This is basically just a quick questionnaire,
All I want is to get the views on the cases from all the forum users,
Basically all you have to do is to answer the questions.
Then I will read your submitted data and after a few weeks analyse it,
I will then post the results at a later date.
*GS4 cases cannot be used, as many people haven't played them
So...
Question 1:
What is your favourite case?
Why?
Question 2:
What is your least favourite case?
Why?
Congratulations, after answering these you will have completed your part of the census.
I anticipate your resutls-

To the OP: While it may be easier for you to read sans spoiler tags, I'd be pissed if I clicked this topic not knowing what the census was about or expecting spoiler tags and had an entire game ruined for me. So I use caution.

It appears Turnabout Big Top
is currently the most hated (5)and Farewell, My Turnabout
is the most liked, though (8)though these are subject to change...
The First Turnabout
seems to be gaining disapproval, whilst Turnabout Goodbyes 
seems to be gaining favour,remember people, a few more posts can change this Census massivly...
my continued thanks

and Larry's new name (it was a somewhat flowery name in line with Misty Fey's new name- Tenryusai Mashisu, I think). I also liked the reference to 1-4 (it was a pretty big one too- Misty Fey is killed in this case).

Though I must agree, Case 4 looks awesome. I've gotta get back to learning Japanese again... Or just wait for an English release.

Question 1:
What is your favourite case?
I'm going to go with 1-4.
Why?
I liked the foreshadowing for it in the previous cases, the character development, and the plot twists. I like that Phoenix makes a noobish mistake (carrying the original copy of the letter on him), Maya's courage when she threw herself on von Karma, and the cute group picture at the end. It was nicely done.
Question 2:
What is your least favourite case?
2-2.
Why?
It felt so very haphazardly-plotted, and they didn't bother to commit one way or the other on what exactly the legal standing of a person channeling the spirit of the deceased is. It sounds like the best case the prosecution could have made would be criminal negligence, not murder. The whole time I was playing that case I was grinding my teeth and going "this is so dumb, and not in a fun way." I actually rather liked 2-3 because it was so silly and gleefully dumb in a good way. 2-2 came off as sloppy to me.

Definitely 1-4. I started playing it around midnight, just so I could see the intro murder scene. When I saw it was Edgeworth, I decided not to sleep until I finished the case and found out what the heck happened. And the story developed itself pretty nicely, especially the characters. It showed the backstory of why Edgeworth is the way he is, and why Phoenix became a lawyer. When I first heard von Karma's Objection, I almost wanted to cry. 
I expected it to be a more or less regular case, but then everything got crazy, von Karma went MAD, it was just awesome. It was also the case where Maya seemed to get the most character development: sure, she didn't channel Mia, but she actually did something on her own. It actually made me not dislike her. The other cases didn't really seem to do that. Most hated case:
Either 2-2 or 2-3. I don't know which. With 2-2, Ini just pissed me the hell off. I'm usually fascinated by Japanese traditional-looking things, but Maya's village just bored me. Some of it was just too obvious, like seeing the screen, and how Pearl's mom was all evasive and such. Ini was just too obvious of a suspect, I expected there'd be some crazy twist near the end, but no. It was her, just like I suspected the first time I saw her. With 2-3, it was just.... like a filler arc in an anime. SO MANY BAD PUNS AND JOKES. I'll admit, I was amused by the YTMND reference and Moe quoting stupid things, but that's about it. Moe made me die a little on the inside with his joking. I kept losing health when he told jokes in court. Ben and Trilo were.... uh..... ok, so Regina is 16. Ben is 31. Trilo is a puppet. I don't know how any of that works, and I'd prefer to keep it that way. And investigating was stupid. Why can't I take the piece of paper from his coat pocket? It's wrong to steal? Maya just stole a useless poster, and I can't take a piece of actual evidence? When I got the pepper shaker, everything became obvious. The only thing that kept me interested in this case was wanting to find out what happened to Edgeworth.

Ok, I'll take some heat, but I did like Turnabout Big Top. The music was pretty good (gets shot again), Edgy returning helped, Franzie rocks, Moe was pretty cool, and I just liked seeing how messed up everyone at the cirus was. It was an origanal case.
Least fav: 2-4 (is killed)
I liked the characters and the music, but that's about it. The trials were long and boring.
Returns. It just seems to bleh for me.

1-4 1-5 or 2-4
I like long cases. >.>
Hated 1-3 2-1 2-2 2-3
BLEH. 1-3 instills a boring case allover. 2-1 is one massive contradiction. 2-2 Was lame and boring. 2-3 was equally as boring. >.>

Probably 2-4, or maybe 2-1.
Why (2-4) - I don't know that 2-4 needs too much explaining. It was a cool twist, and I really like stories with themes - 2-4 has a cool theme to it.
Why (2-1) - I'm a bit biased, because I played JFA first, mind you...this case probably would have been lame otherwise; however, having played it first, it was really awesome. Because I'm very sensational when playing video game, watching movie, reading books, etc., Being thrown into a court case after suffering amnesia made me really, really nervous! Plus, the feeling of having all these people around you that know who you are, while you don't know anyone - as if your whole life is just flying by you - was a really intense feeling.
Least Favorite?
Easily 1-3 or 1-5.
Why (1-3) - It was honestly...just...boring. Granted, it was funny in a lot of parts; but, the investigation phases just seemed like fetch quests, it was a little too long for its own good, it wasn't particularly interesting, etc. It was just, in my opinion, the epitome of a mediocre case in a game series like Phoenix Wright.
Why (1-5) - Good LORD. I thought I'd like this one more after I replayed it...but, I was very wrong. In fact, I think I dislike it even more. The characters are lame and obnoxious, it really doesn't make any sense with the story (I'm not just talking about how they didn't change things in the games to make it fit into the canon...but just things like Edgeworth's attitude, or the story surrounding Edgeworth in general, which would really render a lot of your encounters and conversations about Edgeworth in the first game obsolete if they DID change something), and it's entirely too long and terribly-paced. The investigations are just straight up BORING, and the trials phases are waaaaaaaaay too long. Lastly, some of the DS-specific features were just lame. Gathering fingerprints, in particular, just seems to be like a big fucking time-waster.

I don't get the Edgey hype. I don't really like this case because it's a little stupid, in the sense of that it's long, but in the end I see no purpose.
Those are all just my opinions.

Why: Just awesome. Everyone's already said my reasons, but the emotion, the characters, the villain, and everything else about it just came together so well. It even made me forget for a while that I don't like Lotta!
Least Favorite Case: Turnabout Beginnings (3-4)
Why: I found it to be a total waste of time. I hated the defendant, hated Kaminogi, and even though you got to play as Mia again, you really didn't learn anything useful or interesting about her (she was nervous as a rookie? SHOCK!). I know it was just set up for 3-5 but they could have found a more interesting way of doing it. And I didn't like 3-5 anyway, so there's no reason to like the lead-in.
I'm not fond of 1-2, either (because of its cheap cheap ending) but it was kind of essential to the story overall, so I can't hate it completely.

Farewell, My Turnabout (2-4)
is still breezing this topic in the favourite cases department [12],whilst in the least favourite cases, it appears that Turnabout Big Top is still radically despised
[9]Anyway, its not over yet, not for a long time
I can also tell you that Turnabout Samurai is the second most hated with 4, whilst Turnabout Goodbyes is still liked by many, though it just can't beat the awesomeness of 2-4.
Remember, the more posts on this topic, the wider the range of opinions I have to deal with,
I would like a complete census thanks...
ALSO! An important note to anyone who is going to post,
please only state one case in each catergory, otherwise, from now on, I will only accept the first case you put down in each catergory...
basically, don't say
"I hated 1-1, 2-1 and 2-3" because from now on, I will only accept the first case you put down, (In this example, that would be 1-1).
We need more votes,
Thanks

2-2, Reunion and Turnabout
This case was simply genius. I loved the twists, the background story and the introduction of Pearl. The story was actually easy to understand despite the involvement of Spirit Channelling. Overall, a great case.
Honorable mention: 2-3. I actually loved the colorful nature of that case, even though I hated Ben and Trilo.
Least Favorite case
1-5, Rises from the Ashes.
Why? I could've say case 2-4 is my least favorite case because of Matt-hatred and poor Adrian, but I'll go with 1-5 because of the flawed story and the many plot holes. I didn't like how much "impossible things" or "OMG how can that happen!" was possible to merge into one sole case. And for being a filler case, it had lots of things that created plot-holes but could have been easily toned down or removed (Lana's 3 king of the prosecutor awards, Evidence Law). Also, the cast of characters were actually okay if there weren't Meekins, he looked like he didn't belong to the cast, distinctively breaking the balance. And Legendary Duo... what a pathetic name.

What is your favourite case?
Rise From The Ashes, aka 1-5.
Why?
'Cause it was epic! For one thing, I loved all the characters. (The Marshalls are my favorites.) And I loved how each one had some sort of relationship with the others, even an obscure one. Except for Mike. I liked their breakdowns, too! But okay. It really kept me playing through it, too. I never lost interest. It got so intense at parts. You get the idea.
Question 2:
What is your least favourite case?
I'd say... Turnabout Samurai, 1-3.
Why?
I actually really liked it the first time I played it, but I know realize it paled compared to most of the cases in either game. People were no fun to talk to a lot of times.
I have a bad habit of feeling the need to defend everything I like, so I'll just say I found 2-1 to be quite fun. And I actually liked Richard. Of course, it looks like I'm not the only one on this forum.

Farewell, My Turnabout

Spoiler: Case 2-4
Question 2:
What is your least favourite case?
Rise from the Ashes
Why?
Truthfully, I love most this case, because the characters are so interesting and plot holes don't bother me, but there is one thing that ruins all of it for me.
Damon Gant. He makes me sick to my stomach. I can't even look at his sprite, honestly, and it's actually hard for me to type his name, or even look at it. I'm trying hard to get over this random fear/loathing for this character, because I really do love the case. But seriously, when his music started playing on my MP3 player? I screamed. It's that bad. I keep telling myself, it's just a video game, he's just pixels on a screen, and most of me knows this. It's that last little part that causes me to be nauseous at the name "Gant". I really hate it. Especially when I had to help my friend through the case, and it just happened to be one of Orange Man's testimonies.

Farewell, My Turnabout is still occupying the most favourite spot, with 14 votes...
also, Turnabout Big Top is still hated with 9....
However there has been a change....
Rise From The Ashes is now the second most hated case
Can any other case de-thorne the greatness of 2-4???
There is still time...

I just loved it, for some reason. It introduced Franzika, one of my favorite characters, introduced Pearls, one of my favorite characters, And we got the Magatama...plus, It kinda fuels my Nick/Maya shipping passion.
Although it bugged me that While Fran ackknowledged Maya was channeling, you couldn't reason that she wasn't controlling herself.
My Least Favorite case...
I can't believe I'm about to do this...
I"m gonna get whipped...
*Gulp* 2-4*All Reality shatters*
...I don't know why, I just hate it.

yes...
6 users have put it down as their favourite case,
whilst 4 users do not like it, and have put it down as their least favourite...
generally, you either like it or you don't...
Reasons why people like it-
-The Marshalls and Gant
-Breakdowns
-Intensity
-Plot Twists
-No Feys??? (I personally don't agree...)
-Length
Reasons for dislike-
-Evidence law = pointless
-Damon Gant
-Meekins doesn't belong
-The name "Legendary Duo"
-Impossibility
-Length (Can be a con as well as a pro)
I really have covered every point people have made, haven't I?...
