One of the things that makes the Phoenix Wright games fun to play through more than once is trying to catch the smaller details and optional dialouges that will often go missed until they are pointed out. For instance, I would never have noticed that Manfred Von Karma has earrings had someone not said anything. Other fun little details include the expressiveness of Gumshoe's eyebrows, or the fact that
Spoiler: Ben's
lips move when Trilo is talking
also
Spoiler: minor 1-5 and 2-1
Maggey's picture in Gumshoe's locker.

The script has some nice touches as well! I really like the dialouges about the poster in Phoenix's office, particularly when Mia is with you, or
Spoiler: 1-2
How Redd White becomes incredibly less articulate when he's placed on the spot. also, as far as I can recall, he's the only person to call Edgeworth by his first name
or how Detective Gumshoe and Pearl are about on the same level intellectually, and thusly get along very well.
All of Angel Starr's lunches are pretty cool too. Is there a documentation of all the different ones you can find?
Anyway, post your favorite understated details too! It could be a good time.

The Difficult-looking Legal Books Standing in a Formidable Row Mocking Phoenix. (my personal favorite)
The way Dr. Grey makes that clutching action with his fist.
Adrian's infinite amount of glasses.
Redd White's cheesy business suit.
The way Dee Vasquez takes an infinite amount of smokes from her cigar.
The flipping-of-the-hand motion made by Winston.

And, this bit of dialogue:

Spoiler: 2-2
Morgan: Shall I show you to the scene of the crime, Detective Gymshoe?
Gumshoe: Um... my name isn't Gymshoe...

...*spoiler deleted?* is in Gumshoe's locker?
...
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW~
I've always tried to get a good look in that locker but I could never figure it out x.o

Hmm...I'm a big appreciater of the little things.
Can't name any off the top of my head though.
Too many to come up with a few to list.
I did love, though, how Maya and Phoenix have the same reaction to the TV in case 2-4. Such an adorable addition considering the scene.

Gumshoe does have expressive eyebrows (I didn't notice that until my sister watched me playing the game and told me while giggling :/)
I love the little things too, but I never normally notice them ;-;

Ahhh, good ol' Gumshoe's eyebrows XD
I notice a couple of the little things, sometimes I'm too focused on the text to look though ^^"

Floating down through these autumn leaves,

heart, for a moment, stops.
My eyes are empty, my face emotionless,
Because nothing can hurt me now.

They put LOADS of refs to the next two games in 1-5. Such as

*Edgeworth's jacket
*Maggey's picture
*The useless box that might come in handy some day (evidence room, to be used in 2-4)
*The new french restaurant

I'm sure there's more but I can't think of anymore refs.

Personally I love the way Adrian's fingers animate when she's twirling the card in 2-4.
fuck

Has anyone managed to read the Gordy article or the backs of the ID cards? There's definitely words printed there, but they're too blurry to make out.

Also,
Spoiler: 2-2
I really like how the Ini/Mimi dynamic is paralleled to Maya/Mia. The reunion at the end of that case is one of my favorite parts of the whole game.


The mouth on Ben's hat makes the same faces he does, which I thought was fun.

Or when Mia says this:
"Spagetti in a can. 'Best when slammed.' I guess they want you to drink it in one gulp...?"

Or,
Mia: "You have to help us fight for great justice, too."

Phoenix's hair looking extra spiky, exactly how he likes it in 1-3. XD

I forget what else, but I never noticed Maggie's picture in Gumshoe's locker.. It's in 2-1? When? o-o

I guess it's in 1-5, when Gumshoe's demonstrating the fingerprint locks so his locker opens briefly...?

The way certain characters shed tears get's to me.

For instance, Pshhh...'s blackened-probably-from-mascara-because-real-men-wear-makeup drippy tears.
And the way tears will actually drip down Chinami's cheeks when she blinks.
Not to mention:
Spoiler: JFA Case 4
Friska having to close her eyes to talk while crying and them twitchy shoulders :B


Crying people make me sob. Therefore, YEY SOBBING PARTIES!


@Hikarii: Maggey's picture is in the fifth case of the first game. You only get two chances to see it. Once in colour when you're with Gumshoe, albeit it flashes quickly. The second time in black and white when you're... talking about lockers ?_?
Though the latter let's you stare at the graininess as long as you want.

What?! o__o I didn't see all that stuff! Pffft. And my friend told me Phoenix Wright had no replay value.

*bricked* Anyway. I noticed both Gant and Jake Marshall have the same symbol on their clothing. Gant wears it on his chest, and Jake uses it as a pin for his poncho. I'm guessing it's the police's symbol, like the symbol on Phoenix's badge is the Courtroom's symbol. But I haven't seen anyone else on the force (...well, just Gumshoe) wear it. So the meaning of that thing bugs me.

Oh well. That's still a cool symbol. D<

I just love the little witty jokes here and there.
-When Oldbag's constantly babbling about Edgeworth and he has to put up with her, especially when she's the 'wicked witch of the witness stand'. "Please, make her stop, Your Honor... please..."
-"You said you would rather choose death? That is none of my concern... my task is to pull the truth from your still-breathing lips!" Whoa, Edgey.
-The little pop-culture references. I know I've seen a few... All Your Base, the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
-The way Gumshoe gets his feelings hurt so easily. He just needs a hug, pal.
-Mister Nick, Mister Nick? What's that about love? SMACK
There are more that I'm sure I'll think of later.

I love examining the stuff in Phoenix's office: Charley, the movie-poster-turned-Steel-Samurai-Poster, the formidable legal books, and the window to the ever-classier Gatewater hotel. The way that the descriptions evolve over time, and change depending on Phoenix's current case/circumstances... I love the attention to detail. The details are what makes it so easy to become immersed in the game.
