To be honest, I just press everything every single time. Not only does that give you the most possible clues for what to present, it also gives you the most fun dialogue. :)

I personally think Sahwit is innocent, and Larry totally did it.

Localization trivia:

Our friend's name here is Konaka Masaru in the Japanese script, written as 小中大. Those three characters individually mean "small", "medium", and "large".
A 4'5" psychic is on the run from the law! That's right, there's a small medium at large!

I'm not a huge anime guy really, but I really enjoyed the Phoenix Wright anime. Was a fun watch.

I was the cynical 'Has Read The Books' guy and was like "No, oh my god dude how are you gonna cut that out? God you can't even tell what's going on!"

You're not wrong! They did cut some stuff (and also add some new stuff) I'm usually that guy too, but I still enjoyed it.

I suspect he doesn't realize you're actually an attorney, and that you worked with Mia. Best present your attorney's badge.

I think starting a series with as much future history as this one has must be something like trying to get into any other long-running, popular series in the Internet age, wanting to share your experience with people who've seen and done it all, and discovering that the community will use you as a means to share the things that make you not yet part of it, often (apparently) oblivious to why you're not enjoying all the in-jokes. If you tell people you've just discovered this charming little game called Undertale, they'll tell you you're gonna have a bad time, offer you some spaghetti, and start humming Megalovania. Mention that you're trying to get into Doctor Who chronologically, and it's a toss-up whether they'll ask you to reverse the polarity of the neutron flow for a jelly baby or go straight to the "wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey" quotes. Bring up that interesting Jojo series that looks like they're going to be introducing vampires, and if any one of your friends doesn't immediately shout "ZA WARUDO!", please introduce me to them, because I need a new group of friends. Over time, any series develops enough self-awareness to pick up on those community jokes about itself and integrate them in some way, bringing the whole thing full circle (another Doctor Who joke, or just coincidence?) and making those jokes indistinguishable from the series proper, blurring the distinction even further for people who may want to encourage new fans, but don't seem to know how. It's one of those consummately human things that I hate, and the reason I've learned to finish doing anything before I let anyone know I've started it. That said, I've been enjoying reading this, I appreciate the extra effort to show the outcomes you miss in a normal playthrough, and I don't comment much for fear of becoming the thing I've spent most of this post complaining about.
Yeah, this is fair. This happens a lot. For what it's worth there ARE a couple of unique responses to showing the badge but much less than people generally joke/meme about. People just think the general idea of Phoenix shoving his badge in people's face is funny. It just doesn't really click for new people all the time.

I don't really pop in to vote, since I've played the games already so I know the right answer, and I either vote the correct answer, or something I know is incorrect.

But I want to say I'm enjoying reading this LP, and I think the right answer for this one is definitely the Attorney's Badge. (not really)

That's not a bad idea, honestly. 1-5 is a great case, but it would fit in better thematically and mechanically after the third game.

It's definitely canon. It's also a very good case! It's 100% worth playing, but there's value in considering playing it after the first trilogy, yeah.

Man I gotta be honest I didn't remember the ghost of Mia popping in as much as she does. It's not like she's spelling out the entire case or anything, but it would still be nice to figure it out on your own. Then again, it really sucks to be stuck. I guess that's the balance these kinds of games walk.

A great ending to a great game. Even though it's kinda not ended yet. :)

It's a really good case. Just really long.

Ema is great! She's very much like Maya visually, and they even share the syllable count and structure of their names!

I always sort of assumed it's just when the game wanted to show the characters from the front rather than from the side.

Oh, definitely. It's too long, for sure, and really feels like it drags in the first half, but once it gets going it's really good.

It's over! Congratulations on finishing a mammoth of an LP. I really enjoyed it and it was fun to revisit the game through your eyes. Very well done! Looking forward to more, if or when you decide to jump into Justice For All! May I recommend putting a link in this thread when the new one is made, just in case we might miss it otherwise?

One of these days, presenting the badge will be the right option, for sure.
