Why do you think they named Odoroki "Apollo Justice?"

Personally, I don't know what to think.

I think Apollo comes from his passionate heart burning red thing since Apollo
is the name of the sun god in both Greek and Roman mythology I dont know about
Justice though
maybe his full name is translated to his passionate heart burning red is
to serve Justice :yuusaku:???
anyway thats just me thinking out loud

As I stated earlier:

Me in the 'It's Official' thread wrote:
Apollo was the god of more than just sun/light.

I'd pay attention to the bold part:



Wikipedia wrote:
In Greek and Roman mythology, Apollo (Ancient Greek Ἀπόλλων, Apóllōn; or Ἀπέλλων, Apellōn), the ideal of the kouros (a beardless youth), was the archer-god of medicine and healing, light, truth, archery and also a bringer of death-dealing plague.

As the patron of Delphi ("Pythian Apollo"), Apollo was an oracular god. He was the prophetic deity of the Delphic Oracle, as well as one of the most important and many-sided of the Olympian deities. Apollo also had dominion over colonists, over medicine (mediated through his son Asclepius), and was the patron defender of herds and flocks. As the leader of the Muses (Apollon Musagetes) and director of their choir, he is a god of music and poetry. Hymns sung to Apollo were called paeans.

That just gave me a whole new opinion on Apollo Justice.

I'm no longer bothered by it anymore. :P

It's still a crap name.

Sun/Light - Passionate Heart Burning Red


The only thing "burning" about Odoroki is his red suit. That's not to dismiss him. I love his character. However, he's not exactly what I would call "hot-blooded", and basing his name on that aspect fizzles instead of sparks.

Quote:
Truth - Truth & Justice


And there was no other, normal sounding name with these connotations?

Quote:
Oracule Powers - Minuku


Oracles saw the future. It's not a catch all for psychic lie detectors.

Quote:
Patron Defender - Defence Attorney


Okay...

But, you know, it's not just the Apollo part that's an issue. It's also the name as a whole. Justice is just so lame, so cheesy. I can't take him seriously as a character, which is a pity because I really do love Odoroki a lot.

True, I still don't see where "A Passionate... yada yada" comes from.... but I still quote it sometimes, because it rolls off of your tongue.

In the Japanese she calls him "Mr. Odoroki" so chances are she'll be calling him "Mr. Justice" in the English. Which has so much potential for sarcasm, I kind of hope she doesn't say it too often >.>

Guys, while looking at the phoenix(myth) article in Wiki... I found this:

"According to the Greeks the phoenix lived in Arabia next to a well. At dawn, it bathed in the water of the well, and the Greek sun-god Apollo stopped his chariot (the sun) in order to listen to its song."

.........Woah.... Ok, well it may not have much to do with Apollo Justice's name, but I thought it would... maybe. :/

Wouldn't it be "Mr. Apollo", given the name order?

Actually, I thought Odoroki is his first name. Aren't Japanese naming conventions always family name first, then given name? In Japanese, he is Housuke Odoroki. Housuke would be his family name. Odoroki would be his given name, and as such, his first name.

.....They just say the last name commonly, that doesn't mean Odoroki is his first name.

In Japanese, it's Housuke Odoroki. Therefore, in English, it's Odoroki Housuke.

Alright, alright. But that still doesn't mean Odoroki is his first name.

Besides, it's been confirmed to be Apollo Justice anyway. I don't see a Justin Apollo anywhere. :P

Housuke is his given name. Odoroki his his surname. In Japanese, he is Odoroki Housuke. It's written as Housuke Odoroki on CR because all the Japanese names are written in a Western style. Everyone in GS4 calls Odoroki by his surname (except Odoroki when he's talking to himself, I think).

This sounds like an opening for some really silly Phoenix/Apollo yaoi. Hehhe...


It would have been funnier if Apollo's last name was 'Reede' in the English translation. You can still make puns out of that, and it would compliment Phoenix's last name too.

Only problem is, if they opened a law firm together, one could confuse it for a literacy office. =P

...Your intelligence amazed me. Oh and that just gave me fanfiction ideas, ok I'll stop now.

But seriously, I only posted it because it seemed to refference to the relation of Apollo and Phoenix... which *could* have made Apollo a more fitting name for Housuke, but I guess not. :/

The other minor characters & witnessess may have totally different names, but these are like the real main characters in the game, like Apollo Justice.

I don't mind "Apollo" (it ties in with the whole God/Mythology thing like Phoenix does) but "Justice" just sounds odd. It's not a very common surname. Is it saying he's like a god of justice or something?
