Saw someone say that Klapollo is poor man's Narumitsu and I have A Lot Of Things to say about that. First off, Klapollo's dynamic is in no way comparable to Narumitsu, each ship has their own unique value and merit to them. You have these two guys who used to be childhood best friends until the other got adopted by his father's murder and had to leave for Germany and when Phoenix saw his face again, he learned that he had become a prosecutor, when he wanted to be a defense attorney like his father. His demeanor had also changed, gone was the Edgeworth who stood up for him in the class trial, he seemingly became a man who would do anything to win a case. And so Phoenix dropped everything he had planned for his life to become a defense attorney JUST SO HE CAN TALK TO THE MAN AGAIN. Now let me remind you that Edgeworth spended most of his life thinking that he had killed his father in that elevator, here comes Phoenix when Edgeworth got framed for murder. He reveals the truth to Edgeworth, that he hadn't killed his father, the real murderer was the one who had taught him everything he knew, who took him under his wing and acted as a guardian for him (a terrible one for sure though). He is able to take off this guilt that Edgeworth has been letting cosume him for all these years. He is able to deliver closure to Edgeworth's trauma.
It's also worth noting that Edgeworth has a customized chessboard that has the pieces look like him and Phoenix. Also we musn't forget "You've saddled me with... unnecessary feelings".
Now Klapollo? Sure they share some similarities to Narumitsu but the appeal is different. For you see, here is this lawyer who was a prodigy in school and he's also a world-renowned rockstar, here's this Guy who is a fan of Phoenix Wright and got into law as he was inspired by him. Klavier sees this average-looking man and goes "I've never felt this way with a man before~", Phoenix and Edgeworth would never be able to have done that, nah man everything these motherfuckers do together has to be dramatic as shit (sure you've got comedic moments here and there but these two are so angsty istg). The thing with Klapollo is that unlike Narumitsu, they are actually able to maintain a friendly relationship before the big climax of the games. Klavier is able to act professional (sorry Edgeworth but um... yeah) towards Apollo and doesn't go out of his way to antagonize him. You see, one of the main appeals for this ship is that Klavier twirls his hair and daydreams about this Some Guy who is the most Some Guy to ever live and probably takes pride in that (of course he has a shounen anime protagonist backstory but we'll get to that in a bit). And now we reach the part where we learn more about Apollo, and how you can draw parallels to Klavier's situation. Apollo just like Klavier has an estranged relationship with his brother, of course Apollo's brother had to be separated him due to Ga'ran's reign of terror and Nahyuta was forced to send defense attorneys to their deaths to keep his little sister safe, unlike Kristoph who did everything on purpose to achieve glory. Klapollo are not in any way comparable to Narumitsu, because Klapollo offers a healthy relationship with a solid foundation, a fun dynamic and some depth to it while Narumitsu is... I mean it's not unhealthy it's just that they're a fucking mess like they added way more extra steps in friends to enemies to lovers

SPOILERS FOR PA:AA—T&T RECIPE FOR TURNABOUT
I was playing through PA:AA Trials and Tribulations, and I just realized that no one talks about Recipe for Turnabout.
Why? How can no one in this fandom not go bat shit insane for Phony Phoenix? I mean look at this man
Tumblr media
He’s bat chit insane. The madlad is literally an anti-Phoenix. He calls himself the Tiger. He growls at the jury. He’s so scary the Judge hides under his desk.
HE MAKES A FAKE ATTORNEY BADGE OUT OF CARDBOARD AND PRETENDS TO BE PHOENIX IN!!! COURT!!!!!!
AND NOBODY SAYS ANYTHING!
Gumshoe, the Judge, Maggey, AND EVEN MAYA don’t register that its NOT PHOENIX.
He’s constantly screaming. He’s growling. He tells Phoenix that for every dumb question he asks he’s gonna sue him $50,000.
HE’S BRIGHT. FUCKING. RED.
I refuse to acgnowledge this Furio Tigre erasure. That case was a fucking wild ride. That man impersonated the most popular defense attorney and almost got away with it, and it was heavily implied that he was dating the granddaughter of the
HEAD OF THE GODDAMN MAFIA.
Did I mention he roars like a tiger? I don’t think you understand. This man has AUDIO DIALOGUE THAT PLAYS EVERY TIME HE ROARS. EVEN PHOENIX HIDES UNDER HIS DESK FROM HIM.
LOOK AT THAT SUIT!!!!
And then lets step away from fuckin Tiger Phoenix for a minute.
We ALSO learn that Gumshoe is SUPER SOFT for Maggey Bryde. She gets arrested for supposedly being the murderer, and Gumshoe is in HYSTERICS. He runs around like a lost puppy doing everything he can to get Maggey out with the same if not more panic than he had when Edgeworth was arrested. AND ITS SO??? WHOLESOME?????
Tumblr media
Like he’s SO CUTE TOO. He makes Maggey lunches, because he notices she’s been loosing weight and doesn’t want her to be unhealthy. When he understands that Maggey is mad at him because of a misunderstanding, he avoids her because she says she doesn’t want to see him, and he doesn’t want to push himself onto her.
HE’S SUCH A GENTLEMAN?? WHY DO I NOT SEE MORE MAGGEY AND GUMSHOE SHIP ART.
Not only that, but they have PERFECT ENERGY TOGETHER. They’re both like energetic dogs you can rely on. They’re excited, and they’re here to do their best. They can do no wrong.
Also, Gumshoe and Maggey LOVE the same foods and it’s adorable. You can’t change my mind; straight ships can be adorable too I’m literally a gay man call me homophobic I dare you.
ALSO JUST?? THE OTHER CHARACTERS AS WELL?????
First up we’ve got who I like to call
Tumblr media
Grandpa Seedman (A.K.A. Victor Kudo)
What a man. What a madlad. He makes me want to dump him in a fucking silo of birdseed.
Why is he here? Why does he have all that birdseed? Why can’t he calm down and stop throwing it for five seconds? If I had to guess what Wendy Oldbag’s ex-husband would be like, this is exactly who I think it would be. They’re both insufferable to no end. Let me throw them outa window.
Tumblr media
Then we got Monsieur Essential Oils (A.K.A. Jean Armstrong)
What In The Royal Fuck. Where are these roses coming from. Why does his restaurant look like a Hello Kitty Lolita Cafe. He’s also half a million dollars in debt. I would ask why but if you took one look in hid goddamn restaurant you would understand why. Also literally everyone in the game thinks his food is shit.
Please sir. Please you’re so gay it hurts. He’s literally April May but a guy. Actively flirts with Gotot which is pretty funny so you get some extra points.
Tumblr media
Wednesday Addams (A.K.A. Viola Cadaverini)
So little miss is the granddaughter of a fucking MOB BOSS and she is literally true crime. Constantly mutters about offering you tea. Would be a nice gesture if the murder in this case WASNT CAUSED BY SOMEONE BEING POISONED THROUGH A DRINK also the fact that the MURDERER IS HER BOSS
She’s actually pretty chill, despite how off-putting she is. Would love to listen to true crime and watch the Twilight Zone with her. She deserves better.
Tumblr media
THIS MOTHERFUCKER
HOW THE FUCK DID NO ONE NOTICE IT WASNT PHOENIX THE BITCH IS LITERALLY BRIGHT FUCKING RED
He also rides a teeny fuckin scooter thats like neon pink and blue which is so goddamn funny to me especially considering the fact that that tiny ass scooter caused a massive crash which he walked away from unscathed but the DRIVER was sent to the EMERGENCY ROOM and had A MILLION DOLLARS worth of surgery done.
This man can fight god and win the only reason he didn’t get away with the murder is because bitch straight up went “haha Phoenix Wright you dumb bitch thats not the poison bottle I used get your facts straight” and Godot has a fucking ANEURISM because all of these witnesses are SO FUCKING STUPID
Godot was the real victim here holy shit this fucking case was the most bat shit insane stuff how the FUCK did no one talk more about this PLEASE
TL;DR Give Recipe For Turnabout more love. It’s the most unhinged shit on the planet.

Those. Fucking. Chessboards.
I've already been writing a fanfic about them since last month (and had to stop because Research is kicking us all in the ass and I needed to start pulling my weight) but it's still driving me fucking nuts. Why for the love of FUCK does Edgeworth own THREE- THREE WHOLE- A S S CHESSBOARDS- him vs. Phoenix-themed chessboards- and bECAUSE I'VE BEEN WRITING A FANFICTION ABOUT IT, I NOW KNOW HOW MUCH THOSE CHESSBOARDS C O S T AND LET ME TELL YOU- THEY AIN'T COMING CHEAP.
And because this is Miles 'I can charter a private jet on demand because my legal partner got himself thrown off a burning bridge and I need to see him immediately' Edgeworth you can BET that those chessboards are custom-made with the most high-end materials with prices that'll make the Kardashians horny. Like come on REALLY- RED AND B L U E chess pieces with his and Phoenix's likenesses? BLUE PAWNS WITH SPIKY HEADS. RED KNIGHTS WITH SHARP EDGES. It's expensive ENOUGH just ordering the chessboards- but nAH- EDGEWORTH HAD TO BE EXTRA AND ORDER CUSTOM-MADE PIECES AND IT'S DRIVING ME I N S A N E.
And in case anybody's curious there's a naturally blue wood that can be used for this and it's called Blue Mahoe. I had to look it up. They're not used for making chess pieces, but they ARE pretty GODDAMN blue and are from JAMAICA and I'm willing to bet my chances at scholarships that Miles Edgeworth deadass ordered fresh Blue Mahoe from Jamaica just to satisfy his gay-ass urges. AND A S I D E FROM BLUE MAHOE, IT'S NOT LIKE ROSEWOOD, REDWOOD, BOXWOOD, AND EBONY ARE THAT CHEAP EITHER.
oh and did I mention that Edgeworth owns three of these things.
just game-end me already.  I'm done- it's too gay-
am I fixating too hard on an in-game detail that the writers (*cough* Takumi you brilliant bitch *cough*) threw in because they KNEW Edgeworth's and Phoenix's relationship was just THAT gay? yes. it's a weird burden to carry.

UTIL Plays Phoenix Wright: Justice For All (pt.1 of 2) (Case: The Lost Turnabout)
- “Why does it look like (Maggey) has loftwings feathers in her uniform) “SHE’S A SKYLOFTIAN CONFIRMED”
- Payne Voice:“The defense is accused of killing her lover” “I don’t like it when you say lovers, DON’T SAY LOVERS” 
- Maggey: It’s too bad I’m a cop The whole call: Just quit! Walk out! You can leave! Hit da bricks! Just quit!
-Maggey: You gotta get up in their faces Phoenix VA: What?? Am I kissing them?? Edgeworth VA:“Wright you better not be kissing anyone behind my back”
-Phoenix VA, still using the Judge’s voice: “Actually I’m cross examining the witness fuck you” Franziska VA, mimicking the judge:“I’m the judge, I’m the jury, I’m every attorney here, get the fuck out of here this is MY house” 
-“I think Payne and the judge are bitter exes, and that’s why he’s the only one the judge overrules, because he knows he can and he’s a bitter motherfucker”  Entire VC: Agreement, motion sustained, the judge and mr. Payne are bitter exes
-Phoenix VA: Accidentally reads Phoenix’s line in the Judge’s voice again VC: looses it, Phoenix gets extra points for doing such a good impression,
- “Officer Prince was murdered just for being in uniform” VC: Unanimous noises of agreement
- “Phoenix why is your ringer the steel samurai theme?” Edgeworth VA:  “I bribed maya to change it to the steel samurai theme song because he’s so inept with technology” - Everyone cheering for the confetti, gumshoe our beloved
