Everything GREAT About Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth 2!


A/N: Hello, everyone. This is the moment a lot of you have probably been waiting for, and what I've been wanting to do since I began this little project. With this being a review of the unofficial fan translation, all names for the characters and locations that make their appearance in this game will be named as they are by the translation team. For example, Hakari Mikagami is "Justine Courtney" and Tateyuki Shigaraki is "Raymond Shields."

Ready? Here we go!
