I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people that do.


I can't really get down with Objection 2013. The instrumentation of most of DD's soundtrack just doesn't work for me. It's missing the digital kick the original games had, and isn't quite as charmingly bombastic as some of the instrumental covers. I mean, it's ok, but it's not as memorable to me as any of the original 3 games' score.

That's because it's carrying over the style of his game, which regardless of its other failings had a great soundtrack.

Well, Phoenix's troubles came back when the series was more grounded. The way the kids were doing it just got more anime as time went on.

The law has only gotten more anime; when it's time for Apollo and Athena's proteges to start their practice, everyone in court will be a Jojo's Bizarre Adventure character.

I like to imagine that the only reason the witnesses in Phoenix/Apollo/Athena's cases get to bring in special stuff is because the Judge at this point recognizes that the job is much easier when the witnesses bring their own evidence to incriminate themselves with.

It messed me up so good. I started with DD so when I finally got the Trilogy and was starting off I kept thinking "well, yokai aren't real, and ridiculous as the cases are I didn't see anything straight up supernatural, so I wonder how deep we'll go into this whole medium thing, will they subtly imply it works?" and then Maya gets loving possessed by Mia and her body matches the dead lady and she just mentors from beyond the grave whenever. It's the best.

I got messed up the opposite way going into DD. "Well, Yokai aren't real but my assistant also got possessed every loving case in the first three and the guy I'm playing as has magic eyes so who honestly knows???"
