Happy Father’s Day

One of the best parts of the Apollo Justice game is the absurdity of the situation Apollo is in. Imagine you get hired by Frankie Jonas (you have no idea who the Jonas brothers are) and get asked to defend a local disbarred lawyer (who you do know). That disbarred lawyer adopted Criss Angel's daughter after he disappeared. Frankie Jonas killed Criss Angel. Two months later you find out you're going up against Joe Jonas in court and you haven't even heard Cake By The Ocean. Your client is a member of the LA mafia.

The next case you're on is a murder at Joe Jonas' concert, which you were invited to by him. His guest act was Björk, who unbeknownst to you is your mother. Also the mother of Criss Angel's daughter. But your father is not Criss Angel, it's Sufjan Stevens (deceased). The murderer of Björk's manager was Joe Jonas' bandmate JinJoo Lee.

The game culminates in David Blaine (who was in love with your mom, Björk) confessing to framing Criss Angel for David Copperfield's (your grandfather) suicide, and Frankie Jonas admitting that he has committed a second murder. And your new boss has been working with Interpol or some shit for the last seven years to take Frankie Jonas down and get his badge back.

-RANT FILLED WITH SPOILERS FOR ACE ATTORNEY: DUAL DESTINIES BELOW-

Ok listen. I LOVE Apollo Justice. Love him. He's great. Deserves better than the development he got.

however this man deserves so much worse for how he treated athena in the final case of Dual Destinies.

I realize that Ace Attorney is not a series that has realistic consequences for peoples actions or any real follow-through on interpersonal tension/strife, and that's fine, i don't think it necessarily should!

but bro. Hey Athena, I realize we're puzzling out the source of your 8 years of trauma after literally being a lab rat most of your childhood because of a confusing ability you have and then watching your mother be murdered in front of you and having to confront her attacker, but let me indict you for the murder of my best friend real quick!

'the evidence was pointing to her and i had to face my doubts' -- babe this is a bombing case. Athena's a smart cookie but she's an eighteen year old psychology major. There is no good reason to think that Athena of all people pulled off this complicated murder/sabotage situation.

Like, imo it would have been way cooler if it turned out that Apollo had been investigating on his own in order to look into the police force, because he realized the only way Athena's fingerprints could be on the lighter were from falsifying the evidence, and he knew that he needed to investigate the cops secretly to keep everyone safe.

but no he's like Athena the only explanation is you killed my best friend!

And I think it's very in Athena's characterization that she just kinda forgives him and moves on, so whatever, but boy! You should exile yourself in shame! If not for the betrayal of your friend, for the absolute dogshit logical conclusions you came to!

Finished replaying AA4. I never realized that 90% of Klavier's dialogue is him talking about Apollo's forehead. He literally asks if Apollo's "horns" are soft...
