honestly before I started playing tgaa, I always envisioned it as an ace attorney game that’s set in the meiji and victorian eras that features sherlock holmes as a side character because it’s the time period and what a fun idea. and I mean that’s definitely not an inaccurate description of the game per se, but it also really undersells just how integral sholmes is to the whole thing.
like the whole game uses the “herlock sholmes” stories as a framing device. ryunosuke and susato literally end up living at 221b in sholmes’ attic. at some point it feels more like shu takumi is writing a holmes story and going “and here are my OCs two law students from japan oh and also holmes and watson’s daughter. I hope you like them :)” and I do. I like them a lot.
