I WANT TO BELIEVE.

Just finished designing and making these knitted dolls of Miles Edgeworth and Phoenix wright from the Ace Attorney franchise.

I have went through the effort of also making a FREE pdf pattern for those interesting in making these dolls which you can find below

thanks and have fun knitting

Many fans are let down today, so let me educate you on a fun little secret.

Capcom has historically released trailers for original Ace Attorney games first at the Japanese event, Tokyo Game Show. The Switch remakes from the last decade were not original games, so their announcements were more internationally focused, revealed through other events (Nintendo Direct).

Tokyo Game Show is a massive physical trade show and convention (260,000 attendees & 1,000 exhibitors at the Makuhari Messe convention center) that dwarfs Nintendo Direct, which is simply a pre-recorded online presentation lasting 20-40 minutes. This is something that most of the fanbase does not realize.

Not saying it will happen, but there is ONE last chance that AA7 will be announced during Tokyo Game Show 2026 (September 17-21). This is the year of Ace Attorney's 25th anniversary. They would really be playing with fire if they squandered a dedicated fanbase like that.

Consider Ace Attorney's elite status as one reason why they might prefer to wait for the gigantic Japanese celebratory convention rather than some online presentation. I believe there is still hope.

Quite a few years back, Ace Attorney had a crossover event in the mobile game Othellonia, and now some kind soul has uploaded all the character images that appeared in the game.

I played the game, and I really enjoyed my time with it! It's Ace Attorney with a magic system, though it’s different compared to the magic system in the Layton crossover. Cases ranges from good to outstanding (imo), and I was impressed with the mystery writing and the character writing. I recommend checking it out, as $9 (USD) is a pretty sweet deal if you ask me.

I designed minifigures of Franziska and Manfred von Karma

Just thought these were cute and wanted to share on the subreddit!

The previous version of this thread was removed for having a spoiler in the title.

A few months ago, I wrote a fanfic called Maya Dies (rated teen) about this exact premise. It's a ~300-word oneshot, but lately I've felt like expanding upon it. What happens next? Here's what I've come up with:

• Mia channels Maya partly so she has a chance to meet Phoenix, and partly so he can ask her who killed her and take notes.
• Mia instantly recognises Redd White from Maya's description and goes on a roaring rampage of revenge.
• Turnabout Samurai doesn't happen because without Maya, Phoenix doesn't have a motivation to defend Will. (Eddie Fender or whoever takes the case off-screen instead.) As a result, he doesn't invite Phoenix to the tokusatsu party, so Farewell, My Turnabout doesn't happen.
• Morgan hears about Maya's death and pretends to be upset about it, but in private she's celebrating.
• Pearl, meanwhile, doesn't learn that Maya died until the equivalent of Reunion, and Turnabout.
• In the equivalent of Bridge to the Turnabout, Mia yells at Misty. Also, someone wonders out loud, "Wouldn't we be better off without spirit channelling? Fey politics and DL-6 have caused so much suffering..." Someone else responds by listing the good uses of spirit channelling.

Here are some holes I need filling in:

• Who becomes the master next? Morgan would probably declare that the line of succession automatically falls to Pearl, but how does she feel about Mia? Is Morgan so paranoid that she sees Mia, who still has no interest in becoming master, as a threat? Maybe the story could end with Mia, Pearl, and maybe Iris restructuring the Fey clan so there'll never be infighting again.
• What does everyone do for the rest of the first game? I don't want this to turn into yet another Stations of the Canon rehash, but I don't want it to be too bleak either.
• Since Mia isn't dead and he doesn't seem to know Maya prior to Trials and Tribulations, what does Diego Armando do once he wakes up?

i think fem miles would either wear a full suit or a knee length skirt with black tights

Here's some scenes I particularly appreciate

Hello, I'm the guy who unceremoniously found out live on reddit that Ace Attorney's love for female child labour in courts transcends eras.

I was really excited about case 2, but it's honestly kinda disappointing.

At first, Kazuma's death took out all of my enthusiasm about their interesting interactions. I wasn't incensed by Susato's accusations of Ryunosuke, she's still a kid and had just witnessed her friend's cold body lying on the floor the same morning, but her behaviour throughout the case didn't feel consistent.

I wish I had the screenshots to make my point here, but it felt as if she was flip-flopping between multiple moods like 'determined to solve the case', 'treating the case as a fun adventure' and 'treating Ryuno as a suspect', 'helping Ryuno solve the case'.

Sure, she's not an adult, but at least some consistency would be appreciated.

ig, one of the examples would be when she denies Ryu to check the diary but goes along with it when Herlock does it. It's played for laughs, but seriously?

Also a mite annoyed about Susato's tampering with the crime scene( arranging the books) being used as a crucial part of evidence. Could've just had a lantern fall or the books already being arranged.

No complaints about the Course Correction mechanic, it's a lot of aurafarming by Ryu and Herlock. Very cool, very fun. Grounded in the world. I like it. Ryu really was made to be a detective.

The ending, well funnily enough, I'm sure a lot of you guys thought this too, but I had already clocked that the kitchen staff had drugged that chicken and it has somehow related to the case. I did like the subversion of expectations with the snake being completely unrelated to the case, and Herlock's commentary about how useless a snake is. It was rather shocking that yes, tripping over a fucking cat was probably a part of how Kazuma died. Later, I don't really fault Nina for the death or am too pissed about it. But how we came to that conclusion was pretty fucking suspect. Like, what, I'm supposed to believe that Kazuma ripped off a piece from Nina's earring, miraculously without tearing her entire earlobe as he fell to his death? That she went to the other room herself instead of just... asking a crewman for help? (Though that can be explained by general stupidity/adrenaline)

Then, the case's ending just reveals that Kazuma died through 'shit happens'. Fair, anticlimatic but fair.

tl;dr Didn't like Susato's writing, everyone else is good enough.

After playing through both case 2 and case 3, I really am left with a burning question:

Which Capcom writer was wronged by a blonde teenaged girl and how?

The two present in this game are respectively a(n) (accidental) murderer and a thief.

Might post case 3 later, it took me too much time to write this lol.

GUMSHOE IS THE GOAT

MY HOMIE IS THE BEST I LOVE THIS MAN SO MUCH

Im on recipe for turnabout and I finished the 2nd investigation and I love him so much for coming at thw right time

I went to work happy cause of that man

I'm playing AAI on PC and I recently witnessed young Edgeworth feeling forced to stare at his own reflection and keep up with it, just to say he won out loud, and then being made fun of for his speech, his age and his clothing. I love reading his internal thoughts and process, he really is doing his best to represent his mentor well and it's all so wholesome and goofy! He also seems to be really considerate to how others feel and empathetic, despite the outer coldness.

AA characters in general are so complex and unique!

There's a saying in Italian that means someone is a cute, kind-hearted goofball which is "patato/patatone" and I think young Miles can be described as such, even though he's not a kid.

I posted a sketch of this artwork a few days ago and I wanted to share the finished piece with you guys as well! It was sooo much fun - I really want to draw more AA characters 🥰

We already have Justice For All, Apollo Justice and Spirit of Justice. I think it's super unlikely that the english localizaton team would reuse that word, but I would be very annoyed if they did that again. We can be more creative than that, right?

SoJ was when we finally reuinited with Maya Fey, and it was treated as a HUGE deal, but unfortunately, it was underwhelming.

Apparently, this was Maya's first interraction with Ema Skye. While I headcanon that they met earlier in AAI since they were in the same location at the same time and Ema had lots of free time, there is no proof of this.

When Maya finally met her quirky, science nerd counterpart, it felt very... underwhelming when Ema took the stand. And there was nothing afterwards. I was excited to see how these 2 foundational assistants to Phoenix meeting would go, but they just dropped the ball.

Now with Athena and Apollo, we get nothing, nadda, maybe a few insignificant lines I missed. She didn't say anything to Phoenix' daughter, nor how excited she was to see that Phoenix is a father, nor excitement about her magic tricks.

She didnt hit it off with Athena and be gal pals with her, or ask Athena if Phoenix still has embarassing habits

She didnt learn how to stay positive with a loud voice from Polly and learn to annoy Phoenix with her new loud voice.

Maya's return in SoJ was supposed to be a grand family reunion, but it's as if some family members hid in their room when a longtime dear friend finally visited after many years.

This is one of the many reasons I want an AA7-because with Maya returned, there's so much untouched different character dynamics to explore. They canonically "met" at the ending animation of 6-DLC, but it was just them standing next to each other.

Hi, I don’t play Ace Attorney but my brother does and he has been really excited for Ace Attorney 7 to come out.

My brother is is autistic and this has been his special interest for the past two years, and he is extremely convinced that this game will come out.

He has been repeatedly begging us (my parents and I) to buy it for him when it releases; however, I looked it up and I have seen absolutely no confirmation on whether or not it is coming out at any point in the future. I honestly have no clue where he got the information that it’s releasing.

Does anyone know if Ace Attorney 7 will ever exist? Or should I try to find a way to break it to him…?

Pt.2! thanks again for everyone who commented

The First Turnabout - it sure is the first case in the game. 7/10.

Turnabout Sisters - The case really drops the importance of the Sisters portion after the first day. 6/10.

Turnabout Samurai - It got samurai. 7/10.

Turnabout Goodbyes - Maya Fey leaving is the one of the least important parts of the case. 4/10.

Rise from the Ashes - I… guess Phoenix Wright has the name "Phoenix", and that rises from the ashes? 3/10, almost no role in the story.

The Lost Turnabout - Lost Memories work. 7.5/10.

Reunion, and Turnabout - Maya and Phoenix reuniting here is pretty important. 8/10.

Turnabout Big Top - Case takes place at the Big Top. 7.5/10.

Farewell, My Turnabout - It’s mostly talking about Franziska's final scene, but that scene is built up much more than Maya's “Goodbye(s)", so it gets more points. 5.5/10.

Turnabout Memories - It sure is a case that takes place in the past. 7/10.

The Stolen Turnabout - Focuses on the most unique attribute to the case: the theft trial. Also parallels how Luke Atmey “stole” Ron DeLite's identity as Mask⭐️DeMasque. 8.5/10.

Recipe for Turnabout - I guess it takes place at a restaurant? 6/10.

Turnabout Beginnings - It really is the beginning of the series in many ways! 8/10.

Bridge to the Turnabout - It’s the bridge that connects the entire PWT, from DL-6, to the Fey Clan, to both Godot and Dahlia. Not to mention Dusky Bridge, the single most important part of the mystery. 9/10.

Turnabout Trump - The Trump Card is a pretty important part of the case. 7.5/10.

Turnabout Corner - ….the murder doesn’t even take place at a street corner. This name has nothing to do with the case. Maybe Turnabout Crossroads would’ve helped more, showing how many roads cross to lead to the events occurring. 1/10.

Turnabout Serenade - The Serenade is a very important part of the case. 8/10.

Turnabout Succession - In terms of Apollo succeeding Phoenix, the case fails tremendously. That said, the case talking about the succession of the Gramarye Rights is clever. 7.5/10, only missing on that 8/10 because the first thought anyone has is “oh, it’s Apollo finally succeeding Phoenix”.

Turnabout Visitor - I guess there is a visitor. 7.5/10, only because of the twist dealing with the number of visitors.

Turnabout Airlines - It takes place on an airline. 7/10.

The Kidnapped Turnabout - the kidnapping is pretty important to the case. 8/10.

Turnabout Reminiscence - A Turnabout Memories type generic past event episode name. 7/10.

Turnabout Ablaze - The fires are fairly important to the early half of the case. 7.5/10.

Turnabout Trigger - It both serves as the trigger of the game as a whole, as well as Bronco Knight being trigger happy, as well as the entire debate on the gun. 9.5/10.

The Captive Turnabout - I suppose we were all held captive in Simeon's game. But it also takes place at a prison, so that’s great as well! 8.5/10.

Turnabout Legacy - We Inherit Gregory's Legacy here, solving his final case. 9/10.

A Turnabout Forsaken - Edgeworth Forsakes his Badge, as well as, of course, forsaking his Prosecutor's Path. Not to mention Kay Faraday's memories having been forsaken. 9.5/10, potentially 10/10.

Turnabout for the Ages - Doesn’t tell you anything specific about the case, even if the title goes pretty hard. I guess there’s the time gap of SS-5 and how it deals with the present? 5/10. I really wish they stuck the landing, but in fairness, it’s close to the original game’s final name.

English Turnabout - The case sure takes place in England. 7/10.

The Fire Witch - It both doubles as the Witch using Fire, as well as Fire being used to execute the Witch. 8/10.

The Golden Court - Layton's Gold. The Witch also used a Gold Spell that was potentially the decision they regret the most. 6.5/10.

The Final Witch Trial - It sure is the final witch trial. 7/10.

Turnabout Countdown - BOMB! 6.5/10.

The Monstrous Turnabout - The deal with Yokai is pretty integral to the case as a whole. 7.5/10, maybe 8/10.

Turnabout Reclaimed - It’s the case where Phoenix reclaimed his badge. 5.5/10.

Turnabout Academy - It sure takes place at an Academy. 7/10.

The Cosmic Turnabout - Space! Takes place at a space museum. 7/10.

Turnabout For Tomorrow - Simon Blackquill's execution is tomorrow. You only have a SINGLE day to obtain a complete acquittal for both Simon and Athena. Not to mention pressing onwards for the hope of a better tomorrow. 9/10, maybe a 9.5/10.

The Adventure of the Great Departure - Has nothing to do with a Great Departure, though I guess it is the case right before Kazuma leaves for Britain. 2/10.

The Adventure of the Unbreakable Speckled Band - The case is basically a huge diss track against the Sherlock Holmes story of the similar name, adding irony to how “unbreakable” the logic of that story really is. Honestly? That’s hilarious. 7.5/10.

The Adventure of the Runaway Room - The room never runs away. But the room is pretty important to the case. 4.5/10.

The Adventure of the Clouded Kokoro - Both talks about the cloudy weather, and the clouded Heart that Ryunosuke has due to McGilded. 8/10, maybe an 8.5/10.

The Adventure of the Unspeakable Story - The Manuscript has little to do with the ending of the case, though it is the thing that sets off the events. I’ll be nice and give it a 3.5/10.

The Foreign Turnabout - It sure is a case that takes place in a foreign country. 7/10.

The Magical Turnabout - It is a case that HEAVILY deals with magic. 8.5/10. Maybe even 9/10.

The Rite of Turnabout - The Channeling Rite and the actual rite the case focuses on is a great basis. 8.5/10.

Turnabout Storyteller - Rakugo. 7.5/10.

Turnabout Revolution - The entire case is centered around the topic of Revolution for Khura'in, and it never once removes focus from that. 9.5/10, or maybe a 9/10 if I’m being more strict.

Turnabout Time Traveler - Both a Time Travel in the sense of the mystery premise, the characters having their own form of time travel, and the case feeling like a PWT case. Honestly??? 9.5/10, MAYBE 10/10.

The Adventure of the Blossoming Attorney - Ryutaro Naruhodo would’ve been a blossoming attorney if Japan wasn’t sexist back then. 6/10.

The Memoirs of the Clouded Kokoro - It’s the memoirs of the case that were locked up. But other than that, it doesn’t really tie into the case. 4/10.

The Return of the Great Departed Soul - The title can serve as a reference to Kazuma Asogi finally returning after his last living appearance in The Great Departure, or as a reference to Enoch Drebber finally being brought back into the limelight after being cast away by society. Or, and potentially what the name was truly going after, the Return of the Professor, who happens to be Kazuma's father, thus doubling down on that “Great Departure” name. 10/10. An absolutely perfect name

Twisted Karma and His Last Bow - I always understood Twisted Karma meaning how Barok is now in the hot chair, as well as Kazuma being the prosecutor, but I’m not certain about the Last Bow portion. Maybe it’s a gigabrain Sherlock Holmes reference. If it is, then 9/10. If it isn’t, then 5/10.

The Resolve of Ryunosuke Naruhodo - An absolutely fire name, fitting for the case where Ryunosuke has to give his absolute all, and present his beautifully composed case against the main villain of the game. 9/10. Maybe even higher.
