| Meh, if anyone here haven't play the game yet and watches the anime - do yourself a favor and play the game first. There are DS emulators that can run it perfectly. |
 |
| Not impressed at all, it was a case even a novist could solve and they were all impressed?? ... Must have been really dumb huh.. |
 |
| I think, the EP was ok. not actually a masterpiece, but just a fine show, though. I liked the re-arrangeration of objection and cross-examination themes. Ending is in a little bit lower level than opening, I think. One thing disliked: THE ANIMATION. Just like in an old shounen- anime show from the beginning of this century. |

Actar said: After so many years, they finally made a Phoenix Wright, er, Gyakuten Saiban anime. Really wonder why they took so long to get to it. I think it's nice to have it now since the games play in 2016. The episode was okay, I'm fine with it. I have no real issues with the voice acting but the animation could have been much better. The OST is nothing memorable but I couldn't help but grin when Objection 2001 was played. Lokking forward to Pursuit ~ Cornered. The pacing could have been handled better but they had to stuff everything into the first episode, otherwise it would have been weird. All in all, I found this episode acceptable but at the same time I'm expecting it to improve in the future. |
| It wasn't bad but it wasn't really good either |
| The ending is the best thing about this. Anyway, I hope people don't watch this before actually playing the game. |
| It was Watchable? felt like they rushed it but this is essentially the "tutorial" case if I recall correctly so the pace could sort itself out now. Don't think the VA suits Ryuuichi. Only done the first 2 cases in the game so need to get back to it, don't plan on sticking with the Anime when/if it goes past what I've played. |
 |
| never played the game but this was pretty cool. looking forward to the next episode. |
| Not a big fan of the Japanese names. Would've much preferred that they subbed the localised names. As expected the tutorial case was extremely simple. Looking forward to some of the later cases. I'm sad that we didn't get to see Phoenix get a toupee chucked in his face. RIP Mia? |

Nick_Pyro said: Danila_Naumov said: Seems childish and lame, the way they behave in the court aside it is still a wonder how this is so popular. Music, the story, the quirky characters, finding the way to proving your client not guilty. The games are pretty great. Actually how you describe it seems to be my problem with episode 1 of the anime. The first episode misses some things. I'm not a fan of the pacing much, nor the OST. I don't know. Maybe I've spoiled myself listening to the video game and orchestrated OSTs to the point where anything new doesn't sound good It's watchable. Whether OST or animation, I feel like the The First Turnabout does not give off the feeling of a threat, it's not made out to be any type of danger to anyone. I know it's the first case, it's suppose to be easy, but even when you play the case, there is a sense of urgency to prove it. It does not feel lame because it's designed to not feel lame. There are tonal shifts. One minute it's goofy, and then it gets serious. To me, it feels kinda glossed over. The frame is there for The First Turnabout, but the feeling isn't there. Even Naruhodos dorkiness seems hollow. In terms of pacing, I feel that was because it a more of an introductory episode to the format for the newer audience, also the ingame court case vs real time is very different, so it would of course be definitely be faster. I do hope that they will slow down the pacing for the next Turnabouts. Which I do believe that is what they are gonna do especially if they plan to cut each case into 2-3 episode per case. Now the OST was okay, the gavel sound wasn't like the sound in the games, but that's just me nitpicking at smaller details. Otherwise the ost fit like in the games. The ending song was great, I liked it. Anyways cheers to the next episode. Otherwise we would have to shout and posture ourselves to the alike "OBJECTION!" if it fucks up. |
| Pretty lame as expected. |
 |
| I don't know if it was the animation or the OST but I never felt any sort of urgency like we do in the game. This is going to be hard to watch for the ones who are new to the series. And as somebody said, in the anime it somehow looks a very easy case to solve. Maybe because we have to solve it ourselves in the game, but no can't really say it captured the feel well enough.. A disappointing start. I hope it gets better later on. |
 |
| I had low expectations but it seems pretty good, they seemed to pay attention the the original. and edgeworth lookin fine. |
  |
| Not gonna lie. I thought Phoenix slept in the office. It was nice knowing he has a house/apartment. |
  |
| That low tier animation That crappy art Them plot twists that I could see coming from miles away That unfitting Yuki Kaiji voice acting Them awkward and unfunny jokes That RUUUUSHED pacing Them out of place video game mechanics I haven't even played Ace Attorney and I've only watched one episode but I already feel sorry for the fans of the games |

| I don't like the animation but guess i have to get used to it. The courtroom scenes were so over the top but i liked it, good laugh. Face offs seems to be interesting but IMHO i might drop it if it doesn't has fixed no. of episodes. |
 |
| The animation is quite strange but just need to get used to it.But as for the episode itself I feels like I'm just playing the game over xD. Next episode will be interesting... |
| It was alright, wasn't expecting much. |
| Not bad for a first episode. Like I said I'm definitely watching this. Kinda remind me of the games, just gave me feels to replay it again. NDS where's my NDS..!?? Oh there's only the emulator, alright then!! >:D |

It is already confirmed to be a two-cour http://www.forums.court-records.net/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=31650&start=40 Thanks for the info! I just wish the show just doesn't only have case/week but a overarching story to it as I have no idea about the VN (as I'm new to anime). |

| Thought this first episode was ok/average. Not a fan of the animation, but I'll watch a few more episodes before deciding if it's worth following. |
| I wish the art was a little different, but so far I like it. I'm looking forward seeing Maya and Edgeworth. |
| It looks a bit low budget, but it was quite a pleasant surprise. A-1 actually did a great job adapting the prologue, and even captured the spirit of the game. Of course they skipped some filler dialogue, but I thought people knew you can't keep every single line from a game/VN/book? Honestly it would've been pretty bad if the prologue took two episodes, it's not even that important, it's just a tutorial for the game. I was a bit disappointed that the OST was mostly new, but they still kept the important songs. It's good to have a mix of new and old, rather than being completely new, or just lazy and using everything from the game. The new songs kind of fit well in the franchise. They'll probably use more of the game's OST, like Pursuit, but it would be more fitting for the end of Turnabout Sisters, than using such a great song for the tutorial case. |

 |
| man that was rushed |
| i don't know everything, i only know what i know also your waifu is shit |
Really cheap animation, probably same A-1 team as Denpa Kyoushit |
 |
| As someone that has never played or seen the game, I didn't mind Yuki Kaji's voice at all tbh although I think that maybe they could have gotten someone more fitting The episode itself wasn't bad at all and I liked the way the case unraveled and seeing Pheonix and his chief work together was nice.....I felt bad for his friend though...Now he's all alone with the woman he loves :( Art and animation were okay, the OP was also okay but that ED was really good....Decent start to the series and I'm very curious to see the next episode because seeing that the Chief is dead shocked the hell out of me and made me sad TwT |
| Not a fan of the animation. Reminds me a little bit of Denpa Kyoushi and I hated that show. But aside from that, this first episode was pretty nice. I think I'm going to enjoy this one. I loved that ED. That ending though. |
  |
| was expecting 3DS anime cut scenes animation. Really disappointing. The court was very anticlimatic. Let's see if slower court scenes will make it better. |
| Well the animation kind of remind me of Rockman,,, being Capcom let's see how the story unfolds |
 |
| Animation's alright. Not bad, but not really that great either. I wish they'd used some tracks from the games in the OST though...the cross examination music would have been great to hear again. Also kinda wish whoever subbed it would switch the names with the ones from the English game. It's gunna be a bitch to learn all these new names. ;c Plus all the puns in the names were golden. April May, Will Powers, Wendy Oldbag....aw well. Still super excited though. Can't wait for the next ep. :D Maya!! <3 |

| Noooo not Yuki Kaji's voice :( For a first episode, it was a bit boring, I hope it will get better for next week |
| Okay, so Naruhodo's first client is his own childhood friend. Good guy at heart and it looks like a pretty skilled craftsman for making that "Thinker" statue" but bad at both luck and attitude. It seems to get serious, at least until Naruhodo saying something about that contradiction thing. Yup, to learn more about attorney but not to be so serious all the time... IT'S A KEEPER. |

| Okay, this was plain bad. I don't know any of the source material, but an adaptation has to be able to stand on it's own legs. I don't know if it's a good adaptation, but it was a bad episode. The charactes are annoying, the humor doesn't work and the pacing is totally off. |
  |
Tokoya said: I'm probably going to enjoy this regardless but I wanna know how it was from an adaptation point of view? It was perfect, seriously, there was like one scene that was a bit different than in the game, if they keep this up, this is going to be an amazing adaptation, I really like the fact that they also implanted the cross examination and objection theme from the game as well. |
Heldengeist said: Well you have to realize this is the first case in the first Phoenix Wright game. It starts off with a very easy case to teach you the basics. They'll get much more intense from here on out, with much better characters. I highly recommend you give the second episode a watch, at least. c:Okay, this was plain bad.

It was the one from the first game, I assume? That's the only one I really know like the back of my hand. It must have been quite different from the original, cause I went back to the court scenes after I finished watching it, and even listening for it, I couldn't pick it out.I really like the fact that they also implanted the cross examination and objection theme from the game as well. |

| Played 3 of the games on emu and even watched the movie. Im really not sure i wills tick with it cause i pretty much remember what happens anyways and its even worse for people who clearly remember all the cases. The animation quality is really crappy and the art..well its just like i remember it in the games. Also it feel like they made a game you can watch in anime form..instead an anime with the story of the games |
| -I didn't like the OP and ED but I loved to hear some of the OSTs from the game -Visuals are okay, tho it could have been a bit better. -TBH the setting and the 1st case was very well adapted, because it was the tutorial case, even if it was a bit rushed. -The voice acting was meh it felt off. 4/5 because I was waiting for so long. |
