Ok, so I'd thought I'd share my opinions on the up-and-coming GS6. Most of the things listed here might be answered, but I'd thought I'd voice them anyway.

So, first, about the new setting itself. I'm gonna admit this much: setting Kurain Kingdom in the far ends of Asia was a pretty slick move on Capcom's part. But, is it just me, or is Ace Attorney slipping more and more into the magical world? I'm mean, we're talking about spirit mediums, magical water, and the lack of defending attornies, here (which I find dumb, TBH. Read on a bit). While I'm kind of hyped about this, (return of Maya! Yeye!) I kind if feel this is starting to get a tad on the rediculous side. (inb4 "We're talking about the powers of the dead, here. It doesn't have to make sense.", or similar. :-D)

Next, the lack of a defense attorney...? I shouldn't have to say the problems this causes, but... didn't the trailer say that defending attornies were illegal? So isn't Mr. Wright kind of breaking Kurain Kingdom's laws? Or at least, disrespecting their customs? Maybe I've thought about it too much, heck if I know.

What I do hope is that they give Phoenix more attention, or they just call it Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice or whatnot. I personally feel as if the series might be crumbling a bit(?). Or I could be over-worrying about things. I just don't want AA6 to be the Mega Man X6 of the series.

So I'd love to hear your guys' response to my thoughts. There are more but I cant rememeber them now.

I can agree with you a bit.

My suspension of disbelief only goes so far and this premise seems too ridiculous even for this franchise.

What is more magical about spirit mediums and the water mirror compared to spirit mediums and summoning the ghosts of dead people in AA1? I don't see much of a difference here.

Regarding the defense attorneys I don't even understand your problem. Yes, Phoenix is breaking their law and defends Bokuto even though it shouldn't be allowed. While I don't know why they actually allow him to do so (the demo doesn't really explain it, maybe they just think: "Let the ignorant foreigner try to defend that kid, Leifa will show him her absolute power!") the whole point of Phoenix being there will be to challenge the system and bring back defense attorneys.

Dont get me wrong - magic in an AA game is ok. I just feel as if things are going a bit...over rediculousness for an AA game. Then again, I have to play it myself when it comes out regardless, but... I dunno. It's just... Odd to me.

About the second part, I would think this is a bit too ambitious for Wright. He added the jurist system and he's going to pretty much change an entire law system. It might be interesting, but sincewe have so many characters, capcom is playing a bit of a risk for pplot holes and things.

TBH I almost see the Yamazaki games as an alternative canon or something because of how different they feel and how he's more prone to do fantastical things with the narrative. Remember, DD dabbled into sci-fi stuff and treated it like actual lore, as opposed to, say, 3-3 and its goofy computer-firm and blinking suits. There's also a tendency for grand-spanning national conspiracy plots that feels very unfitting at times next to the focus of these games which is usually the smaller human dramas between the characters. I think that's why DD's ending was kinda lame to me. It was way too "epic" in scope when all the intrigue and drama had been built around the individual characters and the tension between them.

With AA6... I'm sort of okay with it only because I've gotten kind of used to the Yamazaki style and he has a canon of 1 (and then 2 spinoffs) of Ace Attorney games establishing this kind of genre for the franchise and AA6 is more of that, and maybe it's even more over the top... Meh, I don't really think so. I think it was always really out there since I played DD and AA6 continuing that direction doesn't surprise me in the slightest. DD gives me confidence AA6 will have likeable, original characters and the returning roles (for the most part) won't be assassinated by the writers, the individual case-scenarios will make me yawn but the overarching plot will leave me wanting to keep playing and AAI2 gives me confidence that this can all amount to something that has a genuine impact on me, even if the means used to get there can border on the insane. :kristoph:

One thing I'm not sold on so far is where Nick's story is going here. I dislike the idea that he will somehow conquer or liberate an entire legal system that isn't in his home country... but when you think about it this already happened in his own country in AJAA (for very specific personal reasons) but again, no one has played it, it's too early to judge. If it's going to suck, it's going to suck but there's a good chance it won't, especially if you like DD or both AAIs already.

There has never been any overarching plotholes in the series, the individual cases may have some small ones, but there has never been a straight up "This does not make sense, he couldn't have done x" moment in the series that has significant impact on the cases/stories

I don't see how things are getting out of hand. Leifa's powers are only a slight variation of Maya's or Pearl's powers. In a world where people can summon ghosts, can see psyche locks, have the abilitiy to perceive even the smallest quirk on a person, and also have the ability to read emotions (at least with the help of a device), now it's suddenly too much? This seems to be a really arbitrary cut off point.

Well, his original ambition to go to Kurain was just to visit Maya. Even when he first defends Bokuto he only does it, because nobody else is defending him and Phoenix is sure of his innocence. To change the whole law system in Kurain isn't even his idea, probably the guy from the prologue anime will use Phoenix to help his cause.

I just assumed that since Phoenix isn't native to their country, he doesn't apply to their rules about Attorneys.

Yeah, from the premise you know this is where this story is going to end -- Through Nick's influence, and now heroism, he helps change the evil legal system of Kurain Kingdom. It might not be the reason he goes to Kurain but in the end it's most likely going to be his story in this game.

My concerns are on how Maya and Trucy will be handled. I hope Maya doesn't go the route that Trucy did in DD and I hope Trucy becomes an actual character again.

Tbf, he didn't change the system in Japan. What was an attempt at "recovering" the Jurist system was merely a ploy to catch a serial murderer who couldn't be caught through regular means. Since then, there has been no further attempts made for "revolution", despite what Athena always claims. Instead, the only game that has been successful with overturning an entire judicial system would be PLvsAA.

Now, GS6 is set in a country that is most definitely going to end up in tumult, thanks to its radical approach of violently removing all native defense attorneys. There is a justifiable premise and plenty of means to bring out this theme in full color, and Nick once again is caught up in the middle of it. I doubt he would be able to completely overturn their judicial system in any sense, but at the very least, he can cause people to doubt the legitimacy of their princess' capabilities - even if that's not his intention either.

That, in turn, would lead to the rise of the revolutionaries as more and more people come to question the absolute authority of the royal heir. If Nick actually gets arrested for something, that would be it. Misunderstandings will be flying about. He'll likely be mistaken for a revolutionary, or at least a spy working with them. Of course, we'll have to see what kind of person the leader of the revolutionaries is... and whether or not he'll help Nick out of this jam or simply use his presence as an advantage to gain an edge against the royal family.

And eventually, we'll finally have a final showdown between dragons for symbolism! And there be more symbolism when I figure out how Nayuta plays into this all...

That's my biggest concern, all i have to say is don't get your hopes up that they'll be anything remotely like theyre old selves, that way if they are then you will be pleasantly surprised and if they aren't then you won't be as angry.

I am not concerned about the game in itself. I think it will, at the very least, be decent and overall interesting due to the story involving a new country. Besides, all the hype will obviously make me love the game much more than I should. However, to be honest, I'm quite skeptical about the "returnees" (Maya, Ema, etc) and how they'll be all handled.
I have weird expectations on Nayuta: he sounds sharp-tongued as hell with a delicate appearance and I have a soft spot for this kind of characters.

My real concern is: how long will they be able to cleverly use the current characters/universe? As much as I'm interested in the upcoming game, I'm all in for a complete change before the characters get "dull" and overused. And they will eventually, if it's not already the case (isn't that right, Phoenix?).
Because of that, Dai Gyakuten Saiban piques my curiosity so much more and it's a shame it will probably never be localized.

My biggest concern (coming from a person who hasn't been following all the news) is that all of the cases will be DL-6 where the spirit doesn't know who the killer was and just says what they think happens. I also don't trust this director with the Mainline series. Dual Destinies was a disappointment to me. Somehow I like the Investigations games though so I still have hope. I just hope he doesn't go too overboard with the mediums here. I prefer my legal action over spirit mediums. If Kurain is the focal point of a case with the culprit, witnesses, and defendant having to do with the country/village, I usually dislike it unless it's written extremely well. I am excited for the game though.

Actually the victims won't tell or know anything. Leifa can only show you what the victim saw, heart, smelled and felt (and I guess tasted) and then she interprets that stuff. So e.g. in the demo the victim sees Bokuto in front of him (after a while his vision turns black), he hears some chantings, smells incense, and later he feels pain.

There's an interesting idea. A case involving food can work, thus utilizing the sense of taste. I'd imagine such a case would definitely involve some type of poison. It could be a poison with a taste for once, or perhaps the taste of something else could mask the taste of the poison. Or, maybe the poison isn't deadly enough to cause death in the first place, and this taste clue could be a big red herring that distracts the police effort.

It's pretty simple to integrate sight, hearing, smell, and feeling into a crime, but I'd like to see how they take taste, if they do include it at least once. This mechanic may just be one of my favorites, if not my favorite, mechanic complementary to cross-examination. There are so many ways to write this...

Still, I wonder how they're going to localize the "Witness Testimony", "Cross Examination", and "Not Guilty" animations. The "Guilty" animation will be easy, though. That, and fitting the word "PAIN" in the bottom left corner of the screen, which had enough room for "痛い".

I'd lie if I say that I'm not a bit sceptical on this whole country of Kurain that no one from Fey family ever mentioned about. I guess Kurain village being a settlement from there makes sense, but after that it seems to be a retconning issue.
(It gives me flashbacks to the infamous Land of Shura/Asura twist from Hokuto no Ken 2)
However, in good hands, it can be turned into something original, as different clans of Kurain can specialise in developing various spiritual abilities. What I really hope for, is that they won't go further and Ami Fey's lineage won't prove to have special significance, i.e. the Fey clan won't suddenly happen to be true successors of throne or something. Let's just allow Maya to become the next Master of Kurain Channeling Technique and let princess Leifa Kurain be the princess. I may be hypersensitive over this, as the only thing I've got is a bad apprehension, but I wish there were no real meaning behind obscuring the Founder's face in the promo trailer (and Bokuto saying that Maya looks like their princess may also be a case of bad foreshadowing - after all, CAPCOM is known for throwing off-hand supposedly insignificant dialogue lines).

Spoiler:
Actually, Bokuto didn't say she looked like their princess, but that Maya being village chief does make her "like a princess". That said, I wouldn't be surprised if what "trouble" Maya gets into involves the princess somehow. Given that the prologue suggests Nick was just going to head off there to pick her up anyway, but then her quick hostage situation made Nick rush on over instead, there's gotta be a reason why they stay in Kurain despite being about ready to head back to Japan.

I don't think Ami Fey and the Fey clan will play much role, aside from a bit of background history about why there seem to be two different Kurains. I've theorized they're two separate religious sects of the Kurain faith that have been at odds for centuries, but Maya has been staying there for two years with little consequence. That kinda puts a damper on my theory, though it's still plausible.

Besides, the chances of Nick being arrested instead of Maya for once are that much higher in this game, where "crime of defense" is actually a thing. That same law has roused an entire revolutionary army against the kingdom. I wonder about that parallel they've set between those that bear the "eye of the dragon" and the guy whose name is literally "first dragon". To be honest, I'm looking forward to a physical brawl between two dragons rather than what it'll actually be, but I'm pretty sure the symbolic imagery will be there.

My biggest fear is how quick the series is changing. This used to be all about Phoenix, until Apollo and Athena came along. So I'm just hoping they don't make anything seem forced in this game.

Again, I'm concerned about the Witness Testimony and Cross-Examination animations for the Kurain Court. The Cross-Examination one will be easy. In the Japanese version, each kanji flips over one at a time. To keep the same sound file, the following segments of "Cross-Examination" should flip over in the following sequence: First "Cross", then "Exa-", then "-mina-", then "-tion". Only problem will be the tiles sliding past each other, as the paths for the tiles of "Cross" might overlap with those of the tiles of "Examination".

As for Witness Testimony... Oh, god...

If you're referring to how localization will handle it, I doubt you have much to fear. They could easily replace that entire animation for something else of their own design, or simply stick with the traditional slide-in, but use a different font. The laziest route would be to leave the animation as is, but it could still work that way, considering that this game has ties to a different country that's inspired by Tibet and possibly Myanmar. Just add "witness testimony" or "cross examination" below for translation's sake.

Again, I'm concerned about the Witness Testimony and Cross-Examination animations for the Kurain Court. The Cross-Examination one will be easy. In the Japanese version, each kanji flips over one at a time. To keep the same sound file, the following segments of "Cross-Examination" should flip over in the following sequence: First "Cross", then "Exa-", then "-mina-", then "-tion". Only problem will be the tiles sliding past each other, as the paths for the tiles of "Cross" might overlap with those of the tiles of "Examination".

As for Witness Testimony... Oh, god...

They handled 5-3's culprit chalkboard stuff very well in terms of animations, and a lot of background art for 5-3 got very clever localization work. I'm sure they can figure out some way to not make the Kurain-themed gameplay prompts look off, even if it means adding one or two more squares.

In fact this is part of the reason we've been getting DD and this so soon after the japanese release. Janet and Co. are working directly with the game creators on the localization as it's being developed, so it has become more of a part of the localization I guess, to incorporate localized additions and changes to the game itself rather than just the text and stuff.

If the Kurain Kingdom is located in Asia in the English localized version, I hope we get an explanation as to why the main family chose to settle in America, taking the Sacred Urn with them.

If Maya has to go to the kingdom to fulfil requirements to becoming the Master, does that mean that Misty had to as well? Considering what a long process this is for Maya, I wonder if Misty actually did considering her involvement in DL-6. Yet even while she left the village, she was still referred to as the Master.

Kurain Kingdom is probably an immigrant society on the county next to Japanifornia. In 2020-30-something they use airplanes for everything, and Nayuta warping between Kurain and Japan seems less mysterious :klavier:

Honestly, I have a feeling that Kurain might not even be a real country.

Spoiler: PLVSAA
Similar to Labrythnia. Though unlike the magic and witches, I think the spirit channeling and spirit mediums are real this time. Is the lawyer genocide real though? I have my doubts.

The primary reason is that they wanna pull the whole "betray expectations" thing and when asked if it was related to Kurain Village of GS1-3 the staff were like "You may expect that but" and were acting really suspicious.

What made me extra suspcious is that the ritual song that Leifa dances to is in Japanese, NOT Kurainese. It feels a bit odd...

Or maybe Kurain will be set in Japan in the English release.

Nayuta is already performing ninjutsu. There is no other reason needed to describe how he travels... except maybe by butterfly.

I hope the writing team is a little more creative than that.

Spoiler: AA6 DLC
Besides, from what I've discovered from the DLC story, Apollo's side, is that Japanifornia is doomed if its star attractions include a village built up by "immigrants"... er, I mean, the princess was visiting the country on duty of bridging relations with them... and sightseeing, of course.

It may or may not be canon, but either way, it's a bit outlandish to claim an entire country is a fake, as opposed to a lone city without connections to the outside world. And couldn't the Japanese lyrics just be a dub over the original? One of the pieces of evidence in the first case is a sheet with the lyrics and their translations.

What a way to save on dubbing costs.

Isn't the DLC confirmed to be non-canon?

I think it's possible for the Kurain Kingdom to be a city-state like Vatican City. I mean, we haven't really heard a name of a specific city in the country. And gameplay footage just said "Kurain Kingdom". It didn't say exactly where or any of the cities which I find kind of strange.

I feel like they've could've had the song in Kurainese though since Nayuta has a chant voiced in Kurainese.

Maybe it's not entirely "fake" and I'm not sure if "fake" is a good word to describe it but I defintely don't think the Lawyer Purge was a thing that happened. That's a bit too much, even for Ace Attorney. I think if anything, it was a scare tactic by the Kurain Goverment/Royal family/whatever.

Still the whole placement of the Kurain Kingdom feels a bit strange and come out of no where since Kurain Village in the original trilogy didn't seem to correlate to a country. It was mentioned that the Fey family before Ami invented the Kurain Channeling Technique were priests and priestesses so it's a bit weird to me for the Kurain Kingdom to TRULY be their roots. It's possible Ami studied in Kurain but I can't see the Kurain royal family being biologically related to the Feys, especially since Kurain seems to be Central/South Asian while the Feys are obviously very much Japanese

The weirdness is due to this being a retcon. Obviuosly Takumi didn't have this in mind when he created the Feys. The story is probable going to be that Ami Fey was born in Kurain and emigrated to Japan.

I disagree. I think such a lawyer purge is quite fitting for a series that has always put defense attorneys in bad rap with their respective societies. They just took it to the next level to support a weird legal system concept where DAs don't really exist.

The reason I brought up the DLC stuff at all is because while it doesn't prove anything, it suggests that there would be a purpose to bridging the two countries, even if the reason provided was just for funsies. Besides, an unnamed city in a foreign country is not unheard of in fiction. It'd be nice if they came up with a name that obviously isn't "Lhasa" but similar, but the scenery already speaks for itself.

I wasn't exactly arguing whether it is or isn't a city-state. Either way, a revolutionary army has formed unbeknownst to the public and the government will get a nasty rap for it.

And Phoenix will be caught up in it solely because he's a dragon too.

Wow looks like we got a winner here. Wasn't that hard to guess in retrospect.
