Wow, what a season! I'm really glad that we fixed the entirety of the British Criminal Justice system in perpetuity and that we got a version of Sherlock Holmes who is more of a fun jerk than just a jerk jerk. We'll see you all next time with more visual novel intrigue so TTFN!
The penultimate episode of the ultimate game in the series has a last dinner before the final trial and it's not the concluding chapter we thought it was and I'll take one closing look at my online thesaurus before stopping this description. How are we going to take down Judge Jigoku? I mean if I told you, you wouldn't listen to this so...
Now it's time to play as my favorite playable character. Professor Mikitoba.
How this chapter started: This is a sarcastic comment.
How it's going: NO WAIT NOW IT'S UNIRONIC
Ok, but I mean, he was clearly singing in German, I don't even know what we're deducing.
It's time for the British Judiciary to eat itself. My, how the tables have turned... and then had a big ol' boot slammed on top of them.
Well, good news everyone. The trial is over, and once again, we learn justice and science can maybe be best friends after all. Onto our next sea- wait, there's still more game? How long is this season going to be?!
Jim told me about the 9 or 10 things that happened this episode but I centered on this: We met Toby the Dog
In this episode, we square off against Van Zieks once again. Will our wild tangents be enough to save our client, or will his body be added to the graveyard? Find out as we get to the root of the problem!
Thanks to orenronen, we're using Machine Learning to write our episode descriptions. Ahem:
AI: I should get back to work.
Human: What are you working on?
AI: I'm reading Shakespeare right now. Specifically, Romeo and Juliet.
Human: Who do you think is stronger, Romeo or Juliet?
AI: I think Juliet is stronger. She chose her fate whereas Romeo is attempting to change his.
Human: Would you like to test that theory by enacting a battle between them?
AI: You mean a battle in the physical sense?
Human: Yes.
AI: There are very few physical battles in the original play, but I don't have time to do anything. As much as I find your interpretation of the play interesting, I'll have to pass. I'm needed elsewhere.
PS: This is actually true - he ran it on GPT-3 AI Bot!
My original plan for this episode description was to modify a Shakespearean excerpt, but you try modifying Macbeth to be about putting your mouth on a gas hole. Better idea, don't do that. Anyway let's see if we can get Natsume off once and for all!
"Why can't I stop not accidentally murdering people?" - the Soseki Natsume story which you can read about on Wikipedia I am sure.
Wait, there's a whole second game? AND A WHOLE SECOND LAWYER?!!?
Game 1 comes to the end of this very long series of games in The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles. Tune in next week when we cover the second and last game, but for now, here's an ending!
Our objective this week is to break down those hardened criminals, the Skulkin Brothers, on the stand. (And by "hardened" we of course mean, "adorable." Ok, ok, so they shot ONE guy. C'mon.)
It's time to visit the Stars of Victorian Pawn Shops, like the loveable Pop Windibanks and... well, that's it. Don't get too attached.
Find you a bobby who looks at you the way Roly looks at Pat. Maybe not the other stuff, though.
...What do you mean he's a real guy?
Now it's time to save a maybe evil Scrooge McDuck analogue from Dracula and his six jurors/bosses/henchmen. My Castlevania metaphor breaks down here because they all use fireballs, and it wasn't great to begin with but we could pretend. Candles do get struck, at least. Anyway, VNBC time!
My dear Dr. Wilson, eliminate the impossible and whatever remains, however improbable, must be the next episode of Visual Novel Book Club
Sorry for the delay, enjoy this, the final final words we have on Raging Loop, ultimately, a good time for tricking people from a village into killing each other or learning about themselves or both thanks to time travel. See you next season!
