog by presenting every single item to every single characters. Btw did you know that detective Hosonaga's coughing is something he does to hide when he is upset? He says so in dgs1-2 if you show him the picture of kazuma's corpse

Holy shit I just realized the common theme between all the tgaa2 cases so far… and it has concerning implications for where this is going! Long post below:
Okay so I have a very long essay in my drafts that I will probably never finish, but basically it talks about how the aa games tend to use similarities between cases to empathize an overarching theme. Usually this is through the relationships between the characters or the way the murder played out, but in the case of tgaa, I find it much more interesting to look at the motives of each case’s killer. In tgaa1, we have:
1-1: ??? (Plot stuff)
1-2: accident/desperation
1-3: Being Evil (basically lol)
1-4: accident
1-5: revenge
So, other than the two accidents, nothing too notable overall. But! Tgaa2, up to the point I’ve played, has this:
2-1: vigilante justice
2-2: revenge
2-3: revenge
Almost universally in revenge! This is a really interesting theme for this game to be focusing on, given that its other major throughline is the slow reveal of a complex crime involving the entire older generation of characters. And with everything this game is hinting at with van Zieks and Kazuma…
Van Zieks and the idea of extralegal justice keeps being brought up with his “Reaper” curse! IMO the most interesting discussion about this idea was when Gina said that he was like God (lol) because he knew who was good and bad on the inside. Given that he has a personal connection to the overarching mystery, it seems like there are plenty of opportunities for this to come into play when the truth is finally revealed, and with him as the defendant in 1-4, they have plenty of room to play with this!
Kazuma’s connection is more tenuous, but there’s a lot of stuff about family legacy there, especially with Karuma being very symbolic of, well, karma. I think there was a line about “the sword that strikes down evil” or something like that… Kazuma is, of course, a Good Person, but there’s enough setup there that if it’s revealed that his father wasn’t actually the killer, I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a “revenge is Bad Actually” arc where we have to convince him not to kill people. If they do this, it will make me a little bit insane! But it would be a very interesting direction for the story to take
Tl;dr tgaa2 seems to be talking about revenge a lot and I think that can lead to some really interesting character moments as the plot moves forward! Excited to see where this will go or if I’m completely wrong

case 2-4 of the great ace attorney chronicles is just live judiciary reaction

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

I was wondering, since you're now starting Apollo Justice: did you play AAI or AAI2? If not, do you plan to?
I played AAI1 over a few months between finishing AA3 and starting AA4, while I was waiting for the AJ port. It was... ok. I was looking forward to it as a big fan of Edgeworth and Franziska, but I found the character writing only so-so, and the puzzles mostly frustrating. I didn't think it was a particularly strong game tbh, but it had funny moments and some of the new characters were fun. I really loved Callisto Yew, and I came to like Kay and Lang as well. I did an overall reaction post when I finished, and I had a separate tag for my AAI liveblogging, if you're curious enough: oodly plays AAI
I haven't played AAI2 yet. At one point, I planned to play both (AND tgaac...) before the 456 port came out but ... lol... I vastly overestimated the speed of my own gaming. I'd like to get there one day, although uh tbh in AAI2's case I'm not sure how the latest emulation implosion lawsuit drama might impact that. I've heard AAI2 is much better than the first, and one of the best in the franchise, so I am curious albeit skeptical after AAI1 and with some of the spoilers I've picked up over the past year. But I plan to give it a shot eventually, assuming I can still get a working English copy somewhere.

genshin impact 4.0, or as i like to call it, fantasy tears of themis ft. lifeweaver overwatch/kale vandelay hfr/mael stronghart tgaac/idk but people are drawing him with that specific kind of face and i love it
liveblog begins now
Get Out Of India And Get Your Ass To France!
People can find my previous liveblog and livetweets for what I think of the Sumeru section. I thought it was great, I loved the heist scene, but *grumbles in desi* you know how one of the most popular (and thirsted after) characters in the west right now is a DARK SKINNED INDIAN SPIDERMAN-
Paimon lore...she got tired, fell in a whirlpool, and got sucked out to sea...
sus.
... Niagara Falls...... somehow geographically across from a desert.... which also ends in a big cliff...
welcome to fontaine. literally just french for "fountain". Looks like any steampunk city but with more blue and stars. God I miss Arcane: A League of Legends story.
Neuvilette. That's the Mael Stronghart looking guy's name.
Lyney and Lynette. They're uh. little guys
we're just normal men.
CAITLYN KIRAMANN ARCANE?!
... Is this Fischl's VA? Has the same smug aura. Also, why are her eyes two different colors? Is she tainted by the Abyss or a Schneznayan puppet or something?
I'm not writing all that down Furina but I don't fuck with celebrities. I only fuck with gods.
She's so grand I hate it.
Tears of Themis 🤝 Genshin Impact Fontaine
I'm too poor and ugly for this shit
FIGHTING GODS?! BITCH I'VE GOT A RESUME
..... what the fuck is happening in this place. first god wants to beat me up, then god wants to battle me in court ace attorney - er, tears of themis style, while the rabble are saying that god-slayer traveler's DUEL would be boring while a COURT battle would be more exciting..... and now there are weird laws
that's not called being absolved of sin that's called climate change
why would you build boats that function like subway trains on giant aqueducts when you could just... make bridges with... okay I guess depending on how you do it, having aqueducts instead of roads could be pretty fast in a world without cars
How many little siblings does this guy HAVE
How many dragons is that now? There was Dvalin, Durin, Ahzdaha, the one Raiden killed, and now the Hydro one. Was there a Dendro one?
You'd think that a HYDRO city would have some kind of STEAM POWER
I love cute engineer girls! Damn, she's just an NPC.
... wh. YOU'RE A GOD OF WATER IN A STEAMPUNK CITY JUST USE HYDRO POWER TURBINES
nothing like getting the Italian mafia to beat up the French mafia
sorry to this guy who has now voiced characters in two games where his fantastic voice work is badly complimented by piss poor lip sync (swank from rain code)
Oh shit are we going to ace attorney childe? that would be really funny. he'd be such an ace attorney witness too
traveler: childe, why are you in fontaine?
childe: depression arc
So these little humanoid dog creatures are "Melusine".
Friends with benefits (the benefits are knowing all their siblings and also theater tickets)
There he is. Mr. Justice man.
Neuvilette: I think she wants you to look at her.
Paimon: Yeah, sure...
Furina: Hehehe~
Traveler: *holds up middle finger at Furina*
Oh he's literally Mael Stronghart
Lyney's VA is pulling out all the stops for this stage magician cutscene
A "bang" right in the middle of a magic show?? For sure we're going to be Ace Attorneying this chapter.
OH YEAH. OH YEAH THATS A CLEAR CASE OF SOMEONE USING STAGE MAGIC TO MURDER LIKE IN DRV3 OR AA6
Paimon puts on Groucho Goggles while quoting Sherlock Holmes. Fun...
Waiting for Rosa Tears of Themis to get isekaid to this universe with a random boy. Because I like Rosa and she's cute. And never alone.
So Lyney's rope was replaced with a flammable one. That explains the murder method, But how did Lyney switch places with Carrow, and where did Halsey disappear to?
Navia, a mob boss. Or a detective. Not sure which.
There's honestly no way they didn't take at least a LITTLE inspiration from Arcane because that's the only steampunk setting I can think of where little furry guys are common. Pookas are in Odin Sphere, but that story isn't exactly steampunk... Well, it is. And supposedly Neuvilette is the only male one.
That's how the trick itself was performed. The audience member basically got put on a giant rotating, moving elevator. So in the middle of it, someone must have hijacked the trick. They forced Halsey out and Cowell in, then escaped with Halsey.
... Lyney didn't hear the thud? How? Why?!
THEY'RE FATUI?!
It literally is the most Ace Attorney sort of thing to ask the judge for a brief recess and then talk with your client who immediately admits to being a Russian spy whose excuse for not being present during a murder scene was that he was doing spy things
yeah I was thinking, it had to be someone from the crew. how else do you tamper with the random number generator and the rope? but the real question is how did he become a victim of his own scene after the fact?
what
this is entirely out of left field. they should have gotten one of the tears of themis writers on this one.
girl your drink was spiked
yeah that was what I was thinking too. the disappeared people are being dissolved and ending up in the fountain somehow
oceanid!
aether: bye pretty oceanid! I'll find your lover for you- OH GOD THERE'S ROBOTS
... Did they honestly watch Arcane and get nothing from it? Looks like they tried to recreate Zaun and missed the fact that Zaun isn't run by women in big hats
girl...
I'm just bored throughout this entire investigation segment and then I learn that the Italian Mafia got arrested for water crimes
We're unwatering the water crimes
I was also wondering if vacher was the one who murdered the oceanid. yeah it was. and looks like we hunted down the mastermind of one piece of the murder plot
sometimes I fear that the gimmick for AA7's prosecutor will be a robot and this is why. at least we get to see the guy go ham again
Oh yeah that guy's girlfriend is in the place where all water flows to, Doyha District the fountain.
... Imagine you're a baliff, and you're at court, and the defendant wants to see his wife who has dissolved into a fountain, and the chief justice helps him, and so the chief justice takes him to the fountain, and then five minutes later the chief justice comes back and says he stuck his face in the fountain and drowned

okay so on case 5 we're told that sholmes and wilson dealt with this case but it's clearly different from the other ones because the manuscript that iris based off on it has been hidden away by sholmes in the pawnshop
so the only people who know about it are sholmes iris and wilson BUT wilson has been murdered in japan by that brett chick in case 1 for reasons then unknown but now we know its definitely tied to that right
EXCEPT susato knows the title of the manuscript so she either somehow simply read the front of the manuscript OR she knows about the entire case and if its the latter she was told either by kazuma and its tied to the thing he had to do in london (even though she claims he didnt tell her anything about it) or by that justice lord guy (more probable also it might still regardless be tied to k's mission because lord justice seemed to be invested in it for some reason)
also since we dont know prosecutor dracula's tragic backstory my theory is that during the trial of that case the jurors decided on the wrong verdict (which explains his distaste for the juror system to which same bitch) id say not guilty (also would explain why he supposedly kills defendants who have been proven innocents) WHICH MEANS that the true culprit is still loose and they're gonna be the killer of this current case
AND my theory is that since lord justice wants to speak in private with susato in the morning he's gonna be the victim and the manner of death will follow the exact plot of the manuscript which will lead to susato being arrested as she knows the content of the mystery case and we're gonna defend her (sholmes will probably be with us at the time and have an alibi and iris is literally 10)
#tgaac liveblogging#has this been done before? yes#does it fuck severely and therefore deserve to be repeated? absolutely#long post#case 5 my beloved case 5#also unrelated but iris is my daughter and if anything happens to her i will kill ryunosuke#i will kill him regardless but still#also x2 does this completely disregard the mcgilded plot? yes i have no idea how that ties in my perfectly deduced plot
