Summary
Join us as Ben, Dessy, Tiago, and Rose cover the inspirations behind Ace Attorney! Today we've got a special guest, an expert in shin honkaku mysteries: MinovskyArticle! He graciously agreed to help break down this influential novel by Alice Arisugawa that helped inspired many other modern mystery writers, including our favorite Ace Attorney directors Shu Takumi and Takeshi Yamazaki. We chat about the fun character interactions, the strange island that revolves around puzzles, and what the solution to it all could be! And we also engage in some classic UAR diversions, although less than usual, because I (Ben) threatened everyone to be on their best behavior. Maybe. :) Who's the REAL mastermind? Find out as we break down "The Moai Island Puzzle!"
