„Turnabout Ceremony“ Character Relationship Diagram

Episode 1 – The destroyed statue incident begins! Get testimonies about this incident in this special mission!

---

They say the statue was fine the night of the incident.
Since Central Park was closed right up until the ceremony started, the only person who could have gotten close to the statue and destroyed it would’ve been Larry who emerged from under the unveiling cloth when the incident was discovered.

 

• 

  Testimony: Loud Noise

  I guess it was about 2:00 a.m. on July 1— early in the morning on the day of the ceremony.
  I was fast asleep when suddenly, I got woken up by a loud noise.
  It sounded like it was coming from the square where the fountain is, but I didn’t see anything strange when I looked out of the window.

• 

  Saikyo Witness Dan

  One of the security guards assigned to the
  Central Park fountain. He was on duty on the
  night when the incident took place.
  He maintains that he ran to the scene after
  hearing a loud noise at the time of the crime,
  but didn’t notice anything unusual.

  The Central Park statue was designed in his image, though it might be hard to tell, seeing as the damage to the statue has caused it to lose its head.

Episode 2 – Deepening suspicions! Decipher the hints hidden in the Login Bonus and the EX Grand Prix!

Defendant Larry pleads not guilty, but there’s testimony that an orange figure was seen flying through the air on the night of the incident.
This description matches that of Larry’s, who was wearing an orange jacket.

• 

  Flying Orange Figure

  First there was a loud noise, and then I saw some guy in orange flying through the sky!
  Look, I drew a picture!

• 

  Inquiry: Whereabouts

  So I went to Central Park in the morning, and when I got there, the cage was empty!
  I asked the guy in the hut if he saw anything, but he said he was asleep when it happened…Anyway, I didn’t do it!

• 

  An Incident Uncovered

  The crowd’s cheers turned to astonished gasps when the mayor pulled the cloth from the statue.
  The statue’s head had fallen to the ground, and clinging desperately to the ruined monument was a man trying his hardest to fix it.
  After seeing that, anyone would assume he was guilty…but not me.
  I believe that Larry, my client, is innocent.

  Poor Business Decision

  I’m not sure if Larry was really the best choice for so much responsibility…

 

Episode 3 – The Crucial Moment! The Login Bonus will reveal the moment of the crime!

There are whispers that demon gatherings are held late at night in Central Park.
Trying to get pictures for her demon gathering special feature for spirit medium industry magazine “Oh! Cult!”, Lotta Hart set up a camera by the fountain.
As it happens, that camera caught the crucial moment of the statue incident.

•

  This photo was taken automatically at 2:00 a.m., July 1.
  It shows the moment the statue was destroyed, but while there’s a visible figure in the shot, it’s difficult to identify them.

Courtroom Record 3: The Demon Gathering

• 

  Article: Demon Gathering

  This article ran in the June 28 edition of a
  spirit medium industry magazine. It discusses a
  gathering of demons that took place in Central
  Park. Allegedly, a giant demon and a horned
  demon met late in the night in front of the
  statue of Mayor Cody, due to be unveiled to
  the public on July 1. They performed some
  sinister rite, which caused the area to then
  be subjected to a highly-localized freak
  cold snap.

• 

  Wendy Oldbag

  A security guard assigned to the Central Park fountain.
  She claims to have seen demons gathering in front of the statue at the fountain late at night on June 18.

• 

  Chatterbox

  It took about three hours for the reporter who covered the demon gathering for „Oh! Cult!“ to interview the witness, and it was a one-sided conversation.
  He learned that she saw the demons on the night of June 18—information that could have been learned in about five seconds…

 

Episode 4 – The truth is revealed! Search for evidence from the incident in the Special Mission and Chronicles!

Larry’s lawyer Phoenix Wright, with the help of his assistant Maya Fey and others, will investigate the incident.
Will Phoenix be able to successfully exonerate Larry…?!
The courtroom battle against Miles Edgeworth, the prosecutor who asserts Larry is guilty, starts now!

• 

  Fruitless Investigation

  I never thought I’d find myself defending Larry like this again, but I’ll do everything I can to help him—he says he’s innocent, and I believe him.
  Still, Maya’s… „C’mon, Nick! Let’s go!“
  She’s trying even harder than usual…
  I wonder what’s up with her.

• 

  Photo of the Scene

  A photo of the scene at the time of the incident.
  The statue of Mayor Cody is daubed in green paint. Its head has fallen to the ground, and the arms have been restored by the defendant, somewhat, using adhesive tape.

• 

  A Likely Motive

  W-w-wait, Cody! Take another look at the article…
  I’m not one of the demons!
  I mean, sure, I was mad the other day, but…
  Uh, I mean, look, it’s not me, pal! Hey!
  Are you listening!?

 

Episode 5 – Larry is innocent? Prove Larry’s alibi through the Login Bonus!

Larry is seemingly on the ropes in the face of Miles Edgeworth’s cross-examination when it’s revealed he has an alibi.
Larry testifies that at the time of the incident at 2:00 a.m. on July 1, he went to eat ramen after work. Larry’s innocence is proven!
Abigail, who has newly drawn the ire of the mayor, is then suggested to be the culprit, but he also has an alibi for that time.

• 

  Ramen for the Road

  What better way to treat yourself after a day
  of work than by having a hot bowl of ramen on
  the way home?
  Miso broth, juicy char siu, perfect noodles
  that aren’t too hard and aren’t too soft…
  the warm feeling of happiness spreading
  through your body when you take your first
  mouthful…
  Nothing beats ramen. Not even burgers.

• 

  Sharing Memories

  „Ha ha! Hey, Roxy, doesn’t he look cute?“
  „Aw, c’mon, Poison, you didn’t have to go that
  far. The boss really loved that car, y’know.“

  a little weakling who bawls his eyes out over
  a car. Say cheese!“

 

Courtroom Record 5: The Blue Orbs and the Demon Hunter

• 

  Blue Orb Article

  This article ran in the June 28 edition of a
  spirit medium industry magazine. It discusses
  mysterious stones called Blue Orbs, which were
  retrieved from the Central Park ruins. Some were
  used in the statue of Mayor Cody scheduled to
  be installed in the same park, with the
  remainder presented to the mayor as a gift.

• 

  Gloria

  A self-proclaimed demon hunter’s agent.
  She suddenly appeared before the mayor and
  offered to introduce him to a hunter who could
  uncover the truth behind the demon gathering
  covered in „Oh! Cult!“.

• 

  Devil Hunter’s Pitch

  It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mayor. Have you
  read this article? Your new statue seems to be
  attracting demons. If you leave things as they
  are, you might find yourself dragged down into
  Hell with them… Hee hee. I can introduce you
  to someone who’ll solve your demon problem.

• 

  Interest in Blue Stones

  I represent one of the top professionals in
  the business, and that means she doesn’t come
  cheap. Hee hee… Although, she did offer to
  cut a deal in exchange for these blue stones.
  What do you say, Mayor?

• 

  Statue’s Eyes

  The blue stones used for the ruined statue’s
  eyes have gone missing…
  Which means that someone must have
  stolen them from the scene.

 

Courtroom Record 6: Dynamo’s Introduction

• 

  Underworld Broker

  Ah, Mr. Larry Butz… We meet at last.
  I hear you’re in need of monsters for the

  Well, I think I’ve got just the thing for you.
  Want to take a look? I promise you’ll like
  what I’ve got in store…

• 

  Dynamo

  The underworld broker from Larry’s testimony.
  It seems that he made the arrangements for the
  Steel Samurai’s opponents, but both his identity
  and subsequent whereabouts are unknown.

• 

  Regenerador

  It might not look special at first, but its
  powers are the real deal. It can regrow its body
  parts, making it impossible to leave lasting
  damage on it! Not even the Steel Samurai’s
  Samurai Spear stands a chance against this
  thing… I guarantee you won’t be disappointed!

• 

  Shadow Devil

  Behold: a towering monstrosity, the dark sheen
  of its gigantic body set off by the blaze of its
  single blood-red eye! Perfect for the role,
  wouldn’t you say? But that’s not all! It can
  disassemble and reassemble itself at will!
  Even if the Steel Samurai lands a crushing
  Samurai Slap, it’ll pull itself back together
  in no time at all.

• 

  Brachydios

  Take a look at this striking fellow! See its
  massive front limbs, protected by that
  glossy ultramarine carapace? See how
  its head juts out like a horn? But the real
  attention-grabber is the green stuff it
  secretes. If you want to see fireworks,
  look no further!

Episode 6 – The real culprit is…? Participate in the EX Grand Prix and find the culprit!

The next to be accused is the person who was interested in the Blue Orbs, Trish.
A similarity in the signatures on the contract reveals that the agent Gloria is Trish in disguise.
However, she insists that although she may have took off with the statue’s eyes after the incident, she wasn’t the one that destroyed the statue.

• 

  Psyche-Lock

  She’s obviously hiding her identity!
  If I can present proof of her relationship
  to Trish, I just might be able to get
  Trish herself to testify!

  an investigation into the gathering of demons.

  introduced to the mayor. She’s still never

  Gloria sets up.

• 

  Midnight Encounter

  I was letting my little buddy drink some water
  at the fountain, just like always. Anyway, he
  got soaking wet, so I dried him off with a
  cloth that had conveniently been left nearby.
  That’s when the blonde girl showed up.
  We talked for a minute, and then she left.

Meanwhile, the formerly missing Brachydios is found in the Central Park forest.
Brachydios was brought to Central Park by Larry, along with Sasquatch and Anteka, to play the villian in the Steel Samurai special show.

  popular superhero. He provided testimony about
  the actors playing the baddies in the special
  show.

• 

  Will Powers‘ Testimony

  I heard it about it from Butz before the
  incident. He said he’d found three „special
  guests“ to be the baddies in the Steel Samurai
  special show. I don’t know what he meant,
  but…whatever he meant, it can’t be good.

• 

  Secretive Delivery

  Yeah, I was the one who organized bringing
  those guys into Central Park. But I did get
  permission from the security guard! Come to
  think of it, he did seem strangely interested
  in them… Not that I can blame him. Those
  guys are something else!

• 

  Open Cage

  A cage that had been left wide open, found
  after the incident. It’s daubed in green paint.
  Only a small number of people know the code.

  …How did that get there?

• 

  Fist Mark on the Head

  The Brachydios that was discovered in the
  Central Park forest. There’s a mark on its head
  that suggests it was punched. But what idiot
  would punch a gigantic, aggressive monster?

 

Courtroom Record 7: The Forensic Survey and the True Nature of the Green Paint

• 

  Forensic Survey

  Seems that Ema, the aspiring forensic
  investigator, is going to find some „scientific
  evidence“ at the scene using her tools of the
  trade. I’m not sure if Luminol is going to help
  us much right now, though…

• 

  Green Paint Examination

  Scientific inquiry has given me the answer!
  That green paint is, in fact…Brachydios mucus!
  And let me tell you, this mucus is incredible
  stuff! Look! It can change color, from orange
  to green! This is the discovery of the century!

Episode 7 – The truth of the incident! Track down the culprit in this campaign!

The culprit is Dan, who was on shift as a security guard at Central Park that night!
Dan who’s goal is to spread the Saikyo groove, thought that if he could defeat Brachydios, he would get more followers. So the night of the incident, he challenged Brachydios.
But a perfect counter sent Dan flying through the air straight into the mayor’s statue, breaking it.

• 

  Tender Lender

  Whaddaya mean you had ZERO income in May!?
  Huh!? You think I got money to lend to someone
  who ain’t got a snowball’s chance in Hell of
  payin‘ it back!? Now scram, and don’t let me
  see your sorry mug again!

• 

  Lazybones

  Devoted to the humble motto of „Live easy, make
  money,“ the rookie security guard spends his
  days lazing around, even while on duty.
  „I’m not lazing around! I’m thinking about

  Provocation Legend

  No matter what I tried, I couldn’t get
  ol‘ Punchy to wake up…so I gave him a
  „little something“ to make him look lively!
  Unfortunately, it worked a little too well…

• 

  Desperate Search

  He was a sorry sight, but still he continued
  his search, running desperately through the
  forest in the dark of night. But there was no
  sign of his target… He must have gotten away!

• 

  Mountains of Stuff

  The messy security guard room. There’s a locker
  for staff use. The locker door is ajar, perhaps
  because of the cardboard boxes jammed inside.

• 

  Saikyo T-Shirt

  A strange T-shirt found in the locker in
  the security guards‘ room. It’s covered in
  bizarre illustrations. There was an absurd
  number of these T-shirts…were they intended
  for sale?
