Ropfa's nitpicky but well-intentioned advice:
As said, the outlines could use a bit of work. Some parts of the suit aren't well-defined enough.
For shading, it's rather the opposite. His suit looks fine, while the tones on his face could benefit from being more differentiated.
On the sprite with the paper, the paper needs some shading.
A few sprites could use some more anti-aliasing. There are some ares where the lines look very jagged and could be smoothed out, so that they look like actual lines, rather than individual pixels. Specifically, the area where his neck meets his collar.
There are a few poses where his mouth is drawn with a very light color. You should make it more consistent, so that it matches the tone of those with a darker hue. Look at the headshake animation, for instance. One some frames, you can see his mouth clearly and on others you can barely tell it's there.
In the final pose, his face doesn't look the same shape as it does in the others. His chin and jaw are a lot smaller.

I think he meant the one in your post where he's holding onto the paper. Your avatar looks nice too! A great GK sprite! Those are harder to edit as opposed to the originals.
Also with the colours, I changed them a little just to show you what I meant:

Oh wow! Nice recoloring on my character!
May I use this recoloring?
Thank you for doing this!

That one looks fine (I quite like the design as a whole!). Only you did the opposite with the shading on the suit, and made it a bit too contrasting. It's up to you if you want to fix it.

Yeah, I want my character to kind of match with GK.
I'll be right on it. Starting now.

I meant like this:
Oh you don't need to be sorry.
I kinda didn't get it when you meant by that.
And plus I don't know how to do it like you do.

Oh, hai.
I didn't actually make that; I think I found it somewhere on AAO.
If you want to put your pictures inside the spoiler boxes, they need to go between the brackets. So between the opening [spoiler=]and the finishing one [/].
[spoiler=]Like this.[/spoiIer]
The new character doesn't look too bad for a custom sprite. But you've used a lot of "pillow shading" on his suit (actually, reverse pillow shading, from the looks of it). Shading isn't just putting a lighter or darker color around the border. Body parts bend in different ways, so the light will hit them differently. Imagine a big light shining on him and how the shadows would be created as a result. Check some of the canon sprites, then compare the shading to Justin.

That looks much better with the suit's shading. Spriting is difficult to master (I'm far from it
). However always keep in mind that the official sprites were large drawn, anime style poses, downscaled to initially fit a GBA. So outlines are always more defined than you think. (Always make the exterior outlines a little darker than you think they should be. Including hair outlines, and head. Look at my first OC, and you'll see I've made the same mistake.)Also, never use pure black (Which is Hex #000000 or RBG, 0,0,0 the darkest I've seen any AA sprite go is RBG 6,6,6 so a dark grey is darkest.) RBG is the darkness of Red, Blue and Green. So 0,0,0 means no red, no blue, no green. White is the opposite, which is 255,255,255 or #ffffff in hexidecimal colours. (Not sure what colour system your editor uses.)

You don't need to ask permission, of course you can share it here, I don't mine.
And plus, we don't know if mines better or yours is better once we see it.

Edit: That gave me an idea!
I made this:
I combined your outer base of the courtroom with my judge's stand in it.
What do you think?

My Japanese isn't really that good but in this passage here:
And this phrase 「使われてなかったり」I think means "Couldn't be used". I don't know what that last part says fully, but then is says something about "Other places can be used... ".
Hopefully someone more fluent in Japanese can help us out...

The quote that you gave me said this:
"It will be the original of the character image or is used here sm14026003, you can not been used, or were used to Bessho"
Edit: I have a question:
Who or what is Bessho?
If anybody could help us, please, don't hesitate to replay.
So, the sm14026003 is just a video.

"Bessho" is just a misreading of probably "別の所"（べつのところ）Which means "Other place".
I don't trust Google Translate, I'm only going by the Japanese I know from study.
