Coming out of the Jump Festa stage show: Athena will appear in Ace Attorney 6!

In addition, a demo of the investigation part was shown off confirming the return of free investigations.

More details soon, hopefully...!

Unfortunately they couldn't throw her in the trash (but that could be an interesting idea), so i'm not surprised she's back.
Spoiler:
Te pareva.

We'll see if she'll be playable, but according to what i know, only Phoenix and Apollo are the playable characters.

Update.
And there she is. Oh, look a that. Trucy in a poster.

With Trucy being on that poster it makes me think she's either gonna be a defendant of a witness. Either would be fine with me, come to think of it i think she's the only assistant who hasn't been accused of anything.

I'm pretty sure that Trucy is going to be a defendant based on that screenshot. Welcome to the club Trucy! I'm glad that didn't just completely scrap Athena, that would have been jarring to say the least. I do hope she has a reduced role compared to DD for sure though. With them doing free investigations and a the ability to turn off blatant hints, they've officially fixed my two biggest gripes about DD. Things are shaping up nicely!

This small tidbit actually has me really excited! I enjoy Athena as a character, so I'm glad to have her back. :athena:

The return of free investigations also bodes well, as now we can hope for plenty of hilarious optional dialogue to hunt down.

But the most intriguing tidbit is the Trucy Wright poster. Not just because it might mean having her as defendant or witness.

Spoiler:
Trucy said at one point she would use her magic career to revive the Gramyre name. Will we see Valant in some capacity? Maybe even resolve the connection with Thalassa?


Well, maybe I'm overthinking it a bit. :sadshoe:

I would really appreciate if they followed up on that nagging plot point but right now I'm not convinced that's the focus of the game.

IMO that needs some real dedication. They need to commit to that if and when they decide to pursue it because the right way to do it would involve advancing Apollo and Trucy's characters, which shouldn't be taken lightly.

Apollo and Athena are the team in LA.

Phoenix and Maya will be the team in Kurain. Mark my words.

That's a good point. The last thing we need is an unfocused story. That being said, I don't think it would be too much to ask for a hint of some kind.

Given the Lamiror reference in Turnabout Academy it's at least on their minds.

It looks that Capcom is giving a new look to all the models of the recurring characters, proven by the screnshoots.
Now that it looks like that Trucy is also returning, I hope they make her model more accurate to the original sprites, in DD she wasn't as cute as in Apolo Justice IMO.

By the way, it kind of looks like Trucy's poster starts with "Arumajiki", which was the Japanese name of the Gramaryes. Just a nod, or...?

Can we get a prayer circle going on this?

Also, is the stage show still going on? Will we be getting any more tidbits of news before Jump Festa ends?

The show is over for today. There's one tomorrow too, but with the same content as today (for tomorrow's visitors).

YES!

And I'm hoping for more focus on Trucy and the Gramaryes.

A case set at an entertainment venue... that always bodes well!

In all seriousness, while it's good to see Athena back (it would have been odd for them to just dump her after DD), I'm not really surprised, although I doubt she'll have as big a role in this game. The more exciting return is that of free investigations, which means that not only will we get more of the witty dialogue we all love so much, but also that the team are actually taking things on board and learning from mistakes in DD, which is encouraging.

As for the Trucy issue, I'm inclined to forget about it until more detail is revealed, but what Bolt says about her using the Gramayre name does worry me slightly, given that I don't want them to rush the reveal. That said, we don't know enough about Trucy's role in the game yet, so I'll hold off on making a decision about how I feel about this until more info is given to us.

Actually, on the Gramarye name,
Spoiler: remember in Apollo Justice
when Trucy eventually got the rights to perform Magnifi's magic? Maybe that's happening in this game.

I'm glad that Athena is back and Trucy too to some degree. Maybe this game, DD and the next game will form a sort of a trilogy with common characters like we had the original trilogy. AJ was a mid ground in order to get characters to grow and mature but it also scrapped a lot of original characters. Yeah, we got guest appearances of Gumshoe and Meekins in AJ but that's it. And in DD the only original trilogy character that we got(and didn't appear in AJ) was Edgeworth. So I'm hopeful now. If only they brought Ema back too...

Not much of a surprise for now. Athena's return was just expected and the linear investigations were one of the main complaints about DD. Anyway, still great news.

Athena is back... Great.

I hope they'll at least tone her down a bit. Trucy being a defendant in the first case would be kind of a missed opportunity IMO. In all cases but case 1 the defendant is a real means to explore that character some more. I hope Trucy is defendant in case 2 or 3 so we at least get one case where we finally get to know what's been going on inside her head since AJAA.

I don't think this screenshot is from Case 1 beacuse, well, we've never had investigations in the first case and I don't think we're going to start now. Besides, the first case will most likely happen in Kurain, since Payne is there.

Also, I wouldn't jump the gun with Trucy's poster. It could be there just for a one-off joke in optional dialogue, for all we know.

Good, though if she's not playable then I'd rather she stays mostly to the background. She's a lot more interesting as a playable character than she is as an assistant-type in my opinion.

Hopefully penalties from messing up at the character gimmicks are back in this game, I imagine Mood Matrix would get pretty tense if it had some sort of penalty when messing up at it.

Thank goodness for that! I love DD but having those back will be great. (I'm sure I would have enjoyed Monstorus Turnabout more if you could examine some of the mad objects like that weird monster umbrella in the first scene)

It's kinda hard to make out what the poster says, but it looks like there's something after the word Minuki (&?)
The second line looks kinda like it says "Arumajiki Land", but like I said, it's difficult to be sure at this resolution.

Athena's line is: Sempai, please notice me "Sempai (Apollo), race you to the detention center!"

As far as I know, tomorrow's Jump Festa is just an re-show of what's happened today, so no more new info unfortunately.
We'll probably get more info on later dates but I think that's all we'll get for now. Hoping more news comes soon (like early January because I'm impatient haha).

Me too. This is a bit of a downer. Even if I now know Athena's coming back that isn't really enough to satisfy by itself.

I guess that's why AA6 didn't get a spot in Famitsu this week.

I think her backstory could've been handled a lot better but otherwise I like her as a character. I like her a lot more than Apollo, though I know that I'm in the minority of opinion about that on here.

Yes, Athena is really unlikable, that's why a number of people on neogaf and tumblr has expressed excitement over her return and how they liked her character. Not to mention the fan arts and placing 11th on an official character poll for Japan back in 2013 against characters from all entries of Ace Attorney (excluding PLvsAA and DGS).

Yes, let us base the general consensus on a very small sample size. After all, a lot of people say Ryu from Street Fighter is a boring character in certain forums, it must invalidate his placement as Top 1 in the official worldwide poll of favorite Street Fighter characters Capcom conducted in 2013, right?

Athena is... Well, she could've been handled better and now when I think about her afterwards... She was sort of overbearing. Always going, always correct(unless she was in courtroom), immediately getting along with everyone(except Aura for obvious reasons)... If she had gotten any further some may even say she was like a Mary-Sue. That may be an exeggeration but the point still stands.
