How to be an Ace attorney assistant 101: - Blue or grey-ish eyes - 18 or younger - Spunky can-do attitude - Tragic backstory - Being able to pass off as 12 or younger (with the exceptions of Athena and Susato) - Being an easy target for being framed for murder - Have a connection with either magic or technology
Kay will always be my girl, she stole much more than just the truth, she stole my heart : ) Im serious! I need help! Some one knows a good surgeon and how expensive a heart is?
I’d rank it like this: 1. Maya (She da original, she Debeste) 2. Kay (The forgotten turnabout was emotional, ‘Kay!) 3. Ema (she’s cute and she has a promising future)
Wright: Edgeworth! Edgey: Wright, I've been looking over the last case, and... Wright: Huh? Edgey: Why is your office full of underage girls. Wright: uuuuuuuh *door slam*
The only sad thing is how easily they dropped Trucy away for Athena in Dual Destinies so she didn't have her trilogy assistant screentime with Apollo like Maya did with Phoenix. Worse enough, they dropped Athena like if nothing to hammer Maya into Spirit of Justice. I love Maya but she already had like 15 cases, she don't need half a game again. Leave the other girls to shine, dammit. PD: Maybe it was for a few moments, but Franziska and Rayfa were assistants at some point with the "Any ideas?" and "What to do" dialogue and all.
I don't think Maya should have had less time. Maya had been gone for so long, and it was so wonderful to give her some of the game back when she hadn't gotten the chance in a long while. Athena and Trucy definitely should have gotten more time though.
Trucy got a whole case centered around her in SoJ, and, while I love her dynamic with Apollo, I think it’s ok to have someone else when Phoenix is the main lawyer. Athena should just get her own game already for gods sake I need a reason to be Cyked during this time
To quote JelloApocalypse, “And Athena, who people don’t like, because she.... isn’t maya. And ace attorney fans are afraid of change.” Ima just leave that there
I've just realised something. During Trials and Tribulations, Edgeworth used to have a certain individual guiding him around and telling him what's the deal in the Hazakura temple. That means that during his one attorney day he had an assistant. And that was none other than... *Table Slam* Larry Butz!
@@user-mh2bw4hu3o TAKE THAT! G's statement is backed up by the RU-vid analytics page! TAKE THAT! In this field right here you can see... The Video Title! Furthermore... *Point* The description clearly states the video's subject matter!
Objection! Pearl is 18 during Spirit of Justice! Objection! You first find Athena to be 18 in Dual Destinies! Objection! Phoenix wouldn't let his adopted DAUGHTER be an investigative partner with Apollo without permission, so Phoenix is fine. N-No Objections for Ms. Susato.. and Kay Faraday. And Iris Watson. Probably 'cause I didn't play DGS. Maybe Iris's father let her be an investigative partner with Ryūnosuke. And the same for Miko.
Y'know, I really don't like how Gumshoe didn't come back in SoJ, while Ema was the game's "detective", despite the fact that she is now on forensics. Gumshoe, on the other hand, actually IS on Criminal Affairs, so it would make more sense to bring him back, and maybe give Ema a smaller role.
Hell, they don't even need to give Ema a smaller role. You can still have her as an actual forensic scientist and Gumshoe as the detective both. It would also be really cool to see them interact and work together. They could do a lot of fun stuff with them.
He is the most funny Prosecutor in the game, I really like his vibe, and the way he always keep chilling everytime he cornered and drink a coffee is totally awesome
And even in Trials and tribulations she suffered massive trauma as she was attacked by "someone" but then someone trying to help her kills then the "someone" was actually her mother who was channeling dahlia
investigative partner != assistant. An assistant is someone who is *primarly* an investigative partner (which btw. also applies for athena as she is more an investigative partner than an actual lawyer).
It begins and ends with Maya's theme. Wow. I feel all fluffy and nostalgic. Well made video! I like how it's ordered by first appearance and portraits change and highlighted whose theme is currently playing!
Do you realize that if you don’t even give one score under 8/10 it’s a flat rating, by looking at it I can only say you like just some of them at the top.
If there is one thing about DD I'll never forget, it's bloodstained Athena. Seriously, imagine being Simon at the time and coming across Metis being dissected by Athena and seeing her stained with blood while smiling. It's haunting as heck and something that would scar the weak.
But here's the funny thing I don't believe kay has ever stolen something it's just her title that really doesn't mean anything since she doesn't steal anything
Mikotoba Susato ~ Serenade convey such a great atmosphere for the moment it was made for. Naruhodo: To me... Susato is the greatest Legal Assistant in this world!!! Susato: I am most happy to receive those praises! Naruhodo: Hold on Susato-san, don't leave yet I've got to tell you- Susato: *TOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!!* Naruhodo: [Struck onto the floor from Susato's Susato Drop] Susato: Please... Naruhodo-sama... if you say good bye now... Susato will cry...! [Susato fades from the struck down Naruhodo's vision as he falls into deep slumber] And tomorrow morning, Susato had already left London for Japan.
If it weren't for the age difference they'd be my fav ship :( but considering naruhodo as phoenixs ancestor he must have gotten with someone at some point so das gud
To me, it's so sad how Athena really is just an assistant. She's supposed to be a main attorney as well, but with what little cases she gets, she just gets dropped off as an assistant. Obviously in order for Athena to step up from being an assistant, she pretty much needs the majority of the cases, or her own game. Which if there is going to be an Ace Attorney 7, hopefully it'll have Athena being focused on more than the others, but her getting her own game is unrealistic since we know with AJ: AA that any game without Phoenix on the title or cover doesn't sell as well. Regardless, Athena doesn't deserve to be an assistant in my mind, but she just is.
She was introduced at a bad Time and had to fight literally every other major character in the franchise for screentime and ultimately she Drew the short straw. She's Also not That engaging of a character.
Maybe athena can solve the mystery of why iris and pheonix broke up? So we have athena cases and young pheonix before the forging cases. It would be nice to have a new case that has the same feel as the first game. If athena is the main attorney to solving pheonixs long forgotten feelings and emotions, at the same time having cases that has the old days, back when phoenix only has pearls and maya then i think it would be a hit. Who knows. Maybe iris died due to murder And phoenix still doesn't know who killed her?
"Eh, why not Athena's theme? Maybe it won't be so bad now that I listen to it again." *plays* "Oh my GOD Athena could you get anymore saccharine and annoyingly happy? Yeesh... maybe take a cynicism class once in a while." "Hey, what's this R~ thing he put? Wonder what that is..." *plays* "NOPE NOPE NOPE I'M GOOD THANKS I'M JUST GONNA GO LEAVE AND DROWN IN A PIT OF TEARS 'KAY BYE" ("I retract my previous objections...")
Assistants, not themes list: 1. Susato Mikotoba- she is literally perfect, a unique departure from being a "Maya clone," is always helpful without coming across as gimmicky, and I really love her relationship with Naruhodou. 2. Pearl Fey- I will protect this precious child with every fiber of my being. 3. Iris Warson 4. Rayfa Padma Khura'in- even if she's not listed here, she's best SoJ character for me, she had a really compelling arc throughout the game and was in general handled way better than Nahyuta. 5. Ema Skye- I honestly really enjoyed her role in RftA, as she's actively participating in it and isn't just there for the ride, and her personality in AJ made me like her even more. 6. Maya Fey- I've really gotten tired of how often she gets kidnapped and arrested (I would've just preferred that she didn't appear in SoJ at all) but she was always great throughout the trilogy and added a lot to Phoenix's growth. 7. Trucy Wright- I don't really like the magic panties gimmick (especially seeing as it was the only thing she did in DD) but other than that, great character. 8. Athena Cykes- I like her, but let's face it, she was never a necessary addition to the series to begin with, her backstory is too similar to Edgeworth's, and she really hasn't grown much as a lawyer so far. 9. Kay Faraday- again, I like her, but she kind of just feels thrown in there so Edgeworth can have an assistant, and other than I2-4, I just don't really think she's that interesting.
Nice list and it's similar to what I think except with a few changes 1. Iris would be higher 2. Ema would be at the bottom (She's either your Forensic version of Maya or just a boring ass investigator)
I preferred trucys aj personality but I liked emas soj personality better But other than that I agree (They did try to force maya into soj, but mostly in turnabout revolution)
Personally, I'd like the series to lead with Athena and Trucy in their own game as a pair. Phoenix is forever linked with Maya and Edgeworth really should have either a new game of cases with Kay as counsel
Yup, I decided since there was an updated video, I might as well update my list. (On a sidenote, I do edit these whenever my opinions on music changes, which does tend to happen quite a bit.)
What's Athena doing here? Unless you count her as her own teenage assistant girl she doesn't really count, since she's a playable lawyer, rather than assistant, unless you put apollo here as well as her assistant.
While that is true, it still stands that Athena fills the same role that every other assistant had in previous games. Provide commentary and advice during investigations and trials.
If that's the case then maya shouldn't be there, as you play as her for a short time in justice for all, when she is taken captive by Shelley de killer, you play through Maya's eyes.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks Mikotoba looks almost exactly like Iris. The other Iris. Iris... Fey? Hawthorne? The world will never know.
"All Female Assistant Themes" You owe it to your kindred folk to make "All Assistant Themes" that's exactly the same as this but with Simon Blackquill in the mix.
A brief summary: Maya - magical ghost girl that somehow Phoenix thought it'll be a good idea to bring to court. Ema - Doraemon if she was a human girl. Pearl - another magic ghost gurl but somehow better than Maya. Trucy - delusional magucian who uses panty to do her tricks. Kay -tHe aLmIgHtY gReaT tHieF that somehow hasn't stolen anything yet. Athena - an attorney who can hear hearts or whatever it means. Susato - the only sane assistant in the ehole franchise. Iris - a kid that manages to go to Court without much problem.
i was listening to this from another tab, expecting just some cheery and upbeat background music, so the heartbroken maya theme caught me COMPLETELY off guard... i actually went _"noooooooo they didn't..."_ out loud 😭
it playes 1 or 2 times when she isn't but yeah, it's her objection! theme. xD -and I still think they should have played Objection! 2013 after showing the decisive evidence in turnabout academy-
I kinda really like Maya's 2016 theme, ngl. The brass and the more laid-back tempo really speak to me for some reason, it feels like it matches SOJ Maya well.
For the sake of this list, Ema Skye 2016 is a detective theme, not an assistant. 1. Susato Mikotoba- Blooming Flower in a New World 2. Kay Faraday- the great truth burglar. 3. Susato Mikotoba- Serenade. 4. Iris Watson- a small biographer. 5. Child of Magic 2007. 6. The Girl's Lost Memories. 7. Ema Skye Turnabout Sisters 2005 8. Turnabout Sisters 2002 9. With Pearly 2002 10. Tragic Memories 11. Let's do This 12. Turnabout Sisters 2001 13. With Pearly 2013 14. Child of Magic 2013 15. Heartbroken Maya 16. Turnabout Sisters 2016 (the jazzy instruments just don't fit Maya, even after how much she's matured.)
Maya had her own sister and mother killed, ema saw a murder take place in front of her eyes, pearl's mother and sister (dahlia) are both bitter, trucy's birth dad died, and finally, Athena's mother was killed by a spy, then the scene was made to look like she killed her own mother which made her feel terrified
@@jezailbrett1109 Amnesia is the least of Kay's traumas. Her father was killed with her in the same building, and the culprit got away right in front of her.
