I've seen this case described as Apollo being caught up in a messy divorce between Kristoph and Phoenix and, honestly? Kinda accurate (and I don't even ship Krisnix).
I think in this game he was a little more of a straight up schemer and jaded then he is in the rest of the apollo justice trilogy. though the events of the final case do kinda probably help him not be jaded.
This honestly isn’t as true as people say. There is truth to it, sure, but he’s also definitely more of an asshole in this game and has become very jaded
It feels like an evolution of his character in Justice for All specifically. He was more blunt there, and the final case revolved around playing the court system to essentially blackmail Engarde - just like he does here with Gavin.
this was so insane for a first case, this has potential to be a 3rd case in the original trilogy with the amount of complexity and character motivations
@@shathak.7421 3rd case? Like steel samurai??? Huh??? I thought third cases were often the weakest (1st case as an introduction/tutorial, 2nd introducing the new prosecutor and baby wheels are off, 3rd often is whacky (bar T&T I think) and 4th is the finale?)
@@georgelongcoal1117 Correct. 3rd cases are notorious. This is 4th case material assuming that the game has a 5th case, because its far too inconclusive to be a final case for any game. That's even knowing that these games bleed into each other.
tbh I feel like the SHOCK AND OUTRAGE over the card is somewhat unwarranted**- Phoenix goes out of his way to circle around it as more of a "possibility" than evidence in it's own right. It's an explanation for why the card- which they've proven *was* replaced- would need replacing, and once the secret passage is uncovered it's pretty redundant. **except by Apollo, who was being yanked around the whole trial, just lost his job, and had Phoenix on a bit of a pedestal until that revelation- he can have all the SHOCK AND OUTRAGE he wants
I would definitely say it is warranted because it's not the actual card that Kristoph took from the crime scene but Phoenix was saying that it was which is a blatant lie which could've cost Apollo his attorneys badge, losing his job is one thing losing the badge is much worse, he would have to find a different career.
@@loftypenalty91 spoilers in my second point here jsyk I did say the outrage from Apollo was warranted lol on a personal level it definitely felt like a betrayal, but from an audience perspective we can see that Phoenix didn't take as big a risk as he implies- 1. He didn't actually say he took it from the crime scene- his exact words: "It's mine. That is, I picked it up at the Borscht Bowl Club that night after the murder had occurred." I'd bet he took it from a back-up deck at the restaurant (again, spoilers past here!) 2. Phoenix immediately claiming responsibility for the card shielded Apollo from responsibility. Phoenix was screwed over 7 years ago not by presenting the fraudulent evidence, but by Misham testifying that the fraudulent evidence was *commissioned.* If Phoenix could've proved he didn't *know* it was fraudulent, he likely would've gotten the same slap on the wrist as Edgeworth did in 1-5. In this case, Phoenix would've testified that Apollo didn't know, supported by his change of attorney from Kristoph to Apollo being so last-minute that it's in the court record (notably unlike Zak's switch from Kristoph to Phoenix 7 years ago)
I’ve seen a couple other people recognize him but tbf it’s pretty easy to not realize it is. 3-3 makes the point that Phoenix’s only remarkable features are the blue suit and spiky hair, neither of which are there with Hobonick. Plus, the stubble also is another subtle difference here
If I didn’t already know from reading character wikis I wouldn’t had known. I can identify him by his spiky hair, brows, and suit. Guess Phoenix could easily fool me with a beanie and hoodie.
people not liked games after the first trilogy, but this case alone is so good after the end of the third game. hobo phoenix is something else. he would look so cool with his old clothes with this new sprite, but they just doesn't rework sprites sadly
@@catalyst539 it is that too! I loved Lana Skye's Parole. It's also about how Lana also seemed to believe that sometimes using falsified evidence was justified as long as the person was guilty and couldn't be put in jail by normal means, like Phoenix does here. They both even give that evidence to a young attorney who trusts them! Lana's situation was different, of course - because of Gant's blackmail. But she did seem to agree with him on that - I believe she even said as much. It's also kind of the idea behind Lana Skye's Parole - these parallels between them.
I can't believe I just started and chat is already spoiling. It's "???" in the remake AND I remember it that way in the original. Chat has to relax and allow things to happen naturally or they'll spoil all of this games cool moments. It's fine. I'm fine.
Phoenix probably played so much chess with Edgeworth trought those 7 years that the man became a Master on 4D chess. Who would ever imagine Phoenix of all characters, being able to manipulate an entire Case
Apollo Justice remains my favorite easily of the main AA games, and catapult Phoenix into being (in my opinion) the most interesting character in the series. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have!
I love this case so much, it might be my favorite one. It was great seeing Crystal's reactions to all the twists and turns in the case. Cant wait to watch the rest of the game
@@dzhemvrotSOJ didn’t retcon DD at all. It was a great follow up. DD was a comparatively very poor follow up to AJ. Though it still did some good things for Apollo himself at least

I love Crystal but she’s always attracted to the characters who are definitely not into women while being undecided about the hottest character in the series 😔
it's very uncomfortable to see her do sexual and romantic jokes constantly, maybe it's because im aro ace but idk, there's other ways of humour and interactions
2:54:00 I remember when I first played this case, I had no idea who could possible be behind this case. In my head, I compared Kristoph to Mia and thought that guy was 100% a good guy so I completely missed all the little hints Phoenix gave throughout the trial. I even picked Payne and Phoenix before I considered Kristoph to be the murderer.
4:07:37 “HE JUST GETS MORE ATTRACTIVE”
Crystal now fully in the Miles Edgeworth mindset
Crystal: "I'm attracted to Phoenix"
Look what 7 years of playing in a seedy club does to a man xD
I did not remember this case going as hard as it did. Regardless, welcome to the dark age of justice!
THE DARK AGE OF THE LAW
I only realized it because of the updated graphics in the HD version. That pin on his hat was worn by Ema Skye during the Gant case.
When it comes to being unable to practice law, the term you're looking for is called "disbarment". It's the same as a doctor getting their medical license revoked.
The sheer WTF over Phoenix in this case never gets old.
I love how Phoenix (and then Apollo later) figured Kristoph out because he just can't stop describing things with flowery analogies. xD
It's pretty funny how the first case is just a game between phoenix and Gavin with everyone else being stuck right in the middle of it

Welcome to the Dark Age of the Law, Crystal.
When Pheonix actions are so attractive they bypass his casual fit which isn't giving at all
It always interesting to me how some people can't immediately tell that it's Phoenix, I was tell it was him at first glance.
I’ve seen a couple other people recognize him but tbf it’s pretty easy to not realize it is. 3-3 makes the point that Phoenix’s only remarkable features are the blue suit and spiky hair, neither of which are there with Hobonick. Plus, the stubble also is another subtle difference here
