it’s funny how mia fey always comes across as a wise, calm, confident mentor who knows what she’s doing, when in reality, she is the ultimate ‘bullshit ‘til you make it’ person in the game. that’s her whole technique as a lawyer. that’s what she’s taught phoenix. if phoenix is a masterful bullshitter, mia fey is a god-level bullshitter, so much so that when phoenix is in a bad situation while working on a case and feels like there’s nothing more to do but accept defeat, she comes back from the dead not to give him direct clues that would make solving the case easier, but to tell him ‘no, phoenix, you haven’t given your all yet, man. there’s still so much bullshitting you can do. the judge’s eye isn’t even twitching, dude, there’s still so much time to talk about how the witness didn’t see a tiny scratch on the floor or some shit, go for it’
Miles Edgworth makes a lengthy media analysis post about the subtle but deep-connecting relationship between Steel Samurai and the Evil Magistrate with his non-professional Reddit account, citing scenes in each episodes that validates his stance. And no, his post proclaims, this is not about two men romantically attracted to each other, it’s about trust between partners and becoming a better person because of the other yada yada.
Then some account named @MysticMay0 replied with “Dude, you’re projecting so hard, you’re about to go astral”
