I wonder if that was an intentional reference from the developers/translators once they realised what a behemoth this case was.

Either way, I do not envy you, OP, for this undertaking. Thanks for continuing the LP despite the best effort of all the game's many, many :words:

Revelry in the Dark

Rise from the Ashes is definitely a slow burn, but I definitely think the best thing the series has done is go away from the third day. All the crazy stuff happens in two trial days now.

Are you doing JFA? that's the game if you want to see high highs and low lows

To be fair, I can't really imagine them translating this behemoth of a case into 3-4 episodes.

Now let it sink in that the final cases for some of the most recent games could be considered to be just as long (if not longer) than this one. :v:

Most of Angel Starr, almost everything with Neil Marshal, and absolutely everything with Meekins could have been cut from this.

Ending payoff was still pretty good.

Well, not Neil, but... um the other one. Jake? Neil was the one who died, after all, not much he can do.

Cutting Jake Marshal? They shoot you for that in Texas. Jake is in the game to serve as a parallel for another character, and that's pretty much it.

Yeah but they're the climax of their games, as opposed to this which is a reeeeeally long post script.

I still enjoyed it, and Ema is a great character. But yeah, far too long.

Case 5 - Rise From the Ashes
Trial (Day 4) - Part 14

First up, here's a video of the credits. Now, let's check in on our characters with the credits.





: She's a coroner. I think Ema will be pleased.
: As for me, this affair has pretty much ended my days at the Prosecutor's Office.
: Still, I'll manage to find my way back to the field somehow.
: Then I'll be able to investigate crimes together with Ema.



: they overlooked my unauthorized investigation of the Chief's office.
: "If we penalized you any more, it'd be worse than firing you!"
: Yep. That's what they said.
: It just goes to show...
: You can't shake me off that easily!



: Can you believe it!? I've been demoted to a security guard!
: My partner's keeping an eye on the entrance for me today.
: I'll show them, though! Someday I'm going to make detective!
: Yes sir! Then I can be just like that Dick Gumshoe!







: Miss Starr managed to sneak this in to me. She's seeing one of the guards it seems.
: Well, cowboy... It looks like you did it. You even gave Bambina back her smile.
: Can you make sure Billy and the gang get their water?





: The top layer tastes as bitter as defeat, btu the bottom layer's as sweet as victory. Kids seem to dig the turnabout theme. It's a hot seller around exam time!
: Just make sure not to eat it backwards!



: Let's see, what was his name again?
: Mr. Left...?
: Anyway,
: he said he's been doing, er, something or other for,
: uh... how many years...?
: Well anyway!
: I've got another trial to get to, so I'd better be...
: Huh? Oh no! I forgot my gavel!
: Sorry, gotta go!



: Still, sometimes I do miss hearing Nick and his "objections"...
: Still, I can't go back until
: I'm a full-fledged spirit medium!
: Maya! Afternoon training's about to begin!
: Coming!!!
: Well,
: see you around Nick!





: I brought you your tea... ...





: I can't believe I'm going to Europe.
: Thank you, Mr. Wright!
: Thank you so much for everything!!!
: I'm a little sad,
: but I'll be all right!







The End.

I think the goon's concern is that the series LP will never be finished, and thus, never get archived.

I plan to go to a new thread, probably in the next week or two, because if I do all the games in the one thread the OP will become unwieldy at best. Plus then I don't have to bug anyone for thread namechanges.

Like others have said, congratulations on breaking the Phoenix Wright LP curse. It's been a good thread, mostly for watching audience reactions since I remembered the majority of the cases, but I've probably forgotten more from the upcoming games...

Thanks for this LP! It was cool seeing this game again, I should replay it sometime.

I think it was stated that Dark was definitely the serial killer. He was just too... competent I guess to leave evidence until they forged it.

Yes he was, the Japanifornia Justice Squad was just so incompetent that they could establish he was a spree killer but not have any evidence that would convict him.
