One detail I LOVE about this music, you can hear it's a duet between a violin and a cello. It's just like we're hearing Sherlock and Watson reason a case. Sherlock is the dominant part of the music, but it's Watson bringing his posed counters that bring the symphony together. In a way, it's a metaphor for Sherlock's whole character in the games: He is THE Sherlock Holmes, but it's only with a partner that his music is complete.
The pure genius of Sherlock is not himself, but in his partner John Watson. Sherlock is the asshole detective, and Watson is the human side of the conundrum.
Just beat this game the other day. It was bittersweet. It legitimately felt like saying goodbye to my new friends. An Ace Attorney game hasn’t made me feel like that since Trials and Tribulations. This is by far one of, if not the best games in the series (counting both as one).
yeah it felt like saying good bye exactly i hope that we gonna get a 3rd Part in the future this game attached yourself so hard o the characters ......Im definitley going to replay it ... in the future maibe in december
I haven’t finished it yet but I’m dreading the end :( I loved this cast of characters, the music was great and the mysteries were fun. I agree and haven’t felt this feeling since the original trilogy. Part of me wants another game in the series but I wonder if it is just best to end it in this note? Still, I’ll miss all of the characters. It’s very rare for a game to get me attached to nearly all of them lol. I hope that the writers create either a new part for this series, another part in the main series or create a whole new environment for a fresh start like TGAA.
“I am the one who decides what is right and wrong for myself. If there is something I want to put my faith in, I’ll go ahead and do so. That has nothing to do with someone’s feelings… When the time for [betrayal] comes, then I don’t foresee it… that’s all there is to it. “Betrayal,” and whatnot… I don’t care for it… Who I should trust and if I should trust- that all happens in the end. Whether I can believe in myself- I can do that whenever.” -Herlock Sholmes, February 20th, 1900
The foreshadowing man... now that i already know the whole story of this game, all the things herlock said in the cell with naruhodou susato and souseki are really what's happening in london. He had already known it the whole time. This man is a goat
@@AB-dm1wz you can look back again at the time when naruhodou and susato were visiting souseki in the cell (in the 4th chapter which is the adventure of the clouded kokoro). Sholmes suddenly came up to them and said those lines you exactly wrote, along with something about london being in the shadows and darkness. I am talking about the "betrayal" and the "shadiness". Naruhodou even narrated in his monologue that at first he had no idea of what sholmes was saying, but it all made sense in the end About the betrayal he actually was referring to van zieks
The Great Ace Attorney is a brilliant game. No doubt, the best of the Ace Attorney franchise. And to me, this song is the brightest gem of what is an amazing soundtrack. If only I could lose my memory just to experience again the first time I heard this beautiful song.
Don't blame the localization team, they could do nothing, it's those assholes who hoard licensing rights on a, quote on quote, "public domain character" by making it almost impossible to use if they actively sabotaging that.
@@ManiacYKT yeah a lot of issues went into localization for this, like rights to just a literal name which is just ????. Tho, a big problem they also faced was the heavy Japanese culture and balancing the translation to keep the culture in the dialogue but make it readable/accessible enough for English speakers and character animations. COVID-19 prolly played a huge part also which is unfortunate also but hey! WE GOT THE GAME NOW AND NOW IM JUST BINGING IT DEIFJVM GMJENGJAKNADJDN
@@ManiacYKT yeah mainly cuz apparently they will attempt to take down projects with Sherlock Holmes if his character is like how it’s portray in the later stories and DGS Holmes is more in line with that characterization and by that I mean expressing emotions, yeah…, however I’m glad that they did went with Herlock Sholmes and John Wilson since those names has been used way back in like 1910 from the Arsene Lupin series cuz the author couldn’t use Sherlock Holmes due to legal reasons from Doyle himself and made those names as way to get around legal troubles
Two things are about to happen with herlock when this plays 1: he’s about to say something extremely dorky or stupid (d of d) or 2: he went into serious mode
@@gewinnersieger It's actually Benedict Cumberbatch, he's the guy who plays Doctor Strange in the MCU. He also played Sherlock Holmes in the films so that's why he said it along with his name albeit having switched the initials of his full name.
ah yes, Herlock Sholmes. Logic and Reasoning Spectacular! I'll never forget his enocounters, where he just will flex on you all of the sudden or will do boxing dance
For me this feels like the essence of Kazuma's soul. When it played in a Kazuma flashback in case 4, it reminded Ryonosuke what he is fighting for. For me it sounds like a "Chivalrous Spirit" theme because of the slow and dominent leifmotif.
I'm going to add something here to another comment. Basically, someone said Sholmes isn't really Sholmes without Wilson (John, not Iris). However, it's lead me to believe that Wilson used to take the same role as Ryunosuke. Sholmes would present his deductions, and Wilson would've come in and corrected them, finally bringing the truth to light.
Sholmes’ character (of GAA) seems more like a parody of the original character than an accurate representation, which is why I think Sholmes is a superior name in the context of the story. EDIT: spelling.
The only reason it's herlock is because the owners of the copyright go after everyone, even if they don't have a case. wish it still said Sherlock like in the fan translation
Herlock Sholmes. truly the best character in English Ace attorney. Sherlock? That doesn't exist in english. the fan translation is unofficial and doesn't count sadly so no Sherlock has ever been in English.

Whenever you hear this theme, you know that Sherlock (or, uh, Herlock) has entered his serious mode, and something awesome is about to happen.
I feel the same way...
BUUUUUUUUT, more often than not, this track is leading up to one of his "Great Deductions" so... 😅

This theme felt amazing the first time it played in the Case 2 cutscene
My favourite theme in the game.
Reading the stories of one famous consulting detective, while drinking tea and listening to this tune. Thank you TGAA!

When Sherlock gets serious... or starts screwing around
Yes Herlock truly is a goof ball.
this music plays either when sholmes becomes serious, or he has been already ahead of the game.
Herlock Sholmes*
Most of the times this plays he's trying to find replacements for the key words in his correct deductions to train naruhodou in the art of deduction
I was listening to the soundtrack and this came out of left field. Didn't remember it from the time I watched the game, but I love it so much
Ok, so yeah, Case 4 was the filler case, but I just can’t deny the perfection of Asogi’s flashback about trusting yourself as this played.
Powerful Layton vibes from this track
His voice reminds me of Layton’s too
One of the composers from the crossover is also the composer here: Yasumasa Kitagawa.

What a Wonderful soundtrack!
I feel like I've become a genius.
I feel like I'm reflecting on myself while looking back on my life.
theme of "shit is about to get serious real fast"
Complete goosebumps everytime I hear this....I know...I'm weird. 😅😅😅
It's rather relaxing music in my opinion, I love the violin and piano
I don't get goosebumps for this theme but it seems very common to get that from certain songs, I see it in comments all the time.
OneBoredCatbug Yeah, I don't know with certain songs I just happen to get random goosebumps. 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
@@TristonDBuffkin At the end of the 4th case where Holmes was talking about the dark secrets of London and this started playing, I got chills lol
I get what you mean. It’s the instruments. We have the ears that give us goosebumps when we hear ear-pleasing tunes.
God im always so happy when this track comes up. Literally my favorite track in the game (i havent played resolve yet so that may change)
This reminds me of the Fractured Fairytales BGM of Bookworm Adventures 2. I know it is probably not inspired by it, but it still gives me nostalgia.
we did it... finally Herlock sholmes
I love this theme but there's no way anyone can convince me to call him by how the game wants me to call him
