    This was a fantastic watch. I always viewed Franziska as a tragic character the writers didn’t properly acknowledge due to the whip bits they overuse with her. She had her whole life molded by a father with a psychotic obsession with perfection and who wanted her to basically be a clone of him. It really makes you wonder if she really wanted to be a prosecutor or if she only walked this path to gain his approval and love. Considering many things about Manfred’s character as shown in every game he has appeared in, it’s definitely the latter.

    • @debastiansebeste
      @debastiansebeste  Год назад +84

      Yeah, it's definite that she became a prosecutor only because of the shoes she had to fill as the daughter of such a legendary prosecutor (plus the constant "expectations" everyone had of her that she tells us about at the end of JFA).
      She had tons of potential. I wish we had seen her get some more decisive character development than have her devolve into a simple slapstick comedy duo with Gumshoe :/

      @lux2978 Год назад +30

      Wait so... if she only walked his path to gain his approval and love, think about her relationship with Edgeworth, who actually wanted to be a prosecutor. She must have felt even more threatened by him, because he was the only one of von Karma's 'children' that was as driven about prosecuting as he was, albeit in a different way.

    • @danemr6808
      @danemr6808 Год назад +22

      @@debastiansebeste Slight problem with that is that Von Karma has another daughter who isn't a prosecutor, so it's obvious he doesn't exactly just forcing his children to become prosecutors as well. In fact I'd say Miles is more to blame than Von Karma. She respected Miles as a brother and when she saw the praise he was getting from Von Karma she probably chose, on her own, that she wanted to become a prosecutor as well.

    Franziska deciding to find closure with her father by having Maya channel him so she can tell him off instead of, like, going to therapy is just about the most Franziska thing she could ever do lol.
    Genuinely though this is such a great scene, I love the comedic bookends and how you really delve into Franziska’s character in what, to me, feels like a perfect conclusion to the way her arc went in Investigations 2. Nice work!

    2nd Comment:
    I always hated Franziska but after seeing this and knowing how Sebastian was treated, she suffered a lot because of Manfred. In fact, everyone suffered because of HIM.
    Having a terrible father can change who you are and make you a monster, I still don't completely like her, but you gave me sympathy points for her seeing as how she suffers (or at least now suffered) in silence.
    Good job Debastian. Bravo.

But that theme... what the hell. I wish they had used a variation of that theme for him in the games, it fits him so well. And about the video itself... Manfred deserved that.

    I am here for Franziska's character development! Honestly, idk why the idea that Franziska is just as much of a victim of Manfred's machinations as Miles was took so long to come to light. She most likely wasn't born so cold and mean, she was made to be like that, her lashing out (literally and metaphorically), were probably the only way she could express herself. Also Manfred's typical narcissistic patterns (deflecting fault, refusing to acknowledge his own mistakes, making anyone the enemy when their tactics dont work, etc. is classic NPD) obviously would have affected Franziska very badly growing up in that. Even his reason for why he was so hard on her is pure selfishness, and he immeditaely dismisses her objections as failures on her part when she won't play his game. Good for her getting closure, now onto therapy with the rest of the cast!

    Honestly, I now wonder about the potential what if of "What if Manfred killed Blaise and not Gregory for the penalty?" Though granted, it is probably not too interessting. In a lot of ways, it probably mirrors the "what if he didn't shoot anyone?"-what if without too many extras.(I guess Manfed probably has to be stealthier about his illegal methods tho because he just removed the guy who usually covered for him)

    Hell yes, Franzy getting the proper respect and empathy she deserves! Manfred Von Karma was a monster and the fact that Franziska didn’t end up a criminal prosecutor like him and achieved a perfect record through fully legitimate means (and yes, the stunt she pulled with showing the picture of Maya channeling Mia in the detention center is *technically* legal as far as we know, and even in real life it’s literally the prosecutions job to tell their witnesses what parts of their testimony to leave out to maintain the strength of their initial conviction) is a testament to her strength of character, even if she can be a little… aggressive. Nothing some therapy couldn’t fix *burst into laughter* yeah, like that’d ever happen.
    Also, *love* seeing the parallels get drawn between Franzy and Sebby, those two are way more similar than I would have thought and I honestly kind of teared up when you had Franzy flashback to Seb taking down Blaise. That moment really is the peak of AAI 2 in my opinion, the rest of that final case kiiiiiinda drags and does not have nearly the same emotional core to it, and as a result is not nearly as satisfying despite Simon Keyes being a pretty stellar villain.

    In her canon iteration, she kinda (very questionable) reformed to find the “perfect” truth instead of a perfect record. While it is kind of okay for her arc to go that way, and that her whippings are just because she is hot-blooded, this vid is way more satisfying to progress her character arc. In fact, I even pitied Manfred. Because I still hold the belief that nobody would become this obsessed and psychotic at birth. I pitied that he never found the most important things in from of him which is a family. Instead he chased after a concept that is the anti-thesis of being human. Perfection. I pity Manfred for having something so many dream of. And wasted it for a mere undefeated record. As for Franziska, I still hope she will make her future appearances in the franchise with actual character development. Even if her gimmick still had to rely on finding the PERFECT truth.

    • @crescent_sun482
      @crescent_sun482 8 месяцев назад

      Eh, it's possible he was born murderous. Psychopathy is a born condition. In rare cases, young children have committed cold-blooded murder. It's entirely possible that three or four year old Manfred was still a vicious psychopath who... I dunno, could have intentionally brutally killed a baby sibling of his in their crib.
      But it's also possible that he was just a normal (but probably abused, the entire VK family gives generational trauma vibes and physical abuse of children was very common in the 1950s, I wouldn't be surprised if his father beat the hell out of him daily) little kid before he was twisted into a monster by his relentless pursuit of perfection.

    When i played aai2, i was impressed how Franzisca...let Sebastian to do the thing with his father. I understood that she could relate to Sebastian with daddy issues(but in other way). Sebastian was abused and used by Blaise, he wanted his praise even knowing he's an idiot for him, but he wanted to. His arc was really hard for me to realize and understand his character:( poor baby
    Speaking about Franzisca, it's sad for me her character was rarely shown in the second game unlike the first. I still remember how she was shocked when the truth about Manfred's lies just for "perfect record" was opened, imagine how she felt? Her own father, whom she idealized and wanted to be the same, but it's all was a lie. I still think Franzi only knew Manfred as a father, but not as a prosecutor. Since Franzi called him "papa" instead of "Father" means she had good memories about him, but which ones? Probably Manfred indeed was good as a father, but not as a prosecutor. And I'm glad that Franzi didn't close her eyes on his crimes, didn't try to run away(unlike Sebastian, but i can understand him, he's traumatized), however...i really hate how game made many characters with proper story, character developments and etc, but not with Franzisca:( her character is way interesting, she's not just "whip lady", seriously.
    Plus imagine living with a fact her own father killed the father of her former older brother(Miles)? I mean she really could feel really hurt, especially knowing whay Miles gone through. Franzisca is not heartless person, no matter how she tries to act strong

      I wanted to see how Miles and Gregory will react and unteract with each other for a while after dl-6, pretty much since I finished the first game I wanted to see that.
      I would have made one myself but I'm not good enough at writing for that at all.

      @@debastiansebeste Oh wait I think I remember, there was a scene midway through Turnabout Bigtop that Phoenix confronts Franzika saying how what she's doing isn't going to bring her dad back, the scene where we found out that her true intention was just to one up Miles. I don't think Phoenix upfront said that Manfred died but that's probably, the closest we got to Phoenix saying as much
