One thing I've quite enjoyed about GS4 is that they put Phoenix as Minuki's foster dad. When I first heard about it, I thought it was just some massive red herring, but having seen more of the game, I think it's one of the best things to happen in the series.

Spoiler:
First, it's just very unique. A main game character taking care of a child within the main story, as opposed to just in the epilogue? It's practially unheard of. Second, it's damn adorable. I've found plenty of art sites devoted to the two of them, and just about all the art out there is so touching. This site in particular, has a little comic of chibi Minuki cheering up Phoenix after he loses his job that breaks my heart.

And it raises my respect for Phoenix a lot. The guy's just lost his job, the one thing he truly loved, and yet he still finds it within himself to take care of a little girl he hardly knows. Considering his only real experience with kids amounts to having Pearl hang around occasionally, that must have taken a lot of guts.


Most of all, it gives the game something we hardly ever see in games, a sense of family. You see bits of it in the other PW games, but it really comes to the fore in GS4. In how many other games can you honestly say that the family members really, truly care for one another, or hell, that they even mention that they have family to care about? It's something which makes the character that musch more real to me. More plot driven fandoms need awesome familes.

Anyone care to chime in with their thoughts on Papa Nick?

I really enjoyed the interactions between Phoenix and Minuki--more in the game itself as opposed to the flashback, because the Mason System was really too abridged to really appreciate their first meeting. I think one of my favorite scenes with the two of them was at the beginning of 4-4 (as close as my memory will allow)

Quote:
Hobo: "Here you go, Minuki. Happy birthday!"

Minuki: "Papa it's not my birthday! :D"

Hobo: "Oh...well, what day is today?"

Odoroki: "Um...burnable trash day?"

Hobo: "Happy burnable trash day, Minuki."

Minuki: "Hooray! :D"

Odoroki: ".....O_o?"


It's just so cute <3

I agree as well from the same site here is two :phoenix: / :minuki: comics even though it's in a foreign language I got the basic premise.


GS4 Major Spoilers

Spoiler:
This comic takes place shortly after Nick loses his badge and just when he takes Minuki in one day he gets a call from Maya and Pearls and they both catch up on what's been happening in their lives. That's when Maya hears from Phoenix that his badge was revoked and he is no longer a lawyer to which Maya starts crying about the comic ends with Nick looking over at Minuki and it ending on a postive note. Here's the link to the comic.

http://753.tyanoyu.net/comic/c-voice1.htm


If only GS4 had more scenes like this but then again it would bring more attention to Phoenix then to Apollo and I don't see why Nick couldn't have a fourth game but then again that's Capcom for you.


There is nothing that spoils GS4 in this one so here you go.

Phoenix/Maya/Pearl is a much better patchwork family than Phoenix/Minuki. Seriously. Them and Edgeworth/Franziska are ADORABLE familial bonds, and it's one of the strongest points in the first three games, so I don't really know how you can say that >_>

I agree with Shion! That doujinshi touched my heart but it make me a bit sad too for Maya and Pearl.. as CantFaketheFunk said Nick/Maya/Pearl were the best and a better family too, after all he passed 3 game with Maya and 2 with Pearly! Ok they weren't him daughter but.. they're just as if they're him sis..

Spoiler: GS3 spoiler
I can't forget when in the 3° game Nick jump on the bridge to save Maya..


But I like the Nick/Minuki relation too! ^^

Seeing Nick as a Daddy is one of the things I'm looking forward to most in the game. From what I've read, the father and daughter relationship between them just seems adorable. Yay for family!

Umm..

In AJ is Phoenix sweet to Trucy, does he spoil her, does he be strict with her, does he treat her like she's not there, does he be very caring like the 'Don't talk to strangers!' kind of dad?

What is he like to her?

We don't know until we've played Apollo Justice but from what I can gather when I was playing GS4 is that Phoenix is just a normal father to her. Nothing more. I do believe that he believes in fairness so he only dishes out punishment in due course. But of course, he does use Minuki's/Trucy's ability for granted almost but Trucy/Minuki doesn't mind as she loves her father (foster father...wait a minute) and will do anything for him,

I had to bump this thread because I actually found a translation for the comic mentioned in the spoiler above!

I don't have the actual site (someone uploaded it as a ZIP file on another forum), so I'll just put these on TinyPic for you.

Since this was bumped, I feel like voicing my opinions on Trucy and Phoenix:

I like the interaction between Hobo and Trucy. It tends to be pretty interesting. However, I found it unrealistic that the Phoenix of AA1-3 would adopt an orphan in the first place. He seemed like more of the type to make sure she found a safe place to live, but not do it himself. I thought it'd have been a situation where Maya said, "NICK, take in this orphan" and Phoenix would think "why me?" It doesn't seem like him to do it on his own accord because he feels badly. Especially since she gave him the evidence that ruined his career.

Pearl was also left with nobody/nothing and he didn't take her in. He let her live in Kurain with a bunch of people that may or may not have cared about her (AA2-3 didn't really go into that). Maya didn't live with him, either, despite being a minor - she was old enough for it to maybe be a little creepy to move in with PW, but in AA1, there wasn't even any Kurain established, and she was more alone than Pearl was.

My argument in the above paragraph is a little shaky, I know. I just ...don't see Phoenix taking Trucy in without any prompting.

I loved the interaction between Trucy and Phoenix, it was so cute. Phoenix obviously thought he'd only be taking care of her for a while but that "while" just turned into 7 years.
