Fandom: aa7 main character should be Athena!

Me: CAPCOM PLEASE GIVE APOLLO ONE MORE GAME WHERE HE'S THE ONLY PROTAGONIST WITHOUT GIVING HIM ANOTHER BACKSTORY, FINALLY TELL HIM AND TRUCY THE TRUTH ABOUT THALASSA AND THEM BEING SIBLINGS, BRING KLAVIER AS PROSECUTOR AND EMA AS DETECTIVE AGAIN IT'S BEEN 17 YEARS FOR CHRIST SAKE! And then make an Athena game as the final in the franchise.

I mean if we think of Dual Destiny as an Athena game and give her 2 more games... she'll have a trilogy! And Apollo too! It's a win-win for both of them!

Here’s another poll for ‘Ace Attorney 7’...

[wall-maria-around-ba-sing-se]

I hope they make an ace attorney 7 and I hope they include Gumshoe and I hope they tell us where he’s been this whole time I hope the explanation is that a distant relative left him a huge sum of money and a house in their will such that he never has to eat cold instant ramen again or worry about having a pay cut and I hope-

In ace attorney 7 they should have a trial where maya is framed again and once you win the case she stabs phoenix and he dies. Which is now the next case. In which you defend maya

Klavier died in Ace Attorney 7.

on my way home from the gym i had a really stupid thought of "hey it's been 7/8 years since aa7 so what if capcom reflect that by doing another fucking time skip" i then tried to roll with this bad idea and flesh it out a bit and see what it could look like

so here i present to you my version of the worst ace attorney 7 pitch in da whole wide WORLD !!!

[SPOILERS FOR AA4 AND AA6, NOT REALLY AA5 CAUSE UH NOTHING TO REALLY SPOIL I GUESS LOL?]

come 2024 it will have been 8 years since AA6 so fuck it, 7 years time skip (Again 🙄🙄🙄) to reflect that time

introducing Ace Attorney 7, or Justice & Cykes: Ace Attorneys

Apollo has been in Khurain for the past 7 years restructuring its legal system, meanwhile Phoenix has retired from law to do the same with Edgeworth (who's stayed as Chief Prosecutor) in Japanifornia. He's still acting as a mentor to Thena and is still in charge of the WAA, but doesn't take cases himself any more. Him and Polly don't really keep in touch as much as they should, as both are too busy

maybe Apollo gets homesick tho, or Phoenix offers him his old job back or what, but either way a 31 year old Polly moves back to Japanifornia to be a lawyer there again

case 1 is a tutorial for two reasons:

1) apollo hasn't done law in this country in nearly a decade

B - phoenix has reworked the WHOLE system (i.e. introduced two fun mechanics from GAA)

it should be a simple case, but the problem is that this new system nick introduced fucking baffles polly: why does he now have multiple witnesses on the stand at once? and why is there a jury system? (does this take away from GAAs unique identity? idk)

he solves it btw ofc he does, with help from his professional magician assistant trucy

at the end of the case phoenix calls polly & trucy to his office and tells them they're siblings

cut to case two, where we are focused on an Athena case (possibly set before 7-1? so as to keep the weighty cliffhanger as long as possible). trucy is assistant for this too. fuck it. she's assistant for most/all of the game. trucy deserved better in 5 and 6, capcom.

reintroduction to investigation segments, which remain unchanged. athena, now mid 20s, is a lot more confident and independent, though maybe still needs to ask for help and advice from nick more than she'd like. solves a two day case just fine, even with new prosecutor (maybe Sebastian Debeste? or a rookie who has a similar character arc to us in previous games)

case 3 back to apollo, and him and trucy are probably taking the news itself well but not the fact it took OVER A DECADE FOR NICK TO TELL THEM, and it doesn't help that nick just pins it to him being too busy and forgetting lol

either way a case has come in so the two of them take it to distract themselves but there's gonna be a little awkward tension in the air throughout especially whenever they visit thena and nick

solve it

case 3 back to thena, and her journey of independence & also now dealing with Wright family drama lol

solves case

case 4 back to polly, who's still miffed but is trying to be an adult about it

solves case

case 5 nick is suspected of murder, and trucy is witness so Apollo and Athena work together to solve it, with alternating trial days or maybe one leading investigation and the other court

there'll be a moment where apollo can't help for whatever reason and this is athenas big breakthrough indepdence moment as she solves this bit alone

also guest prosecutor franzy von karma; reveal she was the mentor of previous prosecutor (maybe on the bench with her? why has this not been a thing other than dgs3-3 capcom.)

solves it's not nick or trucy, all of them gain confidence within each other and themselves

game over everyone's happy

Sorry for mass reblogging Country Gavin will do it again

Ok genuinely even if I wasn’t more of a fan of aa5 and 6 than most people are I still don’t understand why y’all think it won’t be good??? P sure the main writer for those left capcom and so the main people working on an aa7 would likely be the people that made tgaa which most people agree has like some of ace attorney’s best writing. And they’ve had years to see what fans want more of and less of (though that’s how we ended up in this situation anyway tbh, but that’s a post for another day) so in theory they must have some idea of what people want to see. Idk I just genuinely do not understand why people don’t want an aa7 or think it would suck when it’s also a way to patch up some plot lines from past games and create new plot lines people will enjoy like imo aa7 is more likely to “fix” things than make them “worse” but also maybe that’s just me liking games 5 and 6 anyway.

[elder-sister]

aa Experts, which prosecutor do I use in a case against Franziska von Karma?

[skunklebum]

For AA7 they should have a case where the police find human remains and evidence of cannibalism in Klavier Gavin’s LA home that he sold in 2013

The no-spoiler rule for AJ's trilogy makes no sense!

They didn't do this before with the og trilogy and didn't afterward with TGAA duology! What was going on in their heads?

"It's done so players can't get spoiled on previous games and play them later" - Capcom honey tell me who the f*ck would play SoJ before AJ or DD? Exactly no one! You're not a Persona numbered series that besides MIP, P2IS, and P2EP you can play in whatever order you want because it's different stories and different characters!

Ace Attorney is a series that follows the same characters and stories! The only ones you don't need to play to understand the AJ trilogy are TGAA and Investigations (sadly). But you would not understand who the hell is Phoenix if you hadn't played og trilogy before AJ!

It's only hurts the franchise because you can't continue to flash out the ideas and characters from the other games. Apollo and Trucy still don't know about Thalassa and them being siblings and it's been 17 years! They never continued the Gavin brother's storyline. And characters like Ema and Vera never returned or mentioned! Should I say something about og trilogy and investigation duology casts?

I hope that they learned the lesson and AA7 wouldn't have to live through the same bullsh*t.

[almond-tofu-chan]

Guys it’s time for the Capcom showcase I can’t wait for news on Ace Attorney 7!!!

[shoot-i-messed-up]

AA prediction: aa7's prosecutor claims to be a superhero who is trying to fight the supervillain both on the streets and uncover the supervillain's identity in court, but then it turns out that the "superhero" is actually the one pulling the strings behind each murder/crime, and the "supervillain" is actually a good guy who is secretly Apollo's cousin somehow, giving Apollo yet another backstory
