Neo Reviews: The turnabout storm series

This...this was amazing. I can't tell you how much I love turnabout storm. Unlike most fan-made content I've seen, Turnabout storm just got better and better. I was puzzled at the start, and tried to figure everything out all the way through to the end. I laughed, and I cried. Even now I'm crying as I write this review out to you guys. You know I've gone through some pretty bad times recently, with stuff IRL, things on the Wiki I frequent, and few other things I'd like to keep private, I haven't had something make me feel this better in a long time. Turnabout Storm is, out all of my two years of going through this fandom, my favorite fan project of all time. I think I have good understanding of fan made projects now, and it's thanks to this that I have that. I think it's no surprise that I give this my one and only 10/10 on this quest to review things. However I want to open a bit more, and after all my job as a reviewer is to discuss my opinions on the subject at hand, isn't it? So let's delve deeper into this master piece.

Most cross-overs I've seen aren't that good. No matter what fandoms are crossed, how they're written, or even who worked on them, I've seen some pretty bad stuff. Sometimes I think that some things could cross with MLP easily but never in all my life did I think that phoenix wright could work like this. I was wrong. The story was enchanting, it drew my in and I couldn't stop watching. I began when part two had been out for quite some time and waited till just not when I finished part five. The episodes never lost their quality and I think they just increased as they moved through the episodes. You can tell that a lot of work and dedication was put into this series. From the voice acting, to the story telling, to the writing. I wouldn't change a thing. No the characters don't sound like their TV counterparts but is that really something we need? The music was put in the right places, the tone was set very clearly and affected me as I watched it. Including cheering loudly when Phoenix said objection. Everything was done right and I love how this turned out.

The artwork did change while they went through the series. At first it was all official art but they also used their own drawings of Phoenix and the judge later down the road, they also did they own art for different scenes in the last two parts. One thing I want to talk about is the cliche here. The story of Trixie's redemption has been the plot of many fanfics and other fan projects. Not only her but another character's redemption story is also brought up in this series and is a classic story for fanfics I've read. Normally I don't ever think of these as good but this series, I can't express how they managed to do these things right. The stories that are used here may be cliche and over-used, but this series somehow makes it not all it appears. There is more to it than that. The characters of Trixie and the other one do have feelings, what is it like for them to go through this? Yes we see how the good guys see it but maybe Trixie isn't a bad guy. Maybe she's just gone through some rough times. This series really made me feel for the characters, for Twilight, for Phoenix, for Trixie, for Rainbow, almost every character made me feel something for them. Even characters with an affinity for hands.

I don't know how much more I can tell without sounding like a prancing fan boy. In fact this review probably already makes me seem like that right now, but you know what? This series deserves these praises. The entire thing blew my mind. The suspense, the awe, the sadness, the humor, all of it was like it was coming out of a real Phoenix Wright game, and maybe that's why I like it so much. Like I said at the begging, this series gets my rating of a 10/10.

I highly recommend the project to any one here. If your a fan of Phoenix Wright, you'll love this. If not, you might still love it. I'm going to post the link to the videos down below but do be cautious. It's a 7+ hour series. I'm also going to mark it as NSFW since the series does have some evidence that is hinted at to be NSFW but they never show you anything except a black picture. I imagine that it's Rainbow Dash biting her hooves but I don't know for sure.

Well then, this is NeoExlucky, Reviewer of ponies, signing off. Have a great evening, everypony.
