Ok, it is criminal that I didn't discover this fantastic series until the Game Grumps played it! I am absolutely horrified I didn't know this great series existed until that moment! I've played all the games (ok, I just need to finish Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright and the Great Ace Attorneys then I will have) and watched the anime! I love this! I highly recommend this series! It is really good! Not even kidding! 

Anyway.... Let's get back to the story at hand. 

1. If you really like Ace Attorney or haven't finished it yet but want to start on it, do NOT read this story. I am getting into spoiler territory for this story as well as foreshadowing a lot stuff. You need to play all the games, including Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright and Miles Investigations 1 and 2. I have yet to play all of the Professor Layton games, but I do know a few things, so yeah, you might want to know about that series as well. I am almost done with the first Great Ace Attorney, so there might be some small references to that as well, but nothing too big. If you do want to get into all of this stuff, here is a recommended YouTube channel. Seriously, support this person, they are doing amazing work!

2. How do ages work? So, the big thing in Ace Attorney is that there is a huge time gap (I won't say where), and certain characters didn't appear after the gap which I think is frustrating. There are a lot of characters that need to come back! Anyway, so how are ages going to work?

Kind of how like this official art of the cast when that game came out is. Though, Trucy will be younger than she looks here. I've done the math and will edit this if I've messed up or need to adjust something, but here are the ages for the characters I've done and will make an appearance.

3. Ok, I think that should be everything! I won't include music this time, because these chapters will get longer than normal. We are dealing with trials and investigations, so I want everything to be detailed and neat. I will alternate this with MegaMan Revolution Concerto.
