Character Introduction (Investigations 2): Eddie Fender

This is the 42nd post in the Ace Attorney Investigations Collection Countdown: 39 days left until release!

Today's topic: Eddie Fender Character Introduction!

Like with Justine (Verity) I'll be using his fan-translated name, Raymond (Ray) Shields, throughout this post.

Ray's introduction mostly paints him as mysterious, probably to invoke the way he gets introduced in the game with Miles being familiar with him but not having seen him in years and Gumshoe and Kay having no idea who he is. The introduction mentions this mysterious relationship with Ray knowing something about Miles' past but not specifying what and instead framing it as a question of what they could have to do with each other considering Miles is a prosecutor and Ray a defense attorney. It's kind of funny how intriguing Ray's introduction tries to make this sound when Gregory's introduction readily admits that Ray used to be his assistant which is their entire connection. You also find this out pretty quickly in the game and Ray mostly becomes a supportive figure. I guess they didn't want to spoil that though (especially because Ray spends a good part of I2-2 needling Miles about being Manfred's disciple before he's convinced that Miles has changed) so they only talk about this initial mystery. Doesn't help when Gregory's introduction spoils it then though.

Apart from this Ray is also described as always joking around (very true and something that actually annoys Miles sometimes) yet at the same time as being surprisingly perceptive, a skilled defense attorney and easily seeing through others' tricks. Especially the latter two are more of an informed ability as we never see Ray directly work as a defense attorney or confront someone. Still, there are several occasions where he helps Miles out of a bind or gives helpful advice of different kinds so he's definitely perceptive enough that the other points would easily follow.

Ray's full character artwork comes across as pretty neutral to me. He's definitely confident and more relaxed than confrontational which fits his joking nature but apart from that nothing really stands out. I like that he holds his hand to his hat (like he does when running) to kind of direct the attention towards it as it used to be Gregory's hat and therefore holds a lot of meaning for Ray. His chosen chibi sprite animation is him shrugging which I'd call his quintessential animation as it perfectly encapsulates his laid-back attitude. Very good choice and I like the facial expression he gives with it, that sort of half-smile.

They all disappear, leaving only Ace.

Geats IX has replaced LaserBoost in these shots

I thought her ID was destroyed? She can’t be a Rider anymore? Although I guess Ace can remove that wish.

No more power to crush all Riders. Get a new final form.

And for the first time, not their Entry forms
