I can't believe none of you folks have posted this already on behalf of the lj peeps! ;)

croik's fantastic
Court Records... Sound clips for the upcoming Gyakuten Orchestra Concert have been
uploaded to the webpage!
Phoenix and Edgeworth (as played by
Takayuki Kondou <3 and
Eiji Takemoto)
http://www.capcom-fc.com/gyakusai_orchestra/mplayer/musicplayer1.swf Apollo and Klavier (as played by
KENN and
Toshiyuki Kusuda)
http://www.capcom-fc.com/gyakusai_orchestra/mplayer/musicplayer2.swf Apollo sings a little in his introduction, it's adorable. And Kusuda is such a perfect cast for Klavier, to say nothing of Kondou and Takemoto. The links above have a transcription in Japanese by japanese_girl, hopefully one of you bilingual folks will be able to give us a translation.
And for those of you unfamiliar with these fantastic voice actors, you can click on their names to take you to a detailed breakdown of their roles. I know that in his previous role as Oishi from tenipuri Kondou/Phoenix proved his worth as a singer (and also has a very nice ass). KENN/Odoroki is, in fact, a singer, performing in his band the NaB's, doing the opening theme for YuGiOh and other things. I've actually seen three of the four onstage in concert, and Kusuda is very much like Klavier when he sings, getting into it and dancing around. I'll let you click on their names for more info, but rest assured that if there is ever an animated production the voices of our favourite four attorneys are resting in very safe and attractive hands. <3
Additionally, judging is nearly done for the narumitsu and kyodoroki contests. I promise to have the results up within the week!
The CR forums have been under a bit of strain recently, so I asked to repost the marvellous croik's translation here:
P: Hello, this is Phoenix Wright.
M: This is prosecutor Miles Edgeworth... but I plan to stand before you all as a conductor.
P: That's not right! Um, Mr. Hirofumi Kurita, continuing from the previous concert, will once again be bringing us all a splendid investigation along with the members of the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra by skillfully swinging his baton.
M: Mr. Kurita's conducting was surperb, so it's no surprise. Let's look forward to hearing another magnificent musical performance.
P: If you would like to know about the tickets for the "Gyakuten Saiban Special Court 2008 Fall Orchestral Concert" that are about to go on sale, please check the information page.
M: I hope you will take the opportunity to attend. It wouldn't be so bad to spend time with us becomming intoxicated by an elegant performance.
P: I'm sincerely looking forward to meeting everyone here the blog at the event. See you September 23rd at the concert hall!
A: Ah, N! Nn! Mn mn mn... Ahhhh A B C D E F G! Objection! Hold it! Take that! That's not right. Take that!
K: Hey, Herr Forehead. Your Chords of Steel are great and all, but the mike is picking you up.
A: Ah! Um, sorry! But where did that mike come from? I didn't say anything bad, did I...?
K: Hello, all you millions of Gavinners fans around the world! Hello, this is Klavier Gavin.
A: Ah! No fair, Prosecutor Gavin! Hello everyone! This is Apollo Justice!
K: Well then, shall we introduce the main event of the orchestra concert, Herr Forehead?
A: This time there's going to be a new song performed, right Prosecutor Gavin? Don't worry! I'm totally prepared. Thank you all for your many votes! The new song that was chosen to be performed is...
K: You can look forward to hearing it not here, but on the day itself. Of course, the collaborative song of Shimotsuki and Iwadare will be announced as well.
A: That reminds me, I heard the new song will be added to concert goodies!
K: Oh? You're well informed. The special CD will have recordings of two songs: music box versions of "Phoenix Wright ~ Objection~" and "Blue Badger ~ I Want To Protect!" Tickets go on sale August 16th, so why not tell your friends who don't have theirs yet? I'm looking forward to seeing you all there.
A: I'm looking forward to being able to meet everyone, too! Let's all meet there!
