So, there might be a reason for this. Due to the lengthy and troubled development of PLvsPW, the series's B Team (who made AAI) were put in charge of making Dual Destinies.

Right now, im still studying, but an acquaintance of mine told me that i should work as an attorney assistant in here, will you be so kind to accept me here? Raymond: Why, of course. It's kind of boring to be here all along by yourself. It's glad to see some new faces around here. Don't worry, your uncle Ray will teach you all he has learn for the past 24 years of working as a defense attorney. First, how to greed people: How about a hug?

"Miles you must finish this Uncle Ray didn't feel that angry for a long time " And uncle Ray become my favorite (I know that's not the right text but that's how I remember it )
SPOILER ALERT Danggggggg at first I thought he was a bad guy but then yeah some part of it is true since he's a defense attorney. But after that he seemed to be the coolest good guy around that even Edgeworth respected as well since he was his father's assistant.
Sebastian was the greatest in terms of character growth and development throughout the whole thing. and well, i didn't know who he was when i saw his picture on the game cover at that time lol.
I listen to this theme everytime I'm stressed out or anxious, and after listening to it feel like dancing on the streets, smiling widely and winking to ladies passing by. What a great song and what a cool character. Smart, ironic and loveable. I wish I could give him a hug.
At first, I thought that Raymond was going to be the typical rival who has a grudge against us for something, or is different (I assumed it because he is a lawyer) But as the cases progressed, I stopped seeing him that way, and I started thinking "This man would be a great partner for Nick."
