what shocks me the most is even without reading into the fanbase for this game or anything else fan made, the grumps STILL picked up on the gay subtext between edgeworth and phoenix, its just that strong
Well remember, according to NicoB lore, Maya is a shipper of nearly all categories of Yaoi (with one exception seen so far being The Judge and his Bailiff). She's probably hiding in the bushes of Garreg Mach spying on the relationship between Dimitri and Bizzlead.
I knew Wrightworth was a thing, but knew nothing about the game and so thought it was just one of those stretch ships, but after watching Game Grumps play it, I totally get it 😂
“Wow! Having my whole family dead sure is fun!” I mean she has SOME alive family members... Who end up trying to kill her and frame her for murder later on :P
Maya: I do my best thinking under a waterfall Phoenix: ... Maya: like this one time I was standing under a waterfall and I had a really great idea Phoenix: what was the idea? Maya: to get out of the waterfall and go get a towel Phoenix: -_- ...
Edgworth always pissed me off during his trial. It's like Dude, Help solve this case! Don't just sit there, You're a Lawyer too! If YOU hear a contradiction, SAY SOMETHING!
I'm pretty sure Edgeworth blacked out after the shots so he isn't entirely sure what happened (he originally thought that the "victim" killed himself) also Maya is your partner and she takes up the other half of the defense desk so there's no room for him (unlike the Maggey case where Maya was absent)
0:42 the way Maya starts jumping in her chair to stop herself from laughing while Phoenix is looking away, (bright red, mind you) is just, muah, chefs kiss
It’s funny to me that people are surprised that they ship it - like it’s so obvious even before you play the game. I only started playing the trilogy like a week ago but I knew of the characters and I shipped them for ages before I started the game. Tbh though I kinda thought the only reason people shipped it was because they were rivals and it was like a classic “ship the protagonist with the antagonist” thing, and that was enough for me to ship it honestly. But now I’ve actually gotten to play the game, I can’t see how anyone WOULDN’T ship these two I mean? Unless you’re just an idiot? There’s so much ship fodder for them and I’ve not even played the whole game yet!
