Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! This episode we're taking one last detour, this time in Lupin the 3rd, which is maybe not a direct inspiration on Ace Attorney in the traditional sense, but certainly is in the cultural mix (remember Mask☆DeMasque?). We talk about several episodes from season 1 of the original anime and debate which one of us is which member of the crew (we can't ALL be Jigen!), while also getting into discussions on the episode directors (have you ever heard of this Miyazaki guy?). How many more parenthetical remarks can I fit into this description (we'll find out!)? This is like a nice visit to one of our favorite pals, so we get wacky and generally have a really weird (positive) energy this episode. Dive in!
