Very enjoyable, well done. However, since the fan translation's names aren't official I'd probably say you should use his Japanese name.

Point taken. Did that with the game title, should have done  that with the song title too.
And thanks!

God GK2 is officially next on my list of games to play I can't believe I never even finished the second case. I remember this theme being my favorite that I had heard up to where I stopped playing though.

BLASPHEMY. YOU MUST FINISH IT.
The links are fixed now, btw.

Anyone who finishes GK2 and doesn't think that Sebastian (or Godot) is the best character in the entire series doesn't appreciate the humanity that Ace Attorney installs in its characters

I had this absolutely crazy idea today. I just don't spend enough time arranging anymore. So I'm going to start posting one (or two) arrangement(s) per week, starting next week. Right now I'm thinking about updating Monday nights.
My goal will be to keep this up the entire summer, even when on vacation.
And if it doesn't work, I can just delete this post

If you do that, I'm just going to have to learn how to play some of your stuff

And you thought it wouldn't happen!

Nice arrangement (Morphongentic Sorrow).A couple of things I noticed.
1) Would be awesome if you could incorporate the melody line from measure 1-8 in some way, don't know if it's possible however.
2) measures 1-8 is a bit tricky to preform because if you want a good staccato sound in the RH and use the pedal you'll have to use half-pedal or just small pedaling on each note. Because if you try playing it with the full-pedal it will not give a staccato like feeling I feel. What I was thinking is if you could notate that somehow, maybe with spiccato i the RH instead of staccato, ignoring the pedal in the first 8 measures might also be an idea to consider.
3) At measure 16, I think it would look better if the LH notes(in the RH staff) are beamed downwards, and maybe the RH D is is stemed upwards.
4) measure 29-30: some en-harmonic spelling, I'm quite sure it's just some small modulation to Db-major, use all flats instead of sharps.

I did consider that, but left it out for the sake of playability.

I guess I put it there meaning "use as needed," but idk if it makes sense to have a "Con Pedal" 8 measures in, as you usually see something like this only at the beginning of a piece.

Totally. Will do.

I just now realized that the PDF has a one measure system. I am certain that wasn't there earlier.

edit: all fixed and files updated

2) hmm y; If you want to leave out the pedal for the first 8 measures, it isn't any strange by writing "senza pedal" in the beginning, and at measure 9 write "con pedal". So the first 8 measures are played without pedal, but the rest of the song is played with pedal. Or maybe keep just "con ped" throughout the piece and the performer will have to adjust the pedal as much as he/she pleases.

Did it.
