Franziska’s insistence on perfection is an attempt to live up to her father’s legacy despite that legacy being built on lies and ruining countless lives including that of the person Franziska loves most. Accepting that she is not and cannot be perfect is a major step in her development into not only a better person but a happier one. And despite all of this, every time she declares her own perfection my immediate impulse is to agree with her

#ace attorney #yes she kind of sucks especially at first. that’s the point #I wish the investigations games ever went into half the things they do to her #but then completely failing to engage with her emotions makes it an accurate miles edgeworth simulator #I get that you’re not in a great place yourself post jfa but come on #‘my father just got convicted of murder and probably executed and I don’t know how to be anything but what he made me #I will never be good enough for anyone else and I’m terrified the last person I care about will leave me behind too’#‘you should be scared and I will absolutely do that if you don’t redouble your efforts at this impossible goal. seeya’#I love Edgeworth and I get what he was trying to do but. come on #and then he does it in investigations 2! he told her that they would stay together as long as they were both prosecutors and then he stopped #and it wasn’t about her but maybe that’s worse #she uprooted her entire life and went to another country to try to send a message that she loved him #he couldn’t even keep doing the thing he had been doing for years #(yes this is a wildly selfish way of framing it. she’s literally 19)#all of this is to say: man.#franziska von karma #she’s so pretty but at what cost
