- Here's the first episode in our Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney Playthrough with an actual lawyer! We have a professional voice actor and our real lawyer to playthrough the game and show us just how realistic is the court system depicted in Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney. In this episode, we cover the introduction case and realize pretty quickly that there are a lot of things that don't exactly line up with the US court system 😅.
We are planning to record the show live on Wednesdays at 6:00 pm EST, so feel free to watch us play and interact with us in the chat on our twitch at: / savedatateam

Define "a little bit"
@Mgamerz maybe like a couple episodes, we’re still working it out.
@@Mgamerz Ace Attorney's not the most popular game series. I give it a month... two tops.
"Stop him from answering"
Phoenix: *COMMIT PERJURY NOW*
i LOVE how literally everyone gives Payne the exact same voice lmao
Its 90% nasal, 10 percent bitch
He has an extremely memorable personality, and also extremely memorable Objection voiceline.
it's always whiny. no matter WHICH payne even
It's basically his cannon voice now
“Wait can you present your badge, just for no reason?”
Oh, you have no idea.
*RTGame has entered the chat*
@@JazonRicker *Objection! I am a lawyer!*
*And this Badge proves it!*
@@narrahian9713 oh well then your client is not guilty then!
"Maya, I have something that proves that Mia was a good person, and that proof is....is that I'm a lawyer!"
From gamegrumps: arin (in best baby voice he can do): *"did u know i am an attorney? here is ma badge!"*
Finally, someone does a full playthrough with a real lawyer instead of just the first case!
For what it's worth, Student of Games also has a playthrough of the first trilogy, Apollo Justice, and currently working on Investigations 1. He'll probably be switching to The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles when it comes out, just to get him the zeitgeist.
Oh rly? Can you point me there?
Nick Rekeita and Uncivil Law also did playthroughs
@@armannschelander2725 Rekeita did a playthrough? I was only able to find a single video. Though I suppose that's understandable.
@@andreassmed2255 Yeah he did the first four episodes. th-cam.com/play/PLSDjtaXm3l6PQjrR-VKkGDcBefatbngyA.html
In Japan, Attorneys do have a badge that looks like the one in game. That’s what it’s based on
Someone tipped us off to to that I think we talked about it in the most recent episode, but yeah it's kind of a cool piece of trivia!
The localization of the game (the English one) has the setting in the USA. However, since the games are made in Japan, it is therefore it is based (mostly, I think) on the Japanese justice system, not the American one.
If I recall correctly, the Japanese justice system is different to the American one. Also note that the first game came out in 2001. Anything could have changed in the Japanese justice system during the later years.
The English version of Ace Attorney is set in the USA but is using the Japanese justice system as a basis. Weird yes but that is essentially what it is

"How?"
"BECAUSE I AM A LAWYER"
Sahwit: You lawyers are all slime!
Zak: Prij, is this true?
Prij, in full confidence: Yes
Sounds like redditors
They all know they are trash and admit to it
@@dustin202as a redditor I can confirm, we are all pieces of shit

*Slaps roof of AA courthouse* This bad boy can fit so much perjury
“Lawyers are just slime!”
“Is this true?”
I’m dying
"Yes."
They were all laughing and immediately stopped when the gavel fell lol it felt like they all instinctively shut up.
you don't fuck with the gavel
It probably was for prij
The judge did say order in the court
Prij: explaining the process of authenticating and confirming chain of custody with every piece of evidence
Me: waiting for the updated autopsy report
😏😏
"That autopsy is outdated, Your Honor."
no matter how much you coach the witness/client....YOU CAN NEVER, EVER, EVER PREPARE FOR LARRY BUTZ.
*cough* turnabout *cough* goodbyes *cough*
I came for the real lawyer playthrough,
I will stay for that guy's AWESOME voice acting.
Haha, thank you so much! Wes is killer! 😅
@Mathcoolb *Slams hands on desk* HOLD IT! He confessed! Wes did it!
@@scaleythedino49 OBJECTION! If we take a look at the context, it becomes clear that this was not a confession at all! It wasn’t even related to the murder whatsoever!
@@scaleythedino49 Objection! If taken the message into context, they are noting on how Mr. Wes' voice acting is "killer" not in the traditional sense of having committing the crime of taking another's life, but in the sense of a compliment. However, I discipline Mr. "Save Data", for wording it that way. Despite, you have no evidence to back your claim or explain this accusation, let alone given a detail explainantion for your claim only simply stating you thought he was the murderer. Mr. Scaley, I ask you to step down from accusing my client please.
@@Gregory.Edgeworth My apologies sir
Can we just appreciate how the same judge who doesn't know what a cell phone is understands what a taped program is?
When they said "wireless phone" I thought they were talking about the phones where the handset was wireless while the transmitter is connected to the landline.
I have a few at my house which still need to be plugged into a wall to charge the handset, but I think it will still transmit using the landline's power.
Keep in mind taped programs existed many years before cell phones became common. They technically existed a ways before, but very late 90s-early 2000s they weren't super common, wheras recordable VHS tapes were pretty common as early as the early 80s.
Magnetic Tape recording was a thing in the 1950's, and Betamax and VHS first became a popular thing in the 70's. OG Ace Attorney is set in the early 2000's when flip phones were taking off, so it's not actually that unreasonable that someone as old as the Judge hasn't taken note of the phenomena of cell phones--they'd be more used to pagers/beepers by that point.
Recording a show was a thing well before cell phones though
@@GoldieTamamotechnically it takes place in 2016! The only known full date in the series is December 28, 2001, and the last case of the game ends exactly 15 years after that.
"Can confirm- murder is a serious charge" oh I'm going to love this
I love how Wes doesn't just do the voices but acts the whole character, hand movements and other gestures and all x)
He commits like a pro! 😅
That's op voice acting
Me too! I like doing those sorts of things myself when playing videogames with readable dialogue!
@@SaveDataTeam commits *CRIMES* like a pro?!?!
It helps me get into character when I do it 😂
I will literally die to see their reactions seeing the prosecution intimidate the judge and control the whole case.
You mean Prosecutor Von Karma?
They are gonna pop a blood vessel lmao
@@prometheanrebel3838 If they get far enough, they could even get to Franziska
@@youraveragegamer8832 who alsp tampering with the witness and hiding vital piece of evidence
Phoenix Wright is the Indiana Jones of defense attorneys - he gets beat and beat and beat until suddenly he wins.
*cough* farewell my turnabout *cough*
Also he probably makes the job look much more fun then it actually is...
and everyone hates him for it?
41:47 The weird thing is that in the 3rd game they say that they do in fact go to a trial after you expose them, and the prosecutions just takes all of your arguments and uses them lmao, usually with a confession
As another said, Ace attorney is a parody of Japan justice system, in Ace Attorney world this went to the extreme were if you can't say another person did it your client won't go free
"can confirm, murder is a serious charge" -Prij 2020
yes i would expect so 😅
You know you have a quality lawyer when he can casually quote Gurren Lagann
I love how every playthrough I have seen on this game, _everyone_ without hesitation showed Larry their badge
"I'm a lawyer, Larry. And this badge proves it."
ðe correct option is ðe murder weapon
3:10
I can see that the fact that Phoenix first case was a murder trial was quite the shock to Prij
"Why would the clock be running three hours slow on the day of the murder?"
"BECAUSE I AM A LAWYER"
“Wait, did I just cross-examine the prosecutor?”
33:42 Wes: "You see, when I found the body.. There was a voice saying the time... It was probably coming from the television.
-"But there was a black out starting from noon, so.."
Wes: "AaaAH! But let me finish!" *waves pointed finger and continues to read the text* / I loved this part!
22:17 - "NO DON'T COMMIT PERJURY!"
Oh, he has no idea the amount of perjury that's going to go on in this series.
and yet anyway
As someone who also works in the legal field (not an attorney though) and loves these games, I'm always so happy to find a "Real Lawyer Plays AA" series where everyone has a sense of humor about it. The voice acting and improvs are stellar as well!
Real lawyers reacting to Ace Attorney seems like a trend on TH-cam! Though, I've noticed some missed opportunities in this video, like how the prosecutor just calls the defendant to the stand, despite Larry's constitutional right against self-incrimination. Then again, this IS Japamerica after all.
I mean, somehow the right exists and doesn't at the same time?
I mean, game 2 last case, but also this,
I mean,
I mean,
I believe you mean the beautiful land of Japanifornia
“NO DONT COMMIT PERJURY” and the moments leading up to it got me good XD
Rewatching this I remembered that in the Spanish translation of the game when the question about Cindy's name, instead of Cinder Block, the name is "Cindy Nero" meaning "no money", totally fits her tbh lol
Oh that’s good! 😂 I love hearing clever names in other languages.
48 seconds in and I can already tell this playthrough is going to be much better than the other “real lawyers play” ones
Yeah those spend all their time saying "It aint accurate" while this playthrough does seem to do that a bit, they do seem to actually be playing it. I do wonder how it feels to play, havnt ever actually played Ace Attorney, maybe I'll get later this year. It could go on sale for black friday
@@riskyworks I think it's on sale rn! If you do buy it, I hope you have fun :)
@@mega289 On what? and I cant buy it right now, I bought yokai watch 4 the other day, and I do need to complete Lego Star Wars. But I could definitely see myself buying it around black friday or in winter. Either way, have a great day
@@riskyworks Steam! And that's understandable, I hope you have a wonderful day as well :)
When Wes first did his voice for Payne, I knew he’d laugh once he heard Payne say “Objection!”
Based off Wes’s near perfect Payne impersonation I think I’m really gonna like this series lol. Great voice acting all around!
now i haven't watched the video yet, so this may be premature, and i don;t know if you guys brought this up, but if i recall correctly, the PW judicial system is based on a now defuct japanese law system that doesnt match the north american judicial systems, or even the current japanese ones, so it makes sense that a lawyer might see issue with the system
I think in the second episode Prij (our lawyer) mentions that the Japanese legal system had a 99% conviction rate, and these games were likely made to call attention to that. Obviously our lawyer is only licensed to practice in the States (Ohio specifically), but we try to add some context for what's going on, and then talking about what we know. 😅
@@mickobinsotosworth9759 What?
@@SaveDataTeam "Ohio specifically?" So not in the States, then? Because we all know that Ohio is separate from the rest of reality.
@@jomogaming2 Whenever an attorney passes the Bar, they must get a license to practice law in a particular state. For example, I used to work at a law firm where one of the partners had license to practice in West Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio, North Carolina, and Florida. He was looking at his license for Tennessee. A few of our associates were looking for licensure in Kentucky so they could work on cases assigned to the firm from those states. It’s kind of like teaching; you have to obtain certification to practice in different states. :) Hope that helped a little! I wish I knew more about the legal reasons behind it.
I just realized SAHWIT is a play of words like FRANK SAW IT
I had no idea until Wes said it that way and it blew my mind lol - Zak
Yeah theres a lot of jokes on characters names for example luke atmey= look at me
@@nitroplasma788 Oh wow, I don't think I realized that one either on my first playthrough lol
@@SaveDataTeam If you realize the puns are a regular thing, you might start trying to find them.
and then there's mr. how could this name be any longer and more pompous than it already is
“You with your objections and your evidence, just who do you think you are?!”
“An Attorney??”
Wow, I never knew you could show Larry the wrong thing at the end.
I didn't either, lol. I was surprised it was cool with that!
yeah you can mess up all the end of trial choices- it always stresses me out when i watch letsplays, because i don’t want people to miss out
This was awesome. All three of you guys have excellent chemistry together and this game is perfect for you guys.
Thank you! It's an incredibly fun series to record and it feels great to have found an audience for it!
I absolutely adore this. I also love how the real lawyer objects so quickly XD but also explains stuff it’s refreshing to not be too fact heavy but also get into the story with the mix I love how this is done
IM CRYING I NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT 45:09
Well, this is a fun playthrough. I like it!
Yes, this game was made, I believe, as a satire of the Japanese justice system. Apparently, Prij is already aware of the 99+% conviction rate. Also, apparently, police are (or were, at least) allowed to hold a suspect for several *weeks* without access to an attorney. Prij mentioned the lack of a jury as a feature of the game, but in fact, this is accurate: juries are nonexistent in Japan. However, I hear that some years back, they instituted something they call "lay judges", which sort of fulfill a similar role to juries, though I don't know the details.
Another thing that is accurate is that Japanese attorneys must have badges. (I believe the design is based on the Chrysanthemum Seal, aka the Imperial Seal of Japan. Except it's supposed to have 16 petals, and this one only has 14 if you count them!)
23:47 "They're breaking the rules". Ah, so this must be _Ace Attorney._ Got it. 😆
40:55 And yet, so many courtroom dramas have the defense attorney winning (even on a regular basis, with some series) by showing that a witness was the actual perpetrator. It's such a huge trope! 😆
41:38 TBF, even in _Ace Attorney,_ from what I know, they don't find the witness guilty right then and there (though I don't know much of the series, so maybe they do at some point?). They just use the evidence of them committing the crime to find the defendant not guilty. That said, you often have the police arresting said witness right in the court, before the verdict is even delivered. The judge even sometimes has to ask the prosecutor why the witness is no longer there! 😆
Yeah, some of the facts about the Japanese criminal justice system do seem pretty crazy (although I suppose the U.S.'s is far from perfect either, lol). And that's super cool about the badge! Glad you're enjoying so far! 😄
Ah yes, Lay Judges was an idea introduced actually not too long after the original trilogy ended, and uh... the Ace Attorney series definitely put in its two cents in on the benefits of the system.
@@cheshirewolf1574 Spoilers! Prij hasn't played Apollo Justice yet!
@@magentasky234 my bad! Hopefully they didn't read the comment, thanks for pointing it out! I deleted it :)
Japan's well known for its 99% conviction rate so... yeah, probably the least subtle parody of the Japanese legal system here is that virtually the only way to get your client acquitted is to find the actual murderer and get them to confess to their crime on the witness stand. Anything less, even firmly establishing your client couldn't possibly have done it, will still get a guilty verdict in the absence of that.
I'm gonna watch this series just because I want to see the Lawyer's reaction to the updated autopsy reports.
54:54 "Now I'm on trial for murder"
I think you get the irony.
you guys are SO underrated, this is the most entertaining play through i've ever seen! and don't even get me started on wes' voice acting...incredible!
Ah! Thank you so much! 😅
Wes' voice acting is great!
He really kills it. I am so excited for all the voices he’s gonna have to do in episode 3 😅
Can't believe he didn't even mention Larry's right against self incrimination
In the US, at least. I wonder how it is in Japan.
@@fllthdcrb
It does indeed exist in AA.
Game 2, Final Case.
@@leoleo4469 I was talking about real life.
@@fllthdcrb ...which probably means the right is in Japan.
This is a lot of fun! I like the voice acting and the little informational tidbits, very nice. This deserves more views!
Thank you! We appreciate it! 😅
Now to get a lawyer that knows about the Japanese legal system and the American legal system, so that they can actually provide relevant legal commentary, and point out the differences of both systems, to which systems things apply, and what doesn't happen in both systems.
Props for going further than only the first trial tho, which is probably the most inaccurate because it's a tutorial.
Wes voice acting its top notch. not only the voices fit the characters but the way he reads out the dialogue has so much life.
Wes captured the essence of Larry's character perfectly with the voice he gave him.
49:51 I see Prij already thinks like Phoenix Wright - bluff and figure out the rest later
Going back to this episode is so cool. We get to see how Zak and Wes developed the voices until they landed on the honestly now pretty iconic voices. Like the judges voice
Aw ty! 😅
My understanding of the legal system in Ace Attorney is basically an extremely detailed examination of absolutely everything you do NOT want in a legal system and demonstrates in explicit detail why you do not want it and why due process and complicated court procedures that basically reduce the actual trial to little more than a formal ceremony with a foregone conclusion is a good thing.
"Nick, you gotta tell me who took my baby away!" "A fire of unknown origin?"
ah, a fellow BÖC fan
Okay I stumbled upon this video through the recommendations bar on LegalEagle's video on Ace Attorney and oh what a delight!
Wes nailed it, and watching Prij have small aneurysms at points in the game reminds me of the time when LoadingReadyRun's Graham and Paul had their Mediaeval Studies PHD friend Brad come in for a Dante's Inferno let's play!
Finally the recommendation bar actually did a good thing for once.
Being recommended on LegalEagle’s video is humbling 😅. Glad you enjoyed!
@@SaveDataTeam I wouldn't be surprised if the algorithm fed a few people like me this way. To be clear, not linked by LegalEagle. Just... TH-cam algorithm'd
1:02:08 Holy shit! I can't believe Prij just hit us with a Gurren Lagann reference.
700 views ? What the hell is that ?! You definitely deserve more!
Aw thank you so much! 😅
Just found this Wes is crushing it already. So happy to find another AA playthough. Especially a fun concept that basically everyone always wants to see: a lawyer mocking how much of a mess the game is. One of my fav games all time. Subbed AND followed on twitch.
Thank you so much!
Wow the presentation of this is awesome! Think these games are better suited for streaming, and great work with the voice acting!
Thank you so much! We usually stream these playthroughs on our twitch every wednesday at 7:30 pm EST, and then upload the edited versions here. But feel free to tune in and watch us do it live! 😅
ooh ooh ooh! i know this is gonna be good! i'm already happy stimming like i haven't in a while, i have a feeling that this is going to be one of my favorite let's plays of this game
Aw thank you!! 😅
my first time through i chose cinder block because my dyslexia was like yeah man that says cindy go for it! i’ve never felt more shame than when the judge yelled at me
All 3 of you being on the same page with moms spaghetti is enough for me to know this whole series will be great!
In theme with the game, It's enough evidence to give this series an entertaining verdict.
In the localised version of the game, the series takes place in an alternate Los Angeles where, and I shit you not, Pearl Harbor never happened, and opinions on Japanese people was a lot better that it was, which meant a lost more Japanese immigrants. If you have any criticisms for how inaccurate the trials are, the canon reason is somewhere along the line the legal system became more like Japan's legal system, and the series is meant to be a parody of how that works. The first game takes place in 2016.
Prij's exasperated subvocalizations are also sheer delight.
Y'all have such great chemistry! It was really fun to watch :)
Thank you so much!
Poor Prij, I feel like he's going to have a stroke from the sheer amount of violations of court procedure and witness stupidity.
Im scared how he nailed payne impression like holy fuck spot on with his objection! voice
wow the voice acting is AMAZING im so glad i clicked on this video
16:05 hmm I'll be interested to see their take on Evidence Law then, because 1-5 establishes that all evidence in this series (at least in the original trilogy) is implied to be investigated by the police prior to being brought up in court
Aww! Listen to Wes's early voices! They sound so different from his voices today!
This is insanely underrated but i know what im binge watching now
Aw thank you! 😅
I came for the playthrough.
I stayed for the beautiful suit that Prij is wearing.
It really "suits" you, sir! (I am not sorry.)
I love that every streamer I've heard voice act Larry Butz makes the EXACT same choices
😂 I love this, it's as dramatic as I imagined it if it the game had voice.
this is so entertaining, im loving this setup and these ppl are hilarious 😆
Man, this is a really fun format. I really appreciate all the voice acting and all the fun commentary. I'll be subscribing and watching the rest!
Thank you!
I loved the voices you guys made, specially Payne and the Judge
I can't wait until you get to the 4th game, if you're doing the entire series.
Haha, well at the rate we’re going, we have a long time 😅 but we’re having a lot of fun so we probably won’t slow down anytime soon!
@@SaveDataTeamAbout 3 years to be honest
A gamer, a voice Actor And a Lawyer go live
Making a foolish choice of commenting before finishing, but they dont actually send the witnesses straight to jail. They have separate trials, but they're not shown on screen. It's probably not much better but yeah, lol.
This was a blast! I will grant this game is based on Japanese law but it's still great to see all the breaks from reality, especially the part where the objective of the case goes from "prove your client is innocent" to "prove someone else is guilty."
Just came across this video and 30 minutes in I can tell you this is absolute gold!
Love it!
Time for a rewatch. Still my favourite gaming playthrough of all time :D
Aw! Thank you so much!!
“Someone scan that and pass yourself off as Prij” Oh no it’s Don Tigre!
This is the beginning of a legendary series :)
This is amazing! Wes killed it with his voice acting holy shit!
Thank you!
Stumbled upon this. Incredible VA stuff here. Looking forward to watching the rest of this series.
Wes is very talented VA!
Wow. It’s crazy coming back to this now. You guys are so much more relaxed in the newer episodes. Don’t get me wrong, this video is still great, but it’s amazing how far this channel has come in such a short time. Truly incredible stuff!
Yeah, this first episode was filmed in the middle of a 24 hour live stream for charity, and we had no intention of it becoming a series 😅 but we have definitely learned a lot more about content creation and just found a really solid stride I think 😁
The voice acting is so good and in-character! Props to you guys for the effort.
Thank you!
lol the lawyer is probably like "When can this be over?" kind of like watching a bad movie. :D :D
8:04 Around here I realized that Zak's voice reminded me of something, Bear from Bear in the Big Blue House, which is a show I would've watched when I was really little.
Yeah, I can kinda see that lol
"Looks like you got fucking dunk'd on, Mr. Wright!" LMAOOO
"It was around 1pm i sahwit."
Me: ... the victim was murdered between 4 and 5 pm.
That Wes is a damn good voice actor, especially for a non professional project like this. What a fun job.
I think this is almost exactly what every Ace Attorney fan wants to see, and this is the only full play through of the game
This might be the first Let's Play I have actually enjoyed :D
Wow, it really has been almost 4 years of AAwaAL, remember when I stumbled upon this years ago after searching for something like "actual lawyer opinion on Ace Attorney". Have changed accounts on yt and had several life changing events ever since, but this remains as good as the day I first found it on rewatch.
