Two Asexuals Play Smash or Pass | ACE ATTORNEY TRILOGY 

30:00 Maya would definitely go "Sorry for not uploading a new chapter I got framed for murder again" on ao3 before every chapter

Idk why this was recommended to me, but I’m about to listen to two strangers play smash or pass for lawyer game while I clean my room

Gumshoe would take you to dinner?? With his salary??? You'd be lucky to be invited to his tiny drafty apartment and given some lukewarm instant noodles

No idea why this has been recommended to me, but as an Asexual Ace Attorney fan, I relate heavily to this.

Will Powers has to wear the costume because he's intimidating, not because he's ugly. He's 8 feet tall and built like a truck, plus he's got an angry-looking natural expression, but he's genuinely one of the nicest characters in the series. He scared Mia by walking into the visitor's room, but the second he talked, she warmed up to him.

Fun fact: Mike Meekins is 6’2. He is one of the tallest characters in the series.

Whenever i see Sal, my first thought is "Officer, its this one. Right here." And that line that maya says when she meets powers. "He definetly did it. Murder. At least one, maybe twice."

Y’all took ACE attorney fan to a whole new level lmaooo

Ah shit, we forgot the Canadian judge. Pass from both of us

"You sickly Victorian child" "Thats what Edgeworth is" Absolutely cracked me up lmao

Penny Nichols is absolutely an aroace neurodivergent who doesn't need a partner unless it's a dueling partner for the Steel Samurai TCG

Seeing you talk about Larry being a normal type gym leader is SO FUNNY because there’s a normal type gym leader named Larry in the actual games and they could NOT be any more different in personality

I played along, turning it into "2 asexuals and a pansexual play Smash Or Pass". And they were usually the same answers as you.

This was recommended to me, and as a fellow asexual ace attorney fan, I absolutely love this

My favorite thing about the Ace Attorney Fandom is how even though practically none of the characters are directly written to be homosexual, or attracted to the same sex, EVERYONE makes at least a gay ship for plenty of the characters. And I'm all for it.

The way I WHEEZED at "He looks like a PEZ dispenser" 😭😭😭

HELLO as an asexual and an ace attorney fan this was lovely to watch ALL YOUR SMASHES WERE SO VALID!! glad to see I am not the only one who thinks franziska is sdfghjkhgfd yes

I refuse to believe Gumshoe's feelings for Edgeworth have a heterosexual explanation.

as a demisexual this is fucking valid as hell this is THE MOST VALID AA video of all time 11/10

I have a joke for you: What do you call a gathering of asexual Ace Attorney fans? A card deck (this joke sucks I’m so sorry) Also I absolutely love this- this is fucking funny

As an asexual ace attorney fan, this is relatable. Also Matt Engarde my beloved

Ace Attorney? More like Ace Attorney

i will never shut up about asexual ace attorney puns. you guys r truly the ace attorneys.

wow these aces really can attorney

Fun fact! Gregory Edgeworth is based off of Atticus Finch.

This video is the singularity point where all Ace-Ace Attorney Fans gather it seems

13:43 - Now thinking about it, the creator of Ace Attorney has something with naming animals with a dead fiance's name. If you played Ghost Trick, you know.

It's very weird hearing that Maya registers as a child Because it makes sense, but I don't get that at all because I first played Ace Attorney when I was like 10 And now I'm about Maya's age in like, the third game, and I still have the biggest crush on her

Wow, so many fellow asexuals Ace Attorney fans✨✨✨ we all gathered here to watch this and go "relatable" without prior planning, amazing.

I'd say smash to Pheonix and Miles and then make them come to the same bedroom, and just never show up.😏

Hello fellow aces! 🤗 as a single hetero-asexual boomer man of 31 years-old, this is an interesting video that you got here and also nice to see different types of people on the ace spectrum nowadays somehow so keep up the good works and other random stuff ok 👍.

I wasn't aware there were so many other asexual Ace Attorney fans out there, but I guess the series is called ACE attorney after all. Good to see I finally have some company here. Fun video.

I just wanted to say, as an ace AA fan, I never seen such an relatable "smash or pass" vid (both for this fandom and others) You guys talking about the characts personalites? The red flags? Going on dates? If they would treat you right? All of that when the SoP boils down to a one night stand kinda game? PEAK asexual behaviour. Now I finaly understand why I never quite "got it" when seeing other such vids. Time to dive tru the net and see if I can find more like these

maggey would be a smash if it didn’t upset gumshoe i must not upset gumshoe at all costs

I never really occurred to me how "normal" Godot looks, aside from the visor obviously

as an asexual who just bought myself ace attorney for xmas after years of backseat gamer-ing it, i am SO glad this wound up on my recommended page

I'm so glad gumshoe got the love he deserves ❤

This video is “We don’t smash, but if we did…”

5:14 I don't think his relationship with Grossberg is an obstacle for him It certainly didn't stop him from smashing Mia, eh? get it, get it? ... ... Yeah, I'm the pinnacle of humor.

If you ever keep doing this, you're going to lose it when you get to the great ace attorney chronicles.

As an asexual this was fun to play along with

my favorite part of the aa community is that everyone agrees most characters are absolutely gay as hell, it's not even a debate

I wish all fellow ace ace attorney fans a very pleasant turnabout.

I mean Dahlia did kill Doug Swallow for no reason other than he'll expose her for the poisoning lmfao

I think all of the asexual Ace Attorney fans (me) have been summoned to this video - also the sims did Miles so dirty! XD He is my absolute favorite fictional character of all time ever!!!

Nursing student who is also ace and likes ace attorney here! No clue what Hotti’s diagnosis is so it’s a bit difficult to say what the best course of action would be. For addressing patients with delusions tho, often the best course of action is distraction. Don’t agree with the delusion, but also flat out telling them it is wrong may be distressing. So in this case, if he is claiming to be a hospital director, I’d give him a task to do, like a coloring page or a word search, so he gets distracted and hopefully dismisses the delusion on his own. I would also make sure he doesn’t have access to hospital badges or lab coats, or anything that would make him look like he has authority in a hospital setting. As for his diagnosis… it can go either way. The itching can be a sign of some sort of infection, which may cause delirium depending on the severity and cause. Or the itching is a nervous tic, or the sign of a hallucination (ie thinking you feel bugs crawling all over you).

Me being an aro/ace that simps for fictional characters but not people irl: *confused screaming noises*

Damon Gant looks like a muppet i will not elaborate

You can find a translated version of AAI2 online pretty easy. I dare the say it is ABSOLUTELY THE BEST AA GAME EVER. It's worth the viruses lmao

Joining in as an Ace Attorney fan that's Asexual! Phoenix Wright: smash, he's nice guy TRULY Larry Butz: 100% pass past game 1, why did they write him worse The Judge: I'm going to pass but I mean I could see the appeal Mia Fey: SMASH. No question Winston Payne: Pass. Cindy Stone: Pass, she's not serving anything The Bellboy: Pass Marvin Grossberg: Pass Dick Gumshoe: Smash HE'S THE BEST man I love that giant dog of a man April May: Pass, shitty personality Redd White: Pass, red flag Miles Edgeworth: PASS HE'S A FUCKING CLOWN HE'S GOT MCDONALD'S VENTS FOR HAIR Sal Manela: Pass, red flag sexualizing minors Wendy Oldbag: Pass, I don't particularly like her attitude Will Powers: SMASH he is so silly guy Jack Hammer: Pass there's nothing going for him Penny Nichols: Pass, she's cute though! I'd like to hangout with her Dee Vasquez: Pass, she's pretty but not enough above like. Being a murderer Lotta Hart: She's a smash I will stand by this I love her Manfred von Karma: We considered this??? Pass Robert Hammond: Pass, nothing going for him Gregory Edgeworth: SMASSSHSHHHHHH OUGH DILF DILF DILF Yanni Yogi: I'll pass, sorry for your loss man but I'm not staying for it Mike Meekins: YOU GUYS PASSED HIM WHY HES SO SILLY SMASHHH Damon Gant: Pass he's a terrible terrible man and he hurt Ema and Lana. Smash on Drayden from Pokemon though since you guys mentioned him Bruce Goodman: Saul Goodman's long lost brother. Pass, he's cute though he's got silly eyes with the eyebrows Jake Marshall: No I'm smashing him absolutely cowboy moment he's so attractive he's so Bisexual btw Lana Skye: SMASSHHHHH Angel Starr: OH NY GOOD SMASHHHHH I NEED HER TO PUNCH MY FACE WITH HER FACE Joe Darke: Pass oh my god he's sour Neil Marshall: Pass but he's cute besides that smirk Maggey Byrde: Smash she is super cute I want to hold her in my hands Dustin Prince: UGLYYY Pass. Maggey you chose this man????? Richard Wellington: He's so fucking dramatic I hate his personality though I have to pass Hotti: PASS HES GROSS HES SOOOO GROSS Morgan Fey: SHES SO HOT BUT SHE'S SUCH A TERRIBLE PERSON.. PASS??? I GUESS Franziska Von Karma: THE SMASH EVER SHE WOULDN'T SMASH ME THOUGH Turner Grey: Pass, he's sus ALSO ONLY NOW YOU MADE THE SAUL GOODMAN JOKE Ini Miney: For me it's a Pass, she is super pretty and I don't think she did anything wrong but she just. Something's off for me Mimi Miney: Pass she's pretty Maya Fey: No matter how old she is, I can't forget that we first met her at 17, so it's a Pass, ESPECIALLY in her Trilogy design. Her design in Spirit of Justice is CRAZY pretty she looks like her sister it makes me weep Acro: I'm going to Pass I don't like anyone from that case though. All of this case was bad Bat: Pass, I don't like creeps Russel Berry: Pass, he's probably nice Idk Max Galactica: Pass, I don't like creeps Moe: The only bearable man. Pass still Benjamin Woodman: Pass. I DON'T LIKE CREEPS Adrian Andrews: SMASH SHE'S SO FUCKING PRETTY. Anime did her SO dirty Shelly De Killer: Smash I'm going to be so honest he's so handsome Juan Corrida: His vibe is toxic I'm passing Matt Engarde: He's attractive. Favourite villain from the Trilogy, favourite final case in the Trilogy as well. JFA is my favourite game in the Trilogy also, so I'm a little biased too. I guess smash?? Celeste Inpax: Smash she's incredibly pretty Dahlia Hawthorne. PASS she got screwed over and everything was a mess but I don't really like her attitude completely. Also fandom made me dislike her a bit because of how they treat her versus how they treat Godot Feenie (Since you both mentioned him): Pass Doug Swallow: Pass so fucking boring Godot: SMASHHHH SMASH SMASH SMASH SMASH SMASH HE IS SOOOOOOO ATTRACTIVE Ron Delite: He's so cute but Pass he has his wife and they love each other Desiree Delite: SHES SO HOT BUT I'M GOING TO BE POLITE AND PASS she has her husband and they love each other Luke Atmey: Pass he's not serving anything he's sour Kane Bullard: Pass. There's nothing going for him Glen Elg: Pass nft bro Lisa Basil: She's super pretty but I'm going to pass Bruta Cadaverini: Pass, nothing going for him Viola Cadaverini: Idk she's giving teenager for me for some reason and I don't like that. She's super interesting though Jean Armstrong: Pass he's weirdly boring Victor Kudo: Pass I don't like him at all Furio Tigre: PASS HES SO ICK don't like his personality Terry Fawles: DISGUSTING I DON'T LIKE CREEPS. Valerie Hawthorne: She's crazy boring Pass Diego Armando: SMASHHH Elise Deauxnim (Misty Fey): Pass she's super pretty but thinking in it her running from her family was garbage. Sister Iris: She's very pretty, she seems super nice, get her out of prison, I'm going to pass still Sister Bikini: SMASH come on guys she owns her attitude and I love her even currently! Adam Mada: He actually looks like my uncle if my uncle if liked crypto instead of speedrunning. Pass TOP 5 5. Lana Skye 4. Godot/Diego Armando 3. Franziska von Karma 2. Mia Fey 1. Angel Starr Crazy looking at all of the Trilogy Designs btw because my favourite of the Ace Attorney games is The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles and while designs can get weird there, they are NOTHING compared to the weirdness of Trilogy Designs at times. Totally forgot some of these characters BAHSHAHAHA. TGAA has less men being built like trucks though (and it has Kazuma Asogi who would've solo'd this ranking for me I'm pathetic) Excited to see it if you both do this again with Apollo Justice! It used to be my favourite Ace Attorney game so I hope you all have fun with it, plus it has some great designs!

Sal Manella, as I’ve heard him described before, is literally the personification of a discord mod.

16:09 I mean someone struck him down on the witness stand

“Apperantly he can get it” ALLEGEDLY

Didn't expect to see this, but as one of many asexual Ace Attorney fans here, I love it. Even as someone who wouldn't smash, I've gotta admit these characters are very aesthetically pleasing and I would probably vibe with a lot of them.

I was hoping the joke would be that they were all pass because asexual

"He looks like a PEZ dispenser" made me shriek-laugh

"The anime doesn't do anyone any favors" *she says as the anime actually makes Cindy and quite a few others look better*

11:07 I KNOW THE EXACT FIC YOU ARE REFERENCING!! I remember that quote like its branded on my forehead it was so funny, Brief For The Defence is the funniest fic ive read in a long while its so worth it TwT

yeah maya feels more like a daughter to me, even in spirit of justice. meanwhile ema in apollo justice onwards is a smash.

Enjoyed this greatly and am glad I’m not the only “Manfred = Smash” person to exist on earth 🤭🤭🤭

Came for nothing Stayed for Edgeworth.

omg the larry assessment tho; in the new pokemon game theres actually a normal type gym leader named Larry. He wears a suit and carries a briefcase too as if he were an ace attorney charecter lmaoo. Love pokémon larry tho he's actually so great

yoooo the fandom is alive!!!! This is amazing i thoroughly enjoyed this as an asexual myself,,,

7:47 I gotta remember that one. That's a good diss.

Me: gets recommended this video Me: thinks, "eh, why not?" Me: gets a shout-out in the video Me: 👁👄👁

14:00 Near Christmas...? Near Christmas means it wasn't Christmas!

Gumshoe is.... A smash.

Russell Berry has a banana peel for a mustache 💀💀

Around Christmas means it wasn't Christmas

"Fuck Miles Edgeworth. I love him." literally bipolar disorder in a nutshell. (not hate btw I feel the same)

Wow, the recommended page really hit the mark on this one

You should definitely play the investigations games! Especially the second one, where you can play as DILF edgeworth and de killer makes a grand return. Also more hot characters :)

Had this playing while saying smash or pass unknowingly while washing dishes

Ayo you gotta drop that assassin!Nick fic now that you’ve mentioned it Can’t just leave us hanging!

Dustin Prince has a symmetrical face, but it still looks like they should've flipped the canvas.

never have i ever been so invested or gotten so heated over a smash or pass video, this is ART

fellow ace here and I can totally agree franziska is so smash .

I have no idea why RU-vid recomended this video for me but as an assexual Ace Attorney fan I feel like I'm going to really enjoy it.

As a fellow ace, Adrian is the biggest smash for me, like I don't even think I have a type but she's definitely my type, she's so attractive for some reason

YES FINALLY asexuals play smash or pass! I am very excited to see how this goes (I'm not even 10 seconds into the video yet) as a fellow asexual!

I'm ace too and OH MY GOD you guys just totally get Gumshoe he is so unbelievably underrated but he deserves the most love possible,he is such a sweetheart T-T❤️ Ond of the only acceptably straight guys in the series

Ever since you mentioned the shelly de killer trains Phoenix fic I can't stop thinking about it I have to find it 😭

The whole cast of AA, JA,T&T, Apolo Justice, Miles Edgeworth, Phoenix vs Layton, the japanese game: exist Me: pass Godot: /breathes/ Me: sMASH

a flattering image of phoenix would be in the tutorial in justice for all.

YESS INI MINEY APPRECIATION!! she did no wrong fr edit: AND OH MY GOD ADRIAN ANDREWS LOML. she is the biggest lesbian i swear

Oh yeah. The Great Ace Attorney brought back Winston Payne's hair style from Apollo Justice. Which is a funny call back.

the fact that two asexuals are playing smash or pass is very funny thank you

Asexual ace attorney fans rise up lol! Didn’t know this was a thing but at last my people!

I don’t know who needs to know this, but I can literally SMELL Lotta Hart every time I see her. Pass…..

The algorithm has brought me to my people. Us ace ace attorney fans are too powerful

I Love the collective pause when we get to Edgeworth

I apologize but miles and phoenix will always be smashes in my book until proven otherwise

lmao was this video recommended to all the fellow asexual ace attorney fans? How funny.

Wait till you to great ace attorney. The amount of simping I've seen for herlock is truly a beauty.

As another asexual ace attorney fan, I also love will powers and gumshoe

Wow is every character we all want in only ace attorney game yet to be translated

joe darke looks like if hawkmoth was a serial killer lowkey.

So this gets recommended to me, on Christmas. And I completely ignore all my growing questions and admiration to your knowledge of the series, to make sure of something: *_Damn right Gumshoe is a Smash! Best Character in AA! Fight me!_*

God when you guys said Sickly Victorian Child my mind somehow went to Viola looking all Yandare like and start singing really creepy songs while making breakfast which is poisoned. Then just basically run at you all Yuno Gasai style (If you are unfamiliar it's from Mirai Nikki aka Future Diary)

Severely disappointed that this wasn't just an hour of them repeatedly saying "pass"
