He didn't cheat on retraining the parrot at least. ...or did he?

At the very least, he's probably making more than poor Gumshoe.

I do think that 1-5 is one of the worst when it comes to 'here's my one-note gimmick' characters, not because it necessarily has more, but because they're so front-loaded; of the 4 new characters we've seen so far, 3 hit you with that gimmick pretty hard right off the bat.

Meekins is one of those cases where it feels like his art style is wildly jarring from the characters you're used to. Marshall and Angel for instance look a bit more polished, but they still fit in with the recurring cast like Gumshoe. Meekins has exaggerated expressions and proportions, and I know they were trying to sell it as 'goofy' but ehhhh.

The Blue Badger is probably less of an oddity in the Japanese version when you consider that they have a mascot for just about every company out there.

It is a bit surreal for a trial to start without Gumshoe being the first witness.

One thing I don't actually like here is Mia's ghostly intervention again. I know the game is beating the player over the head with the obvious parallels with the Skye sisters and the Fey sisters, but Mia interjecting here just makes Phoenix looks... I don't know, weak? Like he can't get through one trial without a Fey helping him.

Gant is jarring for a few reasons, but I think one of them (for me, at least) is his colour scheme and shading. It feels very stand-out among the more natural colours of the regular cast, and not really in a good way, it's like looking at a radioactive crayon.

Wonder how much the trial changes if Edgeworth had actually listened and got the report from Meekins.

It is also worth remembering that this is also post-reformed Edgeworth. The old one would probably have just sat on that info knowingly to keep his perfect win rate.

It's funny how Angel would be a 'kinda gimmick there' character in most cases but because she draws out both the trial and investigation so much, she fills you with dread, like every time she pulls out a new lunchbox.

It is notable I think that later games would have more notable sound effects associated with characters and that influenced 1-5, with Meekins' various sounds as well as Marshall's 'gulping' animation. Characters from the first four cases otherwise are fairly silent though still expressive with their animations, other than of course the Objection/Hold Its and the gavel.

# ¿ Oct 21, 2023 17:13 |

I know it's a mid-blink animation but I like that it looks like Smug Gumshoe is looking down on Phoenix.

It was clearly Gumshoe, duh. And he even gave Edgeworth a confusing flyer to confound him further! Dastardly.

The real answer is that Gumshoe, being the true criminal, adjusted the Blue Badger so that it would not only conveniently block the face of his co-conspirator during the security footage, but also play that maddening tune to exasperate anyone who would try to get to the bottom of it.

Meekins the very first time he shows up is fine since he's just delivering a report to Edgeworth. After that he shows up with his megaphone and that sounds haunts your dreams even 10 years later.

The weird thing about replaying these games years later is realizing how much older you get when you compare yourself now to the characters' ages. These days I'm about Gumshoe's age.

I want to know Gumshoe's birthdate!

Gumshoe would be the best co-worker. (Not a subordinate though, I don't want him actually handling things I need to get done.)

Quackles posted:Exactly this. Rise From the Ashes is like a symphony - you need to sit through the quiet bits at first, but oh boy can it get loud. It's more like the early part is a cacophony of irritating noise (Angel Star, Meekins) before it actually picks up the tempo.
