Shogun Episode 2 complete!

Getting some Last Samurai vibes from Blackthorne in this one, which I suppose is fitting since Toranaga's actor in this show was in that movie, too!

The scene where Hawthorne is explaining Portugal's plot to Toranaga was so good. Loved seeing their slow realization of what's been going on behind their backs.

McGilded is on the ropes really early though, like he could have been convicted pretty easily, was he always just going to smoke bomb and escape or like, what's the deal, I seriously don't know, it feels like he needed Ryunosuke to bail him out

I dunno, maybe in his arrogance, he underestimated how hard it would be.

Well yeah, Triple Triad doesn't really attempt to have a story. Like yeah, the characters talk about it sometimes, but other than the card club sidequest, it's detached from the rest of the game.

If they ever remake the game and it's not just a straight remake, I'd imagine they'd at least implement a Triple Triad tournament or something like that.

I'm surprised at just how low G1-2 got, I never would have pegged it as second from the bottom

I dunno, that sounds about right to me! Well, maybe not quite that low, but bottom five is where I expected it to finish.

Yeah, Triple Triad's strength is that it's very easy to know what your cards are going to do in any scenario.

Except when Plus is active. I still struggle with that one...!

Yeah, I picked Snape over Dumbledore because we don't really get to see Dumbledore as a teacher.

8/10

It's kinda wild that the game opens with three single segment cases. It's a really good intro to the game's jury system, with a crazy twist that you're defending a guilty guy and you get him off the hook. I wish the case had a little more meat to it, but what's here is quite good!

Triple Triad without a guide is kinda frustrating. The whole optimal abolishing of rules and save scumming puts it behind queen's blood for me. But the fact cards have more uses thanks to GF skills was neat.

I dunno, I never used a guide to optimize Triple Triad, and I still think it's great!

Trying to get the Laguna card on Lunar Base is really tough with its insane rule set, but other than that, I don't struggle too much with getting all the rare cards.

In the bustling city of Midway, renowned for its prestigious educational institutions, a beloved teacher, Ms. Evelyn Moore, finds herself unjustly accused of leaking exam answers to students. The accusations rock the school community, tarnishing the reputation of both Ms. Moore and the school itself.

Enter Phoenix Wright and his skilled team, including the ever-loyal Maya Fey and the sharp-witted Apollo Justice. As defenders of truth and justice, they take on Ms. Moore's case, determined to prove her innocence and restore her honor.

However, Phoenix and his team refuse to be deterred. With their trademark flair for investigation and courtroom drama, they meticulously dismantle the prosecution's arguments one by one.

I am the Queen's Blood champion. The last couple of matches were pretty entertaining! After completing all of this and spending a good bit of time on the card game, I'd say that it's a top tier mini-game for the series. I'd still put it behind Triple Triad as far as card games go, but there's no shame in that.

Dramatic Conclusion:

As Phoenix Wright, the defense attorney, presents his closing arguments, he unveils the true mastermind behind Veronica's murder. With a stunning revelation and airtight evidence, Wright proves Hawthorne's innocence and exposes the real killerthe politician whose wife was being blackmailed by Veronica. The courtroom erupts in shock and disbelief as the true culprit is led away in handcuffs.

Verdict:

This was my wife's suggestion. Her brother recently binged the show and told her about it. She's a history buff and is interested in the history of Japan in particular, so she wanted to watch it.

Pretty good first episode! So many spinning plates already, it's hard to tell who's doing what quite yet. Definitely intrigued to see where it all goes though.

I get that Ace Attorney isn't a traditional VN, but it brought so much attention to the medium that it deserves a spot.

2.5/10

Definitely in the bottom 5 for the series for me. I don't need a replay to know that. Nothing about this case really works aside from the debut of Sholmes, and there's plenty more of him in other cases, so I'm not giving this one too much credit just for him being in it.

GAAC is a weird game in general for me in that the game feels greater than the sum of its parts - like, the overall presentation, the character animations, etc are just of a completely different class compared to every other AA game and that's a big part of the game's appeal, but none of either game's cases make it into my top ten based on their actual content (one of them is my #11 case but still).
