As usual, the devs manage to balance the whiteknuckle legal thriller of the main plot with some of the funniest side activities in gaming.Įver the detective, Yagami needs to use his private eye skills to complete missions, both within and outside the main plot.

It's a little 'School Of Rock meets The Raid', and it's bound to be laugh-out-loud hilarious, as will the other, non-school-related sub-quests. He assists a variety of students with their problems, undoubtedly helping them learn something about themselves while also learning from the kids. There he takes part in minigames such as dancing and robotics in order to complete School Story sub-quests. Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio regularly drafts in seasoned Japanese crime writers to tell compelling, legitimate narratives that can be tense and emotional rollercoaster rides, ensuring its titles offer some of the most mature storytelling of any video games around.Īnd yet Yagami is also the kind of guy who does flips on a skateboard, dresses up in comical disguises, and this time around even infiltrates a school in Yokohama. As a former lawyer, Yagami's own beliefs will be called into question, as well as what the right path is for pursuing true justice.

Of course, things spiral out of control, and Yagami and Kaito end up tangled in a conspiracy that delves deep into the way justice is served in Japan (something Ace Attorney fans might be familiar with). Naturally, she calls upon Yagami to help reveal the truth behind the simultaneous incidents Ehara was involved with, as well as the previous murder of Ehara's son. This comes as a surprise to his defence attorney Saori Shirosaki (returning from the first game), who believes the incidents are connected, and the original investigation is fishy. Having been sentenced for a crime happening at the same time as this new murder, he's made himself bulletproof, and publicly shown up the court system. Accusing the horrifically tortured victim of killing his son, he claims nothing was ever done about it, and that the legal system is a joke. Between the Yokohama Liumang and a mysterious "handyman" of Yokohama, Jin Kuwana, Yagami is thrust into the fight of his life to see justice prevail.As police officer Akihiro Ehara takes the stand and is sentenced to six months of penal service for groping a woman on a train, he reveals gleefully to the court that he knows about an undiscovered body in Yokohama, the corpse of someone who was murdered at the same time as the incident he's being convicted of.

As the cases begin to converge, a shocking pattern of abuse and deception comes into focus, and Yagami finds himself in a winding conspiracy leading to the most nefarious parts of the Japanese underworld. To stay on campus and investigate further, Yagami takes on the role of a club advisor for the school’s Mystery Research Club in hopes of finding connnections to Mikoshiba’s past and to the recent bullying incidents. During the sentencing, he reveals the identity of a body found in an abandoned building in Yokohama: Hiro Mikoshiba, who bullied Ehara’s son to suicide four years ago. Meanwhile, his former coworkers from Genda Law Office, defense lawyers Saori Shirosaki and Issei Hoshino have just wrapped up the case of one Akihiro Ehara, found guilty of groping a woman on a crowded train. Still partnered with former yakuza turned detective Masaharu Kaito, a new case takes him to investigate the bullying occuring at a Yokohama high school, Seiryo High.
