Llarian 03/22/21 1:59:16 PM #475:	Case 5-5 - Turnabout for Tomorrow Basically, I love this. I love everything about this. It's amazing. Fulbright starts off by reading testimony from Aura Blackquill. She insists that Athena Cykes was hiding in the rolling case that Simon Blackquill was seen removing from the scene of the crime. The extant photos deny this though - since we see a bandaged robot arm detached from Ponco, and young Athena had bandaged up Ponco prior to the HAT-1 group photo, we must assume Simon disassembled Ponco and stuffed it in the carrying case instead. Ponco takes the stand, and gives some vague testimony about Athena hugging Dr Cykes and Dr Cykes falling down... across the room from the operating table where her body was found. Edgeworth makes a distasteful suggestion - that Athena [with Ponco's help] had placed her mother there to get rid of the evidence by having the automatic robot repair 'disassemble' her mother. For some reason, Phoenix is surprised that the guy who lived most of his life believing he had shot his own father is coming to extremely dark conclusions based on vague testimony. Phoenix instead suggests that Athena had directed Ponco to place her mother there in an effort to save, or 'fix' her. She had seen magic come together on that operating table countless times before, and as evidenced by the bandages on the damaged Ponco, she didn't see a difference between humans and robots in this regard. They gave Edgeworth a particularly powerful voice in this game o_o His sprite is angular and handsome, which is exactly what I would expect. Only expression I think turned out funky is his smirking/finger wagging one. The mouth shape seems off. How do the 3D sprites in this game make everyone look so much better than they normally do? I don't typically have such a positive impression of 2D transitioning to 3D. Maybe it's particularly well-done here and that's why. Just as Phoenix is about to give up, Prosecutor Blackquill takes the stand. He insists that he killed Dr Cykes and that neither Ponco nor Athena had anything to do with it. Based on this testimony, he leans on the Judge to hand down a verdict with a wild look in his eye, all the while making dark jabs at the idea of himself running late to die. Aura objects, of course, screeching about Simon still covering for Athena. A tense moment where we wonder if it's all going to go down as it did 7 years ago... ...and Athena shows up on the defense bench! Shocking! Unheard of! Unorthodox! Just another day in the Ace Attorney universe! Simon protests, that wild look still glinting from the witness stand. Athena confesses that courtrooms terrify her, that she frequently remembers the feeling of being unheard while testifying on behalf of Simon all those years ago. Athena quotes Captain Jean-Luc Picard: "The first duty of every Starfleet officer is to the truth, whether it's scientific truth or historical truth or personal truth! It is the guiding principle on which Starfleet is based... And if you can't find it within yourself to stand up and tell the truth about what happened, you don't deserve to wear that uniform!" Okay, she doesn't, actually. But she does push on towards the truth, no matter what consequences it may hold for her, personally. Looks like we're on for a Mood Matrix on Simon Blackquill next.
