Apollo/Trucy: You've either never finished Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, or you're the type to dig in your heels and defend your past decisions no matter the moral implications
What are you talking about? Is there something at the end of the game that would makes you conflicted about shipping two characters that some really great chemistry over the game. I don’t remember anything. Nope. It never happened. Shut up. I’m not weird.
yeah, ace attorney’s probably the only series where I’m like the popular ships are _basically_ canon. still, my only ship is dahlia and a bat to the head
it's kind of interesting, cause actually NONE of the ace attorney ships are canon. but that means all of the ships are valid and are all _basically_ canon. ...well, except the weird kay/edgeworth type of ships, they're not valid and we don't talk about them
Phoenix Wright/Professor Layton: Either you think Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright is the best game after the trilogy, or you want to ship Wrightworth with none of the trauma.
You know, when I entered the fandom, I had NO intentions of shipping Phoenix and Miles. I thought it was just people mashing them together just cause they like rivals and/or enemies to lovers. But after actually experiencing the game I went "Oh wow! These bitches gay!" and now I have six fanfictions of them out in the world.
I had the exact same experience. I thought it was just “oh they’re rivals and people ship rivals together all the time” and then I played the game and got to Unnecessary Feelings and the entirety of Turnabout Goodbyes and was just like “oh these two are just actually in love with each other.” It’s SO obvious
Phoenix and edgeworth is such a good ship they cover so many troupes you want childhood friends to lovers gotcha enemies to lovers gotcha rivals to lovers hurt/comfort angst mutual pining hell yeah
can confirm it exists for a reason. im the person who wrote it. any excuse to plug; stan Narumitsu for clear skin archiveofourown.org/works/25002040/chapters/60539479
Honestly as someone who hasn't played the game, that's part of what appealed to me about it. Also, GameGrumps' playthrough where Dan and Arin managed to improve the story significantly by making the ship more explicit in their commentary (there was something adorable about how obvious they made Phoenix's pining XD)
@@helldog9402 it is very one-sided though. It’s clear Oldbag has a crush on him, but Edgeworth doesn’t. He refers to her as “the wicked witch of the witness stand” the first time he sees her in a year, and is clearly disinterested.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were attracted to each other, but mutually agreed their work puts them in positions where they aren't able to dedicate themselves fully to a relationship and this is how they compromised their time. I'm too devoted to narumitsu to see how people handle literally any other ship involving either Nick or Miles not with each other, but I can definitely see Miles and Shifu being *so* deeply committed to wanting to make a relationship perfect, they mutually agree they don't have time for anything more intimate than FWB.
I think that's part of the reason that so many fics have Gumshoe x Maggey as a background ship. Either from casual background mentions of them getting together or just spliced conversations in scenes here and there. It's very wholesome and they deserve it.

phoenix/larry: “dumb and dumber” describes most if not all of your favorite couples miles/larry: you believe in the inherent eroticism of annoyance phoenix/larry/miles: you just want good things for larry. that’s rare. also you believe in childhood friends to adult lovers supremacy.
Apollo/Klavier: You believe in the inherent circularity of history. If the original characters had romantic tension, why shouldn't their sucessors? Also, you are homosexual.
Am I the only one who low-key shipped Blackquill and Apollo. They only have one case together but at one point Blackquill straight-up invited Apollo to spend a night with him in his jail cell and I was like hol up-
Honestly same and now it's become one of my OTPs, I would love if the games explored their dynamic more. I feel like there's a lot of potential for sassy back and forth there.
Alternatives: Narumitsu/WrightWorth: You believe in keeping things “one digit away from becoming” canon. GumWorth: You ship Bert and Ernie. FranMaya: You LOVE the songs “Little Miss Perfect” and “Ordinary”. Honorable Mentions: Pheonix x Dahlia: You believe in the inherit eroticism of yanderes. Larry x Phoenix: You believe in the quote “He’s an idiot, but he’s my idiot.” Miles x Larry: It’s Larry and Phoenix but with more ptsd in the mix. Godot x Phoenix: You want WrightWorth but the defendant is a tsundere instead of the prosecutor and you see the inherit eroticism of selling your soul to a demon. Larry x Iris: You are heterosexual and you just want good things for Larry Butz, and that sentiment is *very* controversial. Mia x Phoenix: You love the Teacher x Student trope and/or you took the song album title “I fell in love with a ghost” too far.
Um, yeah... Apollo canonically dislikes Klavier. So does Ema. And as for my own shipping choices... Phoenix/Iris, Mia/Godot, Gumshoe/Maggey, Maya/Apollo, Metis/Aura, and Athena/Juniper. Maya/Apollo is my personal favorite, though it seems I'm the only one here... so sad. 😔
I liked this video before it even started playing. I’m a little surprised neither Pearl nor Trucy made it in. I guess the FBI open up clip was unavailable this time around
@@chillichan She's 18 by Spirit of Justice. Shocking, I know. Makes you realize how old you are when you pick the game up and realize even she's an adult now! Admittedly I still see her as a little sister.

Gumshoe x Maggy - who literally disappeared both later after the trilogy and AAI Phoenix x Iris - kinda...you know... and the most canon of all, Aura x Mentis which ended bad too and were still a favorite ship of mine
@@l.n.3372 Apollo does at one point suggest to Aura that Metis might have returned her feelings, but he also didn't really know Metis so he might have just said that to placate Aura.

I think I just let out a really loud, strained laughter at the Claypollo section at 12 in the morning before silently letting the realization set in that a one-use dead astronaut lives rent free in my head with no issue
So *that's* the appeal. You know, funny thing is, nowadays I'd probably ship them, as per the everything, but I wasn't that into yuri back when I played so I only think of them as enemies.
Franziska/Any female character: You saw how Edgeworth felt about Wright and thought “Hey, you know what’s better than one closeted gay prosecutor with daddy issues? Two closeted gay prosecutors with daddy issues”.
they are EXTREMELY underrated imo. And I dont even think they have a codependent relationship at all, I think Franziska has helped Adrian become more independent :D Lovely couple
I’m a wlw and I don’t ship mlm ships too often because I prefer to self project. I’ve only hardcore shipped two mlm ships and wrightworth is one of them. It’s so good I might just have to start reading fanfiction again.
Damn, no need to come for my weave. To be fair, they would get along if they interacted in canon. They might not date, but they could be friends potentially.
The same goes for Blackquill/Klavier, interestingly enough. There's one very good fic about them out there and while I am not necessarily shipping them for ever now, I do think they could make great friends.
0:32 phoenix and Kristoph: let’s be honest, you have some sort of trauma with manipulation and instead of getting therapy you imagine Phoenix handling it either way better or way worse than you
say what u want about apollo and clay but there absolutely NOTHING heterosexual about wearing your dead boyfriend's jacket, NOT PUTTING YOUR ARMS THROUGH THE SLEEVES, and taking a leave of absence to avenge their death. look me straight in the eyes and try to come up with a heterosexual explanation for that. i'd like to see you try.
Aiight, I'll bite. He loved him as a brother because of all that time Clay supported Apollo, even since they were children and Apollo was a scared little kid whose father figure had to leave in an orphanage. Who teached him the 'I'm fine' motto who guided him through all. They grew up together, stumbled together through life and in the end, managed to get into their dream careers, both of them trying to follow into the steps of a model figure. Then Apollo realizes the law is getting screwed, Phoenix is not what he thought he'd be and his boss betrays him. Then then he has a harrowing year with only three more cases that more than show him that law IS indeed getting screwed, had to confront his boss again for good and fights for a new system that in the end ultimately gets canceled or forgotten. So that was a horrible year but still your best friend looks like he's doing alright and his model figure seems very legit, so you can be happy for him! He's even going to space, his dream come true. And then Clay gets killed. The man he knew from his childhood, who was through thick and thin with him, all the way. Who was going to make his desire come true. Apollo then realizes the new lawyer who he was getting along great with was lying about something very important that maybe could yep him avenge his friend, but he couldn't confront that, even to the point of denying himself his gift so he could still try to work with her. The mofel figure of his brother is then the most likely culprit in the deed and by then Apollo can't bring himself to trust anyone. Not the law firm, not the law, nor other role models. He only wants one thing, and that's justice for Clay. Feeling more lonely than ever, he turns to the only source of comfort he has left, the only memento his friend left, which represented his dreams and his hopes since he was a little tyke. The jacket. He swears then to bring him justice even if it meant doing it alone, knowing also that he was a liability for the agency in that state, thus the leave of absence. Clay was the force that carried him to the end in those hellish weeks and that, ultimately, became a central point of the disappearance of the Dark Age of Law and that made Apollo grow and mature even more. Finally free of all his doubts, he could let Clay rest in his heat as he was going to trial one more time, with his mentor, now in all his former glory and in his side, to confront his friend's killer. They, all of them, succeed and in the end, watching that rocket fly, he knows his dear friend is now resting in peace, and that is his duty now to advance on his own dream as much as he can, for he who could not too. Fiu, that was a long ass essay I wrote there, thought I can agree that if it needs an explanation that long, you're probably on the right track xD
@stupid horse well then it would just be bad writing at that point since apollo already has a secret sibling. besides i highly doubt the writers would do that anyways considering clay's already dead.
See, I *can* think of an explanation for that, but??? Y'know what I'd much rather do? Plead the fifth and choose to live in a reality where it can be nothing less than gay af
MIA/LANA WAS REAL I DONT CARE WHAT YOU SAY, GAMES, IT WAS R E A L. they “respected each other” YEAH I BET THEY RESPECTED EACH OTHER ALL NIGHT LONG IN THEIR COLLEGE DORM ROOMS
Naruhodou/Susato: You are straight. There are no issues here. But you also probably shipped Sakura and Naruto before realizing that even Sasuke was a better competitor for the long run
Oh nonononono.... Theres like one ship in the original material that doesn't make me deeply uncomfortable, and it ends with on of them being CRUSHED TO DEATH by the other.
This, too, for Phoenix x Apollo: "You just wanted good things for Apollo, and even if that can be argued, you're DEFINETLY a firm believer in the inherit eroticism of Phoenix being a hobo"

i do think apollo justice is the best of the post trilogy games, but i'm offended you think that means i'm ride or die for anything but klapollo

Dhurke/Datz: You are a firm believer in the inherent eroticism of having a Right Hand Man
this is the best one all the others go home
FINALLY I FOUND ANOTHER DHURKE/DATZ SHIPPER
Alternatives:
Narumitsu/WrightWorth: You believe in keeping things “one digit away from becoming” canon.
GumWorth: You ship Bert and Ernie.
FranMaya: You LOVE the songs “Little Miss Perfect” and “Ordinary”.
Honorable Mentions:
Pheonix x Dahlia: You believe in the inherit eroticism of yanderes.
Larry x Phoenix: You believe in the quote “He’s an idiot, but he’s my idiot.”
Miles x Larry: It’s Larry and Phoenix but with more ptsd in the mix.
Godot x Phoenix: You want WrightWorth but the defendant is a tsundere instead of the prosecutor and you see the inherit eroticism of selling your soul to a demon.
Larry x Iris: You are heterosexual and you just want good things for Larry Butz, and that sentiment is *very* controversial.
Mia x Phoenix: You love the Teacher x Student trope and/or you took the song album title “I fell in love with a ghost” too far.
Larry is a good guy at heart damnit
Gumshoe x Larry/DickButz: you are a firm believer in the inherent erotism of having a funny ship name
What would Phoenix x Mia be?
AW SHIT WHY IS THE SECOND ONE SO ACCURATE FOR ME

Nick/Iris : a relationship that looks soft and fluffy but actually built on complex web of lies and deception BUT ACTUALLY soft and fluffy
Like Nick said, she really is the person he always thought she was.
Phoenix/Edgeworth: you just want the best things for Edgeworth (and really, who wouldn't?)
I don’t think I’ve ever been called out as hard as that Kriswright bit.
Lemme guess, you also ship Simon x Knightly?
i said this once and i’ll say it again-
klapollo: capcom hates you
Um, yeah... Apollo canonically dislikes Klavier. So does Ema. And as for my own shipping choices...
Phoenix/Iris, Mia/Godot, Gumshoe/Maggey, Maya/Apollo, Metis/Aura, and Athena/Juniper.
Maya/Apollo is my personal favorite, though it seems I'm the only one here... so sad. 😔
I just recently enter the fandom, and I living from the fanfictions and the animatics ❤

SAME.
Same!
CLAYPOLLO FTW
Lmaooo the only "canon" ships were
Mia x Godot - which ended with him in a coma, her dead and such.
Gumshoe x Maggy - who literally disappeared both later after the trilogy and AAI
Phoenix x Iris - kinda...you know...
and the most canon of all, Aura x Mentis which ended bad too and were still a favorite ship of mine
Aura x Metis might be one sided unrequited love tho. Since Aura wanted to be more but never confessed in time :(
I kinda agree with all these propositions. They are the most accurate out there.
@@l.n.3372 Apollo does at one point suggest to Aura that Metis might have returned her feelings, but he also didn't really know Metis so he might have just said that to placate Aura.
Having only played the first 3 games it infuriates me that so much of the original cast was forgotten about by Capcom
Apollo/Kristoph: (In some forms) This is the same joke as Pheonix/Iris but you're not a heterosexual.
Wait, damn, you're so right

"Your dream date is arguing about stepladders"

Love watching these with no idea who the characters are and doing backwards deductions to try and figure out their dynamic

I’m a wlw and I don’t ship mlm ships too often because I prefer to self project. I’ve only hardcore shipped two mlm ships and wrightworth is one of them. It’s so good I might just have to start reading fanfiction again.
Maya/Blackquill: You read that one really good fanfic with this pairing on AO3 once and you’ve never been able to stop thinking about it.
Wait, was the fic called A Match Made in Neo-Olde Tokyo? Because it made me go "yeah, I can see it." and had me lowkey shipping it too.
YEP!
Damn, no need to come for my weave.
To be fair, they would get along if they interacted in canon. They might not date, but they could be friends potentially.
Why must you call me out like this
The same goes for Blackquill/Klavier, interestingly enough. There's one very good fic about them out there and while I am not necessarily shipping them for ever now, I do think they could make great friends.
0:32 phoenix and Kristoph: let’s be honest, you have some sort of trauma with manipulation and instead of getting therapy you imagine Phoenix handling it either way better or way worse than you
say what u want about apollo and clay but there absolutely NOTHING heterosexual about wearing your dead boyfriend's jacket, NOT PUTTING YOUR ARMS THROUGH THE SLEEVES, and taking a leave of absence to avenge their death. look me straight in the eyes and try to come up with a heterosexual explanation for that. i'd like to see you try.
Aiight, I'll bite. He loved him as a brother because of all that time Clay supported Apollo, even since they were children and Apollo was a scared little kid whose father figure had to leave in an orphanage. Who teached him the 'I'm fine' motto who guided him through all. They grew up together, stumbled together through life and in the end, managed to get into their dream careers, both of them trying to follow into the steps of a model figure. Then Apollo realizes the law is getting screwed, Phoenix is not what he thought he'd be and his boss betrays him. Then then he has a harrowing year with only three more cases that more than show him that law IS indeed getting screwed, had to confront his boss again for good and fights for a new system that in the end ultimately gets canceled or forgotten. So that was a horrible year but still your best friend looks like he's doing alright and his model figure seems very legit, so you can be happy for him! He's even going to space, his dream come true. And then Clay gets killed. The man he knew from his childhood, who was through thick and thin with him, all the way. Who was going to make his desire come true. Apollo then realizes the new lawyer who he was getting along great with was lying about something very important that maybe could yep him avenge his friend, but he couldn't confront that, even to the point of denying himself his gift so he could still try to work with her. The mofel figure of his brother is then the most likely culprit in the deed and by then Apollo can't bring himself to trust anyone. Not the law firm, not the law, nor other role models. He only wants one thing, and that's justice for Clay. Feeling more lonely than ever, he turns to the only source of comfort he has left, the only memento his friend left, which represented his dreams and his hopes since he was a little tyke. The jacket. He swears then to bring him justice even if it meant doing it alone, knowing also that he was a liability for the agency in that state, thus the leave of absence. Clay was the force that carried him to the end in those hellish weeks and that, ultimately, became a central point of the disappearance of the Dark Age of Law and that made Apollo grow and mature even more. Finally free of all his doubts, he could let Clay rest in his heat as he was going to trial one more time, with his mentor, now in all his former glory and in his side, to confront his friend's killer. They, all of them, succeed and in the end, watching that rocket fly, he knows his dear friend is now resting in peace, and that is his duty now to advance on his own dream as much as he can, for he who could not too.
Fiu, that was a long ass essay I wrote there, thought I can agree that if it needs an explanation that long, you're probably on the right track xD
I-I can't
@stupid horse well then it would just be bad writing at that point since apollo already has a secret sibling. besides i highly doubt the writers would do that anyways considering clay's already dead.
See, I *can* think of an explanation for that, but??? Y'know what I'd much rather do?

Naruhodou/Susato: You are straight. There are no issues here.

Oh nonononono....
Theres like one ship in the original material that doesn't make me deeply uncomfortable, and it ends with on of them being CRUSHED TO DEATH by the other.
Beleg L. - No kidding. Eva ships are all deeply toxic in one way or another... I ship whole planet/therapy.
The moment Athena asks Apollo if he wants to hold her hand was the moment I became a Justicykes. Which is weird because I am also a massive mlm fan.
This, too, for Phoenix x Apollo:
"You just wanted good things for Apollo, and even if that can be argued, you're DEFINETLY a firm believer in the inherit eroticism of Phoenix being a hobo"
Manfred von Karma and Damon Gant. No I cannot defend my decisions
Ah, a man of culture as well
You are a firm believe in the inherent eroticism of villain/villain shipping.
You are a firm believer in the inherent eroticism of being a diabolical but extravagant person that ruined the lives of many people
You probably like the fact that Damon would probably call Manfred immature nicknames and Manfred would get flustered.
