[SPOILERS FOR DUAL DESTINIES]

I loved it, too! I didn't start with the highest hopes (I really didn't like AJ because... several reasons), but I was pleasantly surprised. I really liked it, liked the new characters (ATHENA!) and loved the way recurring characters were handled (Apollo got a backstory! And goals! And a subplot of his own!).
And yeah, I don't even ship P/E, but the shipping potential is blatant. XD Edgeworth went to Trucy's magic show and that's so cute I just can't.

Franziska should have been there just so that she could meet Aura. XD
I missed Maya a bit, too, but I can see why they couldn't just cram her in. I really liked her letter, though, and Pearl's mention that she's coming to visit soon after the DLC case. It was a nice touch.

As for the music, for me it's a tie between Blackquill's theme and the Phantom's.
I also really liked the twist at the end. I was caught completely by surprise. I didn't even LIKE Fulbright while playing, but after finding out the truth I felt so, so bad for him. Playing the extra case while knowing it was kind of weird. It was all "aww, look at that cutie-- oh wait, he's dead and that's actually the Phantom-- BUT LOOK AT THAT CUTIE!"

Aww, Maya's letter. I had been hoping there was a chance she would make an appearance, but that letter just made me miss her more. Gumshoe also. For most of the game I was all, "Where's Gumshoe. Why isn't the detective Gumshoe. Why isn't the detective Ema." Of course, at the end, I thought, "MAYBE I'M GLAD IT WASN'T GUMSHOE OR EMA."

The funny thing about that was, I guessed at Fulbright's FIRST APPEARANCE that he was a bad guy.* But then when we found out what the deal was, I got really sad about him too. Because, if the real Fulbright was really like that? :(

It is my headcanon that Franziska and Simon become best friends after Dual Destinies, so I hope she would meet Aura. She would LOVE Aura.

*It was because he had peaked lapels. I once wrote an academic paper on the semiotics of peaked lapels and now I see it everywhere; the upshot is that peaked lapels in visual media tend to indicate villains. This is played extremely straight in Ace Attorney.

Yeah, it was for the best that it wasn't Gumshoe. XD Gumshoe is one of the reasons why I didn't really like Fulbright. I mean, we already had a bumbling detective, why should we need a new one that only seemed 100% more annoying?
Of course I saw why later. Oh yes I did.

Also, the way you realized "Fulbright" was the big bad is pretty interesting and hilarious at the same time. XD And yeah, I felt bad for him. I'm pretty sure he really WAS the way the Phantom depicted him (he had to be accurate to steal his identity without anyone noticing anything odd), and that makes everything even sadder. He didn't deserve to die.
As for the Phantom, he's just as sad. Really. One of the most pitiful characters in the whole series.

I APPROVE OF THAT HEADCANON.
