We now had 3 games in a row with a case that has been called the best non-finale case and they all scored roughly the same! L-3 gets praise for Jean, Emeer, and the many twists. Many also said it made PLvPW worth it.

Summary:

This is technically 3 separate cases: The Final Witch Trial, The Last Inquisitor, The First Story. This will just be counted as one total case.

Phoenix takes on Espella's defense one last time as the city prepares to judge the Great Witch, while Layton uncovers the truth behind the Storyteller.

Main Characters: Phoenix Wright, Maya Fey, Hershel Layton, Luke Triton, Espella Cantabella, Eve Darklaw, The Labyrinthian Judge, The Storyteller
Other Characters: The Vigilantes, Kira, Newton Belduke

My rating: 1/10. This is a contender for my least favorite case in the series. For starters, Espella, Darklaw, and the Storyteller are all characters I do not find compelling at all. Having them take center stage is justbad. This is definitely more of a Layton ending than an Ace Attorney ending. While I dont mind Layton endings, the two games styles really clash here. Its also just really long.
