Yeah, Maya is pretty explicitly taking the form of Mia. It's not really a spoiler to say.

Trivia: Rise From The Ashes is the only case in the main series that does not have the idiosyncratic use of "Turnabout" in its name. This is not true in the Japanese version, where it is called Yomigaeru Gyakuten, or "Turnabout Revival," which is the subtitle of the Japanese DS release.

We're getting a bit ahead of ourselves here. The case hasn't even started yet.

AlphaKretin posted:Are you entirely sure you don't mean Gumshoe, before Mia? Nope! We don't! Keep in mind that they're the prototypes in role only, not character. I believe the Maya prototype was supposed to be a robot.

Additionally, the initial concept of the game involved a private investigator who got caught up in a murder and ended up having to defend himself in court, but it was eventually shifted to a lawyer story because the court stuff was too fun. Working names for the game included: Surviban Attorney Brothers Three Bingo-Bengo Boogie-Woogie Innocence Let's Raise Hamsters (one guy was really fighting for the game to be about hamsters)

In case you're wondering, yes, Ema and Lana were explicitly designed to parallel Maya and Mia.

Yes, she would. Even if she confesses to the crime before the trial, she still needs to go through due process, and there, she can make a formal guilty plea. To make it simple, confession =/= guilty plea

Mraagvpeine posted:This is an odd question, but is it better to play this case between games 1 & 2 or games 3 & 4? I understand if this question should be held off till after game 3, but I fear I'll forget by then. Just play it after 1-4. It's fine. It's true that there are a couple references to the other games, but it's all either surface level stuff or jokes that stand on their own.

Evidence law only ever comes up in like three cases in the entire series.

Edgeworth has been prosecuting for a while. SL-9 is not particularly special to Edgeworth, but it's quite a deal and we'll learn all about it.

It hasn't happened before, but it's not the last time it happens in the series. The witness stand is basically the go-to place for anyone who's not the defense, prosecution, or judge to deliver lines.

Stephen9001 posted:Presumably, they have 2 different, but identical stands for the defendant and the witness. With one of those stand being invisible in the "can see most of the court" (the one from behind the stand) picture. Unless anyone else has any other theories? They allude to one, but it's never really shown. Various adaptations have included a place for the defendant, though.

Mors Rattus posted:: Joe Darke was 42 at the time of the crime. He was just your run-of-the-mill businessman. I've always kinda had a problem with this. They build up Joe Darke as this evil, dark serial killer, but then when they talk about him, it sounds like he just had one bad day and got caught in a domino effect of taking out witnesses in a spree. I understand, though. Making him like a real serial killer would probably have skewn the game too dark for their targeted rating.

C. Everett Koop posted:It'd be even better if they were all accidents as well, or just manslaughter. Hit a jaywalker which kills him, lady who sees the accident has a heart attack and dies, kid skateboarding on by tries to avoid the lady and falls/breaks his neck, jogger falls into the open grave, etc... Mr. Bean finally gets the Hannibal treatment.

It's never stated what case the screwdriver is from, but people have made the assumption that it's the screwdriver we found in April's hotel room all the way back in case 2.

This is not the last time Ace Attorney asks the player to make an extra step in reasoning than most people would.

It depends on if Dee meant to hurt Jack or merely get him out of the way. Either way, she could probably make a case for self-defense. But then there's the mafia stuff, innit? And even if she's declared not guilty, the fallout basically means her career is over.
