Professor Layton is good and I wish the first and last games in the series weren't prohibitively expensive.

I have a copy of the first game I'm probably never going to play again if you're interested.

I haven't played that one, I just didn't want my Professor Layton comment to seem out of the blue so I quoted that post.

I feel similarly, but I don't see it happening. I'm still really happy that DD didn't over-correct and try to pretend that AA4 straight-up didn't happen like a lot of people wanted though.

Oh? I hadn't heard. I may have to take a look at that, then! Thank you for the heads up, friend Droyer!

They dubbed all the exclamations for new characters, made up pun names for everyone that honestly feel like they'd fit into an official AA, and in case 3 there's a song and they translated it so that the lyrics still match the melody. It's amazing

Same, to both those points. I still hope it happens though, I honestly don't see what they'll do with Phoenix if they keep him in the main character position. What else is there left for him to do? He seems pretty completed as a character.

Well AA6 is most likely going to have a lot of focus on his relationship with Maya given the whole Kurain thing. Who knows whether they'll have the guts to sink any ships, though.

he'd make a fine mentor figure, but that isn't really something he needs to be playable for.

I think it's safe to assume with all the spirit medium stuff floating around in AA6 that Maya will show up again, so Phoenix will be pretty important in that role, since he's the only lawyer that knows about Maya and spirit medium stuff. After that, who knows. They've managed to get people to like a main character other than Phoenix, so they might feel more confident in relegating him to a mentor role in AA7 while his proteges take front and center.

Well I kinda imagine half the point of bringing back the Kurain stuff was so that Phoenix could remain the main character. Because he's got a history with that sort of stuff, but I doubt he'll actually grow from it or anything because I don't see anywhere else for him to go.

If an aa7 or aa8 happens I really hope they take the risk and make the newbies of the office the main characters.

Another controversial AA opinion: I hope Maya doesn't play too much of a role in aa6 because i'd like the screentime to go to newer characters and it'd be a shame if she was the major focus in it.

I think the only way I'd be interested in more Phoenix at this point is if they bring Maya back.

That's almost assuredly what's going to happen, though it'd be a pretty amazing (and dickish) cocktease if she didn't show up in a game revolving around spirit channeling.

The fact that the prospect of more returning characters is the only thing the fanbase really gets excited about these days makes me think it would've been for the best if the series ended at T&T. Not that I disliked DD, but it felt like a very "safe" game, and I think that AA6 will be similar, what with the huge focus Spirit Medium stuff is going to get again.

e: I know this comes off as really whiny, but it bummed me out a bit that I knew a good chunk of how the plot was going to go the second Athena's wig out happened in 5-1.

I mean I also want to see early 20th century Ace Attorney and other different stuff, I just happen to like Ema and Gumshoe a lot

To be honest I'm not too enthused at pulling in more of the mystical stuff compared to being more standard (for AA) lawyering, but I will reserve judgment until actually playing it. I want to see an AA where they go to America Japan, though.

Is there any good anime about espionage? I already love Metal Gear game so do not just suggest Metal Gear games.

darker than black is a show about a chinese spy with superpowers in tokyo. its pretty good, nice animation, writing, and soundtrack

senkou no night raid is about a bunch of japanese spies with superpowers in 1930s shanghai. its also pretty cool, but it's really overlooked
