When my brother was playing Dual Destinies, he found Athena's shocked face to be ugly. What face do YOU think is the ugliest? Mine is Means's smile. It creeps me out and is just plain ugly.

Means was a scary character in general. Anyway, I always hated Apollo's shocked face. It just looked so weird. It wasn't as bad as in DD but still.

A lot of Athena's grossed me out. I can't find them but her "shocked" and that cocky smile where she crosses her arms pissed me off. While investigating, I hated the ones where she stroked her hair, got really angry, or began to cry. Also, her "peace" sign. The only one I really liked was when she started to cry tears of happiness near the end

Well, Athena's shocked face is rather goofy. As is Apollo's shocked face. He looks like one silly monkey.

Ugly though... it'd have to be a toss-up between Ted Tonate's

post-breakdown face, when the goggles explode or whatever, and all you see are those little eyes staring back at you

post-breakdown look. Too much of a withered-looking old man, even worse than Manny Coachen's face
and

the phantom's "scared Phoenix mask." God, that was creepy.

Means' smiles was delightfully creepy, especially when he's saying something about the dark age of the law.

I thought Phoenix's leaning over/shocked sprite that appears for a second was creepy; whenever they try to remove someone's pupils in DD high quality it has the potential to look creepy. They did it fine with Edgeworth though...

I actually liked Athena's angry sprite but some of the other ones are a bit weird...
Mr. Edgeworth, do you realize if we played by the rules, we'd be in court right now?

I don't know why, but I simply couldn't stand Apollo's more normal, relaxed co-court pose. I always thought he looked way to buff, and I kept thinking of this picture:

Other than that, I hated Athena's peace animation and the Phantom's mask thing in general.

Athena's "shocked" sprite always struck me as looking extremely awkward.

I'd say the "Ugliest" one goes to Constance Courte to be honest. Her face looks like it was drawn by whoever did the art for AAI. It's too long and her face proportions just look off somehow. Just ugly.

As for Prof. Means, I hated the "smile" thing mainly because it instantly struck me as "New character design with Brushel's smile unfittingly plastered on" End quote. :egg:

Ok. Those are truly horrible. I thought his damage sprites in AJ were bad enough but this is a new low, really.

Maybe it's the bowlcut. It doesn't seem to suit her face.

Yup. Right. The face was supposed to be ugly because Apollo's face was being smashed. My second ugliest face is L'Belle's breakdown face. It is ugly in... well he looks like an ugly and creepy old man. But I think they took it too far on Apollo's face. Phoenix made an okay change from 2D to 3D sprites, and Apollo made a horrible change. His sprites look so awkward and hard to look at.

Also, if you remove the pupils in the first image, colorize it red and add proper lighting, it becomes nightmare-inducing creepy. Like this.

Phoenix' transition isn't that good either. But that's because the concept art is bad. He looks like a bulky Clark Kent in investigations :(

The first time I saw Constance Courte I thought she was suspicious. Her face looks so... smug. I'm surprised Filch hasn't been mentioned yet (though he was supposed to look like a peasant anyway probably), he looks like a creepypasta Spongebob (I swear there were holes in his face or something). Prof. Means was scary as a whole, and...

the scared Phoenix? was absolutely horrifying

I forgot about Filch!! That should be a crime in itself. All his animations were always really annoying and he really struck me as the character that never bathed. Like Sal Manella.

Not ugly, but Apollo's smiling animation looks weird. His smile is seriously too wide. It looks mischievous enough, but it's just too wide and it looks unnatural.

Really. He's got that kind of grin that would propbably put people off and/or make them nervous in real life. And his awkward smile is... well... awkward.

Yeah, because I can't quite tell if he's supposed to look trollish or sincere when it's so caricatured.

Personally, I found that face of hers kind of hilarious, because it looks like she's blatantly yawning with boredom while simultaneously trying to look empathic.

There's a problem with those ones? I still hold that the second one is the most adorable thing since ever. :ron:

The second and the third ones are too cartoony for me (yeah, complaining about that in an AA game. I know). I can't really pinpoint it, but I just think they're...gross

And I couldn't find a proper picture of the third one. That doesn't bother me. It bothers me when she's the defense aide doing that pose from the perspective of the playable character

But that's not "not being photogenic". That's... upsetting, and the worst part of it is that since it's animated, someone has actually made that. On purpose.

I "stumbled" over last friday's DLC for PLvsPWAA which showed some sketches of Maya and a few comments from Kazuya Nuri who said that he'd often correct the animators at Bones when the character didn't look right. My guess is that Apollo here, in DD looks so ugly because Takuro Fuse didn't keep Bones in check. It's probably why Phoenix also looks funky at times.

Either way, those pictures of Apollo are not so bad because they're just keyframes in a longer animation and are seen for under a second.

But this one... is inexcusable:

Yeah, looks like some "bones" didn't get tamed there. Either that, or in 2027, shoulder pads are the new guy fashion trend.
