Re: [T][CE] The Broken Turnabout ☆
Congratulations! You have a real underdog story here. Broken really deserved being featured. I really don't know how you can just pick up gold like this and say "This HAS to be done," with such a burning desire, but it really worked out for you.

Re: [T][CE] The Broken Turnabout ☆
Thank you very much for the review, Ferdielance! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I have comments below and, now that I've calmed down properly, I have a few for Enthalpy as well (assuming that responding to a QA review isn't a faux pas of some sort?). I won't include presentational stuff, since you already got that in my PM.

Re: [T][CE] The Broken Turnabout ★
Wow...thank you so much to everyone who helped for, well, all your help! Beta-testers, reviewers, competition hosts, spriters, tutorial writers, the works! This is...this is an honor and I am so grateful to all of you who helped The Broken Turnabout make it here. It is my hope that I've contributed something meaningful, even in the smallest way, to AAO and to the life of anyone who plays Broken, and I hope that I will get the opportunity to do it again. This really is a great community. Thank you all so much for this and for allowing me to be a part of Ace Attorney Online.

Re: [T][CE] The Broken Turnabout ★
Just wanted to say this might be my favorite case on AAO so far. Everyone was in character, and it didn't lean too far into wacky or grimdark territory. Basically, it felt like an actual Ace Attorney case that could have fit right into canon and actually improved some aspects of it (I love you case 4-4, but sometimes you make no sense). Also, Athena. Thank you so much for making Athena exist in this case. I know she's a relatively new character, but she also seems like a prime candidate for being ignored or villainized by the fans (not just on this site, of course).
All in all, great case, and I hope you'll be doing more in the future because that was a blast!

A lot of this probably isn't spoilers, but better safe than sorry!

Re: [T][CE] The Broken Turnabout ★
*WARNING: The spoiler tag below contains a LOT of the case author's thoughts on the case. But the meaning of a work is in the eye of the beholder, and that includes the eye of the author. If you're writing a review or would just rather keep your own thoughts of the case uninfluenced, then feel free to skip this. But if you'd still like to read this, go ahead! Just know that I sort of laid my thoughts on the case out bare, in a sense, but just because I say so that doesn't make it true about The Broken Turnabout.

Re: [T][CE] The Broken Turnabout ★
@clcman: Sorry it took me a while to respond! Life's been slightly hectic on my end the last couple of days, but now that things are calming down a little, I have the time to give this a proper response.
First of all, thank you for your SoC and your thoughts! Reading it led me to think about how things that could be polished in the case (some of which have already been taken care of, since they were quick fixes that I had time to do in the span of a few minutes). I've replied to some of your SoC (some parts have been cut to save space) and to your "Final Thoughts."
