This works good as a game but would be even better as an anime. For one, we could get far more than 4-5 cases.

Episode 1 could consist of Phoenix's first case.
Episode 2-15 could consist of filler cases and filler investigations (each case/investigation should last at least two episodes).
Episode 16-25 could be the Turnabout Sisters arc( the case itself would be somewhat similar to yugio's big duels in that it could consist of 5 episodes at max.
Episode 26-35 could be more filler cases and investigations Their could also be filler villains introduced liked the Yakuza.
Episode 36-45 could be the Turnabout Samurai arc.
Episodes 46-59 could be more filler cases and investigations.
Episodes 60-75 could be the Turnabout Goodbye arc.

. . . and well, you get the picture.

The voice actors could be the same actors we see in TSG commercial and Maya could become Phoenix's love interest.

What do you think?

I don't really know if that would be that good of an idea in that kinda of set up. That usually works for the hardcore anime fans but for something like Phoenix Wright there would need to be less episodes and more content. Filler episodes are only used in very popular anime in order to milk more money off the series. Also the Phoenix Wright community isn't all that large so an anime that big would seem like a waste of time.

Screw filler episodes, but I wouldn't mind an animated adaptation of...Phoenix and Edgeworth standing in one spot for the entirety of the trial...

hmm, maybe this wouldn't work all that well.

I actually wouldn't mind having PW on TV. It would be a intresting thing to watch. Instead of cases never seen, mabye they should make comedy episodes.
Um, you know what, mabye not comedy.
Also I think there are tons of hardcore fans to make a anime.

Hey, if Death Note can be pulled off in animated form, so can Phoenix Wright. Besides, artistic direction can make it actually quite intense. Sure, if you position a camera right in the middle, never moving it, it'll be boring as hell- but with the proper angles and speed shots, it can be done well.

On the subject of the Phoenix Wright anime... I don't really have an opinion.

Not to mention that even if an anime were to get off the ground it would air in Japan, more likely exclusively, considering the fan base is headquartered there.

Also, part of the magic in Gyakuten Saiban is thinking critically yourself. With the animes it's done for you. I also fear that a 3 hour mystery would be shrunk to 30 minutes you're really getting a trade with the quality.

I like the idea of a PW anime, but it shouldn't have many filler cases. 1 or two at most per series. Also, the episodes should match the length of the cases itself, ie. Turnabout sisters should be a 4 episode story because it has 2 investigations and two court segments It could be like

1: The First Turnabout
2-5: Turnabout Sisters
6-9: Another case (See, Fillers don't have to be long or numerous ^_^)
10-15: Turnabout Samurai
16-19: Another case (Possibly)
20-25: Turnabout goodbyes.

As you can see, 25 episodes per season means a lot more content and quality than a 75 episode run. ^_^ And if this really took off, they could turn 'Rise from the ashes' into an anime movie. (Or two if they couldn't fit it all into one).

EDIT:
Also, responding to Woosters point, you wouldn't have to shink it much either (if at all). If all the eps were 30 minutes you'd get:

First Turnabout: 30 mins
Turnabout sisters: 2 hrs
Turnabout Samurai and Turnabout Goodbye's: 3 hrs

That's pretty much the running time for each case ^_^

I could see an anime working. Like each section of the game given one ep each. Like each trial day is given an ep, then each investigation day is given a day. While some events would likely need to be rearranged to work in a television format, I'm sure they coudl make it work.

And they could make liberal use of the first-person view you usually take during investigations for the dramatic effect, like during an intense part of the trial, or when Phoenix finds an important piece of evidence during the investigation.

Not to mention they could have Phoenix do a screw up during the trial every now and then to 1) keep people guessing so Phoenix isn't ALWAYS right, and 2) make it a little more obvious that Phoenix is reaching at certain points of the trial as he tries to find the right point of attack.

What about a fanmade anime? I didn't pay £25 (that's $50) for Anime Studio for no reason.

Get me a good artist and a few voice actors, it could happen Nick.

An anime would be awesome, but difficult to pull off... I can't see squeezing most of those cases into a 30 minute or less time slot.

However, it's important to remember that not all the action takes place in the courtroom. Phoenix spends a good chunk of time investigating as well. Now, how investigations and then the court scenes would fit into an anime, I'm not sure. It would definitely take a skilled director to make it work.

I'm gonna direct it Edgeworth
...If the world would be going according to my evil plan.

Seriously. I would love to. I could even make the animations. But I live here, where nothing like that can be done Larry And I'm only bloody 16.

But there are somethings that should be pointed out.
A Phoenix Wright Anime could be risky, because once you've played the game, you would see basically the same. Let's say, about 40 episodes could be done with the script of the three first games. But that wouldn't give the fans anything new and fresh like the scent of lemon, only the same amazing story we experienced in the games. So there are two things they could do:
1. Change the storyline to create new cases. Like they've done with FMA.
2. Keep the same storyline, same ending and create FILLERS.
Fillers. They are dangerous if not handled right. Fillers are invaded by less interesting characters who has no meaning to the storyline, they're only in a case and that's it.

Here's my thought...

Good things A Phoenix Wright Anime could need:

- They could at least create one or two new recurring character. A character who has connections to the main cast, probably in the past. No secret siblings or lovers, just maybe friends. And they must be interesting. No Mary Sues, for Godot's sake.
- Add the recurring characters and case 1-5 to the script. Case 1-5, is a typical filler case, because it has no word outside the case. Like, Redd White would call the Chief Prosecutor in case 1-2, and Lana would answer. Meekins could make an earlier appearence, for example.
- Create new perspectives. The anime would look cheap if only the typical perspectives in the games would be carried over. Presence of close-ups and defendants chair is priority. Look outside the box you know.
- Keep on track. Don't make it ridiculously fan-serviceish. Don't make Mia Fey boobs bounce. Also Edgeworth shouldn't be so celebriteish that fangirls would chase after him (in the anime, I mean.) No accidental boy boy kiss.
- Create very sad moments to the new cases. Serious, baby, serious.
- Like the game, try to make it international, so the setting could change when dubbing. Japanese festivals, girls wearing uber Japanesey school costumes... No, we're certainly not in LA.

Why is everyone assuming that they'd squeeze the cases together? :F Animes wouldn't be anime's without cliffhangers! Also, with just the original cases there'd be about 51 episodes at 30 minutes each- 25 hours would be a lot ^_^ Still, fillers would be needed, but not many, just 1-2 per series. That would make it 75 eps (38 ish hours)

If the anime wasn't canon, how would you all feel about it?

Cuz I was thinking, the manga isn't canon, is it? And it has brand-new cases and characters unrelated to the games. Perhaps the anime could do something similar. Each episode would be a new case with new characters (unless the episodes were split up to create cliffhangers and more time).

Yeah, it might be better to do mostly brand new cases rather than retell the games. Though I think some people wouldn't mind seeing some of the in-game cases animated. While you would know what'd happen, it'd be interesting to have it all in motion.

And you can't tell me that being able to see the Judge's antics wouldn't be stitches. Will Powers

The thing is, with more brand new cases you're more likely to get more duff ones. :F With one or two, you have more time to tweak and think through your cases :)

And yes, seeing the judge in action would be hilarious. Or maybe a bit at the end of the first series that explains who threw the confetti...

What I had in mind was, the anime would follow the games rather loosely. Cutting out certain elements, like having to go back and fourth between two locations so much (unless they make that an in-joke), and adding others, like introducing the Magatama earlier and making its rules more life-threatening to make it more "exciting" or something. Also, for "fillers" they could add in the manga cases. Strategically, of course, so it makes some sense story-wise.


And also, at least one movie/special each series that has a really confusing/difficult case with some sort of twist to it. The first one could probably be Rise from the Ashes, the second Case 2-4, etc.

My Phoenix Wright anime would be OVAs (like made-for-TV movies) that would encompass their own cases separate to the GS canon.

Well, of course you would have to change certain things, including the amount you go back and forth. The cases themselves wouldn't need that much tweaking to be honest. But on the additions, adding the psyche locks early wouldn't be a good idea to me because they would make the GS1 cases too easy. They weren't made for that addition.

And on the movies, yes that idea seems good. But as you can see, the cases themselves should about movie size :F Rise of the ashes has enough content to make two films (Which is why I would split the story into two films)

To be honest, I'd rather we had new cases instead of the manga ones, some of the ideas that the fans have come up with could be just as good as the official ones. But then again thats my opinion. I wonder if we (The Court Records members) could actually make a fanime together, it could be possible.

I'd love to see an anime personally, but only done right. I don't like hte manga really, the cases aren't nearly as good. I'd love for most of the series to be canon (Maybe a few episodes per case, with special cases like Farewell, My Turnabout etc spanning 10 or so episodes) and for some really good non-cannon cases.
Also, make a spinoff with Dr? Hotti as the main character... maybe another with Sal .

Ack Maybe not... they'd become hentai so fast it would be amazing!

I've never really cared for the "non-canonical" gripe, to be honest. You never really see that brought up in western comic books, for instance. People tend to accept that the movies, comic books, and television series exist in their own continuity.
Anyway, if it were done well, (with, say, more than four points of focus in courtroom scenes, and some of the more gamey elements sped up like investigations and repeating testimonies), then this could translate into a pretty good anime. Maybe find a way to mix it up in a way that has more than one thing happening at a time, for instance.

I think it could work if it wasn't too long. Lots of anime are dragged out until there's almost nothng left and I think that would ruin PW.
They could put in more episodes to explain the past relationships between the characters but only a few random fillers ^^"

I like my Phoenix Wright the way it is, though. For me, the game is already a comic book/manga/whatever. Only... uh... interactive. LIKE A GAME. DUH HUH HUH.

But I'd have no problems with an anime if it's handled well. Depending on who does it.

I wouldn't mind if Phoenix Wright became an anime. Maybe just an OAV. It would be nice to the cast move a lot more and in different angles, not just the standard front and side view from the game.

Phoenix Wright OVA's are a pretty good idea. Although, each one should be focused on the past of certain main character's: Phoenix, Edgeworth, Maya, Franziska etc.

I would love a PW anime. I think that there could be a case per three episodes at most. You wouldn't want to rush them, but they shouldn't be drawn out either. There would also probably be alot more PhoenixXMaya and such pointed out, for the sake of fans who need to have love interest in there ^_^

I personally would like an OVA or something of what it was like for Franzy and Edgey growing up in the Karma household. I felt that Franzy's character and past were underdeveloped in the game (and besides Franzy and Edgey's sibling relationship is adorable).

Seconded. Too much to be left for the imagination there. :/


I think an anime would be beyond great. I bet it would have dramatic music and frequent, crazy camera angle changes. Also, there's no reason why it would take away from the element of suprise the game has TOO much. It would be like watching a mystery movie, and you could still try to figure things out as the episode progressed.

And with it not being popular enough.. Maybe an anime could boost its popularity a little? I mean, I know some people who never read the Death Note manga or anything but really got into the anime. And it happens with a lot of other series, too.

Phoenix Wright with dramatic crazy angles and such would be AWESOME. Like how in Death Note they can make a scene with a guy writing names into a notebook into a total drama-fest complete with gothic church music and sparkles. Pwn.

As far as popularity goes, it's popular enough that the creators keep being told to make new games long after they didn't expect to churn any more out. Although, I've only heard of a limited number of games that turned into anime series, so I don't think it's all that likely. There IS the manga though, and an anime for PW is an awesome enough idea that it's a great thing to dream about no matter what the chances.
