Bittersweet Sweetness rambling, Gyakuten Saiban movie

Sep 08, 2012 00:26

Hahaha, I'm quite happy I managed to make people laugh with Part 27 of Bittersweet Sweetness! Reactions all seem to be LOL'ing. Success! XD I've been hinting at this (I wonder if anyone guessed), but I'm thinking probably not very many guessed the particulars. Currently, I'm telling myself if I finish Bittersweet, then I can join new writing communities like
cottoncandy_bingo. Otherwise, I must stay away. Be good. Finish WIPs!! The problem with Bittersweet though, to me at least, is that I've always felt it lacked momentum. There also isn't much of a climax. (...if there is one, this would be it, and it's... hahahaha). Currently hoping to update Invincible next.

Watched the Gyakuten Saiban live action movie with my parents! \o\ I thought I wouldn't like Saitou Takumi as Mitsurugi (I didn't think he fit Edgeworth's image), but he was pretty cool after all. Narimiya Hiroki was quite cute as Naruhodou! I thought the movie worked pretty well as a mystery (that, and I've forgotten the details of the cases, so I was still kept in suspense, hahaha. Also, a few details are different.). Now my parents finally know what the games are about and what the character I cosplayed as (Maya) is like. My dad was asking me when she wears her waitress outfit. (Not in this movie, since that wasn't part of the first game!) :3

I was afraid this would be cheesy, and it was at some points. Lots of ridiculous hairstyles too, and overreactions. XD;; Channeling was fairly eerie but not overdone (Mia didn't keep showing up out of nowhere). Mitsurugi didn't get to do much prosecuting before the movie jumped straight into the last case, but I thought it was a necessary sacrifice since the last case of the game is the most interesting case, and it makes the most sense to just focus on that for a movie. The movie did manage to introduce all the key characters. (Larry/Yahari got to do quite a lot!) They were all really cute as kids (their hairstyles made me laugh).

The objection/hold it/etc desk slamming and finger pointing was hilarious in this rendition. There were actually holograms floating in the air showing the evidence to everyone, and Naruhodou would slam his desk, making the hologram of some piece of evidence fly out, and then he'd throw that at the people, hahahaha. The rulings felt so quick in the movie. The judge sure decides quickly...

I got a good laugh from the movie. XD;; Pretty good adaptation of the video game! (They actually made interrogating a parrot work!)

Can I have Ace Attorney 5 now? XD; (I will miss Apollo though. ;___;) I really hope Apollo is in AA5! And Klavier... I haven't a clue where AA5 will lead, since Phoenix was such a collected person in AA4... no longer a newbie...

I changed my header image! Wanted something with better scan quality. I cleaned up and pieced together my scans of this epic No Hero poster I have. So now my header features the four heroes from No Hero by Yu Wo~. I just love how epic the scene looks. :D we'll see how long this header satisfies me
