Okay, I might be talking way more serious business than a videogame here, but... I'm specialising in psychiatry, and I've spent a lot of time with people who are dealing with crisis in their lives. What I've learned is that going emotionless or even exessively happy is not a very uncommon way to cope. So here's a counter-argument: what if Klavier didn't show emotion not because he didn't care but because he really did? |

I like them both, Kristoph definitely has more personality and a better back story with Phoenix but, I just can't resist Klavier's face Plus I love having Klavier strumming away at his air guitar as my phone screen saver! Klavier is one for the fangirls and he's a dream for fanfic writers, because everyone loves a story about a rock star! So yeah, Kyouka Garyuu, I love you! EDIT: Seems like I can't spell... sorry Kyouya |

I dig Klavier. I have to admit though: Kristoph, while infuriating, was a really great character. Objectively, he's the superior, more fleshed-out Gavin. However, that doesn't change my opinion. Klavier is my favourite Ace Attorney character from any game. True story. |

Mmm, I have to say that I do like both the Gavin brothers but Kristoph is my favourite character no contest. It might just be I have a thing for the "bad guys" (seriously, I liked practically every criminal) but his personality is just ... I dunno. He's just really awesome :D ... I just can't express him in words haha :P |

Post subject: | Re: Which Gavin do like (or hate) more? |
I pick Klavier. I think he makes a good rival for Apollo. Though hardly comparable in depth to the / relationship, I think the / relationship as rivals has fair potential. For now, I agree with the view that Klavier's apparent lack of caring/emotion at times is just him keeping it bottled up inside. I think (in the distantly possible GS5) Klavier and Apollo will each receive a healthy dose of extra character development. On the other hand, I don't think Kristoph has any reason to return in a major role (at least, I hope he doesn't! he's caused enough trouble...), and that's why his character was made as epic as possible in AJ. As has been said, Klavier is just such a nice guy! A simple nice-guy image for a prosecutor is quite refreshing. I agree that the whole "German prodigy prosecutor" thing is getting a bit overdone. (Apparently, in the Japanese version, that trope is American prodigies?) ...Especially the prodigy part; that's a pretty cheap way to convey that "whoa, the attorney you're playing as is extraordinarily awesome; s/he can even beat the unbeatable!" But at least Klavier makes the most entertaining use of the German part: his gratuitous German catchphrases are cool and memorable. Achtung, baby~! (...And I've heard that, in Japanese, he spews gratuitous English, right? ...Win. xD) is a fascinating villain, but as a person he's nearly impossible to "like." Klavier, meanwhile, is easily likable. I'm not gonna lie; I'm sure it helps that he's pretty and makes pretty music. |

Can't choose... Both of them are likable (and despicable) in their own ways. is badass and all, but I have to agree with Asa Turney here - it's almost impossible to like him as a person. But we're talking video game here, so... <3 Anyways, ...I love his musician persona more than his prosecutor persona, somehow. I kinda sympathize with him, for some reason...maybe it's because of his adorable face that never fails to make me swoon~ *shot* So...yeah, they're both equal to me. <3 I'll give a +1 for Klavi though, just because of his epic Objection voice clip |

Post subject: | Re: Which Gavin do like (or hate) more? |
Kristoph, hands down. The problem I had with Klavier was he was too friendly to Apollo in court, like he was there to help Apollo through his cases and hold his hand the whole way. Godot, both von Karmas and Edgeworth aren't like that in the other games, they just ridiculed Phoenix and only offered sly bits of help when Phoenix was holding the Idiot Ball (when it was obvious to the players who killed who/what evidence needed to be presented). Kristoph has a dark, twisted background that the player is unaware of the entire game, and really, that's why I'm hoping for Apollo Justice 2, so that we might have one final case to wrap everything up with the Gavins, similar to The Bridge to the Turnabout and the Feys. Also, I agree with Regi. I really liked whoever did his in the game. It was kind of feminine, but it still had that masculine quality that fit really well with his character, since he was so meticulous about everything. |

Klavier is a fascinating character. I agree he's a bit too helpful in court, but I don't get why there's anything wrong with having a prosecutor who is actually interested in reaching the truth. To me, 4-4 proved that he had some sort of inner demons and I think there needs to be some case to really get to the bottom of him. 4-4 wasn't good enough in that regard. |

Post subject: | Re: Which Gavin do like (or hate) more? |
Just played the last case of AJ again recently, and it got me thinking about this topic. I'm just going to say now that my character preference is based primarily on character development in general; I prefer characters that are well written, as I'm not really into the fanservice thing (which both characters fall prey to anyways, especially Kantilen). Also, I never actually played AJ in English, I only played it in German, so you will have to excuse me if I miss some of the Euro references to Kantilen's mannerisms ("Achtung, Baby!" Does not stand out particularly much in a text that's entirely in German. I had no idea that they never wrote it as "Respect, baby!" in English, for example.). I didn't even know he was called Klavier for the longest time because of this. I prefer Kristoph anyways. And here's why: Spoiler: AJ spoilers |

I like more Kristoph. Before knowing how he really is, he's nice and kind. However, I don't like his lack of intelligence...man, blue cards , red cards...not the same thing. Klavier it's just annoying, just the "I'm a rockstar I'm famous, love me" stereotype. However (again), I love his music theme. As I said, I'd rather stay with Kristoph. |

Post subject: | Re: Which Gavin do like (or hate) more? |
hmmm...I recently finished Apollo Justice but I forgot what happened in detail for me to analyze lol. But lets see. Let me first state that my opinion of the Gavin is very influenced by my despair of Phoenix's disbarment. For Klavier I believe that he was a different take than the other prosecutors. From the start his heart was set on finding the truth, not wining the case, but to bring justice.However, such mindset did not full fill him as Apollo's rival. In Phoenix's trilogy, it was tensive because the prosecutors were very competitive. And would hammer you to prove with evidence(remember Edgeworth's annoying "what time did it take place because if its not the same time it doesn't prove your case"). In GS4 however it was just Apollo and his bracelet. For Kristoph I hate him.....he is an jackass nailpolish freakass. |

Post subject: | Re: Which Gavin do like (or hate) more? |
I find it interesting how much people hate Klavier for not being an antagonist. I for one thought this great, as every other prosecutor in the series takes the root of starting off as a complete jerk and eventually evolving to not be. It's refreshing to have a prosecutor like him, and it allows you to work together as a team against the real villains (i.e. the murderers). Also, the whole defence attorneys are good but prosecutors are bad thing that the series had going was really irritating, and Klavier sort of put a stop to that. Now I'm hearing the argument that the character isn't very deep, but I disagree. This is a character who needs more development from the next game, sure. We can see that he's changed rather a lot between 7 years ago and the AJ era, why is this? Sure, both Klaviers search for the truth I believe, but I can't imagine young Klavier going so far as to help Phoenix on this journey. And how about Klavier's relationship with his brother? This isn't really touched in the first game, and it deserves a look. But at any rate, I think even now he stands as a decent character. He wants the truth in court, though he's happy to play the game to get one over on Apollo for his own personal satisfaction. He's good in AJ because at first you're led to believe he's an antagonist, but gradually you realise he's a cool guy. He'll put his good friend in prison if he must. He'll put his brother in his prison if he must. All he wants is justice, just he searches for it from the prosecutor's side of the court, rather than the defense. Oh, also I love his character quirks. The whole prosecutor meets rockstar thing, air-guitar, speaking German, totally obsessed with himself. These are all fantastic, and make him an incredibly fun character, along with the brilliant Guilty Love theme tune (The Guitar's Serenade is also great). He's definitely the funnest prosecutor to sit against...well, except maybe old Godot and his made-up proverbs...but still he's very fun, and I personally love him. He deserves a lot more respect than he gets, and he deserves a role in AA5 because his character (along with AJ) is in desperate need of development. This is why we need another AJ game, not a PW one! Kristoph is a great villain, the moment when you turn against him in 4-1 is pretty epic, his breakdown is fantastic, and his whole look captures his character well. However, Klavier is the one that needs the love. |

Post subject: | Re: Which Gavin do like (or hate) more? |
I like them both, but it is a fact that Klavier needs more character development, while Kristoph, despite some few unresolved issues, has got a pretty solid personality and was a central piece of the plot. Regarding Klavier, I think that he could be a little less... "nice" with Apollo, however, not in a von Karmic sense; it's just that sometimes Klavier hints Apollo during times that it wouldn't make sense for Klavier to do so. It gives us the impression that Klavier chooses guilty defendants on purpose and then challenges Apollo to convict them. The only case he didn't do so was during Turnabout Serenade; in that case, he went all in, even before Daryan was named a suspect. If he acted like that in all other cases, he'd be way more easy to like, in my opinion. However, he is a nice change of pace from the usual "I'm-an-asshole" routine we've been having regarding prosecutors. Even if Edgeworth changed during the series, we still had Franziska, Godot, von Karma and even PAYNE at 3-1 was being a pain in the eye with the usual arroganct stance towards the case and attorneys. The only time when Klavier displays arrogance or anything of the sort is when someone talks about him directly or when he's talking about Wocky (and frankly, the guy deserves it). We all know he teases Apollo more for fun than enything else. Now, about Kristoph. I don't like him more than Klavier for one reason: I don't tend to like villains over "good guys". But leaving that aside, Kristoph was an example of a true "big bad". The way he so perfectly fits the description of a psychopath and his mindset, not to mention class and nice use of language even in the face of despair, brings us that feeling that we're not facing your average Frank Sahwit guy. However, I do believe those black Psyche-Locks deserve cracking. I don't like unsolved mysteries, damn it. |

Post subject: | Re: Which Gavin do like (or hate) more? |
Hmmm, Kristoph. I liked them both though. Klavier just seemed too back and forth, like they couldn't decide whether he should be cocky and rude like most prosecutors, or kind and helpful. So both sides came out sorta awkward. Still, I didn't mind the whole rock-star-prosecutor thing. I can understand some finding it ridiculous, but this is the series where a parrot gives vital testimony in court, my tolerance for weird is pretty high. Plus, his air guitar animation was just awesome. But on the topic, I pretty much felt he was justified in his annoyance in 4-3. If I was performing in front of a thousand people, my instrument caught fire, and I ended up flailing all over the place, I think I'd be pretty ticked too. And a missed cue seems like a little thing, but the end of the song did sound pretty awful because of it. I digress. Kristoph was pretty intriguing to me, even though his motive turned out pretty flimsy. Still, I liked how he talked, his 99% of the time cool composure, and the fact that he was freaking terrifying So yeah, both characters could really benefit from some development, maybe (hopefully?) in GS5. |

You guys make great arguments about Klavier. I too think he's lacking character development which makes me wish Apollo could get a second game. This is a disappointment for me since there was plenty of character development in the first Ace Attorney game for me to love Edgeworth. But about Klavier being too friendly in court, I find it kind of refreshing that we have a prosecutor that isn't obsessed with a perfect win record or obsessed with revenge. Wasn't it proven in case 1-5 that the defense and the prosecution need to work together to make sure justice gets steered in the right direction? |

Kristoph Gavin. Sidenote here: I may be petty, but i felt that takedown on him was not enough. He needs a Dahlia-style takedown. Kristoph is a useless and corrupt attorney. He resorts to tampering and fake evidence to win the case. HE WILL use that tampered message, if he got recruited by Zak. He never used his own logic and investigations. He is lazy as hell, he isn't Phoenix. All that he cares is his name and reputation. So when he isn't recruited, he decided to pin the blame on Wright. I'm sure there are many cases before that he resorts to evidence tampering or even blackmail/harassing the witness. Some of his client must be really is GUILTY(Matt Engarde's style). But for his name and reputation, he used evidence tampering instead of informing the truth. He wanted to be known throughout the country as BETTER Defense Attorney than Phoenix Wright. What i wish, is that if he ever got executed and revived via Fey clan(Deal with this, i never care about it, wearing girl clothing? Fine by me). He needs to be told Dahlia-way. Phoenix: "And that is what you are known for." Kristoph: "!!" Phoenix: " Your name will be recorded throughout the article and history, as the worst, weakest, and useless defense attorney who resorts to evidence tampering, blackmail and murder. Even if you got revived and reinstated as defense attorney, no one will use you, since you are useless. Ever since you were disbarred, you'll ALWAYS become the weakest DEFENSE ATTORNEY!" |

Post subject: | Re: Which Gavin do like (or hate) more? |
I really like Klavier. As others have stated, it's nice to have a "good" prosecutor featured, as all five prosecutors you face in the original trilogy are harsh or corrupt or just useless. Not saying that Edgey and Franzy are bad, per say, but they definitely have those ruthless personalities, and it's cool seeing someone like Klavier who is equally dedicated to his work but has a very fair and friendly aura to him. He proves you don't have to be mean and cold to be driven. I don't understand why this is a bad thing, to have such a "boring" prosecutor in Klavier (I don't think he is, I've just seen him labeled as such because he doesn't have some DARK PAST). I would love to see a Klavier game set before AJ, but that's just me :P |

Weeeeeelllll if it wasn't obvious enough from my profile here, Klavier is my I COULD rant on about why I adore him, but I don't want to make a post 9 paragraphs long. I just adore absolutely every facet of his personality, and design. But I ADORE Kristoph as well. He's snarky comments, his entire demeanor, his calm countenance that was later contrasted, and the fact that he was intelligent in general; there was nothing I disliked about Kristoph, in fact I loved him ! He was a great character, and I just wish he got more screen time, and that he and his amazing brother got more interaction with one another. SO in essence, I like Klavier more, but Kristoph is amazing! The Gavin family is just too pro! |
