What I believe might happen is a sequel based on that meteorite fragment the blue-skinned villain escaped with near the end of GT. We don't know who those guys were to begin with (except that they were foreigners looking to get their hands on the meteorite fragment and its powers), and what they intend to do with that fragment. That's some of the only things Takumi left open for interpretation... and to give himself something to hook up a sequel with.

Or something else entirely.

So a second meteorite lands in a separate part of the world, commence similar adventure

Seems a bit far fetched, don't you think?

I think a good idea might be to have Sissel become the next Ray and feature a brand new cast.

I also think thats a good idea :)

Yeah can see it now.

New Ghost: Wh-wha? What happened to me?! Why's my body down there?!
Sissel: *wakes up from snoozing on a pile of junk* Ah well looks like a new dead guy, interesting.
New Ghost: What happened to me? Who are you?

Etc etc

Though the problem with having Sissel as a brief mentor is that they both need to occur in the same universe which means we need another meteorite to hit.

That or the vet could just uncover something REALLY unusual when Lynne takes Sissel for a checkup.

What about Lynne being a guide/mentor?

What about the piece that's still inside Sissel's body? That can be were the new guy gets his powers from. The real problem would be why they don't bring the guy back to life afterwards.

Er...the question is more how are they going to get the piece from Sissel?
That kinda involves a bit of brutal invasive surgery on a much-loved character.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but they don't have to remove the fragment from Sissel's body; to have a character get ghost power, all you need is having that character die near Sissel.

The way he voiced the question it sounded like he intended for the character to have the fragment in his body as he stated

"We'd have to think of some way he wouldn't come back to life".

Though yes dying near a lazy relaxed cat seems a good way to bring in the powers plus the mentor role.

If they made a Ghost Trick sequel, I'd just like to know why the guys trying to get the meteorite were blue. Were they ALIENS? FROM SPACE?

I have thoughts on this.

The way I see it, there are two possibilities for Sequel-Like situations that could happen.

1. Gameplay Sequel, no ties to first game's story/cast
This would probably be the most obvious choice, assuming people are wanting a sequel for more GT gameplay rather than character development. Because of the ending of the original, the only way the original characters could make an appearance is if they were in the background or something, because the characters don't remember anything about the plot (except for maybe Sissel).

2. Characters "Sequel" - One or two characters show up in another game
This would probably be what I prefer. Rather than make an entirely new game, have one or two of the characters come back for another game as a side/cameo character, whether that be Ace Attorney or a new Takumi game. I could easily see meeting an older, middle-aged Lynne in one case of GS6 or something. Maybe there was a case she worked on a long time ago that has had a sudden development and Phoenix gets some info from her or something. (Sissel could be asleep in the background or could keep climbing on Phoenix or some kind of slapstick thing, assuming he hadn't died by then.) Of course, that would also be confirming that GT happened in the same universe as AA, which I wouldn't mind but might make things more complicated.

I think it would be a disservice to the original plot to have a Ghost Trick 2 where Sissel dies and gets hit with a meteorite again or something.

Whoa, whoa! Did you even play Ghost Trick? Sissel is dead at the end! And he has been hit by the meteorite! That's the whole reason why a sequel with (part of) the main cast would be possible!

As for your arguments, I don't think it's impossible to have a sequel featuring both, a true Ghost Trick 2 with the evolution of the GT gameplay, and a plot that builds on the original (which I've already explained is possible even with the way the original ended).

I wouldn't like to see Lynne in AA. I keep to the idea that even if GT plays in the same universe as AA, it's probably not the same planet. Of course, I can't say anything about other Takumi games, but I'd rather see them in another Ghost Trick game than anywhere else.

Sissel didn't die at the end!
And I was talking on more of a narrative level. It would ruin a lot of the first ghost trick if one days Sissel just wakes up dead again.

I was just using that as an example, although I would like to someday see some hints of GT in AA. I generally tend to think it takes place a couple decades before AA.

I feel like GT wouldn't need Sissel in the next game. The twist was so good

that I would expect them to come up with something completely new.

Like maybe because of the Temsik exposure, some people born in that year could have natural abilities that wouldn't awaken only when you die. I guess those wouldn't really be ghost tricks as such, but some connection to the ghost world without being dead themselves could work.

Or we could find out about the planet where the Temsik comes from. I mean there were already blue people in this one so why not set it in space somewhere

Or some crazy-assed idea that only the makers of GT can come up with because I feel mine are too logical. Either way I so would love a sequel to this game

^ hey! haha I take it you don't want Sissel as the protagonist either? Not that I have anything against him.
