Is this the most frustrating ship in the history of vidya?
I never understood that, was she always an adult but just short or is she still a child on game 1?

They have her age listed from the get-go. She was 17 in AA1, 18 in AA2, etc. She's just really dorky and innocent so she seems younger than she is. It's part of why she has a complex toward Franziska, who is the same age as her but is far more mature and confident.
>>719685231 (OP)
Literally can't happen because of the significant fujoshi fanbase for these games who want to believe all good looking young guys take it up the ass from other good looking young guys. It's a pity.

Last one and a bit of blogposting
Spirit of Justice really should have been a Phoenix and Maya game.
The setting was perfect for Maya, we haven't seen her in forever, and the trailers advertised her return like crazy. They even threw in some ship bait to boot
I was so frustrated and disappointed when the game ended up being an Apollo game that gives him another random backstory and Maya's role was nothing more than her being the damsel in distress and the murder suspect again.
She barely had any screen time too (had to make up for it with the dlc case)
If they wanted SoJ to be Apollo's send off, they should've advertised it as such

In general the 4-6 trilogy is the prime example of why they shouldn't have bothered to move on from Phoenix considering at no point the attempt was seriously made, they aren't bad games but I'd place them as the weakest collection.
Also let's be honest, if they actually advertised SoJ as an Apollo game on release nobody would've bought it overseas, only japan loves him.

Phoenix is finally able to stand on his own, so he has to step away from the limelight and take the mentor role already?

If you have a DS or 3DS play Ace Attorney 1-3 on that and ignore everything else for your sake. If you don't have a DS or 3DS, emulate the DS versions on your phone with an LCD filter (I think Drastic has a built-in one) a lot of the soul is lost when converting the sprites to HD drawings.
Everything else after the original trilogy doesn't capture the same charm except for a few moments and feels like a slog to play through and read. Every returning character feels like a flanderized cartoon of itself. If you decide to play beyond AA3, everything else is available on Android and I recommend you play it on your phone or a tablet, again, playing these games on a big screen in a non portable format takes away a lot of the charm

They could've been fine moving away from Phoenix if they committed to it, instead we get this strange middle ground where Phoenix is older, cooler, smarter, and is the main focus of the the overarching plot, then you have Apollo, he's newbie phoenix 2.0, he's your player character, it's shades of DMC4 Nero vs Dante all over again.

Release order is best because of how they redid the visuals as the games went on. Even though they're not translated I believe the GBA versions are worse than the DS ones last I recall. Also keep in mind that release order is best because they introduce new mechanics in each new game or revamp various systems so you end up with things like the Spirit Medium mechanics or petitioning the jury itself.
That guy's image is correct except Great Ace Attorney was made either in the middle or after the 3DS games, I can't remember which so you're not really meant to go in chronological order. There's also the Layton crossover which isn't canon but another PW game.

The general lack of story and character progression after Apollo Justice is what is frustrating. Makes the series feel like it's purely made for the meme fanbase which is probably the case since the series probably would have never continued existing without the memes.

https://www.japaneselawtranslation.go.jp/en/laws/view/3581/en#je_pt2ch24at3
(Indecency through Compulsion)
Article 176
A person who forcibly commits an indecent act through assault or intimidation upon another person of not less than thirteen years of age is punished by imprisonment for not less than 6 months but not more than 10 years. The same applies to a person who commits an indecent act upon another person under thirteen years of age.
So to summarize:
>rape a 13 or older -> prison, 6 months to 10 years
>sex with a 12 or younger, rape or not rape -> prison, same sentence
Pretty sure Maya is older than 13 in the trilogy

Notice how no one is saying the second Investigations game is the best ever since it got an official translation. It was just the usual exclusivity circlejerk.

Anon the character designer for AA1 is literally a yaoi mangaka and Max Galactica's design is explicitly based on BL manga, it absolutely is and the devs have been aware of the fujo audience as early as the GBA era
>>719701403
The designs are just good normal designs anyone can find appealing and Phoenix is downright even pretty ugly so one must be crazy mentally ill to make any kind of fujo argument. It's just a completely family friendly inoffensive series that has nothing to do with romance. But mentally ill trannies on /v/ have to shoehorn their garbage in no matter what.

GAA is the legit best duology. The first game might be slow, but at least sets the tone for the second where everything comes together. And it has arguably the best cast of the whole series.
AAI2 suffers from the fact that it has way too much fanservice bait, even though it's still a massive improvement over the first game. The second trilogy, Apollo Justice, remains the most cohesive game. Dual Destinies becoming Athena wasn't a good idea. The only redeemable thing was legit just the last case, but you have to suffer to get to that point. Spirit of Justice makes the mistake of AAI2 with the fanservice, but multiplied by like one thousand. To the point it's downright insulting. Maya is brought back to being just again a defendant, just like the original trilogy, then the whole part is basically, for a most part, a retelling of 2-4 in a different light with the 1-4 twist on it. And let's not forget how 6-2 is a huge Trucy humiliation trial, because Trucy gets depicted as a shitty magician in front of everyone.

A more charismatic character than any other cute girl that was brought up before. I'd say she's even more fleshed out than Trucy. Considering that Trucy was butchered from the 5th game onwards.

Ironically I think the only thing really holding back the later games is holding onto the OG cast. I was enjoying AJ's new characters fairly well but the climax getting hijacked by Phoenix and his Magatama really took the wind out of it, and DD bringing him back and closing the book on the period in between effectively turned seven years' worth of potential story and development into a deadzone the devs won't touch.
I'd like to see what the timeline looks like where the AJ cast gets to develop and shine on their own without having to hang in the shadow of the cast that already had their moment.

The problem with this series is that it's hit the Megaman problem. Too many games released in a short period of time and too many subseries to confusingly try to get into and the exhaustion just set in.
I don't see an AA7 happening until MM11 periods of time pass and even then you'll get one low budget game every 20 years.

>Gant is so powerful vilian OMG!!
>AAI1-5 villain is powerful too but who cares
Having replayed these recently, the difference between the two is genuinely night and day.
The former is someone seemingly affable who has the ability to push people down while convincing them the situation is their own fault, takes forever to even begin to crack, and manages to regain his composure after his defeat.
The latter exposes his true nature after relatively meager pressure, constantly asserts his immunity but doesn't act on it despite sweating out contradictions early and often, and is ultimately undone not by his own actions and weapons, but by a single drop on Larry's foodcart, at which point he boils into senility.
It's obvious that AAI-5's villain was an attempt to recreate Gant's invulnerability, but there was very little understanding to what made him work other than it taking forever to finish him off.

It's your right to say it's not canon, but saying there's nothing that "remotely teases at it" or just no reason to ship them whatsoever is just being disingenuous on purpose. Much like Phoenix x Edgeworth, this ship has been around for a long time, probably before you were even born.

There is so much ambiguity left intentionally at the end of T&T where Phoenix has what can be considered 'romance flags' with Maya, Franziska, and Iris. There's even hints of the fujo flag with Edgeworth. It's clear that's where the series was supposed to stop and you make whatever ending you want up in your head.
From there on it deviates to hobo Phoenix and the rest of the games but the multiple scenes in T&T was clearly a nod to the ambiguity initially.

>But...When I look at this mess we're in...I can't even protect the person closest to me.
So it's not like there weren't things for shippers to feed off of.

Now that they've shat out every collection I do factually think an announcement is fairly imminent.
We know they've been working on AA7 for a while, and at this point I believe they've gone full 3D adventure game with the investigation segments, which is why it's taken so long

Even a little kid could patch the fan translation into the ROM and emulate it, and also it seemed like a majority of anons in AA threads had played the fan translation before the AAI remaster came out.
The games themselves are pretty good albeit overrated but I think the biggest issue is that the plot just redoes Mile's character development that he already went through in the original trilogy.

Itβs funny that you blame women for being anti-ship when itβs woman behavior to be compelled to turn any sort of friendly dynamic into a romantic thing to begin with. Phoenix has no interest in Maya that way. They work best as a business duo.

and the act of doing it is literally female, its a girls thing.

There haven't really been any good AA threads since the release of the remakes, probably just because all discussion about the game has been done to death. People can't really keep talking about about a game series that hasn't had new content since 2017 outside shitflinging over which cases/games are the best and shipfagging/waifufaggotry autism.

AJ's spritework and OST did a great job giving the game it's own atmosphere, I think DD's "Dark Age of the Law" bullshit would be less hated if the game kept the same vibes as AJ instead of being bright and cheerful and futuristic.

Be aware, Maya is the kind of girl that would prefer spending her time being along with you like having fun playing, going to movies, eating at restaurants, cuddling in the sofa but her sex drive is so low that she won't make love until the moment you both decide to have a baby. Her little cute cousin on the other hand... haha

I'll say it time and time again, if they really wanted to focus on the new cast, they never should've put anyone from the old cast in the game, even Ema might've been too much and she's a mostly different character anyways.
>>719709456
It is wild how Trucy seemed so bland overall with what should've been a banger theme combination, i chalk that up to her not being emotionally vulnerable until 6.
>>719713437
In general I'd say the weaker, but not the bad still, games are the ones where you got some interesting ideas, then the game ends before they get to be fully explored, these entries also tend to have pretty whatever characters that are hard carried by the presence of 2 or 3 major dudes doing the heavy lifting.
>>719714054
If I remember right, Takumi was originally going to eschew the old cast entirely, but the execs above him insisted that Phoenix had to be there.

regardless of it that's true or not, I do really like what they did with Phoenix in it and it could've been a fantastic idea to play as him like this, they struck gold with that concept.
But I couldn't tell you what else I'd do to make Apollo stand out more under that condition, perhaps make his connection to the magic troupe more front and center? Perhaps keep Phoenix as a more traditional mentor figure instead of a trickster mentor? But I love the concept of Hobo nick so much that I wouldn't want to give it up,making a story is hard.

maybe he doesn't need to be wearing a magician outfit, but i really think the concept of Apollo and Trucy knowing they are siblings, but bouncing off eachother with magical themed stuff in court sounds like a really soulful idea.
I'll go to my grave forever haunted by not knowing why on earth an interesting angle for these two had to be kept hidden from them, in 5 which clumsily explained a few unknowns from 4, they never did touch this one and it's looking like it'll be forever on the backburner. But I know for a fact that no matter what reason they bullshit, it won't be close to whatever the original reason is, and i'd give good money to find out "why"
