Closing credits

At the end of every Ace Attorney game, there is an epilogue that shows where all of the characters are after that game. They don't usually include villains or victims.

Turnabout Goodbyes

 * Gumshoe mentioned that Edgeworth came to wish the detective a happy new year... using the same awkward cheer from after the trial.
 * Larry mentioned that he hadn't seen Nick around lately, and that he started working at a cheese shop, as his girlfriend Missy wasn't a 'cheap date'. And where was Missy? In Hawaii...
 * When asked about Wright, Winston Payne falsely claimed that he taught him everything that he knew.
 * The Bellboy at the Gatewater Hotel remembered Wright as the defense attorney he swore that affidavit for. He also took over the management at the hotel.
 * Marvin Grossberg remembered Wright as Mia's understudy, and wondered how he was doing.
 * Wendy Oldbag didn't remember who Wright was, and wondered if he was an actor. Remarking that nobody could be a star with the name 'Phoenix', Wendy added that Jack Hammer's movies were being released on DVD, whatever those were...
 * Will Powers stated that the Pink Princess became a big hit, and that he owed Wright a great deal. He was also staying out of the public's eye, as he didn't want to disappoint the kids by showing his face.
 * Penny Nichols got a letter from Maya, stating that she got a cold standing under a waterfall. Not having the time to visit, Penny sent Maya some Pink Princess cards, as they didn't sell them in Maya's village. Penny wondered what kind of place it was...
 * Cody Hackins didn't know who Wright was, and would rather talk about the Pink Princess. While sneaking around the studio one day, he saw who it was underneath the mask. He was shocked to see what a dog the actor playing the Pink Princess was.
 * Lotta stated that she was going to become a paranormal photographer. As it turns out, the picture she took after Edgeworth's trial had a ghost in it!

Rise from the Ashes

 * Lana Skye explained that Ema would be sent to a friend of hers in Europe, who worked as a coroner, since she herself would be in jail. She expressed a desire to work on cases with Ema when the latter became a forensic scientist.
 * Gumshoe was invited back on the force, and declared that he couldn't be got rid of that easily.
 * Mike Meekins was demoted to guarding the evidence locker, but was still determined to become a detective like Gumshoe one day.
 * The Blue Badger panel continued dancing until its batteries ran out.
 * Jake Marshall was arrested for theft of evidence. He was thankful that Ema was happy again, and asked that the cacti in the guard station were watered.
 * Angel Starr added a new lunch to her menu: the "Wright Way Lunch", with a bitter-tasting top half but sweet-tasting lower half. The "turnabout" theme proved popular among students undergoing exams.
 * The judge attempted to remember who Wright was, before realizing he'd forgot his gavel while rushing to another trial.
 * Maya continued her training back in Kurain Village. She admitted to missing Wright and his "objections", but was determined to soldier on with her training until she was a proper spirit medium.
 * The bellboy brought Edgeworth his usual tea, but found his office deserted, with only a letter left behind.
 * Ema Skye was sad that she and Lana were going to be separated, but remained positive. She revealed a photo left in the book Lana had given her, which was a picture of the two sisters when they were younger.

Farewell, My Turnabout

 * Maya was delighted that Wright had managed to save her life once again. Considering this had been the third time her life had been on the line, she admitted she now felt "like a pro".
 * Pearl was also delighted that Wright had managed to save Maya. After hearing that the Gatewater Imperial Hotel was a popular choice for honeymooners, she booked a reservation for the two of them.
 * Gumshoe was reinstated into the police force on Edgeworth's request. This was largely due to Gumshoe's accident, and how dangerous it would be to "let [him] go", but the detective seemed oblivious to this.
 * Maggey Byrde resigned as a police officer and took on a role as a waitress at a local restaurant, hoping that Wright would drop by some day.
 * "Director Hotti" admitted that he missed seeing von Karma, remembering that he'd get whipped by her even if he looked at her. However, he admitted he didn't mind this at all.
 * The remaining members of the Berry Big Circus began preparations for a world tour, starting with Zimbabwe. While Moe, Ben and Trilo began practicing, Regina Berry asked Maximillion Galactica what Zimbabwe was like, wondering if there were castles made of cake, and talking rabbits. Max claimed that, even if the rabbits could talk, they still wouldn't laugh at Moe's jokes.
 * Oldbag was still searching Engarde's room using Gumshoe's bug sweeper, to no avail. She didn't mind since Edgeworth had requested it, but she began to suspect that something was amiss. The prospect of being forgotten caused her to rant again.
 * Andrews was grateful for both Wright and Edgeworth's actions. She also received a letter from von Karma, saying she should consult her once all charges had been dropped.
 * De Killer decided to take a leave of absence, citing "living difficulties". He stated that anyone needing his services should check his homepage before leaving, but not before his transceiver self-destructed to prevent the police tracking him.

Bridge to the Turnabout

 * Maya plans to train extra-hard for her roles as Master of Kurain, manager of Wright & Co. Law Offices and big sister to Pearl and Wright. That is, as long as she doesn't get locked up or captured again...
 * Pearl is excited that Wright went through the special course for Maya, citing him as her cousin's "knight in shining armor". She's also heard of an extra-special Ultra Course at the Hazakura Temple, and might surprise Wright and Maya by secretly reserving it for them...
 * Maggey Byrde has bought Gumshoe a new trench coat, but notes that he doesn't look the same in a clean one. Luckily, Gumshoe's line of work means it'll get dirty soon enough...
 * Adrian Andrews is happy that the Treasures of Kurain exhibit was a great success. She also got to see von Karma again, who taught her how to use a whip, and told her to show what she learned to Wright sometime...
 * Ron and Desirée DeLite have started a company called Mask☆DeMasque Consulting, dedicated to stopping the criminals in the city. (The motto: "Cut it out, pleeeeeeeease!") As a side business, though, they also sell plans to criminals. Ron then wonders if they actually are the true criminals...
 * Viola Cadaverini has returned the $500,000 to Furio Tigre, and a tea set with a special tea Viola made herself...
 * Victor Kudo's grandchildren recently threw him a birthday party, embarrassing the old codger and making him cry as well...
 * Lisa Basil has hired a new programmer to replace Glen Elg at Blue Screens, Inc.: Adam Mada.
 * Sister Bikini notes that since the murder, more reporters and money have come to Hazakura Temple, and hopes Iris will soon come back.
 * Iris is glad that Phoenix and company visited her at the detention center, and that he only had eyes for her. However, she's a bit sorry that 'the little one' slapped Feenie so hard that he got a nosebleed.
 * Wendy Oldbag has returned from her vacation to her security job, only to find no one to greet her since Butz quit. She then rants all about it and even mentions that she had brought some Macadamian nuts for Edgey-poo...

Turnabout Succession
Guy Eldoon was inspired to make a new noodle recipe containing just a large hunk of salt. He explained that since his noodles were all about extreme saltiness, why should he pretend otherwise?
 * Apollo Justice decided to stay with the Wright Anything Agency, much to Trucy's delight. She said it was like she had gained a long lost brother, being completely oblivious to how close to the truth that was. She also mentioned her plans to perform in Troupe Gramarye, with Mr. Hat (now called Hat Gramarye) set to be a big hit with the crowd.
 * Klavier Gavin, realizing how much the last trial had "rocked", decided to disband the Gavinners in order to focus on his legal career. According to him, the news of the band's breakup had caused a run on tissues at supermarkets world-wide. He felt that Justice was the real star now, and was looking forward to their next battle in the courtroom.
 * Phoenix Wright was glad that his last case was finally over and realized that he had been a piano player longer than he had been a lawyer. Considering what to do with the time he now had on his hands, he entertained the possibility of taking piano lessons. He also pondered the idea of retaking the Bar Exam to get his badge back (which he actually did one year later).
 * Ema Skye briefly considered making golden Snackoos, but she realized that the preservatives wouldn't be 100% safe.
 * Olga Orly seemed to have retained her job at the Borscht Bowl Club as both a waitress and as a dealer for Wright's poker games.
 * The Kitakis started a business selling muffins with kanji characters on them that read "root" and "people". Wocky Kitaki insisted on calling them "O.G. Crackers".
 * Wesley Stickler, who had previously been mocked as "Wesley Stinkler" and "Wesley Stickyhands", received a new nickname, "Wesley Sicko". While it was obviously meant negatively, Stickler was convinced that it was a reference to his curing the sickness of curiosity.
 * Now having her memory back, Thalassa Gramarye looked to her children as inspiration for her next song.
 * Spark Brushel went back on the beat. He still didn't have his scoop, but his confidence was not shaken.
 * Vera Misham took up painting originals. She looked to the outside for inspiration; she was not afraid anymore, having met good people from the outside.

Turnabout Ablaze

 * Rhoda Teneiro put her suitcases on sale over the internet, where they became a sensation for being truly "post-modern". Teneiro was subsequently selected to design the next line of iFly Airlines jets.


 * Zinc Lablanc received the Primidux Statue from Palaeno, though he noted that it felt a little light...
 * Interpol offered Franziska von Karma to work with them on another case, but she declined in favor of the Cohdopian courts.
 * Mike Meekins was fired from the police force after losing his badge. He thought of filing a complaint with "Ruffles Man".
 * Ema Skye had hoped to speak with Edgeworth a little more, but she had to return to Europe. She hoped to come back one day as a real forensic scientist to help him.
 * Lauren Paups got off easy for her role in the kidnapping because it had been faked, though she was placed under house arrest. She fawned over her guard with his cold stare...
 * The judge heard some rumors about Edgeworth's recent escapades and wondered whether he should team up with a bailiff and become a lawyer.
 * Maggey Byrde was fired from her security job because she had lost her key, but she didn't lose hope. She commented that changing jobs was becoming fun.
 * Colias Palaeno was hard at work promoting the Cohdopian Embassy. The theater had recently presented the "Let's Investigate a Murder!" show, but the show had ended up starting some real fires, but Palaeno had high hopes for his next attraction, "Catch the Yatagarasu!" He intended to enlist Kay Faraday's help for this.
 * Mindy ditched Larry Butz and traveled to Japan, but Butz quickly moved on to another girl, Miharu. They were planning to set up a business in Paris selling "Blue Ocean Dogs". Speaking of which, Butz wondered what had happened to the "guy in the blue suit"...
 * Tyrell Badd testified in Alba's American trial as part of the Yatagarasu. Lang later told Badd that elements of the smuggling ring were moving again. Badd guessed that they were fighting to succeed Alba as the leader. Badd wished that he'd never heard of the ring, but Lang was ready to bring the entire ring to justice. Badd wondered when he had gotten so old.
 * Wendy Oldbag got a letter from "Edgey-poo" saying, "Please take care of your hip, and when you wish to speak, first take off your headpiece."

The Grand Turnabout

 * Mikiko Hayami and Lotta Hart were continuing their usual lookout for the next big scoop. Hart refused to give Hayami any information, as they were technically in competition for a scoop. However, Hart seemed to hold a double standard regarding asking Hayami for information.
 * Shelly de Killer, apparently having evaded Shi-Long Lang, was now at Gourd Lake. His wound still had not healed, and he remarked he'd never forget the man who had given it to him. He contemplated continuing to sell ice cream or perhaps running a crêperie; he desired to live a calm life until his services were called upon again.
 * Shūji Orinaka was not about to let his defeat at Miles Edgeworth's hands get him down. He would keep working toward a successful prison escape.
 * Frank Sahwit talked about continuing to work toward being a pet trimmer. However, as soon as he learned that he had his prison sentence extended due to acting as an accomplice to Marī Miwa, he became enraged and gave up on his supposed dream.
 * Regina Berry was still shocked by her former employee's actions, but tried to put it behind her to carry on her next circus show. She would have to work hard to surpass the magic and ventriloquist divisions.
 * Ryōken Hōinbō was surprised that he would go to such lengths to save a child that he had saved on a whim. He was happy to have the child as a fellow inmate.
 * Issei Tenkai and Tsukasa Oyashiki were singing in the detention center Visitor's Room. Tenkai vowed to visit Oyashiki every day, just as she and Tateyuki Shigaraki had done for him.
 * Delicy Scone schemed to develop new diet drugs to use with Tenkai's sweets.
 * Larry Butz's drawings of women cost him his current girlfriend. He contemplated whether to be more serious with his life, or to pursue his next girlfriend.
 * Tyrell Badd was set to testify in the IS-7 Incident retrial. Tateyuki Shigaraki told him about Edgeworth's decision. Shigaraki still intended to watch over Edgeworth. Badd commented that Shigaraki had grown up as well.
 * Due to her being forced to aid Bansai, Tōko Mutō was not seriously punished, and returned to act as a coroner's assistant to her grandmother, Otome Itami. Mutō still regretted what she had done, but she was glad that she could still be with her grandmother and work alongside her.
 * Ema Skye would return once again to her studies abroad to become a full-fledged forensic scientist.
 * Franziska von Karma empathized with Yumihiko Ichiyanagi, as both of them had to overcome the legacy of a skilled, but criminal, father.
 * Shi-Long Lang never could have imagined the truth that his father had protected for the sake of his country. Lang declared that he would carry on his father's legacy and revitalize the Republic of Zheng Fa.
 * Yumihiko Ichiyanagi asked everyone to stop using the nickname "Ichiryuu" because it felt as if he was still feeding off of his father's power. He would study hard on his own so that even Edgeworth would not defeat him easily.
 * Thanks to all the publicity due to the murder of the body double, the Borumosu movie received a great reception. However, Penny Nichols noted that the newspapers seemed to mistake Will Powers as the "monster" who had killed the president of Zheng Fa.
 * Shimon Aizawa realized that he enjoyed being an actor. He told Hakari Mikagami that he wanted to buy a lion lily in his father's memory. Mikagami suggested buying three, one each for her and for Ami Aizawa.

Turnabout for Tomorrow

 * Trucy found a bunch of new jobs for Justice, and did not seem to mind that none of them were legal cases.
 * Juniper Woods wondered which type of pepper to grow in her garden next, and after some consideration decided to go for red ones.
 * Gaspen Payne was asked about the dark age of the law. He was not bothered by the notion of getting a guilty verdict by any means necessary. However, his bravado quickly dissipated once he learned that Edgeworth was looking to give him a review, and ran away again.
 * Jinxie Tenma reported to her father that people had been calling for him to appear as Tenma Taro, as well as asking for a match between Tenma Taro and the Amazing Nine-Tails. As Damian Tenma pondered over how he could possibly fight himself, Jinxie suggested that Justice take over as the new Amazing Nine-Tails.
 * Phineas Filch claimed to have taken over as alderman of Nine-Tails Vale, but ran away after the police approached him for trespassing.
 * Robin Newman reaffirmed her decision to become a prosecutor instead of an artist, and was preparing to take the bar exam. Hugh O'Conner would be retaking the entrance exam to Themis Legal Academy, in order to prove that he could obtain a perfect 100% on his own merits. Newman yelled that their dreams and Woods' would live on forever.
 * Myriam Scuttlebutt was annoyed that her new-found friends did not like the cardboard boxes she had picked out for them. She was pleased that the trial had brought attention and junior students to the journalist club, though their write-up about how she had cried at her graduation rehearsal unnerved her.
 * Klavier Gavin was full of praise for Woods' performance during the school festival, and expressed interest in participating in a trial with her as the judge.
 * Pearl was disheartened to find the office muddled and untidy so soon after her clean-up efforts. She became determined to clean up the attitudes of the others in preparation for a visit by Maya Fey after the latter finished her training.
 * Yuri Cosmos continued to be full of passion and self-importance, preparing for the upcoming HAT-3 launch, despite being demoted to Assistant Director.
 * Ponco and Clonco would be going to the moon with the HAT-3 rocket. Ponco mused about whether which lunar features Athena and Metis would be interested in. Clonco, on the other hand, missed Aura Blackquill terribly.
 * Solomon Starbuck was determined to make it to the moon for Clay Terran and himself. He was confident about not giving up, thanks to his lawyers. However, he became nervous when he thought about space having no air and being cold.
 * Simon Blackquill appeared at the Wright Anything Agency, intending to ask one of the lawyers to help defend his sister. He met someone who was looking for Athena Cykes for the sake of his or her arrested father. Blackquill expressed interest in seeing him in court.
 * Miles Edgeworth told Payne that he was looking forward to the latter's next salary assessment. He said that, in the wake of the overturn of Blackquill's conviction, much of the corruption in the prosecutor's office had been brought to light. Edgeworth felt that he now owed Wright even more favors, but he was sure that he would be able to repay Wright in due time.

The Adventure of the Unspeakable Story

 * Sherlock Holmes ended up buying a mountain's worth of music boxes from all over Europe, with the papers saying that he uses them to solve cases. He noted that they've been selling like hot cakes.
 * Iris Watson had been working on her new novel all night to finish before the deadline. Luckily, Holmes tried to make breakfast for her, but believed she'd end up getting sandy toast and muddy coffee, missing the wonderful Japanese breakfasts Susato made her.
 * Taketsuchi Auchi declared Sanmon Sonohigurashi's testimony a complete contradiction. The latter objected to this statement, asking if his koban let itself be stolen, but Taizou Uzukumaru pleaded his innocence, saying his son Koroumaru believes in him. The judge politely told them he would rather not have the Supreme Court be involved with this fight.
 * Satoru Hosonaga decided to infiltrate the Steamship Alicare, and remain a sailor after sending Nikomina Borschevic to Shanghai. He ended up picking up the very suspicious Sōseki Natsume. Natsume was enraged that holding a mere kitten that Wagahai had was an offense.
 * Hart Vortex stated that scientific investigations are the symbol of a new era for the police. He compared his ideal world of law and order to one hundred clock gears moving together without deviation. He had to cut his speech short, citing that he only had two minutes and thirty-seven seconds until his next meeting.
 * Tobias Gregson ended up making another appearance in the newest issue of the Strand Magazine. He stated he could already hear the cheers from the pub when he speaks his line "Rather good, for an amateur." He stated he must look ever upwards to Iris.
 * John Garrideb has been meeting with Joan Garrideb every day since her arrest. Since he's been using the stairs so much, his legs have started to regain their strength. He tried out being a maid for himself, but was baffled when no one realized it was him.
 * Rola O'Malley was excited that her husband, Patrick O'Malley returned to her thanks to Barok van Zieks. Pat found himself picking up small changes on paroles more than anything else, stating that his duty is to protect London and make Rola happy. The two held each other in a loving embrace.
 * Gina Lestrade had to stay in prison for a while, but doesn't seem to mind, as Iris comes to play with her every day. She states that Iris always has a Holmes story or two ready to tell her, making her think that investigating crimes might be fun.
 * Robert Crogley decided that he had no regrets about taking the path that he did, but Nemmy Tinpillar and Tully Tinpillar tell him to take it easy and that they should bring back their milk business.
 * Susato Mikotoba says she will never forget the time she spent in London with Naruhodō, Holmes and Iris, understanding that life consists of farewells and meetings. She promised that one day, she will return, and hopes that Naruhodō will keep her in his memories until then.

Turnabout Revolution

 * Trucy put on a show with Mr. Hat, who admitted to missing Apollo as they shared a rivalry. Trucy resolved to visit Apollo in Khura'in.
 * Inspired by Apollo, Ahlbi Ur'gaid decided to focus his efforts in developing Khura'in's tourism industry.
 * Edgeworth personally congratulated Skye on achieving her dream of becoming a forensic scientist. Skye admitted that Nahyuta had requested her presence in Khura'in to assist in more investigations. Edgeworth suggested that she rise to the challenge, which Skye accepted, determined to aid Apollo in his efforts.
 * Much to Betty de Famme's annoyance, Apollo's reveal of the secret behind the "teleportation" trick meant that both she and Bonny de Famme were out of a job. Bonny suggested they accept Trucy's offer to join the Wright Anything Agency, ticking Betty off as it reminded her of her rivalry with Trucy.
 * Beh'leeb Inmee gave birth to a healthy baby boy named Faitah, whom she paralleled with Khura'in's new revolutionary era. She expressed hope that Tahrust and Dhurke would watch over them. Datz Are'bal assumed his Defiant Dragons pose, intending to teach it to Faitah as a sign of manliness, which Beh'leeb laughingly rejected.
 * Athena Cykes' workload at the office doubled due to Apollo's absence. She expressed determination to become a lawyer worthy of Blackquill's respect, despite secretly worrying that she might not be up to the task.
 * To the annoyance of Simon Blackquill, Bucky Whet delivered his order of noodles in a drunken state. As Whet suffered nausea once again, Blackquill mused on the difficulty of finding good help.
 * Uendo Toneido decided to work harder at his rakugo, creating a new story based on Taifu Toneido's murder. His split personalities intended for this to make up for tampering the crime scene, and also to provide the fourth personality, Owen, training as well.
 * Armie Buff prepared herself for a new life outside of her "siege defense". Notably, the university where her father worked at invited her to go on a dig. She hoped to find a forgotten civilization and name it in her father's honor. She also planned on visiting Khura'in on another dig to see if Apollo was slacking off.
 * Maya returned to Kurain Village, determined to revolutionize her hometown now that she is the Master. Pearl hoped that the plans included a new shopping mall where she could buy new clothes, but conceded that it was not a priority.
 * Rayfa Padma Khura'in requested Amara for a "new Nayna", now that Amara had revealed her true identity. Amara Sigatar Khura'in mused that Rayfa had been rather demanding of her when she played the role of Nayna, suggesting that few would be willing to serve said role. Rayfa admitted that she intended to make up for acting spoiled, to which Amara requested for one of her shoulder rubs.
 * Much to Nahyuta Sahdmadhi’s consternation, Rayfa began referring to him as "Braid Head", unaware that she was embarrassed to refer to him as her elder brother. Disturbed by her animosity, Nahyuta decided to consult Apollo on the matter.
 * Phoenix met up with an unseen Thalassa Gramarye, presenting her the photo of her former-husband Jove Justice, Apollo's deceased biological father. He suggested to her that they tell Apollo and Trucy the truth behind their shared parentage, now they had grown into capable adults in their own right, and she agreed.

The Resolve of Naruhodō Ryūnosuke

 * Sherlock Holmes keeps getting bugged about his stunt at the last trial, so he wants to travel somewhere far away. He was thinking about Japan.
 * Iris decided it doesn't matter who her real father is. As far as she's concerned, Holmes is her papa.
 * Barok van Zieks has decided to let go of Klimt’s ghost for good, and move on like his “foreign friend” told him to.
 * Gina Lestrade
 * Tobias Gregson
 * Taketsuchi Auchi, Sōseki Natsume, Haori Murasame, Satoru Hosonaga
 * Maria Goulloyne visits her mother, Courtney Sithe
 * Benjamin Dobinbough was invited back to England by van Zieks, and the latter said he’d give the former a tour.
 * Connette Rozaic
 * Everyday Mittlemont, Marco di Gicho, Maurice de Quilco, Anna Mittlemont
