Ace Attorney Wiki

The closing credits occur at the end of every Ace Attorney game. The main purpose of the closing credits sequence is to show the names and roles of the crew of people who contributed to each game's development. The Ace Attorney series in particular has a pattern of scenes and lines included in each game.

Structure[]

The credits sequence itself alternates between showing a collection of credits on a black background (except in Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney where a desk of photos is used as a backdrop), and scenes showing various characters from throughout the game. In earlier games, these characters are implied to be talking to the protagonist or an anonymous individual, but later titles simply have them speaking about their plans after the events of the game. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All includes a post-credits scene. In the original Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy and Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, the sequence simply ends with the Capcom logo before returning to the title screen. The game remembers the fact that it has been completed, and text can be skipped accordingly on subsequent plays.

Every game since Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth includes a post-credits scene, after which the word "End" fades into and out of the corner of a black screen. This screen usually appears at the end of every episode, but for the final episode, the screen occurs after the post-credits scene. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies introduces a second portion showing scenes from the game in black and white. Since Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, completing the game unlocks content such as an immediately viewable collection of the anime sequences in the game.

List of closing credits scenes[]

These scenes are shown from the perspective of someone who finds various characters from the game and asks them about Phoenix Wright.

  • At the Criminal Affairs Department, Dick Gumshoe says that Miles Edgeworth came to wish the detective a happy new year, using the same awkward cheer from after the trial.
  • At the Gourd Lake Entrance, Larry Butz reveals that he has not seen Wright around lately. He adds that he has started working at a cheese shop to earn some more money for his alleged girlfriend Missy, who had gone to Hawaii.
  • In a courtroom, Winston Payne falsely claims that he taught the young lawyer everything that he knows.
  • The Bellboy at the Gatewater Hotel reveals that he has taken over the hotel's management.
  • At Grossberg Law Offices, Marvin Grossberg merely answers that he has not seen Wright lately, remarking, "'Ahh... the days of my youth... like the scent of fresh lemon', you see."
  • At the Studio - main gate, Wendy Oldbag does not remember Wright, and proceeded to ramble about Jack Hammer's movies being released on DVD.
  • In the dressing room at Global Studios, Will Powers states that the Pink Princess became a big hit, and that he owes Wright a great deal. He is also staying out of the public's eye, as he doesn't want to disappoint the kids by showing his face.
  • At the Employee Area, Penny Nichols talks about a letter from Maya Fey, who apparently caught a cold standing under a waterfall. Not having the time to visit, Penny sent Maya some Pink Princess cards, which are not being sold in Maya's village. Penny wonders what kind of place it is.
  • Cody Hackins is at the Studio One entrance. Not remembering Wright, he decides to discuss the time he saw the actor playing the Pink Princess while sneaking around Global Studios. Describing Will Powers as a "dog", he laments how much of a shock the experience was for him.
  • Lotta Hart is at the Public Beach, where she is training to become a paranormal photographer. She explains that the picture that took after Edgeworth's trial has a ghost in it, namely the ghost of Mia Fey.
  • In the Nintendo DS version of the game, Wright yells, "Hold it!" and unlocks Rise from the Ashes in the episode selection menu.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All[]

De killer card

The "Wright" by Maya on Shelly de Killer's card.

In the first four scenes and the ninth scene, Wright seems to travel to Gatewater Imperial Hotel, the Criminal Affairs Department, and the detention center to catch up with some of the other main characters.

  • At the Hotel Lobby, Maya Fey thanks Wright, saying that she knew that he would find the letter that she had hidden in the wine cellar. She then comments on how she has escaped death three times now.
  • At Viola Hall, Pearl Fey tells Wright that she heard that Gatewater Imperial Hotel is a popular choice for honeymooners, so she booked a reservation for him and Maya.
  • In the hallway, Gumshoe informs Wright that he has been reinstated into the police force. Edgeworth apparently told the chief, "Letting that one go is bad for all of society."
  • At Criminal Affairs, Maggey Byrde tells Wright that she has resigned from the force to take up a job as a waitress.
  • At the Hotti Clinic, "Director Hotti" reminisces about Franziska von Karma, who would whip him even if he looked at her. He does not seem to have minded this at all.
  • At the Big Top, Max Galactica and Regina Berry discuss taking the Berry Big Circus on a world tour, starting with Zimbabwe. While Berry wonders if there are castles made of cake and talking rabbits in Zimbabwe, Max quips that talking rabbits would still not laugh at Moe's jokes.
  • Moe and Benjamin Woodman are practicing in the cafeteria, with the latter mentioning a "Hallelujah Chorus" act.
  • Oldbag is still searching Engarde's hotel room using Gumshoe's bug sweeper, to no avail. She does not mind since Edgeworth requested it, but she begins to suspect that she has been forgotten, causing her to go on one of her rants.
  • In the visitor's room, Adrian Andrews thanks Wright for what he, Edgeworth, and von Karma did to help her. She shows a letter from von Karma, saying she should consult her once she gets out.
  • The transceiver in Courtroom No. 3 activates again. On the other line, Shelly de Killer announces that he will take a leave of absence, citing difficulties. After stating that anyone needing his services should check his homepage, he disconnects and the transceiver self-destructs.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Trials and Tribulations[]

Sketchy

Artwork by "Laurice Deauxnim".

  • 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, as long as she doesn't get locked up or captured again.
  • Pearl is at the Main Gate of Hazakura Temple. She is excited that Wright went through the Special Course for Maya, calling him her cousin's "knight in shining armor." She's also heard of an extra-special Ultra Course and might surprise Wright and Maya by secretly reserving it for them.
  • At Trés Bien, Gumshoe announces that Byrde has bought him a new trenchcoat. Byrde prefers the look of the old dirty coat, to which Gumshoe assures her, "In the name of love, a man will soil himself silly!"
  • At the Main Exhibition Hall, Andrews thanks Wright for helping to make the Treasures of Kurain exhibit a success. She adds that von Karma taught her how to use a whip and told her to show what she has learned to Wright sometime.
  • At Mask☆DeMasque's Hideout, 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 wonders if they are the worst criminals of them all.
  • At Tender Lender, Viola Cadaverini thanks Wright for "exterminating" Furio Tigre. She adds that she has returned the $500,000 to Tigre, along with a tea set with a special tea Viola made herself.
  • At Vitamin Square, Victor Kudo recalls when his grandchildren threw him a birthday party, making him cry, as he had believed that everyone considered him useless.
  • Lisa Basil has hired a new programmer to replace Glen Elg at Blue Screens, Inc. She says that she knew that they would align perfectly as soon as she heard the name "Adam Mada."
  • Reporters catch up with Bikini in the Main Hall of Hazakura Temple, where she comments on the increase in reporters and money coming to visit since the murder. She hopes that Iris will soon come back.
  • During one of Wright's visits to the detention center, Iris discusses the previous visit with Wright's friends. Wright constantly had his eyes on her. Unfortunately for him, however, Pearl noticed this and slapped Wright, giving him a nosebleed.
  • Wendy Oldbag returns from her vacation to the Security Room at KB Security, 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 Edgeworth.
  • At Heavenly Hall, Butz says that he has found his calling in art, and is planning to take the art world by storm with 'Franzy's Whip Lash Splash'.

Rise from the Ashes[]

Sistersaww

Young Ema and Lana at the police department entrance.

The episode Rise from the Ashes has its own closing credits separately from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney due to being developed years after the original game for the Nintendo DS release. The credit screens use animations from the fingerprint powder minigame rather than simply having a black backdrop. Most of the character scenes play out like an epilogue where each character narrates what has happened to them after the case's resolution, though there are three scenes in which Wright visits Jake Marshall, Angel Starr, and Ema Skye. Additionally, tapping the touchscreen during a cutscene and then blowing it away will reveal drawings of the characters.

  • At the detention center, Lana Skye reveals that she has sent her sister Ema to Europe to live with a friend of hers, who works as a coroner. Though Lana's days at the prosecutor's office were surely over, she hoped that she would be able to make it back into the field someday, and perhaps even work on cases with Ema.
  • At Criminal Affairs, Gumshoe reveals that the force decided to overlook his unauthorized access to the Chief's office, because penalizing him any further would have been worse than firing him.
  • Mike Meekins was demoted to security guard in charge of the police department entrance and take care of Billy the cactus at the guard station. He says that he is still determined to become a detective like Gumshoe one day.
  • The dancing Blue Badger panel at the police department entrance is shown in the moments before it stops moving and collapses.
  • At the detention center, Jake Marshall is eating a steak lunch given to him by Angel Starr. He is thankful that Ema is happy again, and asks to ensure that the cacti in the guard station are watered.
  • In the underground parking lot, Angel Starr gives Wright a farewell gift: her new lunch, the "Wright Way Lunch", with a bitter-tasting top half but sweet-tasting lower half. The "turnabout" theme has proven popular among students undergoing exams.
  • In a courtroom, the judge claims to remember what Wright said after the trial, though it turns out that he has forgotten the lawyer's name and other details about him. In fact, he has forgotten to bring his gavel.
  • Maya is still in training in Kurain Village. Though she misses Wright and his "objections", she is determined to soldier on with her training until she is a proper spirit medium. This is the only time that Kurain Village appears in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney.
  • The bellboy brings Edgeworth his usual tea, but finds his office deserted, with only a letter left behind. This is an allusion to Edgeworth's disappearance, a plot point in Justice For All.
  • Wright catches up with Ema at the train station, where she thanks him for all that he has done for her and Lana. Though she is sad that she and Lana were going to be separated, she will always have a reminder of her inside the book Scientific Investigation: a photo of the two sisters when they were younger.

Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney[]

Ending - Vera's Sketch

Vera's drawing.

The character scenes in Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney end as photographs that fall onto a wooden desk, which provides the backdrop for the credit roll. The transition from credits to character scenes occurs via the wipe.

  • At the Wright Anything Agency, Trucy Wright says that she is glad that Apollo Justice has decided to stay at the agency, adding that it's like she had found a long-lost brother, in an example of dramatic irony. Having inherited the rights to Magnifi Gramarye's magic, she intends to carry on her late grandfather's legacy.
  • At Prosecutor Gavin's office, Klavier Gavin, realizing how much the last trial had "rocked," has decided to disband the Gavinners in order to focus on his legal career. Though this news has much heartbreak worldwide, Gavin feels that Justice and Trucy are the real stars now, and was looking forward to their next "jam session."
  • In his hospital bed at the Hickfield Clinic, Phoenix Wright realizes that he has been a piano player longer than he has been a lawyer. Now that the case that had gotten him disbarred had finally been solved, he entertained the possibility of taking piano lessons, or perhaps retaking the bar exam to get his attorney's badge back.
  • In the backstage hallway, Ema Skye considers making golden Snackoos before admitting that the preservatives required wouldn't be 100% safe.
  • Olga Orly seems 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 have started a pastry business at their mansion selling muffins with kanji characters on them that read "root" and "people".
  • Wocky Kitaki has made his own pastry to help out, namely muffins called "O.G. Crackers."
  • At Eldoon's house, Guy Eldoon has devised a new noodle recipe containing just a large hunk of salt. He considers it the logical conclusion to the extreme saltiness for which his noodles are known.
  • At People Park, Wesley Stickler, who has previously been mocked as "Wesley Stinkler" and "Wesley Stickyhands," has received a new nickname, "Wesley Sicko," While it was obviously meant negatively, Stickler is convinced that it is a reference to his curing the sickness of curiosity.
  • At Sunshine Coliseum, Thalassa Gramarye thanks Wright for all that he has done, and looks to her newly found children as inspiration for her next song.
  • At Solitary Cell 13, Spark Brushel has gone back on the beat. He still does not have his scoop, but his confidence is not shaken.
  • In Drew Studio, Vera Misham says that she has taken up painting originals. She would have to look to the outside for inspiration, but she is not afraid anymore, having met good people from the outside.
Vera Misham
The door is open. The world is waiting. Thank you.

DGS2 ending CG

Photo of Sholmes, Iris, Susato, Naruhodo, and Asogi.

  • Herlock Sholmes keeps getting telegrams about his stunt at the last trial, so he wants to vacation somewhere far away. He considers stuffing himself in a closet to get to Japan.
  • Iris Wilson writes a thank you letter to Sholmes causing him to cry. She also gives him a chemical that would turn his hair bright red, but he passed on using it despite her working hard on it.
  • Barok van Zieks reflects on his departure from the courtroom five years prior due to his "Reaper of the Bailey" moniker, and how the badge he wears was originally his brother's. He has finally decided to let go of Klint's ghost for good and move on like his "foreign friend" told him to.
  • Gina Lestrade reads the last will and testament of Tobias Gregson, and she understands that he was protecting her. She and Toby vow to protect the peace of London, but she wishes she could have thanked Gregson in person.
  • Tobias Gregson's last moments in London are shown in a flashback, where he speaks fondly of Lestrade, and leaves her his "detective spirit," knowing that he may depart from this world during his final mission.
  • Taketsuchi Auchi attempts to press charges against Satoru Hosonaga for infiltrating Seishiro Jigoku's office, but Soseki Natsume declares that a ruling would be impossible due to Jigoku's arrest in London. Auchi then rails against Rei Membami's presence in the courtroom, to which she counters that Susato was making a name for herself in the Old Bailey. Hosonaga remarks that he probably should have hired a normal lawyer.
  • Maria Gorey visits her mother, Courtney Sithe, in jail. They discuss how the Japanese handle the dead by cutting them into three pieces. Gorey wants to try it on her mother but Sithe objects, as she obviously is not dead yet. Gorey says she is glad about that.
  • Albert Harebrayne was invited back to England by van Zieks, with the latter saying he would give the former a tour. However, he cannot afford the bill for the hotel he is staying in, and he wishes he could teleport or at least that van Zieks would finish his work and save him.
  • Esmeralda Tusspells reveals that she actually knew that Genshin Asogi was buried alive when she found his shot corpse, but true to her family creed she made a deal with Stronghart; she would refrain from testifying about what she saw that night and in return Stronghart would allow her to create the most accurate wax sculpture possible of the graveyard.
  • Daley Vigil is in jail still identifying himself as his "Gossip" persona, along with his new cellmates Peppino de Rossi and Fabien de Rousseau. de Rossi says that he will sell red spaghetti, but de Rousseau objects to the others' ideas. Evie Vigil is proud of her husband for making friends, and Daley has decided to start a new life with the two redheads once they are released.
  • Kazuma Asogi reflects on his occupational crisis when he first got his chance to study abroad. He had originally wanted Ryunosuke Naruhodo to come with him so that Naruhodo could defend him, should Asogi have wound up as the defendant instead. Nonetheless, he is now content with his new path as a prosecutor and hopes to meet Naruhodo again in court.
  • While brewing tea for Ryunosuke Naruhodo on the cruise ship, Susato Mikotoba talks about the law office they will open up in Japan. She is proud that Naruhodo has become a seasoned attorney worthy of praise from Herlock Sholmes himself.
