Wonder how Phoenix vs. Miles in the next episode is done. |

Wonder how Phoenix vs. Miles in the next episode is done. Hopefully they turn the 5th case into a movie, then pray that after the movie credits we get some announcement that the 3rd game will be adapted. *crosses fingers* Skipping out the 3rd case would be a shame, despite its goofy nature, it is actually a decent case to boot, and the Steel Samurai is quite an important figure to the series. |

| Maya crying breaks my heart, sob. This episode was great. :D I always really liked this case in the games so I'm super excited to see the courtroom scenes animated. Also really glad that whoever subbed this episode used the American localized names. Really was not feeling up to learning all the Japanese names. |
 |
| I don't like how they |
 |
| Maya looks cute and has a cute voice. Edgey sounds really high class and superior like even if his seiyuu is really low class. The first two trials were never that good because they introduced the killer. At least in the last three trials counting the extra was where they weren't shown. With Edgeworth already having that trophy, it looks like they might skip the 5th case but it also means they might adapt it. Hopefully they do, I want to see some Ema Skye. |
| Huge improvement from the first episode. Strong second episode. |
| I laughed at Edgeworth owning a badass car. |
 |
| It looks like the subs are using the English names now. Idk, I kinda want it to keep using the Japanese names since the subs would match what the characters are saying. It's sad to see that Chihiro is gone so soon, but I think this will make room for Naruhodo's growth as an attorney. Decent set up episode, I'm sure I already know who will win the case but lets see how Naruhodo fares against Mitsurugi. Also, I didn't know miso ramen = burgers.......wtf was that..... |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| WTF! Why'd the Chief die? She was hot af! GODDAMMIT!!! New girl's great though, won't deny that. |
 |
| Damn, last episode I thought, holy shit, Mia Fey's really hot. Now I'm having real hard time trying to think about her in a sexual way. Why do you hurt me like this, capcom? |
 |
| THE PIANO RENDITION OF THE STEEL SAMURAI MUSIC MADE ME SO HAPPY <3 Anyway, I think we got a big improvement from the first episode :) The animation still looks choppy though. |
 "You don't only belong to yourself, you know? There isn't anything in this world that belongs only to yourself." |
| Nice second episode! Can't wait for the 3rd! ^_^ |
 |
| Better than the last and still adapted well, but with a few awkward moments (there was no transition between explaining who Edgeworth was and going back to Gumshoe, and they didn't include the conversations with April May). |
| The statement below is true. The statement above is false. |
| Yuuki Aoi voicing Maya/Mayoi!!! That makes all the better. As for the low score on MAL, I can't say I'm surprised given what happened to Chihiro. Even when playing the games, that was the biggest hurdle to get over. But it certainly isn't the last time we see of her though, and that's all I can say without going into major spoiler territory. The best stories come later, with each case, flashbacks, and scattered hints throughout, all leading up to more and more climactic cases. So for those dropping this because of only the first couple of episodes, you're making a huge mistake...which is the opposite of what I would normally say had this been an anime-only title. But since it's based off a game, then it's a given that it starts off slow and builds up. |
| Did anybody notice that they changed the date? In the anime, the trial takes place on the 6th April while it's the 6th September in the game. I wonder why they'd do that, maybe because it's April now? Or they wanted to justify the cherry blossoms... |
Fomkin said: ibraheem234 said: Yeah the police is so incompetent they start a murder trial without a victim.So did Chihiro really died... I don't think so though lol, i found this quite funny actually cuz the detective felt almost dumb enough for that to be an actual possibility. Like, if gumshoe had been the one to find the body instead of phoenix wright, i would have sent another police patrol just to double check she was actually dead xD |

I'm pretty sure Crunchyroll still has both unlocalized and localized sub tracks, and HS rips the latter. In the localized games, Maya's favorite food is burgers instead of ramen, so I guess the localized subs match that. |
Pie is delicious. |
| This actually looked like an anime this time. It was fine. |

Escpacially since they DID admit that it takes place in Japan... in EP1 with the timezone thing, unless you'd start making the case that the statue of liberty... is actually in Japan and the victim in EP1 was actually a Japanese citizen and that the story takes place IN New York instead of Japanifornia. |

| Definitely better than the first episode! |
| well, i thought she was just fainted, but she actually died.... pretty good build up episode overall. can't wait to see Naruhodo and Mitsurugi in the next episode :) |
 |
| This is ass :[ The adaptation is horribly uninspired straightforward and dull. This is worse than Danganronpa adaptation. Some games can't be adapted this straight. You need to be creative in portraying it instead of just copy pasting parts of the game script :{ Giving it two more episodes, hopefully it becomes an adaptation this franchise deserves. 2/5 |
 |
| Eeeee? Is there any subs with original names like 1st episode? And Ramen changed to hamburgers? Omg. Only 'muricans could do shit like this. This is just pathetic. Edit nevemind, found it. |

| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
Its weird noticing the little changes from the game but really enjoyed it. I love that they still have the textbox with the names and dates appear. Edgeworth, Gumshoe and Maya have arrived! :-D |
Stark700 said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Yeah compared to the previous I thought this episode's case has somewhat of a creepy tone to it at first. Naruhodou made some interesting discoveries before almost getting caught into some lewd mess. Ha, that would of been priceless. No real courtroom session debate yet but I think the episode conveniently sets up for next time.  Waaaaa, why do they have to kill Chihiro that quickly? |
| Dick Gumshoe. What a name. It was an enjoyable episode. I like the new girl. She's cute with MC. |
rsc-pl said: Eeeee? Is there any subs with original names like 1st episode? And Ramen changed to hamburgers? Omg. Only 'muricans could do shit like this. This is just pathetic. Edit nevemind, found it. It have nothing to do with anime translation ... Gyakuten Saiban (JP) game = Ramem Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney game (US) = Hamburguers I have heard that Capcom didn't want many japanese references in the game (from beginning they were planning to release it in overseas, I tought). So, localisation come since the games, and now subs are following this to please fans who have played the (US) version from game. Even myself had played (US) version, because AA wasn't translated for my language. |

| This was better than the first episode. |
| As I expected, now that the tutorial case was covered in the first episode, the pacing is going to be better from now on. I really liked it, I would have prefered if Gumshoe was introduced at the Police Station, because when he entered the bufete the mood changed from "tragic death of a character" to "here comes the good old Gumshoe!". Also, I loved the scene of Maya and Phoenix in the interrogation at the end. I don't remember if there was a similar encounter in the game, but I hope there's more moments like this. |

|
| Functional so far but just imagine what could have been made if the animation was better and the director took some liberties to adapt the story into anime format. Also I still don't understand why they spoil the villain at the very beginning of the case. |
 |
| .... Police sure is dumb in Japan .... An both sides need to know about all the evidence they can't just keep it for themselves ... ... Dafuq |

Like, if gumshoe had been the one to find the body instead of phoenix wright, i would have sent another police patrol just to double check she was actually dead xD Not just the detective, but in general most characters seem to be dumb as hell in this series. The prosecutor looks bright enough not to take a case without a proper forensic report though. Anyway, like others said, it's better than the first episode but still not good enough... going by the preview, seems like the "Ace" is presenting illegally acquired and contaminated evidence to defend his case. I feel like face palming already but I'll save it for next episode. I know what you mean. I know A-1 pictures has never been the best studio ever, but tbh i was expecting a bit more. I think part of the reason y everyones quite lacking in the "basic logical thinking" department might be cuz thats how the game actually is. I mean, they chucked the sister in prison for just being there (which is stupid cuz phoenix was also there so wtf, the fact that he's a lawyer doesn't make him automatically not guilty). Then again i feel that was done cuz the game is about solving cases, so they probably at times sacrifice logical storytelling for good gameplay (wouldnt be the first game to do this). ALso not impressed with how A1 didn't really adapt the game into an anime, its more like they made an anime out of game footage almost, if u know what i mean (too many game quirks and mechanics are kept in the anime, making it feel too little like an anime and too much like a game imo) But maybe thats partly cuz ive never played the games that i feel that way i dunno. In any case, i think this might not be for me, i dunno if ill continue with it |

So you are talking about the first case ... Well ... it was Capcom's idea for games. But I guess that Capcom have not much to do with the anime, maybe a dubbed (will it really happens? omg please "Objection" in english voices) would follow the japanese game. Anyway, is nice to see that some subs do care about this. |
| It was okay adaptation. Yeah i just feel that they couldn't adapt this properly as an Anime. At least it uses the original names and settings. The US version butchered a lot of things just because that dumb idiot localizer. I might drop in to be honest. |
| I am not sure if anyone else noticed, but the first part of that BGM that played when they showed Edgeworth in his car driving to the court was a slowed down remix of "Telling the Truth 2001" |
|
| I didn't play the games but I'm quite sure Chihiro is alive and the whole case is for another purpose. |
| lol,I'm watching this because of only that hot chief of the attorney:D just kidingggg......... well better than the first  |

Yeah, this. 2-4 is my favorite case in the entire series, so I'll be annoyed if they mess it up. 1-5 would be great as a movie or OVA series. Maybe the circus case could be skipped, if they had to skip one, but I'd rather they didn't. |
