The goofy Japanifornia setting is great and I am glad that the localisers set the game in LA.

There are some characters where the localisation made them 1000% more hilarious.

edit: tagged spoiler removed after rereading op. Y'all probably know who I'm talking about anyway.

Well drat, if the guy in the picture isn't Redd White, that kind of throws out the Bellboy's testimony. I'm not sure how you're going to find the killer at this point unless Grodyburger has some hot goss for you.

The killer is in custody. The victim wrote her name in blood, remember? The correct autopsy report even specifies that was possible.

I really hope this LP doesn't suffer from the PW curse because it being a blind SSLP is a really fun new perspective on the games. I agree with basically your entire assessment of the episodes, mostly good except for the extended ending sequence and White folding like a bad poker hand under the slightest pressure.

A lot of the humour in Phoenix Wright comes from the protagonist being a sarcastic straight man to the goofy anime antics around him, so pairing him up with a goofy anime sidekick just means we get more of that and it rules.

Edgeworth is at his funniest when something breaks his composure and he is as flummoxed by the witness as Phoenix.

Are you writing the commentary notes up as you play the game, rather than doing a recording session and then doing a writeup afterwards?

Clearly he's the protagonist of the next Devil May Cry game. Phoenix needs to dispense with all of this "court of law" nonsense and beat the hell out of him with his Marvel vs. Capcom superpowers.

But he defeats enemies in UMvC3 in the exact same way he defeats them in this game.

Gant is a disturbing character. It's not the way he acts toward others, it's not his dialogue.

It's those eyes.

I really like the way he stares at the camera just long enough for it to be uncomfortable.

The Detective's face being perfectly blocked by the flag or the locker at all times is a really good joke.
