Line Without A Hook - Ace Attorney PMV 

The ‘I found you crying by the lake’ really does match, huh?

Ace attorney really is “what if u found ur family in court”

The "if i could take it all back" part speaks to me. So does Miles picking up a sleeping Fransiska.

God this is a BEAUTIFUL summary of AA1 through 3, I was transfixed the whole time, your use of colors and posing and framing was just... aaaAAAAAA

Ace Attorney fandom really never dies, huh? We always come back

Every frame matches up to the story and the lyrics so well and is so beautifully drawn holy shit,, it’s so clever and wonderful and AAAAA

IM GOING TO CRY THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL OH MY GOD

The way that this is one of the best AMV/PMVs in this fandom??? And it's all hand-drawn??? Who gave you the RIGHT to make something so good and perfect??? lmao. This makes me want to go play the trilogy all over again. I'm so in love with everything you did here.

oh my. god I am in tears this honestly felt much longer that 4 miniutes and I mean that 100% positively, this is beautiful and I had already seen the confetti drawings on tumblr but this is just... another level to be honest, thank you for creating it and introducing me and probably a few others to this song!

this is so stunning. in particular: the way you paralleled phoenix standing next to mia with godot standing next to his younger self?? oh my god i got chills

dude, you have affected my life way more than you’ll understand, so glad to see your new work. everything fits so nicely and every frame is just fantastic

the folds in the clothes, in addition to the motion and weight portrayed in said clothes and hair, is really well-done, it retains a somewhat whimsical feel while still remaining consistent. The expressions and other things indicating emotion are just gorgeous, able to convey the feeling necessary in a short amount of time, in addition to each illustration looking good on its own! It's a lot of effort to get it this good, and it shows (in a good way)! Also, slower songs like this don't usually hold my attention, and it takes something really good for me to be able to sit through the whole thing, so be proud!

I literally cried????? THIS IS SO GOOD!!! THE CINNAMON TOPOGRAPHY 😭😭😭

AAAA the first "crying at the lake" part I SCREAMED and the FRANZISKA PART and the END so much of this matches PERFECTLY and you did such an amazing job with the whole thing!!!

This is absolutely beautiful and breathtaking!!! My favorite panels are definitely when baby Miles picks up sleeping even more baby Franziska. Ah but they're so cute at the beginning with little phoenix kissing miles scrapped knee and holding his hand and then the hug at the end!!!! AH! Great work!!!!!!!

SOCKS BLOWN RIGHT OFF SKFJKSHFJS INCREDIBLE

I can't tell you how many times I've fantasized about an ace attorney animatic/pmv for this song. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING IT A REALITY. It's beautiful, every frame fits the song and the storyline so well! Keep up the great work!

don't mind me just gonna go sob in a corner i swear this fandom is choking me by a griphold with these animatics because WHY ARE THEY ALL SO BEAUTIFUL AND GAY AND LOVELY???? like more please nomnom you are an amazing animator and artist my friend! i believe in you!!

THIS IS SO AMAZING,,,, GOD EACH FRAME BROUGHT ME CLOSER TO TEARS the emotions seen in each character is beautiful this is so well done!

Do I know what’s going on? Not really. Did I enjoy this regardless? Absolutely. Love the lighting bits!!! Simple but lovely. And the bits of symbolism I managed to catch - there was a knife in someone’s back, wasn’t there. Either way, I had fun watching this!!! Amazing job!

ONE OF THE BEST AA PMVS IVE SEEN

I have no idea how many times I've rewatched this but u can bet I'm gonna do it Again

WOw. Wow. every frame is drawn in perfect detail and is so chilling and I LOVE the moment with Godot and Diego and Franciska at the end of JFA and just HOW YOU DRAW PHOENIX and Mia always watching over him... woah. speechless.

Omg I can't describe how much I felt while watching your animatic Thank you so much It's beautiful💖💕💖 (In mia's moments I actually cried 🤣)

THE IMAGERY OF US NOT REALLY SEEING MILES FACES DURING THE HUGS TO THE END WHERE ITS THE FOCUS IS SO DETAILED AND THIS ANIMATIC IS SO GOOD OMG

This is BEAUTIFUL. It captures their journey in an accurate and emotional way that I've never seen before and I'm in love. I cried real tears watching this, it's fantastic!! ❤

This has got be the best animatic I have ever seen! I’m absolutely stunned! I’ve never even played the games before, but I can feel just every ounce of emotion put into it that it has truly affected me. You did such an amazing job that I can’t even convey how in awe I am! Thank you so much for this!

Wait a minute. Was that all traditional art??? (On paper) Edit: i just read the description which confirmed my suspicion, but how in the world are you so talented?! I can’t even draw something I’m somewhat happy with on paper. Keep up the good work

Cant count on 2 hands (or even 20, if i had them) how many times ive rewatched this, and im at the point where i feel like not leaving a comment would be disrespectful lmao, as someone who sometimes assists in storyboards (and loves ricky m) i hope you know people are still here enjoying your work!! :) ❤

i first found this animatic about a month ago - when i was only halfway through aa3. i didn’t fully understand all the references, but i knew enough to love the animatic back then. i just finished the final case of the trilogy a few minutes ago, so i obviously had to come back to this video to cry about it again! the experience of playing the case made me appreciate this so much more, and vice versa. words cannot describe how much i adore this video, and i’d like to thank you for making me cry my eyes out

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!! OH MY GOD!!!!!

i've only gotten into this fandom recently, i wanted to do so sooner, but ALL OF THESE MASTERPIECES KEEPS MAKING ME TEAR UP ITS SO PAINFUL?? i enjoyed staring at this, thank u

I can't stop watching this. As of writing this I've watched this video 7 times in the last three days. I can't stop thinking about it either. What a masterpiece. And the way the lyrics synch with the video is perfection.

CRYING IN THE CLUB RN THIS IS SO PRETTY............

Your art is beautiful and you conveyed the story so well- This is absolutely brilliant.

id like to thank you for making this, because first of all its awesome, second of all, this was the first time id heard line without a hook, and despite its dismal lyrics, youve made it into a song of hope for me. which is good, because comboing a good song with an AA hyperfixation is a recipe for it getting absolutely stuck in my head. it has been here for like 12 hours. god am i glad that it makes me feel lighter because of the hope and love in this animatic.

did i cry to this? yes i did wtf tyhis is so beautiful I love the way you draw everyone, they all flow so smoothly;y and looks so fluffy wtf ;-;

I cried a very normal amount to this I swear.

I watched this for the first time a long while ago, I think its actually what introduced me to your channel? I come back to watch it again every once in a while. Its really wonderful work. I absolutely love the mix of your wonderful traditional work and the soft glow of digital coloring. I absolutely love the story you tell of how poor Phoenix really goes through hell in these games, and how absolutely relieved he looks whenever he wins a case. And that scene where he reaches for Edgeworth and all he gets is the paper, which is presumably the "Miles Edgeworth chooses death" paper,,, really amazing Every scene that has Mia in it is a beautiful gut punch but I dont want this to get too long lolol

Stop I’m crying Ace Attorney is my comfort blanket when everything goes wrong and this just moves me so much even when it all goes wrong I have the fantasies I make up in my brain

my god I watched this basically when it came out AND IT STILL STANDS UPPPP A WORK OF ART OMG 😭❤️

THIS WAS THE AMV THAT INTRODUCED ME TO LINE WITHOUT A HOOK AND RICKY MONTGOMERY IN GENERAL THIS IS STILL AN AMAZING VIDEO OMGGGGYG 💜💜💜💜💜

Oh man, as the video continued on, I could just feel tears starting to well up in my eyes. The effort you’ve put into this is great! I can see the effort put you’ve into this. You’re great.

This is absolutely stunning and I cannot count how often I rewatched it in the last few days. Every single line of the song works so well with the drawings and I love that they are done traditionally. 😍

You really didn’t have to make me go and cry like that over a game trilogy that’s ~20 years old That being said, this is possibly one of my favourite animatics, for the AA games and possibly ever

A year later I was playing my liked music on shuffle and this song came on. I was going CRAZY trying to figure out where I first heard it and by a stroke of luck this animatic showed up in a mix on youtube. I can FINALLY rest easy!

phoenix's eyes are the only hetero thing about him and i think that's beautiful (no seriously i love when people give him one brown eye and one blue eye it's The Best) also it definitely didn't take me until, like, the halfway mark to realise why he had a mouth scar LMAO listen nobody said i was smart ANYWAY instead of rehashing what everyone else has said i will just say that my favourite bit is probably edgeworth and phoenix at 2:00 and then little pearly clinging to phoenix at the trial ;-----; your honor i love them all so much

I do not have enough words to describe how much I love this video. I watch it again and again and at the end of each trial when the confetti rains I am an emotional wreck. Just. The music. The art. The storyboarding you did that so perfectly blend the trials into a coherent rollercoaster of emotion. All those words and they still can’t capture how much I love this.

oh my god how I'm I only discovering this now it's just insane how perfect that is. I swear that shit brought me to tears. I can't even describe what's it making me feel that's amazing

I KEEP COMING BACK TO THIS VIDEO AND EVERY TIME IT STILL MAKES ME FEEL SO HGNHHNGNHNG YOU DID A REALLY GOOD JOB WRAPPING UP THE WHOLE TRILOGY IN ONE SONG

DOWN TO THE FRAME EVERYTHING FITS AND YOU ONLY DID THE TRIOLOGY TOO U FIT IN SO MUCH BOT TO MENTION UR DRAWINGS WHICH ARE GORGEOUS + THE LIGHTING ITS JUST SO WELL THOUGHT OUT AND GORGEOUS 😭😭❤️❤️❤️

I first found your Majora’s Mask video a while ago and I loved it. So my joy in finding this?? Immeasurable. This make me cry, oh my god. It’s incredible and so emotional. A wonderful use of this song. There’s so many little touches that I just. Adore.

i- i love this especially your edgeworth design and ghost mia design

the way this pmv perfectly shows why i fell in love w the series is actually so crazy, thank u for making this

this is literally breathtaking!!!!!!! the framing and the expressions are so raw and beautiful :0 !!!!!! your art style is gorgeous!!!!!!!!!

I remember watching this last year, like at least 10 months ago. This song became the most listened to song of that year because of this. Didnt know this song existed before that

listen. do I cry every time I rewatch this without fail or exception? maybe so. maybe so.

DUDE I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT HOW THIS SONG FITS AA PERFECTLY AND THEN I SEE THIS AND I BREAK DOWN CRYING this is by far the aa animation that has made me feel the biggest amount of emotions. it's beautiful and lines up so well and you art skills are mesmerizing

I’ve watched this three maybe four times already I am obsessed

Fucking gorgeous this literally brought me to tear, the details with the draw and lyrics are amazing

OKAY BUT IM SO OBSESSED

I absolutely love how you draw Maya

i'm a year late to this but i can't help but keep looping this video. the facial expressions are AMAZING and it's such a good summary of both phoenix and edgeworth throughout the trilogy....... it made me really emotional. the scenes with all the other characters were amazing as well (the scene right before the AA2 airport scene and the one where mia stands next to phoenix only for godot to Realize made me feel a lot of things). i love the way every little moment is portrayed and in general i just absolutely love this video, you did amazing!!!

this came up in my recs while i was watching a playthrough of the trilogy for the first time ever, so i saved it to watch later. well, i've just finished the trilogy and come straight back here, and man. maaannnn this is so well done. tears in my eyes!!

I love the way you draw noses

This is my favorite ace attorney animatic all of the frames are so clean and emotional and beautiful :')

Found you initially from one of your Submas animatics. Recently found out about this song and was like “omg an AA animatic I love AA!” And was completely shocked it was you!! Your style is so recognisable I had to do a double take omg. I love your work so much 😭💖

This is so incredibly made! That's a lot of work to capture almost the entire trilogy's story in 4 minutes so beautifully!

i was completely entranced for the entire four minutes, i even started tearing up a little at the end lmao. this is SO NEAT omg the fact that it's hand drawn too gives it this sorta... sincerity, if that makes sense (not that digital art is bad!!) but yeah this is literally hands down one of the best aa animatics i've seen ee good job on this and thank you for making it

I can't believe I JUST now found this!! This is so incredibly amazing!

1:34 IS SO NICELY DRAWN OH MY GOD MIA'S SPIRIT IS SO PRETTY???? GIVE ME YOUR TALENT????

BAE WAKE UP, ITS THE BEST ACE ATTORNEY FAN ANIMATION!

I’ve come back because this is so cool, Great PMV!

ohhh i just got caught up on your ace attorney pmvs and theyre all so good! i love how this one goes through the trilogy and the use of colors is so nice........ one of my favorite shots/bits is with phoenix and edgeworth with the magatam chains, it's very cool!

How is everything about this so perfect?? The lyrics, the art, the timing, everything! Also: "I'm not crying... are you..?"

THIS IS SO GOOD I CANT BELIEVE IT WAS HAND DRAWN???

HOLY FUCK THIS IS THE EXACT ANIMATIC IVE IMAGINED IN MY HEAD EVERY TIME I LISTEN TO THIS SONG AND I JUST KIND OF ASSUMED NOBODY HAD MADE IT YET. I'm SO GLAD someone else did- and so well, too!!!!!!! holy fuck!!!!!!! your ARTWORK and your EDITING!!!!!!!!! gosh i love the scenes- esp the ones with the confetti????????? hh

UR ART MAKES ME SO HAPPY AMAZING TY

THE PART WITH FRANZISKA BROKE MY HEART

THIS IS LITERALLY SO GORGEOUS, IVE WATCHED IT LIKE 5 TIMES ITS SO GOOD!!!!!

THIS IS AWESOME I'M CRYING MY EYES OUT

Idk if anyone needs these but here are the lyrics! *Line Without a Hook - Ricky Montgomery* I don't really give a damn about the way you touch me When we're alone You can hold my hand If no one's home Do you like it when I'm away? If I went and hurt my body, baby Would you love me the same? I can feel all my bones coming back And I'm craving motion Mama never really learns how to live by herself It's a curse And it's growing You're a pond and I'm an ocean Oh, all my emotions Feel like explosions when you are around And I've found a way to kill the sounds, oh Oh, baby, I am a wreck when I'm without you I need you here to stay I broke all my bones that day I found you Crying at the lake Was it something I said to make you feel like you're a burden? Oh, and if I could take it all back I swear that I would pull you from the tide Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa I said no (I said no), I said no (I said no) Listen close, it's a no The wind is a-pounding on my back And I found hope in a heart attack Oh at last, it is past Now I've got it, and you can't have it Baby, I am a wreck when I'm without you I need you here to stay I broke all my bones that day I found you Crying at the lake Was it something I said to make you feel like you're a burden, oh And if I could take it all back I swear that I would pull you from the tide Darling, when I'm fast asleep I've seen this person watching me Saying, "Is it worth it? Is it worth it? Tell me, is it worth it?" Oh Guess there is something, and there is nothing There is nothing in between And in my eyes, there is a tiny dancer Watching over me, he's singing "She's a, she's a lady, and I am just a boy" He's singing, “She's a, she's a lady, and I am just *a line without a hook"* Oh baby, I am a wreck when I'm without you I need you here to stay I broke all my bones that day I found you Crying at the lake Was it something I said to make you feel like you're a burden, oh And if I could take it all back I swear that I would pull you from the tide

I'm not crying you are!

PLEASE ITS 3 AM IM CRYING BUT ALSO YOU DID SO WELL AND I LOVE YOU

This is absolutely gorgeous, I'm honestly just stunned.

why did I cry bro this is so good

The emotions in this.... im crying ❤

And I still cry watching this animation. Song, events... AA forever in my heart

THIS IS AMAZING OMG! IT PERFECTLY SHOWS THE PLOT + DEVELOPMENT OF CHARACTERS/RELATIONSHIPS THROUGHOUT THE TRIOLOGY, AND THE WAY YOU PORTRAYED EMOTION IS JUST SO POIGANT!!!

It’s perfect😭😭😭😭😭😭

I love how you actually did the "I ate it" thing and made it out to be more serious looking. Honestly I love the entire thing though.

This was so incredibly made,,, well done! I’m crying
