I think that's best. I did comment this idea before, I just said they'd 4Kids it. (IE, Keep it in Japan, westernise the names etc. Just don't censor everything like the real 4Kids :basil: )

But aren't Phoenix Wright and his friends supposed to be Japanese? Granted, they look pretty white in-game but I'm assuming that since Gyakuten Saiban takes place in Japan, the characters would reflect that.

I was under the impression they were Japanese in the Original games, but American in the localised versions. They could very well be Japanese people living in America, but iI think it was stated in game it's set in California, and the police are the LAPD.

Geez, the more that I think about it, the more I've realized that Capcom pulled an Atlus like with their localization of the original Persona for PSX. Changing the names and races of characters. :payne:

It's only excusable because the translated writing itself is actually pretty good. Maybe someone should make a fan translation patch that restores the script closer to the original Japanese.

Well, if the localizers want to have Phoenix...

!) ...be Japanese, then they can either retcon the setting to be in Japan (not a good idea in my opinion) or explain that he originally was from Japan but immigrated to America later (or something like that).

2) ...be American, then they can either claim the localized setting of this game to still be in America (very unlikely they will do this, considering the whole Meiji period thing they have going here) or explain that Phoenix's ancestor is an American visiting Japan (or something like that).

3) ...be someone with Japanese ancestry but raised in America for his whole life, then they can handwave it so Phoenix's Japanese ancestor would mention his plan to emigrate to America later (or something like that).

Either way, I need more details about the characters and setting first (who doesn't, really?) before I can see if the localization can make it work.

Actually, I don't think it was ever confirmed that they were in LA, specifically. It is set in California, but the legitimate name of the city they live in is "Blessing Springs", according to a piece of evidence from AJ. It was brought up in one thread in the Defendant's Lobby... I have no idea where the Japanese city is located, though.

It's true, however, that Phoenix knows at least some Japanese. He was able to make out a bit from the Kurain Village folding screen.

Blessing Springs? I never noticed that! (Reference to Springfield?)
EDIT: I looked at the thread, and wow, they did say "Blessing Springs, CA" so I guess they've treated it as being at least in California.

As I said before, there is a Japanese-influenced area in Los Angeles called Little Tokyo, founded mostly by Japanese immigrants. It wouldn't exactly be a stretch to imagine that such a place would have an equivalent in the AA universe, and it would be a very convenient way to connect the obviously Japanese atmosphere in this game to the westernized setting the English versions of the game have cemented themselves into.

To clarify, just because the address states Blessing Springs doesn't necessarily mean that's the city where the game takes place. It could be the name of the neighborhood and/or town where Vera Misham and her father's house is located, or where certain crimes took place, but not necessarily the setting for the whole series.


EDIT: Actually, now that I think about it, the bit about Phoenix knowing some Japanese fits well with the Little Tokyo idea. Having Japanese immigrant ancestors and growing up in or around such an area would likely give him some influence in learning some of the language, if at least the basics.

Since the "Blessing Springs" on the letter is followed directly by "CA" and a zip code, I doubt it's a district or neighborhood. It'd usually be written on a different line if so, or at least before the city name. Besides, I don't think Nick walked several hours to another town to interview them. Even by bus, 2 hours gets you from one side of LA to another (especially since Little Tokyo is located in central LA). Lastly, Vera was taken to the local detention center, and while this city could have more than one local detention center, it still wouldn't make sense if she was from another town.

If the localizing team is going to let Phoenix's ancestor live in Japan for a while, there's little doubt as to where Phoenix could have learned some Japanese, in any case.

It's Blackquill's Ancestor, except instead of being an English guy with a major weaboo obsession, he's a Japanese guy who is in love with England, particularly Sherlock Holmes novels. The hat almost looks like Holmes' Deerhunter as well.

Well possible, considering Meiji was the time Japan tried to emulate Western countries the most in pretty much everything.

(I always get a knee jerk reaction whenever I see a Holmes with deerstalker hat though, even if he wore it on in the original illustrations. He wasn't a just-this-hat person in the books!)

Anyone else wondering if this is going to be one of those prequels where it leads into the present in the newest game? Like with the new X-men movie, or if anyone plays Kingdom Hearts, Birth By Sleep? Like some new important plot details are revealed here, and then they are key elements in AA6?

I can't really think of that many plot elements that would last so long to tie in with such a distant future. Unless there's like some legendary law/spiritual artefact.

In the latter case I imagine Maya would be heavily involved but I doubt it'll tie in to AA6 since they claim this is going to start it's own series. :ron:

The answer is no. Takumi is writing one game and Yamazaki's team is writing another. They are separate and having nothing to do with each other. Also recall when the sequels would rarely talk about their predecessors. There's just no way this could happen.

I guess you could call it a "spinoff series". It sounds like Takumi is thinking about making a sequel eventually. He said something along the lines of "it's not a spinoff, exactly". But don't quote me on this, it's just speculation.

That would be a good way to bring Maya back, since a lot of fans want her back, and they've said that they didn't want to bring her back unless they had a good reason.

Even if there was not the issue of two teams the main problem is the Meiji era ended in 1912 and we know for a fact that case 4 of the first game took place in 2016 since it took place 15 years after an event that happened in December 2001. While anything is possible I doubt that that GS6 will deal with any century old secret.

Sure, but doesn't mean they will completely ignore each other. The main series and investigations games have referenced each other. Maybe this time they want to do something different to shake things up? Could be a good way to get both of them together. Maybe sharing some plot details. After all, DD was big on referencing AJ.

The answer is no. Takumi is writing one game and Yamazaki's team is writing another. They are separate and having nothing to do with each other. Also recall when the sequels would rarely talk about their predecessors. There's just no way this could happen.

I believe this isn't AA6, it's a spinoff game of sorts....

I guess you could call it a "spinoff series". It sounds like Takumi is thinking about making a sequel eventually. He said something along the lines of "it's not a spinoff, exactly". But don't quote me on this, it's just speculation.

Even if there was not the issue of two teams the main problem is the Meiji era ended in 1912 and we know for a fact that case 4 of the first game took place in 2016 since it took place 15 years after an event that happened in December 2001. While anything is possible I doubt that that GS6 will deal with any century old secret.

It sounds interesting, and not completely outside of the realm of AA. Especially if the Fey Clan is involved.

Out of curiosity, wasn't this trailer's info roughly the same amount we were given when GS5 was first properly teased (Excluding the Phoenix-less Logo) We got Nick, Athena, and a setting for the story. (Or did they announce the Mood matrix at that stage as well?) Hopefully this game will have some more info/footage soon! Please announce this at E3 for the west! (If it's not too early, it'd be a great time to.)

Yeah they announced the mood matrix and the premise for one case. We don't have as much info, but we have got 2 characters, a setting, and a connection to present day AA.

The first AA5 trailer showed (more or less) the ingame graphics, the mood matrix, a minor character and also a more detailed setting for the first case.
The first DGS trailer shows official art of the two main characters and the court room.

I am pretty sure we'll see a proper trailer during the TGS.

From Takumi's interview in Famitsu I also got the impression that he hasn't really written much of the actual script yet, since he stated something like "I barely even know these new characters yet, myself." when he was asked about the new assistant.

I probably said this before, But I really, really love Kazuya Nuri's artwork. I'm so happy he's still the lead artist for Takumi's games, and the new assistant's design is really growing on me :)

I agree, at first I thought the new assistant looked a bit weird, but I really am starting to like her.

That and I realized Naru's armband's symbol is the same on Phoenix's badge.

It's much closer to GK1, I think. The trailer from then pretty much just showed off the concept and a tease of Kay at the end, with some very early-dev screens and locations briefly seen.

Incidentally, GK1 was also announced in Famitsu in the spring after being known under a codename. So if we're following that pattern, we'd expect to see a real look at DGS at TGS.

Did anyone else notice the silhouettes at the end of the trailer? The one on the left is Ryuunosuke, but the one on the right is upside down, and doesn't look like our lovely assistant either...

I had a look at the silhouette close up, and tried to outline it:
It's a bit of a stretch, but I noticed in one frame it looked kind of like he had a pipe in his mouth, so I'm calling it, this guys smokes a pipe!

(The silhouette has bits added in by me to complete it. i.e: the nose, back of head.)


I'm looking forward to know who will be the new prosecutor. :will:

I still don't see why they can't just settle with American characters in a Japanese setting. Commodore Matthew Perry's series of visits to Japan led the country into free trade with the US under the (in)famous Open Door Policy and essentially transformed the very echelons of Japanese society.

Wow, could this localisation BE any more adequate?
Also, what do you think the localised version of Ryuunosuke's name would be? I'm going to have to go with Roc Wright, because IMHO that's the best-sounding (and the most English-sounding) choice for a legendary bird-themed name, at least among those names of legendary birds I'm already acquainted with (yes, I've done some research :gregory: ).

It doesn't have to be a bird, as much as I see him as one. Some of us have suggested "Phoebus", given how similar it is to "Phoenix", but it doesn't have that much of a ring to it... not to mention, it's another name for Apollo.

It's difficult pulling off a reference if we stick with a "normal-sounding" name anyway (unless it's something like "Jesus"). Heck, even Japanese names are fine, since the last name "Wright" will still be kept. It'll just prove that Phoenix is Japanese American. I wouldn't mind if they just shorten it to Ryu or change it to Takumi or something.

But if we are going to stick with an American name, I guess "Matthew Wright" would be suitable enough. (But I'd prefer "Jesus Wright" any day just so we can say "Jesus! Get it right already!")
