A thoroughly charming game; breaking many franchise traditions while still evolving the series in both a narrative and gameplay perspective. Loved the music and all the new characters even if I would've preferred more time spent showing Ryunosuke's friendship with Sholmes but even then that's a stretch. Sholmes' deductions were a great addition to investigation sequences making them just as action packed as court segments. Each case has a purpose too unlike most Ace Attorneys and you can feel Ryunosuke and friends struggle through it all in such a believable way; not to mention the heaps and bounds of depth to the setting which makes the world feel so much more believable. One of the bests of the franchise for sure!
