By my side

So for yesterday's Maya May analysis post, I talked about how in the Japanese version of Ace Attorney, Maya likes miso ramen instead of burgers.

I think burgers is a fun localization! Ramen is considered a kind of "fast food" in Japan, and burgers is fun and casual in a similar way to ramen. Plus, burgers and ramen alike have roots in other cuisines, German and Chinese respectively.

Howeverrrrrr as someone born and raised in Southern California and spent most of her adulthood in Los Angeles, I often enjoy the thought, "What if the food Maya enjoyed in the English localization were tacos?" I made this drawing a while ago but never thought to post it.

The image of Phoenix and Maya having lunch at a taco truck or a mom 'n pop taqueria during an investigation is just too vivid in my head lol

Enjoy!!!

i love going to the wikipedia pages of subjects my favorite media references and seeing that they appear on the "in popular culture" part

we're all used to the phenomenon of getting older than kids media characters and going "woah they were only thirteen what the hell they shouldn't have been saving the world" but ace attorney presents a unique experience where you hit 27 and suddenly you're older than the mentor-figure character and you realize that tragically you're not on track to reshaped the entire legal system by 32

simon blackquill being a ridiculous and inexplicably british otaku is my favourite localisation decision. it’s so fucking funny. this man uses japanese honorifics in the courtroom and also says “bloody hell”unironically. what is going on.
