Watch him be the nicest guy around. Game actually ends with him and phoenix toasting a beer.

Or he'll be the "knows he's innocent" types and be more relaxed like Godot. Honestly I assume we're going to have to eventually prove the murder he "committed" was in fact not his fault.
Apollo did it. I'd also love another bait and switch where we are starting to prove him innocent and he either confesses to you or some other key piece falls into place but some dilemma is stopping you from shutting the book on him.
I feel as though five is the perfect length. Believe it or not, I think that AA games can overstay their welcome if they were to be longer than they currently are. AAI as an example; can you imagine if there was another case on top of the slogfest that was Turnabout Ablaze?
Well I know 5 is a good number, but man, I hate it when I get near the end.
And yea, that case was just crazy. It just dragged and dragged and dragged. I liked the fact that it wasn't over when you got the girl arrested, but boy did that take long.

Nah, there's nothing about his guilt or innocence, just that he's serving a sentence for murder.
Still no scans; 2ch is in the same boat as us, complete with "Jin = Godot" speculation.
EDIT: Scratch that, scans are up. Jin confirmed as the rival prosecutor. He also matches the silhouette.
Other notes: his accompanying quote is "To cut a man down in court... one must use a blade named 'evidence'", and he has a hawk on one shoulder and a feather in his mouth, as well as handcuffs.
The scan's cut off, but it says something about Apollo in case 2. Possibly that he's playable?
It's kinda based off scans for now though right?

News based on scans is posted all the time. You just can't post the scans themselves.

Saw the scan.
Betting Phoenix will try to cross examine the hawk lol.

I like the new guy's design.

I like the new prosecutors design as well, guess he'll do a double finger point
Yup. Hopefully it'll appear at E3, but it is a little concerning.

That's what I thought too. I was expecting PLvsAA to take the place of the yearly Layton game. (October)
I don't know what Level5 is doing...
lmao
tbh, i really enjoyed that last case until that happened
AAI is supremely underrated

Wow I really dislike the design. One of the worst in the series. Not the worst but it's a contender.

I'm not quite sold on whatever is going on with the hair but the rest of the design seems okay.

Yeah, same here. The last case would've been one of the greats had the villain not worn out their welcome.
Also, AAI is awesome. It's still probably my second-least-favourite in the series; but considering this is one of my most beloved franchises, that's not saying much. People give it too much crap, IMO.

AAI is okay, I like it but it lacks that extra something, not just the overall plot being a bit weak but the writing, the twists and turns, it never really reaches the level other games in the series did.
Edgeworth isn't snarky enough in the leading role, meanwhile I felt that Gumshoe gets made to be a bit too bumbling.
It has a top notch soundtrack though that's up there with the original, amazing cornered theme.

PL6 was announced for release in 2014 for US market, so there is clearly a gap where Layton vs AA could fit in for the annual fall Layton game.
More info on AA5 from Famitsu:
Case 2s title is difficult to translate, but it could be read as Turnabout Monsters Parade or something to that effect - the term used is 百鬼夜行, a term referring to groups of monsters or spirits proceeding through the night in a procession. The case features a Steel Samurai-like hero wearing a foxs mask.
The case involves Apollo and Kokone investigating a kitsunes forest filled with ghosts (presumably all this is a movie or theme park), and Apollo is also playable in court, where Jin Yugami acts as prosecutor.
At one point, Apollo is mistaken for a ghost himself because of his hair!

I should have been more precise. PL6 will be released this year in Europe.
Sounds good. So basically we'll have two protagonists. Or maybe Phoenix will only be playable in the first case?
Crazy talk.
What.
