Ace Attorney Au - Blog Posts

Ace Attorney x Kirby AU because I am obsessed and nobody can stop me

Phoenix is the defence and Edgeworth is the prosecution because yes

Dedede is the defendant. I dunno if he’d be accused of murder or something more minor like stealing. Either way he’s innocent tho

Kirby replaces Maya as Phoenix's assistant. His special ability is eating the evidence. Is that helpful? Not in the least.

Meta Knight works with Edgeworth as his assistant. Being a witness would probably make more sense but I’m biased and want those two to work together so… Ye. The Kirby universe is a lot less realistic than the AA universe, so maybe Meta Knight's there to help Edgeworth with the more magical aspects of the case and explain shit. He’s pretty neutral on the whole situation, cuz he doesn’t believe that Dedede would commit a crime like this but the evidence is pretty damning.

Bandee’s the main witness and he hates it. He REALLY doesn’t wanna testify against Dedede, but he doesn’t have much of a choice. He probably tries to help Phoenix and Kirby in any way possible during investigations to get Dedede declared innocent.

Magolor’s probably one of those troublesome witnesses that bring Edgeworth pain lmao

More under the cut

The crime would take place in Dedede's castle probably. Wherever it is it’s pretty dark out when the crime happens, so stuff like colour isn’t very visible. Still, Dedede's silhouette is pretty recognizable, and it’d be hard to mistake him for someone else.

There’s probably a photo of the crime, maybe from a security camera or something. That could be why Magolor gets called in as a witness actually. He had recently set up all those cameras around the castle, so he was asked to talk about them.

It’s probably initially thought that Dedede was possessed when he committed the crime, since he has a history of that happening. Maybe Maya's called in as an expert on ghosts. Spirit channelling isn’t the same thing as what Zero, Dark Matter, etc. does, but it’s the closest thing the Ace Attorney characters would be able to compare it to. Still, judging by past cases, Dedede would still be declared guilty even if he had been possessed.

Maybe sometime during one of the trials, Kirby decides to snack on a seemingly innocent piece of evidence and becomes Poison Kirby, revealing that poison was used in some way during the crime?

During… I guess the second trial, when all hope seems lost, Kirby copies Phoenix’s lawyer abilities and realizes that the Meta Knight at the Prosecutor’s bench is, in fact, Dark Meta Knight! Apparently, Dark Meta Knight had disguised himself as Meta Knight and switched places with him during a recess (or even before the trial started). The real Meta Knight was probably locked inside a closet or something

This opens up the possibility that someone from the Mirror World committed the crime. The Ace Attorney characters didn’t even know the Mirror World existed until this point, and the Kirby crew never considered the idea since they thought the portal was closed.

Shadow Dedede ends up being questioned and brought to court, and he is found out to be the real culprit of the case.

ok ok ok so recently i've been playing through the ace attorney games (i haven't started three yet but i remember most of the plot bc of the anime) and for some reason i wanted to take a shot at what an "accurate" no DL-6 AU would look like! I just think it's interesting to see what might've actually happened if DL-6 never happened bc DL-6 is kinda the major butterfly effect in the AA world. Idk if i wanna make this an actual AU or just a ramble on how the series would be completely different without DL-6 lmao. We'll see! Maybe you guys decide :D anyway MAJOR AA TRILOGY SPOILERS AHEAD

I'll start with the characters. Gregory Edgeworth would still be alive, Miles would become a defense attorney & work with his father at his law firm. Phoenix would most likely pursue his artist career. Narumitsu/Wrightworth tbh would still happen bc they need to be canon PLEASE CAPCOM. Just that there would be no rivalry.

Anyway the Dahlia case would've been so different but also kinda the same without DL-6. It was because of DL-6 that Misty Fey left Kurain Village and Mia also left to become a defense attorney. Without Mia, it would've most likely only been Diego Armando taking on the first Dahlia case with Terry Fawles. Fawles would probably still commit suicide, and I believe Diego still would've investigated Dahlia further & gotten poisoned by her, but without Mia becoming a defense attorney & being killed by Redd White in 1-2, Diego would've never had a reason to become Godot so he probably would've stayed as a defense attorney. Furthermore, without Mia it most likely would've been Miles taking Phoenix as a client in 3-1 bc childhood friends never losing touch bc no DL-6 (you get the point lmfao).

Like, I think about maybe half the cases in the original trilogy would've NEVER happened if DL-6 never happened bc we would've never met Mia or Maya or Pearl, Yanni Yogi wouldn't need to take out his revenge, Von Karma wouldn't have been arrested, Franziska would've never wanted revenge so she most likely would've never come to Japanifornia, I think the only person that would never change is fucking LARRY and that's honestly the craziest part LMAO.

agh i'm getting kinda tired bc it's late so i'll probably finish this ramble tomorrow. there's so much I wanna talk about but my mind is going at like 1000 mph so I need to get my thoughts together lmfao

TLDR: DL-6 is the butterfly effect for the entire ace attorney world & many of the characters we know and love wouldn't even exist/be introduced if it weren't for it.

EDIT: removed the censor for suicide bc apparently tumblr is weird and idk how it works (please be nice ab me making mistakes next time I didn’t appreciate you guys basically yelling at me)

My danganronpa looks weird......

Ms paint doodles down below + death order (decided by a wheel)

Haha dangenrenpers au

Reblogs arent necessary but greatly appreciated!

Me and a friend (*cough cough* @x-eightball *cough cough*) have some ace attorney ocs!

Well— actually we have a lot, but that’s something for another day.

This is my dear, my love, Lassie Prism!

She’s a prosecutor and a roller derby player with a very eccentric style. She encountered her first loss to and was defended by the unluckiest defense attorney alive (Bellwether Luck), so they’re like besties now.

I’ve been doing a lot of stuff with her behind the scenes and am super excited to share it :D We basically have an entire game written out already lol

Here’s some more pictures just for funsies (and because my pookie is talented and I love him)

Hypothetically, if you guys have ace attorney oc’s

would you guys like for them to be in like a small little eensy teensy bitsy little role in @i-am-not-phoenix-wright ?

hypothetically of course 🥸

you can trust me with your oc’s i promise i wont hurt them 😁🤞

go to some college and become a lawyer, or whatever JD said

[ in a world of only you and me ]
