doctorcorby: I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the text of the Ace Attorney games and how they present (and largely don’t present) queer issues and drawing conclusions about the society from that. This has impacted my writing of[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

acrealis: the more i think about it
tokidokifish: Never forget that while Phoenix Wright may have cross-examined a parrot, Manfred von Karma hadĀ prepared for that eventualityĀ andĀ retrained the parrotĀ not to give important details.
iwritenarrativesandstuff: Phoenix Wright really is the character ever. I canāt believe I was told that heās just some normal dude. This guy is the judgiest bitch in the game. Sure, heās got a big heart and heāll defend you to[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

hotpikmin: Aurapollo is so funny to me because they were going to make that canon for a point. Imagine being simon and the short red guy your hawk attacks goes and says “Your sister sucked me good and hard through[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Oh the one hand, yeah I agree that it sucks that there are so many murders in this murder mystery game. But on the other hand you know we kind of signed up for that from the beginning. š
LOL its fascinating that you’ve picked up on that, because I don’t think I’ve stated it directly. I don’t really *mind* the pairing of Klavier and Apollo. I think it makes sense– there’s some genuine series subtext that hints toward[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
hotel-japanifornia: inbarfink: Miles Edgeworth and Maya Fey are actually very similar people who reacted to very similar trauma very similarly. Itās just that Edgeworthās Emotional Repression Trauma Coping Mechanisms manifest outwardly in a very āconceal donāt feelā way, while Maya[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Speaking of the difference between a queer reading, queer subtext, and queer coding, as relevant to the Ace Attorney series… There is a moment in Dual Destinies that carries obvious queer subtext relevant to one of our main characters (Apollo[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
blackheartbiohazards: I wish more people in fandom understood (or would make the distinction between) a character who is queer coded, and a character they have a queer reading for. I think that many fans do understand the difference, but insisting[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Listen, I am a huge slash shipper, but you need to understand my biggest pet peeve about the Ace Attorney fandom. A large part of the reason that slash shipping came to be a dominating force in many circles of[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

greyhound-with-a-mega-wizard-hat: You know in Spirit of Justice they argue about whether the orb is the Founder’s Orb or the Crystal of Ami Fey???? Is it just me or did anyone else think that they were both correct and that Ami[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Ahlbi: “people of this country spend an average of 15 hours a day in prayer.” Listen kid, prayer georg is an outlier and should not have been counted.
kiaooftheblade: Trucy Wright is a lesbian and is in a polyamorous relationship with both Betty and Bonny de Famme and Pearl Fey, pass it on.
Replaying Bridge to the Turnabout, and the entire front half of the case repeatedly jams it into your skull how incredibly terrified of Dusky Bridge Phoenix is. And yet the second that Maya might be in danger, Phoenix immediately runs[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Some timeline notes for all the AA fic were writing.

teatitty: Funniest way I could think for the Ace Attorney franchise to be officially over is if capcom released a case in which the Judge is the murdered victim. The chaos and anarchy it would cause among the players would[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Ace Attorney has a fascinating dedication to giving us absolutely no information about its characters that is not specifically necessary for a case. where does phoenix live in the first AA? who knows! where does maya live when she works[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
had a look at AO3 and I am fucking SHOOK that there aren’t a million fics bringing Mia Fey back to life. There’s like, 2. What the hell. gotta be the change we wanna see
Speaking of queer coding… Deeply frustrated with some western Ace Attorney fans willfully obtuse insistence that the main AA characters are all deliberately queer coded– while ignoring the fact that all the actually queer coded characters in the series are[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
bittersnsweetz: i think too many people overthink phoenix wright’s character change in aa4. he’s been through shit. he lost his job because of something out of his control. hes never been a “beacon of light” (to anybody but edgeworth), he’s[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
