Considering Mia's death was an important element in Maya's rescue in Justice For All's 4th case, I wonder about the butterfly effect this would imply.

[@HostWithTheMost]

She could bond with Edgeworth over Steel Samurai.

[@TVmantitan779]

Godot would also be much nicer because the main reason he hated Pheonix Wright was because he believed that Mia was killed because of Pheonix Wright

[@HornetofHallownest]

@@TVmantitan779He probably would never have become a prosecutor. He also would likely have told Mia of Morgan’s plan to kill Maya as well. There’s a solid chance he’d never have found out about the plan in the first place.

[@lucaseafton9762]

​@@HornetofHallownest I think they ment the de killer and matt enguard trial from the second game not the last one

[@cheseisreal]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@HornetofHallownestThe plan would be wayyy off than what it is in the main game. 1. Godot won't be a prosecutor, therefore he wont eavesdrop this "plan" 2. Morgan wanted the main family DEAD so pearl could be the master. The problem is, the original plan was to kill Maya and only Maya, but with her dead there is still Mia to take over, that wouldn't make sense. 3. Not only is Mia alive, Misty is as well! Godot wouldn't kill Misty while she is channeling Dahlia because he didn't know about the plan, stated above. 4. Maya is dead! Or.. is she? We wouldn't know this because it relies too much on this altered "plan". In the main game, she survived because Godot killed her mother, at that time summoning Dahlia. If it wasn't for Godot, she wouldn't be standing there. But this plan now involves killing TWO people and it is now if Dahlia would be able to pull it off. Or if she said "fuck it we ball" and say no to the plan or ONLY kill mia. Back to square one eh? Mia is dead again

[@eway44]

Can't wait to see what happens in this AU when Godot wakes up!

[@AYZellaa]

Let me put in record here that I can't wait to see it too. let us taste something other than the bitter taste that the death of our dear Mia left in our mouths. like... please!!!

I'd like to see the continuation of this. How would Trials and Tribulations be with Mia alive? Same with reunions.

[@pikachupower0025]

Well Diego Armando might become a prosecutor for some unsettled business with the T&T main Villain (Dahlia Hawthorne) and help find the whereabouts of Misty Fey. But since Mia is alive, he might stay as a defense Attorney

[@MantisFey]

Yeah, my initial plan for a sequel was him being replaced by Franziska, but I think it's a bad idea so i might as well let him stay a prosecutor for a while

[@braveneon8271]

Let Franziska replace Godot at 3-5@@MantisFey

[@sheepishbaton0399]

Alt universe where edgeworths autopsy was actually true

[@cywh1711]

7:05 Well to be fair Mia didn't lose to Edgeworth like that lol. She only "lost" because Terry committed suicide.

[@elderliddle2733]

I’m a law student myself, so yes, she lost. Badly. Think about it. A grown man who wanted to elope with a teenager (bad enough already) commits suicide by poison. The prosecutor can then claim that he did it out of guilt. Remember, Edgeworth was still an asshole at this point. It would be totally in character for him, or even Manfred to do so.

[@potsdam28]

@@elderliddle2733no verdict was declared.

[@potsdam28]

Edgeworth couldn’t lose. It was already established he had a perfect record.

[@Peachrocks5]

@@elderliddle2733 Old comment but the context is important. Terry kills himself because he no longer trusts Dahlia and couldn’t bear the pain of seeing her be what she was accused of. Also the record states no verdict was declared. Neither side won or lost. Edgeworths perfect record still holds because he didn’t actually lose.

[@Peachrocks5]

May not be that case either. She doesn’t specify it’s that case. Chances are she lost to Edgeworth off camera. Honestly I don’t think Mia would mention this to Phoenix unless she had to. It was pretty traumatic for her.

[@JonGamingBoy]

Never thought i see mia quit being the chief of Phoenix wright, i even was surprised by that

[@pikachupower0025]

There should be a sequel with it being Turnabout Goodbye since Turnabout Samurai and Rise from the Ashes has no need in the first game. With that case, Phoenix would need help with knowing about Manfred Von Karma and other things to defeat him. Mia knows about the DL-6 incident and could give help with both victims and informations of Yani Yogi

[@pikachupower0025]

Reasons, Turnabout Samurai would play similar to the original and a bit faster with Mia helping out in the investigations and for Rise from the Ashes, that case would be all her defending. Turnabout Goodbye is the only one that would be something of importance and the other cases from the other games would be Farewell My Turnabout, Turnabout Succession Phoenix case side, and maybe The Rite of Turnabout. The cases in T&T would depend if Diego is a prosecutor or not but also Bridge to the Turnabout might be played differently. Also with the success defending of Zac Gramarye, the UR-1 incident would also be important.

[@fws91]

I would’ve had Mia stay in the office with phoenix but she is taking other cases. Have maya stick around to help phoenix. And if we want have Mia day in jfa case 2. Or have Shelley de killer kill her her via Morgan fey.

[@TVmantitan779]

Heck, in the future, we could even see that Godot would be a defense attorney or less antagonistic towards Pheonix as he would see him as Mia's successor.

[@MantisFey]

Leave in the comments more requests or ideas if you have any! Edit: I just realized the video ended before it should end ( don't read if you didn't see the video yet) It was supposed to say how Phoenix renamed the office to Wright & Co Law offices and started taking cases, he visits Mia once or twice a month

[@Mohammed1000real]

It really would've been a better conclusion

[@SamsonMySamson]

god wouldn't be crueler if this was a what if episode and phoenix is just dreaming all of this.

[@nstheidiot]

suggestion: What if Pheonix Never met Maya Fey?

[@MantisFey]

I'll take it in count ^^

[@Peachrocks5]

It’s interesting because I’m not sure Phoenix would win the trial against Edgeworth because he only looks at the opposite side of the receipt because Mia channeled through Maya told him to because Mia catches the contradiction in White’s story because she knows the lamp could not be there when White claims he was, Phoenix doesn’t seem to know that. However in this case Mia is not dead so she cannot be channeled, therefore Phoenix likely loses. Or at the very least White is not charged with Mia’s assault. Of course it’d be short lived Mia’s testimony would immediately incriminate White and she would review the case and testimony and immediately point out the contradiction Phoenix misses if he tried to bluff his way out. He already looks pretty guilty before that explanation that he placed the wiretap. This still would hit Phoenix’s confidence and also not cause Edgeworth to have such admiration for Phoenix. On top of that Phoenix needs Mia’s help in acquitting Will Powers too. He doesn’t have that option if he even takes that case, assuming that Mia doesn’t help him, which she might if he lost to Edgeworth previously. Might still win without Mia but maybe not. Ironically Mia surviving may end up being worse for many people involved. Edgeworth would likely be found guilty of his charge too. Unless Mia takes this case, which she might. Ema Skye would likely be okay because she comes looking for Mia who she would find and I think she would be able to do exactly what Phoenix did. Still I like Mia, always makes me sad they killed her off so early.

[@valentds]

dahlia: my time has come...

[@RetroNerdyGamer]

Honestly though? It was a fun watch but the way Mia survives is a bit...like bad fanfiction. Wasnt there a thing where someone like Godot says if Wright had been just a bit earlier maybe Mia could have been saved? Idk it seems a bit weird how that part went down I guess

[@JustChill_1031]

I wonder what would've happened if White had tried to kill Makoto or Sai Niijima from Persona 5 Royal?

[@welon17]

You mean she didn't? Because we see her almost every case.

[@MantisFey]

I mean, as an alive person ig bc those're just Maya or Pearls channeling Mia! :D
