The Fire Witch was liked for the introduction of the prosecutor, Barnham. There were mixed opinions on the witnesses themselves; though, "Some Guy" was quite liked. Of the 12 votes, 6 of them were 6/10.

Summary:

Maya keeps up her winning streak of at least one murder charge per game, and Phoenix takes on the impossible task of solving a case where the victim has turned to gold.

Main Characters: Phoenix Wright, Maya Fey, Hershel Layton, Luke Triton, Espella Cantabella, Zacharias Barnham, The Labyrinthian Judge
Other Characters: Primstone, Birdly, Cracker, Price, Jean Greyerl, Lettie Mailer, Newton Belduke, Emeer Paunchenbaug

My rating: 9.5/10. I may have rated it a bit high just because I didn't expect such a high quality case from this game, but man, there's a ton going on. Layton being the victim causes Luke to testify against Maya, Jean stands out as a tragic character even considering the entire scope of the AA series, and then Emeer of all people comes back to bring some levity to the case. The ending is a massive gut punch, even if I didn't think they went through with killing Maya. But it's treated seriously in-universe and you don't find Maya for some time, making everyone wrestle with the ending.
