Welcome to the [great] revival of Ace Attorney facts! The purpose of this account is to share trivia and information about the Ace Attorney series to those who may not know, or want to know!

Below is a little about me, and my account.

// I'll be busy today, but at some point later I would like to open a google form for fact submissions, so watch out for that.

Despite featuring Maya as a main character throughout, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright is the only game featuring her to NOT feature any sort of spirit channelling.

This was done on purpose, to not conflate the "rules" of how magic operates in Labrynthia.

[Ace Attorney Facts @AA_Facts2]

One of the greatest games of all time.

Takarazuka Revue, an all-female theatre troupe based in Japan, has actually done four separate adaptations of the Gyakuten Saiban series!

The first two are loosely inspired by Rise From The Ashes and Farewell, My Turnabout (?). The latter are original. Uploads exist of each one.

lrt i want to go to gyakuten joypolis!! i found these pics a while back

[Ace Attorney Facts @AA_Facts2]

@Alicia_7528 Oh, my! Thank you for bringing this to my attention; I'll see if I can try to work a way around it later.

[Ace Attorney Facts @AA_Facts2]

No one has gotten it yet, so I figured I'd post the answer.

The character I was thinking of was Yumi Temgashima from Gyakuten Saiban in Joypolis, a Japanese exclusive event.

Hence, the "most obscure" Ace Attorney character I could think of. More info on the event below!

[Ace Attorney Facts @AA_Facts2]

I saw this and wanted to try and see if it could get the most obscure Ace Attorney character I could think of.

Can anyone guess the character I'm thinking of, based on these incorrect results? The third result was nonsense so I'm putting a character I think makes a good hint.

This is sourced from this article, which has a lot of interesting details in it that I will definitely be coming back to!

Returning to this with an actual hidden detail now- Shih-Na has a forked tongue during her breakdown!

Interaction bait, what's your favourite detail in ace attorney. It can be ANYTHING, as long as it's something you don't immediately see

[Ace Attorney Facts @AA_Facts2]

Apologies for the light paraphrasing, I'm being constrained by the website's text limit.

In a 2017 interview, director Takeshi Yamazaki describes some early gameplay of Gyakuten Kenji (Ace Attorney Investigations), back when Ema Skye was still meant to be the protagonist!

Originally, the game was set to take place over the seven year time-gap between AA3 and 4

... "that let her see traces left on a crime scene you couldn't normally see."

A potential early version of the Argument / Rebuttal system is discussed.

"Or you’d perform forensic investigation, followed by a questioning. ... As the investigation progressed, you'd be [quizzed]"

[Ace Attorney Facts @AA_Facts2]

@Alicia_7528 Actually, the VR-20 cast didn't even cross my mind because I barely know anything about it! I've done some digging into it and struggled to find a lot of concrete information (as I cannot read Japanese), so picking a character would have been hard.

One day, hopefully!

According to a developer Q&A for Gyakuten Kenji 2 (Prosecutor's Gambit), the purpose of the trap on Tabby Lloyd's backpack is for her to catch food!

"Whenever she has to stake out for an article, she's able to catch food from her trap. [Not to capture people for interviews]."

[Ace Attorney Facts @AA_Facts2]

@TimeWhaleCeo Yes! In this screenshot, she's been cast in a movie and is acting as a cage fighter against Yumi and is the defendant of the third case.

@AA_Facts2 I did it when I was in Japan last summer. I only had time to the first case (just a basic frank sahwit one) with Google Translate but it was very surreal to play, to me, new ace attorney. We watched a dude play the “expert” final case, the breakdown of the killer was crazy 😭

[Ace Attorney Facts @AA_Facts2]

@SamTheFoolish Oh my goodness! Thank you for the added screenshots, these are wonderful!

I find it so interesting that the art style they went with for Joypolis was the Mobile Trilogy HD art style, rather than the modern HD trilogy style.

Thank you for sharing these!

[Ace Attorney Facts @AA_Facts2]

@MetaCykescology Always willing to help a fellow scholar! Originally, I was tempted to go with The Queen of England from The Great Ace Attorney Takarazuka, or a manga character, but thought Yumi would be funnier.

This is me, by the way. This is what I look like.

fem kristoph adds a whole extra flavour its sooo good

For more information, I would recommend simply reading the fandom-wiki's page on the event, as I'm not entirely read up on it. There's also some footage of the event, as I *believe* it has recently gone up again!

Joypolis is a japanese theme park branch, and 'Gyakuten Saiban in Joypolis' was an event exclusive to the Odaiba, Tokyo location. There was also a Gyakuten Kenji in Joypolis event that was held, all of which featured original cases!

Yumi is the victim of case 3, "Turnabout Don."
