This review assumes you've read the first book, Ao Oni. If you haven't, be aware that I include major spoilers for that book. Ao Oni: Vengeance takes place only a week after the events of the first book. Shun is the only one who remembers what happened. He has completely stopped going to school, in...
Content warning for the book: suicidal ideation, gory descriptions of severed body parts, on-page bullying. Shun, Hiroshi, Takuro, Mika, Anna, and Takeshi are all students at the same middle school. Takuro is one of the most popular kids at school. He's also a bully who may have been involved in a ...
If you've played the games, you'll probably quite enjoy this foray into crazy cases with Phoenix Wright and Co. If you haven't, you're likely to be confused by the fourth volume in the series, at least, given it does very little in terms of introductions for the characters, but an earlier volume mig...
I could make this the shortest review in the history of me writing book reviews. If you liked the Phoenix Wright serial manga (not the books of short comics), you'll like this. If you like Miles and Gumshoe from the games, you'll like this. If you just want mystery manga, it's still entertaining, bu...
A great end to this series - the wrapup of a trial in the death of an eating champion followed by the curious case of the tengu. These comics really felt like the games, a feeling helped by a character who appeared earlier in the series returning in the last case. Ms. Von Karma also makes an appeara...
Edgeworth has had his own game (two in Japan) and now he gets the manga treatment. Original mysteries that fit the tone of Investigations perfectly, with decent art and, especially, good characterization of the regulars. Kay Faraday the (improbable) teenaged sidekick from Investigations, is nowhere ...
This seems to be the end of the Ace Attorney manga, or at least it's all that's been published so far. I can always hope for more. The tone and characterization are close enough that fans won't be disappointed. I've also been pretty pleased with the art, since it actually looks like the characters.
There's just one case in this volume, and it's completed by the last page. It's a pretty interesting mystery involving psychics. There's a neat little reference to the Apollo Justice game (Phoenix a pianist? Never!) that I really liked. Also, Franziska prosecutes the case, and Edgeworth shows up kin...
Volume 2 still feels very like playing the game. There are two cases here: the end of the Spiderman case from the previous volume, and a complete case involving costumed characters. Both feature Edgeworth as prosecutor, which was pretty much what I'd been waiting for. I love that it feels so true to...
As an Ace Attorney fan from the English release of the first game, I think the best praise I can give this manga is that it feels like one of the games. It hits the right tone with the characters (for the most part). It even starts with Phoenix defending Larry in a murder trial prosecuted by Payne. ...
