Dai Gyakuten Saiban 2

"Objection!"

Naruhodou Ryuutarou // Mikotoba Susato

...There is nothing as vexing as being born as a woman.

Haori: "I... didn't do it."

The agonies of death flying! The scarlet blood scattering! Souseki who releases a crab! The detective with a turtle on his head!

Souseki: "I am... Yes. The future great writer that will make a noise in the imperial capital... ! That man with! "Wagahai wa Neko de aru"! Serializing with great reviews! Natsume Souseki!"

That is because the <victim> of this incident is... "that person", perhaps.

Susato: "Ah. I (watashi)... No! I (boku)...... Yes! I (ore) am that Naruhodou!"

There was no <justice> in the news.

Judge: "...Today. What will be judged in this courtroom, is a very important case to our country."

Incident, immediately, in prison! Surely, I will be arrested!

The second incident that tormented me. That <Ghost in the Lodging> incident...

Naruhodou Ryuunosuke

...The first thing I sensed was "someone's gaze"... As if, someone was watching me constantly.

Naruhodou: "T... This is..."

This is what wakes me up in the following morning!! Is it not "the early bird gets the worm'!! An absolutely heavy loss!

Souseki: "Exactly! I am my tea are <innocent> and <harmless>!"
Gregson: "...On the contrary, not a chance."

A bath, a toilet, a fireplace, [iwakutsuki]. ...Somehow, it is deluxe, is it not!

Sherlock: "What happened in this room last night... First, let us <observe> the victim's body."

At this point, what comes to my mind... there is, only one.

van Zieks: "...It appears from that state of affairs, there didn't seem to be any abnormalities."

"She had a 'purpose' that we are not aware of..."
"There was 'something' perplexing if Susato were to remain in England."
"Henceforth I never stood at the prosecution bench ever again. ...Until you appeared in London, that is."
"You cannot turn this incident into a 'novel'... Absolutely not."
"...<Reaper>... huh. I'd like to see its 'true face' one day."
"There isn't a single person who knows of their face."
"...I'd like to fulfill that 'promise' now."
"If that was the moment of betrayal... It would mean to taste that hell-like bitterness once again..." (Alternate translation: "If that were to betray me..." Context is a jerk)
"I feel as if, the 'causality' of the past is being led in the imperial capital by those people."

Iris Watson

"World Fair"... "scientific experiment"... "accident"... and, "murder"

Dobinbough: "B-B-B-By any chance. I-I-I-Is it that! You'll be the defense for my theory!?"

That hand-made <identification> stings my eyes...

Gina: "...Yeah. People call me... 'Inspector Lestrade', after all!"

They did have a strange "connection" with the <Reaper>.

Shisu: "Our duty is to <inspect>. ...Not to produce a <conclusion>."

That is true... Something might have "changed" since meeting you.

van Zieks: "This <technology>, which no one has seen before until now, will become the point of contention."

The masses, they love stimulation. ...Even if it were slightly in bad taste.

Holmes: "...Could you open the <curtain> slightly and allow us to peer into it?"

Sherlock Holmes

...At any rate. Behind that defense attorney, is me, after all.

Gina: "It's an incident... Help me, Holmes!"

...People like defense attorneys... They're comrades of scoundrels who ally themselves with these scoundrels.

Gossip: "We saw it all. The moment those guys went into the apartment!"

It is precisely because I'm a foreigner, that I can see things. ...This is what I think.

Iris: "It would've been nice to call Greggy over too--"

Tomorrow's great court, will surely become a trial recorded in the law history of our country.

Vortex: "...The only one who sees the future of scientific investigation in this country, is me."

Barok van Zieks

------ The interlocked turnabouts, finally reach a grand truth ------

[Here's the part where they throw a lot of text at you in rapid pace, meaning I couldn't get all of the text boxes lol. Sorry]
???: "......"
van Zieks: "Why I... despise the Japanese. What do you think of that?"
Naruhodou: "That guy's 'true intention'... it was possibly something else."
Hosonaga: "Why on earth would she have killed Dr Watson...?"
Payne: "That female student stabbed for the sake of revenge. Every fact is screaming that."
Iris: "Alllright. Let's go, Nick Naruhodou-kun!"
[Aldamont]: "............Is that so? The person at the business office......"

Dai Gyakuten Saiban 2 -The Resolve of Naruhodou Ryuunosuke-

------ All of the <mysteries> will now be resolved ------

the culprit turns out to be Viridian Green. Don't know how since her circumstances appear to make it impossible for her to carry out the crime, although death by poison doesn't require the person to actually be there when the victim dies, and I don't think it has been established yet if Viridian was either going to or coming from the Garrideb Lodgings that night.

In any case, I feel like a turnabout might be pulled off, somehow?

Either way, Viridian seems important to this case. She even got official art in the trailer :v

I have never [before] felt such frustration as this at being born a woman. In other words, this is more a remark on her current plight than a general statement.
放る = "throw" more than "drop."
断末魔 is more like a death rattle than anything else. This line also needs a bit of magic to make it work in English. Perhaps consider "The death-cry slashed across the beach, and in its wake slashed blood. The crab I flung in fearful shock; the turtle-crown yet stood."
I cannot recommend enough translating the 目が泳ぐ bit more literally. You've turned a humorous moment into a very matter-of-fact one.
Similarly, while I really like your use journalism for 報道, "there was no justice in journalism" is more succinct, more quotable, and more accurate. Or maybe "The reporting spared no thought for justice"?
i really don't have a better idea for souseki's yoji stuff either besides FOUR SYLL-A-BLES but yeah >_>
iwakutuki: it's really just trying to say "how suggestive" here. The second half of this line should be "That seems plenty luxurious to me!" Perhaps a looser translation would do: "A bath, a toilet, and a fireplace? My word, it would seem that you abound in luxury."
この事件を小説に[...] sounds like Holmes speaking to Iris tbh.
jaaku is correct w.r.t. Iris's line.
2:19 is one idea--する is describing ワルモノ there. It reads to me like a rhetorical question, though without context/tone, it might be a simple statement.
I strongly feel that using "Oriental" instead of "Jap" is a mistake. We have nothing to suggest his antipathy spreads beyond Japan.

What if the masked man is Aosugi on his undercover mission? That would be brilliant and the jawline matches.
And is that Benedicts' Sis?

In the original story Holmes secretly monitored John as John was protecting the target/investigating the mystery.

And curiously, two of the mysteries in DGS that are as of yet unsolved involve this very story. Specifically, why Holmes asked Iris to not publish this specific story and how Susato knew of the story despite it being unpublished.

It would make a lot of sense for Holmes to refer to this specific incident given that this sequel is gearing up towards making this incident an important flashback story.

Asougi or his brother.

Why? Because the mask bears the Asougi family seal.




Pay attention to the watermark of the Asougi family seal to the right of the last image.

he might have faked his death,
as we never saw his body on the steamboat as Naruhodou

It's Asougi's father, since this guy has been vaguely referenced to in the first game if I recall correctly.
