Gyakuten Saiban 2: The Truth Reborn, Again...



Gyakuten Saiban 2: The Truth Reborn, Again... (逆転裁判2 −蘇る真実, 再び...) is the second of three musicals based on the Ace Attorney video game series. The first half of this musical is completely original, while the second half is loosely based on Farewell, My Turnabout. A collaboration between Capcom Japan and the Takarazuka Revue, an all-female musical theater troupe, the show starred Cosmos Troupe's Tomu Ranju in the lead role. After the success of the first musical, The Truth Reborn, this sequel was performed from August to September, 2009. Although the show is a Japanese production, it used the names from the English localizations of the games.

Act 1
A few months after his defense of Clyde, Wright moved his practice to his hometown in California. However, Wright is now a broken man, as Leona died in an accident shortly after. He has lost his drive to be a lawyer, and is considering retirement.

While there, a woman named Lucia Aleia asked him to defend her mother in court. When asked why, she explained that her mother was the teacher for his classroom trial and he takes the case, ready to take on Franziska von Karma in court.

Act 2
Maya Fey is kidnapped and Wright is blackmailed into defending the true culprit against Miles Edgeworth.

After the case, Wright decides to continue his law career after having a talk with Lucia. They part ways, and Wright walks into the sunset.
