Synopsis:
Tagline: You lack insight, my friend.
The special train Phoenix and Maya have been invited on is taken over by a dangerous convicted criminal. In this time of crisis, the lawyer will have to work again with his old friend Miles Edgeworth. Perhaps the key to this case lies in the friendship between the two men and the past that unites them.
Intentions:
Experience a brand new take on the Ace Attorney anime, edited to adapt the the original tirlogy in separated movies. This edition features a new soundtrack, reworked visuals and several others surprises. The ultimate anime adaptation of the AA series !This project does not alter the story, but has the purpose to enhances it in many degrees.
This movie is a special episode to watch between Volume II: Justice For All and Volume III Part One : Trials And Tribulations. It serves as a transitional episode developing the characters a little more, with a focus on the growth of Miles Edgeworth and his friendship with Phoenix. I came up with the idea of mixing two story arcs from the anime series (Turnabout Melody and Northward, Turnabout Express) in order to use interesting leads from the anime and to explore its more slice-of-life aspect. So it's a sort of experimental bonus film that doesn't aim to adapt a story from the original video game.
Change List:
Overall new grading to give more depth to the colors.
