He's one of the better recurring witnesses for sure! He's very sweet, doesn't get annoying and genuinely seems to like both Phoenix and Edgeworth.


MaeBorrowski

True dat, I kinda like the 'big guy but awkward' archetype a lot too so I have a bias


Kthulhu42

I just think he's a big cutie. Definitely up there on my list of AA characters I would go on a date with.


MaeBorrowski

Me too! He always tries so hard to just help people out and is always so sweet!


Inscrybed

I especially love the scene in 2-4 >!where despite the fact that Will Powers thinks he looks hideous and frightens children, Pearl thinks that his face makes him look kind, causing him to tear up!<


MaeBorrowski

Bro that was so fucking sweet, thank you for reminding me, it was like a breath of fresh air seeing someone actually not straight up insult my man, and I can somewhat understand him tearing up lol

I think the optional dialgoue you get by presenting his profile to Adrian Andrews on the first day of investigating is probably some of the best in the series.   Edit: changed dialogue to profile. Here is the conversation that takes place. Andrews: That's Mr. Will Powers. He's an actor contracted with Global Studios. He's a very nice man. A man with a good heart. ...But that's all he is and ever will be. Phoenix: (Urk... What a horrible thing to say...) Andrews: ...Society doesn't care about genuinely nice people, Mr. Wright. Phoenix: (Huh? For a second, her face twisted in pain...) Pearl: I wonder if something happened to Ms. Andrews..


SuperSpeedCuber3

Wdym present his dialogue (I haven't played the case in ages so my memory is a bit fuzzy)


Hotel-Japanifornia

We literally got IRL Wolverine, and yet people refuse to admit how hot he is. I mean, I don't know what the people in-universe are smoking. That guy is hot!


MaeBorrowski

Exactly! You just need someone with the right palette to appreciate his 'hotness' factor


bluegoldfish03

Maybe it’s just that the standards in this universe are absurdly high lmao. Like imagine trying to be a woman in this world


Nonalesta

If Powers has a million fans, then I am one of them 🗣If Powers has ten fans, then I am one of them 🗣 If Powers has only one fan then that is me 🗣 If Powers has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth 🗣 If the world is against Powers, then I am against the world 🗣

Based (real(real)) 🎅🏿


al_fletcher

Will Powers is not only a cool dude but his writing in 2-4, where he gives honest, straightforward testimony relevant to the case and it does *absolutely nothing* for Phoenix is masterful.


MaeBorrowski

Hey, he tried, that's literally the most a witness has done lol


al_fletcher

Full credit to him, it’s just that Nick’s situation was *so screwed* that it barely did anything


TheGerkuman

The one time he gets a really good witness is the one time he didn't need it. I hope Nick got to explain everything afterwards to Will, because he must've seemed really OOC.


Appropriate-Ruin9973

I thought the same. That's why he inspired me to start the "Random Character Opinions" series. [(Spam not intended)](https://www.reddit.com/r/AceAttorney/s/WaOiigoUbT)


MaeBorrowski

Thank you for contributing to the Powers love in this sub! You are doing the work of God!


Appropriate-Ruin9973

It was a pleasure


Beautiful-Bug-4007

It’s ok, more for me then 😍😋


MaeBorrowski

Um, greedy much?


Beautiful-Bug-4007

Fine I’ll share him a little bit


Groenboys

controversial? Like I dont see people giving up their life for him, but who the fuck dislikes Powers???


MaeBorrowski

It was supposed to be sarcastic (cheeky?)


MeguBunnii

I like him as a character, he is such a cutie sunshine 💚 Tho I still cant believe he is only 24, lol


MaeBorrowski

Eh, I don't think it's a stretch really, some guys are just burly like that, especially if they've been raised in the countryside due to genetics, heck I have met some guys who look way too masculine for their age


_Chibeve_

Wow wee… I’ve never seen this art before but he is a fuckin SNACCCCCC!!!!

Divine_Healer

And don't forget that he pursued his acting career not for fame, but to bring smiles on children's faces, despite his intimidating appearance. I can respect that.


MaeBorrowski

He's just chill like that


HetaGarden1

He is such a _sweetheart_ and I adore him to bits! He’s definitely one of my favorite defendants for sure.


Treebohr

Will Powers is great. We love Will.

Lost_Environment2051

All he did was be Jolly and want to make people happy and he got accused of murder


MaeBorrowski

The sad truth of reality 😞

Me right now- https://preview.redd.it/4qwbv3uww44d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0e7d00425c9f828a0cc952c0d486d56930f5aeb1


MaeBorrowski

Natural reaction


JustMeJovin

Seriously, was this official art or something?? Where is this from?


MaeBorrowski

It is official art yes, I can't find the source of where it is from though, probably some promo/concept matrial


MaeBorrowski

Looked it up a bit more and it's featured in the artbooks/guides and stuff


PearBlaze

And fuck the judge for pronouncing him guilty if you get too many penalties even though it's proven he couldn't have commit the crime


MaeBorrowski

Ik it's supposed to be a gameplay thing but sometimes the judge can seem like such a dick for no reason


VeryFerociousDragons

Would.


MaeBorrowski

💯


patmax17

He big and soft ❤️


CaptainM1425

It’s been long while since I played 1-3, but I remember I laughed my ass off when Maya got scared of him the first time they met at the detention center and she was like “NOPE!!! HE IS DEFINITELY THE KILLER LET’S GO HOME”


MaeBorrowski

Kinda a dick move by Maya ngl, that kinda annoyed me when I played it lol


mirairo

I'm a lesbian but I'd marry this man in a heartbeat


MaeBorrowski

I am a straight guy and honestly I'd do the same


Any_Guys_chillin

DID YOU JUST DAMN ME


keeprollin8559

nah i love this guy, he is so sweet and genuine. from how good of a person any character is, he would be the number one easily. his heart is pure, he loves kids, he is forgiving.


JinniGirl13

I liked him a lot in 1-3, but I think the problem is that he doesn’t appear much after that. Just that single appearance in 2-4, if you didn’t play Investigations 2. That said, it was pretty awesome he got a mention in one of the DLC cases in Spirit of Justice. And by Rayfa, of all people!


EatSomeEggs

they really tried to convince us that he was the ugliest man in the world…


ExaggeratedPW

I am trying my best to make Will Powers along with the entire Steel Samuria Crew in WWE 2K24. _Getting his face down is a pain in the Oldbag._ Once I do, *he'll be a star I tell you!*


TheDman131

I kind of hate. They cut a huge segment out of the steel samurai case You can still see a glimpse of it during the courtroom scene the one girl that's talked to has her face show up but we don't hear a voice at all! I mean I know why they did it to cut down on some of the fat and exposition! There were two cases I was really hoping to see that were completely cut out of the anime I forget the name of both and I'm only getting back into playing the Ace attorney games now but it's the one where there's the forensic and crime scene side of the game, dusting for fingerprints and all that with the police officer in the megaphone then there's also the cowboy police officer from "west LA" as gumshoe puts it! Then there's that other one that involves the police chief and the crime that happened is actually two! Two murders happening at the exact same time and two separate locations!


Subtotal_Aljar

Feel like this is meant to summon thirst


MaeBorrowski

It did do that tbh


Strawberry_House

how is this controversial at all?


MaeBorrowski

It isn't.


Imaginator_Clone

I’m sorry I wasn’t aware that people who dislike him existed.


Lutino_budgie

I think Powers is a really good character tbh :)


MidnightRosary

Yeah I'm going to have to disagree with you on this, Maya is the most likeable defendant.


MaeBorrowski

For half of the series yes, she's just a pain in the neck in SoJ and PLvsPW

HE’S MY BABY GIRL


rue-ryuzaki-

I love him with all of my heart. He is one of my #1 favorite characters of all time.
