oh dang it’s open again-

just wanted to say that CHP5 was amazing! You and rexx absolutely killed it with the writing and art! And also ive been scared for life from the traitor reveal, and execution- /lh /j ANYWAYS HAYABRIAN SHIPPERS MAY HAVE WON BUT AT WHAT COST-

Thank you so much!! ^^ I'm very happy to hear how much you liked the chapter!

To cope, here are some memes I made for chapter 5

funfact the "how original" meme was actually the one I mentioned making around a year ago when I was working on chapter 4 that I said I couldn't share. I waited until now because I wanted to revel in the irony of it hehehaha

funfact 2 the "nice walk" meme was made all the way back in May 2022 I was sitting on that one for so long 😭

What if Monotora didn't shut down when he hit his head on the aquarium wall but was just pretending he shut down bc he was too embarrased that he missed and hit his head lol (that was my first thoughts when i read that part)

It was in actuality a mixture of being put out of commission temporarily and pretending not to be able to listen in to what everyone was saying before they got up. However, Monotora would feel more annoyance and anger than just embarrassment from being bested.

If something like that really did happen though, I assume things would've gone like this

directed at Kurumada specifically

If there's anything I've felt about ace attorney since playing through the original trilogy, it's how cheated I've felt about the fandom interpretation of it. Y'all were so caught up with your gay boys and your Miles Edgeworths I didn't realize how much of this game was about WOMEN. THE CORE OF ACE ATTORNEY IS IN ITS FEMALE CHARACTERS. From Mia jumpstarting Phoenix and guiding him throughout the whole trilogy even after her death, her presence being the primary connecter of Phoenix and Maya, Maya and Godot, heck even Dahlia and Iris and the whole lot of them. From Franziska's earnest faith and consolation of Miles Edgeworth, even begrudgingly, pulling him out the trauma of his childhood with the face to face confrontation of a bullet wound in the same spot as the man who killed his father. Lana and Ema dragging Phoenix back into the thing he does best. Lana and Ema who's tragic story lies in a pair of sisters ruined by the heinous law system and their unconditional love for each other. Dahlia and Iris with a different version of sisterly tragedy, struggling through generational trauma in separate settings and support systems. The matter of the Fey tradition looming over the entire narrative and all the legal and social terror that comes with it. CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE ACE ATTORNEY WOMEN.

Obviously it is upsetting that guy's boyfriend died but hayabrian gang wins (both of our guys aren't dead as opposed to the canonical doomed yaoi)

I’m going to be honest in the most gentle way possible……. I don’t think you guys won much 😭

Considering what happened during the end of the trial, Hayabrian has become worse than doomed yaoi: toxic yaoi (gasp sfx)

After all I don’t think Brian can score much from a broken man who’s still yearning and mourning for someone else (oh and also probably hates him)
