    Thanks to everyone who voted for me to play this game on my RUclips Community post earlier this year. I'll be streaming more Ace Attorney and continuing this playthrough on my Twitch channel tomorrow at 7pm BST. For context this is my first time playing, and I've not been spoiled. We're also working hard to make supercuts of the entire game like this, so if you enjoy this video do consider supporting it & leaving a comment :) www.twitch.tv/rtgame

  • @perjuniper6556
    @perjuniper6556 3 года назад +9257

    For anyone new to AA; Some things to know that will help make sense of the plot in this game:
    •In Japanese court it is totally allowed to present new evidence mid-trial. This is super illegal in US/UK, as all evidence needs to be authenticated beforehand.
    • Japan has a 98% conviction rate, meaning if you get arrested, you are presumed guilty until proven innocent. It's pretty common for an innocent person to take a plead deal to get a lesser sentence.
    • At the time this game was made, Japan didn't have a jury system. Jurys were abolished in 1943 (WWII) and were only reestablished in 2009. Most of the AA games include some kind of commentary on the importance of a jury as a result.

      Unfortunately, as far as I can tell from looking into it, this is a sadly realistic look at the Japanese court system (at least as it was in 2001 when this game first came out), where the defendant pretty much _cannot_ be found innocent unless it is proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that someone else committed the crime, which usually requires a confession from the other perpetrator. At the time, over _99%_ of Japanese defendants were found guilty because of how heavily biased the system was against letting the defendant go.

    I like how in a later case it would be canonically acknowledged that the spirit medium's body and face would change to that of the spirit itself, that's why Maya turned into in this trial. (It's also the only reason why Mini Miney could even think to do the thing that she did in that spirit chamber case.) So that means with Mia possessing Maya during the trial and her being physically present in the court room next to Phoenix, EVERYONE can see her yet no one tries freaks out about it when SHE IS THE FUCKING VICTIM IN THIS CASE.

    • @midnight4685
      @midnight4685 Год назад +73

      To be fair, they’d probably just assume that Maya looked very similar to Mia since they were siblings, and they never would’ve seen Mia in an outfit like that. I… also think that they’d be inclined to believe anything other than that the victim was standing right there because it sounds absurd, so they’d assume that they didn’t see her correctly when they might have glanced at her earlier.
      It’s still a hilarious thought, though.

    @AleksandarBell 3 года назад +1002

    Fun fact: all of these games are a critique of the Japanese legal system, the way the games work is exactly (more or less) how the Japanese legal system works. New evidence can just be introduced during the middle of a trial (and you don’t have to inform the other side) and the legal system focuses more on convictions than the actual truth leading to prosecutors acting as Edgeworth does. The judges are often biased as that judge is and it’s often very difficult to have a defendant declared not guilty as in Japan, it’s guilty before proven innocent.

      Ace Attorney Online's cases provide more of a realistic approach, since well, cracking up jokes on the way is quite hard. Yes there is some sort of improvisation, because you can't predict humans, and the trial will not go the way you, the creator, want it.

    Fun fact: Larry Butz actually reacted in an accurate manner to how innocent people accused of murder would act. People who actually murdered someone would act more like Sawit, more calm and reserved. Usually because they don't want to look guilty. And when they run out of options, they'll back themselves into a corner.
    EDIT: So this actually sparked a thread I didn't expect and I'd like to clear something up. As has been said in the thread, there are exceptions to this, always. While body language analysis is a legitimate thing, there are times where it's useless. Mostly because BLA (Body language analysis) focuses on clusters of COMMON traits that MOST people do. But it easily gets thrown out the window when you try to analyze someone who doesn't fall into that neat bubble. I'm only pointing out here because I thought it was a neat detail, plus I wanted to pay respect to JCS.

    • @hmr0470
      @hmr0470 3 года назад +417

      I somehow only took note of this fact after enigma pointed it out as a body language analyst. Most innocents ofc produce a more natural response: fear, shock, resistance and, in the worst case, compliance. Most guilty ones usually take a more confident approach while trying to manage to look innocent, sometimes challenging (not literally) because they believe innocents are very sure they are confident in their innocence. They sometimes exhibit over-the-top reactions when information is revealed but are very careful with their actions overall which results in an unchanging stance as they planned how to play things out. This is just what I mostly got from watching him and it might be a very bad oversimplification.

    I can’t believe he’s started playing Ace Attorney.
    Given the original trilogy has 13 episodes (technically 14 because Rise from the Ashes) and those cases take about 5 - 7 hours, and then there’s Apollo Justice, Dual Destinies and Spirit of Justice, we might expect to see this turn into at least a 30 part series.

    Tbh the thing about Turnabout Sisters is you have to be playing and taking in everything from an emotional view rather than a "gaming" view. Because objectively, it isn't an amazing case, it plays weird and as Dan noted, you're just sort of handed the win in the form of the receipt. Where the case actually shines is in the emotional implications for all parties involved. Its Maya's introduction, and one of her lowest points in the franchise, she's in such intense pain over losing her sister and is so terrified that the man who was helping her would be put in prison that she could only desperately call for her older sister. Phoenix just lost his mentor, and suddenly has to go face to face with Miles Edgeworth of all people to bring whoever took her to justice. Then suddenly he has to defend HIMSELF and it's literally life or death stakes.
    The case is also important for establishing "spirit channeling" which does become important in the other two trilogy games
