Everything GREAT About Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney!


Episode 3: Turnabout Serenade

Spoilers!

(Obviously...)

"Starting things off with the Gavinners performing Guilty Love!" *3 wins*

(Romein LeTouse appears) "Meeting with the victim of the case before his demise." *ding*

"The Guitar's Serenade is such a lovely song, even if the footage is a bit overused later on the second day of the trial. I can definitely see why Apollo set it as his ringtone in later games." *ding*

"Also, Klavier's guitar catching on fire." *ding*

"Took a while to notice that Lamiroir's not wearing her brooch at the end of her performance. Becomes much more important later on." *ding*

(In Lamiroir's dressing room) "It's pretty rare for the hero to meet with the victims in their last moments and hear their final words." *ding*

(Apollo warning Ema that she'll run out of snackoos) "Hahahahahahahahaha..." *ding*

(The mixing board minigame) "Yep." *ding*

(The judge wanting to visit the chief justice's son who has an incurable disease) "Foreshadowing." *ding*

"Luminol testing is back!" *ding*

(Machi's reason for feigning blindness) "I really didn't see this coming. Machi Tobaye isn't blind, but Lamiroir certainly is!" *3 wins*

"The stakes in this case have now risen since the victim's been revealed to be an Interpol agent." *ding*

(Lamiroir: It was him! It was Mr. Daryan!) "What a way to end the first trial. And the best part: she's right!" *2 wins*

(Trucy telling Apollo her father's on a "top-secret mission") "Final case-shadowing." *ding*

"Valant Gramarye." *ding*

"Our first look into the history of Troupe Gramarye." *ding*

(Valant walking out the door like a normal human while still being his magician self) "Hahahahahahahahaha..." *ding*

(At the detention center) "Setting up for a later interview with Lamiroir interpretting." *ding*

"Also, building up to the reveal that Machi understands English, albeit a little." *ding*

(Daryan giving our heroes directions to Klavier's office) "Helpfulness! From the real culprit, of all people." *ding*

(Talking about the Borginian coccoon) "Motive-shadowing." *ding*

"The scene with our heroes finding Lamiroir is very tense and outright terrifying." *ding*

(Apollo: ...Valant Gramarye! ...Using the door like an average muggle, no less.) "Harry Potter reference!" *ding*

"Cross-examining Machi and Lamiroir." *ding*

(Apollo demonstrates the igniter while the judge is holding it) "Hahahahahaha... no." *ding*

(Lamiroir's testimony pointing to the shooting during the second set) "What a way to turn things around." *ding*

"This case really does highlight the flaws of the legal system what with the judge not acknowledging Apollo's indictment of Daryan Crescend despite all the facts pointing in his direction. Why? Because there's always that old saying: 'Evidence is everything in court.' A flaw that Daryan had somehow taken advantage of during the whole case." *ding*

(Daryan's breakdown) "Yep!" *10 wins*

"Though the game never states what Machi needed the money for, it may have been for Lamiroir's sake, considering how close they are." *ding*

"Confetti!" *ding*

"Kind of a bittersweet ending now that Machi's been arrested for smuggling a Borginian coccoon, but at least he won't be executed." *ding*

(Lamiroir considers an eye operation) "Facing your fears!" *ding*

(Apollo: Next time you write a ballad... Trucy: ...Have them catch the killer at the end!) *ding*

Total Win Score: 47

Award: New Ringtone!


A/N: Done and done. Once again, please read and review.

Heads up, I will do all of Turnabout Succession as a single chapter, since it revolves around Phoenix's last trial in his original run as a lawyer.
