In the Investigations series. She has honestly racked up quite a bit of screentime so I don't mind her non-appearance in the newer games quite as much. Even though she is the best.

Here's a youtube of the gameplay they showed: https://youtu.be/ZjMxMtKxlXU

To me the most notable feature is that now they're actually using their beautiful 3D models for something besides imitations of sprites. Check out that Phoenix running into the court in the beginning!

So she shows up again in Investigations 2 as well? Maybe I'll track down that fan translation after all...

In PL vs AA there's this one time they show Phoenix like pacing back and forth behind the bench contemplating something and I was like

what is this incredible action

but never again, until now

There's more 3D court animation in Dai, so this isn't the first time they're doing this kind of thing.

I played the demo at TGS (and was in the audience for the stage presentation) but I'm on a phone now so I'll write more when I'm at a real keyboard.

Well inebriated, Phoenix pauses as Miles reminds him to give a speech as father of the bride.

Phoenix thinks for a minute, and a dark smile spreads across his face as he stands up.

Apollo was just boring in AJ because they didn't do anything with him. He wasn't like actively horrible or anything.
