I don't know if this is the right place for this thread, but it's just something that I noticed when I was playing JFA. I decided to put it here after I didn't see it in the contradictions section of CR (though it isn't really a contradiction).

Lowdown:
So Edgeworth is something like Franny's adoptive brother, right? Gregory Edgeworth died when Miles was about nine, and he was then taken in by von Karma. Their profiles in the court record in JFA state that there is a seven year difference between Franziska's and Miles' ages. Franziska claims that she has always viewed Miles as her younger sibling, despite the fact that he's older.

Analysis:
If you take what she said literally, this means that Franny has treated Miles like a younger brother since she was two years old. She is a prodigy, and she is a von Karma, but is it possible for her to have the cognitive ability to mentally label Miles (who was, then, a complete stranger) as a sibling, or further, as a younger sibling, despite him being over three times her age and probably as many times her size? It might be understandable if Miles was closer to her age or if he had been adopted when Franny was older, but given the situation it seems unlikely.

Any thoughts?

Most two year olds are fairly pretentious at the best of times, given that Franziska was a child prodigy, I imagine it seemed more pronounced in her. Miles might have been introduced as a brother to her, and Franziska could have logically assumed that since he joined the family after she did, that made him her little brother.

wow, great analysis, but it's a little too speculative to be considered a real contradiction, but great find though

Yeah, but consider both and 's personalities here. They both don't take any crap, so I find it hard to believe that Edgy would let Franny walk over him like my older sister walks over me. (Seriously, to those who don't have one, an older sister is scary. I went to give her a high-five once and she punched me in the stomach)

I think the way Franny "walks over "Edgey is not something like fighting, but a winning on study or skills. Franny was premature mentally, after all, she couldn't act like what the other young babies did.

By the way, Edgey call Franny as his young sister as well, so may be they just don't want to lose in words, right? XD

The Von Karma mindset, case closed :)
