Must have been really dumb huh.. well this is a game adaptation so ofc the 1st level is gonna be easy :P Oh I didn't know that, I do know that there are manga series about this show. I thought the source was going to be the manga. |
 |
| why are people surprised about the low budget ? havent you seen the trailer ? also ofc even a 7 year old could have figured who the culprit was, this is a GAME adaptation after all im def hyping the last trail of the first game,the story was really good |

| Despite the crappy animation, I did actually enjoy the episode. Larry (who is now Yahari) was actually pretty funny to me this episode. The adaption is good and I'm not surprised the art is basic because this is A-1 Pictures. |

Like you said it's not a hard case but I don't kow why they would kill what little suspense there is like that. |

GoldenDevilGamer said: The animations aren't bad, but by A-1 standards... yeah. I'm planning on starting the games this week or next. Kaji Yuki's not suitable seiyuu for Naruhodou Ryuuichi, even if he's a good seiyuu. 3/5 Why the hate for Yuki Kaji? I mean he often takes the role of a "clumsy, but serious male character" (see Sonic in OPM and Eren in AoT) and I think that description quite fits Naruhodo/Wright. |

The suspect is the same and all, the prosecutor and the judge too. It's a lot better why did they change it, maybe because they wanted modern viewers to watch it, perhaps? |

|
| I find it funny how the video is also 25 minutes almost the length of anime episode. And I enjoyed this a lot more than the anime episode XD |

| It's not great, but it's not THAT bad either. As an avid fan of the AA series, I actually enjoyed it. Even if both, the animation and voice acting suck, I find this watchable. I was expecting something a little bit more like the cutscenes from the AA5 and AA6 games though. Boo :( As for the opening, it was so weird and awkward watching 3 grown men running like that! Whyyyy, lol. Everything was so cringeworthy. The ending was okay. |

| Animation was poor and although Yuuki Kaji sounds better then I thought, he is still not nearly as good as Takayuki Kondou (once, again, I'm ranting about stupid recast). The rest of the voice actors were fine. As for pacing, it was alright, I guess. Will keep watching it so far. |

| It was alright. Would have rathered Bones, but as a lover of AA, I'm willing to give it a chance. While I do know all the Japanese names, I would have rathered Crunchyroll take the effort to localize the names in their subs though. |
They'll adapt from the first episode to Justice for All. |
| French viewer. Sorry for my bad english :) ! |
| boring op boring ed boring case did not like the animation or chara design 3/10 |

Nah it's alright, sorry for how I said it, it might have sound rude. |
| |
| Btw, why Capcom chooses A-1 picture to do the adaptation instead of P.A Works (who does the trailer for PLvsAA) or Bones (who does the cut-scene of Dual Destinies and PLvsAA) ? |

Well, he is good voice actor, but I don't think he fits for the role. Especially since there's already absolutely perfect cast. Which is still used in the games, including upcoming Ace Attorney 6. |

| It's in the little kid's timeslot, so I wasn't expecting much at all, but this makes cheesy shows like CSI and Law and Order seem like brilliant works of art. He should put on a pair of sunglasses after the case and give a lame pun. |

| I'm not sure on Yuki Kaji as the role of Phoenix. The whole thing felt like it had a really low budget and I was disappointed. I don't like the OP or the ED. It doesn't feel right to me. The main points of the case were left in but as others have said, the pacing was weird. Hoping the next few episodes are better. |
 |
| I liked the first episode. The art style was kinda average to me, not as great of the game art but I understand that too much detailed art would be hard to animate... However the voice acting was good and I'm glad that crunchyroll decides to use the english name in the subtitles instead of the japaneses names (I know that the japanese names are the original but I recognize them by the english name). |
 |
I'm surprised no one said a thing about this, it was a nice nod to the series |
| I love the ace attorney games, but I honestly feel like the game hasn't been translated well in the first episode. I feel like if you haven't played the games, the case would seem really rushed. A lot of dialogue and shots were exactly like the game, but that just doesn't work in a tv show. It's a fun watch for the fans, but it just doesn't like a good anime for people who haven't played the game. The 'cross-examination' for example, is really out of place like that in a tv show. I'm looking forward to the next episode, but that is only because I was already into the franchise. |
| Not bad so far, I actually enjoyed the episode even with the cheap ass looking animation. I do wish A-1 Pictures gave more priority to this. |
Also this :) Trucy! |

Rukodaime said: I did not play the game(s), but...this anime is definitively bad. Trying to copy the game doesn't not work in this anime... This anime is just a joke : - The name of the protagonist are a joke : Naruhodo and Yahari ? - This case is a joke : They give us the culprit from the start... - The fingerprints of Yahari are on the weapon by pure luck (no way the actual culprit could have known about it) => If the fingerprint of Yahari are found on the weapon, this mean our true culprit did not even take the time to clean it. How come nobody talk about another pair of fingerprints ? (without even mentionning that the culprit has been in the house touching everything) - This case is even more a joke : The first "revelation" is done by using an hint we did not even know about it (time). Naruhodo just glance over the list of evidence and find it. Right... (it's ok for a game when you are the ONE looking for the answer). - A lot of stuff does not even make sense : Culprit => I did not want to get in the apartement ; Judge => Why did not use the phone in the appartment ? ; Culprit : There was a shortage of electricity. - The first revelation should have been enough to at least make the witness unreliable. But, the judge does not really care, - The final revelation (time lag)... you already probably found out by the middle of the episode. Basically, nothing stands out : the case, the character or the animation. Dropped. (I can not believe the rating of this anime is over 8...). How about playing the games? They first 3 and 4-5 are localized, you can get the first 4 and use the roms on a DS emulator, the first 3 are also on GBA with English options. Get an emulator or buy them for your phone. |

| How does the anime dare to remove something that was present in the game?! How dare they remove Mia's explanation how to press the witness and how to present evidence to the court by clicking on... oh wait... no, but seriously, when I read "endearing characters"... come on! AS IF you found them endearing in what was essentially the gameplay tutorial (and the obviously necessary removal of these elements are what made the episode seem "rushed" in the first place). I won't buy it. Put down the nostalgia tainted glasses, folks! |
|
| Lol wth is up with that hand? They showed that guy wearing a sleeveless XD and now he suddenly has full sleeved court and shirt XD. I know this is nitpicking but that's really just careless. |
| I wish they kept the music from the games, oh well. Still not as bad as I expected though, I'll keep watching it. |

 |
| 8.33? Seriously? Anyway, the episode was really bad. It's bearable only because I've already played the game. I'm not sure I will watch the whole thing... I really hope it picks up in the next episode. |

Let's just say they were "off-mark". Mia should have said something along the lines of "think outside the box", instead it was unnecessarily complicated by using "think from inside out". |
|
| The pacing sucks in this anime adaptation. It feels really rushed. Maybe it's because instead of you taking your time to think the solution in the game they just solve the case really fast in their head. I hope they change this because it really felt like solving the case was effortless. It felt like a speed run of the game really |
