| I was wondering about how many people that had never played the games are watching this series. So far I have played all of the occidental releases, but I'm planning to start Investigations 2... Also, to the people that have never played the games,what do you think about the series so far? I know that one of my friends that hasn't played the games is watching the series, and so far she is enjoying it quite a lot. |
| I played the games long before watching the anime, which I was a little disappointed about. I think it's one of those anime that you say "play the games, don't watch the anime." I love the Ace Attorney games so much :3c |

It's arguably one of "debeste" games in the series HAHAHA YOU DESERVE A COOKIE FOR THAT ^O^ The translators really did a great job in pulling off the official-release look...xD I've played all the games and loved them all. No matter what anyone says, I can see the anime going in a good direction too (especially the Edgeworth case we're on right now) |
| I've played all main games from 1 to 5, both Investigations games, Professor Layton vs Ace Attorney and I also watched the movie adaption of AA1 and I greatly enjoy and love the anime. |
| So far I've only finished the first game, and Dual Destinies. It's been fun watching how they adapted the game into different episodes. I'm looking forward to seeing it through completely fresh eyes. I'm sure it won't effect my enjoyment of the rest of the games once I get to them :) |
| I did and it's probably the reason why I'm enjoying this anime so much. |
| Played all the games (just started Investigations 2 and about halfway through the crossover) and was immediately turned off by the Anime. To be fair, they improved a bit with the Steel Samurai case and you can tell they actually cared what they were doing with DL-6, but overall, it's still lacking greatly, especially the poor animation and the mostly lazy translation into another medium. Not worth recommending in my book, but I know I'll stick with it till the end, mostly for loving the games and characters so much. Even though the Anime doesn't quite seem to "get" all of them, but I understand that's just nitpicking on my part. My biggest problem actually lies within the meta: A1 is clearly doing it for name recognition rather than actually having an idea on how to translate it properly into another medium, it's definitely not a passion project. I saw Bokumachi the season before Ace Attorney started airing and even though it wasn't perfect, there was a ton of love put into it that it felt so much more engaging than Ace Attorney, Re:Zero - though not an A1-show - shows the same spirit I'm talking about and aired alongside AA, so... I KNOW they could do better and as someone who deeply cares about the franchise, it's heartbreaking they don't... |

There is nothing terribly wrong with feeling lost, so long as that feeling precedes some plan on your part to actually do something about it. Too often a person grows complacent with their disillusionment, wearing their discomfort like a favorite shirt - Johnny C.   |
| i've played the first game but i started getting busy with a few stuff (mostly watching anime and playing other video games) and totally forgot to continue the rest. when i knew about the anime adaptation, i decided to just continue by watching the anime. i might continue playing the games after the anime is finished airing. so far, i've been enjoying the anime quite a lot |
| I've played all the releases before Dual Destinies and the cross-over with Professor Layton (all on 3ds, so, yeah, someday I'm gonna buy it but it's not for now despite I'm so eager of trying those and AA6 too). The first trilogy is awesome, although JFA is my least favourite (the circus case was so meh). Ace Attorney Investigations deserves an anime too, it's really "debeste" as someone said. Not that, the adaptation was quite the letdown, especially the animation and the graphic quality. Everything was just too rushed so, to everyone starting this anime, I highly recommend they play the game and then watch this. The most appreciable thing about the adaptation, was the original episode with Phoenix & Co. as children, which explained also the myth of Pess, Miles' dog (remember how it was supposed to be a sort of joke thrown by the director/producer?) |

| I've played all of them except for Investigations 2 & Dai Gyakuten Saiban - such a great series! I'm playing the Trilogy on 3DS right now and just met Godot ... good times :D |
| I've played the original trilogy, Apollo Justice, Investigations 1, Layton Vs and AA 5. (So whatever has been available so far) I'm looking for a rom/translation for Investigations 2. The anime, while being far from how perfect it could've been, is still really enjoyable for me. I've always wanted a AA anime, and now I have one. That alone makes me happy. :) |

| I've played all the main series games, that is Ace Attorneys 1-5, want to get around to playing the spin off titles too but I dunno when that's gonna be. |
 |
| Are you waiting official one? There is a fan translated rom exist. |
Sorry for my bad English. |
| I've played all of the games, Investigations 2 and Layton crossover included, aside from the one with Sherlock Holmes. And I find this anime adaptation really disappointing because it doesn't really feel like it hits the same highs as the games do. |
| I've played the original trilogy, Apollo Justice, and the first Ace Attorney Investigations one. Too bad they never licensed the 2nd Investigations game in America, for some strange reason. |
No, I know that Nintendo of America has failed us there. Actually, I'm currently looking for a rom like you mentioned... |

| I played the trilogy and watched two playthroughs of it over the years. I guess it makes sense that the anime and game are in contradiction with each other... but I don't like it. |
