@@Mike-zp2co If the real Bobby's death was public, then wouldn't the phantom stealing his identity right after that got announced make authorities suspicious of him?
It's funny, none of us met Detective Bobby Fulbright in person, but we all know what his personality was like and that he trusted justice until his last moments. Rests in peace, fantastic detective we never met.
The twist depressed me so much. I wish the Phantom took the identity of someone else. I loved Fulbright so much and I was so upset to find out that not only was he dead, but we never actually met him!
I literally freak out by this because i just got strarbuck not guilty and I'm like wtf how does this make sens Then I'm reminded this is a phoniex wright game
Considering how the Phantom tried to pose (both psychologically and physically) as his characters in a precise and perfect way, I think it's safe to say that the real Bobby Fulbright must've been one cool dude. Fulbright actually is one of my favourite characters in the series (prob top 3) and the plot twist really hurt. Good job, Dual Destinies. Good job. Onward to Spirit of Justice!
literally like, when i was playing the cosmic turnabout i said to my friend who played dd before me "okay you know what he was annoying at first but fulbright’s sweet i like him"... needless to say i regretted saying that later
I'd have to say Dual Destinies took a slightly dark turn with the phantom. He posed as Bobby, who's body was unidentified at the time because of the immense damage done to his body. I mean, I don't remember if it was ever disclosed or not, but what was the cause of the real Fulbright's death? Did the phantom kill him, but he was never found guilty of it? Was it an accident? or did someone else murder him? Another game has already come out but I really can't stop pondering on that question.
Zem Zem I replayed monstrous turnabout, and here's something interesting; Jinxie screams at Fulbright and calls him a ghost... What's another word for ghost? Phantom. And what is Fulbright? Dead.
There are a lot of mysteries about the real Fulbright, the only things we know for sure are that he was a cheerful detective (we know this because the Phantom perfectly poses as people, like Starbuck and Means, so we know the way the phantom acted as Fulbright was how Fulbright was) and that he died one year before the events of DD. Here’s my thoughts on the rest of the matters: I think the Phantom killed the real Fulbright because to pose as someone dead, you’d have to know IF they’re dead (duh) because what’s the point in posing as someone who is alive if you’re trying to steal their identity. One thing I’m confused about though, did the real Bobby Fulbright want to rehabilitate Simon( the Phantom talks about trying to rehabilitate him) ? Because Fulbright died one year before the events of DD, while Blackquill was thrown into jail 7 years before DD, meaning Bobby Fulbright could’ve found out about SB before Dual Destinies, this would make a lot of sense though, think about it like this, if Bobby wanted to bring SB back into society, what’s the first thing he’d do? Try to find Simon innocent of the crime he didn’t commit. Which would mean investigating the crime scene (he is a detective), and if Bobby found out about the Phantom during his investigation , they would surely be found out, so the Phantom would have to kill him so he wouldn’t reveal anything That’s only my theory though
@@millicentwood549 Same. I don't care if the Fulbright we knew was a fake, he felt like the real deal and I'd let him alternate cases with Skye and Gummy in a heartbeat.
If I'm being honest, part of me kinda feels sorry for the phantom. He doesn't have a self anymore. He just exists as nothing more than a mind with no identity or spirit. He isn't even human, at this point.
Yeaaah, let's just remember that because of this guy, a great Detective of Los Angeles got murdered, and many terrorist attempts with bombs were made; there's nothing to feel sorry about him.
@@HashiNuke If I'm not wrong canonically the reason why he was such a good spy and assassin was that he had a mental illness that left him with almost no self at all, barely qualifying as conscious or even sentient, and as time went on his condition worsened even more until finally he was quite literally nobody and was just imitations of other people
@@theshermantanker7043 I dont think it said anywhere in the cannon that he had a mental illness. Rather i think it was implied that the reason he had no emotions was that he forgot his true self after pretending to be other people for so long. And this led to his lack of emotions.
Yes the breakdown is haunting but DEFINITELY not as scary as Dahlia. Dahlia's breakdown is much more ominous, and slowly takes time to make you shit your pants
I like how at the end, no one gives a flying fuck that a sniper assassin just shot him. They just a little scared. If I was in there I would be miles away in seconds.
I almost got a heart attack when that happened and the judge was just like „well, this is the first time there was a sniper in the courtroom.“ HOW ARE YOU NOT SCARED?
@@mafuuya02 buddy, in the first case of the game Ted tonate made him think there was a bomb that would destroy the entire court house and he hid under his wooden desk, he does stuff like this on the regular
@@RyosukeTakahashiRX7 What do you mean by "nothing vital was hit"? Dude doesn't have a gunshot anywhere on his body that we can see, which means he got shot in the head.
@@masterblaster2678 Did you even play the game? The conclusion of the case was that he got arrested and is now in prison. Hell, you could just fucking read the comment below mine. Or just look here: aceattorney.fandom.com/wiki/Phantom "They were then shot, though not fatally, by an unknown sniper who quickly vanished, leaving the phantom unmasked on the courtroom floor, albeit with their face concealed by shadow."
When Athena did the psychological analysis and "Bobby" just had... nothing, even when he said his family was kidnapped, I got a shiver down my spine holy shit. Cold. Empty.
Yeah, he is so good at replicating personalities, that he identifies as that personality until he no longer needs to, and jumps to another. Among all those personalities, his own was lost, and now he can't remember which one he actually was. Kinda chilling.
Fun fact: Spoilers ... ... ... ... As of Dual Destinies, Manfred Von Karmas plan has backfired spectacularly. He trained Miles to become a ruthless prosecutor who would do anything to get a guilty verdict and forge evidence, far from the defence attorney Gregory Edgeworth wanted him to be. However, Edgeworth is now chief prosecutor, and can influence the law - something defence attorneys cannot do... and Edgeworth is working to get rid of the dark age of the law, which is Von Karmas legacy...
@@yobin3711 I agree with my man Ganon. The Dark Age of the Law was when the public realized how horrible the law system was. A horribleness that Von Karma had a serious role to play in. He had a perfect winning streak for 50 years. We only know of one innocent person that he forced to confess to a crime. Imagine countless "culprits" he indirectly killed. Kristoph accidentally helped to expose to the public that their system was flawed and being taken advantage of.
Actually, bear with me here: the Dark Age would rather be the legacy of Von Karma's entire LINEAGE. I refuse to believe that Manfred wasn't groomed the same way he tried to groom Edgeworth. It would only make sense that the whole bloody family tree has been raised like that, at each generation.
That face in the end was his true face, but because he lived for so long as other people, he lost his own self, leaving only the silhouette of a head visible. A shadow
@@silverflight01 More like they just didn't want to reveal who the phantom was. They wanted it to remain a mystery. We don't even know if the phantom is male too, they probably wanted that hidden.

Although there have been plenty of fan theories of who he could be...Hope this helped :)
This dude was the 2th breakdown in this game were they just have an existencial breakdown. (First one was ted. he convinsed himself that the fake bomb was real out of desperation.)
I theorize that The Phantom is Shih-na an agent from AAI:ME because she pretended to be Calisto Yew , a defense attorney in the same game. She probably broke out of prison, created more identities for herself, went through a lot experiments in the Phantom organization which causes her to forget her original self and commit crimes. She forgot her true face and got shot by Shelly De Killer to keep the Phantom organization a secret. I could be totally wrong, but it's just a theory based on the events of the AA games.
but there's some differences between Phantom and Shih-na(Calisto Yew) for one Phantom replaces the person he killed to the point that he forgot his own self while Calisto only made an identity, secondly Calisto names herself "The Yatagarasu" cause she's the main face of Yatagarasu so she might have an actual name and there could be a plot twist that she's also an orphan and that orphanage is the same Orphanage where Knightley and Simon Keyes came from
OBJECTION There a contradiction in that statement Look here during the phantom breakdown he switched multiple face and one of them is jinxie tenma who a short teenagers (Desk slam and pointing cling) It would be inconsistent that phantom would pose someone shorter than him
This scene is oddly reminiscing of the death of the T1000 in Terminator 2. The same movement while he's struggling in lava, the same shift between multiples personalities... It would not surprise me if it was a reference.
1. They were not in the courtroom, the roof had been blown off so they shot from outside 2. It's never said 3. Probably not, I think they mentioned something like that after this breakdown
I really wish we had a chance to meet to real Bobby Fulbright in the game series somewhere. Like, in a previous game, only to learn he died between games. That would have been really cool. Also wish the phantom had a flashback of when he killed Fulbright
@@Yuxkta shelly shot franziska von karma on the right shoulder (reference to his father) to prevent any prosecutors on the engarde case. Apparently he only uses it to incapitate or however you spell it
This man has been going through disguise after disguise for years, posing as a new person. He's so used to wearing the identity of another person that his own has just…faded. He's forgotten himself. Even when every last mask is off and he falls to the ground, his face is still blacked out. Is his real self even there anymore?
(0:53~1:06) Does anyone notice that these masks correspond to witnesses or defendants who perjured themselves or took the fall for others in earlier chapters?
I do wish the sniper would had succeded in killing the Phantom, even better if the bullet shattered their head so their face would be unrecognizable. It would fit with the theme of not having an identity and a "true" face. Still, one of the creepiest breakdowns in the series, and one of the most interesting villains imo, although they should have had more foreshadowing throughout the game.
Something i like to think is that the phantom is the ultimate mix of ethan hunt and the first (from buffy) He is a spy with many gadget who can change his face and who does impossible things to get his job done. And he is an antagonist without real face who take the one of a dead person thorough the game. He always adopt the personnality of the person he copies like he was the person but without being them. Finally he is described by other as being evil incarnate.
@@fridge9514 although it's true, remember in Miles Edgeworth spinoff that he actually went close combat and almost killed Horsely Knight if it wasn't for Rook stopping him
She probably could in a future game. The only two requirements to channel a spirit are the spirit’s name (which is public knowledge) and what the spirit looked like when they were alive (which the phantom would’ve had to copy in perfect detail as part of the disguise), so all the conditions are in place for Maya to channel Bobby Fulbright if she so chooses. As for how Bobby Fulbright in Maya’s body might look… I’ll just leave that one up to your imagination. 😝
@@LittleMissRequiem I've seen recently very good concept of Pearl, channeling real Fulbright. That was… weird, for real. Because this looks like real in-game moment
Aww man, we don't even get to see his real face. Also how can he not be able to find his real face, surely there's no way he'd have an infinite set of mask on. It'd make more sense if he had real shape shifting powers.
Okay I can believe in a world of Spirit Channeling, Magical Psychic Locks, Exorcisms performed with Logic, Said exorcism being done after two dead beings borrow other bodies to argue with each other, wrist bands that make you see lies, a robot that can literally see emotion and a dance that can see the last memories of the dead without anything being connected to the dead physically, and Tyrannical Prosecutors who change the law as the case goes. I can believe that, sure. But a shape shifter? I’m gonna just assume Phantom had so many masks on, they became hard or impossible to take off, and eventually he forgot his own face.
@@faultf4 I think your point is... That the powers are performed with the help of certain objects (example: a bracelet, a "magatama", etc) but yeah, shapeshifting is... eh, let's just say it's dumb and kinda impossible without any help of devices. Plus, it's shown that he wears masks so... Yeah, your point holds water.
I just completed the Cosmic Turnabout.. and I was on the Turnabout future...... But but but after seeeeeing this I got fucking sad... This was soo much spoilers..... Shit God damnit.. why did I press on it.. shit.. shiiiiiiiiiiiit.
I think the phantom is matt engarde (if that is his name) the one that gets a wine glass out of nowhere how I think this is the case is because at 0:05 it’s the same position he was in before
we might know the motive for clay terrans death, but we still don’t see the motive for athena’s mother, that’s my only gripe besides not seeing the killers true identity, i wonder what the phantoms motive for metis cykes was tho
Blackquill got a voice recording of the Phantom and he enlisted Metis Cykes's help to analyze it. The Phantom found out and broke into her lab, but he didn't find it. He killed her to silence her anyway.
There was a Bobby. The real one. He probably trusted in justice like no man ever did before. RIP Bobby Fulbright

It would be inconsistent that phantom would pose someone shorter than him
@@jrickducking6685 True lol
This scene is oddly reminiscing of the death of the T1000 in Terminator 2. The same movement while he's struggling in lava, the same shift between multiples personalities... It would not surprise me if it was a reference.
*Bass guitar*
"He's a phantom"
IT'S DANNY PHANTOM
What I want to know is:
1. How did the sniper get in the court room?
2. Who's the sniper?
3. Was the sniper ever caught?
1. They were not in the courtroom, the roof had been blown off so they shot from outside
2. It's never said
3. Probably not, I think they mentioned something like that after this breakdown
well whoever is that sniper i'm just gonna assume that sniper was trying to hunt The Phantom as well
The Phantom survived, so at least we know it wasn't de Killer. He NEVER misses.
In Justice, we trust!!
*Injustice, we trust!!!*
I'd personally like to believe that Shelly De Killer is the one who shot The Phantom
THE PHYSICS WHEN THEY GOT SHOT 😭😭😭😭😭
Rip my dear and real fullbright
Ikr... It's really sad
At least they spoke true. There WAS assasins nearby.
Some people also speculated that Shelly De Killer is the shooter.....
Of course, that one was a theory....
@@BDTXIII
A game theory
Thanks for reading
One of them should've been Scuttlebutt's box.
Just for laughs.
Say what you want about Dual Destinies, but Fulbright made for a great twist villain
Man! This guy is like the Tsumugi Shirogane of Ace Attorney!
Now that i think about it, that's really accurate!
Agreed!!
Gotta admit, he looks kinda good in Jinxie Tenma's face.
Rest in Pieces, Bobby Fauxbright
I really wish we had a chance to meet to real Bobby Fulbright in the game series somewhere. Like, in a previous game, only to learn he died between games. That would have been really cool. Also wish the phantom had a flashback of when he killed Fulbright
I think the one who shot was... Shelly De Killer.
And he failed?
Shame.
iirc Shelly dislikes using guns. He always gets up close and personal with his victims(I think he stated that in Investigations 2)
@@Yuxkta shelly shot franziska von karma on the right shoulder (reference to his father) to prevent any prosecutors on the engarde case. Apparently he only uses it to incapitate or however you spell it
This man has been going through disguise after disguise for years, posing as a new person. He's so used to wearing the identity of another person that his own has just…faded. He's forgotten himself.
Even when every last mask is off and he falls to the ground, his face is still blacked out. Is his real self even there anymore?
I kinda figured it’d be him since I know they didn’t bring him back for Spirit of Justice but damn that was a fun trial
(0:53~1:06) Does anyone notice that these masks correspond to witnesses or defendants who perjured themselves or took the fall for others in earlier chapters?
On 3D its looks so freaky
I do wish the sniper would had succeded in killing the Phantom, even better if the bullet shattered their head so their face would be unrecognizable. It would fit with the theme of not having an identity and a "true" face. Still, one of the creepiest breakdowns in the series, and one of the most interesting villains imo, although they should have had more foreshadowing throughout the game.
In the japanese version, the sniper actually killed the phantom
At least show us the bullet traveling
Something i like to think is that the phantom is the ultimate mix of ethan hunt and the first (from buffy)
He is a spy with many gadget who can change his face and who does impossible things to get his job done.
And he is an antagonist without real face who take the one of a dead person thorough the game. He always adopt the personnality of the person he copies like he was the person but without being them. Finally he is described by other as being evil incarnate.
I CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE WHO RELISED THE T1000 DEATH REFRENCE RIGHT
Reminds me of the death of the T-1000.
Easily my favorite sequence in the whole series (at least maybe until I play SoJ we'll see)
The fact that his first faces after Phoenix are of all the other culprits you’ve fought in the previous trials
what if "the phantom" is Matt Engarde after getting an innocent verdict, and shelley the killer finally catches up to him during the trial
Matt never got an acquittal to begin with tf
That would be so cool lol
my gosh, this breakdown is terrifying. freaked me out the first time i saw it!
Damn...
And i don't think we will ever know the Phantom or who hired 'im.
What happened to the real Bobby FullBright?
he is dead :(
Cause of death: ???
@@jeremeezuniga2668 It was not revealed :(
He got oofed
He died 1 year before DD’s story.
Anyone else belive that the assassin who shot Bobby was shelly De killer?
I know there's no evidence, but i wouldn't be surprised if it was true.
i kinda doubt it, since so far Shelly kills using a knife and he never uses a gun
@@kishi7479 it was never stated what kinda weapons he preferred specifically
@@fridge9514 although it's true, remember in Miles Edgeworth spinoff that he actually went close combat and almost killed Horsely Knight if it wasn't for Rook stopping him
@@kishi7479 alright then
Me at 3am:
Bruh this human being was probably tortured so fucking much to a point forgot it identity damn
This game is DARK
What if Maya channeled Bobby though?
She probably could in a future game. The only two requirements to channel a spirit are the spirit’s name (which is public knowledge) and what the spirit looked like when they were alive (which the phantom would’ve had to copy in perfect detail as part of the disguise), so all the conditions are in place for Maya to channel Bobby Fulbright if she so chooses.
As for how Bobby Fulbright in Maya’s body might look… I’ll just leave that one up to your imagination. 😝
@@LittleMissRequiem I've seen recently very good concept of Pearl, channeling real Fulbright. That was… weird, for real.
Because this looks like real in-game moment
I thought the phantom was actually tomate since he did the explosion things, so when I saw tomate's face, I thought I was right 💀
When they all pointed, i cried. This is incorrect use of the law
Aww man, we don't even get to see his real face. Also how can he not be able to find his real face, surely there's no way he'd have an infinite set of mask on. It'd make more sense if he had real shape shifting powers.
Or, perhaps that the word "masks" is indeed an allusion to his shape-shifting powers.
Okay I can believe in a world of Spirit Channeling, Magical Psychic Locks, Exorcisms performed with Logic, Said exorcism being done after two dead beings borrow other bodies to argue with each other, wrist bands that make you see lies, a robot that can literally see emotion and a dance that can see the last memories of the dead without anything being connected to the dead physically, and Tyrannical Prosecutors who change the law as the case goes. I can believe that, sure.
But a shape shifter? I’m gonna just assume Phantom had so many masks on, they became hard or impossible to take off, and eventually he forgot his own face.
@@faultf4 I think your point is... That the powers are performed with the help of certain objects (example: a bracelet, a "magatama", etc) but yeah, shapeshifting is... eh, let's just say it's dumb and kinda impossible without any help of devices. Plus, it's shown that he wears masks so... Yeah, your point holds water.
Maybe he had facial surgery?
you gotta admit, good snipe
But what WAS his true face!?
Bobby names from my older cousin
I just completed the Cosmic Turnabout.. and I was on the Turnabout future...... But but but after seeeeeing this I got fucking sad... This was soo much spoilers..... Shit God damnit.. why did I press on it.. shit.. shiiiiiiiiiiiit.
this is lowkey terrifying
This is like, so Game of Thrones lol
Scared Phoneix? is actually a bit scary
Why do I think Bobby is actually Engarde from the second game?
He has a different chin
Killers havinf identity crisis? Huh i'll take it
Who thought phoenix is trialed
At 2x speed it looks like he is just doing a cringy dance
Francesco De gregorio cringy tiktok dance😂
W h y
for a game about founding contradictions this comment section is more contradictory than any of old windbags testimonies
Lmao
Well, that was horrifying
I think the phantom is matt engarde (if that is his name) the one that gets a wine glass out of nowhere how I think this is the case is because at 0:05 it’s the same position he was in before
Nope. Matt died long ago.
Matt is probably dead but it's an interesting theory since the sniper could be de'killer
Matt Engarde probably wouldn't go outside
Maybe he put so many masks on to hide from De Killer? Who knows?
Maybe he put so many masks on to hide from De Killer? Who knows?
we might know the motive for clay terrans death, but we still don’t see the motive for athena’s mother, that’s my only gripe besides not seeing the killers true identity, i wonder what the phantoms motive for metis cykes was tho
Blackquill got a voice recording of the Phantom and he enlisted Metis Cykes's help to analyze it. The Phantom found out and broke into her lab, but he didn't find it. He killed her to silence her anyway.
Is this an enhanced port?
What phone did you use and didn't get any lag wat
FuLbRiGhT nOOoOoOooOoOooOoOo!
I actually am sort of confused
